Surveillance Page #5

Synopsis: Grisly murders occur in a small town. Two FBI agents arrive, set up their cameras in three interview rooms, and set up interviews of three survivors: a girl of about nine, a foul-mouthed cop with a bandaged hand, and a young woman of about 20 who uses drugs. Each tells their story as the male FBI agent listens and watches from a separate room: the girl draws for and talks to the female agent, the local chief interviews the injured cop, and two officers interview the young woman. As they tell their stories, some of which are inaccurate and self-serving, we see what actually happened the day before. Can the agents or anyone else put the pieces together?

Too hot to be f. B.I.

Hello...

F***.

What was that?

C'mere...

C'mere...

C'mere...

I didn't hear that.

What was that you said?

I said she was way too

Fuckable to be f. B.I.

There was something else...

I said she smelled like you.

I like that, and I want you

To tell her that when she comes

Back in.

Okay.

Let's get back to

Where we were, alright?

C'mere. You wanna hear this.

Let's go back.

Wanna go back to the point

We were talking about?

'Cause this was my

favourite part of the day.

You and your b*tch

Can go f*** yourselves.

Whoa.

Hey.

I know what you're looking at,

We're gonna deal with the gun

Later, alright?

It's fun now.

Okay?

'cause first of all

Even though, regrettably,

The captain here is unable

To hear your admission,

And that would'a been perfect, but...

I want you now to

Admit that you killed...

I want you now to

Admit that you killed...

Your own partner.

F***. You.

No.

That's not the right answer.

Bye baby...

You killed my partner.

Oh, please.

Jack, you okay?

It's, it's not the missing woman;

It's one of the f***ing killers!

Ugh! Jack!

Hostage is a suspect!

I may have orchestrated it

But they were your bullets.

This is kind of amazing.

F*** you, you f***ing

Drug-addict whore.

Hey, no, she's impressed!
