DEADLY RELATIONS

EXT. COUNTRY ROAD- AFTERNOON

CAMERA fades into blue sky as it breezes softly through the 
clouds on a beautiful spring day.  It slowly descends on green 
grass, trees, and other pretty scenery.  It gently makes it's 
way down a long quiet street (adjacent to a small three foot 
high brick wall, enclosing a small hill, on the left and to the 
right lays an open field) where it comes upon two young adults 
making out.

The male is XAVIER, a tall twenty-two year old college senior 
with reddish-brown hair and blue eyes.  He is wearing blue 
jeans, a casual shirt, and black sneakers.  The girl is CASEY, 
a medium height eighteen-year-old high school senior with long 
waist-length dark dirty blonde hair and green eyes.  She is 
wearing a more stylish shirt and blouse.

Further up the road, about another thirty feet, a new block 
begins and houses in an upper middle class residential area are 
visible.  On the corner on the left side of the street a huge 
tree with massive leaves obstructs the view.

After about twenty seconds of passionate kissing, the girl 
begins to push away.  During the opening sequence, a ROMANTIC 
MODERN SONG relevant to the activity taking place plays and 
comes to a SCREECHING HALT, like a record being scratched off, 
when the girl pushes away.

			CASEY
		(matter of factly)
	I don't think we should see each 
	other anymore.

There is a short pause.

			CASEY (CONT'D)
		(snobbishly adds)
	And it's not because of what my 
	friends said.

She begins to walk down the street away from the residential 
area.  Xavier grabs her arm.

			XAVIER
		(irritated)
	What the hell is that supposed to 
	mean?  Who said what?

Casey wiggles out of his grip.

			CASEY
		(snotty)
	Nothing, never mind.  Forget it.  
	It's just over.  Now leave me alone.

She continues walking while Xavier just stands there, 
speechless.  Her back is to him as she walks, and she makes 
some good distance before he can manage to utter a word.

			XAVIER
	WELL FINE!  YOU'RE NOT WORTH IT ANY-
	WAY!!!

Xavier turns slightly to the right facing the nearby wall and 
begins walking towards it.  He kicks a stone to the curb as he 
continues walking.

			XAVIER
		(aloud, to himself, 
		hurt)
	Been with that bitch for three 
	months!... Graduation in a few weeks... 
	Now who'll be my date to the big party?

As he has this conversation with himself, Xavier continues to 
cross the street and sidewalk, hops over the wall, and begins 
to mount the hill.  He then disappears behind it.

Casey is now considerably further down the road, becoming 
smaller and smaller as she continues walking.  Behind her in 
the background, an old station wagon turns the corner 
obstructed by the tree.

			CASEY
	I don't know why my friends didn't 
	like him... I suppose they're right... 
	I'm out of his league.  He'd lower 
	my social standing... I need a rich 
	man.

Casey makes a weak, halfhearted smile at the thought.  She 
pulls out a walkman, puts it on, and begins to HUM along with 
the MUSIC.

The station wagon comes barreling down the street at about 
fifty-five miles per hour.  The sun glares in the windshield 
(as not to reveal the identity of the driver).

Casey makes a strange, confused face as she first becomes aware 
of the SOUND behind her.  She stops and turns around just as 
the station wagon is five feet away, not giving her time to 
scream.  She is shown getting hit, her legs by the bumper which 
propels her on to the hood...

							CUT TO:

DRIVER'S POV- WINDSHEILD- CONTINUOUS

Casey's face hits the windshield violently, and blood splatters 
across it.  The windshield wipers are turned on.  They smear 
the blood worse than it was already.  The body is still visible 
on the hood of the car.

							CUT TO:

EXT. COUNTRY ROAD- CONTINUOUS

The station wagon continues driving forward.  Then it suddenly 
jams on the breaks and Casey's body flies a few feet forward 
landing in front of the station wagon.

Casey's body is sprawled out on the pavement.  Her lifeless 
face lies on its side with its eyes still wide open.  Her body 
is mangled.

The driver's side door of the station wagon opens.  A foot, 
followed by the bottom of a leg, emerges, wearing a black 
sneaker and blue jeans.  The DRIVER'S legs approach the body.  
A pair of brown-gloved hands reach down and each grab one of 
Casey's feet.

Casey's body is dragged to the rear of the vehicle.  Casey's 
legs are dropped by the Driver's hands, which now open the 
trunk.  Casey's body is then lifted and thrown inside the 
station wagon.  The trunk is then LOUDLY SLAMMED shut.
