　　audience. She hears something else - a faint scraping sound
　　- and looks up.
　　
　　HOST
　　Okay， here goes nothing.
　　
　　The scraping sound persists. Jean sets down her coffee cup
　　and rises.
　　
　　From the studio audience:
　　
　　AUDIENCE
　　Awoooo!
　　
　　KITCHEN
　　
　　We track toward the back door. A curtain is stretched tight
　　across its window.
　　
　　Jean pulls the curtain back. Bright sunlight amplified by
　　snow floods in.
　　
　　A man in an orange ski mask looks up from the lock.
　　
　　Jean gasps， drops the curtain， rutns and runs into -
　　
　　- a taller man， also in a ski mask， already in the house.
　　
　　We hear the crack of the back-door window being smashed.
　　
　　The tall man - Gaear Grimsrud - grabs Jean’’s wrist.
　　
　　She screams， staring at her own imprisoned wrist， then wraps
　　her gaping mouth around Grimsrud’’s gloved thumb and bites
　　down hard.
　　
　　He drops her wrist. As Carl enters， she races up the
　　stairs.
　　
　　GRIMSRUD
　　Unguent.
　　
　　CARL
　　Huh？
　　
　　Grimsurd looks at his thumb.
　　
　　GRIMSRUD
　　I need …… unguent.
　　
　　UPSTAIRS BEDROOM
　　
　　As the two men enter， a door at the far side is slamming
　　shut. A cord snakes in under the door.
　　
　　MASTER BATHROOM
　　
　　Jean， sobbing， frantically pushes at buttons on the princess
　　phone.
　　
　　The phone pops out of her hands， jangles across the tile
　　floor， smashes against the door and then bounces away， its
　　cord ripped free.
　　
　　With a groaning sound， the door shifts in its frame.
　　
　　BEDROOM
　　
　　Grimsrud has a crowbar jammed in between the bathroom door
　　and frame， and is working it.
　　
　　BATHROOM
　　
　　Jean crosses to a high window above the toilet and throws it
　　open. Snow that had drifted against the window sifts
　　lightly in. Jean steps up onto the toilet.
　　
　　The door creaks， moving as one piece in its frame.
　　
　　Jean glances back as she steps up from the toilet seat to
　　the tank.
　　
　　The groaning of the door ends with the wood around its knob
　　splintering and the knob itself falling out onto the floor.
　　
　　The door swings open.
　　
　　Grimsrud and Carl enter.
　　
　　THEIR POV
　　
　　Room empty， window open.
　　
　　Carl strides to the window and hoists himself out.
　　
　　Grimsrud opens the medicine cabinet and delicately taps
　　aside various bottles and tubes， seeking the proper unguent.
　　
　　He finds a salve but after a moment sets it down， noticing
　　something in the mirror.
　　
　　The shower curtain is drawn around the tub.
　　
　　He steps toward it.
　　
　　As he reaches for the curtain， it explodes outward， animated
　　by thrashing limbs.
　　
　　Jean， screaming， tangled in the curtain， rips it off its
　　rings and stumbles out into the bedroom. Grimsrud follows.
　　
　　BEDROOM
　　
　　Jean rushes toward the door， cloaked by the shower curtain
　　but awkwardly trying to push it off.
　　
　　UPSTAIRS LANDING
　　
　　Still thrashing， Jean crashes against the upstairs railing，
　　trips on the curtain and falls， thumping crazily down the
　　stairs.
　　
　　Grimsrud trots down after her.
　　
　　A PLAQUE: WADE GUSTAFSON INCORPORTATED
　　
　　INT. WADE’’S OFFICE
　　
　　Wade sits behind his desk; another man rises as Jerry
　　enters.
　　
　　JERRY
　　How ya doin’’ there， Stan？ How
　　are ya， Wade？
　　
　　Stan Grossman shakes his hand.
　　
　　STAN
　　Good to see ya again， Jerry. If
　　these numbers are right， this
　　looks pretty sweet.
　　
　　JERRY
　　Oh， those numbers are all right，
　　bleemee.
　　
　　WADE
　　This is do-able.
