Alone

EXT. LOCK, NIGHT
October 18th 1990, Nine oclock at night. Thomas is standing by
the handrails of the small bridge and is smoking a cigarette
THOMAS, a tall man with black hair swept back on each sides.
He works as an arms dealer for the government and hates
religion. He doesnt show any remorse or response to emotional
occurrences and feels religious people are deluded. He can
technically be classed as a psychopath.
THOMAS RHYDER (V.O)
In this world you have the good and the bad. A path that is
chosen by the man who writes his own life, but there are
fucking delusional beings that decide that their life doesnt
belong to them. That their life is in the power of another
that will judge their actions, like a fucking butcher deciding
which meat survives and which meat fries.
700 000 pounds I couldve made with the shipment of cocaine
from Peru to the US. It was all loaded onto the submarines
ready to go until the dock workers turned up and reported it
to the cops. Kill them all I said but no one fucking listened.
(Shouting) No one fucking listened. Apparently God doesnt
like murderers.
My business burnt to shit, my moneys all gone and now Hitmen
are coming to kill me because they think I stole the drugs.
If Im dying so are they so are they. Jimmy, Chris, Tommy,
Ringo, Hendrix and Enoch. Every single one. They sin but not
murder. Its time for me to play their God.
EXT. PUB, NIGHT
THOMAS RHYDER (V.O)
For where jealousy and selfish ambition exist, there will be
disorder and every vile practice. Oh Jimmy, the sin of Envy
has chosen you. Youve always tried to be better than (MORE)

me. But here, just this once Ill let you say it. Your wish is
my command. Have fun in hell you fucker.
INT. HOUSE, NIGHT
THOMAS RHYDER (V.O)
A good name is more desirable than great riches; to be
esteemed is better than silver or gold. But being esteemed
isnt better than money and cocaine is it Chris. More money,
more drugs, more euphoria. My present to you will be one that
youll never forget or one youll remember. Let the hunger
feast on you.

INT. HOUSE, NIGHT

THOMAS RHYDER (V.O)
But I tell you that anyone who looks at a woman lustfully has
already committed adultery with her in his heart. The
attention deteriorates his mind, it makes him blind. It makes
Tommy weak, malleable controllable. It makes him so deluded
you can stick a 6 inch bladed heel right through him, leave
him with a broken heart. Its funny when the tables turn isnt
it Tommy.
INT. HOUSE, NIGHT
THOMAS RHYDER (V.O)
Let someone else praise you, and not your own mouth; an
outsider, and not your own lips. Pride, pride, pride. Ringo,
why Ringo. You wouldve had all the pride if you shot them but
you fucking didnt listen, you didnt listen either. Ah fuck
it, a man who talks but doesnt act. Heres a present.
INT. KITCHEN, NIGHT
THOMAS RHYDER (V.O)
Their end is destruction, their god is their belly, and they
glory in their shame, with minds set on earthly things.
Hendrix your always set and ready for a nice big meal. Ready
to rid the hunger building within him. Ready to not give a
shit about those who starve. Less food for him may not mean
more food for others, but will sure mean its not wasted on
scum.

INT, BEDROOM, NIGHT

THOMAS RHYDER (V.O)
The soul of the sluggard craves and gets nothing, while the
soul of the diligent is richly supplied. Shhhhh, we dont
want to wake him up now do we. On the bed is where Enoch lays,
on the bed is where Enoch is going to stay, and on the bed is
where Enoch is going to forever, fucking, remain.

THOMAS RHYDER (V.O)

Do not be quickly provoked in your spirit, for anger resides
in the lap of fools. A fool is what God thinks I am. The fool
is the one who believes in you. The fucking fool is everyone
else on this world. I . I am greatness. I have taken the
lives of 6 after they took everything, everything away from me
and Im not letting anyone take mine but me. And if we ever
meet for you to decide if its hell or heaven, throw me in
hell. Descanso en la paz bastardo.
