INT. SCHOOL BUILDING
A group of school children crowding around a subject that is
not visible with the camera angle. A kid, SILAS, pushes their
way to the front of the crowd to see what the excitement is
about. The camera angle changes to show a newspaper. The
title reads "CARRABASSETT TEENAGER MISSING, PRESUMED DEAD".
Fade to black.
MILO
WHY ARE YOU OUT HERE?!
PENNY laughs.
PENNY
Hehe, Milo screamed over some kid!
Do it again, Milo!
MILO glares at her.
MYSTERIOUS BOY
Oh, sorry, I should've introduced
myself first, probably. I'm Lucas.
SILAS steps forwards.
SILAS
That doesn't explain why you're
prowling in the woods after dark,
weirdo.
LUCAS
I-
SILAS
Literally creeping up on poor,
unsuspecting children in the dark.
What's wrong with you?!
LUCAS
Sorry! I just- what did you say?
SILAS
I said you're a creep who doesn't
know how to make himself known in
the woods. At night, too!
LUCAS
Relax! I'm sorry, I meant earlier.
Did you say a dead kid?
PENNY scoffs, elbowing MILO.
PENNY
This guy, crawling out of the
shadows and asking about a dead
kid.
LUCAS
Wow, you guys are mean. Listen, I
think I know where this... dead kid
you're trying to find is.

PENNY
That's kinda creepy... I love it.
Lead the way!
MILO
WHAT?! This is a one-way ticket to
getting kidnapped! Stranger danger,
guys!!
SILAS and PENNY follow LUCAS. MILO turns to face them.
MILO (CONT'D)
Guys-- GUYS! This is NOT a good
idea! Come back!!
SILAS
Either follow us or stay there,
Milo! Only I know the way back.
MILO sputters, before running after them.
FADE TO BLACK.
PENNY
Ooh, tell them I say hi.
FADE TO BLACK.
