EXTREME CLOSE ON A CELL PHONE
resting face up on a black surface. A beat of silence -- is
broken by its abrupt RING... RING... RING... Move in tighter
on the phone's LCD DISPLAY. A number comes up: 555-3827
RING... RING... RING... A hand enters frame. We follow it to
a pad and pen we now discover to the left of the phone. The
hand picks up the pen, brings it to the pad, on which we find
a list of handwritten numbers. At least fifty. To this series
is now added 555-3827. RING... RING... RING...FADE TO BLACK.
FADE IN:
EXT. MANHATTAN - LATE NIGHT
