INT/EXT. IRENE'S CAR OUTSIDE CONDOMINIUM COMPLEX. NIGHT.<br />

IRENE, sitting in her car outside Jerome's condominium, hangs<br />

up her portable phone. In her agitation, her finger<br />

involuntarily goes to her pulse. She catches herself and<br />

removes the finger from her wrist as if it has burned her.<br />

She exits the car.<br />

INT. JEROME'S CONDOMINIUM/EUGENE'S CONDOMINIUM. NIGHT.<br />

IRENE quietly knocks on Jerome's door but there is no<br />

response. Trying the handle, the door opens. Her curiosity<br />

takes her inside. All is quiet. IRENE calls out.<br />

Hello.<br />

IRENE<br />

No reply. Irene hesitantly ventures further, drawn to the<br />

spiral staircase. She tentatively makes her way down the<br />

stairs and into Eugene's dimly lit condominium. With wonder<br />

and reverence, she examines the instruments and samples laid<br />

out on Eugene's work benches. She opens the refrigerator in<br />

the bathroom and inspects the samples and sachets. Finally<br />

she regards the empty incinerator.<br />

Irene turns.<br />

EUGENE (OC)<br />

Quite something, isn't it?<br />

Eugene has entered through the mirrored door, not at all<br />

displeased <strong>by</strong> her unexpected visit.<br />

EUGENE<br />

(referring to the<br />

incinerator)<br />

That's where we get rid of the<br />

traces of him although we never<br />

truly succeeded.<br />

IRENE<br />

I've been looking for him. Do you<br />

know where he is?<br />

EUGENE<br />

(unconcerned)<br />

He's probably leaving some more of<br />

me around the place before he goes.<br />

Eugene idly inspects one of the blood sachets.
