SCENE 1
1. EXT. HOUSE. NIGHT
1. EXT. HOUSE. NIGHT
JUMP CUT:
In the heart of a suburban neighborhood, a house glows with light from a teen party. The heavy bass sound echoes through the air, partially muffled by the walls of the house.
MARTHA, .. Teenage girl with ginger hair and nose ring. Appears constantly distracted.
NOAH, .. Tall male with light coloured hair. Seems constantly concerned with MARTHA.
ANONYMOUS, .. Slightly muscular figure, dressed all in black, lingers outside of house. The figure breathes heavily.
MOLLY, .. Wearing a short dress, finished with fishnet tights and holding a wand; her intent to be a fairy princess. Her bright blonde hair stands out from the dark backdrop of the house at night.
CRAIG, .. Dark haired male
OUTSIDE OF HOUSE
MOLLY
(Laughs loudly in-between talking and stumbles in
heels to the open front door)
God, I hope no one else is wearing the same as me. What
if they think that I look shit?
CRAIG
(Holds MOLLY up by her waist and laughing at
her)
I don't think anyone would think that Molly. Honestly, you look fine. They won't care about what you're wearing anyway. They'll be too busy looking at me.
(Holds bottle of beer in the air, wink, swigs from it
and then smirks)
MOLLY
(Rolls eyes)
Obnoxious prick.
(Both CRAIG and MOLLY stumble
towards front door and through it.)
INTERIOR: DOORWAY
MARTHA
(Standing opposite to
the door)
Hey. Craig (Nods to him) Molly, you look so good! Everyone else is just
through there.
(Points towards groups of people in the distance
behind her)
MOLLY
(To MARTHA) Cheers.
(Turns to CRAIG)
Told you.
(Back to MARTHA)
Is your nan in?
MARTHA
No, she's staying with her friend in Oxford.
No, she's staying with her friend in Oxford.
MOLLY
Ah okay. We'll go get a drink. Do you want anything?
MARTHA
No it's okay. I'll come get one in a minute.
(Interrupted by NOAH. MOLLY and CRAIG walk past
MARTHA towards groups of people in distance)
NOAH
(Grabs MARTHAS hand and spins her around)
Someone doesn't look very happy... or drunk!
(Goes to hug MARTHA but she gently pushes him away)
Martha! Come get a drink and dance with me.
(Goes to hug MARTHA but she gently pushes him away)
Martha! Come get a drink and dance with me.
MARTHA
No. I'm not really feeling it to be honest.
NOAH
Marf mate, chill out
and enjoy your night. Forget about all that
stuff.
MARTHA
(Unclear murmurs)
I
know.
NOAH
Well i'm getting a drink and then i'm going to see if Molly wants a dance. (Laughs)
MARTHA
Go on then, get me a drink. (Smiles at NOAH)
NOAH
Well i'm getting a drink and then i'm going to see if Molly wants a dance. (Laughs)
MARTHA
Go on then, get me a drink. (Smiles at NOAH)
(NOAH turns to get a drink and
puts packet of cigarettes on the side. MARTHA watches him and smiles then
turns to shut the door.)
MARTHA
MARTHA
(Sees ANONYMOUS and slams the
door. She backs away and falls to the stairs)
BEN
(Walks back towards MARTHA with a
drink in hand)
Here's your drink. You okay?
(MARTHA doesn't answer so he kneels beside her, putting his hand on her back)
Marf, what's up? What's going on?
MARTHA
(Stutters)
Did you just see that?
NOAH
See what?
MARTHA
(Shakes head gently)
Doesn't matter.
NOAH
I'm going out for a fag. Will you be okay?
MARTHA
Yeah. Yeah. I just need to chill out.
NOAH
(Smiles)
Come get me if you need me okay?
MARTHA
(Shakes head gently)
Doesn't matter.
NOAH
I'm going out for a fag. Will you be okay?
MARTHA
Yeah. Yeah. I just need to chill out.
NOAH
(Smiles)
Come get me if you need me okay?
(Picks up packet of cigarettes)
