INT. SOLITARY CONFINEMENT - WELL - POOL
Beth shivers as she dozes against the WELL wall. She falls
forward, is suddenly awake. She screams as she plunges
into the Well below.
Flailing arms, SPLASHING as Beth tries to keep her head
above the stagnant water. Pure panic, gasping for air.
Taking several deep breaths, Beth calms herself. Swims
over to the wall. Fingers dig into the mortar between the
bricks.
An impossible task to climb.
Beth tries all the same. Slips. Tries again and slips. She
is totally spent. She floats, then slips under the water.
Remaining submerged for several beats, Beth returns to the
surface, grits her teeth to fight on.
RATS SCREECH.
Beth spots a RAT swimming in the water. She strikes out.
Her legs begin to thrash as she is attacked by the
rodents.
EXT. INTERNAL SECURITY HEADQUARTERS
The Intelligence Agent leaves the H.Q. Walks down to a CAR
PARK. He gets into his car.
LIGHTS BLINK. The CAR STARTS UP, pulls out of the park to
exit the building.
TIRES SKID as the car suddenly stops at the entrance.
Patu the Amputee Veteran runs his MOBILITY SCOOTER out in
front of the vehicle.
Patu gives the driver the fingers and carries on.
The Intelligence Agent curses, hitting the HORN with his
palm.

A dead RAT floats in front of Beth. She looks around.
LIGHT, just above the surface. She swims towards it.
