walk leads to a swimming pool filled with
brackish water and lily pads. A wrought-iron fence encircles the grounds. on the other side,
the street seems like another world.
BACK TO CARLOTTA AND DIEDRE ON THE PORCH CARLOTTA takes a syringe from a bag and injects
DIEDRE, who shows no reaction. CARLOTTA feels her pulse...

We numb the body and the mind...but we havent found

a tight line, Rafe and
Danny are playing, one of them gunning his engine to go high,
the other diving and coming back up in his place,
leapfrogging.
It scares the other guys, having their planes flashing in and
out, so close. The TRAINING CAPTAIN, watching through
binoculars on the ground, talks into his RADIO --

McCawley! Walker! Cut that out!
RAFE
I thought this was a traini

The Hooded Man walks out. The TWO HORSEMEN ride up. The

Bath Lady [poking out of her building]: Fa Li, is your daughter here yet?
The matchmaker is not a patient woman. [She goes back into the building]
Fa Li: Of all days to be late. I should have prayed to the ancestors for
luck.
Grandma Fa [walking in with a Cri-Kee in a cage]: How lucky can they be,

WALKING DEAD. In every shape, size and colour
they wander, without purpose, up and down the avenues, in and
out of buildings. The city is theirs, they have inherited the
place. Man, in his human form, seems to be gone.
As the CREDITS END, we CUT TO:
6 EXT. A MAIN STREET - DAY
We are looking down from a HIGH ANGLE. The corner of A TALL
BUILDING is in the FOREGROUND. A CORPSE is dangling from A
NOO
ground, drawing in
the dirt with a stick. He does not notice as his Father walks
up and stands behind him.
FATHER
What are you doing?
The Boy is startled. He stands up quickly. In the DIRT we see
he has drawn a CHESSBOARD.
BOY
Nothing.
The Father SLAPS him across the face.
FATHER
Dont lie to me! What did the doctors
tell you about playing chess! Get in
the house!
The Father drags his foot across
walks towards the car and fires shot
after shot at it until it disappears.
INT. VINYARD HOUSEHOLD - DARKNESS
Davina and Doris Vinyard yell in the background like they
were in Vietnam. They meet in the hallway, still not
able to place the direction of the gunfire.
DAVINA

DORIS
STAY DOWN, HONEY! DANNY?!
They stay down on the carpet together.
EXT. BEDROOM - DANNYS POV
From the rain-soaked wi
grounds. There is a steel grating across the opening. The
bars disappear down into the thin ice of early winter.
With the house visible BG, we CRANE DOWN below the parapet wall
along which a guard is a white exposure-suit is walking... down
along the dark wall to the grating... TILTING DOWN to see a
glow pulsing under the ice.

EXT. SECOND FUNERAL STREET - DUSK
Galvin walking down a residential street. He has been walking
a while in the cold, snowy night. He stops for a stoplight at
a corner, waits for the light although there is no traffic.
Lights a cigarette. The light changes. He looks both ways
and irresolutely starts across the street. He stops. H

towards the tree house. Jacob stays behind, eyeing their
safety.
RUDY (CONTD) (cont??d)
Jacob, come on. It??s cool.
Suddenly, a ROCK comes careening from off screen. It hits
Jacob in the head and knocks him to the ground.
Rudy darts for the oak tree as a hail storm of rock and
debris come flying at him.
As Jacob rises, a stream of blood pours down the front of his
mask. He quickly runs fo
