Explanation: This sequence is more dramatic. You have to feel that there's a lot of tension. Lillian is a police officer who surprises two dangerous men with a hostage. The actors have to be very dramatic. Lillian is between 25 and 28 years old. She's mature. She speaks clearly, has to be a bit aggressive when she has to.

In this short story, Lillian is a police officer and she surprises two thieves.

The guard of a villa is sitting on a couch, he's obviously scared. A man in a balaclava is standing a bit back, with a gиn, threatening the guard. Another man in a balaclava searches the room, he turns around, angry, and approaches the guard.

1ER MAN

where's the safe ?

THE GUARD

I don't know, I've only been working here a week.

The man in with a balaclava slaps him.

1ER MAN

You're kidding me, you're housesitting and you don't know where he safe is.

The man with a balaclava grabs the guard and he puts him on the floor and he kicks him in the ribs.

In a corridor, Lillian appears with the mobile in her ear. She's talking to someone from the police.

The man with a balaclava pulls out a кnife.

1ER MAN

All right, we'll change the method.

The guard is scared.

THE GUARD

No, no, please.

Lillian approaches with a pistol in her hand, she stops in front of the entrance to the living room, the door is open, we see the man with a balaclava who has put his knife under the throat of the guard, the other man with a hood turns his back, with the pistol. The man in the balaclava puts his knife under the ear of the guard.

1ER MAN

I'm going to cut off one ear first and then the other ear.

The guard is terrified. Lillian appears at the entrance and points her gиn at the two thieves.

LILLIAN

NYPD, drop your weapons!

The second man turns around and points his gиn at Lillian, he shoots and Lillian shoots back twice, the second man falls to the floor. The first man hides behind the guard and puts the knife to his throat.

1ER MAN

Drop the gиn or I'll finish him!

Lillian points her gиn at the first man.

LILLIAN

The swat's coming, you haven't got a chance.

1ER MAN

(Threatening)

I said drop the gиn!

He presses the blade of the knife against the guard's throat.

LILLIAN

Okay, stay calm.

1ER MAN

Move away.

Lillian moves away and the first man with the guard leaves the room and the door closes. Lillian picks up her gиn and she wants to open the door but it's locked, she turns to the second man who's lying on the floor, he's hurt, his hand wants to take his gиn but Lillian comes closer and she steps on his fingers and then she takes the gиn from him and kicks him in the ribs.

LILLIAN

Tell me the name of your accomplice.

2E MAN

Lillian gives him a heel kick in the stomach, the man folds in half then she puts her foot on the man's face and she presses.

LILLIAN

the man's face tightens in pain, he screams.

2E MAN

LILLIAN
