Scene 1: The Beginning 
(The scene begins in the afternoon as the screen opens with a building. It appears to be a police station as couple of people are walking up and down the steps. The scene transitions from the hallway to a nearby door that says “Interrogation room” which a few detectives interrogating a criminal. Inside of the room, a young man is sitting in his chair with a glum look on his face and has handcuffs on his wrists. A two officers took the young man out to the prison visiting room where a man and a woman are sitting while being patient. The woman looks anxious while the man looks disappointed and upset. The officers brings out the keys to get the handcuffs off of the young man’s wrists. This young man is muscular, tall, handsome and has orange hair. He sits down and looks up and see the faces in front of him. His name tag says “Aiden” on it. The officers stand by their post as they walk and turn around to make sure he doesn’t do anything.). 
Aiden: I can’t believe that I get to see you guys.
(He chuckles in a sarcastic tone and doesn’t seem to care that he’s behind bars.). 
Aiden: I mean, I have to assumed that this might be a new thing for you guys to think that I became this way. It’s like I fell down and cracked like an egg. I should at least and try to make some friends. 
(He looks at their name tags as it says “Peter” and “Grace” on it. He leans back in his chair and sighs.). 
Aiden: Look, I apologize if I didn’t call you or text, but I had a rough start in my life. I never had a penny to spend on anything I wanted. All I did was to make sure nothing happened or else it will get messy. 
Peter: This is the last thing we’re expecting you right now. So don’t try to make a joke because it’s not enlightening. 
Aiden: Oh? I would think you guys expect me to go on a very long trip or maybe going to a safari so I can be a person with normality. 
Grace: This is not the time to fool around. 
Aiden: It seems like it’s about time. A group of old boys want to wrestle, but I was like, “Nope! Can’t do that!” That’s when I was getting into wrestling squabbles because they ask about daring people and stuff. 
Peter: Okay, that’s enough, Aiden. This is serious right now. You did something awful and you’re going to pay the consequences. 
Aiden: I know. Which is why I won’t be apologetic or try to be congenial about it. 
Peter: Do you really think that you can try to make a mockery after you attack and kill someone? 
Aiden: It’s my plan that I did on my own. 
Grace: Aiden, the detectives said they found your fingerprints and you were the one that had blood on your clothes. 
Aiden: So what? I made it sloppy. Isn’t that enough for you both? 
Peter: No! You killed someone! You’re the one who did the slaughter! You have no shame on what happened! 
Aiden: It wasn’t like I went over and try to take a lamb, right? 
Peter: But you killed a woman! 
Aiden: She was an abusive wretch. And I had to end her fucking reign of depravity. 
Grace: Aiden, don’t you talk like that! 
Aiden: I can say what I want and do whatever, too, Grace. I know you hate it, but people do it. It’s not like kindergarten to first grade. 
Grace: I’ll have you know that I don’t approve of you being scornful in that way. And I don’t like the attitude you’re having towards adults, especially to Peter and I.
Aiden: Don’t try to preach, okay? You two told me that I should be seeing a therapist about my problems at home. Well, I didn’t do that. And I’m not going to because I can’t right now.
Peter: You should at least tell us what the hell happened. 
Aiden: Oh, god! You’re not gonna smother me with a bunch of questions about the time at school, right? 
Peter: This isn’t school! And you should be thinking about going to college after you’ll be released from here.
Aiden: Oh, my god. If you guys have to set up that morning routine, I might jump out of the window. 
Peter: You are not jumping out any window, young man! You are going to tell us about the mess you got yourself in. 
Aiden: I don’t have to tell you anything about what happened because you’re not my parents. You’re just foster people who took care of me and it’s only temporarily. 
Grace: We care about your wellbeing, Aiden. And we know you’re in a cell right now, but tell us about everything that happened to you, and we’ll leave you alone. 
Aiden: I’m in a cell, so that’s means I have been alone for the most part. 
Peter: You better get your act together, boy! 
Aiden: If there’s an inmate you wanna fight, find some of them. 
Grace: We’re not here to discuss about fighting people, Aiden. We’re here because we saw it on the news. The police found fingerprints and saw a lot of blood which you kill someone at that moment. 
Aiden: Look, it’s nice to see you guys again, but it’s been like what? Ten years? 
Grace: Yes. It has been a long time. We tried contacting you to see what you’ve been up to, but you have been ignoring us. 
Aiden: Because you try to ruin my life for your own petty reasons. 
Peter: No one is trying to ruin your life, but you had a bad attitude about every little thing that we’re trying to do. Instead, you went to a jail cell. 
Aiden (Sighs): You guys think I can pull off a prison break? 
Peter (Sternly): No! You sound insane right now. Maybe you should go see a therapist for your stubbornness and mental state that cause this attitude in the first place. 
Aiden (Chuckling in a sarcastic way): That’s just fucking bullshit. 
Grace: Aiden, please. Let us help you so you won’t do something like this again.
Peter: You have to tell us on what happened and what was the reason for you to do something that is destructive that you’re going to get locked up for. 
(Aiden knew he had to tell the truth, but he didn’t want to share any detail because his experience was so painful yet he had happy moments as well. He had to be honest and sticks to his gut. He sighs and looks them straight in the eye.). 
Aiden: Okay, I’ll tell you what happened, but don’t judge all of it. 
Grace: We’ll be very understanding about your experience, Aiden. Just tell us about the whole thing. 
Peter: We want the truth, and only the truth. The district attorney should be involved in this subject. 
Grace: Peter, we can’t bother the attorney right now. The detectives told us that they’re handling all of it. 
Aiden: Handling what? 
Peter: They’re were at the crime scene where the woman you killed was a rich person who had money, and the people were scared when they heard a crash. 
Grace: After they searched the whole place, they found your car keys, your wallet and a cleaver that was stained with blood. 
Peter: That weapon was on the floor after you fled the scene. 
Aiden: Yeah, I got that from the drawer in the kitchen. 
Peter (Shocked): What?! 
Grace: In the kitchen?! What on earth were you doing with that?! 
Aiden: I got out of control. 
Peter (Scoffs in disbelief): Out of control! No wonder you’re into bad stuff as a child! 
Aiden: Look, I know what I did was wrong, okay?! 
Peter: That’s the same bullshit justification that got you locked up like a caged animal. 
Grace: Peter! Don’t do that! We’re here for Aiden and we need to know the truth! 
Peter: Oh, come on! He probably bought that out there so he can chop up some vegetables. 
Aiden: I wasn’t chopping up vegetables, you ignorant dipshit. I’m trying to tell you about what happened. 
Peter: Well, spill out the details. Tell us about the murder of that woman. What was the reason for you to come into her home and slaughter her? What did she do to you? What’s going on with your brain? 
Aiden: Okay, you want to know the truth? Well, here it is. It all start on the day before this incident happened. It was four days ago. 
Grace: That was last week when we try to contact you after you were upset that we send you a letter to pay rent. 
Aiden (Scoffs): I’m not paying your fucking rent. 
Peter: That attitude has got to stop, Aiden. Try to be responsible and learn some lessons on how to be a decent human being. 
Grace: Peter, don’t be harsh. Let him speak. 
(Aiden gives him a glare as he sits still in his seat. Grace puts her hand on Peter’s shoulder to get him to calm down. Peter looks at her and listens as his wife says. He sits down and calms himself before Aiden can talk.). 
Peter: Okay, I’ll give him a chance. 
Grace: Thank you, dear.
Aiden: Okay, I was hanging out with a couple of friends at a store. And we were messing around with some booze, drugs and wrestling. As we were just getting stuff, we went to a shop where they sell old school items. That was the day when unexpected things came out of nowhere and I didn’t know how to act. 
Scene 2: Old Childhood moments 
(The scene transitions from the visiting room to the clear blue sky with the sun. There’s a small antique store that says “Harris Place” on the sign. The day is Monday in the afternoon. This takes place before the murder. In the store, a woman with brunette hair was putting a lot of boxes away. She is the owner of the antique store and Aiden is the frequent visitor. He is sitting on a stool as he reads a comic book. He notices that the woman was in a quick rush to put the boxes away as if all of them were taking too much space in the store.). 
Aiden: You sure need help, Marianne?
Marianne:I just need to put some stuff away before anyone comes here and see this mess. 
(She puts a large box of small books on the shelf and kicks one box with her left foot.). 
Aiden: I’m sure there’s extra help around this place. 
Marianne: Trust me, there’s a little bit of employees who are lazy and never seem to care about putting boxes on shelves. (Sighs) Too much can be so hard. 
Aiden: I know that you’ve been working all day. 
Marianne: Well, I was working for three hours. All I ate was purple salad with croutons and cheese. But this place needs a lot of adjustments. 
Aiden: Anything I can do about this?
Marianne: Just leave that stuff over there, and I’ll take care of the other boxes by the corner.
