GLASS DOORWe hear the lock click and the door slide open as Graham
enters. It's like he's a burglar.
GRAHAM'S FEET
walk through the kitchen as if he knows where he is going.
A thermostat clicks and air conditioning comes on loudly.
Graham's feet pass our of frame...
INT. LEEDS HOUSE, SECOND STORY - FLOOR
is empty. The carpet is dark. We hear Graham's footsteps
up the stairs. Then his feet enter the frame and a flash-
light beam hits the carpet. It dwells on a couple of dark
stains. Track with Graham's feet to the entry to the master
bedroom. The bedroom is dark. We see nothing.
INT. LEEDS MASTER BEDROOM - LIGHT SWITCH
Graham's hand enters. He hits the light switch.
BLOOD:
screams at us from the walls.

WIDER - GRAHAM
moves into the room. The bloodstains are extensive. Half
the walls look like a monochromatic Jackson Pollock. The
mirrors are smashed. Taped outlines on the mattress indi-
cate where the bodies had been found. Graham opens the
file he carries containing autopsy, lab and crime reports.
OVERHEAD ANGLE - GRAHAM
standing alone in the middle of the master bedroom. The
crime scene -- the disarray, the big splashes of arterial
blood on the walls, the smashed mirrors, taped outlines or
bodies -- is a testament to a violence that is pornographic.
Graham pulls out a tape recorder and starts dictating his
own notes, thumbing through various reports for reference.
GRAHAM:
intruder entered through kitchen
sliding door. Probably a glass
cutter. Why didn't he care that he
left AB saliva on the glass? it was
hot out that night. inside, the
house must' have been pleasantly cool
to him.
(beat)
The intruder cut Charles Leeds'
throat as he lay asleep beside Mrs.
Leeds. He shot Mrs. Leeds as she was
rising... Bullet entered the right of
her navel and lodged in her lumbar
spine, but she died of strangulation...
increase of serotonin and free
histimine levels in the gunshot wound
indicates... she lived at least five
minutes after she was shot... All
her other injuries were post-mortem.
(beat>
Then he went toward the children's
room.
(beat)
Direction and velocity of blood
stains on the east wall indicate
arterial spray.;. With his throat
cut, Mr. Leeds still tried to fight.
Because the intruder was moving to
the children's room...
(beat)
in the children's room the intruder
shot the first boy in bed. Second
boy was found in bed, but dustballs
indicate he was dragged out from
under his bed to be shot...
