SUSPECT

INT.BATHROOM
Shaun frantically washes his hands of blood. Looking up
to the mirror he sees the splattered blood on his shocked
face, after a moment of looking at his bloodied face, he
frantically washes his face.

DEAN
(Knocks on bathroom door)Hey! Are you alright.

SHAUN
(Voice breaks)Yeah, I’ll just be a minute

CUT TO:
INT.LOUNGE
Shaun sits alone in a chair in the middle of a lounge
while he whispers into the phone, talking secretively to
the person on the other side.

SHAUN
What are you doing?
(Pause)
(Confused)Why?
(Pause)
Why would the police come here?
(Pause)
Why are you so worried?
(Pause)
(Satirically)You won’t go to prison
(Pause)

Entering the room Dean notices Shaun


talking on the phone and decides to sit
down on a seat behind him to listen in on
him.

SHAUN
Listen, you don’t have to worry it’s sorted.
(Pause)
He doesn’t go back to work till Monday, right?
So we’ve got all weekend to deal with it.
(Pause)
(Angrily) Just get it done!
(Pause)
Don’t mess this up.

Shaun hangs up the phone and rubs his face in


frustration.

DEAN
Are we going to talk about it?

Shaun turns around to look at Dean with a panicked look


on his face before calming himself down.
SHAUN
(Dismissively)It’s nothing
A moment of silence fills the room.

DEAN
It doesn’t sound like nothing

A look of thought cover Shaun’s face

SHAUN
(Sternly)It hasn’t got anything to do with you to do with
you
(Pause)
(Angrily)I think you should mind your own business.

A moment of silence falls over both Dean and Shaun once


again. Shaun then looks to his hands as vision of his
hands being covered in blood crowds his minds before he
bursts out of his seat and runs out of the room to the
bathroom.

CUT TO:

INT.BATHROOM
Shaun frantically washes his already clean hands, he
finishes cleaning his hands then spends a moment staring
into the mirror.

CUT TO:
INT.LOUNGE/KITCHEN
Shaun walks into the kitchen with a tired look on his
face, grabs a bottle of whiskey, sits down on a stool at
the counter and pours himself a drink. Dean has remained
in the same seat.

DEAN
(Monotonically)I thought you hated that stuff?

SHAUN
Well, I don’t anymore

DEAN
(Memorably)I remember you’d always complain about how it
taste like cat piss.

SHAUN
(Blankly)Still does.

Shaun takes a sip of his drink

DEAN
(Confused)Then why drink it?

SHAUN
Helps you to stop thinking?

DEAN
(Curiously)What do you need to stop thinking about?
SHAUN
(Blankly)Shut up

Shaun finishes his drink

Dean stand up from his seat in frustration and walks up


to Shaun standing behind him.

DEAN
What is it? What is it you need to act like a real
person?

SHAUN
I need you to stop putting your nose where it doesn’t
belong.

Dean face fills with visible frustration

DEAN
Get out.
(Angrily)I said get out! I know what you’ve done so just
get out, I can’t keep doing this.

Shaun mumbles under his breath, as Dean continues

SHAUN
(Confused)He never said that

Dean turns Shaun’s stool around so they are face to face


as he continues to argue.

DEAN
Can you hear me!? I’m telling you to leave, what happened
to you, you never used to be like this, I thought we were
friends.

Shaun gets a fierce look in his eyes as he begins to


become angry.

SHAUN
Stop it!

DEAN
Stop it? You come here shouting your orders, I don’t have
to listen to you, like everybody else does. I’m not going
to let you get away with what you’ve done.

SHAUN
(Furiously)Shut up!

A moment of silence follows as Dean and Shaun look each


other dead in the eyes, before Dean breaks the stare and
turns away in frustration. As Dean turns around it is
revealed that his back is covered in blood from a
gunshot.

DEAN
I can’t take it, it’s just I feel like we’ve done this
thousands of times.

Shaun looks at his hand where a gun has suddenly


appeared.

SHAUN
(Desperately)Not again.

INT.BATHROOM
Shaun frantically washes his hands of blood. Looking up
to the mirror he sees the splattered blood on his shocked
face, after a moment of looking at his bloodied face, he
frantically washes his face.

Cut To:
Shaun sits back in the seat and begins to dial his phone
as he directly forward but while Dean Walks behind Shaun
and sits down on a chair. This initiates a montage
replaying the events of the film but each time Shaun
seems to get more and more dishevelled until an ending
shot of Shaun sitting in the chair again but with tears
in his eyes.

Cut To:
INT.VOID
Shaun is suddenly in a void tinted with a light blue
light where he looks around confused until a voice
echoes from the distance,(the voice seemed to be
two voices talking in unison, one seemed to be
normal and charismatic while the other seemed to
mimic the other voice but in a much lower, darker
tone. The voice seemed to emit cunningness.

VOICE
Dean, you are a hard man to find.

DEAN
(Confused/afraid)What? Who are you? Where’s Dean?

VOICE
Now that’s a name I remember

DEAN
(angry/Threatening)I swear if you’ve done
anything to hurt him.

VOICE
Me? Seems like you’ve already done enough
Dean’s corpse is revealed to Shaun lying still in
the middle of the darkness. Shaun moves over to
Dean’s body, kneeling over him he says to him.

SHAUN
(Desperately)Get up! Get up! Please!

Dean’s body suddenly opens his eyes shooting to


life for long enough for him to grunt a few words
to Shaun. The blue tint of the void shifts to a
green

DEAN
(Like an Oldman out of breathe) Y..Y..You did
this…

Dean’s body suddenly becomes limp again as Shaun


looks down at Dean’s once again dead body as the
green tint returns to the light blue.

VOICE
Do you see what you’ve done (Cont’d)
Shaun looks up from Dean’s body
(Cont’d)What you’ve caused

SHAUN
No, No I would never (Cont’d)
Dean looks back down at Dean’s dead body before
again looking back up to the voice)
(Cont’d)What do you want from me!?

The voice talks To Shaun in a villainous


sympathetic tone.
VOICE
Oh, poor sweet Shaun
(Pause)
I’ve come to apologise

SHAUN
I don’t know what you’re talking about, I want
out of this place

VOICE
All you have to do is what I say

SHAUN
What? No I’m not going to listen to you, let me
out of here
VOICE
If you’d just listen I could expla…

SHAUN
No! You listen to me I don’t want to hear it, I
want out. DO YOU HERE ME!

The voice suddenly explodes with anger after


hearing this. As the voice explodes with anger
the void becomes a harsh red.

VOICE
(Furiously)I’M TRYING TO HELP YOU!!!

SHAUN
I DON’T WANT YOUR HELP,

VOICE
(Still furious)FINE THEN. STAY HERE REPEATING THE
SAME LOOP OVER AND OVER, PRETENDING LIKE YOU’VE
DONE NOTHING WRONG!PURE AND INNOCENT! ACTING LIKE
YOU’RE THE ONLY ONE WITOUT BLOOD ON YOU HANDS!

SHAUN
You stole everything from me.

VOICE
YOU WOULDN’T HAVE ANYTHING IF IT WASN’T FOR ME!
The voice suddenly pulls itself together causing
the red light to be replaced with the light blue
light once again.
(Calmly)Huff. But you don’t care, go on, stay
here it’s what you deserve anyway.

With that the voice disappears along with Deans


body and the blue light leaving Shaun in complete
darkness.

SHAUN
Wait how I get out of here? What do I need to do?
Come back! Come back!

Shaun is left screaming alone in the darkness

In the distance remanence of the voice can be


heard saying one last thing.

VOICE
It’s time for you to wake up
