Davey you can't leave it like that. You're not going to kill Cleo off are you.
Scene 1- Hospital- Morning
(Selena and Jonathan are in the hospital waiting room)
Selena: I just blame myself Jonathan..
Jonathan: Now come on, none of this your fault! Atleast she's still alive..
Selena: Cleo's in a critical condition, Jonathan! Anything can still happen! She could die in any second!
Jonathan: Now don't speak like that Selena! Don't you dare speak like that! Cleo will pull through this, just like she pulled through her overdose..
Selena: How do you know eh?!
Jonathan: I just bloody well know Selena! She's a fighter, she'll get through it! And once she does get through this, she needs help, serious help..
Selena: I told the doctor before that she was depressed! But did they listen!?..
Jonathan: Well they're not gonna discharge her this time! I'm gonna make sure of it! I'm gonna make sure she gets medical help...she's depressed, really depressed...Cleo won't be leaving hospital for a long time yet, not until she's better..
Scene 2- Nightlife Nightclub- Afternoon
(Russell and Terry are down Nightlife. They're both sitting at a booth drinking)
Russell: Terry...there's something i need to tell you..
Terry: Give me 10 guesses over what it is! :rolleyes: Come on, out with it..
Russell: I went to see Kev Peters in hospital..
Terry: You what?! :eek:
Russell: Look i'm sorry...i just felt it was my duty to go and see him, so i could confront what i did!
Terry: You stupid *******! Do you realise what risks you went too?! How did you get to see him!?
Russell: I said i was Kev's cousin....
Terry: You lied! :eek:
Russell: Well how else was i gonna get to see him?!
Terry: Russell, how could you?!
Russell: I had too Terry! And i don't regret it, seeing him there...in a critical condition, wired up to a load of different machines..it made me realise what i did! How much damage i did to his body...how evil i was for beating him like that!
Terry: Well if you get caught by the police, it's your own fault! You shouldn't have visited him Russell, it was a big mistake, if you get caught out, your in deep **** and i'm not gonna help you get out of it!
(Terry walks off and leaves the nightclub. Russell looks on, taking in what Terry said. Thinking he has no other options left, he decides to go to the police and confess to what he did)
Poor Cleo....:(
Good stuff, Mave.....Cant wait to see how this Kev Peters stuff pans out....
And were's Jason while poor Cleo's in hosptial. Chasing after some floozy I bet.
Scene 3- Nightlife Nightclub- Night
(Gangs of clubbers are waiting outside Nightlife ready to go in. The entrance to the club is still shut. Jason is in his office, walking up and down the room. Nicola is sat down)
Nicola: Jason, we have to close this club! Cleo's life is hanging by a thread!
Jason: So what Nic?! We can cope without her!
Nicola: She's one of us Jas! Selena and Jonathan can't cope behind the bar without her!
Jason: Me and you both managed when Selena and Jonathan swanned off to play Florence Nightingale to Cleo!
Nicola: But she might die Jason! We've got to show some respect and close the club to show that we're thinking of her..
Jason: Oh shut it Nic! You really do talk out of your **** sometimes don't you?! If we close this club, we'll be losing out on profit!
Nicola: I still think it's a bad decision to open the club..
Jason: Well i think we should open the club..and guess what, i am going to open this club and i don't care what you say about it!
(Jason storms out of the office, ready to open Nightlife for the night)
Scene 4- Nightlife Nightclub- Night
(Terry barges through all the clubbers and goes up to Jonathan who is behind the bar. He starts speaking to Jonathan over the loud music that's playing. We see clubbers dancing around in the background)
Terry: Have you seen Russell, Jon?
Jonathan: Oh he told me he wouldn't be at work, don't tell Jas though..he doesn't know that Russell is bunking off! He'd flip if he found out!
Terry: Don't worry, i won't tell him! Did he say where he was going?
Jonathan: Nope...he only told me he had to sort something out..
(Terry thinks for a moment over what Russell could mean, then a look of panic crosses his face)
Scene 5- Nightlife Nightclub- Night
(The night is going well. Lots of clubbers are drinking and dancing lightly to the music. We focus on two clubbers, Helen and Maria who are propped up against the bar drinking tequila)
Maria: Quite good in here ain't it?
Helen: Yeah not bad..
(Suddenly we cut to a hooded man who enters the nightclub. He takes out a packet of ecstasy tablets and hands them round to every clubber who accepts one. He suddenly approaches Helen and whispers in her ear)
Hooded Man: Fancy a pick me up?
Helen: What do you have in mind?
Hooded Man: An ecstasy tablet...here, have it..your guaranteed to have a much better time if you take one!
Helen: I'm not sure...i'm not very keen on drugs...i've never experimented with them!
Hooded Man: Well here's your chance, your guaranteed to have fun if you take it!
(Helen looks into the hooded man's eyes, he offers her the ecstasy tablet. She pauses for a second to think about what she's doing, then she accepts it. She puts the ecstasy tablet in her mouth and swallows it down with a drink)
Looks like cleo is not the only one from the nightclub to end up in hospital tonight. :nono:
Scene 6- Local Police Station- Night
(Terry rushes through the entrance of the police station where he sees Russell standing by reception)
Terry: Jesus Christ Russell! I knew you'd be here....you haven't told them what happened have you!?
Russell: No not yet...but i will be now...a police officer is coming down to see me now, i'm gonna tell them what happened Terry! I'm gonna confess that i beat up Kev Peters!
Terry: No Russell! You can't do this...you just can't!
Russell: I've got to face what i've done, hiding the truth is just hurting me inside Terry! As each day passes, i feel more and more guilty knowing that i put that poor man in hospital! I nearly killed him! He could still die!
Terry: Russell! Just stop getting hysterical, just think about what your doing! If you confess to the police now what you did, you'll be kissing goodbye to freedom for a long time, do you want that!?
Russell: I deserve to kiss goodbye to freedom after what i've done!
Terry: Russ! Please...things will get better! As time passes, you'll get over what you did and move on with your life! If you confess to the police now, you won't be able to move on, you'll go down in prison..be forced to bend over in the showers to pick up a bar of soap!
Russell: Oh dear god!
Terry: Do you want that Russell?! Do you want to go through that prison experience?! If you don't, i advise you don't confess what you did to the police! Hang on in there, the police haven't got anything against you, your likely to get away with this! If Kev Peters recovers, he's more than likely gonna have memory loss so he wouldn't be able to pick you out as the culprit!
(Russell looks at Terry, and thinks about what he has said)
Russell: But what i've done....it's so wrong! I've commited a crime, he has a wife, a child! There going through agony right now because i hurt a member of their family! :(
Terry: Like i said Russell, things will get better, we're mates, best mates and i'll stand by you...we'll get through this together!
(Russell smiles at Terry. Terry smiles back)
Terry: So come on, lets get back to Nightlife, we've got doors to be guarding!
(Russell and Terry leave the police station. Terry smiles, knowing he has talked Russell out of confessing to the police)
