20. More pressure. Beth loses the will to fight, but her face is pure anger. Handing the WORN PISTOL over to Beth, the Teenage Girl climbs deftly down out of the ceiling cavity. INT. FAMILY APARTMENT - HALLWAY The Teenage Girl stands in SMOKE. TEENAGE GIRL I’m coming out. Don’t shoot. RED DOTS instantly appear on the girl’s chest. She shows her hands, palms out. GAS-MASKED POLICE OFFICER Hands behind your head! Now! The Teenage Girl clasps her hands behind her head, gets down on her knees. Another officer steps forward, looks down at the Man, lifts off his GAS MASK. It’s one of the officers that was in earlier. He throws down a SHEET of paper, with a Ministry of Justice LETTERHEAD; HOLOGRAPHIC IMAGE of a MYTHICAL BIRD. As the atmosphere clears, two officers come through from the bedrooms, both the teenagers restrained. A third officer, slung CARBINE, holds an EVIDENCE BAG containing a pound of MARIJUANA. In the other hand he displays a SAWN OFF SHOTGUN. A RIFLE BUTT goes through the TELEVISION SCREEN. The last officer to leave looks back at the Man, and the completely distressed crying Woman. POLICE OFFICER They chose to work for the rebels. Be thankful we’re not taking you in too. (beat) Sir. I’d be thankful for your wife’s well regarded musical talent. Being the Supreme Minister is such a fan and all.

Beth stands there, looking towards her solemnly. BETH I’ll leave. The Woman SIGNS intensely. Shakes her head with a furrowed brow. The Man appears behind his wife. BETH I said, I’ll go. It’s my choice. EXT. CUBA STREET - APARTMENT BLOCK A POLICE VAN departs. A PATROL CAR, LIGHTS ON but silent, remains parked up on the street. LIGHT AMBIENCE flickers intermittently across the street. An officer forces a few curious folks to move on. INT. FAMILY APARTMENT (AN HOUR LATER) The vacant hole where the front door was has been covered over with a PLASTIC SHEET and DUCT TAPE. Beth picks up unbroken things, carries them through to the kitchen. The Woman sweeps up rubbish. Beth holds open a RUBBISH BAG for her while she fills it with junk and broken glass from the coffee table. The Man comes out with two CUPS of tea. MAN Sorry, no sugar. The Woman SIGNS: You should stay. Please stay. Beth looks to the Man. MAN
