Riley: Sam. (Signaling for her to stop)
Sam: No! I won't stop, Riley. (Starting to talk to Calk and Dan) You knew! You worked with them. Money. That's all you wanted. You are little, disgusting, greedy, idiotic murderers! I just want to get that through you're thick brain! You didn't tell those demons to kill us but you let them here. You deserve to go to hell.

Sam is looking shocked at the front door. She also looks scared.
Calk: Hello Sam.
Sam tries to close the door but Calk pushes it back.
Calk: Are you trying to get rid of us?
Overlapping:
Sam: No. I won't work for you.

CUT TO:

He falls over and then kicks Riley while on the ground. Dan jumps up and then punches Riley. Dan then grabs hold of Riley's neck. When a vamp comes near, Riley grabs the vamp and flings him at Dan and Dan releases his grip on Riley. Calk is fighting Sam. Sam kicks Calk in the head and then takes a stake. He punches her and then pushes her into some crates. Sam then punches him twice and then slams him into some crates. He gets up with scratches all over him. Sam then throws the stake backwards so it hits Dan right in the heart. Dan falls over, dead. Riley looks shocked. Sam just looks angry and furious at Calk. She then throws him onto Dan's back. The stake is slowly going into.
Sam: Go to hell!
Sam pushes harder and the stake smashes through his bones. Sam looks shocked at the lifeless body and falls back, crying.
CUT TO:
EXT - PARK BIKE PATH - NIGHT
The female vampire is cowing down and draining the poor woman. She sucks for almost like 20 seconds on the screen, until she drops the dead, lifeless elderly woman on the bike path.
Overlapping:
Riley: Are you kidding me? This is serious. A woman died because of us!
Intank: Riley, there was nothing we could do!
Riley: Yes there was! If you didn't run into me and disregard the scream that I heard none of this would have happened!
Intank: Don't you dare blame this on me!
Riley gets up and punches Intank hard in the face.
Riley: No!!!! Don't talk! You're a jinx!!! You're nothing but a jinx!! Graham was wrong about you, I gave you a try, and I should never have! You're the reason for this woman's death!
He punches Intank hard on the face again.
Riley: I hate you! I hate everything about you! If I ever see you near Sam and Graham, people who I love, I'll kill you myself!!!!!!
He punches Intank even harder than the previous times, and runs off. We see Intank who is bruised, and greatly hurt both physically and emotionally. A tear rolls down his cheek.
TEASER.
FADE IN ON:
INT - BEDROOM - MORNING
The screen opens on the ceiling of Riley and Sam's room. We pan down to reveal Sam asleep alone in bed. The covers on Riley's side of the bed are pulled back. He is nowhere to be scene. Sam looks like she is having a really BAD dream. She is tossing and turning in bed frequently. We zoom in on her. She is definitely having a BAD dream. She mutters in her sleep:
Sam: Please- no! I had too! Please- please no!
Her tossing and turning gets more violent and quicker. Until, her dream climaxes and she lets a big scream as she awakens in bed.
Sam: No!!!!!
She is now bolt upright in her bed. Sweat pouring all over her face. She calms down, and tries to put it behind her. She cracks her neck and her shoulders. She then realizes that her husband is absent, as she looks beside her in bed.
Sam: Riley?Riley?
CU TO:
EXT - Outside of the Gold Bar- MORNING
We see an outside shot of The Gold Bar at the crack of dawn. Riley, who is walking at a brisk pace, comes into frame. He is wearing an olive t-shirt, with dark blue jeans on. He comes to a halt at the entrance to The Gold Bar. He looks almost hesitantly at the place. He has a "Why the hell did I decide do come here?" look on his face. He knocks meekly on the steel entrance. The sign does say, CLOSED, but he knows Intank is in there. He knocks a second time, with a bit more force. No answer. He turns around, and is actually about to walk away. Then, he turns around, and loudly knocks on the door three times. There is a beat. Is there really no one in there? Riley waits. And waits.
Suddenly Riley thinks that he hears someone moving in the inside. He puts his ear closer to the steel door. Suddenly, Riley hears that someone is coming. He gets back in place and stands straight up in his spot. The steel door swings open and Intank is standing in the door frame. He is shirtless, with green silky pajama pants on. Riley almost stares at him sort of awkwardly.
Riley: Hey Intank. I just wanted to say -
His speech is cut short as Intank slams the steel door in his face. Riley sighs heavily. He knocks on the door perpetually this time. Riley is insisting that Intank open the door for him. There is a beat. Then, the door opens slowly this time. Intank is in the doorframe again.
Intank: What the hell do you want?
Intank still has a couple bruises on his face from the other night. But it doesn't look THAT bad anymore.
Riley: I just wanted to talk to you.
Intank looks like Riley just woke him up from a restless sleep.
Intank (Sternly): Why should I let you? I don't owe you any of my time.
Riley: Right. Then, I'll just leave then. Bye.
Riley turns around and starts walking away at medium pace. Intank rolls his eyes; he is forced to give in.
Intank: Fine. We can talk.
Riley turns around and runs back to Intank.
Riley: Thank you. Five minutes, I promise. That's all I need.
Intank: Good, because I have stuff, I need to do.
Intank moves from the door frame to let Riley in The Gold Bar. He rolls his eyes behind his back as he slams the steel door in our face, as we:
Cut to:
EXT. Street in Laintan- Morning
We get an aerial shot of a street of Laintan in the dawn of morning. The street is very peaceful, hardly anyone on it. No traffic and barely any cars on the street, except shopkeepers opening up for the day. The hustle and bustle of the morning flow hasn't quite started just yet.
Cut to: Gilford Lane Street Sign
We get a couple seconds on a street sign on the street that says Gilford Lane. The sign is green, with Gilford Lane imprinted in clear white. We pan down, to reveal that Salomie is crossing over Gilford Lane from the other street. She walks at a steady pace, she seems like she is running severely late for work.
Salomie: My boss might give John another interesting article if I don't hurry I disagree to work. God! Why am I always late?! Aghhhh!
He arrives at the entrance of her job, the newspaper print, the Laintan Weekly. She opens the door, and the bell rings, as soon as we ear the bell ring, Salomie has already begun her hour long apology, to her Boss, at the desk.
Salomie (To her Boss): I'm so sorry! I really didn't intend to be this late, honestly. I just, I just missed the bus, and really it won't ever, ever, ever happen again. Honestly, I value my job so much! I really do care about it, immensely. I love it more than chocolate; it means so much, so I hope you don't -
Her Boss, seems completely unaffected and totally not mad. He actually just smiles kindly at her. In the midst of her pathetic, almost funny ramble, he glances over at the window to the street and his face goes dead with absolute horror. She stops her ramble and looks at the direction he is staring with pure fear at. Outside, on Gilford Lane, hundreds upon hundreds of Tarantulas and poisonous spiders pour onto the street. They are pouring from above the drainage pits in the street, and our now all over the side walks and crawling up the shop's windows. Maybe, even thousands! Salomie lets out a scream as she sees a huge 50 ft Tarantula come into frame from the window of the Laintan Weekly. It's getting to the point where they cannot even see outside, there is that many. Salomie lets out a scream:
Salomie (Terrified): Aghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!
Boss: What the freaking hell is this?
Salomie looks so frightened she might fall over dead.
Salomie: Oh my God, oh my God, oh my God, oh my God!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
We see the window of the window filled with Tarantulas and other deadly spiders. There is no hope! Her boss is trying to calm her down.
Boss: Salomie, it's ok. Were' fine, ok?
Salomie doesn't hear him and falls to the floor in hysterics, sobbing. As she lifts her head up, she sees that the window isn't going to hold all of the spiders; it is going to crack very soon! She lets out one last bloodcurdling scream.
Salomie: Oh my God!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
