17 CONT:
17On Beth, eyeing her, hating her.
18 INT. JS MOTORS - OFFICE AREA - DAY 11 - 16.05 18
Beth strides purposefully across the office, passing the
sales team (Marty, Pete and Emma all working) and reception -
where one of the young sales girls - AMELIE - is covering for
Tracy and Viv.
BETH:
Alright, Amelie, you coping?
AMELIE:
Shouldn’t I get paid double for
this, if I’m covering two jobs?
BETH:
No, Tracy and Viv only work half as
hard as you do
And Beth’s away before Amelie can question the logic of that.
Ziggy passes reception, doesn’t even glance at Amelie.
AMELIE:
Hi Ziggy
ZIGGY:
Oh, hi Emily
AMELIE:
Amelie.
(big smile)
Corrected, he’s away again. She exhales, gutted, he doesn’t
even remember her name...
Beth marches into Kathy’s office and is surprised to be met
BETH:
Whoa
KATHY:
Titch, sit.
BETH:
Why is your dog here?
KATHY:
Long story. Well, short story. He’s
depressed - I couldn’t leave him on
his own...
BETH:
(looking at Titch, seems
fine)
Depressed?

18 CONT:
18KATHY:
He’s lost his girlfriend, Cheryl,
BETH:
Cheryl?
KATHY:
She’s a Daschund.
BETH:
What, she died?
KATHY:
Moved away - she lived next door,
with Mark and Sally, but they’ve
gone, separated, he caught her
sleeping with the bloke from the
fish shop... so Cheryl’s moved to
Sussex - that’s the trouble with
adultery, it’s always the innocents
that suffer.
BETH:
Right.
And back in the real world...
BETH (CONT’D)
Is Mike in?
But before she can answer.
MIKE (O.S.)
For God’s sake.
Door flies open from the adjoining office.
MIKE (CONT’D)
(brandishing a letter)
How many times do I have to send
Customs and Excise the same
information - how many times. Tell
them we’ve sent it.
He flings the letter to Kathy and goes back in his office.
BETH:
(pulls face)
What’s up with him?
KATHY:
Hangover.
Then can’t resist adding the juicy bit.
KATHY (CONT'D)
His wife’s back.

She pulls a theatrical grimace, and then turns back to hercomputer as if ‘I can’t spend all day gossiping’.
Beth beds that down, goes.
19 EXT. PLAYA DORADA - EVENING 11 - 20.00 19
MOPED cruising along the coast road, lights of the towntwinkle in the distance. Tracy and Viv ride pillion.
They shout the following in a sing song, joyful way, girlsfantasizing about what they can buy -
TRACY:
Kurt Geiger boots, Jill Sanderdress VIV
Gold necklace like Beyonce wears...
TRACY:
Juicy Couture tracksuit, Mulberryjacket -

turn left, following a sign for a MIDNIGHT PARTY, readyfor their last night of fun and thrills...
20 EXT. PLAYA DORADA - BEACH PARTY - NIGHT 11 - 00.10 20
Nightclub or Beach party.
Chase & Status ‘Let You Go’ belts out - and they throw their
arms in the air and chant along, never felt more alive.

Mark this moment for Tracy - a moment of total abandon,
freedom, fun...
21 INT/EXT. HOTEL ROOM - DAY 12 - 07.30 21
Early morning.
Tracy wakes, with a hangover. She looks different, more
tanned, hair braided, traveller bracelet.
Ordinary Lies Episode Two Yellow Amendments 15.
21 CONT:
21She looks across to Viv, still out of it.
The room is a mess, evidence of a great last night party all
around them.
Tracy peels out of bed, grabs a bottle of water and heads out
onto the balcony.
She looks across the quiet pool area, then across the horizon
to the beaches and the sea beyond.
There is a stillness. No one around yet. The peace and
beauty of the place are amazing and it is one of those
perfect tranquil moments which holidays can provide.
We hold on Tracy’s face.
Hold and hold and hold... as she contemplates what is to
come...
22 INT/EXT. CAR/DOMINICAN REPUBLIC STREETS - DAY 12 - 08.45 22
Looking through a dusty windscreen at sparse Dominican
Republic roads. There’s a ramshackle feel which suggests we
are a fair distance from a big city. Tracy and Viv sit
silently, nervously, in the back of the car as it goes deeper
and deeper into foreign (and therefore scary) territory.
Ahead a small village approaches. The girls peer to see where
they’re arriving.
ANGLE - POVERTY RIDDEN GHETTO. Every face they see is black.
Children look older than their years.
Viv and Tracy share a fearful look. To their western eyes,
there’s a palpable sense of danger here.
The CAR pulls up beside a LARGE DECREPIT BUILDING. Ronaldo
motions for them to get out of the car. They silently obey.
Fear written across their faces.
As they walk towards the building they are WATCHED BY LOCALS.
It unnerves them even more.
23 INT. DECREPIT BUILDING - DAY 12 - 09.00 23
Viv and Tracy are led through the building to a room at the
far end of a corridor. As they enter the room they come face
to face with THREE SERIOUS BLACK MEN.
The leader speaks, in good English.
LEADER:
Thank you for assisting us. We’ll
make this as easy as possible.
The girls nod.

CONT:
23Theatrically, he lifts a drape from a table to reveal TWO
SMALL MOUNTAINS OF BAGGED COCAINE. Actually, they are rubber
pellets of cocaine in condom type wrapping, spherical, each
containing scores of pellets...
LEADER (CONT'D)
Drink this to lubricate the throat.
You look like girls who can
swallow.
Small laughter from around the room. This repels Viv and
Tracy. They are moved towards the bags of coke.
They are terrified.
And in a long dialogue free sequence, we watch as the girls
start the process of swallowing the bags.
Drink of liquid. Bag into mouth. Swallow.
Viv gags a bit on the first one, but manages to get it down
with a little liquid.
Tracy gets on with the task, almost on auto pilot, like she
has turned her mind off to where she is and what she is
doing, she’s a mule machine.
It’s a hideous process but the MEN stand watching
dispassionately, they have done this a hundred times. Their
only concern is that every single bag goes inside those two
bodies.
EXT. DOMINICAN REPUBLIC STREETS - DAY 12 - 11.30 24
Tracy and Viv being driven to the airport by Bale and
Ronaldo. They pass ordinary life going on. People preparing
It’s the longest, scariest journey of their entire life. And
the antithesis of their journey on arrival.
RONALDO:
You must check in separately, sit
separately, do not talk to each
other until you are on the plane.
They nod their understanding. And we move down from the
girls’ fearful faces to see that they are holding hands.
INT. INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT - DOMINICAN - DAY 12 - 13.00 25
Viv walks into the airport and immediately scans for
