INT. JAILCELL – NIGHT
John and Damon are both sleeping. Damon awakes after a sudden rumble which shakes the whole cell. Damon stands up and looks around the cell.
Damon shakes his head and sits down. The cell then shakes again. This time John wakes up.
JOHN
What is that?
DAMON
I don’t know.
Damon stands up again and John sits up. The rumble happens once more.
DAMON
Shit.
Damon grabs on the bed so he don’t fall over.
DAMON
This ain’t good.
Suddenly the floor caves in and John and Damon both fall. The whole building collapses.
CUT TO:
INT. JAILCELL
John wakes up. He is sweating. He looks around the cell and sees Damon is awake.
DAMON
Bad dream?
John looks around the cell.
JOHN
Yeah. Just a bad dream.
DAMON
Get used to it. I still have them.
John looks at Damon.
DAMON
I barely sleep anymore.
John nods his head.
DAMON
Have your dreams ever become reality?
John shakes his head at Damon.
JOHN
No.
DAMON
Feel lucky then, it’s a bad feeling. It’s like you seen it all before and you know what’s going to happen. And you can’t do shit about it.
JOHN
What happened?
DAMON
This place.
JOHN
You dreamt about this place?
DAMON
No in this place. I was dreaming in here one night. That fat fucker came in here and took me away. He made me kill a person… a child.
JOHN
You dreamt that?
DAMON
Yeah and the next day it happened. What did you dream about?
JOHN
That this whole place collapsed and we all died.
DAMON
Now that would be a good dream.
Damon starts to laugh followed along by John.
DAMON
It’s a terrible feeling, killing a child.
JOHN
Did he have a reason?
DAMON
Fuck no. He is sick in every way possible. And not even the Devil could change that.
John shakes his head. John then notices a light from the corner of the cell.
JOHN
What is that?
John gets up and walks over to the corner of the room. A hole is at the bottom. John gets on his knees and crawls over to it. He looks in it.
After a minute he gets up. He has a shocked look on his face. Damon looks at him, scared. He then gets on his knees and crawls over to the hole. He looks inside.
INT. UNKNOWN ROOM
A woman is seen tied to a chair. A sock is tied around her head and in her mouth.
INT. JAIL CELL
DAMON
Holy shit.
The woman then looks up towards the hole. Damon quickly moves out of the way.
JOHN
What?
DAMON
She heard me.
John looks over at the hole.
DAMON
She better not say anything. I swear, she better not.
John shakes his head.
DAMON
Don’t worry man. If she wants to live she would keep her mouth shut.
CUT TO:
INT. UNKNOWN ROOM
The girl is sitting there. She is staring up at the hole. An Agent then walks in wearing a black ski mask. The girl looks at the Agent. The Agent quickly walks over to her.
AGENT
What up Jill?
The Agent then gets to her and slaps her really hard. Jill almost falls over. Jill stares at him.
AGENT
Oh you can’t talk?
(Beat)
I’m sorry.
The Agent gets the sock out of her mouth.
JILL
You stupid mother fucker I hope you fuc-
The Agents punches her in the face.
AGENT
The only time YOU say something is when I ask the fucking questions!
Jill nods her head. The Agent looks at her.
AGENT
Psh.
The Agent then pulls out a gun and shoots her in the head.
CUT TO:
INT. JAIL CELL
JOHN
Shit!
John quickly moves away from the hole. Damon moves over towards the hole and looks in it.
DAMON
Who shot her?
JOHN
The fucking guy in there!
Damon looks over at John.
DAMON
There is no guy in there.
Damon looks back in the hole. Suddenly a metal pipe is pushed through the hole and hits Damon the eye. Damon falls back and the whole pole is in the room.
JOHN
Oh shi-
John quickly grabs the pole and stands by Damon. John looks around.
JOHN
You okay Damon?
John continues to look around.
DAMON
Yeah.
Damon gets up. A bloody red mark is around his eye.
DAMON
They’ll be coming now.
JOHN
I know.
DAMON
How many you think?
JOHN
I have no clue.
DAMON
Let me see the pole real quick.
John looks at him.
DAMON
Just for a second.
John hands Damon the pole.
DAMON
Thank you…
Damon quickly swings the pole where the hole was. The hole becomes bigger. He then continues to hit it.
SMACK!
SMACK!
SMACK!
SMACK!
The hole then becomes big enough for a person to fit through.
DAMON
Let’s go.
Damon jumps down the hole followed by John.
INT. UNKNOWN ROOM
There is no one else in the room except for the dead woman. Damon hands John the pole and smiles. Damon walks over to a table where two guns are seen.
Damon picks up both guns.
DAMON
You want the pole or the gun?
John smiles and walks over to Damon and takes the gun. He puts the gun in his pocket and continues to carry the pole.
JOHN
We gotta get outta here.
DAMON
It’s impossible to get out of here unnoticed. We need a plan.
JOHN
What about the elevator.
DAMON
People use the elevator John.
JOHN
Not inside the elevator. The path it uses.
DAMON
You mean the elevator-
JOHN
Yeah.
Damon looks around the room.
DAMON
First we need to get to the elevator without being seen.
JOHN
Think we can do it?
Damon smiles.
DAMON
Of course we can.
CUT TO:
INT. HALLWAY
An empty hallway with many doors. A door is seen opened and John sticks his head out it.
JOHN
Come on.
John leaves the room followed by Damon. John looks down each end of the hallway.
DAMON
I don’t see the elevator entrance. Do you remember where it was?
John continues to looks down both ways.
JOHN
This way.
John goes down the right side. Damon follows him. John stops.
JOHN
(Whispering)
Be very quiet around here. The rooms may be occupied.
Damon nods his head and they continue to slowly walk down the hallway.
DAMON
(Whispering)
There it is.
Damon points at the elevator which is down the hallway a little bit. The walk faster towards the elevator.
They make it to the elevator. The doors are closed. John looks at Damon.
Damon nods his head. John pushes the elevator button. After a minute the doors open. No one is inside. John and Damon walk on the elevator.
INT. ELEVATOR
The elevator doors close.
DAMON
Shit. How do we get out of this?
John and Damon both look around the elevator.
JOHN
There.
John points at the top of the elevator. There is a small hatch seen. Damon smiles and reaches up to it.
Damon opens it.
DAMON
Oh fuck!
JOHN
What?
DAMON
Look.
Over the hatch is a wall. No one can fit.
DAMON
There is not enough room.
JOHN
Fuck! Fuck! Fuck!
John clenches his fists.
JOHN
What the hell are we suppose to do?
DAMON
We have to go down on another floor.
JOHN
And risk getting caught.
DAMON
It’s the only way.
JOHN
Shit!
Suddenly the elevator starts to move down.
DAMON
Oh shit.
JOHN
GO!!!!
Damon quickly jumps up and grabs on the ends of the exit. He then pulls his self up. John jumps and grabs on it. He tries to pull his self up but can’t.
He falls back down.
JOHN
Dammit!
DAMON
Here.
Damon reaches his hand to John. John grabs it. Damon pulls John up slowly. He gets half of his body up.
The elevator then stops moving. John quickly pulls him self up and puts the hatch back down at the same second the doors open.
Two guards walk on the elevator.
CUT TO:
INT. ELEVATOR SHAFT
Damon and John are quietly holding their mouths and crouched on top the elevator. The elevator then starts to move up.
John looks at Damon and his eyes get big. Damon points at a ladder which is seen at the end. They both slowly and quietly move towards the ladder. They both make it to the ladder and get on it.
The elevator passes them.
DAMON
Holy shit dude. That was crazy.
JOHN
I know, I know.
They both start to climb down the elevator.
