Script Example

“Criminal Minds ‘Breathless’ “

*this is an example to explain how to make a storytelling script*
Detective Sevilla brings Horatio to a man found dead, left over from a party. Horatio is
interviewing the party's women, entertained by male lap dancers, like the dead man. Calleigh,
processing, finds mosquitoes on the body and an empty condom wrapper. There are tie marks
around the wrists of the dead man as his body is removed the party house. (First People )
Detective Martin Puig is working with Megan and Delko at a marina where a man comes out of
the Atlantic, only to drop dead on the Tupper's yacht. The body is lying astern, examiner Brian
Fan says single stab wound to the gut, based upon his pallor, he apparently bled out. Megan
asks where's the rest of the blood, as she wipes the deck, testing with positive results, but there
isn't much of a sign of the victim's blood. (Second People)

Noel. An educated hypothesis is mosquitoes drink blood, so Horatio says let's have Alexx go
over the body again, looking for something lethal. (Fourth People)
Ladies at the party are at HQ to offer a DNA swab, Noel had sex with one of them just before he
died. One of the ladies, Claire Heitmann, steps forward as the one having sex with Noel. She
says he was fine afterward, she tells Horatio she did not use a condom. (Fifth People)
The mosquitoes are telling nothing while Alexx shows Horatio a injection mark on Noel's body.
There was nothing in his medical records indicating any injections taken to date, for any reason,
also commenting this is one of the hardest crimes to solve. Horatio says poison. (Sixth People)
