INT.

BEDROOM

CAMERA BIRDS EYE VIEW OF BED

MORGAN climbs into bed visibly exhausted and lays for a


moment before closing her eyes.

CUT TO DESK, WINDOW AND NIGHT STAND.

MORGAN shuffles around in bed

CUT TO MORGAN CLOSE UP

Morgan almost asleep is interrupted by a sound within the


night that wakes her in disturbance. Sitting up she
investigates the source of the noise from her bed.

CUT TO WIDE SHOT OF ROOM

MORGAN suspicious sighs for a moment before laying back down


but before she can ROBIN appears.

ROBIN
Well that was an odd noise I wonder
who that was... Someone in the house
possibly?

MORGAN
Ah...! Robin! What do you mean
someone? there is no one here besides
us!

ROBIN
But what if someone is here? (gasp)
did someone break in?! Who do you
think it is?

MORGAN
Wha- No! No one is here, stop putting
that crap into my head it was just a
noise and nothing else!

MORGAN lays back down into bed annoyed by ROBINS suggestions.

ROBIN
Just a noise? Oh come on! Like what?
the pipes that clang a bit or the
creaky floorboards and walls of this
place? that's boring! it's obvious
there is someone here~

As ROBIN proclaims this visuals and sound sfx start to play


out around MORGAN, MORGAN throws around in frustration and
falls out of bed.

INT. SUBCONSCIOUS

MORGAN
Ugh... (sigh) Fine! Who the hell is
here and what do they want?

ROBIN
What do they want? huh... Oh! Someone
terrible! It's obvious they broke in
to murder us! (chuckles)

MORGAN
What? That's not funny, That's
serious! and besides there is no one
here- Huh...?

Hands start to form around MORGAN and grab at her, she grows
worried but soon annoyed

MORGAN
Robin! stop messing with me this isn't
funny!

CLOSE UP OF ROBIN TURNING

ROBIN
Oh no you're right! it's very serious,
see all of these unwanted eyes
watching you... you cant see them but
they can see you. all the time. How
does it feel huh? Any moment someone
could BURST in and HURT YOU! they're
waiting.

VOICES
we can see you, you're scared, you're
overthinking, it's just a thought.

Camera pans 360 around MORGAN as more eyes open up to look at


her, Camera pauses as a massive eye flashes open at MORGAN,
she turns to face it with a moment of hesitation before
snapping.

MORGAN
Ugh... stop it ROBIN! I just want to
sleep -ack! I said STOP!

CUT TO MORGAN GRABBING A PILLOW AND SWINGING IT AT THE EYE.

CUT TO BLACK

INT. BEDROOM

MORGAN lays for a moment in bed, turning over she looks at


the time which reveals to be 3 am. She sits up at the edge of
her bed and then reaches for the glass of water and sleeping
tablets at her night stand. Before she can take the tablets
she is interrupted by her door creaking open. Robins voice
interjects.

ROBIN
You know those won't do anything
right? and even if you do take them it
just proves how weak you are!

Visuals lurk from behind the door and crawl slowly towards
MORGAN. MORGAN looks at the tablets for a moment before
looking up to the door.

MORGAN
Robin... just drop it, It's way past
midnight...

The door slowly opens wider revealing a shadowy figure and


MORGAN shows visual discomfort.

ROBIN
Oh but you're not listening! Can you
hear that? Someone is right here in
your room! See--

MORGAN switches the light on revealing the figure to just be


ROBIN.

MORGAN
Oh for god's sake Robin! Could you
just stop fucking around?!

ROBIN
Uh- Language! and no, I am very
serious about this!

ROBIN marches in proud.

MORGAN
All I ask for is for one night without
your annoying comments...

MORGAN sits with her face in her hands and goes to take her
tablets before ROBIN interrupts

ROBIN
Annoying comments?! They're to help
you! Look at you, you're weak! Clearly
taking those Sleeping tablets wont do
you any good!

MORGAN stands up to ROBIN in anger.

MORGAN
WEAK?! These sleeping tablets are the
only thing that will stop you from
spouting this BULLSHIT!

ROBIN pushes MORGAN to the ground and the tablets fall out of
MORGAN's hands. silence falls and the room distorts around
ROBIN.

ROBIN
You just don't get it do you Morgan? I
AM SIMPLY PROTECTING YOU, YOU'RE
WORTHLESS WITHOUT ME.

Visuals swarm around ROBIN distorting and pulsating before


attacking MORGAN.

INT. SUBCONSCIOUS

Various visuals take over the screen cutting between each


other and attacking MORGAN, cuts of abstract visuals and
visuals interacting with MORGAN.

ROBIN (VOICES)
Nobody cares about you, You're mess.
You keep falling behind. everyone is
looking at you. waste of space.

MORGAN
(grunts)... S-stop it... (huffs)... I
SAID STOP

Visuals explode and vanish as morgan collapses. Robin


approaches, amused.

ROBIN
Why are you even trying to fight it?
Don't you see everything you do, you
always get hurt?

ROBIN crouches over MORGANS body.

ROBIN
You lose friends, you lose
opportunities to better yourself and
you wanna know why?

CUT TO MORGAN trying to get up and ROBIN stomping on her back


causing her to fall back down.

ROBIN
You keep fucking up. Every time you
take a step forward in bettering
yourself I'm going to keep reminding
you there is no point (stomp), no one
cares (stomp). They all hate you
(stomp). You're better off here,
inside away from everything that can
hurt hurt you. (stomp)

There is a moment of silence. Robin lifts her foot off of


Morgans back ad turns away.

MORGAN
You're right, why even try? but I'm
not just going to give up that easily.

ROBIN turns to attack MORGAN but MORGAN restrains her arms.

MORGAN
I'd rather fail trying than not try at
all. I get it, shit hits the fan and
you think you cant come back from it,
It seems to cliche to admit this but --
it's okay. It's fine.

MORGAN overtakes ROBIN as ROBIN falls to her knees in shock.


Tears hit ROBINS cheeks as MORGAN tries to hold back tears.

MORGAN
Yes, I admit that I've lost some
important people in my life and missed
out on potentially great
opportunities, but that doesn't mean
there's no second try, it doesn't mean
there's no tomorrow and that
definitively doesn't mean I should
give up!

MORGAN takes a breath and let's go of ROBIN. MORGAN turns


away from ROBIN.

MORGAN
But sitting here and thinking it will
be worse and blaming myself will only
make that more true...

MORGAN walks up to the bedside table and picks up a glass and


takes out the tablets form her pocket.

MORGAN
I hope you can realise that soon, and
when you do... maybe I can get a good
night's sleep.

CUT TO ROBIN sitting and looking down as the visuals around


her slowly wither. CUT TO Morgan taking the sleeping pills.
CUT TO BLACK.
