CHUCK
I’m turning in. Give me my keys.
(The bartender looks at Chuck for a moment who is wobbling a little bit and holding out his hand for the car keys.)
BARTENDER
Chuck, I’m not sure your o.k. to… ah, never mind.
(The bartender hands over the keys and Chuck exits. Cut to a close up of the T.V. which shows a female news anchor and to file photo of Katie.)
NEWS ANCHOR
In other news: Fugitive Katherine Murphy is still at large. So far she has killed six male counterparts, two female, and one house cat. Police are urging people to stay in their homes and not to confront Katherine if they happen to see her.
(Cut to a medium shot of the bartender and some drunk that he is handing a drink to as he turns to look up at the screen.)
BARTENDER
Wait a minute. I know her.
(The camera zooms in on him as he pauses to make it look like he is about to say something dramatic.)
BARTENDER
That news anchor up there is my niece!
(Cut back to the previous mediums shot. The bartender is nudging the drunk trying to get his attention.)
BARTENDER
She always said she’d make it on T.V. and there she is!
DRUNK
(Bored) Hurray.
NEWS ANCHOR
This just in: After looking at some security footage from a local bar police have spotted Katherine socializing with this man who has been identified as Duke Butchmann. They still have no other leads on her location nor have they been able to contact Duke. Our experts predict that Katherine will most likely kill him tonight.
BARTENDER
(Still only paying attention to his niece.) Good for her.
INT. KATIE’S LIVING ROOM – NIGHT
(Scene opens on Duke and Katie who are both sitting on Katie’s couch while drinking wine. Duke pretends to yawn and stretch while he “sneakily” puts his arm around Katie.)
KATIE
I’m really glad you’re here Duke.
DUKE
(Smugly) Why wouldn’t you be?
KATIE
