The Quiet Ones Page #4

A toast. Brian, you make it.

(STAMMERING) I don't know...

Be quick with it now. No thinking.

HARRY:
Come on.

To Jane.

ALL:
To Jane!

I think he's falling in love.

KRISSI:
My, my.

HARRY:

He'll be bringing her flowers next.

(ALL LAUGH)

(POP MUSIC PLAYING)

Harry.

Brian, she's had her

sleep. Keep her up.

(KRISSI GIGGLES)

HARRY:
I love you.

KRISSI:
Now why would you need to ruin

the mood with that filthy, filthy word?

Good night, Brian. (GIGGLES)

Good night.

(KRISSI GIGGLES)

(KRISSI SQUEALS)

KRISSI:
Ow!

(CRASH)

(BOTH SCREAMING)

Bed broke.

Sorry about that.

I'm not.

Good night, Brian.

(KRISSI GIGGLES)

(GASPS)

You look tired. Why

don't you go to bed.

I'll take over.

(JANE GRUNTS)

(GRUNTS)

(WHISPERING) Harry.

Come see this.

Can you see her?

(WHISPERING) Krissi. Krissi!

BRIAN:
(STAMMERING)

I need the lights.

HARRY:
Is that enough?

BRIAN:
Yeah, yeah, perfect.

(GRUNTS)

Now you feel better, don't you?

May we see her, Jane?

She's pretty.

So, why are you doing this to her?

Hmm?

Is Evey losing her hair?

Is she sick?

HARRY:
Is she someone you hated?

Did she hurt you when

you were little?

Jane, please try to remember.

Hey, stop it, stop it!

You must let us help you. Okay?

Help me? God, no.

No one can help me.

They act like I'm invisible.

Do you want to see me disappear?

Sure. Weak pulse.

HARRY:
Brian, look at this.

You see that?

BRIAN:
What is that?

Looks like she's been

scratching something.

KRISSI:
Shh!

(KRISSI SCREAMING)

(GRUNTING)

Jane, Jane! Harry!

Jane, Jane!

HARRY:
Come on, Krissi,

come on, get up. Come on!

- What is with you?

- Do you want to meet Evey?

- What?

- She's inside me right now.

- Jane.

- Take me.

- Jane!

- She's inside me.

- Feel Evey. You can even touch her.

- What are you doing?

Stop! Stop!

- COUPLAND:
Let him go.

- Coward.

Take your hands out of his

trousers now, please.

Thank you.

I'm sorry. It wasn't

what it looked like.

I know.

(JANE LAUGHING)

(STAMMERING)

I don't understand what's going on.

It's obvious. She's aware

of your feelings for her,

which could be very

dangerous for you.

JANE:
(OVER SPEAKER) Coward.

Better go.

Coward!

(JANE LAUGHING)

(CLEARS THROAT)

It's a job.

You can quit anytime. She's

not your responsibility.

(SCREECHES)

(CHUCKLES)

Come on.

(SIGHS)

(STATIC BURST)

She's here.

HARRY:

EMF hit, sensors one through five.

COUPLAND:
Like you to let us

talk to Evey. Will you do that?

One knock for yes, two for no.

(KNOCKS TWICE)

HARRY:
EMF sensor five.

- JANE:
It's so hot.

- She's right there, guys.

There's a fire.

No, no, there's no fire.

You're perfectly safe.

Krissi, pass me a candle.

Here you are.
