Script: Opening Sequence

Midday, overcast could rain any second but hasn't yet. Alley way between shops on a English high street, midweek so not packed full of shoppers, enough to create attention. 

Two men, one a rookie [J] a young man, who has never been done robbery before constantly checking he has all equipment speaking very fast through the nerves, has a blank face almost like he dose not know where is. Today is his first bank job. The other [M] slightly older has more experience,waiting lent back against a wall, watching J as if he was an amateur. Speaks slow and wise and thinks before he speaks. Both men waiting for the clearance to enter the bank around the side. 

Both put masks on, J has a small superhero mask whilst [M} has a balaclava. The scene starts in Black with M saying the first line. Letters used as names to hide identity. 

[Scene starts with a black screen.]

M: Masks on.

J: You Sure.

M: Now.

[Scene opens with a close up, with both men wearing masks. M looks at J unimpressed by J mask choice.]  

J: So.... You've done this a lot...right?

M: Yes, but its your day rookie, show me what your worth. 

J: Just remember its my first time. 

M: [Holds ear, like an ear piece is inside]......understood.... move out.

[ J goes out of shot first, camera stays on M who waits, scream heard as M rushes out notices Bank is fine to turn around to see J in the wrong building (light shop), M rushes in to J]

Two people taken as hostages, lie on the ground, nervous as across the room lays a body]

M: What have you done? 

J: I don't know, I was confused.

M: Confused over the difference between a bank and a light shop. 

J: I'm sorry Matt.

M: Don't say my name you twit, i'll get sent down.

J: ergh...don't they'res loads of Matt's in the world, at least they don't know your surnames Bender.[Hostages laugh] 

M: You idiot you've just given my identity away...and...and what    the hell is that all about. [Looks are body]

J: Sorry Matt, he was gonna call the police. 

M: The gun was to be used only as a deterrent.

J: What about the police? And A guns for are made to shoot.

M: God sake.. The Police, they would eventually come anyway, you had a gun, didn't you threaten him by pointing the gun at them to make him stop. 

J: No

M: Why?!?!

J: He was gonna call the police.

M: ergh..... we might still have time to get to the bank. 

[Camera looks at M through a window, Blue light flashes at his face, represents a siren.]

M: oh shi......
