Murderland Page #15

MATTHEW:

I'm a little self conscious here. I

can't urinate if you're gonna be

watching from the video camera.

The toilets begin to flush automatically. The brown

colored water starts to fill the floor. The room tips

slightly toward them. Matthew starts to slide a little.

JOHNNY:

(V.O. from P.A.)

Maybe you should get over fears.

ZACH:

(V.O. from P.A.)

Well, Mr. Parker it seems that your is

not the wardrobe of choice tonight. I'm

quite confident that my tie is looking

better than yours.

MATTHEW:

(beat, realizing who's voice

it is)

You son of a b*tch ! I knew this wasn't

about my parking tickets.

ZACH:

(V.O. from P.A.)

That water there is piped in from the

great toilets of the upper class. I

hope you brought a snorkel.

The ceiling begins to lower. Matthew stares longingly at

the door. It's locked.

INT. SUBWAY CAR, MURDERLAND - NIGHT

Bruce holds on to the rail as this thing corners

harshly. Saundra keeps losing her grip on the rail.

SAUNDRA:

So where does this lead ?

BRUCE:

No where. We've got about seven minutes

before this thing slams into a concrete

wall.

SAUNDRA:

So what do we do ?

BRUCE:

I'm working on it.

SAUNDRA:

Who the hell are you anyway ? What is

this place ?

BRUCE:

It's called Murderland. It's paid for

by First Bank.

SAUNDRA:

First Bank ? But how ?

BRUCE:

It's a tax write off for John C. McCay.

SAUNDRA:

McCay knows ?

BRUCE:

Knows ? He watches every "Guest" on

tape. This whole place is here for his

sick amusement. And no so are we.

The lights flicker out as they round another corner.

INT. SUBWAY MEN'S ROOM, MURDERLAND - NIGHT

The ceiling is closing, and so is the nasty brown water

from the toilets.

Matthew is staring in the mirror of the broken, dirty

mirror. He has given up.

MATTHEW:

I got it ! get over your fear.

He stands next to a urinal. He unzips his fly.

MATTHEW (CONT'D)

Oh god, this is bad.

INT. CONTROL ROOM, MURDERLAND

JOHNNY:

Look he figured it out !

ZACH:

(into microphone)

I can see your small business ! Look at

it it's so small.

INT. SUBWAY MEN'S ROOM, MURDERLAND - NIGHT

Matthew is trying to pee. His eyes are closed.

MATTHEW:

I know that this might seem like the

right time to come out of the closet,

but believe me, it's not.

INT. CONTROL ROOM, MURDERLAND

Johnny is laughing and pointing at Zach who is fuming

and turning red.

MATTHEW:

(on monitor)

Unless of course the guy your with is

your lover. By all means let it out.

Start sharing the gay love.

Johnny stops laughing. He slams down on a switch.

INT. SUBWAY MEN'S ROOM, MURDERLAND - NIGHT

The room tilts even more with a sudden jolt.

Matthew looks up surprised ! He's Peeing !

MATTHEW:

Ha ! yes Yes Yes !

As soon as he's finished, a door opens up on the wall.

MATTHEW:

Cardinal rule, lovebirds, once you

start peeing you can't stop.

Matthew flushes and runs out the open door that opened

in the wall.

INT. SUBWAY, MURDERLAND - NIGHT

Bruce has his eyes closed. Saundra jumps up. She goes to

the door and breaks the glass with her elbow.

BRUCE:

What are you doing ?

SAUNDRA:

I'm leaving.

She jumps out. Bruce smiles at this. He follows suit.

INT. CONTROL ROOM, MURDERLAND

Johnny looks at his monitors. He was so busy with

Matthew he didn't notice them jump.

On the moniter, we see the empty subway hit the concrete

wall at full speed, smashing itself to pieces.

ZACH:

Look ! Look !

JOHNNY:

Sh*t, I forgot about them. Well, I

guess the boss man wasn't as tough as I

thought.

ZACH:

I don't know. Maybe we should watch the

tape to be sure.

JOHNNY:

You're paying the bills.

INT. SUBWAY TUNNEL, MURDERLAND - NIGHT

Saundra is walking (limping may be more accurate) back

towards the station (fake station anyway). Bruce is

trailing behind.

BRUCE:

Hey ! Hey ! I'm talking to you !
