I Spit on Your Grave Page #15

ANDY:

Idiot wanted to stay there. He was

walking around in the water,

looking for her like some crazed

dog after a bone.

JOHNNY:

Jesus Christ. He's not playing

with a full deck as it is.

JOHNNY (CONT'D)

The last thing we need is him

getting squirrelly on us.

(looks at the two of them)

ISOYG PINK 10/29/09 51.

JOHNNY (CONT-D)

We all got to make sure he keeps it

together, okay?

(THEY NOD)

Least until all this sh*t blows

over.

The flames rise up and engulf her remaining personal items.

49 EXT. SHERIFF STORCH'S HOUSE - NIGHT 49

Sheriff Storch pulls up to his house. He parks in the

driveway and gets out of his car.

He walks slowly up to his front door. Just as he reaches out

to grab the door handle, the front door opens. MRS. STORCH

is there to greet him.

MRS. STORCH

Gone all day. I got nervous.

Anything worth telling?

50 INT. SHERIFF STORCH'S HOUSE - NIGHT 50

Mrs. Storch closes the door behind them. Chastity races from

her room holding a piece of paper.

CHASTITY:

Daddy! Daddy!

Sheriff Storch picks up his daughter and kisses her head.

SHERIFF STORCH:

Just the usual, domestic dispute

out near Clifton. Took forever.

(BEAT)

Got anything on the stove?

MRS. STORCH

Sure. I'll reheat it.

(RE:
CHASTITY)

You'll be proud.

Chastity brings forth the piece of paper. Sheriff turns to

her.

SHERIFF STORCH:

Oh yeah, what am I gonna be proud

of?

ISOYG PINK 10/29/09 52.

CHASTITY:

I was accepted to the honors

program, daddy. can you believe

it?

Sheriff puts her down. Proud.

SHERIFF STORCH:

Of course I can. I expect nothing

less from my Angel.

(BEAT)

Mommy and I are proud of you. Real

proud.

(BEAT)

Alright. I'm gonna shower up.

Sheriff walks of as Mrs. Storch watches for a second and

then heads into the kitchen.

51 EXT. EARL'S PLACE - DAY 51

Sheriff Storch's cruiser pulls up to Earl's house and comes

to a stop in a cloud of dust.

52 EXT. EARL'S PLACE - DAY 52

Sheriff Storch stands on Earl's porch, pounds on the door.

EARL (O.S.)

It's open.

Sheriff Storch pushes open the screen door.

53 INT. EARL'S PLACE - DAY 53

He enters. Immediately, he brings his hand to his mouth and

coughs violently.

SHERIFF STORCH:

Every time I come in here this

place gets worse.

Earl's bent over one of the tanks, elbow-deep in fetid water.

EARL:

Yeah, but business gets better.

That's the trade off.

ISOYG PINK 10/29/09 53.

SHERIFF STORCH:

Yeah, well, you're lucky I don't

cite you for being a public health

hazard.

Sheriff Storch reaches into his pocket and pulls out a set of

keys. He holds them in the air and JINGLES them. Earl

finally looks up, confused.

SHERIFF STORCH (CONT'D)

Mockingbird Trail.

EARL:

Mockingbird Trail, what? -- Oh,

right, Miss Hills. What happened?

She left?

SHERIFF STORCH:

Yeah, I couldn't make heads or

tails of it. Found marijuana

cigarettes, case of booze, looked

to me like she was a party girl...

a very wild one.

EARL:

Yeah, yeah. I had her pegged from

minute one. She wreck the place?

SHERIFF STORCH:

Nah, place is fine. She packed up

and split.

EARL:

My lucky day.

SHERIFF STORCH:

Why's that?

EARL:

No refund policy.

SHERIFF STORCH:

Christmas come early. Enjoy it.

EARL:

(changes the subject)

Speaking of early, only a month

'til quail season. Don't know

about you but I'm getting tired of

shooting squirrels.

SHERIFF STORCH:

Me too.

ISOYG PINK 10/29/09 54.

Earl nods. Sheriff tips his hat and walks out.

DISSOLVE TO:

54 EXT. HENDERSONVILLE RIVER - DAY 54

THE CAMERA tilts down from the treeline and falls back on

Hendersonville. It's serene, peaceful and lonely.

Matthew sits in a small boat. He's been patrolling for

Jennifer's body, but now the boat just sits in the middle of

the swamp where the river runs out.

He stares out into the water as we slowly creep closer, and

closer until we're extremely close on his face, his eyes

unmoving.

A55 EXT. SERVICE STATION - DAY A55

POV:
A car with two women pulls up to the gas pump. Johnny

comes out of the garage and saunters over to them.

Johnny playfully harasses the women. To a casual observer,

it would seem harmless. But we know it could be the prelude

to something unspeakable.

Finally, the women pull away. Johnny walks back into the

garage, a smug, self-satisfied smile on his face.

55 INT. SERVICE STATION, GARAGE - DAY 55

Andy is bent over Jennifer's car, or at least what's left of

it. At this point, it's nothing more than a shell. He wears

a welding helmet and is hard at work with a blowtorch.

ANDY:

(from under the car)

Round up some tail out there?
