THE MORNING AFTER1087Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT21gISdfpp

A pharmacy, early morning. Its windows are completely shattered, surroundings ruined. Lights on a bleary college STUDENT blinking himself awake. He is only half-dressed, remaining clothes comically torn, and is surrounded by toppled medicine bottles, broken glass, and gossip mags. An empty beer bottle is clenched in his fist.

A weathered POLICEMAN enters and strides towards the STUDENT without a word.

After a moment, the STUDENT reluctantly sticks out both hands and is handcuffed. This should be slow but thorough and deliberate; the only sound is the clinking of locks and chains. The POLICEMAN helps him up and starts leading him out. The STUDENT tries again.
