Transcripción completa de Reflection 4: Head Pie

MUSIC CUE INTERIOR HOSPITAL ROOM AMBIENCE WOMAN My mom used to say that trust earned over a lifetime can be lost in the blink of an eye. She also said lost trust is a debt that might never be repaid. But sometimes what we think we see, what we eye witness, what we swear is the absolute truth is not the entire story. Memories have only two dimensions. Life has five. MUSIC THEME ANNOUNCER This is 13 Reflections.  Reflection 4: Head Pie MUSIC CUE - DARK MAGIC NARRATOR Ray and Ashley stand alert in Polly’s bedroom. Ray adjusts the weight of the duffle bag on his shoulder. Ashley clutches a long kitchen knife. They look from each other to the bathroom door. In front of the closed door is a tiny book shelf, a toy chest and two small chairs. ASHLEY It was huge, Ray. Its skin was rough like a crocodile but it was sort of human shaped. It had long claws, teeth like ice pics, and its eyes. Oh my god. It had yellow snake eyes. RAY And this thing was coming out of the mirror? ASHLEY Reaching out. Clawing at me. It was predatory. Angry. RAY And this is your barricade? Ya know, for someone that builds things for a living, I'm not impressed. ASHLEY It's what I had. CHAIRS PLACED TO THE LEFT BOOKSHELF SLIDES TO THE RIGHT RAY If this thing can come out of a mirror, what makes you think a door will stop it? ASHLEY You think I’m crazy? RAY Stressed out for sure. ASHLEY You don’t believe me. RAY Skeptical maybe, but... RAY WRESTLES WITH HIS DUFFLE BAG RAY ( CONT' D) (CONT'D) Not taking any chances though. ASHLEY What do you have in there? A pipe? RAY One and a half inch hardened Columbus steel with a solid lug welded on the end. I call it Molly. ASHLEY Molly? RAY Molly Bend Em. PIPE WHIPS THROUGH THE AIR ASHLEY You ready? Pull!       DOOR YANKS OPEN RAY CLAWS ON TILE SCUTTLE FORWARD ASHLEY SQUEELS RAY SWINGS WITH A GRUNT SMACK SPLATTER RAY (CONT'D) What in the blue blazes? ASHLEY That’s not what I saw in the mirror. RAY That’s the biggest rat I’ve ever seen. ASHLEY That’s not what I saw. RAY Where’s its tail? It’s cut clean off. ASHLEY Ray. Believe me. The thing in the mirror was huge. RAY It’s just a rat, Ash. BATHROOM DOOR CLOSES ASHLEY This might sound crazy, but I think Polly’s disappearance has something to do with the book she was reading to me. RAY Was that the book with a pot smoking caterpillar and a girl on acid? ASHLEY Not that book. This one. LUCY’S NOTEBOOK RUSTLES PAGES TURN ASHLEY (CONT'D) Right here is says you can go into a mirror. RAY Huh. Well. This is a lot to think about. ASHLEY Please don’t think I'm crazy, Ray. I couldn’t stand it if you thought I was crazy. RAY No. I’d don’t. Cross my heart. ASHLEY You are important to me. I shouldn’t have let you go. RAY You mean a lot to me or I wouldn’t have come back. ASHLEY I’m so glad you did. RAY You pull on me like gravity. I love you Ashley. ASHLEY Do you even know what love means? RAY It means I can be totally dumb and know that you won't laugh AT me. ASHLEY Most of the time. RAY That I can cry and know that you'll comfort me. ASHLEY All of the time. RAY It means I can tell you my fears and know that you won't scorn me. In a word, its trust. ASHLEY Can I trust you Ray? RAY All of the time. But it’s late and I’m exhausted. ASHLEY You can't go. RAY Nothing is going to come out of that mirror ASHLEY Then you sleep here. RAY Now you're talking. ASHLEY Alone.
