CHAPTER 3: AN UNCIVILIZED WORLD

INT. OFFICE AREA

Andy, a bald scientist with hair on the sides with glasses is giving 7 scientists a tour of the lab. They are near a doorwhich requires retinal access.

ANDY: Now that all of you have retinal scanner access, you will be able to operate all of these. There are many more throughout the facility.

Gordon enters the area and they all turn around. He is standing there with his shotgun pointed at them. They are all scared.

GORDON: Listen up will do exactly what I say or you will be killed.

ANDY: Are you insane? These men are new here-

GORDON: Shut your damn mouth. Are you going to treat them like shit like you did with me?

Andy stared at him with anger.

FLASHBACK

INT. ROOM

Andy is sitting in a room working at a computer.

ANDY: Where the hell is Gordon with my lunch?

Gordon enters the room carrying two brown paper bags. He sets them next to Andy. He looks at them and then at Gordon.

ANDY: What's this?

GORDON: Your lunch…sir.

ANDY: Oh my lunch. I'm just wondering why it's inside of a paper bag and not on a silver platter like I deserve.

GORDON: Sorry, I-

ANDY: You think I'm actually going to eat out of a bag? You need to get it together young man. I'm an authority figure around here. (yelling) Get it on a platter!

END FLASHBACK

GORDON: Hello Andy. It doesn't appear you have much authority over me now.

ANDY: You won't get away with this.

GORDON: Maybe I'll serve you head on a silver platter and make these jack offs eat it.

ANDY: You are sick as hell.

GORDON:You are much worse. Now everyone, get moving. Get me through the retinal scanner.

ANDY: Don't you have access to it?

Gordon strikes him in the knee with the shotgun and he goes down in pain. He then strikes Andy in the face with the butt of the shotgun. He turns to a scientist.

GORDON: Get me through asshole.

The scientist uses the retinal scanner and the door opens.

GORDON: Move it.

Everyone heads through. Andy limps along the way. Then, Gordon shoots the scientist who opened the door with the .357 and everyone screams. One scientist kneels down beside him.

GORDON: Get going.

SCIENTIST 1 : W e can't just leave him here.

Gordon shoots him and everyone screams.

GORDON: See what happens when you don' t listen.

They come across another retinal scanner. Gordon looks at a scientist.

GORDON: You, open it.

The scientist opens the door but Gordon shoots him in the head. Everyone screams.

ANDY: So this is how it is. We do what you say but get shot anyway. Well then, there' s no point in doing what you say then is there? You are clearly an uncivilized human being.

Gordon hits him in the face with the shotgun and Andy goes down bleeding from the nose.

SCIENTIST 2 : Please stop this.

Gordon points the gun at his neck and the scientist shivers.

GORDON: How about you shut the fuck up. (To Andy) You are the uncivilized human being. You think you deserve everything, but you don't. You're not so tough now are you?Now I want you to take off your shoes and socks.

Andy does what he is told.

GORDON: Now I want all of you to beat him senseless.

SCIENTIST 2 : Wecan't. We don' t believe in violence. It' s a code among the scientists. Of course you wouldn' t know that.

GORDON: You're gonna do it or you will die.

The scientists reluctantly start to punch and kick Andy.

ANDY: N o! You' re supposed to be on my side.

SCIENTIST 3 : H e' s making us.

GORDON: (laughs) Now pick him up. I want one of you to hold him while the rest of you beat his ass.

The scientists do what they are told andGordon laughs.

GORDON: Now let him go.

ANDY: How could you assholes do something like that? What kind of people are you? Uncivilized people in an uncivilized world.

GORDON: (laughs) Now tie him up with his own coat, like a straightjacket.

The scientists tie him up.

GORDON:Pull his pants down.

The scientists comply.

Gordon walks up to Andy.

GORDON: If you talk, scream, trip, or try to escape, I' ll kill you. Now let' s go.

Gordon messes up Andy' s hair and then slaps him on the back of the scientists move with Gordon behind them. Andy is having trouble walking. He tries to remove the pants around his ankles. Gordon pokes him with the shotgun.

GORDON: Don' t bother.

They reach a retinal scanner.

GORDON: Somebody better open it.

SIMON:You kill us even if we do.

GORDON: What's your name? (looks at name tag)Simon. Open the door.

SIMON: No.

Gordon grabs Simon by the hair and throws him through the glass window. The rest of the scientists scream in horror.

SCIENTIST 3 : Security will put an end to this.

GORDON: You and the security guards never got along. Besides they laid off most of the guards. So, who you gonna call? Now get you r asses moving.

The scientists walk across the shattered glass while looking at the downed scientist. Andy stops before stepping on the glass.

GORDON: What' s the matter huh? It looks like you came across something you can' t do. Well you' re gonna walk over the glass whether you like it or not.

Andy slowly walks across the glass, trying not to scream. Gordon laughs. Andy stares at Gordon with a crazy-eyed look. Gordon steps on his foot. He tries to scream as a tear runs down his face. The other scientists look on, feeling his pain.

GORDON: Let' s go.

The scientists walk in front as Gordon follows. They are in front of a big stairway. Andy stares aheadwith a crazy-eyed look. He is able to remove the coat around him and quickly pulls his pants up. As Gordon walks by the stairs, he runs at him and knocks Gordon down the stairs. Gordon tumbles down the stairs and the scientists run. Andy runs as fast as he can down the hallway. Gordon runs up the stairs and searches for the scientists. He sees one of them and shoots him in the back with the shotgun.

INT. HALLWAY

Andyruns behinda door and locks it. A scientist tries to open the door.

SCIENTIST 4 : Andy, please open it, please. I' m begging you.

ANDY: After what you and those hooligans did to me, I don' t think so. Don' t expect me to do something for you.

SCIENTIST 4 : He made us do it. Don' t you understand?

ANDY: Screw you. I deserve better than this.

Andy runs up the stairs. The scientist bangs on the door. Suddenly Gordon slams the scientist against the door.

GORDON: Tell me where that son of a bitch went and I won ' t kill you.

SCIENTIST 4 : Through there.

Gordon uses the shotgun to blast open the door. He then shoots the scientist. He goes up the stairs, following the bloody footprints. He reaches the top and sees that the bloody footprints lead to a pile of boxes. Gordon begins kicking the box until it breaks. He sees Andy inside and pulls him out. Gordon begins to kick him in the ribs. Then, he picks him up and punches Andy in the face, knocking him back down. Gordon begins to beat him with the crowbar. He drags Andy over to the electrical box.

ANDY: Please, I' m sorry for the way I treated you.

He puts Andy' s hand in the box. The voltage goes through Andy as he screams. Gordon turns off the power. Andy shakes and falls to the ground and crawls along the floor. His clothes are blackened and his hair is standing up. Gordon grabs a chain ,ties it around Andy' s neck , and drags him over to a handrail. He ties the other end to the rail. He picks up Andy who is still shaking. Gordon tosses him over and a few seconds later, the chain stops. Andy dies instantly. Gordon smiles as he watches him swing around.
