- Not definitive.
We are analysing skin samples
taken from underneath
the fingernails of the victims.
Results will help to determine
the killers race.
Is it true the police arent
interested in finding the killers
because the victims
were prostitutes?
The suggestion that were not
treating this case diligently
is not only false but offensive.
Weve already spent
man-hours on this case...

As you can see,

The male, once captured,
is democratically assigned
to the healthy and thrifty love
appetite of the community.
With maybe the only difference
that here, its not a custom
to tear up his shirt.
And the male?
RACE (35), the largest of them all,
crosses to the table, sits and starts eating.
JUMP CUTS show the progression of their meal. From globs of
syrup being placed over pancakes to the mass consumption of
omelets and sausage. Caught up with eating, nobody speaks.

Bad sportsmanship. A ruthless minority of people seems to have forgotten certain good old fashioned virtues. They just cant stand seeing the other fellow win. If these people would just play the game, instead of standing on the touch line heckling -

TRACKING along a row of tombstones, we follow Tommy and his
flashlight as he searches. Hawes follows, carrying the gas

"Its coming," he said.
He was restless and talkative.
He said the signs were everywhere.
In the high prices, the bad tempers...
... the gut worry, and the stupidity
and greed of people.
Bloody crimes were being committed
in the cities...
... and the criminals were unpunished.
It wasnt going to be

DOWN THE BEACH,
Mrs. Bowman stops dead in her tracks when she rounds the bend
in the beach. We dont see what she sees, but we hear the

horrified, slack-jawed SCREAM, her mouth a perfect oval.

VOICE
More of a game really.
BEN
What kind of a game?
VOICE
You seem to be familiar with the STAB movies.
Heres how we play. I ask you a question.
You get it right, your girlfrie
