A New Beginning, Part 1 transcript

Act 1
[Shot of Josh's eye opening, looking up at tree's canopys. Overhead shot panning out to show Josh is lying injured in a jungle. Josh's vision is blurred and he sees small, disfuigured and bright objects moving and flickering in the distance. He hears screaming. He stands up and his vision comes back. He sees plane wreckage in a tree and people running around, screaming, in distress.]

CHARLOTTE: Help! Help! I need help over here! Please! Anyone? I need help

[Shot of a black haired woman attending to a man who is injured on the floor.]

JOSH: Hold on!

[He runs towards the woman but he notices the plane wreckage in the tree is going to snap and fall.]

JOSH: Hey! Move! Move! Get away from there! Come on! Go!

CHARLOTTE: No. What? What are you talking about?

JOSH: No! You don’t understand, we have to go now! You see that up there? We’re all dead if we don’t hurry up

CHARLOTTE: But... I can’t just leave...

JOSH: I'm sorry. But we have to go now! There’s nothing you can do for him

[Josh grabs the woman and he trys to drag her up]

CHARLOTTE: But... The man...

[Josh then pulls the woman up and they start running. The plane wreckage falls to the ground, killing the injured man underneath it.]

CHARLOTTE: [Whispering as she's running] Oh, my God.

[The wreckage crashes to the ground and the ground shakes. People scream with fear. The woman and Josh dive to the floor to get out of the way. They both stand up.]

CHARLOTTE: You should've let me stay!

JOSH: [Angrily] What's your name?

CHARLOTTE: [Quickly in a harsh return] Charlotte, you?

JOSH: Charlotte? I'm Josh. And next time, remind me not to save your life.

[Her eyes fill with guilt. Josh starts to walk away]

CHARLOTTE: I...I didn't...

JOSH: [Sarcastically] You're welcome!
