Ms. 45 Page #3

Synopsis: In Manhattan, Thana is a timid and mute woman that works as a seamstress in the fashion industry and spends most of her idle time at home. One night, she gets raped in an alley while going back home after hours and when she arrives at home, she gets raped again by another criminal. However, she reacts and bludgeons the assaulter to his death with a flatiron. The disturbed Thana loses her sanity and uses a .45 caliber pistol to shoot men on the streets of New York. She dresses suggestively and roams the dark streets alone, wreaking vengeance upon anyone who tries to take advantage of her. Eventually, her secret life overflows into her regular life in the fashion industry.

What's all that makeup?

Good Heavens!

I've never seen you look like that.

Your eyes.

And your lips are so heavily made up.

''Staying overnight with a friend.''

What friend?

I'm tired of you playing

your little game. You understand?

Now I want the rest of my money.

Well, I don't have any money.

I gave you $50, didn't I?

You sure you ain't got 50 more?

How much do you think he gonna give me.

You sure you ain't got 50 more?

5 minutes we were in there.

He much do you think he gonna give me?

And besides baby.

You know I wouldn't hold out on you.

Listen baby, that last trick

Now I gave him 100 dollars.

You gonna give me 50.

I don't care how much you gave

him, but he gave me 50 dollars.

You calling my friend a liar?

Yeah!

What? You call my friend a liar?

I swear he gave me 50 dollars!

Stop hitting me no more!

Perhaps I can give you a lift somewhere.

Are you going anywhere particular?

Then perhaps you like

to come with me tonight.

Here, with the news.

Police are still mystified

by two apparently unconnected multiple murders

that took place in midtown Manhattan last night

and the largest mass killing in

New York City in 8 years.

At the fountain in Central Park

all the victims have been shot

with a .45 caliber pistol.

Meanwhile, at 48th Street

and Park Avenue,

a wealthy Saudi

Arabian businessman

Sheikh Mohammed Al Fazal

was shot to death almost

Oh, it's Thana! Come on in.

Oh, you brought something for Phil?

Here, Phil.

Look what Thana brought you.

Since the Sheikh was found

carrying more than $2800

in cash.

Police are continuing

both investigations.

Talks will resume this morning

between the sanitation workers of the city

hoping to head off a strike

now scheduled to begin at 12:01 AM

There she goes again, Phil.

Hey, you going out or what?

But, just not coming back

to work from lunch on Friday.

I mean, how could you do that?

It's just not fair to the other girls.

On top of having to finish

your work for you,

before they could go home,

they were worried sick.

You could of at least

gotten word back to us somehow

had Mrs. Nasony called.

Thana, darling...

You promised the other day.

Remember?

You would try.

And look what happened.

And now I hear from the other girls

that you're not coming with us

to the Halloween party.

Well from this, all I can

Now, this is good news.

Do you know where it is?

Are you planning on going with someone?

Would you like to go with me?

I don't believe it.

Have you've ever seen her before?

Yes, I've seen her in there.
