## Transcript

(*Outside the Strathcarron house in front of Charlie's Aygo*)

**Lee:** No, I am not budging until that car is going back to London.

**Charlie:** No!

**Gavin:** Come on, this is ridiculous! W- what is there back there for us? There's nothing! This is a complete waste of time.

**Charlie:** Maybe it's--

**Lee:** You know I wanna go and see Sophie! I've gotta see if she's all right!

**Charlie:** No, Lee, I understand that! Maybe it's a waste of your time, but I think we owe her that much, I think we need to go back!

(*Camera pans to Lauren. The group continues to argue in the background*)

**Lauren:** Another day, another ruck. We were so close to London before turning around and heading back this way.

**Gavin:** Hold on. Why would I...

**Charlie:** You broke into her house!

**Gavin:** So what? Go on, explain yourself then!

**Charlie:** Look... we just got a call from Hazel, Kate's mother- Genevieve's mother and she said she's got something to show us. Look, it must be important. Otherwise she wouldn't drag us all the way back there.

**Lee:** (*Interrupting*) Well, you think it's more important that we go back and see if Sophie's alright, don't you?

**Charlie:** Look, it's *ten* minutes away! We just broke into her house, drudged up her dead daughter *on camera*!

**Gavin:** What could she possibly have to say to us that might -- you know what, I'm done with, I've wasted too much of my life on this. Too much. You said it yourself, she's crazy, and you're going crazy.

**Charlie:** Okay, but -- she was my best friend! Even if it's my best friend's mother I think I owe her that much!

**Gavin:** I'm out. Charlie, I'm out, I'm gone, I'm going home. (*He climbs on to the driver's seat of Charlie's car.*)

**Charlie:** Okay then we'll catch a train.

**Gavin:** You'll catch a train.

**Charlie:** That's fine!

**Lauren:** Oh no...

**Gavin:** Well I'm going home, you can either have a cut with me or walk around in the dark.

**Charlie:** That's fine Gav. Whatever.

**Gavin:** Right, fine.

(*Cut to Charlie and Lauren approaching the Strathcarron household.*)

**Lauren:** What was Kate like?

**Charlie:** I really miss her, you know? Despite everything that happened between us, she was my best friend. She was one of my first friends here in London. I really wonder what she's gonna show us?

(*Charlie knocks on the door, but there is no answer.*)

**Charlie:** Hazel? Hazel?

(*Charlie opens the door and steps inside the house.*)

**Charlie:** Hazel? Hazel? It's Charlie. We're sorry it took us longer than we--

(*Charlie stops as she sees Hazel lying, unconscious, on the floor.*)

**Lauren:** Is she--?

(*Charlie feels for a pulse.*)

**Charlie:** Uh... She's cold.

**Lauren:** Do you think it was the Order?

(*There are loud knocks on the window. Charlie picks up a sword from the mantelpiece.*)

**Lauren:** Charlie, what are you doing?

**Charlie:** We're getting out of here!

**Lauren:** Charlie, be careful. Back door.

(*Lauren opens the back door, only for Terrence to jump out at them, laughing manically. He steals their video camera as the door slams shut. Lauren and Charlie are screaming and back away.*)

(*Terrence walks around the perimeter of the house.*)

**Terrence:** You know, it's funny somehow. That the only difference between humans and animals is the lack of a conscientious owner. (*He approaches a window where he sees Charlie and Lauren facing away from him.*) Shhh. (*He knocks on the window, immediately drawing Charlie and Lauren's attention.*) Hello! Ha! Uhh. Hey, don't worry!

**Charlie:** Fuck off!

**Terrence:** Don't worry, daddy will be back in a minute!

**Charlie:** Go away!

**Terrence:** We can play a little game. (*He turns the camera to himself.*) Well, it's been a very exciting day. I never expected to meet another member of the Strathcarron family, but let alone kill her. Ooh!

(*Lee swings from Terrence from behind, but Terrence dodges out of the way and kicks him to the ground. Gavin also lashes out at Terrence, but Terrence also has him on the ground in a matter of seconds.*)

**Terrence:** Haven't you two gentlemen learnt anything?

**Lee:** You bastard! How could you do that to Sophie, she'd never hurt anyone!

**Terrence:** Ah, how could you do that, how could you? Don't you two know me at all? You know, I should kill you right here. I've got a reputation to uphold. But I do like your funny little voice so I shall keep you around for entertainment. (*He kicks Lee again.*) Now don't go anywhere... that soon.

(*Terrence turns back to the window to see Charlie and Lauren escaping through the back door. He opens the front door of the house and chases after them.*)

**Terrence:** You cheeky bitches!

**Charlie:** Shit! Run! Run!

(*Lauren and Charlie stop, back to back, with Charlie holding the sword out defensively in front of her. Terrence circles them.*)

**Terrence:** Shh. Oh baby, what you trying to do to me eh?

**Lauren:** God.

**Terrence:** Our first time.

**Charlie:** Stay back! Stay back.

**Terrence:** Chaz! Chaz on toast... How do you wanna die? Alright. Let's make a deal. You hand over Lauren and I'll let you live happily ever after with the king of gigs.

**Lauren:** No...

**Charlie:** If you come any closer I'm gonna chop your fucking head off!

**Terrence:** Okay Chaz. That's no way to behave. Okay? Right. That's enough pissing about.

(*Terrence takes his tie and jacket off.*)

**Terrence:** It's showtime. The moment we've all been waiting for. Welcome... to the arena! Alright girls. Give me that fucking sword.

(*He turns around, but Lauren is alone.*)

**Terrence:** Now where's your friend?

(*Charlie jumps out at Terrence, impaling him with the sword. Terrence, moaning in pain, looks down at the sword and yells out when Charlie pulls it out.*)

**Terrence:** You son of a--

**Charlie:** I'm sorry.

**Terrence:** You fucking--

**Charlie:** I'm sorry.

**Terrence:** God!

**Charlie:** Sorry.

(*Terrence falls to the ground.*)

**Lauren:** You did it.

(*Charlie picks up the camera to show Terrence's wound.*)

**Charlie:** Oh my God...

**Terrence:** What've you done? What have you done?! Come here. Come here!
