Surveillance Page #4

Synopsis: Grisly murders occur in a small town. Two FBI agents arrive, set up their cameras in three interview rooms, and set up interviews of three survivors: a girl of about nine, a foul-mouthed cop with a bandaged hand, and a young woman of about 20 who uses drugs. Each tells their story as the male FBI agent listens and watches from a separate room: the girl draws for and talks to the female agent, the local chief interviews the injured cop, and two officers interview the young woman. As they tell their stories, some of which are inaccurate and self-serving, we see what actually happened the day before. Can the agents or anyone else put the pieces together?

Ballistics?

No. But you know he is

Big on hair and fibers.

It's kind of his... Specialty.

Apparently they left a lot of that.

You know what I'm wondering?

Why would they be so sloppy?

They're likely to improve.

Oh. Of course. Yeah.

Unless, ma'am...

They just don't give a sh*t.

Oh my god...

What we do to each other, huh?

Mmh.

What are you two doin' in here?

The uh, the girl... Bobbi?

She had to piss.

Ah.

Why don't you go and make

Sure she gets back in the room?

Go on now...

Okay!

And why don't you go

Keep an eye on him.

Alright. Then?

We have, uh, areas we patrol.

Oooooh!

Nice shot!

Lookit him!

Alright.

Pick your f***in' personality.

I get to pick?

I am clearly 'good cop. '

Mmm... Thank you very much.

Friend to the people!

'Good Cop'!

We patrolled them.

I look forward to working with you

Hello officer, looks

Like I had a tire blow...

That's what it looks like, huh?

I got a solid spare, so...

Yeah, well, I'm afraid I'm going

To have to ask you to get back

In the vehicle for the moment.

Is there a problem, officer?

Well, sir... Uh.

Uh, keith.

Oh. Keith. Okay. Hi.

Um.. There's no problem with me...

But you see my

Partner back there...?

Yes sir... He looks upset.

Yeah.

Well...

We got a couple of killers

Loose... Everyone's wound up

Pretty good about it but jack there;

He's wound especially tight.

Uh, we heard something

About that on the radio...

Oh no no, it is worse than

They're saying on the radio.

Trust me. And jack there

Is, well, like I said,

Pretty wound up and we saw

You guys coming down the road,

And he swears that you were

Pullin' too much speed...

Oh, jeez, I wasn't

Speeding, officer, i, i,

Really I was going... Not

Speeding... Sir...

No. No. No. Relax,

Keith. That's what I said.

You're 'preaching to the

Choir'. That's what I told him.

It was just a normal speed,I

Was going down the road and had

A tire blow out, I'm not...

Yeah, I know. I told him. An

D he didn't like it when I did.

Here he comes... Act casual.

Get down on the f***ing ground.

Whoa... Uh...

Get down on the f***ing ground!

Now!

Get down, keith!

Go!

Oh. Whoa, whoa, whoa... Ma'am!

Please return to the vehicle.

Keith, honey...?

Please don't shoot me!

I'll be in the car, honey...

Please officers!

I'm going to ask you

To get your wallet

And give it to my partner.

Keith, it's best to do what he says,

Because when he gets like

This... It's just really crucial

That he feels like you're listening.

I'm listening... Please

Don't shoot me, officer!

We let him go with a warning...

You know how people

Get out here, captain...

Yeah.

The way they start driving

In the desolate stretches...
