Unbreakable

The train starts to pull out.

CUT TO:

INT. PASSENGER CAR - DAY

David sits with his coat on his lap. He's wearing a tie. He doesn't look very

comfortable in it.

He feels a stare. He looks up to find a girl, six or seven years old, peering at

him from over the seat in front of him. She just gazes at him blankly.

He gives her a small forced smile. She doesn't react. David returns his head to

the window.

His eyes begin to shut with the lulling movement of the train.

WOMAN(o.s.)

You alone?

David looks in the direction of THE VOICE. A WOMAN with dark hair and light blue

eyes stands in the aisle with two bags over her shoulder. She's wearing a tight

white t-shirt and jeans. She's beautiful.

David nods "yes."

The woman starts putting her bags on the shelf above the seats. She stretches to

get them up. Her toned stomach is exposed. She has a silver ring pierced through

her navel.

David has a gold ring on his hand. He fiddles with it. Beat. He gently slips off

his wedding band. It goes into his coat pocket.

The woman takes the seat next to him.

Beat. A LOUD VIOLENT BURST OF SOUND. The passenger car shakes as a passing

train barrels by two feet from David's window. It passes in a few seconds. The

car returns to a QUIET HUM.

David pulls a magazine out from the seat pocket in front of him.

He holds the woman's fashion magazine out.

DAVID:

Someone left these. You want

one?

The woman looks over the one being offered and then points to the Sports

Illustrated peeking out of the seat pocket.

David pulls the magazine out and gives it to her.

DAVID:

You like sports?

WOMAN:

It's my field. I represent

athletes. I'm an agent.

DAVID:

What a coincidence? I'm a

male synchronized swimmer

and I'm looking for

representation.
