Camera cuts to the Father. He is slumps down into his arm chair to watch the tv still very heavily drunk
Arms hand down over the arm rest.
Camera cuts to a inter title.
Your all waaaays under my DAM! Feeeeeet.

Camera pans to the right of the father as he scoffs the chips he staggered home with into his face, dropping more chips and ketchup on himself than are going into his mouth; to see that the kid is sat in the corner of the room trying to make himself as small as possible, head in hands.
The camera pans back to the centre, to see that the father has fallen asleep; his arms limp at his side and the bag of chip sprayed across the floor.

The camera then pans this time, to the left to see the boy's head peaking out from behind the arm chair and staring straight at the chips on the floor with a hungry look in his eyes.

The kid slowly moves towards the camera on hand and knees to kneel in front of the chips and slowing starts to eat them. He cries as he is eating the chips. As the kid is eating the chips he carelessly knocks over his father's beer which in place then to his leg the beer seeps through his sock onto his food and he instantly wakes up angry and pissed off.


Scene 24,25,26

Camera cuts to the father jumping out of his seat, turning to face the kid and backhand him straight across the face. The kid's head is knocked to the left of the screen, as stuffing flies from his mouth.

Cuts to an inter title
“Your such a waste of space you little shit!!”

Camera cuts to the father holding the kid by the legs and dragging him across the floor with stuffing falling from out of his mouth. He also has a torn arm.
As the kid gets pulled close to the living room door his arm slowly un-stitches and falls off. As he passes the phone on the table in the living room he looks up at it and tries with all his might to call someone for help, but instead just ends up dragging the phone off the table and unplugs it from the wall.
The kid losses grip of the phone and lets go of it as he is pulled of screen though the living room door out of the cameras view point.

Scene 30,31,32,33

The camera is now placed in the hallway and the boy has gotten to his feet. As the father grabs him by the scruff of the neck, the camera goes into a first person view as if your looking through the fathers eyes. As he is about to punch the kid straight in the face, time slows down as the kid slow strains to look over his father right shoulder.




Scene 34,35

The camera is now fixed on to the front door as it swings open and a burst of light erupts into the room and fills the space.
The camera quickly cuts back to the father holding the kid and he lets go to see where this over- powering light is coming from.


Scene 36

Camera cuts back to the front door where two lanky tall shadowy beings emerge from the door, one open arms and pointing to that point of the bright light outside the house.
The screen fades to bright blinding white.

Scene 35,36,37

Is a close up of a cartoon robber, been held just as the father was holding the kid in scene 31. The camera pans out slowly to show more of the cartoon on the TV screen to show a super hero has beaten up and apprehended the robber.

The camera swatches prospective and is now set behind the TV as is zoom out to reveals the kid sitting in the middle of a sofa with a dad and a mother ever side of him as the camera zooms out further, he slowly turns from a unhappy kid to a happy kid and grabs both his new parents arms and holds tightly as the parents also hold him tightly.


Scene 38

As the kid sits with his new family a quiet but slowly getting louder noise is heard and the screen starts to turn black from the outside inwards. Then a beeping starts up in the background that gets loader and loader as it get to its loudest point the whole scene will have turned black.
Now the black slowly turns into a heart beat monitor to coincide with the beeping.
The line slowly gets smaller and less bumps each second until a flat line noise is ringing as the heart monitor flat lines. After the credits have started to roll you will hear in the background the sound of an emergency room, as the doctor’s panic to resuscitate the kid.
