Ivy is running down a street, a frazzled look on her face as she checks her watch several times. 

Comes to the edge of the pavement and runs out with out looking.

See the driver of the car.

See Ivy, eyes wide, frozen in the road. 

Back to the driver.

Back to Ivy. 

Blackness and sound of squealing cars.

Ivy is lying eyes closed in the middle of the road, blood trailing from the corner of her mouth.

Rewinds back to beginning. 

Car drives past.

Ivy crosses the road, without getting hit.

Ivy: “What would you say your strengths are?”

Winsten: “I’ve got many, but probably maths and I’ve got to say golf!” 

Ivy: “And how old are you?”

Winsten: “Well maths was my strong point but I think I’m (loks down at his fingers and starts counting)........20?”

(Ivy looks at Winsten looking confused, Winsten stars back with a blank look on his face)

Ivy: “Have you had any previous experience in this line of work?”

Freddie: “No, but I’d quite like to learn something new.”

(Ivy and Freddie look back and forth at each other, both feeling the sexual tension)
