EXT. UNDERWORLD ENTRANCE. EVENING.
Before Calina can enter, Guthran opens the door. Calina freezes.
GUTHRAN:
I stepped out for some
fresh air and I could’ve
sworn I heard your voice!
CALINA:
I…I was…I talk to
myself when I’m upset.
Who else would listen?
Guthran slaps her across the face.
GUTHRAN:
I don’t believe you! Your
behavior has changed
dramatically lately, and I
think you betrayed me!
Did you make a new friend?
CALINA:
No, I swear!
Guthran slaps her again.
GUTHRAN:
I don’t trust you to go
to the outerworld anymore!
You will stay inside with
me until the day you die!
CALINA:
You can’t. You wouldn’t!
GUTHRAN:
You are my property;
I will do whatever I want!
CALINA:
Well, maybe when you’re
not looking, I’ll run away.
Guthran pulls a knife out of his boot and holds it up to her throat.
GUTHRAN:
I will always watch you.
If you want to leave, the
only out is through a
casket. ’Til death do us
part!
CALINA:
No! No! It’s…you…
She bursts into angry, scared tears as he grabs her hair and forces her to go inside.
