2. INT. RESTAURANT - DAYTIME
Chief inspector Charles Milagros enters a restaurant to meet
his work partner Rodney Smith. Charles had been informed by
Rodney of a new lead for their investigation on a serial
killer.
CHARLES
Morning my friend. How goes your
end of the investigation?.
Charles pulls a chair to the table and sits down.
RODNEY
I’ve just struck a new lead, the
chaps from the station just
informed me of a murder which fits
our guy’s MO.
CHARLES
Smashing news. I’ll have quick
coffee and then we’re going to have
a look at the scene.
Charles calls a waiter to the table.
WAITER
Good morning sir, may I take an
order?
CHARLES
As a matter of fact, yes you can. I
would like a latte please with one
of your finest breakfast omelettes.
WAITER
Most certainly sir, what kind of
omelette would you like?
CHARLES
I think I shall have a cheese and
ham omelette please.
WAITER
Of course sir.
RODNEY
(Mildly annoyed)
What the hell happened to having a
quick coffee?
(CONTINUED)

CHARLES
I didn’t have any breakfast this
morning, I swear.
RODNEY
Typical.
A few minutes later the waiter arrives with the coffee and
omelette.
WAITER
Your omelette and latte sir.
CHARLES
Ah, thank you my good man.
Charles begins to eat his omelette. Rodney stares at him in
silence.
CHARLES
This is a smashing omelette. It has
the perfect combination in flavor.
Charles continues to describe his omelette. Rodney suddenly
cuts in.
RODNEY
Will you be silent please and eat
your bloody omelette.
CHARLES
Alright, alright. Calm down.
RODNEY
(Calmly)
I am calm, I just want you to hurry
up so that we can sally forth to
the crime scene.
Charles angrily yells out.
CHARLES
Jesus Christ lets go now then!
RODNEY
(Pleased)
Thank you.
Charles leaves money on the table for his coffee and
omelette and proceeds outside with Rodney.

INT. CRIME SCENE - DAYTIME
As Charles and Rodney enter the crime scene a young police
officer approaches them.
CHARLES
Morning officer.
MARTIN
Morning inspector.
RODNEY
What’s the situation here?
MARTIN
We’ve got a Caucasian male.
Approximately twenty five years of
age. The death was caused by
multiple stab wounds to the
abdominal region, which caused a
slow death.
RODNEY
Interesting... very interesting.
CHARLES
It doesn’t seem to match our guy’s
MO.
MARTIN
Ah yes. The strange symbols on the
wall are around here.
Martin proceeds round a small corner to a wall which is
covered in mystic symbols.
CHARLES
At least we know where those little
buggers are.
RODNEY
Indeed. Right I think we have all
we can get at the moment.
CHARLES
Alright then. Lets be off.
Charles and Rodney leave the crime scene and make their way
to the station.
