               EXT. TWO-LANE HIGHWAY - SUNRISE



A dishevelled WOMAN in a business suit (27) runs down a lonely

highway in Texas hill country, moving desperately through

the thick morning fog. She's carrying a VHS cassette. The

sounds of her breathing and SHOES HITTING the PAVEMENT ECHO

into the mist.
She runs, and runs.
She slows, out-of-strength, looks up and down the highway.
Both in front and behind, it leads straight into the mist, a

tunnel of fog. She stumbles on, a final effort.
She runs. Sees something. Stops cold.
