INT. ROOM.

NIGHT
two people wake up in a room that they do not recognise. They look around
slowly and can hear beeping noises. They both look confused and their eyes
lock as they recognise each other.
screen fades to black

INT. INSIDE HOUSE. MORNING


A shot of a normal street in the morning time as text appears on the bottom of
the screen reading '24 hours earlier'. We then go inside the house to show
VIOLET asleep in bed when her alarm clock goes off at 8am. She gets out of
bed, gets dressed for work, makes coffee, and leaves her house.

INT. OFFICE MORNING


VIOLET arrives at work and see's one of her co-workers ELIJAH quickly shut his
laptop screen. She walks on past without saying anything. She gets into her
office room and the phone rings, so she picks up.
VIOLET
Goodmorning, Kings Cross financial services how may I help you?
Oh... Janice. Yes... I am sorry I was late today. I-I know, it will not happen again.
I overslept; I have had trouble sleeping. Okay, I will call my first client now. Bye
Janice.
(Violet puts the phone down and calls her first client)
VIOLET
Goodmorning, Kings Cross financial services. I am calling today to...
(Talking continues the audio starts to go all inaudible and fades out)
INT. OFFICE. MORNING
ELIJAH is in his office alone and is on the on the phone to a client.
ELIJAH
Yes, that sounds like a good idea. We will arrange a meeting at some point
over the next few weeks to help you with your savings. Yes, we have your
information secured and protected do not worry Mrs Jackson. Enjoy the rest of
your day and I will get back to you shortly. B-Bye.
ELIJAH sips his coffee and starts typing on his computer. He then starts going
through paperwork as the scene fades to black

EXT. TOWN. AFTERNOON


VIOLET walking down the street on her lunch break. In the corner of the screen
there is a person in black with their hood up with their back to the camera
watching her. VIOLET is unaware of this person, and they follow her. The figure
takes a picture of her.

EXT. TOWN. EVENING


ELIJAH walks out of the office building and starts walking down the street as
you see the same black figure watching him. He walks to his house, and you
can see the figure in every shot. The figure takes a picture of him outside his
house.

INT. DARK ROOM. NIGHT


Both ELIJAH and VIOLET are staring at each other for a moment in this dark,
unfamiliar room. They both slowly stand up.
(Both characters speaking in a panic)
VIOLET
Elijah?
ELIJAH
Violet?
VIOLET
Where the hell are we? We need to get out
(ELIJAH starts bashing on the door and screaming)
ELIJAH
Help! Can anyone hear me? I need help. Get me out of here

VIOLET is sitting in the corner of the room hugging her knees in fear while
ELIJAH is continuously bashing on the door. As violet looks around, she sees
pictures on the side so slowly walks over to look at them.

VIOLET
(Getting angry)
Elijah. What the hell are these?

There are 4 pictures. One picture of ELIJAH outside his house, One of VIOLET
on her lunch break and 2 of different SD cards.
VIOLET
(Pointing to the SD card pictures and getting angrier)
Elijah. Do you care to explain?
ELIJAH
*shouts* okay!
(ELIJAH sits down)
I was hacking our company. I was selling off our client's information for money.
It doesn’t make sense, only one of these are mine.
(ELIJAH slowly looks up at VIOLET)

INT. MI5 OFFICE. NIGHT


The 2 black figured MI5 agents are watching VIOLET and ELIJAH through a
camera on a tv screen.
AGENT 1
They woke up
AGENT 2
How are they doing?
AGENT 1
As expected,
AGENT 2
So, they are scared.
AGENT 1
They must be stupid thinking that anyone can hear them from in there.
(Agents both looking intensely at the screen)
AGENT 2
Look! They found the pictures. Let's see if they are smart enough to figure it
out.
INT. ROOM. NIGHT
VIOLET and ELIJAH are looking at the photos and the camera zooms into the
picture of ELIJAH in his hand and plays a flashback clip of that moment. The
same happens for VIOLET.
ELIJAH
This picture of me was from yesterday, this is really starting to creep me out.
VIOLET
Me too. Hey, what were you doing on your laptop when I saw you yesterday at
work Elijah?
ELIJAH
Take a wild guess violet...
BEAT
VIOLET
Really Elijah? At work? And you are shocked you got caught? How careless of
you.
ELIJAH
Well, you clearly aren’t careful either Violet, or I would be here alone.
BEAT
Please explain to me Violet, how did you do this?
BEAT
VIOLET
I am just fed up with my office job that cannot even pay my rent, every night I
would stay up hacking the system and selling our clients bank details.
Anyway, why does this even matter, shouldn’t we focus on getting out of here?
Elijah walks over to the door and looks at it.

ELIJAH
This door is confusing me. It’s not usually this difficult to kick door or pick the
lock.
VIOLET
Whoever has us must be very smart. They have probably done this before.

ELIJAH and VIOLET keep walking around the room and looking at everything.

INT. MI5 OFFICE. NIGHT


Both agents are still inside the office and watching the cameras.
AGENT 1
Maybe they won’t figure it out
AGENT 2
Come on. Of course they will, I selected them because they’re smart.
AGENT 1
If they don’t figure out that we took them to help us, then they are definitely
not the kind of people we want.
AGENT 2
They have until tonight to figure it out themselves, we will give them a bit of
help but if they don’t figure it out. We will have to discard them.
AGENT 1
I agree with you. There is no point having these people to do our job if they
can’t even figure out why they’re here.
INT. ROOM. NIGHT
VIOLET and ELIJAH are sitting on the floor, staring at the pictures. A screen
starts playing with a video of one of the agents.
AGENT 1
Violet, Elijah. You have until the end of the night to figure out why you’re here.
If you don’t you are clearly not the people we are after.
BEAT
We will have to get rid of you. You will have absolutely no memory of this and
going back to your old life is not an option anymore. We have ways of wiping
your memory and altering your way of thinking. Good luck.

ELIJAH and VIOLET slowly look at each other in fear.

VIOLET
Elijah, we are going to figure this out, the other alternative is not an option.
ELIJAH
I have a feeling I know what this is about...

Screen fades to black and credits start.
