Planning - Script - Fourth Draft

FADE IN:


INT. DARK ROOM - NIGHT

A lamp flashes on and reveals a man, SEAN SAUNDERS, slouching in a chair on one side of a table, wearing a hoodie and jeans. The lamp shines directly into his face to reveal bruising and blood coming from his mouth. He slowly opens his eyes. He squints in the light.


DR. BANES

Mr Saunders...

SEAN SAUNDERS lifts his head. He is handcuffed to the chair. At the other end of the table is a second man, DR. BANES, who is leaning back in his chair. His face is partially hidden beneath shadows. He lights a cigarette.

DR. BANES
Is it done, Mr Saunders?

SEAN SAUNDERS

Yeah, it's done.



DR. BANES lifts a cigarette to his mouth. He blows a cloud of smoke before grinning. 


DR. BANES
Your father would be proud.


SEAN SAUNDERS leans forward in his chair sharply. His voice is raised. 

SEAN SAUNDERS
You don't speak about my father. I thought we had a deal.

DR. BANES chuckles gently. He pauses. He pulls out a picture from his blazer pocket and slides it across the table. His silver watch gleams in the light from the lamp.

DR. BANES
I need you to do one more thing.

SEAN SAUNDERS glances at the picture in front of him. He looks up and shakes his head slowly. 


SEAN SAUNDERS
I can't...

DR BANES smiles gently. He mutters under his breath.

DR. BANES
Pity.

DR. BANES reaches over to the lamp. He flicks the switch. The room turns pitch black.

CUT TO:

EXT. GRAVE YARD - NIGHT

DANIEL SEYMOUR'S silhouetted figure walks along a path towards a deserted church yard. He pauses at the entrance and adjusts his watch. He walks through the entrance and into the grave yard, as he does so he glances up at the clock on the church and straightens his tie.
