FADE IN:



INT.  WINDOW - MORNING



We are looking out a second story window of a house.  The

backyard is large and green with a wooden jungle gym, worn

from use.  A single tree throws shade onto a barbecue and a

picnic table.
The backyard is lined by crops.  Corn.  Golden and brown.

Six feet high.
Everything is perfect.  Like a postcard.  And then we HEAR A

CHILD SCREAM.  IT'S FAR AWAY.  WE DON'T KNOW WHERE IT'S

COMING FROM.



                                                  CUT TO:



INT.  BEDROOM - MORNING



GRAHAM HESS wakes up from his sleep.  He thought he heard

something.  He listens.  HE HEARS THE HEATER.  THE

REFRIGERATOR DOWNSTAIRS HUMMING.  THE OCCASIONAL BIRDS

OUTSIDE CHIRPING.
