16 INT. AMBULANCE - DAY 5 (2014) 16

The WOMAN lies unconscious on a gurney. A PARAMEDIC isattending to her, and shining a light in her eyes, for aresponse. She’s groggy and not with it. But she pulls on heroxygen mask which the paramedic helps her with.

WOMAN:

(slurred)

Help me please...

PARAMEDIC:

English? Can you tell me your name,

Miss...

The ambulance takes a sharp corner, jolting them. She callsout to the driver up front -

PARAMEDIC (CONT’D)PARAMEDIC (CONT’D)

(German; subtitled)(German translation)

Hey, Schumacher, I know we’re Hey, Schumacher, ich wei.,

(English; to Woman)ankommen.

Is there someone we can call

for you? To join us at the

hospital?

The woman turns to her, in a daze. Drifting in and out ofconsciousness.

WOMAN:

Sophie... Giroux...

PARAMEDIC:

(broken English)

Who is that? Your mother? Your

sister?

No reply.

PARAMEDIC (CONT’D)

We will try to find her. Tell us -

what is your name?

The woman groans, clearly out of it. She reaches out herhand, which the paramedic takes. Then her eyes close as sheloses consciousness. The paramedic puts the mask back onher, still holding her hand. She looks down at it - and seesomething. There, on her wrist, we see a tattoo of aspider’s web. Just like the girl from the opening scene.

And that’s when we realise - this woman is ALICE WEBSTER...
