Paranormal Activity Page #4
Josh, Athena and Collin meeting Jim and Ellen.
10.
JIM:
Mr. Keeling? I’m Jim Crowley and
this is my wife, Ellen.
JOSH:
Please call me Josh. These are my
associates, Athena Ortiz and Collin
Clark.
Everybody shakes hands. We hear Delila BELLOW.
JIM:
That’s Delila.
JOSH:
We need to take a look at her.
Ellen notices Collin adjusting the M-PAC.
ELLEN:
You’re not going to kill her, are
you?
COLLIN:
Oh no, ma’am. This is an M-PAC
device. Multi-Purpose Attack and
Control. It’s charged with a nonlethal
pulse of super-compressed
argon gas.
JOSH:
Actually, I thought we’d let Athena
take the lead.
Collin is put-out. Athena reacts, who me?
The barn is a mess and full of shadows. Josh and Athena
enter. They can hear Delila’s HEAVY BREATHING coming from
somewhere in the darkness. Warily, they creep forward.
ATHENA:
Josh, I have a confession to make.
JOSH:
Now?
ATHENA:
I’m a little worried about the
bruja thing. I mean I’ve watched
my Grandmother a lot but I’ve never
actually done stuff on my own.
We hear a threatening HUFF. Delila steps into view. Her
condition has worsened, she looks truly berserk.
11.
JOSH:
I think you better get started.
ATHENA:
I’ll try an incantation from El
Salmo de Los Muertos. It’s
supposed to have a calming effect
on animals.
Athena holds her hands out, palms up, intones in Spanish:
ATHENA:
Este en la paz apacible tranquilo,
ningún daño vendrá a usted, esté
en la paz con mí y curaré su dolor.
Deje la energía de mi terraplén del
corazón usted con amor y deje el--
Suddenly, Delila lets out a roaring BELLOW.
ATHENA:
I don’t think this is working.
Delila paws the ground and charges.
ATHENA:
Josh?
Josh seems unconcerned, Delila building speed.
ATHENA:
Josh?!
JOSH:
Anytime, Collin.
Collin appears with the M-PAC and fires. An INVISIBLE PULSE
warps the air, hits Delila and stops her cold. She staggers.
Angle on Josh, Athena and Collin as we hear Delila SLUMP to
the ground. Collin looks at Athena, smug.
COLLIN:
Radio Shack. There is no
substitute.
A LITTLE LATER:
Josh examining the unconscious Delila, Athena taking pictures
with a digital camera, Jim and Ellen watching.
JOSH:
She’s got no obvious contusions or
lacerations, no blood anywhere.
Josh uses a mini-lite to check Delila’s eyes.
12.
JIM:
If you don’t mind my asking, how
does a fella get into a field like
this?
JOSH:
Started early. I was that kid.
(off Delila) Her pupils are dilated
but she’s not aphasic.
JIM:
That kid?
INT. (FLASHBACK) YOUNG JOSH’S ROOM/APARTMENT --EVENING
A chemistry set, models of spaceships hanging on wires,
terrariums full of lizards and spiders, a poster of Stephen
King looming over everything. YOUNG JOSH, 10 years old,
reading a comic book with great concentration, stacks of them
nearby, a PET SNAKE slithering up his arm.
