FADE IN:
1 OMITTED 1
EXT. CITY STREET - DAY
JENNIFER HILLS races down from a stoop, a suitcase rolling
along behind her. Even dressed down, this city girl can't
hide her natural beauty and panache.
She makes her way across the street and to an SUV. she opens
the trunk and tosses in the suitcase among several other
bags.
She closes it, and walks to the driver's side. We see that
the entire cargo bay of the SUV is filled with boxes and
personal affects.
Al INT. SUV, CITY STREET - DAY Al
Jennifer gets in and slams the door shut. she takes a moment
to think, to breathe. Something is weighing heavily on her
mind.
After a beat, she glances up to the rearview mirror and looks
at herself. She take a long, deep, cleansing breath, and
then she turns the key in the ignition and starts the car.
B1 EXT. SUV, CITY STREET - DAY Bl
The SUV drives off down the city street.
C1 EXT. CITY OVERPASS - DAY C1
The SUV carves its way through traffic as the city looms in
the background, growing more distant by the second.
2 INT. CAR, RURAL ROAD - DAY 2
The midday sun bakes the landscape as Jennifer drives through
a country road. A stark contrast from the city, and
absolutely breathtaking.
GPS SYSTEM
Turn right up ahead.
Jennifer squints out the front windshield. The streets are
all unpaved and none of them are marked with street signs.
ISOYG PINK 10/29/09 2.
Finally, Jennifer pulls into the driveway of a small house.
She picks up a piece of paper from the passenger seat, checks
the address on the house, and gets out of the car.
3 EXT. EARL'S PLACE - DAY 3
Jennifer walks up the crumbling steps of the house. On the
screen door, a wire holds a wooden sign that reads; OPEN.
The screen door SQUEAKS loudly as Jennifer pulls it open.
JENNIFER
Hello?
Jennifer cautiously steps inside.
4 INT. EARL'S PLACE - DAY 4
The sunlight shines through the dirty curtains. Dust clouds
hang motionless in the air, as if suspended in a solution.
Scattered across the floor are a variety of electronics in
various stages of disrepair. A handful of old, picture tube
TVs with their plastic casings cracked.
JENNIFER
Hello?
Jennifer walks in further, trying to not step on anything.
JENNIFER (CONT'D)
Hello?
EARL (O.S.)
I'm a coming, I'm a coming.
From out of the back walks the proprietor, EARL (late-50's),
takes a double take at Jennifer, surely the prettiest thing
he's seen in a long while. He sees her standing in the
middle of the mess, suddenly aware of it. He bends down to
pick something up in a futile attempt to clean.
EARL (CONT'D)
Sorry about the mess.
JENNIFER
It's fine, really. I'm Jennifer
Hills. We spoke last week.
(NO RECOGNITION)
I'm the one who's renting the cabin
on...

ISOYG PINK 10/29/09 3.
JENNIFER (CONT'D)
(Jennifer holds a piece of paper)
.on Mockingbird Trail.
Earl's surprised.
EARL
Oh, you're Miss Hills.
Earl walks over to a cabinet against the wall, opens a small
drawer and takes out a key.
EARL (CONT'D)
Don't suppose you know how to get
out there?
JENNIFER
Afraid not.
Earl hands her the key. Earl pulls a map with some hand-drawn
arrows already on it.
EARL
Alright, listen up 'cause it's a bit
tricky.
(BEAT)
These here arrows will get you
through town. Over here, it's more
dirt road and woods so it can get
kind of dicey. We're a tad short
on street signs.
JENNIFER
Well if I get lost I'll just ask
for directions.
EARL
To who? Lady, the cabin is a real
beaut, but heck if there ain't
nothin' out there for a good
country mile.
JENNIFER
(JOKING)
Well, I guess I don't have to worry
about bothering the neighbors.
EARL
Not planning on throwing a party,
are ya? The security deposit...
JENNIFER
No, no. I'm looking forward to the
peace and quiet. I'm a novelist.
I'm starting my next book.
ISOYG PINK 10/29/09 4.
Earl just looks at her.
EARL
Alright, well, if that's what
you're aimin' for, just follow that
there map.
Jennifer looks at the map.
5 EXT. RURAL ROAD - DAY 5
Jennifer drives down the two lane road, barely passable by
two cars. She swerves as she glances down at map.
Then, up ahead she spots a small SERVICE STATION with a
single gas pump. She pulls up to the pump.
EXT. SERVICE STATION - DAY 6
Jennifer gets out of the car and fumbles to fold back the map
as she twists the knob off her gas tank and reaches for the
pump. A HAND comes down on top of her own.
Jennifer spins around.
Standing there, smiling, is JOHNNY. He takes the pump from
Jennifer and inserts it into her gas tank.
JOHNNY
Didn't mean to frighten you.
Johnny is good-looking in a rugged sort of way. He's sinewy,
but athletic and strong. Jennifer regains her composure.
JENNIFER
No, it's fine. I'm sort of lost
anyway. Looking for Mockingbird
Trail?
JOHNNY
You are definitely lost.
JENNIFER
Really? I thought--
JOHNNY
Nah, you sure missed it. It's a
good ten miles back, left turn
after the big red mailbox.
ISOYG PINK 10/29/09 4A.
JENNIFER
Oh, okay, I think I saw that.
ISOYG PINK 10/29/09 5.
Johnny flashes his smile, picking his teeth with a toothpick.
Jennifer stands there uncomfortably.
JOHNNY
You, uh... staying at the cabin?
Jennifer hesitates for a second. Just as Jennifer opens her
mouth to respond, the shrill notes of a HARMONICA shatter the
silence. Jennifer turns quickly to the garage.
In the garage, ANDY, one of Johnny's employees, sits on the
fender of a broken down car. He holds a harmonica to his
lips. He's in his mid-30's with shaggy hair and arms that
look like they could bend steel.
STANLEY, one of Johnny and Andy's buddies, walks up behind
Andy. He's balding and overweight, and digs into a bag of
pork rinds.
STANLEY
Howdy ma'am.
He leans into Andy who continues playing his harp.
ANDY
I'd sop that up with a biscuit real
good.
Jennifer turns away from the garage and looks back at Johnny,
who is still awaiting her answer.
JENNIFER
Uh... no. I mean yes.
As she glances to the gas pump, Johnny looks her up and down.
She is definitely something to look at.
Johnny places his hand on the hood of the car. Glances to
the guys, then back to her.
JOHNNY
You know, you're running a little
hot. Want me to uh... maybe I
should check under your hood?
Jennifer almost laughs at the way that sounded.
JENNIFER
How's that line working for you?
The gas pump clicks off interrupting. But Johnny just stands
there looking at her.
ISOYG PINK 10/29/09 5A.
JOHNNY
I don't know, how's it working for
you?
Johnny saunters over to the pump and in a phallic manner,
pulls the pump out. It gets laughs from the peanut gallery.
Jennifer looks away, a line has been crossed. She looks to
the pump again. $19.78.
ISOYG PINK 10/29/09 6.
JENNIFER
Let me just...
Jennifer fumbles into her purse when the map falls from her
hands.
JOHNNY
I'll get that.
JENNIFER
No I got it--
Johnny gets uncomfortably close to Jennifer at the rear door
of the car when--
HONK -- HONK -- HONK - The SUV's deafening alarm blares out.
Johnny's startled, stumbles backwards, trips and goes
sprawling to the ground.
Jennifer, controlling laughter, holds up her keys and clicks
the alarm off.
Johnny is covered in dust and oil, struggling to get to his
feet while maintaining a shred of dignity. Jennifer
chuckles.
JENNIFER (CONT'D)
Sorry. I accidentally hit the
panic button. Are you okay?
JOHNNY
I'm fine.
Johnny looks away, angry. He's certainly not the type of guy
who can laugh at himself easily, if at all. From the garage,
Stanley and Andy point at him and guffaw.
ANDY
(from the garage)
Hey! You better check your
underwear, Johnny.
Stanley smiles and elbows Andy, but his mouth is too full
with pork rinds to actually laugh.
STANLEY
Yea... Check um' for skidmarks...
Johnny shoots him a harsh look.
Jennifer hands Johnny a twenty. Trying to contain her
laughter.
ISOYG PINK 10/29/09 6A.
JENNIFER
Sure you okay?
Johnny's eyes are cold, his face red.
ISOYG PINK 10/29/09 7.
JOHNNY
I said I was fine.
Suddenly, Jennifer grows uneasy. She smiles uncomfortably,
gets in the car and drives away.
Johnny takes a bandana from his pocket and wipes his brow.
He watches Jennifer's car disappear and spits on the ground
as the laughter escalates in her absence. Johnny spins.
JOHNNY (CONT'D)
What the hell are you two dipshits
laughing at?!
7 EXT. CABIN - DAY 7
Jennifer arrives at the cabin. She gets out of her car and
stands there, looking up at it. In slight disrepair and in
need of a paint job but the quaint charm makes you quickly
forget its shortcomings.
8 TNT. CABIN - DAY 8
Jennifer walks in with her bags, looks around the cabin.
It's rustic, but she's hardly roughing it.
9 INT. CABIN, THE KITCHEN - DAY 9
She starts unpacking. A few cardboard boxes with non-
perishable food items sit on the counter next to cases of
bottled water. Also, there's a large wine case with
different liquor bottles in the sections. Jennifer takes out
a bottle of top shelf vodka and puts it in the freezer.
Then she begins to grab the wine bottles, taking an extra
second to look at one, the hell with it, she grabs an opener.
A9 TNT. CABIN - DAY A9
Jennifer sets up her laptop at a make-shift workstation.
Throws some freshly cut flowers in a small vase, a few lucky
figurines from her travels... it all feels very ritualistic.
10 EXT. CABIN - DAY 10
Jennifer site at the end of the boat dock. Laptop and glass
of wine writing away. She couldn't be more content.
ISOYG PINK 10/29/09 8.
She takes a deep, replenishing breath, and then goes back to
WRITING--
A10 INT. CABIN - DAY A10
CLOSE ON: Words fly across the screen as Jennifer types at a
furious pace. Blocks of text keep scrolling away.
Her fingers effortlessly swipe away at key after key, a
writer's high if you will.
Finally an exclamation point is stabbed with emphasis. Then
she hears a sound off in the trees.
She looks out and hears a very distant few notes of a
harmonica. Then a few even more distant "heeeeeeweeeee".
After a beat she innocently smiles figuring it's just some
boys off in the distance having a party or something.
Jennifer leans back, smiles briefly and pour herself a glass
of wine.
11 EXT. CABIN, FRONT PORCH - DUSK 11
Jennifer sits at the table, her laptop propped open in front
of her. She's talking away on the phone as she stops for a
moment to take a sip from a glass of red wine.
JENNIFER
(INTO PHONE)
.Lonely? Are you kidding? I
should've come out here on my first
book...
The wind kicks up and a in the distance a door is slammed
shut. It startles jennifer. She looks in the direction of the
sound.
JENNIFER (CONT'D)
Sorry, something just...
Another slam, and again.
JENNIFER (CONT'D)
(INTO PHONE)
Barb, hold on a minute...
ISOYG PINK 10/29/09 8A.
Jennifer sets down her lap top and puts the glass of wine on
the arm of the chair. She gets up and looks off into the
dusky woods. Then back to the house.
A light breeze kicks up and SLAM. Again.
JENNIFER (CONT'D)
(INTO PHONE)
Let me call you back.
ISOYG PINK 10/29/09 9.
Jennifer snaps the phone shut, and walks down the steps of
the front porch.
JENNIFER (CONT'D)
Hello?
In response, she gets the frantic CHIRPING of crickets as
night encroaches.
Jennifer walks down a path and in the near distance she see a
SHED. SLAM!
The SHED DOOR is kicking open and closed in the breeze.
She makes her way towards the shed.
All EXT. CABIN, SHED - DUSK All
Jennifer gets to the shed. The door is wide open. She steps
inside.
B11 INT. CABIN, SHED - DUSK B11
Inside there is an array of old gardening tools. Pots,
garbage cans. Some different chemical bottles including a jug
of LYE.
Jennifer thinks she hears something from deep inside the
shed. She moves in further as--
SLAM!
The door shuts behind her -
JENNIFER
Shit!
C11 EXT. CABIN, SHED - DUSK C11
Jennifer exits, and securely closes the shed door. After a
beat she smirks at the thought that she thought this was more
than just a door blowing in the wind, then heads back to the
cabin.
D12 EXT. CABIN, FRONT PORCH -DUSK D12
Jennifer walks up to the chair, moves her laptop, sits and
then as she grabs her phone she knocks the glass of wine off
the arm of the chair into her lap.
ISOYG PINK 10/29/09 10.
JENNIFER
Ohhhhh... You gotta be kidding.
She get up, looks at the red wine stain all over her lap, and
picks up her things to heads in the cabin.
JENNIFER (CONT'D)
Way to go Jennifer...
The last of the days light is disappearing.
12 INT. CABIN - NIGHT 12
Jennifer stands at the sink, in panties and tank top - pre-
soaking her sweater and pants.
13 EXT. CABIN - NIGHT 13
POV THROUGH KITCHEN WINDOW:
Jennifer continues at the sink, her beautiful, partially nude
body is framed perfectly in the window for all to see... but
no one's around for miles...
14 EXT. WOODS - DAY 14
Jennifer jogs through the trees. She wears a tight pair of
running shorts and a out off T-shirt.
Jennifer stops in a small clearing. With her hands on her
knees, she struggles to catch her breath.
She stands and walks in a circle, looks around. Checks her
watch.
Then notices something in the distance hidden behind the
trees.
ANGLE ON: A dilapidated shack, rotted from decay and neglect.
Jennifer's curiosity gets the best of her.
15 EXT. DILAPIDATED HOUSE - DAY 15
She walks up to the shack, looks around. She then enters
through what is left of the front door.
ISOYG PINK 10/29/09 11.
A15 INT. DILAPIDATED HOUSE - DAY A15
The place hasn't been occupied in quite a while, but it was
once. An old, dirty mattress in the corner... a sawhorse-for-
a-counter with old cans and bottles... even a rusty old
garden tool or two.
Near the window she sees an old, mold covered BIBLE propped
open.
Jennifer suddenly gets the chills, she shakes it off and then
gets the hell out of there.
16 EXT. CABIN - DAY 16
Jennifer finishes her jog and returns to the cabin, leans
over on the porch and catches her breath.
17 INT. CABIN, BATHROOM - DAY 17
Jennifer stands in front of the mirror. She looks at her
reflection and pulls out the band that was holding up her
ponytail. Her sweat-soaked hair falls across her shoulders.
She turns on the faucet and is met with a dirty spray.
JENNIFER
Eww!
The spray only lasts a few seconds before sputtering out.
However, then the toilet starts to GURGLE. Jennifer lifts
the lid up with her foot. The toilet water bubbles up and
then disappears down the drain.
JENNIFER (CONT'D)
(SHUDDERS)
Gross.
Again, Jennifer tries the sink, but now nothing comes out.
18 INT. CABIN, KITCHEN - DAY 18
Jennifer picks up her cellphone from the counter. She takes
a small piece of paper out of her purse and punches in some
numbers on the cell. After a few rings, voicemail picks up.
EARL MESSAGE(V.O.)
You've reached the answering machine
of Earl Wooderson.
(MORE)
ISOYG PINK 10/29/09 12.
EARL MESSAGE(V.O.) (CONT'D)
The office is closed, please leave a
message and someone will call you
back on Monday. If you're calling
about buying or selling an exotic
animal, please leave your name --
Jennifer snaps the phone shut in frustration, when her eye
catches the water-damaged remnants of a service sticker
hanging to the refrigerator door.
Amazingly, the phone number is still visible. She shrugs to
herself and dials the number.
19 INT. CABIN, BATHROOM -- DAY 19
She lifts the lid and looks inside - dry - and flushes a few
more times to no avail - then dirty water begins to gurgle
up.
JENNIFER
(LISTENS INTENTLY)
No, it won't flush... I did that
already... yes... look, I'm really
in a spot... okay... thank you...
I'm not going anywhere.
As Jennifer snaps her phone shut, the handset gets caught on
her chin, and tumbles into the toilet. PLOP!
JENNIFER (CONT'D)
Oh shit!
Jennifer reaches down into the toilet and immediately fishes
it out. She shakes it off vigorously.
20 INT. CABIN, KITCHEN - DAY 20
Jennifer stands next to the kitchen counter. She holds her
hair dryer which is going at full blast. Her cell phone is
propped open on the counter in front of her. She's doing her
best to dry it out.
Suddenly, a hand reaches out and taps her on the shoulder.
Jennifer SCREAMS and spins around, turning the hair dryer on
her assailant.
An equally frightened MATTHEW throws his hands up in front of
his face and SCREAMS just as loudly. He has several think
colored rubber bands on his wrist.
ISOYG PINK 10/29/09 12A.
MATTHEW
P1... please! I... I came to fix
the plumbing.
ISOYG PINK 10/29/09 13.
Jennifer turns off the hair dryer.
MATTHEW (CONT'D)
I... I was knocking on the d...door
a...a... while.
Jennifer breathes a sigh of relief, especially after she gets
a look at Matthew. He's in his mid-30's, but could pass for
a good ten years younger. Awkward and shy, he can barely
make eye contact with her.
JENNIFER
(FRIENDLY)
I think you may have taken a few
years off my life.
Matthew doesn't get the joke.
JENNIFER (CONT'D)
Uh... thanks for coming on such
short notice.
(NO RESPONSE)
You need to see the bathroom,
right?
21 INT. CABIN, BATHROOM - DAY 21
Matthew works away underneath the sink. Jennifer watches him
from the bedroom sitting on the end of the bed, trying to
make small talk.
JENNIFER
Is this gonna take much longer?
MATTHEW
(muffled, under the sink)
N...not much.
JENNIFER
So what's wrong with it?
MATTHEW
Uh... it's just older pipes.
Matthew continues his work, you can tell he is uncomfortable
with the conversation.
JENNIFER
So do you live around here?
MATTHEW
No...no one lives around here.
ISOYG PINK 10/29/09 14.
JENNIFER
Yeah, I kind of get that. I meant
in town?
Matthew comes out from under the sink. He snaps nerviously
at one of the rubber bands on his wrist.
MATTHEW
My... my whole life...
Jennifer looks to his wrist. It's all red.
Matthew turns on the faucet. Out comes a hard stream of
cold, clear water. He flushes the toilet and then turns on
the shower to the same result.
MATTHEW (CONT'D)
All fixed.
Jennifer squeals with excitement. She wraps her arms around
Matthew and plants a kiss on his cheek.
JENNIFER
Thank you!
Matthew blushes furiously and fumbles his tools as he packs
up. For him, the kiss was more embarrassing than enjoyable.
JENNIFER (CONT'D)
I'm sorry. I just... you saved me
from having to bathe in the pond.
Once his tools are all packed away, Matthew dashes out of the
cabin. Jennifer follows him to the front door.
JENNIFER (CONT'D)
Hey. Hey! I didn't even pay you!
But Matthew is long gone.
22 EXT. FISHING HOLE - DAY 22
ON MINIDV CAN LCD
A wooden bat crashes down on a fish. It goes still.
Stanley takes a MINIDV CAMCORDER away from his eye. He looks
at Andy who's holding the bloody bat, and takes a large gulp
from his beer, then--
STANLEY
Ground rule double.
ISOYG PINK 10/29/09 15.
ANDY
(ANGRILY)
A double! Look at its head. I
knocked the eye clear out.
Andy has, in fact, knocked the fish's eye clear out. It lays
next to the creature, all weird and googly-looking.
STANLEY
Fine. Maybe a triple. But that's
it. You got to knock the guts out
its mouth to score a run.
ANDY
Would you turn that thing off?
Gonna get us in trouble with that
human society.
JOHNNY
Humane you dipshit.
Johnny site in a chair holding his fishing rod between his
knees. A cigarette dangles from his mouth and a beer is
perpetually glued to his hand.
ANDY
Whatever.
STANLEY
I told you. This thing is going to
make me a fortune. All you got to
do is film something crazy, then
you send it into the internet, make
a killing.
ANDY
No one's gonna pay you for that
crap.
STANLEY
It's the hits, Andy. You just
gotta get the hits.
JOHNNY
Hits my ass, now you two retards
gonna fish or what?
Matthew comes crashing out of the foliage, knocks over the
cooler spilling ice and beer all over.
ANDY
Speaking of retards.
ISOYG PINK 10/29/09 16.
MATTHEW
Q..Quit it Andy.
JOHNNY
Alright. Now we're all here,
what's the big show, Stanley?
STANELY
The big show is this--
Stanley holds up the video camera like a trophy.
ANDY
Are you kidding me? That shit?
What'd you do? Film yourself
lighting a fart?
STANELY
Better.
Johnny just shakes his head.
JOHNNY
(TO HIMSELF)
I don't know why I bother.
STANLEY
I got Matthew's girlfriend in a
private moment.
ANDY
What do you mean like on the toilet
or something?
Stanley pulls a tape out of his pocket and loads it.
ANDY (CONT'D)
Matthew hasn't had a girl since he
was sucking his mama's titties.
STANLEY
Not true, my friends. And the
evidence is right here.
MATTHEW
What are you ta... talking 'bout
Stanley?
ANDY
Yeah, what are you talking about?
ISOYG PINK 10/29/09 16A.
STANLEY
He had that babe from the city all
alone and he didn't even try to
nail her.
ISOYG PINK 10/29/09 17.
This gets Johnny's attention. Matthew is snapping on of the
rubber bands. It's a bit loud. Johnny looks to him as if it
is annoying him.
JOHNNY
What babe from the city?
STANLEY
You know, the one who stopped for
gas the other day. The one who
dumped you on your can. She had
Matty here fixing her pipes.
JOHNNY
Bullshit.
Matthew snaps the rubber band more. Johnny turns quickly to
him.
JOHNNY (CONT'D)
Cut that shit homo! How many times
I gotta tell you.
Stanley gets the camera ready.
STANLEY
She even gave him a kiss for
"servicing her." Look, here's
Matthew running from the cabin like
a schoolgirl.
They all gather around.
POV CAMERA: Matthew runs from the cabin, dropping tools as
he goes. Jennifer stands in the doorway calling after him.
The camera goes closer on Jennifer --
The guys break up. Johnny is a bit more serious.
ANDY
Now that's some fine camera work,
even better than the time you
filmed yo' self hangin' your nana's
cat.
JOHNNY
What's this about a kiss?
STANLEY
Matthew here says she gave him a
kiss right on the cheek.
ISOYG PINK 10/29/09 17A.
JOHNNY
Bullshit.
MATTHEW
No, she did Johnny. She kissed me.
JOHNNY
Don't lie to me dipshit.
ISOYG PINK 10/29/09 18.
STANELY
If you all don't shut the hell up
you'll miss the encore.
All eyes turn to Stanley as Stanley pushes some buttons on
the MINIDV cam. Andy comes over and looks at the LCD screen.
STANLEY
Get ready for it.
ON MINIDV: The footage that Stanley shot is obviously the
previous night through Jennifer's kitchen window.
ANDY
I'll be. Look at the rack on that
pony.
Andy punches Stanley in the arm. Johnny just stares at the
screen.
ANDY (CONT'D)
You dirty dog. Where the hell'd
you get that?
STANLEY
I've been working nights.
ANDY
Sure is something to look at.
Matthew is clearly uncomfortable, but he desperately needs to
be one of the guys.
MATTHEW
Yeah, and she likes me... she was
nice to me.
Stretching a rubber band.
ANDY
Nice? To her, you're nothing but a
shitter fixer. Hell, she wouldn't
even give Johnny the time of day.
Johnny snaps his head up and looks at Stanley.
JOHNNY
Bullshit. I could tame that ass if
I wanted to.
ANDY
You saw her Johnny... stuck up city
bitch.
ISOYG PINK 10/29/09 18A.
STANLEY
Yea, girls like that think you're
hardly good enough to pump their
gas.
Johnny lights up another cigarette. He points at Andy.
ISOYG PINK 10/29/09 19.
JOHNNY
Let me tell you something. I had
her creaming in her panties.
ANDY
And she had you shitting yours.
Least her car alarm did.
The guys yuck it up.
JOHNNY
(SEETHING)
You don't think I could have her
anytime I want?
Andy looks away and begins to reel in his line. Stanley
stuffs his face with some crap so he doesn't have to answer.
JOHNNY (CONT'D)
Bitch like that comes up here for
one reason. Sitting in that
window, tits flapping in the wind
for all to see. You know?
MATTHEW
Nah... She's not like that, Johnny.
Johnny snorts, condescendingly.
JOHNNY
How do you know, ya fuckin' virgin?
Let me tell you something. They're
all like that! Fucking big city
cock-teasing whore is all she is.
He flicks his cigarette and it sizzles out in the water. Then
he gets right up in Matthew's face.
JOHNNY (CONT'D)
You'd have no idea what to do with
a piece of ass like that. But
luckily I'm your friend.
Johnny hands him a beer and pats him on the back firmly.
23 INT. CABIN - NIGHT 23
Jennifer writes away at the dining room table. She's on a
tear. A "writer's zone" where everything she types is gold.
She hits the "return" key hard, as if to punctuate a
particularly good sentence. She picks up some lip gloss and
puts it on.
ISOYG PINK 10/29/09 20.
She leans back to take a break when her eye catches the cell
phone sitting on the table. She picks the phone up, flips it
open - It's still completely dead.
In frustration, she throws the phone across the room. It
hits the couch right next to the duffle bag. She smiles
mischievously to herself.
Jennifer reaches inside and withdraws a sandwich bag filled
with pot and rolling papers. She expertly rolls herself a
joint and lights it up. She closes her eyes. Bliss.
24 EXT. CABIN - NIGHT -- LATER 24
From a distance, the cabin looks like a star twinkling in the
night sky. Trees sway in the breeze, dappling the light.
25 INT. CABIN - NIGHT 25
Jennifer's head is slouched over her desk. She passed out.
Suddenly, A SCRATCHING NOISE at the front door.
CLOSE ON: Jennifer's eyes flit open as -
Jennifer jumps awake and walks over to check the door,
glancing at the clock as she goes. 4:14 am.
Jennifer gets to the door and listens, Nothing. She tries
to look out... nothing.
She turns to walk back when the scratching returns -
Jennifer takes a few steps back toward the door. Again, the
noise stops.
JENNIFER
Hello?
Silence. Jennifer rises up on her toes and looks out the
glass window of the front door. The porch is deserted.
Jennifer opens the door slowly.
26 EXT. CABIN - NIGHT 26
Jennifer looks outside but nothing is there. Just a gentle
breeze and the sway of the trees. Satisfied, she walks out
onto the front porch, then down the steps. She hugs herself
and shivers, then she returns inside.
ISOYG PINK 10/29/09 21.
27 INT. CABIN, FRONT DOOR - NIGHT 27
Jennifer shuts the front door and locks it. Then she yanks
on the door, just to make sure.
28 INT. CABIN - NIGHT 28
She walks back in grabbing her glass and bottle when --
29 INT. CABIN - NIGHT 29
The SCRAPING sound again, but this time, from UPSTAIRS.
Jennifer looks up, hoping that she imagined it. But there it
is again. She sets the bottle and glass down on the end table
next to the couch and then grabs a can of MACE from her purse
on the couch.
30 INT. CABIN, STAIRCASE - NIGHT 30
She walks slowly, holding the mace directly in front of her.
Eventually, Jennifer gets to the top of the stairs.
At the far end of the hallway is an open window. A branch
from outside scrapes against the windowsill.
Jennifer lets out a sigh of relief. She closes the window
and heads back downstairs.
31 INT. CABIN, KITCHEN - NIGHT 31
She puts the mace back in her purse, and then picks up her
drink walking to the kitchen when--
BANG! Something smashes into the sliding glass door--
Jennifer SCREAMS dropping the glass. It SHATTERS.
With more than a hint of trepidation, Jennifer heads towards
THE SIDE DOOR.
With all the courage she can muster up, Jennifer unlocks the
door and steps outside.
ISOYG PINK 10/29/09 22.
32 EXT. CABIN, BACK PORCH - NIGHT 32
The side porch light acts as a spotlight, illuminating the
culprit -- a lone bird lies motionless on the ground.
Jennifer bends down and picks up a small branch from the
porch. She gives the bird a small poke... nothing. But her
uneasiness is growing. Suddenly... SLAM!
She jumps and looks to the shed, the door is open again and
swinging. She looks to it thinking, "I shut that already..."
She moves off the porch and toward the shed.
33 EXT. CABIN, SHED - NIGHT 33
Jennifer walks to the shed, it feels longer in the dark. She
looks around to the tree line, could be something out there,
an animal, who knows.
She reaches the shed and shuts the door again. She searches
the ground and sees a large stone.
She picks up the stone and shoves it against the door.
Satisfied, she heads back.
34 INT. CABIN - NIGHT 34
Jennifer immediately goes over to her table where the laptop
is set up. She shuffles some papers around when-
Something on her laptop screen catches her attention. She
leans forward, brow furrowed.
ON LAPTOP SCREEN: A picture of Johnny, Stanley, and Andy
leering into the laptop's camera. Like a nightmarish photo
booth snapshot.
JOHNNY
Nice shot huh?
Jennifer shrieks and spins around only to find --
Standing there, right inside the front door, is Johnny. He
smiles.
Johnny shrugs calmly and continues milling about the room.
Jennifer spins around, looking for a way out.
ISOYG PINK 10/29/09 22A.
But Stanley has slipped in through the back door, video
camera obnoxiously filming the scene (which will be out to
throughout).
STANLEY
Smile real pretty for the camera.
ISOYG PINK 10/29/09 23.
JENNIFER
(her voice cracking)
Get out of here. Get out of here
right now!
JOHNNY
Now that's not very hospitable, is
it?
Then, the wooden stairs creak under Andy's steps as he walks
down -- around his chest is one of Jennifer's bra stretched
to the limit. He's twirling a thong panty on his finger. The
guys get a good laugh at Andy.
JENNIFER
All of you better get out of here.
I called the police.
Johnny nods. He looks at her, his gaze mocking.
JOHNNY
You called the police? Or you will
call the police?
JENNIFER
I... I called them already.
They're on their way right now!
JOHNNY
With what phone? Matthew said you
dropped it in the drink.
Jennifer doesn't answer.
JOHNNY (CONT'D)
(looks at Stanley)
Speaking of.. .where the hell is he?
Stanley takes a few steps toward the back door.
STANLEY
Matthew, get your boney ass in
here!
Shortly after, Matthew shuffles inside. He can't even bring
himself to look at Jennifer.
JOHNNY
(TO JENNIFER)
Matthew here said you didn't pay
him for fixity' your sink?
ISOYG PINK 10/29/09 24.
JENNIFER
That is just not true! I tried to.
He ran out... (to Matthew) Is that
what you said?
Matthew winces and starts to snap a rubber band on his wrist.
as Jennifer walks over to her purse.
JENNIFER (CONT'D)
I'll take care of it--
Johnny cuts her off.
JOHNNY
--Let's not worry about that right
now.
Johnny hops up on the kitchen counter, cutting her off with
his leg. He then picks up the bottle of vodka, takes a swig.
JOHNNY (CONT'D)
Now what's a pretty little thing
like you doing out here all alone?
JENNIFER
I'm writing. I'm a Writer... But
my boyfriend is coming up. He'll
actually be here any minute--
JOHNNY
That right?
The guys give a good chuckle-
JOHNNY (CONT'D)
Well, I didn't realize you had a
boyfriend coming down. We'd better
get on outta here. Don't want to
ruin date night.
STANLEY
Yeah, yeah. Date night.
ANDY
(CHUCKLING)
Date night...
JOHNNY
You know what I think. I think
you're lying. There's no
boyfriend. No man in his right
mind would leave a girl like you
all up here on your own.
ISOYG PINK 10/29/09 24A.
JENNIFER
(EMPHATIC)
No he's coming. He had to work. I
told you he'll be here soon.
ISOYG PINK 10/29/09 25.
Johnny turns to her.
JOHNNY
Yeah, well so will Santi Clause.
Andy and Stanley are loving every minute of this. Matthew
leans against the wall, his eyes on the floor.
JOHNNY (CONT'D)
Come here. Have a drink with me.
JENNIFER
No, look. I have the money--
Andy slingshots the thong right at Jennifer. It lands at her
feet.
JOHNNY
What's a matter? Too good to drink
with us?
JENNIFER
Please, I don't want to.
Johnny raises his eyebrows. The bottle is partially empty.
JOHNNY
(TO JENNIFER)
Uh, what's this? It's already been
opened.
(TO OTHERS)
See, she don't want to drink with
us. What are we, dirt?
JENNIFER
I didn't say that.
Andy walks over and sits down at her desk, clicks around the
screen, begins reading aloud from the text...
ANDY
(READING)
.No one wants a phone call at 2
o'clock in the morning. When
you're fifteen it's a prank call,
when your twenty it's a drunk
boyfriend call, but after twenty
five, it's usually real bad news.
That's how I found out my father
died...
(THEN)
Whose daddy died?
ISOYG PINK 10/29/09 26.
JENNIFER
Can you all please leave me alone?!
Meanwhile, Stanley putters around the kitchen, opening and
closing the cabinet doors, knocking stuff around. He finds a
pack of rice cakes. He shoves one in his mouth, winces,
spits it out.
STANLEY
Damned cardboard. You eat this
shit?
ANDY
You should! Do you some good.
Andy turns from the desk, strikes a match and flicks it at
Jennifer,
JENNIFER
Look, can you just tell me what you
want? What do you want? I offered
you money.
Johnny stubbornly holds out the bottle of vodka. Andy
giggles. He finds this quite funny.
JOHNNY
(EXTENDING BOTTLE)
Here.
JENNIFER
Fine, if you'll leave I'll take a
drink.
Jennifer studies the bottle and finally accepts it. Drinks a
small sip. They all start booing.
JOHNNY
Come on. You can do better than
that. I bet when you're out there
with your city friends you can throw
'em back with the best of them.
JENNIFER
I took the drink, now you--
JOHNNY
I said drink it!
Jennifer grows increasingly nervous and reluctantly takes a
nice swig. Then chokes and gags. They all cheer.
ISOYG PINK 10/29/09 27.
JOHNNY (CONT'D)
See? Now was that so bad?
Johnny takes the bottle back and takes a swig himself.
JENNIFER
Look, I'm sorry if I embarrassed
you the other day, but we're even
now, right? Okay. Please. Leave.
Andy and Stanley plop themselves down on the couch and prop
their feet up on the wood and glass coffee table.
JOHNNY
Oh... that's not what this is
about.
JENNIFER
Then what is this about?
Johnny jumps down from the counter. He stands in front of
Jennifer, towering over her.
JOHNNY
I want to see your teeth.
As if the air is sucked out of the room. Jennifer stares at
him, not even sure she heard him correctly.
Matthew snaps the rubber band harder. He moves to the far
corner of the room and tucks himself against the wall.
JENNIFER
Wha... what?
JOHNNY
You heard me, show Horse. Show me
your teeth.
JENNIFER
That's... I'm not going to...
please leave.
JOHNNY
(quiet, but firm)
Show the teeth...
Andy walks over and hands Johnny the small wooden bat he used
to kill the fish. Johnny smacks it against his palm.
JOHNNY (CONT'D)
.or lose the teeth.
ISOYG PINK 10/29/09 27A.
Andy walks back to the couch and flicks another match at
Jennifer. She recoils with fear as she reluctantly gives a
half-smile, her teeth clenched together.
ISOYG PINK 10/29/09 28.
JOHNNY (CONT'D)
No. Put two fingers in the side of
your mouth. Then two fingers in
the other side... and pull.
Jennifer looks at Johnny like he's seriously disturbed as
Johnny slaps the bat against his hand punctuating his point.
Jennifer puts her fingers in her mouth. She pulls her lips
away from the gums, spreading them grotesquely. It's
completely humiliating. Jennifer stops.
JENNIFER
Now please... I'm begging you...
Johnny slides off the counter.
JOHNNY
Uh, uh. Again.
Jennifer reinserts her fingers and pulls. Johnny reaches
into her mouth and grabs a hold of her two front teeth with
his thumb and forefinger.
JOHNNY (CONT'D)
Alright. Good girl, Show Horse.
Johnny pulls down on Jennifer's teeth, forcing her to the
floor. Jennifer looks as if she's about to cry, near her on
the ground is the broken glass.
Stanley and Andy needle each other like schoolboys. Matthew
shuffles nervously, clearly uncomfortable at being there.
JOHNNY (CONT'D)
I'll tell you something
sweetheart... know why you ain't
got no boyfriend?... 'Cause all
them city guys are faggots.
Johnny turns to her.
JOHNNY (CONT'D)
But uh... since he isn't here.
Johnny pulls out his revolver.
JOHNNY (CONT'D)
This is your man.
He moves closer to her, rubbing the gun against her cheek,
her chin. The blood drains from her face as -
ISOYG PINK 10/29/09 29.
JOHNNY (CONT'D)
Why don't you give him a kiss-
With terror in her eyes, Jennifer quickly kisses the gun-
JOHNNY (CONT'D)
Nah, not like the peck you gave
Matthew... let's see a real kiss.
He slides the barrel into Jennifer's mouth. Jennifer gags
instinctively. Johnny holds the back of her head, not
allowing her to pull away, and offers some "encouragement."
JOHNNY (CONT'D)
Breathe through your nose. Breathe
through your nose like it was your
first time.
Johnny pulls the gun out just a tiny bit and pushes it back
into her cheek, causing it to bulge out.
Naturally, Stanley and Andy both find this hysterical.
Especially once Jennifer begins to cry.
JOHNNY (CONT'D)
(TO JENNIFER)
On your knees.
Jennifer complies. Johnny holds the gun in front of his
crotch and again forces it into Jennifer's mouth.
JOHNNY (CONT'D)
if I don't like your enthusiasm, I
may cum early.
(cocks the gun)
And that's something you really
don't want.
Jennifer has no choice. She begins to fellate the gun, as
deep as she can take it without gagging.
Johnny closes his eyes and feigns pleasure. Finally, he's
had enough. He retracts the gun as Jennifer recoils, gags.
Her eyes begin to scan the cabin for any way out of this hell
as Andy stands up from the couch.
ANDY
My turn.
ISOYG PINK 10/29/09 29A.
STANLEY
Come on, let Matthew have a go.
It's his girlfriend and he hasn't
even wet his whistle yet.
ISOYG PINK 10/29/09 30.
MATTHEW
I...I ddd...don't want to.
Johnny walks up to Matthew, angrily, and slaps him across the
face. He points to Jennifer.
JOHNNY
What do you mean you don't want to?
(TEASING)
sh...she likes me... she kissed me.
Now shut up and prove it.
Matthew holds his fist against his face.
ANDY
Aw, fuck it. I ain't waiting.
Andy grabs the VODKA BOTTLE. He walks over to Jennifer,
still on her knees, and positions the bottle right in front
of his crotch.
ANDY (CONT'D)
Suck it, bitch.
Jennifer opens her mouth and moves her head toward the
bottle. As she maneuvers the bottle-neck into her mouth, her
eye catches a large shard of glass next to Andy's boot.
As soon as Andy turns around to smile at his friends,
Jennifer grabs the bottle and cracks it upside his kneecap.
Andy immediately grabs his leg and falls to the floor.
The guys start laughing as--
Jennifer leaps up from the floor and rushes over to her
purse. She quickly pulls out a canister of mace -
Before the guys even register what is happening Jennifer is
racing at Stanley --
As he brings the camera down he's met with a spray of mace.
He clutches his face, screaming in pain --
And like that - Jennifer is out the back door.
35 EXT. CABIN - DAWN 35
Jennifer leaps over the porch steps and sprints across the
backyard as the first light creeps through the trees. Within
seconds, she's in the woods.
ISOYG PINK 10/29/09 31.
36 EXT. WOODS - DAWN 36
Jennifer runs for all she's worth. Every few yards, she
looks behind her, just to make sure that no one is chasing
her. The morning light now fully visible. Then, just as she
turns back around, Jennifer smacks right into something and
goes sprawling.
When her vision comes into focus she sees the side of a shiny
black boot. Next to it, the long slim barrel of a shotgun.
Jennifer looks up at the figure.
FIGURE
Whoa, whoa, whoa there. Easy
darlin'.
The Figure extends his hand. As Jennifer reaches for it, she
sees his jacket pull away from his chest, revealing a silver
badge. She's found SHERIFF STORCH, a small town sheriff with
a small town charm that can easily be confused as smarmy.
JENNIFER
Help me. Please!
Standing next to the Sheriff, also holding a hunting rifle,
is Earl. Earl looks over at the Sheriff.
SHERIFF STORCH
Okay, okay, I gotcha.
The Sheriff helps Jennifer to her feet.
EARL
I know this one. She rented the
place down on Mockingbird Trail.
JENNIFER
I was assaulted! They broke into
the cabin! They had a gun-
Jennifer breaks down again.
SHERIFF STORCH
Ma'am, please, you have to calm
down.
But Jennifer is hysterical, desperately holding back tears.
JENNIFER
In my mouth! He put a gun in my
mouth! You don't understand...
ISOYG PINK 10/29/09 32.
SHERIFF STORCH
Ma'am, It's okay. I'm the Sheriff.
You need to take a deep breath and
tell me what happened.
Jennifer forces herself to take a deep breath and manages to
pull herself together.
JENNIFER
Four men. It was four of them.
They broke into my cabin... They
assaulted me!
Earl just watches not knowing what to do.
SHERIFF STORCH
Are you hurt? Do you need a
hospital?
Jennifer shakes her head.
SHERIFF STORCH (CONT'D)
Okay, good. That's good. Did you
get a good look at them? Can you
ID 'em?
JENNIFER
Yes, I'd seen them before.
SHERIFF STORCH
Around here?
JENNIFER
At the service station right
outside of town. They work there.
SHERIFF STORCH
(TO EARL)
John Miller no doubt.
JENNIFER
Yes. They called him Johnny.
There was a heavy set guy too--
AND --
Sheriff Storch shakes his head and rolls his eyes.
ISOYG PINK 10/29/09 33.
SHERIFF STORCH
Sounds like them boys been up to no
good. Alright Earl. You best head
on back. Me and Miss...
JENNIFER
Hills. Jennifer Hills.
SHERIFF STORCH
Me and Miss Hills are gonna head on
over to the cabin and straighten
'em out.
37 BRT. CABIN - DAY 37
Sheriff Storch and Jennifer pull up to the cabin. They both
get out of the cruiser. With his double barrel shotgun in
hand, Sheriff Storch begins walking up toward the porch.
38 INT. CABIN - DAY 38
Sheriff Storch and Jennifer enter the cabin. It appears
empty.
SHERIFF STORCH
Hello?
(BEAT)
Miller? Miller, this is the
Sheriff. if you and your boys are
still in there, you come on out
right now.
Sheriff Storch disappears into the kitchen for a second...
then back out as he makes his way over to the foot of the
stairs. He looks up the staircase.
SHERIFF STORCH (CONT'D)
Miller, if you're up there, you'll
be leaving by the window.
No answer. Sheriff Storch looks at Jennifer.
SHERIFF STORCH (CONT'D)
Stay here.
Sheriff Storch heads up the stairs. Jennifer, uncomfortable
at being left alone, backs away to the wall. Every noise,
every foot step makes her shiver.
After a few seconds, the Sheriff comes back to the top of the
stairs.
ISOYG PINK 10/29/09 34.
SHERIFF STORCH (CONT'D)
It's empty.
He walks back down.
SHERIFF STORCH (CONT'D)
No sign of 'em. If they were here,
they're gone now.
Sheriff Storch makes his way through and walks back into--
39 INT. CABIN, KITCHEN - DAY 39
Jennifer follows him and watches as he inspects it closely.
His eyes fall on the box of liquor bottles.
SHERIFF STORCH
You here alone?
JENNIFER
Yes.
SHERIFF STORCH
(RE: LIQUOR)
With all this?
JENNIFER
I wasn't going to drink it all this
weekend. I... I planned on being
here for a couple of months.
SHERIFF STORCH
Drink some tonight?
JENNIFER
Yes, well, they were. They forced
me to.
He moves away and walks back through the cabin.
As he does, he spots the glass shattered on the floor... and
the nearby THONG and BRA that Andy flung at her.
Takes a long hard look at them, then looks back up to
Jennifer.
JENNIFER (CONT'D)
One of them, he was up there, went
through everything.
ISOYG PINK 10/29/09 35.
Sheriff Storch taps the broken glass with his thick boot.
SHERIFF STORCH
(pointing to the glass)
They do this, too?
JENNIFER
Please, I don't care about those
things. They shoved a gun in my
mouth...
Jennifer breaks down again as the Sheriff moves toward her.
SHERIFF STORCH
Okay, okay Ma'am. It's okay now.
Them boys are gone. You're safe
now.
Jennifer nods to him, still shaken. Storch looks to the lock
on the back door.
He walks toward the back door and turns the dead bolt back
and forth.
SHERIFF STORCH (CONT'D)
(re: back door)
Was this locked?
JENNIFER
Yes. Of course.
40 EXT. CABIN - DAY 40
Sheriff Storch steps onto the porch. Jennifer follows.
Sheriff Storch looks down and sees the dead bird at his feet.
He pokes it with the barrel of his shotgun.
SHERIFF STORCH
How long you been here?
JENNIFER
Just a few days.
SHERIFF STORCH
Anything strange happen before
this? You have a run in with any
of these guys?
JENNIFER
No. Not really. I stopped for gas
and directions.
ISOYG PINK 10/29/09 36.
41 INT. CABIN - DAY 41
Back inside, Sheriff Storch hooks his fingers into his belt
and continues to look around.
His eyes casually fall upon the roach sitting in the ashtray.
He picks it up and smells it.
SHERIFF STORCH
Ma'am, is this your marijuana
cigarette?
Suddenly, Jennifer realizes that simple possession might not
go over in this small town like it does in Manhattan.
JENNIFER
Uh... n...no. The men probably
left it.
Sheriff Storch walks over to Jennifer until he's standing
directly in front of her.
SHERIFF STORCH
You mean to tell me that one of
these guys was wearing lipstick?
Storch holds up the roach. Jennifer notices the lipstick
smear on the rolling paper. She casts her eyes downward.
SHERIFF STORCH (CONT'D)
This ain't the big city.
Sheriff Storch stands uncomfortably close. Slowly, he walks
closer up to Jennifer's face, stares into her eyelids. Pulls
down one of them. Then the other. Then his gaze falls down
to her chest... her ample cleavage. His stare lingers a bit
too long.
JENNIFER
Please, I swear. I didn't make it
up. I may have smoked a joint, but-
Sheriff Storch lifts his walkie-talkie to his mouth.
SHERIFF STORCH
(into the walkie-talkie)
This is Sheriff Storch. I'm at the
Mockingbird Cabin. I gonna need
some backup.
The words out of the Sheriff's mouth seem almost surreal.
ISOYG PINK 10/29/09 37.
JENNIFER
(BECOMING FRANTIC)
Backup? What could you possibly
need back up for? I'm the victim.
Sheriff Storch holds up his hand, cutting her off.
SHERIFF STORCH
Ma'am. You've been drinking and
smoking marijuana, and you got
enough alcohol here to put our
whole town three sheets to the
wind. You're running around in
your nighty at the crack of dawn...
You need to see this from my point
of view.
JENNIFER
What?! They were here! They
assaulted me! You've got to
believe me!
SHERIFF STORCH
I just want to get to the bottom of
it. You're making serious
accusations bout' boys I've know
since they was kids, and you
haven't been all together truthful
now have you?
(BEAT)
Now please, against the wall.
Angry and ashamed, Jennifer walks over and places her palms
against the wall, her legs pressed tightly together.
Sheriff Storch inches up behind her. He taps the inside of
her thigh with his shotgun.
SHERIFF STORCH (CONT'D)
Shoulder width apart, face to the
wall.
Jennifer has no choice but to comply.
He pats up and down Jennifer's side. When he gets to the
swell of her breast, he slides his hand to the front ever so
slightly. Jennifer reflexively turns--
SHERIFF STORCH (CONT'D)
Face to the wall!
Sheriff Storch puts his hand to the side of her face and puts
it to the wall. Jennifer cringes.
ISOYG PINK 10/29/09 37A.
Then he kicks her leg out wide with a firm Boot as he starts
to frisk her entire body, creeping his hands ever so close to
her crotch.
ISOYG PINK 10/29/09 38.
SHERIFF STORCH (CONT'D)
I want the whole story, now. The
whole thing.
(SLOWLY)
Start with telling me what those
boys did.
A long, dreadful beat hangs in the air as--
JOHNNY (O.S.)
Yeah, and tell the truth, show
Horse.
Jennifer snaps her head around again to see Johnny enter the
cabin as Andy and Stanely push Matthew in front of them.
Johnny walks over to Jennifer. He stands next to the
Sheriff.
JOHNNY (CONT'D)
Better yet, let's show him. As I
recall, those pretty little lips
couldn't get enough.
SHERIFF STORCH
(MOCK SURPIRSE)
Really?
Sheriff Storch then takes the barrel of his shotgun and
pushes down the top of Jennifer's blouse.
Jennifer's paralyzed as he runs the shotgun across her
nipple.
SHERIFF STORCH (CONT'D)
(TO JENNIFER)
They do this to you?
Jennifer is too terrified to speak. Sheriff Storch then
slips the shotgun down between her legs.
SHERIFF STORCH (CONT'D)
I asked you a question.
Jennifer trembles with fear.
JENNIFER
Please...
JOHNNY
Show him those teeth, Show Horse.
ISOYG PINK 10/29/09 38A.
Sheriff Storch brings the gun back up to her mouth - slides
it under Jennifer's top lip and pushes it up.
ISOYG PINK 10/29/09 39.
SHERIFF STORCH
Whinny.
With her top lip forced up by the barrel of the shotgun,
Jennifer can only make a GRUNTING noise. Sheriff Storch
takes the shotgun out of Jennifer's mouth and places it flush
against the side of her head. He pushes her to the floor.
Jennifer lets out a YELP as she falls.
SHERIFF STORCH (CONT'D)
I said, whinny.
Jennifer makes a pathetic SOUND. Not really a whinny, but
more of a half-cry, half-snort. Naturally, this amuses Andy
and Stanley -- who is, of course, filming it -- to no end.
STANLEY
Oh, man. Oh, man.
SHERIFF STORCH
(TO JENNIFER)
On your knees. And keep going.
Jennifer gets to her knees. As instructed, she whinnies,
interspersed with sobs. Johnny slaps her ass viciously.
JOHNNY
Keep whinnying!
Jennifer looks up at Sheriff Storch with pleading eyes.
Sheriff Storch picks her up by her hair but--
Jennifer comes up swinging -- connecting with the Sheriff's
face. The slightest scratch across his lip.
Sheriff Storch turns beet red. He backhands her across the
face sending her back down to the floor. A thin line of
blood flows from her nose. The Sheriff looks over to Johnny,
licks his lip and nods his head.
SHERIFF STORCH
Think you outta tame this little
mare of yours.
Johnny takes the Sheriff's lead.
JOHNNY
Alright, come on, Show Horse. Get
up. Or you won't get a sugar cube.
Jennifer struggles to her feet. She stands in front of them,
defenseless. Johnny grabs her hair and pulls her head far
back. She lets out a half-moan.
ISOYG PINK 10/29/09 40.
JOHNNY (CONT'D)
(TO MATTHEW)
Take off your clothes. We're about
to pop your cherry.
Matthew shakes his head. His wrist is not beat red from the
rubber bands. Snap!
JOHNNY (CONT'D)
I'm not asking, now cut that rubber
band shit faggot.
STANLEY
Come on, Matthew. You want to talk
the talk, then walk the walk, you
virgin.
Johnny flicks open a pocket knife. He tickles Jennifer's
bottom lip with the blade, then gently runs it down her chin,
past her neck, and between her breasts, just before stopping
at the waistband, then he slices the waistband of her pants -
her pants drop to the floor.
JOHNNY
(TO MATTHEW)
Do it now. Or else I slice her
chin to cunt.
This gets Matthew moving. A few seconds later, he's in his
boxer shorts, with his hands crossed in front of his crotch.
Johnny grabs him and throws him up against the wall. He then
yanks his boxers down. Matthew immediately covers up his
crotch.
STANLEY
Matthew, what the hell? It's not
even hard!
Matthew sweats profusely.
SHERIFF STORCH
Well, maybe it's not totally his
fault. After all, she's not doing
much to get his motor running.
Sheriff Storch looks back to Jennifer.
SHERIFF STORCH (CONT'D)
Dance.
Jennifer begins to cry again.
ISOYG PINK 10/29/09 41.
SHERIFF STORCH (CONT'D)
Stop it. Or else I'll really give
you something to cry about. Now
dance for the boy...
Jennifer starts to dance in the middle of the room. It is
sad, pathetic, and downright frightening.
JOHNNY
Come on. Move that rear of your's
Show Horse. Prance for us.
Sheriff Storch stalks around her, taking it all in, then he
walks back in closer to her, in her face.
SHERIFF STORCH
You dance like that in those city
clubs?
Jennifer closes her eyes. Tears stream down her face.
STANLEY
She dance like that they'd throw
her butt to the curb.
JOHNNY
Prance like you mean it. Like you
do when you want to get laid.
With a swift, hard backhand, Sheriff Storch smacks her ass
and hard.
ANDY
That'll get her moving.
The guys hoot and holler. Except for Matthew, who looks as
if he too is about to cry.
MATTHEW
Ok..kkay, I'll d...do it.
Matthew walks slowly over to Jennifer. With no warning,
Matthew takes Jennifer's face in his hands and kisses her.
The men HOWL with sadistic glee. Jennifer slaps him right
across the face, then she tries to run but--
Sheriff Storch forces her to the ground. He walks up to
Matthew.
SHERIFF STORCH
Don't waste my time you thickheaded
prick.
ISOYG PINK 10/29/09 42.
Johnny pushes Matthew down on top of her.
Jennifer instinctively swings and connects with Matthew's
face - He recoils in pain - but the guys cheer him on as they
decide to help him out. Andy tears open her shirt, Johnny
yanks down her panties. Jennifer claws and kicks at all of
them as she desperately tries to fight him off.
SHERIFF STORCH (CONT'D)
Get her legs!
Sheriff Storch kneels down and holds Jennifer's arms above
her head. Johnny takes one leg; Andy takes the other.
Matthew moves on top of her. Jennifer lets out an inhuman
SCREAM, the vocal culmination of it all.
ON JENNIFER'S FACE: Her eyes are tightly shut as she goes in
and out of focus.
Suddenly, a cell phone RINGS. Sheriff Storch looks down at
his pocket, then over to Stanley.
SHERIFF STORCH (CONT'D)
Put that thing down and hold her
arms, keep her quiet.
Stanley places the CAM on top of the table - it's still
getting everything.
Sheriff Storch walks a few paces away from the rape. He
looks down at the screen of his phone.
On the PHONE is a photo of an angelic little girl with the
banner of CHASTITY. Storch presses a button.
SHERIFF STORCH (CONT'D)
(INTO PHONE)
Hello, Angel.
CHASTITY (V.0.)
Hi, Daddy. You at the station?
Jennifer SCREAMS out. Sheriff Storch keeps his attention on
the phone call.
SHERIFF STORCH
(INTO PHONE)
No, Angel. Out on a call.
WIDESHOT: In the foreground, Sheriff Storch speaks casually
to his daughter. In the background, Jennifer's legs are the
only visual cues of the struggle that goes on right behind.
ISOYG PINK 10/29/09 43.
CHASTITY (V.0.)
Oh, sorry.
SHERIFF STORCH
(INTO PHONE)
It's okay. You need something?
CHASTITY (V.0.)
Daddy it's Sunday. You always make
breakfast before church.
SHERIFF STORCH
(INTO PHONE)
Yeah, yeah... well, Daddy's busy,
Angel. Tell mother I'm running a
little late.
Sheriff Storch stares at the phone for a second, then slides
the phone back into his pocket. As he turns back around
Jennifer, with all her strength, bucks Matthew off.
The guys start laughing hysterically.
She finally gets her hands free and lands a barrage of
punches in Matthew's face.
JOHNNY
Jesus, Matthew. You're getting
your ass whooped by a girl!
Matthew snaps: He wraps his hands around her neck and begins
pumping away like a lunatic. For some reason, the anger
allows him to perform.
Jennifer struggles to breathe. Luckily, before all oxygen to
her brain is cut off, Matthew stops. He SCREAMS as he
finishes. His hands fall from her neck as he collapses on
top of her.
The MEN all cheer as Matthew staggers to his feet -- weak.
He looks like he could throw up -- and he does - right off to
the side as the others just lose it!
Jennifer curls herself into a ball and SOBS.
SHERIFF STORCH
(TO MATTHEW)
You can thank us later.
Matthew recovers, gets up and runs to the bathroom. Johnny
points to the vomit.
ISOYG PINK 10/29/09 44.
JOHNNY
(TO STANLEY)
Clean this shit up.
STANLEY
Make her do it.
JOHNNY
(ANGRILY)
Just do it you piece of shit!
Jennifer grabs the end of the coffee table and forces herself
up. She steadies herself, keeping one hand on the wall, and
stumbles to the back door. Surprisingly, none of the men
attempt to stop her. They don't even look in her direction.
Jennifer staggers out the back door, trying to catch her
breath as she fearfully stumbles off into the woods.
42 EXT. WOODS - DAY 42
Like a zombie, Jennifer shuffles through the woods, oblivious
to the cold air, rocks, thorns, mud, as her bare feet move
her along.
She desperately continues on through, looking for a way out.
But in her state, she has no sense of navigation. She
continues to lose herself further and further into the
forest.
As she finally steps into the clearing, the melancholy notes
of a harmonica shatter the stillness... She's made her way to-
43 EXT. FISHING HOLE - DAY 43
Andy sits on a log blowing softly into the harmonica as the
rest of the guys lounge around casually as if they
instinctively knew she'd end up here. Jennifer is too
shocked to move, too tired to cry.
Jennifer tries to escape but Johnny stops her. He grabs her
by the shoulders and throws her to Andy who smacks her down
in the shallow water. Andy pounces down on her back.
Stanley kneels down right in front of Jennifer's face. He
places the MiniDV cam only a few feet in front of her. He
then turns the LCD so it's facing Jennifer -- so she can
actually watch herself being abused.
Andy pulls her eyelids wide open and holds them there.
ISOYG PINK 10/29/09 44A.
STANLEY
You ever get mace in your eyes,
bitch? It smarts.
ISOYG PINK 10/29/09 45.
Andy shoves her face down into the water - then pulls her up.
ON MINIDV CAM: Eyes pried wide open, Jennifer gags as the
dirty water pours from her nose - mouth - she desperately
tries to breathe --
Andy shoves her face down again and again as Stanley films.
STANLEY (CONT'D)
Hold her head down! Hold it down!!
JOHNNY
Alright. This filly's got a few
more races to run--
Sheriff Storch approaches Jennifer. Although she can't even
turn around, she senses their presence.
Storch gets down into her face.
SHERIFF STORCH
I hope you got some fight left in
you. I like it rough.
JENNIFER
(BARELY AUDIBLE)
Please. Please. I'm... so hurt...
Sheriff Storch spits onto the ground.
SHERIFF STORCH
Not to worry Darlin'. I'm an ass
man.
Sheriff Storch takes off his belt and unbuckles his pants.
He kneels down behind her..
Jennifer SHRIEKS as her face contorts with a completely new
level of pain as her head is thrust back down.
Then, out of the corner of her eye, Jennifer catches a
glimpse of the Sheriff's GUN, still sitting in its holster.
Her eyes immediately go to Stanley who's busy swapping out
the MINI-DV tape and replacing it with a new one--
Then she sees Matthew leaning against a tree, a vacant look
in his eye twisting a rubber band through his fingers.
Andy site on is ass, playing his harmonica... Her eyes
continue to scan the area for Johnny who's nowhere in sight.
Then immediately her eyes dart back to the GUN.
ISOYG PINK 10/29/09 45A.
As Jennifer's body is being jerked back and forth, she
reaches - and reaches - closer with each stretch when--
ISOYG PINK 10/29/09 46.
A heavy work boot comes down on her hand, crushing it.
Jennifer looks up.
Johnny glares down at her, then unzips his pants as he moves
in closer to her face.
JOHNNY
No teeth Show Horse. No teeth.
Her vision grows hazy. The sky, water, and ground all seem
to meld together.
TO BLACK:
BACK IN ON:
44 EXT. FISHING HOLE - LATER 44
Cruel laughter brings Jennifer back to. Somehow she manages
to lift her head to see Stanley pulling up his pants.
ANDY
Wow, Stanley, 30 seconds. Must be
a record for you.
JOHNNY
Don't you know you should wait for
the lady?
STANLEY
Bitch was too tight, even after
ya'll... Sides, she's all bloody...
I wanted to finish up.
ANDY
Right and we thought Matthew here
was gonna be the pussy.
JOHNNY
Don't be so proud of yourself Andy.
I clocked you at just over two
minutes.
Jennifer musters up her last ounce of strength and gets to
her feet. The men all stare, impressed at her resolve.
Jennifer's torn clothes hang loosely off her body as she
staggers away and wanders aimlessly away from them. It's a
miracle she can even walk.
She continues until the forest ends and she comes upon a--
ISOYG PINK 10/29/09 46A.
45 EXT. WOODS - DAY 45
She staggers up to the edge of the woods and comes to a
clearing, she leans on a tree and sobs hysterically, breaking
down.
AA45 EXT. BRIDGE, TREES - DAY AA45
Ahead of her a dirt road leads to a small bridge and an open
area.
Painfully she staggers towards the bridge, her beaten and
bruised body pained with each step.
ISOYG PINK 10/29/09 47.
The others appear behind her. They laugh at her as she
continues further down the bridge.
A45 EXT. BRIDGE - DAY A45
Jennifer doesn't bother to turn around. She continues down
the bridge, looking at the rushing water on both sides.
She moves to one of the railings.
The Sheriff looks at her and cocks the shotgun.
SHERIFF STORCH
Sorry. it was fun while it lasted.
JOHNNY
Yeah, too bad we have to put you
down, Show Horse.
in a final act of defiance, Jennifer falls back off the
bridge and into the murky, moving water.
immediately, the men rush to the edge of the bridge.
The Sheriff's gun cocked and ready-- Tracking down the water -
Not a sign.
They all look down, waiting, still nothing.
STANLEY
Where'd she go?
ANDY
She's gotta come up for air
sometime.
STANLEY
Current's got her. Shit, in her
condition she's already drowned.
Johnny looks to the Sheriff who's gun is trained on the water
waiting for something... anything.
JOHNNY
Sheriff?
Sheriff Storch pulls back his gun, and adjusts his hat, deep
in thought.
ISOYG PINK 10/29/09 47A.
SHERIFF STORCH
All you get your butts down there,
check under the bridge, both banks,
in the trees right now.
They all look at him.
ANDY
I ain't got my waders...
SHERIFF STORCH
I said right fuekin' now before I
throw you over!
46 EXT. BRIDGE -- DAY 46
The guys have returned. They are all muddy and wet. Storch
stands stoic still looking down at the water. He turns to
them.
JOHNNY
Nothin'...
SHERIFF STORCH
Listen up. 'Bout six miles
downstream the creek ends in
Hendersonville. somewhere between
here and there we're gonna find
her. We split up. We check the
banks, in the timber, under a rock,
hell if you see a hole big enough
for a rat I want it checked out.
And don't stop 'til you find me a
body.
(BEAT)
Don't just stand there, get!
STANLEY
(EXASPERATED)
Six miles, Sheriff? She's at the
bottom of the river. She's gator
bait. I think we should just let
it go.
A single vein pulses in Sheriff Storch's temple. He grabs
Stanley by the collar.
SHERIFF STORCH
(PURE RAGE)
YOU think? You don't have a
fucking thought.

ISOYG PINK 10/29/09 47B.
SHERIFF STORCH (CONT'D)
You just shut your trap and do
every goddamned thing I say. I got
a wife a kid and one in the oven.
There is no way that I'm going to
let anything happen to them because
you're too stupid and too sloppy to
clean up your fuckin' mess.
The weight of the Sheriff's words register on all of them...
except Matthew who oddly enough has started to come around --
as if he just woke up in the middle of this nightmare.
MATTHEW
She slipped and fell!
Matthew stands up, nervous, jittery, coming unglued.
MATTHEW (CONT'D)
None of us touched her. I saw it.
She was just... it was an accident.
Johnny rolls his eyes and shakes his head.
SHERIFF STORCH
Can someone get this dipshit outta
my face! I don't need none of you
screwing the pooch on this, least
of all numbnuts over there.
Sheriff Storch lets go of Stanley's collar and gives it a
quick pat, almost like an imperceptible apology for his
behavior.
SHERIFF STORCH (CONT'D)
Now let's move... find me a body!

47 EXT. HENDERSONVILLE RIVER - DAY 47
The reservoir is much calmer at these parts. Sheriff stands
on watch as-
Stanley and Andy come from the water in waders having just
searched the water.
Matthew stands where they just came from. He stays, staring
at the swamp like water as if Jennifer was somewhere in
there.
Johnny finishes off a cigarette and flicks it.
ISOYG PINK 10/29/09 49.
ANDY
Nothing. Not a damn thing.
JOHNNY
Well, what now?
Storch takes another look down the river, scanning it.
SHERIFF STORCH
The body'll turn up. One way or
another. Every day we check the
ravine, from the bridge, straight
through down here, then back. Two
shifts a day until we find
something. 'Cause with no body,
you're all as fucked as she is.
STANLEY
For how long?
SHERIFF STORCH
'Til I say! Okay?! Andy, you go
back to the cabin and get rid of her
shit. All of it! Burn it. And we
need to sanitize that place
something good. I don't want so
much as a stray hair left.
(TO JOHNNY)
Get her car to the shop. Strip it
down to its last damn nut.
JOHNNY
I'll buff out the serial numbers
too. Sell the parts at salvage.
Storch nods in approval as his eyes wander to the camera.
SHERIFF STORCH
.and give me that.
Sheriff Storch rips the camera from Stanley's hands. He
pulls out the tape.
He throws the tape to the ground and stomps on it, smashing
it to bits. Stanley opens his mouth to say something, thinks
better of it, and closes it quickly.

Matthew continues to stare off into the distance, waist deep
in the water.
48 ER's. WOODS - DUSK 48
CLOSE UP on a match. Dirty fingers pull the match across the
flint on the side of a matchbox. The match explodes to life.
A hand drops the match on top of Jennifer's belongings: her
clothes, laptop, the dry goods she purchased at the store.
It's all piled up on the grass.
Johnny, Stanley, and Andy watch quietly as the flames and
smoke from the fire reach into the sky. Andy throws a metal
container of gasoline onto the ground.
ANDY
So that's everything. Right down
to her little tit sling.
JOHNNY
And there was no trace at all?
Nothing in the woods? In the
shallows?
Andy shakes his head. Stanley rubs his eyes hard.
STANLEY
I'm starving, man.
JOHNNY
Well ain't that the headline. Soon
as we finish this and haul her car
into the garage, you can stuff your

49 EXT. SHERIFF STORCH'S HOUSE - NIGHT 49
Sheriff Storch pulls up to his house. He parks in the
driveway and gets out of his car.
He walks slowly up to his front door. Just as he reaches out
to grab the door handle, the front door opens. MRS. STORCH
is there to greet him.
MRS. STORCH
Gone all day. I got nervous.
Anything worth telling?
50 INT. SHERIFF STORCH'S HOUSE - NIGHT 50
Mrs. Storch closes the door behind them. Chastity races from

Sheriff Storch picks up his daughter and kisses her head.

51 EXT. EARL'S PLACE - DAY 51
Sheriff Storch's cruiser pulls up to Earl's house and comes
to a stop in a cloud of dust.

He enters. Immediately, he brings his hand to his mouth and
coughs violently.

Yeah, but business gets better.
That's the trade off.

Yeah, well, you're lucky I don't

DISSOLVE TO:
54 EXT. HENDERSONVILLE RIVER - DAY 54
THE CAMERA tilts down from the treeline and falls back on
Hendersonville. It's serene, peaceful and lonely.
Matthew sits in a small boat. He's been patrolling for
Jennifer's body, but now the boat just sits in the middle of
the swamp where the river runs out.
He stares out into the water as we slowly creep closer, and
closer until we're extremely close on his face, his eyes
unmoving.
A55 EXT. SERVICE STATION - DAY A55
POV: A car with two women pulls up to the gas pump. Johnny
comes out of the garage and saunters over to them.
Johnny playfully harasses the women. To a casual observer,
it would seem harmless. But we know it could be the prelude
to something unspeakable.
Finally, the women pull away. Johnny walks back into the
garage, a smug, self-satisfied smile on his face.
55 INT. SERVICE STATION, GARAGE - DAY 55
Andy is bent over Jennifer's car, or at least what's left of
it. At this point, it's nothing more than a shell. He wears
a welding helmet and is hard at work with a blowtorch.
ANDY
(from under the car)
Round up some tail out there?
JOHNNY
Maybe. Guarantee you they'll be
back.
Johnny looks up as Stanley stumbles into the garage, holding
a six pack of beer.
STANLEY
It's happy hour.

Johnny opens his hands, signaling Stanley to toss him a can.
Andy shuts off the blowtorch and lifts up the helmet.
ANDY

Johnny cracks open the beer and takes a gulp. He wipes the
back of his hand across his mouth.
JOHNNY
(TO STANLEY)
You bought beer? What'd your
mother put you back on an
allowance?
They all laugh.
STANLEY
Just figured we deserved a break.
Andy holds up his beer in a mock toast.
ANDY
To your moma.
Johnny points to Andy, his beer still in his hand.
JOHNNY
Just one, you hear me? Don't need
you passing out on your watch you
lightweight.
Andy takes a large sip.
ANDY
Heck, just let Matthew take all the
shifts. He's been down there
everyday anyway. Even when it's
not his turn.
They all look to one another.
JOHNNY
The fuck's he doing down there?
ANDY
I don't know. Last time I saw him,
he wasn't lookin' too good.
Maybe we should give him a break.
Pull him off all together.

Bullshit. It's been over two

As he turns away there is a bag of Stanley's pork rinds, he
grabs it and throws it at Stanley.

He looks down to the toilet, then the bathtub. He turns
around accidentally catches his reflection in the mirror.

His greasy, unkempt hair hangs in front of his eyes. He
pushes it to the side and stares at himself for a long time.
Finally, Matthew reaches to the light switch, he flicks it
off. Immediately, the room goes dark. But the second it
does...
JENNIFER is sitting on the bed just like when they first met.
DEAD, DRENCHED, BEATEN, BATTERED, AND DECAYED, BUT IT'S
JENNIFER --
Matthew is paralyzed with fear, he tries to turn as a
grizzly, decayed hand grabs his forehead. Another grabs hold
of his throat.
A mouth caked with dirt and dried blood begins to kiss up his
neck, his face-
Matthew screams wildly

Storch smashed to bits. That tape?
STANLEY
He didn't smash shit. I put in a
new one... Sheriff stomped the one
with nothing on it.
JOHNNY
You stupid retard piece of shit.
You tellin' me you kept the tape?
Johnny grabs Stanley by the neck and slams him up against a
car, and begins to Strangle the life out of him.
JOHNNY (CONT'D)
Where is it?!
STANLEY
(struggling to breathe)
I... don't... please--

Finally, Andy intercedes prying Johnny's hands off Stanley's
neck. Stanley falls to the ground, gasping for breath.
Johnny kicks him in the ribcage.
JOHNNY
You're too dumb to know how dumb
you are. Where's the fuckin'
tape?!
STANLEY
(struggling to breathe)
I had it. Now it's gone.
ANDY
Was ya robbed? Or did you leave it
somewhere?
STANLEY
It was in my place... I swear it.
JOHNNY
Who else knew about it?
A beat of silence hangs in theair.
STANLEY
Matthew. I showed it to him.
Off all their incredulous looks.
STANLEY (CONT'D)
Was trying to cheer him up.
JOHNNY
The kid's barely got one oar in the
water and you just took it and
shoved it up his ass.
Andy walks by Stanley and slaps him in the head for good
measure.
JOHNNY (CONT'D)
Unfreakin' real. Do you understand
the world of shit we are all in

You think Earl was some hunting

Stanley is still on the ground, making disgusting noises. A
combination of sobbing, puking, and wheezing.
STANLEY
You can't tell him Johnny. You
can't.
Johnny ponders for a second.
ANDY
Shit for brains here's right. We
gotta stick together now.
STANLEY
Please, Johnny. He finds out about
this... that I had the tape---
JOHNNY
No... no. We don't breathe a word
of this.
(points to them both)
Not a damn word. Sheriff gets wind
of this, we'll all be having
"hunting accidents": We clear?
Johnny slaps Stanley in the head again for good measure.
JOHNNY (CONT'D)
in the meantime, find that little
shitwhit Matthew. Me and him are
gonna have a talk.
66 INT. JOHNNY'S HOUSE - NIGHT 66
Johnny reclines on his couch, watching TV. One hand is down
his pants and the other holds a bottle of whisky.
Suddenly, there's a CRASH at his front door. Johnny looks up
and puts down the bottle, not overly concerned.
JOHNNY
Hello?
No answer at the door. Johnny groans and gets off the couch,
annoyed at being disturbed. He walks over to the front door
and yanks it open.
The front porch is empty. Just as he's about to close the
door, he glances down. There's a dead bird on the stoop.
Johnny narrows his eyes and looks out into the night. Then
he closes the door and returns to the couch.
ISOYG PINK 10/29/09 64.
But as soon as he picks up the bottle, there's another CRASH
at the front door. Johnny, now pissed, races to the front
door and swings it open.
A second dead bird has joined the first. Without closing the
door, Johnny backs up into his house.
A few seconds later, he returns to the front door, pistol in
hand. He steps out onto the porch.
67 EXT. JOHNNY'S HOUSE, BACK PORCH - NIGHT 67
Johnny holds the gun in front of him. He pivots slowly from
side to side, scanning the entire property. No more birds.
In fact, nothing at all. Dead silence.
JOHNNY
(THREATENING)
Who's out there?!
No answer.
JOHNNY (CONT'D)
Shit ain't funny fuckers!!! See
how funny a bullet in your ass is!
When there's still no response -- Johnny finally backs up
into the house and closes the door.
68 INT. JOHNNY'S HOUSE - NIGHT 68
Again, back to the couch. And again, the second his ass hits
the cushion, another CRASH.
JOHNNY
Got dammit!
This time, Johnny races to the door and yanks it open,
cocking the gun on the way and fires into the night.
69 EXT. JOHNNY'S HOUSE, BACK PORCH - NIGHT 69
Johnny causally looks down - but this time it's not a bird.
It's a shoe... Jennifer's shoe.
Johnny bends down and picks it up. He studies it. Frowns.
Someone's gone too far. Then he hears something scurry off
in-the distance.
ISOYG PINK 10/29/09 64A.
Quickly Johnny gives chase - leaping off his porch and racing
in the direction of the sound.
ISOYG PINK 10/29/09 65.
Johnny stops, listens, and waits. Nothing but silence. He
turns around in all directions.
Johnny spits and turns around to walk back and as he does, he
notices one of Matthew's colored RUBBER BANDS lying in the
mud.
JOHNNY
(UNDER BREATH)
Son of a bitch.
70 INT. SHERIFF STARCH'S HOUSE - DAY 70
Sheriff Storch enters, holding a bouquet of flowers. He
closes the door behind him and walks in.
SHERIFF STORCH
Helen?
Within seconds, Mrs. Storch materializes, apron on and wiping
her hands on a dish towel.
MRS. STORCH
Oh, they're beautiful...
Sheriff Storch walks over and gives her a kiss on the cheek.
SHERIFF STORCH
I've been --
MRS. STORCH
No need to explain. You just
buried your close friend. And you
haven't taken a single day off.
You're only human.
SHERIFF STORCH
I guess.
MRS. STORCH
Hey, maybe you can help me while I
put these in water.
SHERIFF STORCH
Help with what?
MRS. STORCH
We got this tape delivered it don't
fit our machine.
SHERIFF STORCH
What tape?
ISOYG PINK 10/29/09 66.
Mrs. Storch scurries over to the coffee table, grabs the
MINIDV tape and hands it to him.
MRS. STORCH
it came this morning...
But as Storch looks over the tape, the color, the markings...
no, it couldn't be, he smashed that tape.
MRS. STORCH (CONT'D)
I think it might be Chastity's
recital.
SHERIFF STORCH
Did Chastity see this?
MRS. STORCH
No, like I said, we couldn't get it
to play.
SHERIFF STORCH
Where is she?
MRS. STORCH
Sleeping, why?
Storch wipes his face with his hand, then shoves the tape
into his shirt pocket.
SHERIFF STORCH
I'll... I'll be back...
Sheriff Storch quickly turns away from his wife and hurries
out the door.
Mrs. Storch stands at the door and watches with growing
curiosity as the cruiser peels out of the driveway, a cloud
of dust in its wake.
71 EXT. JOHNNY'S HOUSE - DAY 71
Andy and Stanley pull up and get out of the truck as Johnny's
been pacing.
ANDY
So what's all this about, Johnny?
Johnny takes out Jennifer's shoe and throws it at them. They
both dodge a hit and look at the shoe on the ground.
ISOYG PINK 10/29/09 66A.
STANLEY
(TERRIFIED)
Where'd you get that?
ISOYG PINK 10/29/09 67.
JOHNNY
Somebody threw it at my fuckin'
door.
Then snaps Matthew's rubber band at them it hits Stanley who
winces.
STANLEY
Jees, Matthew? Come on--
JOHNNY
Did either of you find that little
prick?
ANDY
No. No one knows where he is--
Suddenly, a car SCREECHES up - it's Storch and it looks as if
he is going to drive his cruiser straight through the fence.
STANLEY
Ah shit. This ain't good.
Johnny picks the shoe up.
Storch blasts out of his car, shotgun in hand. He cocks his
shotgun and levels it directly at Stanley as he backs him up,
planting the shotgun into his cheek.
STANLEY (CONT'D)
(CRYING)
Please, Sheriff! I didn't do
anything.
SHERIFF STORCH
Then you want to tell me why this
was dropped off at my house?! To
my WIFE!
Storch shoves the TAPE in Stanley's mouth - gagging him.
Then turns to Johnny.
SHERIFF STORCH (CONT'D)
What's on that tape?! Is this some
kind of fucked up joke? I smashed
the damn thing myself!
JOHNNY
Nah, genius over here reloaded.
Tape you smashed had nothing on it.
Storch looks to Johnny - then snaps his gun towards him.

Andy starts to laugh as Starch trains the gun back on them-
STORCH
Shut your pie hole. Think this is
funny?! I'll have him shit it down
your throat when's he done eating
it. Got that boy?
.LAM; The Sheriff fires a shot into the air. They all jump,
Stanley covers his ears like it hurt.
SHERIFF STORCH
See, there's two kinds of crazy
people. One likes to get buck
naked and howl at the moon. The
other kind does the exact same
thing, only in my backyard. The
first kind'I don't have to deal
with, you know?
The Sheriff walks right into Stanley's face as he continues
to chew the plastic.
SHERIFF STORCH (CONT'D)
The second kind, well... you're in
my yard.
JOHNNY
It's Matthew, Sheriff. Stanley kept
the souvenir, but Matthew's the
one that took it.
The Sheriff backs off a beat, sizes up the situation.
Johnny brings forth the shoe. Sheriff's eyes seethe with
rage.
JOHNNY (CONT'D)
The crazy bastard left me a
present.

guilty.

SHERIFF STORCH (CONT'D)
And that's after I'm done shoving

Storch takes a deep breath. He looks at all of them, fuming.
ANDY
We don't know. Isn't coming around
much.
JOHNNY
Much? At all. Kid's fucked three
ways to Sunday. We can't find him
and trust me, we been looking.
SHERIFF STORCH
You losers couldn't find your own
asses with both hands and a map.
(BEAT)
You got 24 hours. You understand?
I will not hesitate. Not for one
second.
He fixes them all with a steely gaze and loads the shotgun
again.
72 EXT. CABIN - DAY 72
Matthew, disheveled and weary, stumbles up the steps of the
cabin. We get the feeling that this is almost a daily
pilgrimage, as if he returns here to assuage his guilt.
He rests his head on the wooden railing of the porch, for a
moment it looks as if he's about to cry.
VOICE (O.S.)
(from inside the cabin;
creepy and ethereal)
Matthew...
Matthew's head snaps up. He's almost certain he imagined it,
just like he's been imagining many things these days.
VOICE (O.S.) (CONT'D)
Math...ewwww...
MATTHEW
Who's there?
Matthew walks cautiously into the cabin.
ISOYG PINK 10/29/09 70.
73 INT. CABIN - DAY 73
But there is no one in sight. Matthew looks around from side
to side, his eyes wide, filled with madness... . and then, he
hears it again.
VOICE (O.S.)
Math...eeeeeee... . you...
It's coming from upstairs - Matthew sprints up.
74 INT. CABIN, UPSTAIRS - DAY 74
Matthew, wild-eyed and panicked, gets to the top of the
steps. He takes a heavy breath and then moves into the lone
bedroom. seconds later he comes out, obviously empty.
MATTHEW
(SCREAMS)
Where are you?!
Barely a second later, he receives his answer.
VOICE (O.S.)
Matthew...
This time, it's definitely coming from downstairs. Matthew
glances down the staircase. When he sees that nobody is
waiting at the bottom, he heads down there.
But once his foot touches the third step, the board gives out
as Matthew crashes down the steps, ass-over-tea kettle.
75 INT. CABIN - DAY 75
MATTHEW'S POV: His vision is completely blurry. He
struggles to get his bearings as he lays at the bottom of the
stairs; the side of his head rests on the floor. A thin
line of blood has already started to run down his cheek.
Matthew's vision starts to come back into focus as a BLURRY
IMAGE starts to move away from him. As the IMAGE gets
further away - it comes into focus - JENNIFER
We see her now, wounds healed, only the faintest hint of the
beating and trauma she went through.
ISOYG PINK 10/29/09 71.
Matthew grunts and groans as he tries to get up--
MATTHEW
(STAMMERS)
I... I knew you were alive. I knew it.
Jennifer turns to him now.
JENNIFER
How do you know, Matthew?
Matthew props himself up with his hands and manages to get
into a sitting position.
MATTHEW
Huh?
JENNIFER
How do you know I'm alive? Are you
sure you're'not dreaming again?
Matthew shakes his head quickly from side to side. He's not
sure of anything any more.
MATTHEW
I...am I dreaming?
Jennifer pats the couch next to her.
JENNIFER
Come here. Come sit down.
Matthew staggers to his feet. He's overcome with emotion.
MATTHEW
I... I... need to tell...
Jennifer holds a single finger to her lips.
ISOYG PINK 10/29/09 72.
JENNIFER
Shh... it's all okay, Matthew. I
know that none of this was your
fault. You tried to help me.
MATTHEW
I did... I really did.
JENNIFER
I know that, Matthew. Now come.
Matthew sits down next to Jennifer. It's almost as if some
force is controlling him. Matthew looks into her eyes.
He leans forwards and rests his head in Jennifer's lap. He
finally lets himself go, like a child having a meltdown.
MATTHEW
(SOBBING)
I'm sorry. I'm so, so sorry.
JENNIFER
(stroking his head)
Shh...I know. I know you are.
Matthew's so caught up in the moment, that he fails to notice
A ROPE from the tool shed with a good SLIT KNOT being snaked
around his neck.
JENNIFER (CONT'D)
But tell me again, Matthew. I want
to hear how sorry you are.
Matthew's eyes fly open. Jennifer's hands jerk backwards.
The rope digs into his flesh. He tries to speak but his
windpipe can't produce any sound.
Matthew rolls to the floor, Jennifer never loses her grasp.
She stands over Matthew, twisting the rope as hard as she
can. His eyes bulge, the veins in his face protrude--
Realizing he's about to slip away forever, Matthew displays
one last burst of strength but Jennifer uses her leverage to
get her foot on his chest and pulls harder.
Frightened and furious, Matthew whips Jennifer around again.
But she refuses to let go.
ISOXG PINK 10/29/09 73.
Finally, Matthew's body has had enough. He feet stop kicking
and just twitch. Then he just gasps like a fish dying out of
water.
Jennifer bends over Matthew. She's only inches from his
face. He's alive, but in terrible shape.
JENNIFER (CONT'D)
(whispers in his ear)
Tell me again...
CLOSE ON: Matthew's mouth. He can't actually speak; his
voice box shattered. But he mouths the words.
MATTHEW
(STRUGGLING)
I'm sorry.
JENNIFER
I'm sorry? That's just not good
enough.
She pulls the slip knot around his neck again and begins to
CHOKE HIM--
JENNIFER (CONT'D)
Now I want you to cry like a little
girl for me.
Matthew begins to wail.
A75 EXT. CABIN, DAY A75
Matthews screams echoes out through woods, but his, much like
Jennifer, go unheard.
DISSOLVE TO:
B75 EXT. WOODS. NIGHT B75
Silence. A full moon hangs low in the night sky, casting an
eerie glow over the entire area. A sense of calm restored.
DISSOLVE TO:
C75 INT. DILAPIDATED HOUSE - NIGHT C75
Jennifer walks into focus -
We see her now, wounds healed, only the faintest hint of the
beating and trauma she went through.
ISOYG PINK 10/29/09 73A.
But in her eyes --- her eyes still tell the whole story. This
is no longer the Jennifer we've known. She looks down.
ANGLE ON: A BIBLE, the old moldy one from the dilapidated
shack. It rests on the windowsill - opened to a passage.
CZrO$E ON: Exodus 21:23-25: .And if any mischief follow,
than thou shalt give life for life, Eye for eye, tooth for
tooth, hand for hand, foot for foot, Burning for burning,
wound for wound, stripe for stripe..
Jennifer looks up.
JENNIFER
Forgive me father, for I will sin.
76 EST. HENDERSONVILLE RIVER - DAY 76
Andy and Stanley make their way to the falls. They carry
flashlights, but they're turned off as day has broken.
Stanley shovels pork rinds into his mouth, and offers some to
Andy. They are tired, weary, and you get the sense they have
been looking all night.
STANLEY
You want some? My last bag.
ANDY
No, get that shit out of my face.
STANLEY
What's your problem?
ANDY
I'm tired, I'm hungry--
STANLEY
I offered you--
ANDY
I don't want that shit. I want
real food, I want my bed, I want

ANDY

You kept the tape! We're all

(BEAT)
Now let's just split up and get
this over with.
They both separate. Stanley heads around into the woods,
Andy heads the other way.
77 EXT. HENDERSONVILLE RIVER, WOODS - DAY 77
We're with Stanley as he walks further into the woods, his
eyes scan in all directions... but there is nothing there.
78 EXT. HENDERSONVILLE RIVER, WATERLINE - DAY 78
We're with Andy as he walks the waterline.
ANDY
Matthew?!
Then, Andy notices an uneven ripple in the water. He thinks
nothing of it... until it happens again.
This catches his eye. Slowly he makes his way over. The
water has calmed now, but still, Andy has a sense that
something is not right.
ANDY (CONT'D)
Matthew!
As he gets close to the water - he now sees his reflection...
He squints his eyes trying to get a better look at what is
beneath the surface --
WHOOSH! SOMETHING runs right behind his back - the entire
reflection caught in the water --
Andy spins around - as he staggers into the water - no one is
there... nothing.
ISOYG PINK 10/29/09 74A.
just the calm breeze through the trees -- but then a small
outcrop of bushes rustle as if something just moved through.
ISOYG PINK 10/29/09 75.
Andy calms - then makes his way over with purpose-
ANDY (CONT'D)
Only making it worse for yourself,
Matt.
Andy picks up his pace as he nears the tree line - right
where he saw the movement.
Out of the corner of his eye, he sees another branch swinging
unnaturally. He races over--
CLOSER: He can actually hear breathing - it's getting louder-
ANDY (CONT'D)
Matthew?-
STANLEY JUMPS OUT--
STANLEY
Boo!
ANDY
Jesus! You bastard!
Stanley laughs so hard he starts to cough -- Just as they're
about to continue on - the sound of a harmonica breaks
through. The same eerie tune.
ANDY (CONT'D)
What the--?
STANLEY
Prick's playing your song.
He looks at Stanley.
ANDY
The hell with the Sheriff, I'm
gonna kill him myself... MATTHEW!!
79 EXT. WOODS - DAY 79
Andy and Stanley run through the woods, trying to find the
source of the sound.
ANDY
You're ass is grass Matthew!!
Branches and leaves fly by as Andy barrels through the
foliage. Stanley tries to keep up, but it's no use.
ISOYG PINK 10/29/09 76.
The SOUND changes direction - they look off to see SOMEONE
flash through the trees.
ANDY (CONT'D)
There he is. That way!
STANLEY
Matthew! You're a dead man!
They race off after the sound.
80 EXT. WOODS - DAY 80
They continue on - Stanley doesn't look too good.
ANDY
Don't you pass out on me. I ain't
dragging your ass back.
Suddenly, the tune stops. Andy stops in his tracks, trying
to figure out which way to proceed. Suddenly, Stanley hears
another sound. Crying.
STANLEY
Hear that?
They're off again. About fifty yards away, hidden behind the
trees, is the SHACK. Something slips around the side of the
structure. Stanley immediately spots what he thinks is
Matthew.
STANLEY (CONT'D)
Matthew!
ANDY
He's in there all right.
STANLEY
Good, cause he's coming out in pieces.
Andy races ahead leaving Stanley trying to catch his breath
behind him.
81 INT. DILAPIDATED HOUSE - DAY 81
Andy enters. The shack appears as we first saw it, only now
there are remnants of recent life.
ANDY
Matthew! Where the fuck are you!
ISOYG PINK 10/29/09 77.
Under the table is a pile of filthy old clothes. It almost
looks like... a makeshift pillow.
He picks up a moldy tin can which once contained some
preserved meal. He tosses it to the ground.
82 EXT. DILAPIDATED HOUSE - DAY 82
Stanley waddles out the back of the shack. He stops. About
twenty yards away and sees JENNIFER leaning against a tree.
STANLEY
Why you little bitch...
Stanley races over - Just as Stanley gets close - SNAP!! A
hidden BEAR TRAP clamps down on Stanley's leg - the pain is
intense as he screams out - He staggers backwards and falls
to the ground in agony
STANLEY (CONT'D)
Oh, God! Oh, my fucking God!
ON ANDY: As he exits the Shack to see Stanley on the ground
writhing in pain.
STANLEY (CONT'D)
Please! Andy! My fucking leg!
Andy races over to assist him. As he offers Stanley his
hand, he notices Stanley's eyes catching a glimpse of someone
behind him. But as soon as he turns, the wooden BAT, the one
from the fishing hole, catches him flush across the face!
He's down and before Stanley knows it she cracks him in the
back of the head.
TO BLACK:
BACK IN ON:
83 INT. DILAPIDATED HOUSE - DAY 83
Andy's eyes flicker open. He sees a hand wrapping a rusty
wire around the contact of an old car battery. Then he looks
up and sees a bare light bulb flicker on.
He's draped lengthwise over a horse trough so his torso is
completely over the basin. His arms and legs are secured
with ropes.
ISOYG PINK 10/29/09 77A.
Suddenly, the sound of RUSHING WATER from inside the trough.
Andy looks down. A dirty hose hangs over the mouth of the
trough. Brown water flows from it... Filling it.
ANDY
(PAINED SCREAMS)
Help! Somebody! Help me!
ISOYG PINK 10/29/09 78.
His nose and face are busted - it hurts to scream.
With the trough filling up quickly, Andy realizes it won't be
long until the water is above his head.
He cranes his neck upwards. After all, were he to stay face
down, he would drown -- just like Jennifer would've.
84 EXT. DILAPIDATED HOUSE DAY 84
STANLEY'S POV: It's Jennifer and in her hand is his video
camera.
JENNIFER
I know. You like to watch. Don't
you. Don't you worry, I'll give
you quite a show.
She sets the camera on top of a tri-pod right in front of his
face, frames up and hits record. She looks up to him.
Stanley's arms are tied behind a tree, his head is held in
position, duct tapped back against the tree.
His legs are anchored to the ground. The bloody mangled one
still in the bear trap that bites and gnaws at his leg with
every move.
JENNIFER (CONT'D)
Since you like to watch.
She flips the monitor of the camera toward him just like he
did to her.
She stands in front of Stanley's face. Stanley wants to say
something but his pain is too intense.
JENNIFER (CONT'D)
Can't talk, can you? Well, maybe
it's because you're hungry.
Jennifer goes to grabs something behind her.
JENNIFER (CONT'D)
You know, you have to eat some real
nasty shit out here to stay alive.
STANLEY
Bbbb... bitch! Let me go!
She grabs his nose and pulls open his mouth shoving a MAGGOT
INFESTED RODENT into his mouth.
ISOYG PINK 10/29/09 79.
JENNIFER
What's wrong, you don't like it? I
prefer the maggots to the meat.
Jennifer site down next to Stanley. She glances over to the
monitor to see what he is looking at. Then she reaches over
and into a burlap sack.
Stanley stares straight ahead, at the monitor in front of
him.
Jennifer reaches into the burlap bag and takes out a roll of
fishing line. Then she takes out a pack of fish hooks.
Stanley's eyes go wide.
Jennifer removes the hooks from their package. She holds one
between her thumb and forefinger and studies the barbed tip.
Smiling to herself, she threads the hooks with fishing line.
STANLEY
Wh...what are you doing with that?
JENNIFER
(LAUGHS)
Oh... just some fishing. I know
how much you guys like to fish.
Finally, when she's finished, she scurries behind Stanley's
head. From behind him, she grabs his eyelid and pulls it
away from the eyeball itself.
STANLEY
What are you.. Please don't...
Then she pops the hook through the lid and pulls the fishing
line back over his head.
Stanley screams something fierce as she continues to thread
his eyelid open, slowly, methodically, delivering as much
pain with every pull of the line, from one eye to the next.
His eyeballs bulge unnaturally, twitching wildly--
All Stanley can do is stare ahead and watch himself on the
monitor.
JENNIFER
I'll be back before you have a
chance to blink.
Jennifer stands up and brushes herself off and walks to--
WITH ANDY: Jennifer comes over and slaps him in the head.
ISOYG PINK 10/29/09 80.
JENNIFER (CONT'D)
How ya' doing sport?
ANDY
Please... please... I can't...
JENNIFER
Please? I thought, no, I'm pretty
sure you said something like
this...
Jennifer grabs a wad of his HAIR and SMASHES his face into
THE WATER-
JENNIFER (CONT'D)
Suck it bitch.
She pulls his head back up.
JENNIFER (CONT'D)
Does that ring any bells?
Jennifer gets real close to his ear--
JENNIFER (CONT'D)
SUCK--
She slams his head back down and holds it - then up--
JENNIFER (CONT'D)
IT--
She slams his head back down again and holds it then up--
JENNIFER (CONT'D)
Bi tch.
She holds his head down for a very long time as his body
struggles - then up.
Andy gasps for breath as Stanley's screams get louder--
JENNIFER (CONT'D)
I think Stanley's calling me. I'll
be right back. If you need me-
She walks off--
ISOYG PINK 10/29/09 81.
BACK TO STANLEY: Both eyelids hooked open, blood and tears
stream down his face, a gruesome sight.
JENNIFER (CONT'D)
Like the show so far?
(BEAT)
Wait, it gets better.
STANLEY
Please... Please... My eyes... I
can't take it anymore... please...
JENNIFER
Let me help you.
Jennifer takes a slender knife from the bag. Working
quickly, Jennifer guts a FISH.
JENNIFER (CONT'D)
Here, this might feel better.
She leans in and smears the bloody fish guts onto Stanley's
eyeballs.
STANLEY
85 TNT. DILAPIDATED HOUSE - DAY 85
The water has filled up the trough and is overflowing. Andy
struggles to lift his head up to draw a few quick breaths.
Jennifer climbs onto his back and GRABS his hair pulling his
head up.
JENNIFER
Don't drown too soon.
Andy tries to buck her off, gasping for breath, buckling
under her added weight. Jennifer slams his head back into the
water, and then up again... then down as she holds it.
JENNIFER (CONT'D)
Hold it... hold it... hold it...
Then she pulls his head back up as Andy spits water all over.
ANDY
(CHOKING)
Fuck you... fuck you...
ISOYG PINK 10/29/09 82.
JENNIFER
Now is that any way to talk to a
lady?
And back down with his head - it is exhausting to watch.
WITH STANLEY: As a single CROW shows up by his head.
He tries to look at the bird to see what it is doing, but he
can't move.
ON THE MONITOR: The CROW has jumped onto Stanley's head -
looking at his eyes -- It begins to peck at them. Stanley
SCREAMS!
ON ANDY:
Andy continues to struggle. A few seconds later, Jennifer
returns, carrying a large bucket.
JENNIFER (CONT'D)
I'm impressed. You got a lot of
fight in you. Let's see how you do
now.
Jennifer brings forth the bucket.
ANDY
Wha-- what is that?
JENNIFER
oh, just some lye I found laying
around.
ANDY
Jesus, please, what the - no!
Jennifer pours the lye into the bucket - the fumes make Andy
gag. But he holds his neck up as long as he can - he does
not want to put his face down.
Jennifer come around in front of him.
JENNIFER
Let's see how long you can keep
that pretty little face of yours.
Andy strains to keep his head faced at her.
ANDY
Fuck you.
ISOYG PINK 10/29/09 83.
JENNIFER
You already did that. I didn't
enjoy it much. Now it's my turn to
fuck you.
Andy's neck is straining to keep his head out.
JENNIFER (CONT'D)
That's an awfully big head you got.
Your neck must be getting tired.
Every vein in his neck now bulges. Andy's eyes start to
water with tears.
ANDY
(STRAINED)
Please...
JENNIFER
Andy?
ANDY
Wh--what...
JENNIFER
Fuck you.
Andy's neck gives out dunking his head in the lye bath. He
writhes with pain as he lifts it back out - BEET RED and
BURNING--
ANDY
Ahhhhhhh!!!
Jennifer laughs and walks out of the shack as Andy gasps,
chokes and spits for his life as-
STANLEY'S head is covered in crows.
86 EXT. DILAPIDATED HOUSE - DUSK 86
The crows jump all over pecking at Stanley's eyes, his cheeks
- he is a bloody mess as he lets out a final guttural scream!
A86 INT. DILAPIDATED HOUSE - DUSK A86
Andy's body continues to writhe in pain. With yet another
burst of strength he lifts his head out of the lye-bath
revealing a face burnt red, puffy, oozing puss, skin flaking
off and his eyes are a ghastly, milky white, pussy, and
bloody.
ISOYG PINK 10/29/09 83A.
Finally his body stops convulsing. His head and midsection
drop into the water. Blood seeps up the surface from his
mouth.
B86 EXT. DILAPIDATED HOUSE - DAY B86
Stanley is dead. His one eye stares straight ahead. Where the
other one should be, blood has poured all the way to the
ground.
C86 INT. DILAPIDATED HOUSE - DAY C86
Andy is dead.
EXT. DILAPIDATED HOUSE - NIGHT
The house is quiet now. A light bulb flickers from inside.
B87 INT. SERVICE STATION - MORNING B87
Johnny site at his desk, a phone planted to his ear.
JOHNNY
.since when? Since last night...
No Sheriff, I ain't heard from 'em.
Johnny notices something in his small surveillance TV.
ANGLE ON TV: A truck pulls up to the station, a hot woman in
a skimpy outfit gets out of the truck. She pops the hood
obscuring her once she does.
Johnny sits up in his seat.
JOHNNY (CONT'D)
Look, like I said, as soon as
dipshit or fuckface show up or call
in, I'll let you know. ASAP. Now I
got a customer.
Johnny hangs up and walks out of the station.
ISOYG PINK 10/29/09 84.
87 EXT. SERVICE STATION - MORNING 87
A truck is parked at the pump. Its hood is up and a woman
leans over the engine. Her ass is perfectly framed in a
tight miniskirt, from which two, long flawless legs descend
into a pair of blood-red high heels.
Johnny walks over to her, wiping his hands on his bandana as
the woman shimmies her hips, almost inviting him to approach
her. And Johnny, being Johnny, doesn't need much.
Johnny is close enough to touch her. He snickers a bit,
never taking his eyes off her ass.
JOHNNY
Can I fill it up for you, ma'am?
The woman wears sunglasses and slowly turns to Johnny.
Johnny takes a long look from bottom to top - and when he
gets to her face - it registers - but before he can do
anything, Jennifer swings a tire iron and catches him right
across the jaw.
A handful of teeth, ejected by a spurt of fresh blood as
Johnny falls face-first into the ground.
88 INT. DILAPIDATED HOUSE - DAY 88
Johnny is buck-naked. His hands are tied tightly together
and pulled above his head, running through an eye hook that
has been screwed into one of the shack's wooden beams. His
eyes flicker.
Jennifer walks up to him, right to his face.
JENNIFER (O.S.)
It's date night.
Johnny cranes his neck and twists his body to see who's there
as Jennifer walks out of the shadows. She saunters up to
Johnny.
JENNIFER (CONT'D)
Your mouth doesn't look so good.
Maybe you should--
With a massive TUG she pulls back on the bridle that bites
into his raw, bloody mouth.
ISOYG PINK 10/29/09 84A.
JENNIFER (CONT'D)
(SEDUCTIVELY)
--Show me your teeth.
ISOYG PINK 10/29/09 85.
JOHNNY
FTHUCKKK YOU--
He grunts out a hellacious scream as his body bucks wildly.
JENNIFER
Oooh, you're an ornery stallion,
aren't you?
Jennifer tilts her head and looks at him, as you would a
fascinating piece of art.
JENNIFER (CONT'D)
Guess I'm gonna have to tame you.
JOHNNY
Bithh...
With a bunch of teeth missing, Johnny's lisp is pronounced.
Jennifer saunters around him seductively. She removes
something from behind her back and brings forth a rusty pair
of pliers.
Jennifer steps closer.
JENNIFER
Oh, that's the problem. You still
have some teeth left. We're gonna
have to fix that.
Jennifer clamps the.pliers down tightly on Johnny's tooth.
He tries to move but between the bridle cutting into his
mouth and the pressure on the tooth, it's sheer agony.
Jennifer jerks her hand from side to side, squeezing the
tooth as hard as she can in the pliers. Finally, the root
breaks free of the pulp and Johnny's tooth is extracted.
Johnny flails around in severe agony.
JENNIFER (CONT'D)
Save your strength. You got a few
more races to run.
Johnny screams something unholy. Jennifer holds the tooth up
in the air and inspects it.
JENNIFER (CONT'D)
I have to admit, I didn't think it
went that far down.
Jennifer sticks the pliers in again, latching it onto another
tooth.
ISOYG PINK 10/29/09 86.
Johnny's eyes bulge with fear as he kicks and screams pulling
his shackles taut --
Jennifer rips down on the pliers - her face is splattered
with blood as the tooth comes free.
Jennifer discards the tooth and goes right back--
JENNIFER (CONT'D)
PLEATH--
As Jennifer begins to extract yet another tooth, Johnny's
weary body convulses in so much pain that he actually pisses
himself.
JOHNNY
Pleath...for the loth oth thod,
JENNIFER
That's disgusting. Even your boys
didn't piss themselves. Be a man,
will you?!
Jennifer takes the bridle and yanks Johnny's around, the pain
is so bad he can hardly fight. He grimaces and spits out a
mouthful of blood at her.
JENNIFER (CONT'D)
Now that's not gonna get you a
sugar cube.
(BEAT)
Aw... what's the matter Show Horse?
I thought that's how you liked it?
No teeth... right?
JOHNNY
Justh kill me. Kill me you bith.
JENNIFER
We'll get to that.
Jennifer pulls out a gun.
JENNIFER (CONT'D)
(SING SONG)
Look who's here. My boyfriend.
Remember him?
She takes the gun and caresses it across his face, his chin,
and then she SHOVES it in and out of his mouth.
ISOYG PINK 10/29/09 87.
JENNIFER (CONT'D)
Give him a kiss.
(BEAT)
Like you really mean it.
Johnny finds renewed strength and starts to buck and writhe.
ABOVE: The eye hook is starting to pull loose.
With every touch of motion, white-hot pain courses through
Johnny's body.
JENNIFER (CONT'D)
Breathe through your nose. It
helps. You know, like it was your
first time.
Johnny's body flails with all his might as-
ABOVE: The eye hook loosens a bit more--
JOHNNY
(SPITTING BLOOD)
WHORE--
JENNIFER
I hear sometimes a stallion can get
a little headstrong. They don't
want to be trained... refuse to be
broken...
(BEAT)
But everyone has their breaking
point, don't they?
(BEAT)
You just have to find it. There's
a way to break any animal. Do you
know how they do that with horses?
Do you, Johnny? I do.
She walks away from Johnny and picks up the rusted old
gardening sheer.
She walks back to Johnny, menacingly slicing the sheer
open... closed.. And again...
JENNIFER (CONT'D)
You slice off every ounce of their
foul manhood.
She slices it closed again.
As Jennifer closes in, the look in Johnny's face says it all.
But there is simply nothing he can do about it.
ISOYG PINK 10/29/09 88.
Jennifer gets even closer, looking at Johnny's eyes as she
reaches down towards his penis--
JENNIFER (CONT'D)
You geld them.
SLICE! - Johnny's eyes rolls back as he SCREAMS!!!!
She holds the piece of limp, pink flesh in her hand.
Despite everything he's been through, this brings forth an
entirely new level of pain. He screams and bucks as the
EYEHOOK continues to loosen.
Jennifer bends down for a moment, bringing something up from
the floor. She comes back to a screaming Johnny as she--
SHOVES HIS CASTRATED PENIS INTO HIS MOUTH.
JENNIFER (CONT'D)
No teeth show horse... no teeth.
Johnny flails with all his might, screaming, spitting as--
ABOVE: The eye hook finally gives way. Johnny's tied hands
come crashing down directly on top of Jennifer.
Jennifer goes flying with a bloody enraged Johnny now free as
he grabs and claws after her.
Jennifer desperately kicks and scratches to get away from
this hideous, blood-soaked monster - but Johnny grabs hold
onto her leg - he drags her closer as she loses her grip--
With one solid kick, Jennifer connects with Johnny in the
face - he sprawls out from pain - as she gets up and races
out the door - Slamming it closed as she exits. She leans up
against it holding it closed.
89 EXT. DILAPIDATED HOUSE - DAY 89
Within seconds the door is kicked at, banged at, punched at -
Johnny screams wildly from inside as-- Jennifer holds it shut
with all her strength.
Slowly the cries and banging fade until there is nothing but
silence.
Slowly she slides down on her bottom... exhausted, spent and
completely devoid of all emotion.
ISOYG PINK 10/29/09 89.
90 INT. DILAPIDATED HOUSE - DAY 90
HIGH ANGLE on Johnny. His lifeless body lays on the floor
surrounded by a pool of blood.
91 INT. SQUAD CAR - DAY 91
Sheriff Storch drives through town. He scans each side of
the street. His phone rings.
He picks it up and answers it.
SHERIFF STORCH
Hi, honey.
MRS. STORCH
What's wrong?
SHERIFF STORCH
Nothing, why?
92 INT. SHERIFF STORCH'S HOUSE - DAY(INTERCUT W/ABOVE) 92
MRS. STORCH
Why? Because I can hear it in your
voice, that's why.
Sheriff Storch laughs. She knows him too well.
SHERIFF STORCH
Long day, that's all.
MRS. STORCH (ON SCREEN)
Well, perk up. Chastity's new
teacher is here.
SHERIFF STORCH
Mrs. Novick?
MRS. STORCH
No, for the honors program. Do you
remember anything?
SHERIFF STORCH
Oh yeah, okay.
MRS. STORCH
Yeah, just moved here from the
city.

ISOYG PINK 10/29/09 89A.
MRS. STARCH (CONT'D)
Said she's going around meeting all
her students' families. I think
it's nice.
ISOYG PINK 10/29/09 90.
Sheriff Storch GRUNTS. He doesn't find it so nice.
SHERIFF STORCH
Well, I'll be home when I can.
Busy today. if I don't make it,
send her my regards.
Sheriff Storch ends the call.
Two seconds later the phone rings again. He looks at it,
annoyed, answers.
SHERIFF STORCH (CONT'D)
I said I'd be there as soon as --
CHASTITY
Hey daddy! Where are you?
SHERIFF STORCH
(ANNOYED)
I already told your mother,
Chastity. I'm working. I'll do my
best to get home.
CHASTITY
But I really want you to meet my
new teacher. She is way cool.
Sheriff Storch rolls his eyes.
CHASTITY (CONT'D)
Here, just say hi.
Chastity hands the phone over to - JENNIFER HILLS - who is
sitting comfortably on the sofa next to Chastity, her hand
embracing the little girl.
JENNIFER
Howdy, Sheriff.
SHERIFF STORCH
Hi. It's truly an honor to speak
with you Miss...
JENNIFER
Hills. Jennifer Hills.
ISOYG PINK 10/29/09 91.
Sheriff Storch's face contorts upon hearing the name.
SHERIFF STORCH
Excuse me?
JENNIFER
I have to tell you, it's really
been a pleasure meeting your
family. You have a wonderful
daughter with a bright and
promising future.
SHERIFF STORCH
What the fuck do you think you're
doing!--
JENNIFER
We'll see you soon, Sheriff.
SHERIFF STORCH
No - wait--
But the call ends.
SHERIFF STORCH (CONT'D)
Chastity! ... Chastity!
Sheriff Storch throws the phone to the ground and slams on
the gas.
93 EXT. SHERIFF STORCH'S HOUSE - DAY 93
The squad car screeches to a stop right in front of Sheriff
Storch's house.
Hearing the commotion, Mrs. Storch walks out onto the porch.
She's almost knocked to the ground as her husband comes
barreling up the steps.
MRS. STORCH
What is --
Sheriff Storch grabs his wife's shoulders.
SHERIFF STORCH
Chastity, where is she?!
Mrs. Storch has absolutely no idea what is going on. In her
mind, their daughter couldn't be in better hands.
ISOYG PINK 10/29/09 91A.
MRS. STORCH
What -- she... she went to Hansen
Park with Miss Hills.
(MORE)
ISOYG PINK 10/29/09 92.
MRS. STORCH (CONT'D)
She wanted to get to know her
students in the program before the
year started.
Sheriff Storch lets go of his wife.
SHERIFF STORCH
Goddamnit!
MRS. STORCH
(GROWING CONCERN)
Who is she? Who is this woman?
He turns and runs back to his squad car, gets inside, and
pulls away even faster than he came.
94 EXT. PARK - DAY 94
The squad car skids to a stop on the grass of the park. It's
a modest recreation area that has seen better days.
Sheriff Storch jumps out of the car, still leaving it
running, and sprints into the park.
A few feet away, an empty swing blows gently in the breeze.
The metal brackets screech loudly with every movement.
Sheriff Storch spins around in circles, a maelstrom of
confusion. He looks around frantically for anything that
will give him a clue as to the whereabouts of his daughter.
95 INT. SQUAD CAR - DAY 95
Sheriff Storch gets back inside. He immediately picks up the
CB. But just as he opens his mouth to speak, lie glances in
the rearview mirror. His eyes meet Jennifer's.
Before he can turn, Jennifer pistol whips him in the temple.
He falls forward, his head smacking into the steering wheel.
The HONKING of the horn echoes throughout the empty park.
96 INT. DILAPIDATED HOUSE - DUSK 96
Sheriff Storch comes to. Blood trickles down from the side of
his head.
He's bent over the table, pants at his ankles. His SHOTGUN
propped up behind him with the barrel inserted into his ass.
With every move, a scorching pain courses through his body.
ISOYG PINK 10/29/09 93.
SHERIFF STORCH
Ahhhhhh!
Jennifer walks over to the table and rests her elbow on it.
Sheriff Storch speaks through gritted teeth.
JENNIFER
Does that hurt? Come on, I thought
you were an ass man, Sheriff.
SHERIFF STORCH
Where is she, you bitch?
Jennifer slams the gun deeper. The Sheriff's body goes stiff.
The Sheriff screams again.
JENNIFER
I'd be careful how you speak to me
at the moment, Sheriff. (BEAT)
By "she," I assume you mean your
daughter?
SHERIFF STORCH
What'd you do to her?
JENNIFER
She really is lovely, Sheriff. So
young. So sweet. I mean, can you
imagine?
SHERIFF STORCH
Imagine what?
JENNIFER
Imagine if someone had done this to
her.
Jennifer walks behind the Sheriff. She wraps her fingers
around the barrel of the gun and shoves it in, deeper.
The Sheriff's expression is one of unbridled agony. Jennifer
continues to sodomize him with the shotgun.
JENNIFER (CONT'D)
Someone like Andy?
(HARDER)
Or Stanley?
(AND HARDER)
Or Johnny?
(and even harder)
Or more likely you, you sick perverted
fuck.
ISOYG PINK 10/29/09 94.
97 EXT. TOWN ROAD - DUSK 97
Two squad cars, SIRENS BLARING, speed down the road.
98 TNT. DILAPIDATED HOUSE - DUSK 98
Jennifer as she takes a spool of fishing line and walks
straight across the room.
SHERIFF STORCH
(FRANTIC)
Please, she's just an innocent girl.
JENNIFER
So was I.
She gets to the corner of the room where a hulking figure
site tied up in a burlap sack. Jennifer removes it revealing
a dead MATTHEW... or is he?
She ties the line to Matthews wrist. The other end is tied
onto the shotgun's trigger.
SHERIFF STORCH
(DESPERATE)
You're not going to get away.
JENNIFER
Neither are you.
99 EXT. DIRT ROAD - DUSK 99
The SQUAD CARS pull off and park as the DEPUTIES grab guns
and race off into the woods.
100 INT. DILAPIDATED HOUSE - DUSK 100
Matthew stirs a bit as he starts to come to.
JENNIFER
He'll be waking up soon. If I were
you, I'd tell him not to move.
SHERIFF STORCH
(pained to talk)
I'm begging you. Don't do this.
We can figure something out.
Matthew stirs again.
ISOYG PINK 10/29/09 95.
JENNIFER
Sorry, Sheriff...
She leans in close to his face.
JENNIFER (CONT'D)
"It was fun while it lasted".
101 EXT. DILAPIDATED HOUSE - DUSK 101
The Deputies converge on the SHACK, guns drawn.
102 INT. DILAPIDATED HOUSE - DUSK 102
Sheriff Storch tries to wriggle free - but every move he
makes is the most painful experience imaginable.
Matthew continues to stir awake, his eyes flutter open.
SHERIFF STORCH
Matthew don't!--
But it's too late - a startled Matthew jumps back--
MATTHEW
--Sheriff!
BANQ/// Matthew is splattered with blood, and body parts.
103 EXT. DILAPIDATED HOUSE - DUSK 103
The Deputies react as the gun shot rings out through the
area. They KICK the door in to see--
104 INT. DILAPIDATED HOUSE - DUSK 104
Matthew's crouched in a ball on the floor, covered in blood,
the Sheriff, blood sprayed across the table, eyes wide open,
DEAD.
105 EXT. WOODS - DUSK 105
Jennifer walks off as the sounds of the last remnants of the
echoing gunshot fade into nothing. Jennifer doesn't miss a
beat. She continues to walk off.
ISOYG PINK 10/29/09 95A.
106 EXT. DILAPIDATED HOUSE - DUSK 106
The cops drag a blood soaked Matthew out of the cabin. He is
a disturbed, psychotic, babbling mess.
ISOYG PINK 10/29/09 96.
A106 EXT. WOODS - DUSK A106
Jennifer turns to the dilapidated shack. in the distance she
sees the officers escorting a handcuffed Matthew out.
SLOW MOTION: As Matthew is wildly kicking and screaming in a
furious panic. The Officers try to subdue him.
Jennifer just stares, devoid of emotion. Then, after a
minute, she turns and continues to walk off into the woods.
ON JENNIFER: As she continues to walk away - and then - as
she continue closer to CAMERA - the smallest hint of a wry
smile - nearly imperceptible, but it's there, creeps across
her face.
