ARJUN
What do you mean your keeping the
baby? What will you say when someone
asks who's the father?
WOMAN
Don't worry about that. No will find
out about you. I'll take care about
that.
ARJUN
What? Wait, how did this happen?
WOMAN
Condoms fail. There's a two percentage
chance. I looked up in the internet.
ARJUN
Why do you sound so happy about this?
WOMAN
You know how expensive it is to
raise a child, right?
WOMAN
Uh, I actually have some photos of
both of us.
ARJUN
What? When did we take photos?
WOMAN
You were fucking drunk.
Arjun gets a notification on his phone. He checks -- it's a
whatsapp message containing a photo of a woman and Arjun
together on a bed, half naked. Arjun looks passed out in the
pic, but a smile on his face.
WOMAN
You know how expensive it is to
raise a child, right?
ARJUN
You're blackmailing me.
WOMAN
I'm negotiating with you. You pay
me what I ask for or I’ll tell your
fiance that you fucked me!
At the end of the call, she says "tonight I'll come to your
house. Be ready with the money"

Panics. He can't find the keys. He notices the key inside the
car. Panics more. Screams.. Abruptly cut to: him watching a
YouTube video about how to open car if key is inside. The
body by the side of the road, where people on road can’t see
it. A few vehicles pass him.
CUT TO: He breaks the front window open using the L spanner.
Opens the trunk and tries to put the body in. The trunk
doesn't closes cuz of two bodies.. (like blow the man down).
He struggles and finnaly manmages to get the bodies in. The
water bottle is empty. He pees on the blood on the ground and
rubs it off using his leg.
Slams car's top, kicks car door in frustration. Opens the
door and gets in.
He drives and stops by a forest and starts digging with
shovel. Torchlight in his mouth. Montage. He drags the
biker’s body out of the trunk. he feels something. Notices
that the biker is still breathing, he stares at the biker. A
beat. Breathing stops. On a SUDDEN, the biker gets up,
holding the car as support. They both fight like (Happy
Gilmore https://youtu.be/6CajdyoaSM0 3:00). At the end of the
fight, Arjun suffocates him to death. (like Simple plan
