Opening scene.
We begin with a mid shot of a shower curtain. Jenny is whistling peacefully. She gets out the shower and gets changed. She has 15 minutes to spare so she makes a cup of coffee and turns on the tv. She gets the shock of her life when she hears about the escape of her mentally ill brother Edward. She turns the tv off and the lights flick on and off. She hears a knock at the door and walks anxiously towards the door to check. Edward sneaks in through the door when Jenny walks towards the main road and he runs upstairs. Jenny returns inside and locks the front door and hears a noise from upstairs. Suddenly Edward grabs Jenny from behind and puts a chloroformed cloth over her face and drags her through the hall and out the door.
