Breaking Bad Day 1
"What is Chemistry? Chemistry is the study of matter. But I like to think of it" Walt brings out a spray bottle and sprays some liquid over a flame as it changes from blue to green to red. "As the study of change. If you think about it that is life. It is change. It is growth. It is decay. It is transformation! It is...fascinating really." A girl giggles in the background as a male student talks to her. Neither are paying attention to the lecture. "Chad. Is there something wrong with your table?" The male student gets up and intentionally drags his chair noisily over to the original table.
Scene cuts to a car wash. Walter is talking to a customer at the register. He tells her goodbye as his employer comes over.
"He not coming. He says he quit." The employer tells Walt. "I'll run the register."
Walter complains but has no choice. He needs the money too much to quit. Walking off in a huff, he grabs a bucket and a sponge and goes to wash a brand new corvette.
"Hey Mr. White" Chad calls over as he raises his camera to take a picture. "Get the wheels nice and shiny."
Walter Finishes up work and drives home. Coughing loudly on the way. He gets out of the car and approaches the door. Opening it, he is startled as guests shout surprise.
Inside, his wife talks to some of the female guests with her sister. Walt standing somewhat to the side as his brother in law Hank talks to his son and a few other interested guests.
"Now this is a glock 22. That's my daily carry. You can forget the 9 mil. I've seen one of those bounce off a car windshield once. If you're gonna bring a gun." Clears the gun of any bullets and hands it over to Walter Junior. "You've got to bring enough gun. 40 caliber."
"Hank I'm not sure-" Walt starts but is interrupted.
"Hey everyone listen up! Listen up! I want to make a toast." Hank shouts as he brings Walt in close. "Walt. You have a brain the size of Wisconsin. And we're not going to hold that against you. Your heart's in the right place." Grabs the beer from Walt. "To Walt!"
"To Walt!"
Hank looks at the time. "Oh shit. Turn on channel 3."
TV turns on showing a reporter talking to Hank about a recent drug bust. The camera pans over to a large bundle of money and drugs.
"Hank how much money is that?" Walt asks curiously.
"That's...about $700,000. If you ever want to see any action, I can take you on a ride along"
Scene cuts back to the car wash as Walt rolls out a barrel of cleaning chemicals. He coughs twice recognizing Gretchen, his ex-girlfriend from college, paying for the car wash as she gets into her BMW. Her back is turned to him. He wants to say something to her but he's overcome by a coughing fit. She doesn't even notice as he falls over and collapses.
Ambulance sirens.
"This is so embarassing. This is really nothing." Walter says clearing his throat as the paramedic looks at his heart rate and examines his breathing. "It's just some chest bug that's been going around. First my son had it than my wife. It's really nothing."
The paramedic finishes examining his breathing. "Mr. White are you a smoker?"
Cut forward. Walt is sipping a beer outside by his pool. He pulls out his cell phone. "Hey Hank. It's Walt. No no. It's nothing everything's fine. I just wanted to take you up on that offer for the ride along."
Cut forward again.
"Alright bus is clear. We are go." Walter watches from the backseat as Hank and Steve Gomez join a group of armored DEA agents storm the house wearing gas masks. They break into the house to apprehend the suspect as a window opens up with a half naked man escapes from the roof, the woman in the room tosses him down his shirt and he runs off and escapes in his car. Walt watches the scene curiously.
"Pinkman?"
Night time. Pinkman cowers behind a car as Walt is at the top of the driveway.
"It's me. I'm alone." Walt says calmly.
"How'd you find me?"
"Your still in our record system at the High School. This is your aunt's house right?"
"Look I don't know what you're doing here but you better walk away." Pinkman replies.
"Relax. I'm not here to arrest you." Walt tells him.
"Then why are you here?"
"You just lost your partner. Emilio was it? I thought maybe you were looking for a new one."

Day 1 has begun. With 18 alive it takes 10 to lynch.
Sorry for the delay. The other scenes will be less directly based on what happened in the show and shouldn't take as long to write.
