to go to bed, as he goes to bed he
thinks he see’s something. When he
realizes there’s nothing there he
walks away only to show there is a
figure in the window."
He looks at the screen and has a sigh of relife, seeming
satified he looks back at the clock and sees the time still
reads 3:02am
Looking puzzled he puts his glasses on to closely read the
clock and sees it acually says 3:46am

1 or nothing
This is my first screen play.. with my weak grammar.
It’s pretty short screen play, but enjoy it 🙂
intro
There are 2 guys, Josh and Daniel. Josh and Daniel are really smart. But Josh was always first one and Daniel was always second one. One day, Daniel gets the highest mark in his school and Josh gets second mark. Josh gets mad because he does not get the highest mark.
Kills
Teacher: Here’s your mark guys. Daniel, you did great job this time!
Josh: What was just happened? Oh My God. I’m not the highest one?
Daniel: I won this time, Josh. You better give up.
Josh: It shouldn’t be happened! It’s because of you! Daniel, you should disappear in this world.
Josh kills Daniel because he did not get the highest mark. Josh starts to be crazy. He isn’t normal. He is crazy.
Classroom
Teacher: Is everyone here?
Students: Josh and Daniel are away.
Teacher: They went to washroom 20 minutes ago. John, Go and check it.
So John goes to washroom to check them.
Finds
John goes into the washroom and sees Daniel’s corp and gets shocked. Suddenly, there is an announcement.
Announcement: LOCK DOWN! EVERYONE LOCK DOWN!
John was frozen and did not know what to do. He locked the washroom door.
Escapes
Announcement: Code Green!
John thinks it is not dangerous anymore. John goes back to the class and sees classmates’ corps. John tries to call the police and escape the school, but there is no signal in school and all the doors were closed.
John: I have to escape this place.
Suddenly, Daniel appears.
Daniel: You are the last one, John.
John: How can you do that to people?
Daniel: If I cannot be the first place, I will kill everyone instead of being a loser.
John: You cannot be the first place. Killing people does not make you first place. But the only way you can be successful is trying hard, not killing your rival.
Daniel: So you are saying that I did not try hard? Is that why I’m not the best one? Then I will just kill myself. That will make it better, right?
John: NOOOO!!
Daniel kills himself.
John: Daniel… You are an unfortunate one. I’ll miss you… forever..

where her dad is sitting at the table drinking coffee and
reading the newspaper.
DAD
"Good morning Sam, its about time
you got up!"
SAM
"Morning dad. Its only 9, and its a
Sunday. Nobody wakes up that early
on a Sunday."
Sam takes a seat across the table from her dad, and grabs
the sports section of the paper.
DAD
"Well some people do, people with a
job for example. You should be one
of those people. Jobs look good on
college applications."
SAM
"Yeah yeah I know. Can I go hang
out with Anna today?"
DAD
"No."
SAM
"But why not?"
DAD
"Because the last time I let the
two of you hang out, you wouldn’t
answer any of my phone calls, and
then you didn’t show up until 3am."
SAM
"oh my gosh would u please calm
down. Yeah so what if i didn’t? You
don’t need to call me every five
minutes. I’m not 6 years old dad,
I’m 16. Mom will let me go."
DAD
"Don’t you dare bring your mother
into this it is our problem not
hers."
(CONTINUED)
CONTINUED: 2.
SAM
"Oh yeah? we’ll see about that."
DAD
"Sam it is not your mothers
buisness, this is between you and
I"
SAM
"Well maybe it would be her
business if you hadn’t made her

SAM
"Nope."
ANNA
"So then you called your mom? What
did she say?"
SAM
"What she usually does, that I
could go and just to ignore how
over controlling dad is."
ANNA
"Ha that sounds fair enough, at
least you have a parent on your
side. Both of mine are like,
insanely protective."
SAM
"But they still let you come today!
My dad wouldn’t even let me do
that!"
(CONTINUED)
CONTINUED: 3.
ANNA
"Don’t worry about it. Its a
typical parent thing."
Sam walks up to the counter to get a free sample of
chocolates, and Anna follows.
ANNA
"My point is, your dad only does
these things because he cares about
you."
SAM
"I don’t know if it a care issue. I
think he just wants to dictate my
life for the sake of it."
Sams phone rings, she answers it.
SAM
"Hello?"
Dads voice is heard on the other line.
DAD
"Sam? OH thank god you’re alright.

breath before speaking.

this time, shes not coming back."
SAM

fault. If you hadn’t made her leave
in the first place, this never
would have happened!"
Sam runs upstairs, leaving dad in the kitchen, where he puts
his head in his hands ans sobs.
SCENE 4
In a cemetery, a funeral is being held. Several men and
women dressed in black surround a coffin with flowers laid
across it. A pastor reads from a Bible, then motions towards
Sams Dad.
DAD
"Now, as im sure you all know, I..
uhh... well I’m not the greatest at
this sort of thing. But, if theres
one thing that needs to be said,
its this: I loved Sams mother more
then anything, and in the end, we
both decided that for Sams sake, we
should take a break, so she went
off on her own for a while. And for
those months that we spent apart, I
hated myself for just letting her
go. I wish I had run after her, and
begged her to stay, but I didn’t.
And now its too late to change what
happened, and I wish more then
anything that I had gotten the
chance to tell her that I loved
her. She was an amazing person, and

DAD
"Its ok."
SAM
"so I goess its just you and me

SAm and her father hug and get into the car and drive away.
The Pitbull Law
If dogs are said to be a man’s best friend, why is the Ontario government trying to cause the extinction of a specific dog breed? Many people love pit bulls, but that did not stop the government from passing the “Pitbull Law” which states that no pit bulls are to be sold, bred, or imported into the province of Ontario. Why is it acceptable to pass judgement on one type of dog breed when the same treatment would not be tolerated for humans? How is this law fair to the loyal owners that love the breed? Did the government consider that the dog’s bad behaviour could be a result of poor training? Overall, it is unfair for a dog breed to be banned simply because of a societal stereotype.
Everything comes in different shapes, sizes, and colours and it has been instilled from a young age not to judge based on those differences. However, the pitbull does not get that type of respect, as many people jump at the chance to judge them. Just because the pitbull has a larger body and may appear scarier than most other dog breeds people assume that they are vicious
and simply want to attack. Jumping to that conclusion is like stereotyping a man with a bigger build as someone that wants to harm other individuals. We know this is not true, as most men that have bigger builds are very friendly. This realization of an obvious stereotype could go for pit bulls too, as most of the pit bulls are friendly and just like any other dog. Unfortunately, unlike humans they are not considered to be equals with other dogs and are treated as if they are horrible
creatures that don’t deserve to live.
The treatment of the pitbull breed is unquestionably unfair to owners and breeders alike. Most owners have grown up with pitbulls and
have a developed an attachment to the breed, and now are being told that they are not allowed to have them any longer. While many of the breeders are finding themselves having to make the choice between leaving their family and their home to move to a province that
allows pitbulls, or staying in Ontario and living without the dog they adore and losing the income that they were making by selling the puppies. This is a very hard decision that these individuals should not even have to consider making, and yet they are still being forced to do so.
Although some owners take excellent care of their pets, there are some that should not have a pitbull or any other dog to begin with. Many people that own a dog do not know how to properly care for them and they do not give them the attention they need. As a result, dogs start to develop bad behaviour and it is due to this behaviour that some dogs end up attacking. Even though other dogs are known to attack, pit bulls are the only dogs that are being punished, which is truly unfair. Since other dogs do attack it shows that it is not just pitbull, but rather the owners that have role in how their dogs behave. Therefore, it is inexcusable to put all the blame on the dog, while the owners do not get any punishment. The dogs are not the ones in control, and for this reason the owner is the one who needs to be punished.
Overall, pit bulls should not be banned from Ontario simply because of a societal stereotype. It is unfair to the dog to be judged just
because they have a bigger body type, it is unfair to the owners that love and breed them, and it is unthinkable to punish a dog for an owner’s neglect. Therefore, for these, and countless other reasons, the pit bull ban should be dropped.

Police man 1: “Tell me what happened.”
Girl: “I’m not entirely sure, I was downstairs when i
heard my mother scream. By the time I got upstairs she was lying on the
ground not breathing.”
Police man 1: “Did you see anyone?”
Girl: “No, but I know it was my dad, he killed her then ran.”
Police man 1: “You’re sure?”
Girl: “I’m sure.”
Police man 1 walks over to other police and tells them what he just heard.
Police man 2: “This doesn’t make any sense. Her father has been away at war for 6 months.
Police man 1: “Then what happened in there?”
Shot of the house.
scene2:
Shot of a car driving into a driveway or a house.

Girl: “Thanks”
Amy: “Why don’t you show Aliza her room Jenny?”
Jenny nodds, grabs Aliza’s bags and leads her upstairs to a small room.
Jenny: “I’ll let you get settled then give you a tour of the house.”
Aliza: “Thanks.”
Jenny leaves room and shuts the door. Aliza looks
around the room and walks over to the window and looks outside. She
turns back around and walks over to her bags and starts to unpack. The
last bag she opens is filled with chemical substances. Close up on
Aliza’s face with a mischievous smile.
scene3:
Shot of outside police station then the inside where 2 men and 1 woman are talking.
Police man 1: “I’m telling you, there was definitely
no one else in that house that night. We’ve searched everywhere for a
sign of an intruder, we’ve asked the neighborhood if they saw anything
and they said no.”
Police woman : “I don’t think it was suicide either. There was clearly a sign of struggle.”
Police man 3: “Has anyone done any background research on Aliza?”
Police woman: “All it says is that she’s very gifted, especially in science.”
Police man 1: “That gets us nowhere.”
Police woman: “Maybe not, but she’s pretty smart, she could have been lying.”
scene4:
Aliza is wandering around her new house while
everyone is out. She finds a door and opens it. Shot of a staircase
going down. Aliza walks down them and finds a small abandoned basement
with only a desk, one light and no windows.
Aliza: “This will do.”
Aliza goes back upstairs and comes down a few moments
later carrying her chemicals. She sets them up and starts working on a
project. A few hours later Aliza stops working and goes back upstairs.
Shot of a calendar.
Aliza: “Just 2 more days and it’ll all be over.”
scene5:
The next day Aliza goes to an old warehouse by
herself. She takes the still functioning elevator to the second floor
and walks down a hallway hearing voices of people.
Aliza: “Hi, I’m Aliza, Jason’s daughter.”
Nurse: “Oh how nice of you to drop by Aliza! I’ll go get him right now if you’d like.”
Aliza: “Oh no that’s ok, I’m just here to help you out today if you need it.”
Nurse: “Oh well yes that’d be lovely, why don’t you just keep people company?”
Aliza: “Sure.”
Aliza looks around the room and sees and old lady sitting by herself and talking to herself. Aliza walks over and says hello.
old lady: “Jim?”
Aliza: “No, Jim isn’t here, but why don’t you tell me about him.”
The old lady tells Aliza about her husband Jim who died years ago but she can’t let him go.
Old lady: “Oh but enough about me, why is a young girl like you here?”
Aliza: “Oh just to talk. Perhaps I could tell you a story?
Old lady: “Oh that would be nice thank you.”
Aliza tells the old lady about how a few days ago her
dad killed her mother the was brought here for being insane and how
she’d eventually get revenge,
Old lady: “This must be so hard for you.”
Aliza looks out a window then down at her feet and
back to the old lady, it’s much easier than you’d think, then smiles. A
litte while later when everyone’s gone to dinner, Aliza goes off by
herself and looks around the building. She finds a small place with no
cameras watching her.
Aliza: “See you tomorrow.”
Smiling, she walks home.
scene6:
Police man: “I’m starting to think something is wrong
with Aliza. She’s not a normal 12 year old. There’s something very
different about her. And I’m sure she’s the one who killed her mother.”
Police woman: “How do you know that?”
Police man: “Well, I found these gloves in a trash
can in the kitchen of her house. It has the mothers DNA all over them.
And Aliza’s inside them. There were marks on the mothers neck, she was
choked to death. For a gifted girl, she didn’t hide her evidence very
well.
Police woman: “Why would she kill her own mother?”
Police man: “Well that’s the problem. She insists
that her father killed her mother, but he hasn’t been there for years.
I’m thinking Aliza might have a mental issue.
Police woman: “Perhaps we should pay a visit to her house.”
scene7:
Next day, a police car pulls up to Aliza’s house. A man and woman get out and ring the doorbell. Amy answers.
Amy: “Hello, officer. How can I help you?”
Police man: “Is Aliza here? We’d like to speak to her.”
Amy: “I’m afraid not. She’s out.”
Police woman: “Do you know where?”
Amy: “I think she went for a walk maybe. She said she’d be back soon, you could wait here if you’d like.”
police woman: “I think we will thank you, perhaps we could as kyou a few questions while we wait as well.”
Amy: “Of course, come in.”
Police man: “Thank you.”
The 3 of them enter the house.
scene8:
Aliza is back in the small room with no cameras
holding a glass or some liquid. She starts pouring it into a plumbing
tube. When the glass is empty Aliza drops it and starts running. As you
see Aliza running all you can hear is her heartbeat and panting. You
hear muted explosion sounds as the screen fades to black.
scene9:
Back at Aliza’s house the police man’s phone rings.
Police man: “hello?…Okay, we’ll be right there.”
Police woman: “What was that?”
Police man: “The old abandoned warehouse has exploded. They found a girl but haven’t identified her yet, we have to go.”
The police leave the house and hurry over to the
warehouse which is still smoking and in a pile with firemen putting out
fires and ash going everywhere.
Detective: “You just got here in time, they’ve identified the girl. It’s Aliza Smith. She was here when the building blew up.”
Both of the police look at the detectice in shock.
They all turn their attention to a stretcher covered up goes by with 2
paramedics on each side. Theres on arm dangling off the side with a
bracelet. Close up of the bracelet that says “love you forever
Aliza-Dad”.
