A girl is lying on the grass.
She wears a skirt, a shirt.

No movements save the trees being shaken by the wind.
The only sound is that. The wind.
Fade to black.

A man is in a room.
The room has a single lamp on.
The room has a couch, a table, the lamp and

His face is contorted.
He holds a knife.
The knife is clean.
