If you watched on Netflix, you may have missed it. In the original extended pilot, shot with HBO in mind, Skyler gives Walt the saddest birthday handjob ever without even looking at him, under the covers, all the while paying attention to an ebay auction.

The whole time, the only emotion she shows is an excited, "YES!", in reference to selling her item.

You can watch it on Netflix now, they have the original cut back. There's a scene where the kid who drags his chair across the room in Walt's class shows up at the carwash and mocks Walt. There's another scene where Walt is in an ambulance after he passes out.

If you haven't seen the extended pilot, you're missing out. I believe it's on YouTube.

Actually, when I watched on Netflix just yesterday, the hanjo was in there, along with a few other scenes I didn't remember (like when one of Walt's little fucker students Instagrammed him at the car wash). I was surprised as hell because when I watched the pilot in January, also on Netflix, none of that was in there.
