We see 2 Section on the beach playing volleyball. They noisily
play.
Molly is watching from a towel on the beach. In shorts and a t-shirt
she could be a normal holiday maker, as could all the other soldiers
around on their decompression. But Molly is preoccupied with sad
memories. She keeps remembering when James and Smurf were shot,
hearing the voices of the scene in her head.
Kinders sees her and comes over with a can of drink.
KINDERS:
There you go.
MOLLY:
(taking it)
You're a gent. And there ain't many of
us left, as me grandad said.
Kinders sits on a towel next to Molly's and they both drink looking
out to sea and the members of the platoon play on the beach.
KINDERS:
Don't fancy a dip in the sea, no?
MOLLY:
I can't really swim. But don't tell that
lot of piss taking tossers.
KINDERS:
How’d you get in the army if you can#t
swim?
MOLLY:
Pulled a sickie that day.
Kinders throws her a glance knowing this friendly chat is a sham
and that Molly is traumatised.
KINDERS:
There's people here you can talk to,
you know.
MOLLY:
I'm talking to you.
KINDERS:
You know what I'm talking about.
MOLLY:
I just wanna go home. This is pointless.
KINDERS:
It's decompression.
MOLLY:
If we were complete I'd understand. But
we ain't, we're two down.
KINDERS:
Look, I know you're pretty loved up by
him, but he's in the best possible
hands.
Molly stares at him. Beat.
KINDERS (CONT'D)
Oh come on, it was a bit obvious.
MOLLY:
What?
KINDERS:
You and Smurf.
There is a pause while Molly looks at Kinders.
KINDERS (CONT'D)
Thank God he's gonna be
alright.
MOLLY:
What d'you mean by that? You said thank
god 'he's' gonna be alright, like the
boss ain't.
KINDERS:
The boss has gonna have to have an
operation.
MOLLY:
Why?
KINDERS:
There's been complications.
MOLLY:
Is that bad?
KINDERS:
It's not good, Dawes.
They both feel the pain of the moment.

But at least you've got Smurf.
We close in on Molly.
He raises his glass.
10:
09:41 INT. MILITARY AIRCRAFT. DAY 24. 10:30.The platoon are being flown back to the UK.
Molly looks around at the faces of the other members of her platoon.
All their lives changed since that flight heading out to Afghan.
They are all expressionless. Pensive.
As Molly shuts her eyes she sees flashbacks reminding her of a
James being shot.
She opens her eyes. After a moment she shuts them again, exhausted.
This time she has a flashback of Badrai holding his gun.
This time Molly forces her eyes to stay wide open, uncomfortable
