Initial credits fade in and out on black screen.

(Locked Productions
Presents etc.). Music begins to play upon the final credits appearing:
Lets Dance - David Bowie. At the first kick of the song, snap into
picture.

INTERIOR: An underground carpark/basement

Camera pans in through a table, which has a radio playing the song,
towards the centre of the room. We see a bloodied individual being
repeatedly socked across the jaw by a man in a dark suit.

This individual, the victim, is ALESSANDRO, although he is never referred


to by name in this sequence. The suited man, is ENZO, a renowned crime
lord who has been torturing kidnapped government agents for the fun of
it, having already retained the information he needed from the first 2 of
the 9 agents who he had gotten ahold of. The information he was after is
in relation to a top secret project, codename: BLACKFIRE.

ENZO repeatedly punches ALESSANDRO, before deciding its time to have a


break.

ENZO
Hoowee! This is hard work. I need a drink, you want one? [He walks
towards the table] No? No worries, Ill have yours.

ENZO pours two glasses of beer. ALESSANDRO begins to recollect himself,


and begins struggling, attempting to free himself from his bonds and get
off the chair. ENZO drinks from the first glass, and then turns to see
ALESSANDRO struggling in the background.

ENZO
Whoop! Hold on there, buddy, lets sort you out.

ENZO puts his glass back down on the table, and picks up a small knife as
he heads towards ALESSANDRO, who has now stopped struggling and focusing
on the knife now in his torturers hand.

ENZO cuts the bonds, freeing ALESSANDRO, who slumps forward, relieved
that his limbs are now freed. ENZO then makes his way around ALESSANDRO,
and kicks him over and off the chair onto the ground. Upon impact, ENZO
follows him down and in one swift movement stabs ALESSANDRO in the back
of the neck.

ALESSANDRO screams in excruciating pain as the knife is driven into his


neck. The knife stays where it has entered. ENZO stands up.

ENZO
You should know that hunching over like thats gonna give you some sharp
pains in your neck after a while. (sighs, and lifts the chair back onto
its legs) Lets get you upright, huh? 3-2-1
He lifts ALESSANDRO back up onto the chair. He then makes his way behind
him, and quickly pulls the knife out of ALESSANDROs neck, ALESSANDRO
screams again.

ENZO
There we are, all better. Thatll be, everything you know about
BLACKFIRE, and, hmm, everything else you know too. (looks at the knife
now covered in blood) Man, this one was my favourite. Cant see that
washing off too easily.

He wipes most of the blood off the knife on ALESSADNROs shoulder, and
then makes his way back to the table.

ALESSANDRO
(Dazed and weakened) This This is fucking ridiculous I Ill tell you
everything

ENZO, still holding the knife, picks up one of the glasses and sips from
it, puts it down and turns to reply.

ENZO
Oh, do enlighten me. Tell me something I dont know, Mr Stivali. Cause I
DO know everything.

He turns back to the table to finish his drink.

ALESSANDRO
Wh- What do you mean? I I haven't said shit this whole time..?

ENZO turns around, pointing the knife at ALESSANDRO

ENZO
You havent. But your agent buddies that went missing two months ago,
they have, Ha, your whole operations already gone bust, and you don't
even know it yet.

ALESSANDRO
Bullshit. I I don't know who you've already been through, but whoever it
was, theres no way they would've told you anything.

ENZO
Oh, believe me, they all talked. There was one guy in particular who was
willing to get into the whole nitty gritty of what was going on. Who
was that now Oh, of course! Your wingman! And the dear lad told me
things that now only I know. Me, and me alone. I know EVERYTHING. I feel
kind of like the kid whos gone through all of his presents before
Christmas morning, and is so, underwhelmed and disappointed by what hes
found. You know?

ALESSANDRO
(In complete disbelief) No I dont believe you Not for a (coughs) Not
for a second Im not telling you shit Kill me Do it, everythings
gonna go down with me.

Having returned to the table, ENZO turns around with a gun in hand.
ENZO
Thats the idea.

He shoots and kills ALESSANDRO. He lowers his guard and returns to the
table. Slamming the gun onto the table, he picks up a glass and drinks
again. With the bloodied knife, he crosses off a photograph on a
collage of ID photos, who are all the agents hes kidnapped and killed.
He then stabs the knife into the table.

Off camera, ENZO calls an unknown individual.

ENZO
Bring in the next two, and tell control to move onto phase 3.

CUE: title card. Black screen. End.
