"Tears of Blood"
SCENE 1.EXT. LOCATION: WORK - EVENING
Louise slowly walks out of work, looking at all the cars with her mobile clenched in her hand. She looks at her phone and then calls her Mum.
LOUISE
Hi, are you still picking me up; I've finished work?
LOUISE'S MUM
Sorry, darling I have so much to do, I will not have time to get you; is it okay for you to walk home?
LOUISE
(Sighs)
Yeah, that's fine. See you later!
LOUISE'S MUM
Okay. See you when you get home! Bye, love.
Louise cuts off the phone and carries on walking. She begins to get nervous and looks over her shoulder to make sure that no one is following her.
Louise tries to call her friend but they don't pick up.
LOUISE
(Mumbles)
Fuck sake.
EXT. LOCATION: ALLEYWAY - NIGHT
Louise carried on walking and gets to an alleyway. She hesitates but then begins to walk down the alleyway briskly.
EXT. LOCATION: MAIN ROAD - NIGHT
Louise lets out a big breath as soon as she reaches the main road. She walks on the path and begins to slow her pace.
EXT. LOCATION: THE BRIDGE - NIGHT
Louise then comes off the main road and starts to feel panicky again. She starts to hear noises and begins looking around frantically. She unlocks her phone and tries to call her Mum, but there is no answer. She finds herself at the foot of the bridge. She walks hurriedly under the bridge and begins to hear footsteps. Before she has the chance to turn around, a man disguised in black grabs her. (You only ever see the back of him)
LOUISE
(SCREAMS)
SCENE 2.INT. LOCATION: CAR - NIGHT
The camera shows a mans hand clenched round the steering wheel, but never shows his face. The camera then pans around the whole of the car (360 view). There is no sign of Louise. The camera then focuses on the boot of the car and banging can be heard coming from inside.
The camera then cuts to the inside of the car boot where you then see Louise banging on the door, trying to figure out a way out.
LOUISE
(CRYING)
Let me out!
Please, just let me out!
Louise frantically searches for her mobile but can't find it. She begins to cry in hysterics.
LOUISE
(SHOUTS)
You took my mobile!
You arsehole!
You arsehole!
Louise looks regretful of what she has just said and begins to cry again.
LOUISE
(CRYING)
Ignore what I just said; I didn't mean it!
Can you just let me go?
I won't tell anyone, I promise!
The camera then cuts back to the man inside the car. He turns on the radio and turns it up too loud. He begins tapping on the steering wheel to the beat of the song.
SCENE 3.INT. LOCATION: THE GARAGE - NIGHT
The man gets out of the car and walks to the boot.
MAN
Don't do anything you'll regret!
He slowly lifts the door of the boot, waiting for Louise to react. The boot is finally open. Louise is just lying there with her eyes closed.
MAN
Get out.
Louise continues to lay there, not moving. The man looks at her and she opens her eyes. He goes to pick her up and lift her out of the boot and she kicks him in the stomach in an attempt to escape. He shoves her and she bangs her head on the boot of the car.
MAN
(SHOUTS)
Didn't I tell you not to do something you'll regret?!
The man forces her out of the car and pulls her towards a dark garage. She begins to scream and in order to muffle her cried for help, he covers her mouth with his hand. He opens up the garage and pushes her onto the concrete floor. She starts to cry.
LOUISE
(CRYING)
Please, just let me go!
The man ignores her and kneels down on the floor next to her. He begins to pull her trousers down. Louise tries to stop him by pushing him away. He slaps her round the face and pushes her down to the floor again. He finally gets her trousers and underwear off and persists to rape her. She screams in pain and he punches her in the face. She starts to bleed.
EXT. LOCATION: OUTSIDE THE GARAGE - NIGHT
A girl passes by outside the garage and hears screaming. She looks around worriedly and gets her mobile out. She dials '999'.
CHARLOTTE
(FRANTICALLY)
Hello, Police? I hear screaming.
SCENE 4.INT. LOCATION: POLICE STATION - NEXT DAY
Louise sits in the reception of the police station, staring at the door. Her eyes are pinned wide open, still in shock of what has just happened to her. She starts crying as she gets flashbacks of the events of the previous night. Tears begin to roll down her face and her breathing becomes heavy. The police officer touches her hand. She looks up and begins to cry even harder. She tries to talk but she is shaking so much that nothing comes out.
POLICE INTERVIEWER
(CALMLY)
Are you okay? Would you like a glass of water?
LOUISE
(CRYING AND SHAKING)
Yes please!
The police interviewer reaches for a radio and phones in for another officer to bring a glass of water to the interview room.
POLICE INTERVIEWER
Just take your time to describe the man to me. There's no need to be afraid; we're hear to help.
There is a knock at the door and a police officer comes in carrying a glass of water. Louise looks up slowly and her eyes and body become still and lifeless. The crying and shaking has seized; she was focused and still like a cat creeping on its prey. Louise opens her mouth slowly. The other police officer looks at her in amazement and confusion, wondering what is wrong.
The police officer with the water places the cup on the table, a look of sheer fright in his face.
Louise crunches the water cup in her hand, water spills over the top. She does not take her eyes off the other police officer.
POLICE INTERVIEWER
(CONFUSED)
Louise, what's wrong?
LOUISE
(GASPS)
(FRANTICALLY)
Yo.. Yo... It's you! It was him!
It's him! Get him away! Get him away from me!
