The lights from the busses reflect on the windows
of the building we are in.
As we pull back we reveal Guy Pearce sat casually
in a swivel chair (with his back to us), wearing a grey PVC jacket and
a brown strapped shirt. We focus on his reflection in the office window.

Pookie Quesnel appears from a bathroom into a darkened room illuminated by street-lighting and a television, pulling the cord to turn off the light. She's wearing a classy dressing gown, somewhere between pink and peach in hue, with a large but unobtrusive floral design. She's drying her hair and putting the towel into a turban.

A ski-lift is running across a path. Chairs clatter along the chains overhead. All very eerie. Think the oil pumps in Touch of Evil.

Guy shoots the door lock out with some sort of explosive laser gun, and kicks the door open. He manhandles Pookie Quesnel (in some sort of bondage-lite outfit) out of the door.

Guy Pearce and Amelia Bullmore (in a big woollen coat) walk slowly past rows of Victorian gravestones as far as the eye can see. It's dark and a little eerie.
