    INT. HOUSE – DAY
    Black screen – we hear an alarm clock. Open on shot of
    egg being cracked, whisked and put in the microwave. All
    with quick cuts. Shots of JOE brushing teeth and getting
    ready, doing pushups. Post comes through the door. Joe
    picks it up. Over the shoulder shot of him flicking
    through it. Just bills until he comes to a hand scrawled
    note that says ‘3 days’. Shot of him looking confused. He
    goes to the front door and opens it, looking around, brow
    furrowed. He steps back inside and as he closes it, we
    cut to black. On the black screen appears a clock ticking
    down/Day 2 or something.

    INT. HOUSE - DAY

    We see a similar montage the next day. We see him in bed


    waking up, going around the house making his breakfast
    and brushing his teeth. He then comes to the door and
    there is more post on the door mat. He picks it up and
    flicks through. There is another note – ‘2 days’. He
    furrows his brow. He then takes the note to the kitchen
    and throws it in the bin. We see the door opening and he
    leaves, getting in his car and driving off.

    INT. CAR – DAY

    There is a shot of him inside the car driving and


    something catches his eye. There is a shot outside the
    car as he drives past an old lady holding up two fingers.
    The camera holds on her as it drives past. Cut back to
    inside the car with Joe looking slightly worried.

    INT. LOUNGE – NIGHT

    Later that day Joe is sat in his lounge and turns on the
    TV. When he does ‘2 days’ appears on his screen. He jolts
    back staring at it. He hurriedly fumbles with the remote
    and changes the channel. He sits back, brow furrowed and
    looking concerned.

    INT. HOUSE - DAY

    The next day we see another montage. Joe looks more on


    edge now, glancing out of the window while making his
    breakfast and behind him while brushing his teeth. Post
    lands on the doormat. He ignores it and goes straight to
    the door. He opens it and looks outside. There is no one
    there. He closes the door and tentatively picks up the

    1
    post. He goes through it more slowly this time, dreading
    what he might see. The music begins to ramp up at this
    point. He finally reaches a note that says, ‘1 day’. The
    music reaches a climax and a beat hits as he uncovers the
    note. He drops the rest of the post and runs to the back
    door, grabbing a box of matches on the way (Shot from
    above on stairs – following him). He bursts out of the
    back door, lights a match, and burns the note, throwing
    it to the ground. Shot from the ground with the fire in
    the foreground and Joe in the background, looking scared.
    The music rises even further as he stares at the flames,
    making us expect something to happen. It is then cut off
    by a loud alarm clock sound and a shot of Joe in bed.

    INT. BEDROOM – DAY

    Joe lays sprawled, as if dead on his bed. The alarm clock


    sounds loudly as this shot starts, cutting off the one
    before with the flames. Joe jolts awake and turns it off.
    He turns over on his back and looks around. There is
    nothing out of the ordinary. He slowly gets out of bed
    and opens his door, looking around nervously.

    INT. KITCHEN - DAY

    We then see him in the kitchen about to crack an egg when


    there is a ring at the door. His head shoots up,
    immediately alert and on edge. He carefully puts the egg
    down and edges towards the front door.

    JOE
    (Nervous/apprehensive)

    Hello?

    There is no response. The music rises as he reaches his


    hand towards the front door handle. As he opens it, we
    cut away to a shot facing the floor. On the floor we can
    see a shadow of Joe and something else. We hear a muffled
    scuffle and see the shadows struggling as a note falls to
    the ground below the camera. It says ‘0’. We hold on
    this, slowly zooming on it. A drop of blood falls on it.
    Cut to black.
