THE TOWN - Rev. 5/20/10 (Buff Reshoots) 94.
125 EXT. MONUMENT SQUARE - AFTERNOON
125
Doug comes down the street in a hurry. He turns the
corner and stops in front of Claire’s DOOR. He is FROZEN
by something O.S.
A FUNERAL ARRANGEMENT rests against Claire’s door. There
is no name on it, just her address, 321 MONUMENT AVE. We
recognize this as a brand from the Florist’s.
Doug’s heart drops. He rings her buzzer. She doesn’t
answer. He POUNDS the door. No answer.
He takes out his gun, BREAKS THE GLASS, opens the lock
and goes in.
126 INT. CLAIRE’S APARTMENT - CONTINUOUS ACTION
126
The door to Claire’s apartment opens. Doug enters.
Holds the gun low in his right hand.
Claire?
DOUG
He moves through the apartment with stealth.
Through the front living area, to a back hall and
ultimately into the bedroom.
Doug stands in the bedroom, sensing something. He moves
to the bathroom, sees the door slightly AJAR and a SHADOW
on the FLOOR. He PUSHES IT OPEN slowly.
We REVEAL: CLAIRE, SITTING ON THE FLOOR, she’s been
crying.
Doug quickly sticks the gun away and moves toward her.
She PULLS away.
Get out.
Claire...
CLAIRE
DOUG
CLAIRE
I know who you are, Doug.
DOUG
Hold on a second.
She indicates her cell phone.
