Scream Page #4

---

Another CHIME. She moves to it.

CASEY:

(louder)

Who's there?

No answer. F*** this. It's time for the police. She goes for

the portable phone. Just as she picks it up...

IT RINGS.

Casey almost drops it, losing her breath...

She brings it to her ear with trembling hands, saying

nothing... listening, waiting...

A long silence. And then.

MAN:

You should never say "Who's there?".

Don't you watch scary movies? It's a

death wish.

Casey clutches the wall, nearly collapsing. She tries her

damnedest to hang tough.

CASEY:

Look, enough is enough. You had your

fun now you better leave me alone or

else.

MAN:

Or else what?

CLOSE ON her face, her mind thinking, calculating...

CASEY:

My boyfriend will be here any second

and he'll be pissed when I tell him...

MAN:

I thought you didn't have a boyfriend.

Busted. She holds steady.

CASEY:

I lied. I do have a boyfriend and

he'll be here any second and your

ass better be gone.

MAN:

Sure...

CASEY:

I swear it. And he's big and plays

football and will beat the sh*t out

of you.

MAN:

I'm getting scared.

CASEY:

I'm telling you the truth. I lied

before...

MAN:

I believe you...

CASEY:

So you better leave.

MAN:

His name wouldn't be Steve, would

it?

Silence. Casey buckles at the knees, losing it.
