Script For Film

See Me

(Opening long shot of an evidence board complete with happy go lucky pictures of dead people and newspaper cuttings) ((faded in after some sort of huge thud SFX))

(fade to black)

(second big thud SFX with the flash view of a hand, hanging down by someones side)

(fade to black)

(Third big thud thing, flash view of a tie being straightened)

(fade to black)

(shot from behind a detective, entering the room with the board in it)((shot continues until he stops in front of the board))

(flash to black with the biggest thud yet!)

(mid shot of police officer working at a desk in the corner)

Burns: (looks up) First case?

Gibbs: (extreme close up of his mouth) first case

(pause)

Burns: Well my name is Burns and I’ll be your desk jockey. Pleasure to meet you detective…?

Carter: (enters, nonchalantly and loudly, casual clothes, jacket, cocktail stick in his mouth) Sorry I’m late Gibbs, traffic. (throws jacket at Burns) get me a coffee would you.

Burns: Yes sir (looks surprised and affronted)

Carter: Actually make it a latte, i need sugar

Burns: I am more than just the coffee fetcher you know! (rises from chair with jacket draped over his shoulder)

Gibbs: We know that Burns, you’re a very valued person. (walks over and throws his jacket over Burns’ other shoulder) Instant black for me.

(Burns leaves looking exasperated)

(Gibbs opens file)

Carter: (Sniggers at Burns as he leaves and turns to look at the board) So what have we got?

Gibbs (reading): Several homicides, no connection other than a mask left at each scene with a number on it drawn in the respective victims blood.

(Several flashes of blank white masks with numbers going from 1-4 in their respective scenes)((Maybe a dubbed in echoed scream for each))

Gibbs: Each method appears to have been different in some way, first murder, Benjamin Rodwell, bludgeoned in the middle of the woods late teens and still in school, criminal record for cyber hacking

(flashback throughout explanation of murder, echoed and in short bursts, cant see the identity of killer as they are concealed by the white mask)

Gibbs: Second murder, Sheryl LeBlanc, a teen sensation in acting with a drugs history, strangled in the middle of a field, god knows how she got there

(Yet another flashback like the last one)

Gibbs: Third murder Joseph Summers, turned 22 last week shot in an alleyway somewhere in the suburbs.

(Yes you guessed it, another flashback!)

Gibbs: Fourth murder, Anne Birch, mid forties something of a business woman, found dead in her car with a broken neck.

(god, so many flashbacks!)

Carter: OK, any next of kin

Gibbs: Only one, brother of Sheryl LeBlanc, works in a funeral director, Carter, we’ll have to see her soon.

Carter: Lets go then.
