INT. CABIN- NIGHT
EMMA walks towards her parents bedroom, holding a knife in her left hand.
As she walks closer Emma starts singing a song.

EMMA:

Fly little bird

Fly up in the sky

You don't need to be afraid anymore

Mama got you safe and sound

Emma opens the door to her parents room, she switches on the light.
MARY (EMMA'S MOTHER)
Emma is that you?
ROY (EMMA'S FATHER)
Emma it's to early to wake up, go back to sleep

EMMA:
But I don't want to sleep

ROY:
(shouts)
Well I don't want to deal with you so go back to sleep now

EMMA:
Mommy can you play with me?

MARY:
Maybe later, I don't have time for you now, you're a nuisance

EMMA:
But I want to play now. I don't want to wait until later. Why can't we play
now?

ROY:
(angry)
(Gets up and yell at Emma)
Emma that's enough, it's not time to play and you're a big girl now twelve
years old, you shouldn't be playing at this age. What's wrong with you?

Page 2/46
EMMA:
(angry)
That's all of you and mom. You never care about how I feel. I hate you two.
Emma lifts up the knife and stabs her father.

MARY:
Roy, no!
Mary got up and grabbed the knife from Emma.

MARY:
What's wrong with you? You stupid child.

EMMA:
What's wrong with me?
What's wrong with you?
You two never care how I feel! Ever!
Mary walked out of the room. She rushed to the cellphone to call the
ambulance. But Emma went to the kitchen, grabbed another knife and walked
slowly to her mother.

EMMA:
Oh, mother you better run
Mary was shaking with fear as her daughter got closer to her.

MARY:
(scared)
No, Emma, No!
I'll give you…all the attention you want. Please, just… just spare me.

EMMA:
( nods her head slowly, no)
It's too late for apologies. Time to die.
Police woman picks up the phone.

POLICE WOMAN:
911, what's your emergency?

MARY:
(panic)
Help me, my daughter is trying to…
Before Mary could finish Emma got closer to her then stabbed her.
MARY (CONT'D)
Ah!

Page 3/46
POLICE WOMAN :
Hello, what's your emergency?
Emma changed her tone from anger to worried and put on a sad face.

EMMA:
(sobbing)
Help, my mom and dad are dead?

POLICE WOMAN :
Hold on, are you sure they're dead?

EMMA :
Yea, I check their pulse and they aren't breathing, and a knife is in my
mom. Please hurry. I'm scared.

POLICE WOMAN :
Ok, the police are on their way.
While the police were on their way. Emma dragged her mother back to the
room. She washed off the knife and held it with a thick tablecloth then
pushed it down in her mother's body. Afterwards, she opens a door and uses
her father's shoe to make footprints coming in and leaving. When she was
finished with all that Emma stayed in her closet until the cops arrived.
I/E.CABIN-LATER
The police arrived and Emma made up a bunch of lies about how her parents
got killed.

EMMA :
(straight face)
(shivering)
I was sleeping in my room, then suddenly I heard my mother scream. I got up
and looked through the crack in my door. I saw a man walking towards my
door. I ran inside my closet and locked the door. After he was done
searching up and down in my room he left. Afterwards I called the police.

POLICE MAN:
Ok, did you see the man's face? Can you describe him?

EMMA:
(nods her head, no)
His face is slowly coming back to me so you'll have to wait for a while
until I feel better again.

POLICE MAN :

Page 4/46
Ok, take some rest. I'll get back to you.

EMMA:
(nods her head, yes)
Ok
The policeman, named KEN, (30's) walks up to a police woman, named MADDY
(20's).

KEN:
(worried/tired)
She's…a little shaken up by the situation, so…limit the questions for now.

MADDY:
A little, the girl isn't even shedding a single tear and her eyes don't
look like she was crying before.

KEN:
Don't know about that but…we need to focus on getting her a home and as
much information out of her as soon as possible. We need to find the killer
no matter what.
Maddy looks over at Emma. Emma staring Maddy dead in the eyes. Maddy turned
away scared.

MADDY:
She look like a little devil

KEN:
Whatever you say…all I want right now is to make sure that girl is safe
with someone she knows and will take good care of her.
KEN (CONT'D)
So, let's wrap up. We'll continue the investigation tomorrow. Let's go.
Everyone started packing up. Emma staring at all of them in hatred. Maddy
calls Emma over to get in the car. Couple minutes later they all left.
INT. POLICE OFFICE- MORNING

KEN:
Did you find any of the girl's nearby relatives?

MADDY:
Unfortunately, no, I have searched everywhere, but I still haven't found
anyone. I'm starting to wonder if she even has any relatives in the state.

KEN:
I'll just go and ask her if she has any relatives.

Page 5/46
Maddy stares at Ken as he walks out of the office.
INT. COMMUNITY CENTER- LATER
Emma was playing with a Barbie doll she found in the lost and found. After
a while of playing with it Emma threw it away. Then Ken walked in.

KEN:
Hey, kiddo, it isn’t nice to throw things.

EMMA :
Well, it wasn't very nice when that man killed my parents. Now was it?

KEN :
No, it wasn't, but I'm sure you have more family you can visit, right?

EMMA :
I have no family. It was just only my mom, dad and I.

KEN :
No one else

EMMA :
(nods her head, no)
No one else but the three of us.
Ken walked out disappointed. He then went back to the police station.
EXT.ON THE ROAD- EVENING
CARL AND AMY were driving a RED HONDA CITY 4 GEN into the city for vacation
with their children JOHN and ROSEMARY. They were all listening to the song
'WAITING FOR LOVE' BY Avicii. They drove for long hours until they finally
reached their new home for their vacation.
INT. NEW HOUSE/VILLA- NIGHT
Amy walked in the kitchen wearing her NIGHTY. There her husband, Carl was
working on his computer.

AMY:
(sighed)
Come on Carl, can't you go a day without working? The entire reason we
decided to come on this trip is because you are always overworking
yourself.

CARL:
I know, honey. Just give me a little bit more time then I'll be finished.
(Carl continues to type on his computer)

AMY:

Page 6/46
(roles eyes)
You always do this. You see this why we can never agree. You said…

CARL:
(shouts)
Amy, not now!

AMY:
(yells)
No Carl, it's now or never. Every single time you said that we're going on
a family trip. You are always working, and when you said you're just going
to finish up, you never stop and work the entire trip. It's…it's like you
haven't taken a break at all, and you don't see that you're overworking
yourself and you can die.

CARL:
(brush his hand over his head)
Amy, I get that you're worried for my safety and health but I'm fine.

AMY:
(tears up, she nods her head, yes as tears flows down her eyes)
That's exactly what CHRIS said, and look at him now. Dead…in his grave. He
left his wife with a huge burden. And I can see how you two are brothers
now.
Amy turned and walked to her children's room as she wiped her tears.

CARL:
Amy! Amy, come on!
Amy went in her kids room to put them to bed

AMY:
Come on kids, time for bed.
John and Rosemary climbed on the bed next to their mother. JOHN WAS ONLY
FOUR AND ROSEMARY WAS SIX.

ROSEMARY:
Mom, can you read us a bedtime story?

AMY:
Of course honey.
Amy grabbed a book next to her on the bookshelf.
Ok, let's begin. Once upon a time there lived a beautiful princess with
long red hair, red as a ripe apple. She had crystal, pale skin. Everyone in
the kingdom worships the princess like a goddess.

Page 7/46
Amy read on until the story was finished and the kids were fast asleep.
AMY (CONT'D)
And the princess and the prince lived happily ever after.
Amy smiled at her kids, she kiss their foreheads before turning off the
lights and leaving. Amy then returns to her room.

CARL:
You're finally back

AMY:
I didn't know that I owe you anything. If I knew any better, I would have
stayed in the kids room.

CARL:
Amy I get that you're mad at me, but I have to work or how will we survive.
If I wasn't working how would I be able to afford this place?

AMY:
Well sorry for not considering your feelings and your love to work. I'll
just stop being a caring wife then or I'm a nagging wife that you can't
wait to get rid of.

CARL:
Amy I didn't say that, I'm just trying to finish up something and you're
making a big deal out of it.

AMY:
Whatever, I'll just sleep in the guestroom since you have work to do
Amy walked out of the room and went to the guest room.
INT. POLICE STATION- MORNING
Officer Ken and Maddy is trying their best to track down any relatives for
Emma, but haven't found anything yet.

MADDY:
Sir, I don't think that Emma has any family in the state.

KEN:
She did tell me that it was just her and her parents alone.
(sighs)
I don't even know what to do now.

MADDY:
(nervous)
Well…it's probably not my place to say, but we have to put her in

Page 8/46
orphanage.

KEN:
We can't just leave her like that. I mean… her parents died and it must be
hard on her. I mean…
(sighs)
I'll think about it, just…keep an eye on her.
Ken walked out of the office, seconds later his phone rang.
KEN (CONT’D)
Hello, Ken here.
CARL (O.S.)
Hey, Ken buddy. Amy, the kids and I are in town, if you want to come over
and enjoy a nice day at the beach be my guest.

KEN:
(sighs)

CARL:
So…what do you say? You're in or out?

KEN:
Send me the address
EXT. BENCH- LATER
Ken meets up with Carl in a typical clothes. Only a BLUE JEANS PANTS AND A
WHITE MIDDLE BUTTON SHIRT While Carl was in his beach shorts and shirt.

CARL:
Hey, you made it

KEN:
I don't remember you being the party and outgoing type

CARL:
I'm not, but Amy is mad at me so I have to enjoy this vacation instead of
working all the time. Anyways, how are you doing?
Carl bought two beers. One for him and he gave the other one to Ken. They
then started walking towards a bench while Ken talks about Emma.

KEN:
There's this little girl. Her name is Emma, and her parents died a couple
days ago. I tried everything to get in contact with any relatives of hers,
but no matter how much I search I can't find anything.

CARL:

Page 9/46
So what did she said? Did she tell you anything on how to fine any of her
relatives?

KEN:
Emma said it was just her and parents.

CARL:
No one else?

KEN:
No one else, just the three of them. And if I don't fine someone who will
take care of her then she'll be put in orphanage or foster home. And…I…I
don't want that for a kid that just lost her parents by the hands of a
bloody murderer. I mean…
(sighs)
I mean…I don't know what to do.
Reach at the bench

CARL:
Tell you what, since you have been such a good friend to me and my family.
I'll do you back a favor and take in Emma until you find one of her
relatives.

KEN:
Really?

CARL:
Hey, I know you don't know how to take care of kids and my wife loves kids
so it's a win-win.

KEN:
(happy)
Wow…thanks man…thanks. You just save a ‘ life

CARL:
Anytime, just know whatever you want help with I'm here
Ken and Carl hit their beers together and sat down and drank their beers.
INT.BEACH HOUSE-EVENING
After Amy, Carl and the kids finished playing at the beach, they went to
the beach house to eat. While Ken went home.

Yeah, what is it?

CARL:
You remember Ken, right?

AMY:
Yea, so what?

CARL:
Well he has a situation where he needs our help.

AMY:
What do you mean?

CARL:
Well, a little girl lost her parents. Someone murdered them

AMY:
(shocked)
Oh my God!

CARL:
Yea, and Ken haven't find any of the girl’s relatives yet and he doesn't
want to put the girl in a orphanage or foster home, so I told him we'll
take care of the girl until he finds any of the girl’s relatives.

AMY:
Ok, and?

CARL:
I just want to know if that was ok with you.

AMY:
Sure, I mean the girl lost her parents to a murderer, so yea we can watch
her

CARL:
Ok, she's coming Monday, so that's enough time to get her room ready.
Carl and Amy prepared a room for Emma.

KEN:
Emma, no!
Ken ran and grab Emma.

EMMA:

KEN:
Emma, what's wrong?

EMMA:
(crying)

KEN:
Hey, don't say that. It's not your fault. Hey, I got good news. I found
someone that will take care of you and love you like your parents did.

EMMA:

It's just impossible

KEN:
Impossible, impossible.
(yells)
What do you mean impossible?

KEN:

MADDY:
(sighs)
Nothing

KEN:
Get Emma a Therapist

MADDY:
What?

KEN:

talk to, she'll go insane. So get her a Therapist.

MADDY:
(typing fast)
Yes sir, right away.
INT. VILLA- MORNING
Amy, Carl, John and Rosemary waited at the entrance for Ken and Emma's
arrival. A couple seconds later a black, Pontiac Aztek drove up. Then Ken
and Emma came out. Ken then went for Emma's red suitcase.

KEN:
Hey, Everybody. How's life?

AMY:
Good, I never thought that I'll be raising another kid but hey, isn't life
a funny thing
Everybody laughed except Emma.

ROSEMARY:
(hands hand out)
Hi, my name is Rosemary, what's yours?
Emma looked up at Ken. Ken nodded his head, yes. Emma looked back on
Rosemary.

Rosemary slowly draws back in her hands a little bit sad but still smiled.

hope you're cool as Rosemary. Rosemary smiles brightly.

EMMA:
(shake John's hand)
I assure you that I'm really fun.
Emma looked at Rosemary grinning then let go of John's hand. Rosemary
stopped smiling and looked scared for a moment.

CARL:
Well, let's get you settled in, little fun bug.
Carl took the suitcase from Ken and carried it to Emma's new room. Everyone
followed behind. When they reached Emma's room, her face turned into
disgust. The room was covered in pink and she despised the color pink.

AMY:
Doesn't it look…

EMMA:
Pink?
Ken looked at Emma shocked.

CARL:
What you don't like pink?

EMMA:
No, it's just…
(sighs) (smile)
I love it.

AMY:
(sighs)
Great, I hope you did because I spent hours decorating this.

EMMA:
It's wonderful, thanks.

AMY:

Page 15/46
You're welcome

ROSEMARY:
Don't worry, if you want to redesign it I can help.

EMMA:
What part of 'I like it' don't you understand?

ROSEMARY :
(stop smiling)
No, it's just that you looked unhappy at first, so

EMMA:
There's no need for redesigning anything, it's fine the way it is.
Especially when you're mother put in so much work for me, how could I ever
not like it.

AMY:
(smiles)
Thank you Emma, I wish some people was a grateful as you.

it and took out a knife. Emma dig a hole in the teddy bear's foot that she
was carrying around. She push the knock up in the hole and covered it with
the cottons. After doing so Emma took down the teddy bear, closed her
suitcase then joined the others in the kitchen. Meanwhile Ken and Carl were
having a conversation at Ken's car.

CARL:
So what do you want to talk about?

KEN:
It's about Emma.

CARL:
Yea, what about her?

KEN:
At the moment she's having a mental breakdown, so here's the card for her
therapist.
(hands the card to Carl)
Please ensure that she goes there at least once every week and please, love
her like your own. She needs as much love as possible to get over her

(takes the card)
You can count on us.

KEN:
Thanks, that's really good to here.

Page 17/46
EMMA:
Where's Officer Ken, did he left?

CARL:
Yeah, it's just you and us now. So…
(shout excitedly)
let's get cooking.
Everyone jumped in excitement except Emma. She just stood in one spot
staring blankly in space.
EMMA (V.O.)
I have to live with these people until the polices find a relative of mine.
Oh God, this going to be so much fun.
Emma lean her head to the left and put on a psychotic evil smile.
INT. VILLA HOME-MORNING
Two weeks has pass since Emma moved in with the Millers (Carl, Amy, John
and Rosemary). It took a while for her to open up to them but after a while
of getting to know them Emma opened up. Everything we great, Emma was going
to the therapist ever one day of the week and it look like she's getting
better. Or, so everyone has come to believe. Now, it was time Emm to come
out.

AMY:
Good morning, Emma. How was your sleep? Amazing as always?

EMMA:
Yes, I slept really nice as always
Carl rushed in the kitchen while talking to someone on the phone.

CARL:
I know, I know. I'll get to it as quickly as possible.
BOSS (O.S.)
You better hurry, your future position is at risk.
(Boss is forty-two years old, and a very serious and strict man)

CARL:
Yes, I know, sir, I'll hand it in by the end of the week.
Carl took the phone from his ears and hung up. He rest his hand on the
table and sigh.

AMY:
Who was that, honey?

CARL:
My boss

Page 18/46
AMY:
What did he say?

CARL:
He wants me to do a project for a big client, the bad thing is that it must
be finished this week. If not then I'm fired.
(sighs)

AMY:
Wow, that sounds serious, and there's only three days left till the
weekends. How are you going to pull Through?

CARL:
Don't know, a le all nighter…maybe…I have no choice at the matter, so guess
that's it.

AMY:
But Carl, that's not good for your health

CARL:
Well, living on the streets with rats crawling around isn't healthy for me,
you nor the kids.

AMY:
I guess…not

CARL:
I'll be in my room, please keep the kids out.
Carl kissed Amy's hand then walked off.

EMMA:
Amy
Amy turns around to Emma.

EMMA:
We can make some midnight snacks for Carl…if you like
Amy smile

AMY:
That's a great idea, let's get to it.
Amy and Emma spent the entire evening baking cookies for everyone. After
they were finished, Amy walked to Carl's room to give the cookies to him.

Page 19/46
AMY:
(knock)
Carl!
Carl, are you in there?
Carl!
Carl burst open the door down angrily.

CARL:
(yells angrily)
What, woman?
Amy was taken aback.

AMY:
Um…I just…wanted to…give you these…cookies…you know, to help you.

CARL:
(clam sigh)
Amy, Amy, Amy!
(furious)
You're a grown woman, you're supposed to be cooking good, healthy foods,
but no instead you're cooking this.
Carl took the plate of cookies.
CARL (CONT'D)
(furious)
What is this, cookie, what can cookies do…
(throw down the plate)
…to a grown ass man like me.
Amy started tearing up.

AMY:
I'm sorry…I just wanted to help

CARL:
(shouts)
Help with what Amy, what can that help with? Tell me! Huh?
Amy started crying.

CARL:
As I thought, nothing.
Carl walked back inside and closed the door really hard.
Amy ran to her room sodding. While Emma looked at her running away and
eating a cookie.
EMMA (V.O.)
So prophetic, I guess I have to take matters in my own hands. No one hurt

Page 20/46
my mommy. I wonder how long a sentence is for assaulting.
That night Emma planned her move to eliminate Carl. Her goal was to make
Amy her mommy, and no matter what she will reach it, no matter how much
people she has to get out of the way.

EMMA:
My one goal is to make Amy my mommy, and I'll stop at nothing to get that.
INT. VILLA- NIGHT
Emma went to the guestroom to see Amy.

EMMA:
Amy!
Amy wiped her tears as Emma walked in.

AMY:
Yes

EMMA:
I just wanted to see you before I went to bed. Are you okay?

AMY:
Yeah, I'm fine, sorry that Carl didn't like our cookies.
Emma sits on the bed.

EMMA:
It's ok.
A moment of silence.

AMY:
Emma, just know that I really appreciate you

EMMA:
I'm the one that's supposed to say that
The two chuckled

AMY:
(smile)
I guess you're right

EMMA:
Amy…

AMY:
Yeah

Page 21/46
EMMA:
Can I call you mom

AMY:
(smile)
Sure. After all, my kids are kinda like their father.
Go closer then hug.
EMMA (V.O.)
I promise that I won't make anyone hurt you…
(evil glare)
…even if I have to kill.
After a heartwarming moment with Amy, Emma checks if the kids were
sleeping. After making sure everyone was down, she grabbed two tiny camera
then went to Carl's room, who was still working.
Emma knocked on the door.

EMMA:
Mr. Carl, can you come out here, I need to talk to you.
Carl angrily opens the door.

CARL:
(shouts)
What?

EMMA:
This morning I accidentally rolled my lucky marble under your door. Can I
check for it, please?

CARL:
(heavy sigh)
Whatever, just make it quick.
Emma search around the room and place the two cameras she took up from
earlier in places that show Carl.

EMMA:
Found it!

CARL:
Great, now get out of here.

EMMA:
But, why do you want me to leave, when you can have some fun.

Page 22/46
CARL:
(yells)
Get out, now!

EMMA:
Alright, but I want to ask you a question
Carl stared at her in disgust.
EMMA (CONT'D)
Would you rather die or go to jail for a really, really long time?

CARL:
(sighs)
I would rather die because it's less painful than spending time in jail.

EMMA:
Alright then, so jail it is. Thank you, very much, Mr. Carl.
Emma walked up to Carl and grabbed him. She places his hand on her
underneath, then carries him down on herself. She then call out Amy.

EMMA:
Amy, Amy help, Amy!
Amy woke up and ran to the noise. There she saw Carl on Emma.

AMY:
(shocked)
Oh my God!
Amy quickly pushes Carl off then grabs Emma.

EMMA:
(deep breathing)
(sobbing)
Thank you, thank you

AMY:
What is wrong with you, Carl? Doing such things with a child. Are you
crazy?

CARL:
Amy!

AMY:
No
Carl started walking closer. Amy started dressing back with Emma in her
hands crying.

Page 23/46
CARL:
Amy

AMY:
No

CARL :
Amy just listen to me

AMY:
(yells)
Carl, get away from me

CARL:
Amy, I can explain

AMY:
Explain what, Carl?
I saw all I needed to see.
Amy turn to leave. Carl started walking faster towards her

CARL:
Amy, it was just a little bit of a misunderstanding. I didn't do anything.
Amy turned around.
CARL (CONT'D)
She…was the one.. that forced herself on me.. I'm innocent, I swear. I
promise…I didn't touch she was the one that grabbed me and throw me down on
her.

AMY:
Yet she's in my arms crying uncontrollably.
(yells)
And after what I saw you expect me to believe you.

CARL:
Yes, because what I'm saying is the truth

AMY:
I heard enough
Amy turn to leave, Carl started walking even faster. Amy turned back
around.

AMY:

Page 24/46
I swear Carl, if you touch me I'll make sure you spent double the time in
jail… for what you did.
Amy quickly walked out with Emma leaving Carl their shocked, he fell to his
knees crying

CARL:
No, no!
Amy sat Emma down then gave some her water.

AMY :
Here, drink this. Now you sit here and I'll call the cops.
Amy quickly called the police before Carl could come down. Moments later,
they arrived and officer Ken was there too.
I/E. VILLA- NIGHT
The police arrived, Amy went to explain everything that happened while Emma
stayed in. The first person Amy saw was Ken. Ken rushed up to her.

KEN:
Is everything alright? Where's Emma?

AMY:
(breath heavily)
(sigh deeply)
Carl…
(tears up)

KEN:
Amy, what happened?
(holds Amy at her arm)
Amy, Amy, Amy talk to me.

AMY:
(sobbing)
(looks down)
You might not believe this but Carl…Carl…Carl tried…he tried to…
Amy's body started shivering.

KEN:
Amy, Amy, Amy tell me what's going on? What's with Carl and where's Emma?

AMY:
(wipes tears)
(shivering/scared voice)
Carl…Carl tried…he tried to ra…Carl, he tried to rape…Emma.

Page 25/46
Amy looks up at the shocked Ken.

AMY:
I'm sorry. We told you that you could trust us with Emma, and this
happened. I'm so sorry.
Ken dropped his hands and dressed back. Amy dropped on the ground
uncontrollably crying. After a second of shock Ken rushed into the kitchen
for Emma.

KEN :
Emma! Emma!

EMMA:
I'm right here, officer Ken.
Ken turned around to see Emma in a GREY BLANKET with A YELLOW CUP IN HER
HANDS FILL WITH WATER. Ken ran and hugged Emma.

KEN:
I'm sorry, I should've just kept you in my own hands.

EMMA:
It's ok, officer Ken, I was fine. I got Amy, she protected me.
Ken let go off Emma.

KEN:
Come on, let's get you out of here, there's a lot of things to Do.
Ken walked out with Emma while the cops outside arrested Carl and took away
the other kids.
INT. POLICE STATION- MORNING
An investigator was asking John, Rosemary and Amy questions about the
incident.
MR. WILLIAMS (the investigator)
Did you see anything?

JOHN:
No, I was asleep, so was my sister, we shared the same room.
MR. WILLIAMS
So, you didn't hear anything?

ROSEMARY:
No
MR. WILLIAMS
No

Page 26/46
ROSEMARY:
(nods head, no)
No, nothing. I was dead asleep.
MR. WILLIAMS
So, what really happened?

AMY:
Well…(deep sigh)
Emma came to my room that night. She always does before she goes to her
room. She always said goodnight to everyone.
MR. WILLIAMS
Ok, go on

AMY:
But, after she left my room, Emma must have went to my husband, Carl's
room. We mostly slept together, but he had work and needed silence, plus we
got into a fight earlier. (tears up)
MR. WILLIAMS
Umm

AMY:
So… I don't know what really happen, you have to ask Emma. Carl must have
seen that as a opportunity to touch Emma and moments later I heard Emma
calling for me, and then I called the police after getting Emma away from
him.
MR. WILLIAMS
Ok, that will be enough, thanks for your time.
Amy got up and left.

KEN:
Amy

AMY:
(shocked)
Ken, what are you doing here?

KEN:
I work here

AMY:
Oh…yeah…of course…yeah…sure…I knew that

KEN:
Look, I know you're going through a lot, but just hang on

Page 27/46
AMY:
How long will Carl be in prison for

KEN:
It took a long time, since no hard damage was done for about twenty years.

AMY:
(yells)
Twenty years?

KEN:
Yeah, I'm going through a shock too since Carl was my best friend. I just
can't believe that he would do that. He's not that type of person, no
matter how angry he is, I know that he would never do something like that.

AMY:
Yeah, I know right, it's just so…out

KEN:
…of the ordinary

AMY:
Exactly

KEN:
Are you going to get him a lawyer?

AMY:
Why bother, all the proof is already set…he has no chance of survival

KEN:
You make a point. The trail starts tomorrow. You know how long it will
take.

AMY:
(shivering voice)
Not very long, the evidence and…and the clams…no way Carl can get out.

KEN:
(sigh)
Well…at least you get to keep Emma

AMY:

Page 28/46
(excited)
Really?

KEN:
Yea

AMY:
(sigh of release)
Oh thank God. I was so worried if I was going to keep her or not.

KEN:
Well, worrying is over, just please keep her safe this time.

AMY:
I will, I promise

TWO WEEK LATER:

EXT.THE MILLERS HOME- MORNING
After everything that happened with Carl, Amy and the kids moved into their
home before they went to the villa.
EMMA (V.O.)
It's been two weeks since the trail. It ended in three days. All the
evidence was there, so Carl was sentenced to twenty years in prison. Now,
Amy, John, Rosemary and I live in their house before they moved into the
villa. But, now mommy have been paying less attention to me and to her
kids. I can't let this go on any longer. We have a babysitter, she'll be
perfect to put the blame on.
Emma wrote down everything in her notebook as she sat next to the window.
INT. THE MILLERS HOUSE- LATER
Amy just came from work, the kids rushed out to her.
JOHN AND ROSEMARY
Mom!

AMY:
Hey, guys. Did you enjoy yourself with Jessica?

ROSEMARY:
Yeah, we did. She was so cool

AMY:
Good to hear. Where's Emma?

ROSEMARY:
Well…

Page 29/46
EMMA:
I'm right here. Welcome home mom

AMY:
(smile)
Good to be home.
Amy paid Jessica then made dinner for the kids. After a long day of hard
work Amy immediately fell asleep after dinner. Rosemary and John went to
their room while Emma stayed behind, munching on a piece of carrot.
EMMA (V.O.)
I never wanted to dirty my hands again. But, I must act quickly before the
police find out. I only want a mommy that understands and loves me. But she
can't do that with two other children. So time for them to go.
INT. THE MILLER'S HOUSE- MORNING
As usual, Jessica comes over and Amy leaves for work. Jessica was watching
'Spider Man: No way home'. Emma walked down to the living room, where
everyone was and sat next to John.

JESSICA:
Good movie, huh
(look over to Emma)
You know, it's the first time I ever saw you since I started babysitting
you kids

EMMA:
Can you shut up? I'm trying to watch a movie.

JESSICA:
Oh yeah…sorry
(turn back around)
After a while Emma got up and pretended to go to her room, but instead went
to Amy's room. She started searching the room for something.

EMMA:
Where is it? I know there are drugs here somewhere.

JOHN :
What are you doing, Emma?

EMMA:
John, you shouldn't be here.

JOHN:

Page 30/46
If you don't tell me why you're in mom's room, I'm going to tell her.

EMMA:
That won't be necessary.
Emma grab John by her arm and bangs his head on the floor until he stops
moving and blood is everywhere. Emma smiled evilly. Emma walked out and
called Jessica from the front of Amy's room.

EMMA:
Jessica, can you come here for a second?

JESSICA:
Sure, be right there.
Jessica walked up to Emma.

JESSICA:
What is it?

EMMA:
John wants to show you something. Come let's look.

ROSEMARY:
Can I come

EMMA:
No, he called Jessica, alone.
Emma led Jessica in the room.

JESSICA:
So, what is this about?
Jessica looks down and says John.

EMMA :
Say a word and you'll regret it.

JESSICA:
What did you do?
(panics)
Call the ambulance.

EMMA:
Right, I should.
Emma picked up the cellphone in the room and called the ambulance.

Page 31/46
LADY:
Hello, what's your emergency?

EMMA:
(sobbing/panicking voice)
Help, help please! My babysitter knocked my brother unconscious, please
she's coming for me, please, hurry.

LADY:
Hold on, we got your address, we're on our way.

EMMA:
Thank you.
Emma put back the phone.

JESSICA:
So, that was a fake call?

EMMA:
(chuckle)
Oh no, sweetheart it was real.

JESSICA:
(panic)
So why didn't you tell them the truth? What you did to poor John.

EMMA:
And put myself into trouble, no way. I don't think so.

JESSICA:
What?

EMMA :
(shouts)
Jessica stop! Stop please, no!

JESSICA:
What?

EMMA:
(shouts)
What are you doing, stop Jessica!

JESSICA:

Page 32/46
What are you doing? Stop the shouting.

EMMA:
(shouts)
You're hurting him, please stop!

JESSICA:
What are you talking about?
Emma ran down.

ROSEMARY:
What's going on?

EMMA:
(in tears)
Jessica beat up poor John. We need to go.
Jessica ran down.

JESSICA:
What are you doing…stop

EMMA :
Come on, we got to go.
Emma grabbed Rosemary's hand and ran out the house.

JESSICA:
(shouts)
Wait!
Emma and Rosemary ran out of the road yelling for help
EMMA/ROSEMARY
(yells)
Help!
All the neighbors came out looking. Then some cops car pull up and an
ambulance.
Ken then rushed out of one of them.

EMMA:
Officer Ken!

KEN:
Emma, are you alright. What's going on?

EMMA:
(sobbing)

Page 33/46
Our babysitter…beat up John…and was trying to get us too.

KEN:
Ok, just stay here we'll handle the rest.

POLICE MAN:
Ma'am, but your hands in the air.

JESSICA:
I didn't do anything,

POLICE MAN:
Ma'am, please put your hands in the air
Jessica slowly put her hands in the air.

JESSICA:
It wasn't me, it was her
Jessica points on Emma.

JESSICA:
I'm innocent

POLICE MAN:
You have the right to remain silent. Anything you say can and will be used
against you in a court of law. You have the right to an attorney. If you
cannot afford an attorney, one will be provided for you. Do you understand
the rights I have just read to you?

JESSICA:
Yes

POLICE MAN :
With these rights in mind, do you wish to speak to me?

JESSICA:
I just want to speak to my mom

POLICE MAN:
As you wish
The police man took Jessica away as the Paramedics went for John.

ROSEMARY:
Sir, will by brother be alright?

Page 34/46
PARAMEDIC MAN:
Nothing severe

ROSEMARY:
Oh, thank God

KEN :
You two come with me.
Ken went to he police station with Emma and Rosemary. Then he called Amy to
inform her on what happened. In minutes Amy got there.

AMY:
Emma! Rosemary!
Amy ran up to them.
AMY (CONT'D)
Are you girls alright? Nothing has happen to you, right?

ROSEMARY:
We're ok, mom. Well, it was all thanks to Emma.

AMY:
Oh, thank you Emma. You're really a life-saver. Thank you.
Amy hugged the two girls.

EMMA:
Anything…mom

KEN:
Ok, since you all are finish, Amy, a word, please

AMY:
Sure.
Ken and Amy started walking down the hallway.

KEN:
You realize the situation, right.

AMY:
Yeah, are you guys going to take Emma away from me

KEN:
No, plus still no news from her relatives.

AMY:

Page 35/46
Oh, well…I was thinking about adopting Emma.

KEN :
What?

AMY:
Well…since she is an orphan it's only right for someone to adopt her and I
want to do that.

KEN:
Wait, but we still haven't found her relatives yet

AMY:
That won't be necessary. I'm going to adopt Emma and that's final. Get the
paperwork’s, please.

KEN :
Yea, sure.
Ken rushed in his officer and get an adoption paper. He quickly rush back
to Amy.
KEN (CONT'D)
Here you go

AMY:
Thank you.
Amy quickly sign everything.

KEN:
Ok, you're officially Emma's mother, congrats!

AMY:
Thank you, I can't wait to tell her.

KEN:
I really don't know if I feel happy or regret that I didn't do that
earlier.

AMY:
By the way, why didn't you kept Emma instead of giving her to Carl and I?

KEN:
Well, it was a long story, I haven't told anyone, but I had a daughter
once. Her name was Penelope, I was a awful person back then and neglected
my wife and daughter. Soon, my wife, Sarah died by cancer and I fell into

Page 36/46
grief. I drank a lot and smoke and so Penelope health depleted and one day
she had enough and throw herself in a river. I regret that I didn't love
her a such as I should, so then I decided to become a cop and protect
others. That's why I care so much about Emma. She remained me of Penelope.

AMY:
Wow, I'm sorry…about your loss

KEN:
Don't be…it was my fault after all.

AMY:
So, will John be ok?

KEN:
Yeah don't worry, it wasn't any serious damage.

AMY:
Ok then, I'm just going to take the girls and go then.

KEN:
Yeah, sure…be careful on your way home.
Amy took Emma and Rosemary then went home.
INT. THE MILLER'S HOME- NIGNT
Amy and the girls sat down to eat some leftover spaghetti.

AMY:
Emma, Rosemary, I have some good news for you girls.
Amy hold up the adopting papers.
AMY (CONT’D)
Rosemary, you now have a sister, because I adopted Emma.

ROSEMARY:
(excited)
Really, welcome to the family, Emma

EMMA:
(happy)
Thanks Rosemary, or should I say sis. Thanks too mom

AMY:
(smile)
Sure
After dinner they wash the dishes together, then went to sleep.

Page 37/46
That night Rosemary woke up in the middle of the night to get some water.
When she reached in the kitchen she saw Emma sitting around the table
writing something.

ROSEMARY:
Emma, what are you doing?
Before Rosemary could say more Emma walked up to her and knock her out with
her book. Hours later, Rosemary finally woke up, but instead of being in
her bed she was in a chair, her month was tied, her both hands and feet
were tied too. She started freaking out, then Emma started walking towards
her. She removed the cloths from Rosemary's mouth.d

EMMA:
Scream then you'll die.

ROSEMARY:
What is this, Emma? And why am I tied up? What did I do to you?

EMMA:
Simple, your existence is bothering me and my relationship with mom, so you
got to go, just like John.

ROSEMARY:
(shocked)
What? You were the one who did that to John?

EMMA:
Obviously, my acting skills are great, isn't it?

ROSEMARY:
What are you talking about? You could've killed him.

EMMA:
That was the plan, but unfortunately I didn't hit him hard enough. But
whatever I'll get another chance soon enough, as for you, you won't get
another chance to live like John.

ROSEMARY:
What? Why are you doing this to me?

EMMA:
Well, no reason, just because I'm…you know… jealous

ROSEMARY:

Page 38/46
What could you be jealous of me?

EMMA:
You having a mom and a loving family that cares about you. I never got a
loving family, so I had to fine my own.

ROSEMARY:
(sobbing)
So I what did you do?

EMMA:
(deep sigh)
I killed my parents because they didn't care about me. They always call me
a good-for-nothing and that my cousins are way better than me.
(tears up)
They always say they should have had a son…or a smarter daughter. When they
said all of that, it really hurt my feeling so I had to change some things.
I killed them and lied to the cops. Then I hacked into the system and
remove all data about my relatives. I guess since I did that…I wasn't so
dump. Afterwards, I decided to get adopted, of one family didn't work out
I'll simple just get another. No matter how much people I kill. But, things
turned out better than I thought, I found you guys. Well, Ken did.
Everything were great, but then I realize that I only wanted a loving
mother. I fake Carl for trying to rape me. I even put up cameras to back up
my stories. And it worked, I anomalously sent the video to the polices and
it worked. No father in the picture, since men were only beaters and users.
Then, I saw that Amy loved her own children more than me. So, I decided to
get rid of them, I already dispose of one, temporary though, but the other
one permanently. Now, Amy or should I say mom adopted me and so mom and I
are going to live happily ever after. Just the two of us, no one else. And,
I made sure that no one will get in my way of happiness. If I don't have it
no one else will either. (yells) I refuse to be unhappy forever. (soft)
Never!

ROSEMARY:
(sobs)
So, only a mother, that's all. Get rid of everyone else.

EMMA:
Yea, and I did a pretty good job at it too.

AMY:
Now, you see. That's the thing.
Emma and Rosemary turn around to see Amy at the door.

Page 39/46
EMMA:
(panic)
Wha…mom, it's not what it looks like, I swear. Rosemary and I were just
playing a game.

AMY:
Oh, cut the crap, Emma. You just exposed everything to me and all the cops
that’s surrounding this place.

EMMA:
What? What the hell? What do you mean, mother?

AMY:
Please, don't call me mother. After all, I only gave birth to two children
and none of them aren't psycho.
Amy started walking over, Emma ran behind Rosemary and held a knife to
Rosemary's throat.

ROSEMARY:
Ah! Help me! Someone help me! I don't want to die!

EMMA:
Before I end Rosemary's life, tell me, how did you find out?

AMY:
(calm)
Well, after you frame Carl, Ken and I got suspicious, so whenever I went to
work I actually went to the police station to Ken. After some complex
hacking be finally break pass your block. Which, I have to say, your
hacking skills are amazing. If you weren't a psychopath, you could have
been recruited by the government. But, anyways back to the story. So we
find out all the relatives and all your information. So we took our time
going to each of their houses asking them questions about you. You know, at
first I thought why wouldn't you want to seal away your relatives
identities, but after what they told us, we saw why. They wouldn't have
took you in anyway so you decided to make your own family. Anyways, they
said you did a lot of stuff. Like how you suffer from 'Reactive attachment
disorder'. I guess your parents didn't give you enough love. And you had to
be put into Therapist several times. And it didn't end there, you also
suffer from 'Delusions' you believe things that aren't real. That's what
drove you to killing your parents. And finally 'Psychopathy' another lack
of love, this must be because of your family constantly bullying and
looking down on you. Well, I'm Emma, but right now you need as much help as

Page 40/46
possible.

EMMA:
(yells)
Lair! I don't need any help! I'm good, see I'm a normal person. Nothing to
worry about. Ha-ha…nothing at all.

AMY:
Emma, there are about thirty armored men outside ready to fire at you
without mercy or sympathy as a child, so if I were you, I would put the
knife down.
Emma looked around her then slowly removed the knife from around Rosemary's
neck.

AMY:
Drop it!
Emma held her head down then drop the knife.

AMY:
Good girl, now these nice policemen are going to make you better with some
help.
A group of men came and took Emma away. After they all left, Amy untie
Rosemary. Rosemary jumped in her mother's arms crying.

ROSEMARY:
(sobbing)
Oh mom, I was so afraid

AMY:
I know honey, it's ok now I got you and she'll never come back.
That night Amy and Rosemary slept together in Amy's room.
INT. PSYCO HOME- NIGHT
Emma was going though tests.
Operator
Get her inside.

EMMA:
(breathing heavily)
Stop! Stop! I don't want to die! Please stop! (sobbing)
I'm a good girl! Nothing isn't wrong with me! I'm good! I'm not crazy!
Operator
Begin!
Emma's body started vibrating. She started having visions of her past with
her parents and how badly they treated her.

Page 41/46
FLASHBACK:

ROY:
I wish I didn't have such a stupid daughter as you.

MARY:
Right, she just disgust me. Why can't we just put her up for adoption?

EMMA:
(smiling)
Mommy, daddy look it's a drawing of you two and me.

ROY:
(slaps picture away)
You're a disgrace to our family, you stupid, stupid child.

MARY:
I wish I never had a daughter like you, how dumb you can be. You stupid…eh,
just die!

EMMA:
Mommy, Daddy, why are you like this? What did I do to make you two angry at
me?
(sobs)
What did I do? I wish I was never born then mommy and daddy would be happy.
Mommy, Daddy, I'm sorry! I'm sorry that I was ever born!

PRESENT:

EMMA:
Mommy! Daddy! I'm sorry! I'm sorry! I’m sorry I’m a disappointment
Emma then snapped back to reality. She pull the scrap off her.

PROGRAM:
Warning! Warning! Patient is escaping! Patient is escaping!
Emma broke the window and jumped in the other room. She took up a broken
glass and stabbed a man in a doctor coat. Emma held it out to the other
three persons. They backed off. Emma started running through the halls. She
ran and ran through the halls until she made it outside.

EMMA:
(creepy)
I’m coming home, mommy

Page 42/46
Emma slowly walks towards the road. After a long time of walking, a car
stopped next to her.

MAN:
Hey, little girl, wanna ride.

EMMA:
Yes please
Emma got in the car, the seat behind the man.

MAN:
So, why is a little girl like you walking alone at night at these hours.

EMMA:
My friends and I were out partying, but the boys decided to scare us and so
we got separated. Now I was looking for a ride home since I don't know this
place.

MAN:
Oh, what kind of party makes you wear an outfit like that?
Emma was wearing a patient clothe.

EMMA:
(chuckled)
It was a psycho party… you know…us teens

MAN:
Ok

EMMA:
Oh, this is my stop
The man stopped the car at Amy's house.

EMMA:
Thank you, sir. Really appreciate it.

MAN:
Anything, little missy, take care and slow down on the partying

EMMA:
I will
The man drove off. Emma's face turns from smiling to psycho. Emma picked
the lock and got in the house. She went to the kitchen and took up a long,
sharp kitchen knife. Emma walked slowly into Amy's room. While singing this

Page 43/46
song.

EMMA:

Fly little bird

Fly up in the sky

You don't need to be afraid anymore

Mama got you safe and sound

Emma entered Amy's room and turned on the light.

EMMA:
Mommy! I'm home.
(grinning evilly)
Guess I won this one.
(walks closer)
Too back, I have to get another mommy, one that isn't that smart.
Emma started brushing down Amy's hair.

EMMA:
You look beautiful when you're asleep, too bad you got to go.
At that moment Amy opened her eyes. Amy pushes away Emma.

AMY:
What are you doing here? You should be in a mental hospital.

EMMA:
Isn't it obvious, I'm here for revenge.

AMY:
What revenge?

EMMA:
(evil laugh)
What do you mean, what revenge?
Revenge for you not (shouts) loving me. I did everything, and yet it wasn't
enough. What else do you want from me? Only thing I wanted was a mom that
love me or parents, but no, you just had to go and investigate and ruin our
peaceful family. why?

AMY:

Page 44/46
(heavy breathing)
Emma, you need help

EMMA:
(yells)
I don't need help, I need a loving family.
(broke down crying)
Parents that love me and not pull me down. My entire life up until now have
been miserable, and the only time I get to have a mom she turns out hating
me.

AMY:
Emma I don't hate you, I only want the best for you

EMMA:
Whatever
(wipes tears)
I don't need you now, I'll just find a new mom, it's not that hard. After
all, I did it before and I can do it again.
Emma charge to stab Amy but she dodges and ran out of the room. Emma stab
thought the walls, and when she was running after Amy on the stairs, she
fling the knife. Amy dodges and continued running. Emma took up the knife
and followed Amy. Soon they reached outside, Amy slide and drop on the
road. Emma walked over with a grin on her face.

EMMA:
Any last words, mother?

AMY:
(gasping)
I always love you Emma

EMMA:
(smile)
Me too
Emma lean to kill Amy, in second a army of cops surrounded them with lights
and guns.

POLICE MAN:
Freeze! Put your hands in the air!

EMMA:
No, I won't go down like this
A policeman shot her in her left shoulder.

Page 45/46
POLICE MAN:
Put your hands in the air, now!
Emma took the knife and stab herself in her belly. She looked down on Amy.

EMMA:
(shivering)
I'm sorry, I wish you and your family the best. As for me, I'm nothing but
a bother in everyone's live, I wish I was never born. Live would have been
so much better for everyone. You, Carl, John, Rosemary, my mom and dad,
everyone. They were right, I was nothing but bad luck.

AMY:
Don't beat yourself up, you're a victim too, enjoy life in the next world.
The two share a warm hug, then Emma drop dead in Amy's hands.
EMMA (V.O.)
I wonder, if I was born in Amy's family then maybe just maybe I would of
been happy. I lived a very horrible life, I'm happy that I'm dead now, so
everyone can live happily ever after. As they say, the good always win no
matter how hard evil tries.
Emma closed her eyes and died.

ONE WEEK LATER:

AMY (V.O.)
Dear Emma, wherever you are I just want to say that everything is good.
Carl got taken out of jail, John recovered and we're going on another
family trip. Things have process a lot, anyways I hope your doing fine
wherever you are. Love, Amy

EMMA:
