Sun Choke Page #2

Synopsis: As she recovers from a recent violent psychotic break, Janie (Hagan) is subjected each day to a bizarre holistic health and wellness regimen designed, and enforced, by her lifelong nanny and caretaker, Irma (Crampton). Janie begins to veer off the road to recovery when she develops an obsession with a young woman, Savannah (Lane), that Janie feels an inexplicable yet profound connection to. The obsession turns increasingly invasive, and wedges all three women into an ever-tightening, and terrifying struggle for control. Will Janie pull herself back from the precipice of insanity? Or will she go over head-first, taking anyone nearby down with her?

- I saw you'

I know what this is about.

Do you really want

to risk everything

we've accomplished

in this last year?

Are you so desperate

to destroy yourself?

- It's not what you think'

- We'll see.

Sit.

Don't make this any

harder then it already is.

And...

- This will make

you feel better.

Be the reflection of the

moon over the water.

The moon doesn't get wet.

And the water is never broken.

For all it's vastness,

the moon and the

entire sky can be

reflected in a puddle'

Even in a drop of water

When you cease to be the water,

and become the reflection.

You begin to fully realize the

limitless. of the light.

- What's going on in here?

What are you doing?

- Nothing.

- Come here and let

me look at you.

Tricky, tricky'

You've been busy'

- I didn't.

- Where's your toy then?

Where are you hiding it?

All right, you've had your fun.

Now give those to me.

You use to do the

same thing when

you were a baby'

If you thought

something was yours,

you wouldn't give it

up for anything.

You are entitled to

absolutely nothing.

The only thing standing

between you and the abyss,

is how much I love you'

You know what happens when

we run out of options.

You think this is the

end of anything?

You think it'll be

any different once I'm gone?

Who would you be without me?

- My god, what happened?

Are you okay?

Jesus, Ma-

Margo?

Do you remember me?

Can I take you home?

I can come inside,

if you don't want to be alone'

What is this?

What are you doing?

Margo, please...

- Why are you doing this?

I was just trying to help you.

Stop

- Margo, please.

- Good morning, little girl.

- Good morning.

- Please, I don't want it.

Please'

I need to go to the bathroom.

Will you just tell me what

I need to do to make this stop.

Please'

Just tell me what

I did and I'll fix it.

What are you gonna

do when people

find out about this?

Huh?

What are you gonna do?

Don't, please'

Please'

Please.

You can look at me, you know.

You could talk to me.

I think I understand

what you want.

And if it's going to

make things okay,

I want to give It to you.

But you have to look at me.

You have to come closer.

Closer

Closer

What?

I'm sorry'

I didn't mean to upset you.

F***ing say something to me'

- All right.

We're almost done.

Do you need the paper?

No.

I can do it.

- Good.

Lets begin.

In futurity...

- I prophecy'

- That the earth from...

- Sleep.

- Grade the sentence.

- Deep.

- Shall arise and...

- Seek.

- From her maker...

- Meek.

- And the desert wild...

- Become a garden mild.

- I'm going to give you a word.

And I'd like you to

repeat it back to me.

I read a poem

that reminded me of you.

Wadda goda grazes.

- Matchbook.

That's good.

- I read a poem

that reminded me of you.

Can you ask me the

name of the poem.

- Ask me the name.

You f***ing a**hole'

You motherfuh...

I f***ing hate this stupid,

motherfucking sh*t.

- Now stand.

Raise your right arm.

Now walk with me.

Put your right hand on the wall.

Hit the wall with your forehead.

- You are better at

throwing a javelin

discus and shotput.

I am the better swimmer.

You are better with people.

You are taller.

You are better making.

You are better making.

Our names are different.

Our faces are different'

I like to talk about

what it's like at the

bottom of the diff.

I like to talk about

to talk about what

it's like on the way down.

I was a breech birth.

I came out the wrong way.

My mother's cervix

wasn't dilated enough

for my head to pass through.

So I got stuck.

She wouldn't let me go.

Like she knew what would

happen when she did.

She died less than

an hour after I was born.

I killed her

I wonder sometimes

if I meant to.

Or would it...

How it would've

been if it was me.

But I know now,

that I'm still here

because of you.

I had to be here for

you to find me.

No'

I know what a difficult

position you're in.

I know you're afraid'

You didn't want or...

expect things to

turn out this way.

But I want to know you too.

I know you imagined

a thousand versions

of us before you

finally found me.

There's a void in me,

that I know exists

in you too'

An empty space'

Where we both belong.

Margo'

Margo, please'

Janie, please'

- Janie?

Is that your real name?

- Sun choke.
