FADE IN:

EXT. RAINY DARK ROAD - NIGHT
                                                            
Its dark stormy night a single car is driving on a lonely
road.Inside the car the song Hurt by Nine Inch Nails is
playing. The driver Brad is annoyed and keeps looking over
at his fiancee Emily. The passenger Emily is distraught and
looks as if she has been crying earlier, she stares at her
phone and tries her best to not look at Brad.
                                                            
 
INT. INSIDE THE CAR - NIGHT
                                                            
                                         CUT TO: INSIDE THE
CAR
                                                            
Inside the car Brad is driving and Emily is sitting quietly
fiddling with her phone. Brad looks out the window.
                                                            
                       BRAD
The storm looks like its getting
worse.
                                                            
Emily sits quietly ignoring Brad.
                                                            
                       BRAD
Well. OK then.
                                                            
Brad acknowledges that Emily is ignoring him and starts
talking to himself.
                                                            
                       BRAD
Dinner was good. Yes I thought so
too. I espically enjoyed the
steak. What a coincedence I had
that too. I know what are the
chances.
                                                            
Brad's sense of humor has failed to amuse Emily. Brad and
Emily sit quietly listening to the radio for a few minutes
before Brad tries again.
                                                            
                       BRAD
I think its suppose to storm all
weekend.
                                                            
                       EMILY
      (Softly)
Whatever.
                                                            

2.

                       BRAD
      (Surprised)
Whatever? So it can talk.
                                                            
Emily goes back to being silent. Brad turns his attention
from the road to Emily.
                                                            
                       BRAD
      (Concerned)
Alright Emily whats wrong? You've
been like this all night.
                                                            
Emily remains silent. Brad turns down the radio.
                                                            
                       BRAD
Hello? Earth to Emily. Is there is
anyone out there?
                                                            
Emily keeps ignoring him and Brad becomes frustrated. Brad
flings his arms in the air in frustration.
                                                            
                       BRAD
      (Frustrated)
Fine! Fuck it.
                                                            
The two remain silent inside the car. Its so queit inside
the car the rain is easily heard pounding on the car. Emily
finally says something without looking up from her phone.
                                                            
                       EMILY
      (Softly)
Rachel.
                                                            
Brad is relieved to finally hear Emily say something.
                                                            
                       BRAD
What?
                                                            
                       EMILY
      (Clearer)
Rachel. Who is Rachel?
                                                            
Brad has a confused look on his face.
                                                            
                       BRAD
      (Confused)
Rachel? Do you mean the Rachel I
work with?
                                                            
                       EMILY
Who is she?
                                                            

3.

                       BRAD
      (Confused)
Who Rachel? Just a co-worker. Why?
                                                            
Emily returns to be quiet and Brad has a confused look on
his face. After a few moments have passed Emily starts
talking again.
                                                            
                       EMILY
Why does she have your e-mail?
                                                            
                       BRAD
What do you mean? All my
co-workers have my e-mail, and I
have all of thier e-mails.
                                                            
Emily now looks up and out her window.
                                                            
                       EMILY
      (Suspicious)
Oh really?
                                                            
                       BRAD
Yes. Really.
                                                            
                       EMILY
Bullshit!
                                                            
                       BRAD
      (Surprised)
What?
                                                            
Emily finally turns and looks at Brad.
                                                            
                       EMILY
      (Angry)
I said that's bullshit Brad!
                                                            
                       BRAD
How is that bullshit?
                                                            
                       EMILY
For once Brad, why don't you have
the decency and tell me the truth.
You atleast owe me that much.
                                                            
                       BRAD
The truth? What the hell are you
talking about I've told you the
truth!
                                                            
                       EMILY
Whatever!
                                                            

4.

                       BRAD
Don't whatever me. Tell me exactly
what you are accusing me of.
                                                            
                       EMILY
I read the e-mail Brad.
                                                            
                       BRAD
What?
      (Pause)
What e-mail?
                                                            
                       EMILY
You know exactly what e-mail I'm
talking about.
                                                            
Emil starts finger quoting.
                                                            
                       EMILY
The one your "Co-Worker" sent you.
                                                            
                       BRAD
What are you talking about?
                                                            
                       EMILY
You know what fucking e-mail I'm
talking about, the one that said
you looked cute the other day, I
miss you today and I can't wait to
see Monday, and says when are you
gonna leave that girlfriend you
are always complaining about.
                                                            
                       BRAD
      (Speechless)
I. Ahh. I.
      (Pause)
I don't know what to say.
                                                            
                       EMILY
How about the truth!
                                                            
                       BRAD
I am telling the truth I don't
know anything about this e-mail.
                                                            
Emily starts crying.
                                                            
                       EMILY
You swore Brad. You swore if we
got back together that you would
never cheat on me again. That you
would never hurt me again. You
            (MORE)

5.

                       EMILY (cont'd)
swore.
                                                            
                       BRAD
Emily I'm not cheating on you. I
promise.
                                                            
                       EMILY
      (Snaps)
Your promises mean nothing to me
anymore.
                                                            
                       BRAD
Emily i'm not cheating on you, and
I don't know anything about this
e-mail. Rachel is just a
co-worker, nothing more.
                                                            
                       EMILY
      (mumbling)
Whatever, once a cheater always a
cheater.
                                                            
Brad visibly hurt by Emily's statement backs down and
quitely turns his attention back to the road. Emily resumes
looking at her phone.
                                                            
Hurt by the Nine Inch Nails continues to play in the
background as the couple keep driving.

A van stopped sideways in the middle of the road, a
mysterious figure ,with his face and boy concealed by a
black poncho, waving down Brad's vehicle as it approaches.
                                                            
 
INT. INSIDE THE CAR - NIGHT
                                                            
Emily looks up from her phone and sees something out the
window.
                                                            
                       EMILY
Whats that?
                                                            

6.

                       BRAD
Looks like someone had an
accident.
                                                            
Brad stops the car opens the door and steps out as raining
begins to pour on him, and turns backs to Emily.
                                                            
                       BRAD
I'll be back in a second I'm gonna
see if I can help him out.
                                                            
                       EMILY
Alright.
                                                            
Brad closes the door and leaves.
                                                            
 
EXT. OUTSIDE ON THE ROAD - NIGHT
                                                            
                                         CUT TO: STRANGER

Brad approaches the stranger in the heavy rain.
                                                            
                       BRAD
Hey. Are you alright?
                                                            
The stranger says nothing just nods his head yes.
                                                            
                       BRAD
Do you need any help with your
van?
                                                            
Again the stranger says nothing and nods his head yes. Brad
turns around and signals OK to Emily.
                                                            
 
INT. INSIDE THE CAR - NIGHT
                                                            
                                         CUT TO: EMILY IN THE
CAR
                                                            
Emily from within the car watches as Brad signals the Ok.
She then looks down at her phone. On the phone are pictures
of Emily and Brad together in romantic poses. A tear runs
from Emilys face.
                                                            
 
EXT. OUTSIDE ON THE ROAD - NIGHT
                                                            
                                         CUT TO: BRAD AND THE

Emily continues to look at pictures of her and Brad.
                                                            
 
EXT. OUTSIDE ON THE ROAD - NIGHT
                                                            
                                         CUT TO: BRAD OUTSIDE
                                                            
Brad is crawling towards the car and he is now bleeding from
his forehead where he was struck with the pipe. He starts
screaming out to Emily.
                                                            
                       BRAD
      (Screaming)
EMILY!
      (Pause)
EMILY!
      (Pause)
RUN!
                                                            
Emily can't hear him because the radio is too loud and she
is still looking at her phone. As Brad continues to crawl to
the car he stops. Brad is then visciously dragged off camera
with him screaming.
                                                            
 
INT. INSIDE THE CAR - NIGHT
                                                            
Emily looks up but Brad and the stranger are nowhere to be
seen. Emily turns down the raido and curiously opens the
door and calls out for Brad.
                                                            
                       EMILY
      (Screaming)
BRAD?
                                                            

8.

All that is heard is the sound of heavy rain pounding
against the ground. Emily steps out as the heavy rain starts
to strike her.
                                                            
 
EXT. OUTSIDE ON THE ROAD - NIGHT
                                                            
Emily starts cautiously walking towards the van.
                                                            
                       EMILY
      (Worried)
BRAD? BRAD? THIS IS NOT FUNNY
ANSWER ME! DON'T BE AN ASSHOLE!
BRAD?
                                                            
Suddenly footsteps are heard in the rain and as she turns to
see what it is the mysterious stranger grabs her.
                                                            
                                         CUT TO: BLACK SCREEN

                                         CUT TO: A CAR
PULLING UP AT A
CRIME SCENE
                                                            
A police car pulls up to a crime scene where other police
cars are already parked and officers are marking the area
off. Detective Smith and Detective Matthews emerge from
their vehicle.
                                                            
                       DETECTIVE MATTHEWS
Another beautiful day for crime
huh?
                                                            
                       DETECTIVE SMITH
Yeah it seems to be that way.
                                                            
Detective Smith and Matthews walk towards the crime scene
when an officer approaches them.
                                                            
                       OFFICER #1
Woah. Woah. Woah there. This is an
offical crime scene I can let you
two past.
                                                            
                       DETECTIVE SMITH
Its OK chief.
                                                            
Detective Smith and Detective Matthews pull out their
badges.
                                                            

9.

                       DETECTIVE SMITH
We're cops too.
                                                            
                       OFFICER #1
      (Embarrassed)
I'm sorry.
                                                            
                       DETECTIVE MATTHEWS
      (Laughing)
Calm down kid. It happens all the
time.
                                                            
                       DETECTIVE SMITH
So what's the deal here.
                                                            
Detective Smith and Detective Matthews begin to survey the
crime scene and signal for the officer to follow them.
                                                            
                       OFFICER #1
Umm. Umm. We are not too sure yet.
But it looks like a kidnapping.
                                                            
                       DETECTIVE SMITH
A kidnapping huh?
                                                            
                       OFFICER #1
Yes. Yes sir.
                                                            
                       DETECTIVE SMITH
Who did this car belong too?
                                                            
                       OFFICER #1
Our database shows that this
vehicle belong to a Mr. Bradley
Morgan. He is some kind of
Insurance Agent.
                                                            
                       DETECTIVE SMITH
      (Talking to
       himself)
Bradley Morgan.
                                                            
                       DETECTIVE MATTHEWS
Insurance Agent you say?
                                                            
                       OFFICER #1
Yes sir.
                                                            
                       DETECTIVE MATTHEWS
Was he alone?
                                                            

10.

                       OFFICER #1
We found a purse in the
passenger's seat so we believed a
female was with him at the time.
                                                            
                       DETECTIVE SMITH
A female?
                                                            
                       OFFICER #1
Yes sir. The driver's license says
Emily Rose on it. Apparently she
works for the bank as a teller.
                                                            
                       DETECTIVE MATTHEWS
Sounds like a real beaut to me.
                                                            
                       DETECTIVE SMITH
Hmmm...
                                                            
Detective Smith stops in his tracks.
                                                            
                       DETECTIVE SMITH
James you take this officer here
and go over to the rest of the
crew and see if you can find out
what they were doing before hand.
                                                            
                       DETECTIVE MATTHEWS
Sure thing Lou.
                                                            
Detective Matthews and the officer walk towards the other
cops and Detective walks further out into the grass. He
spots something in the grass. He approaches it and then
slips on some gloves and picks it up. It is the lead pipe
used before that hit Brad and it has some blood stain on it.
                                                            
                       DETECTIVE SMITH
      (Talking to
       himself)
Well. Well. Well.
                                                            
Detective Smith screams towards the others.
                                                            
                       DETECTIVE SMITH
HEY! HEY! COME OVER HERE I FOUND
SOMETHING!
                                                            
Detective Matthews and some other officers rush over to see.
Once they are there he holds it out and sticks it in an
evidence bag.
                                                            

11.

                       DETECTIVE SMITH
Looks like we found our weapon.
Did you find anything.
                                                            
                       DETECTIVE MATTHEWS
Yeah we found a recipet from a
restraunt called. Marquette. They
left at around 11:30 last night.
So from there to here we estimate
that they would have been abducted
between 12:00 to 1:00 AM.
                                                            
Detective walks in front of the vehicle and squats down and
begins to talk to himself again.
                                                            
                       DETECTIVE SMITH
Hmm. Mister Bradley Morgan and
Miss Emily Rose. Why would anyone
want to kidnap you. Hmm.
                                                            
While squating Detective Smith notices something. He goes to
open the drivers door. He sits in the driver seat. He then
pulls down the visor and notices a car stuck in the mirror.
He pulls it out and looks over it a couple of time then
proceeds to read it.
                                                            
                       DETECTIVE SMITH
      (Slowly)
Love is Evol?

                       MIKE
      (Struggling)
Get. Me. Out. Of this Goddamn

John wakes up and starts looking around, and he begins to
call out to the others.
                                                            
                       JOHN
      (Looking around)
Hey! Hey! Is everyone alright?

Mike yells out to the others.

Mike interrupts Grace and continues to struggle witht he
restraints.
                                                            
                       MIKE
      (Struggling)
Damn it Grace! Stop being
worthless and help get me out of

Robin is shocked by what she is hearing from Mike and
whispers to John.
                                                            
                       ROBIN
      (Whispering)

                       CUPID
John what are you doing with this
cow?
                                                            
John is shocked by the question and Robin is clearly
offended.
                                                            
                       JOHN
He..y. Hey man, cool it! Don't be
an A-hole.
                                                            
                       CUPID
An A-hole huh?
      (With a smirk)
Alright then time for your
question. What.Is her. Weight?!
                                                            
Cupid starts laughing hysterically, looks towards the empty
audience and presses a button on the remote that plays crowd
laughter over the speakers. Robin has become embarrassed
from the comments.
                                                            

21.

to press the button on the remote. He then presses the
button for crowd laughter.
                                                            
                       CUPID

gravitational pull as much as

looks at John.
                                                            
                       ROBIN
      (Sobbing)

                       MIKE
GOD. GOD DAMN YOU!
                                                            
                       CUPID

                       MIKE
      (FURIOUS AGAIN)

Cupid pauses and turns around with a smirk on his face.
                                                            
                       CUPID
      (Smirks)
Words of a true Romantic I see..
                                                            
Cupid then turns his attention back to Brad and Emily as he
continues to walk.

                       CUPID
      (Irritated)

Cupid lackadasically starts moving over to John and Robin.
                                                            
                       CUPID
You did good last time John but
Fatso seems to be holding you
back.
                                                            
Robin continues to cry from the comments made by Cupid.
                                                            
                       CUPID
      (Irritated)
If you don't stop that crying,
I'll stop if for you!
                                                            
Frightened Robin begins to fight back her tears and close
her mouth.
                                                            
                       JOHN
Hey that is enough, it's
completely unneccessary to keep
attacking her.
                                                            
Cupid still obviously irriated by Emily's interruption.
                                                            
                       CUPID

here we go...
      (Pause)
How long have you been married to
Grace?
                                                            
Mike countinues to struggle to escape. Grace face lights up
with hope as she believes he will easily know the answer to
the question.
                                                            

27.

                       MIKE
FOUR YEARS. WHO FUCKING CARES!
                                                            
Grace's face becomes gloomy and all hope is lost. Cupid
stares at Mike with a seriously and suddnely grabs him by
the hair and lifts up his hair.
                                                            
                       CUPID
What say you Grace? How long have
you been married to Mikey here?
                                                            
Grace has a completely broken expression as she knows the
outcome for them.
                                                            
                       GRACE
Seven.
                                                            
                       CUPID
What was that?
                                                            
Grace turns to Mike and is now mad.
                                                            
                       GRACE
SEVEN YEARS.WE HAVE BEEN SEVEN
YEARS. HOW THE FUCK COULD YOU NOT
KNOW THIS. YOU. YOU. YOU SORRY
PIECE OF SHIT!
                                                            
                       CUPID
      (Serious)
Thats strike three.
                                                            
Cupid lets Mike go and starts walking towards the backstage
area.
                                                            
                       MIKE
HOW FUCKING DARE YOU TALK TO ME
LIKE THAT. WHEN I GET OUT OF THIS
CHAIR I'LL FIX THAT DIRTY LITTLE
MOUTH OF YOURS!
                                                            
                       GRACE

KILLED US!
                                                            
                       MIKE
SHUT YOUR DAMN MOUTH YOU DUMB
WHORE. THAT PUSSY'S NOT GONNA DO
SHIT.
                                                            
Mike turns his attention to Cupid.
                                                            

28.

                       MIKE
COME BACK HERE FUCKER AND UNTIE ME
SO I CAN KICK YOUR ASS YOU LITTLE
BITCH!
                                                            
Cupid suddenly appears his back towards the contestants and
slowly starts walking backwards towards Mike.
                                                            
                       CUPID
You know it takes two to make
love. Yeah! They must love you and
you should love them. Thats what
makes true love. It is clear that
Grace loves you, so much so that
she is willing to stay with you
even after all the beatings and
verbal abuse. She is so in love
with a critten like you that she
has become lovesick. I think this
is dispicable, so I want to help
her. The only way to cure a
sickness is help from a doctor...
                                                            
                       MIKE
WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU TALKING
ABOUT?
                                                            
Cupid with his back still to the contestants.
                                                            
                       CUPID
I'm talking about curing Grace's
illness, with the help of my
friend.
                                                            
Cupid turns around revealing a bat with nails in and drives
it into Mike's head.
                                                            
                       CUPID
DOCTOR LOVE!
                                                            
Mike is dead. All the couples start screaming and freaking
out at the sight of Mike with the belt with nails in it
jammed into his skull.
                                                            
                       GRACE

MMMMMMMMMIIIIIIIIIIKKKKKKKEEEEEEEEE!!!!!
                                                            
                       BRAD
      (Shocked)
HOLY SHIT!
                                                            

29.

                       EMILY
OH MY GOD! OH MY GOD! OH MY GOD!
                                                            
                       JOHN
      (Freaking Out)
Je. Je. Jesus Christ! You killed
him! You. You really killed him!
                                                            
After a brief struggle Cupid finally removes the weapon from
Mike's head. And then turns his attention towards Grace, who
is screaming and in shock by what she just witnessed.
                                                            
                       CUPID
      (Trying to comfort
       Grace)
Shhhh... Shhh.... It's OK Grace.
You are free now. You are free
from your illness. Here...
      (Becoming more
       serious)
LET DOCTOR LOVE SET YOU FREE!
                                                            
Cupid strikes Grace in the face with the bat over and over
again killing her. CLOSE UP: Emily who is seated beside
Grace watches as she killed off and faints.
                                                            
                                         CUT TO: BLANK SCREEN
                                                            
 
INT. BRAD AND EMILY'S HOUSE - NIGHT
                                                            
                                         CUT TO: BRAD
CHECKING HIS E-MAIL
                                                            
Flashback: Brad is checking his e-mail, and Emily is getting
ready.
                                                            
                       BRAD
Hey baby have you seen my jacket?
                                                            
Emily walks out of the bathroom putting ear rings on.
                                                            
                       EMILY
      (Occupied)
Ummm. Have you checked the living
room?
                                                            
Brad done checking his e-mail turns around to Emily.
                                                            
                       BRAD
Yeah its not there.
                                                            
Emily is still occupied with her ear rings.
                                                            

30.

                       EMILY
Laundry room?
                                                            
                       BRAD
Yeah, its not there either.
                                                            
                       EMILY
Umm lets see. Garage?
                                                            
                       BRAD
      (Realizing)
Ga-ra-ge.
                                                            
Emily turns around to face him with a smile on her face.
                                                            
                       EMILY
Garage.
                                                            
                       BRAD
Ahh. Of course.
                                                            
Brad gets up and walks out of the room. Emily turns back to
the mirror and continues putting on her ear rings. Brad
yells from down stair.
                                                            
                       BRAD
      (Yelling)
Found it!
                                                            
                       EMILY
      (Yelling back)
Yeah! And if it was a snake it'd
bite your head off!
                                                            
Emily laughs and shakes her head as she finishes up putting
on her ear rings. A e-mail alert goes off on Brad's labtop.
Emily walks over to turn off the labtop and notices an
e-mail from a lady named Rachel with the topic of XOXO.
Curious by the topic Emily opens the e-mail. In the letter
Rachel states she misses him and can't wait to see him
Monday.The letter also goes on to express how Rachel wishes
Brad would just break up with his bitchy girlfriend Emily so
they could have alot more fun together.
                                                            
                       BRAD
      (Yelling)
Hey baby whats taking so long?
                                                            
Caught off guard by Brad's voice, Emily closes the labtop.
                                                            
                       EMILY
      (Nervously)
C. C. Coming!
                                                            

31.

Emily starts to walk out of the room as she gets to the
light switch she looks back at Brad's labtop jealous and
hurt by what she just read. She then turns out the light.
                                                            
                                         CUT TO: BLACK SCREEN
                                                            
 
INT. ROUND TWO - NIGHT
                                                            
                                         CUT TO: EMILY WAKING
UP
                                                            
Emily slowly wakes up to see Cupid atttaching some
equiptment on her. The couples have now been moved around
with Emily facing Brad and Robin facing John. Cupid suddenly
notices that Emily has finally awoken.
                                                            
                       CUPID
Well good morning sunshine. I was
worried to death about you.
Hahahaha.
                                                            
While Cupid is laughing, Emily spits in his face. Cupid
stops laughing and slowly wipes the spit from his face and
stares at it.
                                                            
                       CUPID
Ah. I see.
                                                            
Cupid then backhands Emily in the face sending Brad into a
tirate.
                                                            
                       BRAD
      (Furious)
DON'T YOU TOUCH HER. DON'T YOU
EVER TOUCH HER YOU SICK FUCK! I'LL
RIP YOUR OWN GODDAMN ARM OFF AND
BEAT THE SHIT OUT OF YOU WITH IT!
                                                            
                       CUPID
      (Smirking)
Oh really? You will snap my own
goddamn arm of and beat me with it
will you? Well how about this...
                                                            
Cupid grabs Brad's right hand and snaps his pinky. Brad
screams in agony.
                                                            
                       EMILY
      (Crying)
STOP IT! STOP IT! LEAVE HIM ALONE!
                                                            
Cupid stops what he is doing with a smile of accomplishment.
                                                            

32.

                       CUPID
OK enough of this toying around.
But before we begin round two I
would like to share with you a
little story, if I may?
                                                            
Cupid looks at the couples but they just stare in silence.
Cupid walks around the couple creepily as he shares his
story.
                                                            
                       CUPID
You see, in Greek mythology
Aphrodite, the Goddess of Love,
and Ares, the God of War had a
son. You can only imagine what
kind of parents these two must
have been, we are talking about
literally two polar opposites
trying to raise one child or
deity, whatever. But they have a
child named Eros. Young Eros also
known as "Cupid" became the god of
LOVE and PASSION. Well in this
tale Aphrodites becomes envious
and jealous of a mortal girl,
Pysche's beauty. It seems that
being Immortal and a Goddess
wasn't enough for her. Well
Aphrodite commands Cupid to shoot
poor Pysche with an arrow while
she is sleeping, so that when she
awakens Aphrodite would place a
vile creature in front of her for
her to fall in love with. Eros
reluctantly agress and so one
night he turns himself invisible,
a nice little trick I might add,
and sneaks into Psyche's bedroom.
As he prepares to scratch her with
his arrow, she suddenly awakens
and startles young Eros and he
ends up scratching himself with
his own arrow, thus falling madly
in love with Psyche.
      (Pauses)
Wonderful story so far right?
                                                            
The couples look around confused.
                                                            
                       EMILY
      (Screams)
WHAT DOES THIS HAVE TO DO WITH ANY
OF US?
                                                            

33.

                       CUPID
If you allow me to finish my story
you might find something
interesting relating to you all.
                                                            
Emily sits back quietly.
                                                            
                       CUPID
      (Continuing)
Well Aphrodites is none to pleased
about the outcome. She places a
curse on Psyche that keeps her
from meeting a suitable husband,
or any husband at that. As she
does this, it upsets Cupid
greatly, and he decides as long as
the curse stays on Psyche, he will
no longer shoot arrows. After
months or so of no, no, umm bow
chicka wow wow from the humans and
animals Aphrodites finally agrees
to Eros demands. Eros and Psyche
finally marry, lovely ceremony
too, Eros visits her every night
but demands that she never light
any lamps, since he does not want
her to know who he is till the
time is right. One day Eros allows
Psyche too meet up with her
jealous sisters, but WARNS her not
to listen to any arguments about
his identity. Well just like in
every freakin' story in the
history of course she doesn't
listen to him. The sisters
convience her to wait till Eros is
asleep and then light a lamp and
reveal who it is. And of course
she follows there orders, but when
she does it is revealed to her
that her husband is Eros! As she
begins to kiss him oil from the
lamp falls and burns Eros
horribly. And he flys away hurting
from the physical pain and the
pain of knowing she doubted him.
                                                            
The couples still look on puzzled.
                                                            
                       CUPID
      (Satisfied)
Well. What did you think?
                                                            

34.

                       JOHN
That's a nice story and everything
but what does that have to do with
us?
                                                            
                       CUPID
TRUST!
      (Pause)
It has everything to do with all
of you guys. If Psyche had trusted
Eros, then she would have never
hurt him.
      (Pause)
If you trust your partner, your
partner trust you then, with the
power of love you will be able to
win this game and survive! So lets
start the second round!
                                                            
Cupid presses the button for crowd applause.
                                                            
                       CUPID
      (Light Heartedly)
In this round all the contestants
are strapped up to a lie detector
and each person will be asked one
question if both member of the
couple answer the question
correctly then they will advanced
to the next round.
      (Serious)
However, if one person doesn't
lies then a buzzard will go off,
then the whole couple will face a
"Fatal" end. You will have to
trust that your lover will trust
you!
                                                            
Cupid looks around at the couples. Robin crying a little
with a frightened look on her face, while John tries to
console her. Brad is clearly still in pain, and Emily looks
worried.
                                                            
                       BRAD
      (With a sinister
       grin)
So. Shall we begin?
                                                            
                       CUPID
First up will be.
      (Pause)
Fatass. Oh. I mean Robin, Hahaha
my mistake.
                                                            

35.

Walks to Robin.
                                                            
                       CUPID
Well Robin you look as disgusting
as always.
                                                            
                       ROBIN
      (Still crying)
You are a PIG!
                                                            
                       CUPID
Ouch! You got me good. Hahaha.
Alright back to the game. So you
and John have been together for a
while now haven't you?
                                                            
                       ROBIN
      (Smiles at John)
5 wonderful years.
                                                            
                       CUPID
      (Suprised)
Wow. 5 years huh? Well OK then, in
your 5 years of dating.
      (Pause)
Has John fullfilled you sexually?
                                                            
John has a shocked and worried look on his face. Robin
starts crying neverously.
                                                            
                       CUPID
What's wrong? All I did was ask
you a simple question. Does your
lover, John, Satisfy you.
SEXUALLY?
                                                            
Robin still crying looks at John.
                                                            
                       ROBIN
      (Sobbing)
I'm sorry. I'm so, so, so sorry.
                                                            
John just sits quietly and shakes his head approvingly.
                                                            
                       ROBIN
      (Quietly)
No.
                                                            
                       CUPID
Come again? What was that I
couldn't hear you?
                                                            

36.

                       ROBIN
      (Louder)
No!
                                                            
                       CUPID
      (Smiles)
No? No what?
                                                            
                       ROBIN
NO! HE DOESN'T SATISFY ME
SEXUALLY! YOU HAPPY YOU ASSHOLE!
                                                            
Cupid smiles at her misery.
                                                            
                       CUPID
      (Satisfied)
I'm just peachy!
                                                            
Cupid walks to Emily and starts talking to her.
                                                            
                       CUPID
Wow. Crazy stuff huh. Who would
have thought.
                                                            
Emily just sits quietly with tears in her eyes not giving
Cupid the satisfaction of a response.
                                                            
                       CUPID
Alright next up is the ferocious
Emily!
      (Pause)
So how long have you and Mister
Knight in Shining Armor been
dating for?
                                                            
                       EMILY
      (Hesitantly)
Fo. Fou. Four years.
                                                            
                       CUPID
      (Shakes head
       approvingly)
Well congratulations. Four years
of happiness I'm sure.
                                                            
Emily doesn't say anything.
                                                            
                       CUPID
OK so Emily your question is a
pretty simple one. An easy one for
someone who has been dating this
guy for four years now.
      (Pause)
            (MORE)

37.

                       CUPID (cont'd)
Do you trust Brad?
                                                            
Brad's attention is caught by the question. Emily starts
huffing.
                                                            
                       CUPID
      (Instigating)
Speak clearly, I couldn't
understand you.
                                                            
                       EMILY
      (Shaking)
N. N. No.
                                                            
Cupid's intrest has been raised.
                                                            
                       CUPID
      (Happy)
Oh really? What did he do then?
                                                            
Emily refuses to answer his question and Cupid becomes
frustrated. Cupid grabs Emily by the throat.
                                                            
                       CUPID
      (Angerily)
I said. What did he do? You Bitch!
                                                            
                       BRAD
      (Interrupting)
I cheated on her!
                                                            
Cupid suprised that Brad answer turns his attention to Brad
now.
                                                            
                       CUPID
      (Curious)
You did what?
                                                            
                       BRAD
      (Shamefully)
A couple of years ago. I. I went
out to drink with a couple of my
friends at this bar. There was
this girl at the other end of the
bar named Katie. One thing led to
another and after a few drinks I
ended back at her place.
                                                            
                       CUPID
You had SEX with her?
                                                            

38.

                       BRAD
      (Snaps)
Yes! Yes I had a sex her. I
cheated on her once!
                                                            
                       EMILY
      (Under her breath)
liar.
                                                            
Cupid ends up hearing Emily and becomes delighted by what he
is hearing.
                                                            
                       CUPID
      (Delighted)
Well. Well. Well. I guess this
knight's armor isn't as shiney as
I first thought. You know I had a
completely different question for
you Bradley, but after hearing all
this I just can't help but change
the question. So here it goes.
      (Pause)
Brad, are you currently cheating
on Emily?
                                                            
Brad looks straight at Emily with a serious face.
                                                            
                       BRAD
      (Forthrightly)
NO.
                                                            
Emily is shocked by the answer. Cupid looks disappointed.
Brad stares at Emily.
                                                            
                       CUPID
      (Disappointed)
Well. I gotta say I'm a little let
down by how this went down. But oh
well it was fun while it lasted.
                                                            
Turns his attention to John.
                                                            
                       CUPID
John. Johnny. Johnny boy. It's
finally your turn.
                                                            
                       JOHN
      (Nervously)
I. I guess so.
                                                            
                       CUPID
John I gotta say you have been a
wonderful contestant. You don't
curse or threaten me. Which is
            (MORE)

39.

                       CUPID (cont'd)
really a breath of fresh air.
                                                            
                       JOHN
      (Worried)
I just don't like to lose my
temper. I believe you can get
through everything with a cool
head.
                                                            
                       CUPID
John you may be right. Or you may
be DEAD wrong.
      (Starts laughing)
Alright John we have saved the
best for last just for you since
you have been a wonderful
contestant. Are you ready for your
question?
                                                            
                       JOHN
I. I guess so.
                                                            
                       CUPID
Alright. All or nothing.
      (Pause)
John. Sweet John.
      (Pause)
Are you gay?
                                                            
Everyone is shocked and suprised to hear the question. John
starts sweat and twitching.
                                                            
                       JOHN
      (Skiddishly)
Wha. Wha. Wha. What?
                                                            
                       CUPID
Are you gay? You know a Homo. A
faggot. A phanny bandit. An Ass
pirate.
                                                            
                       JOHN
Of. Of. Of course I'm not.
                                                            
A buzzard goes off and John's face has a horrified
expression on it. Everyone looks at him stunned by what they
saw.
                                                            

40.

                       JOHN
      (Nervous)
I'm. I'm not gay. The machine is
clearly wrong. I mean how can I be
gay and date Robin.
                                                            
                       CUPID
Oh really?
                                                            
Cupid presses a button on the remote and a projector
projects an slide of John walking and talking with a guy.
                                                            
                       ROBIN
Is. Is that my brother Eric?
      (Pause)
What are you and Eric doing
together?
                                                            
                       JOHN
N. N. Nothing. See we are just
talking. No big deal.
                                                            
Cupid looks stone coldly at John and presses the button
again and its another slide of John and Eric, this time John
is gentley caressing Erics face. Robin's face lights up with
shock. Cupid presses the button again and the final slide
shows John and Eric kissing passionately. John starts
sweating heavily and is terrified.
                                                            
                       ROBIN
You're. You're gay?
      (Pause)
With my brother Eric!
                                                            
                       JOHN
      (Denile)
Of course not. Of course not!
                                                            
                       ROBIN
      (Mad)
You and my brother Eric!
                                                            
                       JOHN
      (Denile)
Its not what it looks like.
                                                            
                       ROBIN
      (Mad)
What? Did you trip and fall on his
penis.
                                                            

41.

                       JOHN
      (Denile)
Its. Its not like that. I'm not
gay. I'm not gay.
                                                            
                       CUPID
      (Comforting)
Well John it doesn't matter if
your gay.
      (Serious)
However this is goodbye for you
and Robin.
                                                            
Cupid walks to the back brings out a contraption. It looks
like two seperate motor shafts attached by barbwire.
                                                            
                       ROBIN
      (Crying)
You killed us. You fucking killed
us you faggot!
                                                            
                       JOHN
      (Angry)
Maybe if you knew how to pleasure
a man, I wouldn't have turned to
your brother you fat bitch!
                                                            
Cupid moves Robin and John back to back, as they continue to
argue.
                                                            
                       ROBIN
      (Yelling)
It's not my fault you like dick!
                                                            
                       JOHN
      (Yelling)
Shut the hell up you dumb cow,
maybe if you would put some of the
food down I would be attracted to
you!
                                                            
Cupid begins to wrap Robin and John in the barbwire. He
starts at their feet and works his way up. Robin is mumbling
nonsense and crying hysterically. After Cupid wraps the
barbwire around her neck, John tries to bargain with him.
                                                            
                       JOHN
      (Desperate)
I get you money. Do you want
money? I get you jewelry. I can
get you anything you want? Please,
Please you don't have to do this.
Please!
                                                            

42.

                       CUPID
      (Stops)
Unfortunately I do.
                                                            
                       JOHN
      (Desperate)
Please! Please! I'll do anything.
Anything. Just tell me what I have
to do to stop this. Please!
                                                            
Cupid stops for a brief seconds then begins to think.
                                                            
                       CUPID
Well there is one thing you could
do.
                                                            
                       JOHN
      (Relieved)
Anything. Anything. Just tell me
what to do and I'll do it.
                                                            
Cupid visciously grabs John by the jaw and squeezes.
                                                            
                       CUPID
      (Serious)
You could build a fucking time
machine and go back in time and
tell the damn truth!
                                                            
John's relief look turns back to terror. Cupid wraps the
barbwire through John's mouth. At one end is a motor with a
long gear shaft attached to the barbwire. The barbwire is
wrapped around John and Robin and the other end of the
barbwire is attached to another motor with a gear shaft on
the opposite end of the room.
                                                            
                       CUPID
Well Robin and John this is your
punishment. As you both can see
you two are wrapped in barbwire.
When I press this button the two
motors will begin turning in
opposite directions, tightening
and pulling against you from both
sides. With the force from the
motors the barbwires will cut into
you slowly yet powerfully.
Unfortunately this is the end.
Good bye.
                                                            
John and Robin scream in mercy. Cupid watches for a few
seconds before pressing the button. The motors turn on and
begin to turn the gear shafts wrapping the barbwire around

43.

it. The barbwire begins to tighten on John and Robin,
digging into there skin. John and Robin can be heard
screaming as blood begins to spill. The sounds of bone being
crushed is heard. Katie's head is ripped off and half of
John's head is cut off where Cupid placed the barbwire.
Emily has turns her head and closes her eyes as she begins
to sob. Brad watches in terror as there is nothing he can
do. Robin's head as it is cut off rolls in front of brad and
her eyes make contact with Brad's traumatizing him.
                                                            
 
INT. DETECTIVE SMITH'S OFFICE - DAY
                                                            
Detective Smith is sitting at his desk, when he hears a
knock on his door.
                                                            
                       DETECTIVE SMITH
Come on in.
                                                            
In walks Detective Matthews with some files and videos.
                                                            
                       DETECTIVE MATTHEWS
Hey Lou I dug up some information
on that "Love is Evol" thing.
                                                            
Detective Smith looks up interested.
                                                            
                       DETECTIVE SMITH
Oh really what you got for me.
                                                            
Detective Matthews walks over and puts in the video and
plays it. Its a video of a game show "Love is Evol".
Detective Smith looks confused.
                                                            
                       DETECTIVE SMITH
What's this shit?
                                                            
                       DETECTIVE MATTHEWS
It's some lousy game show that got
canned after a few episodes.
Wasn't really anything special.
                                                            
                       DETECTIVE SMITH
Go figure. Did you find any
connection between this and the
kidnapping.
                                                            
                       DETECTIVE MATTHEWS
None sir.
                                                            
                       DETECTIVE SMITH
Maybe it had something to do with
one of the crew members. Have you
contacted, the studio and asked
            (MORE)

44.

                       DETECTIVE SMITH (cont'd)
for a list of the former members?
                                                            
                       DETECTIVE MATTHEWS
Yeah Lou. I called them and they
sent me a list. I talked to
everybody on this list except for
a Charlie Love.
                                                            
                       DETECTIVE SMITH
      (Suspicious)
Charlie Love?
                                                            
                       DETECTIVE MATTHEWS
      (Laughing)
Yeah I know, right? Queer name. So
I called his mother who's in a
nursing home and she told me he
was on his honeymoon with his
wife, Amy.
                                                            
                       DETECTIVE SMITH
Charlie Love?
                                                            
                       DETECTIVE MATTHEWS
Yeah it looks like we are at a
dead end her Lou. What do you
think we should do next.
                                                            
                       DETECTIVE SMITH
Charlie Love?
                                                            
Detective Matthews looks confused.
                                                            
                       DETECTIVE SMITH
I swear I've heard that name
before.
                                                            
Detective Smith's phone rings and he picks it up.
                                                            
                       DETECTIVE SMITH
Detective Smith here... What's
that... Where at?... Alright we'll
be right there.
                                                            
Detective Smith hangs up the phone and stands up.
                                                            
                       DETECTIVE SMITH
They found a couple's dead body in
the wood.
                                                            
                       DETECTIVE MATTHEWS
Is it our missing couple?
                                                            

45.

                       DETECTIVE SMITH
No. But they did find the same
Love is Evil card on them.
                                                            
Detective Smith and Detective Matthews walk out of the
office.
                                                            
 
INT. PRE-REVELATION - NIGHT
                                                            
                       CUPID
Well the first cut is the deepest.
                                                            
Brad's eyes are wide with terror as he sits in silence.
Emily cries softly to herself as she watches Cupid play with
the corpses.
                                                            
                       EMILY
      (Crying)
Why are you doing this?
                                                            
Cupid stops immediately in his tracks.
                                                            
                       CUPID
Did you say. Why?
                                                            
                       EMILY
      (Crying)
Yes. Why would you do this us?
                                                            
                       CUPID
      (Smiles)
The answer is simple.
      (Pause)
Love.
                                                            
Emily still crying looks at Cupid confused by his answer.
                                                            
                       EMILY
Love?
                                                            
                       CUPID
Yes. LOVE!
                                                            
Cupid starts to wonder around the set looking for something.
                                                            
                       CUPID
Since you made it to the finals.
How about I show you all.
                                                            
Cupid runs to the backstage area. Emily turns her attention
to Brad who is in traumatized trance.
                                                            

46.

                       EMILY
Brad. Brad. Can you hear?
                                                            
Brad snaps out of the trance.
                                                            
                       BRAD
Yeah. Yeah. I can hear ya.
                                                            
                       EMILY
      (Concerned)
Are you OK baby?
                                                            
                       BRAD
      (Still a little
       ouf of it)
Yeah. Yeah. I'm fine.
                                                            
Brad lowers his head. Both Emily and Brad remain quiet.
                                                            
                       BRAD
I didn't know anything about that
e-mail.
                                                            
Emily is surprised by what she is hearing.
                                                            
                       BRAD
All rachel is to me is a co
worker, nothing more. If I had
known she sent me an e-mail like
that I would of cut all ties to
her at work.
                                                            
Brad looks up and into Emily eyes.
                                                            
                       BRAD
I never wanted to hurt you.
                                                            
Emily starts crying and smiling a little bit.
                                                            
                       EMILY
I. I believe you.
                                                            
Brad and Emily look up at each other and smile. Emily
continues to cry.
                                                            
Cupid yells from the back interrupting their moment.
                                                            
                       CUPID
      (Yelling)
Found it!
      (Pause)
Here we go.
                                                            

47.

A projector starts playing on the wall in front of Brad and
Emily. Its footage from a hand held video camera.
                                                            
 
INT. REVELATION - DAY
                                                            
                                         CUT TO: VIDEO
FOOTAGE
                                                            
We see a slightly younger Cupid holding a video camera
talking into a bathroom mirror.
                                                            
                       CUPID
Hi everybody. It's me Charlie. And
today is a very special day. As
many of you already know me and
Amy have been dating for 14
months, and in these 14 glorious
months I have fallen madly, head
over hill in love with her. Not to
sound corny or anything but Amy is
the wind beneath my wing. Hahaha.
And today...
                                                            
Cupid pulls out a ring and shows the camera.
                                                            
                       CUPID
Will you take a look at that
beauty. Yeah that bad boy cost a
pretty penny. Hahaha. Now this is
true love.
                                                            
Cupid shows off the ring to the camera.
                                                            
                       CUPID
Ok. So here's the deal, Amy should
be arriving home soon today and
she thinks I have to work late
today. So once she gets home, I'm
gonna hop out of the closet and
get down on one knee.
      (Knees down)
I'm gonna pull out this beautiful
ring.
      (Presents the ring)
And I'm gonna look into her
beautiful blue eyes and say. Amy
Williams, Will you do me the honor
of being my wife? Will you marry
me?
      (Stands back up
       and puts the ring
       away)
She will cry and smile and hug me
            (MORE)

48.

                       CUPID (cont'd)
and all that yadda yadda. And we
will begin our blissful life
together.
                                                            
A door is heard closing and foot steps are heard walking up
the steps.
                                                            
                       CUPID
Oh. Oh. That must be her.
                                                            
Cupid cracks the bathroom door to the bedroom and holds the
camera to the crack. In walks Amy.Cupid starts opening the
door more for the anticipation of jumping out and surprising
her, but suddenly in walks another guy. Amy and the guy
begin to make out.
                                                            
                       CUPID
      (Whispering)
What. The. Fuck?
                                                            
As the stranger begins to undress Amy, Cupid softly closes
the door. He takes the camera to the other side of the
bathroom and leaves it unknownigly recording still on the
counter. He walks towards the door to the bedroom, and turns
his back to the door and leans on it. Slowly falling to the
floor crying. Cupid remains sitting against the door with
his head between his arms crying.After a while he stops
crying but remains in the same position.He suddenly looks up
with tears still on his face but a deranged look on his
face. He gets up slowly and walks out the other bathroom
door. Cupid returns a few minutes later with a kitchen knife
in his hand.as he walks towards the bedroom door he drags
the blade on the counter.He stares at the door sinisterly
for a few moments. Cupid flings the door open revealing a
topless Amy on the top of the stranger.
                                                            
                       AMY
      (Surprised)
Charlie?!
                                                            
Cupid violently slams the door shut. Commotion along with
Amy and the strangers screams are heard. After a few seconds
of silents Cupid opens the door revealing a destroyed
bedroom along with a dead Amy and guy. Cupid walks into the
bathroom and calmly closes the door behind him. Cupid and
the knife are covered in blood. He stands silently for a few
seconds with no expression on his face. Cupid then begins to
smile slowly and start laughing. He then walks over to the
camera and turns it off.
                                                            
                                         CUT TO:BACK TO BRAD
AND EMILY
                                                            

49.

Brad and Emily sit in silence shocked by what they just
witnessed. Cupid walks back to the stage from the back.
                                                            
                       CUPID
      (Laughing)
Good times. Good. Times.
                                                            
                       EMILY
Oh my god.
                                                            
                       BRAD
      (Speechless)
I. I. I.
                                                            
                       CUPID
      (Laughing)
Whats wrong Bradley. Cat go your
tongue.
                                                            
                       BRAD
That was fucked up.
                                                            
                       CUPID
      (Smirks)
You think so?
                                                            
                       EMILY
      (Shocked)
You need some serious help.
                                                            
                       CUPID
      (Laughing)
You can't help me. There is no
help for the damned.
                                                            
                       EMILY
So your girlfriend cheated on you.
I don't get why you are doing this
to us.
                                                            
                       CUPID
      (Serious tone)
I am here to help couples such as
yourself re discover their true
love. So if a few people have to
die hear and there, then so be it.
It's all in the name of LOVE.
                                                            
Cupid pulls out the remote and presses the button that
signals the crowd applause over the speaker.
                                                            

50.

                       CUPID
AND NOW WE HAVE REACHED THE FINAL
ROUND. WILL BRAD AND EMILY FIND
TRUE LOVE. WILL THEY MAKE IT OUT
ALIVE. STAY TUNED!
                                                            
Both Emily and Brad look at each other concerned.
                                                            
 
INT. CRIME SCENE - WOODS - DAY
                                                            
                                         CUT TO: DETECTIVES
CAR PULLING UP
                                                            
The car pulls up nears the woods and down the hill is crime
scene will cops blocking everything off. Detective Smith and
Detective Matthews emerge from their car and look around.
                                                            
                       DETECTIVE MATTHEWS
So you think the same guy who
kidnapped the other couple murder
these two.
                                                            
                       DETECTIVE SMITH
It's hard to say right now. But
yeah it's starting to look that
way.
                                                            
Both Detective Smith and Detective Matthews flash their
badges and walk down the hill. Matthews turns to an officer
on the scene and talks to him.
                                                            
                       DETECTIVE MATTHEWS
How bad is it?
                                                            
                       OFFICER #2
Bad. Sir. Real Bad.
                                                            
Detective Matthew goes to pull off sheet, then quickly
covers it back up. Detective Matthews then covers his mouth
in disgust. Detective Smith who was behind him replaces
Detective Matthews in uncovering the body. It is the carved
up corpses of Robin and John.
                                                            
                       DETECTIVE SMITH
Who are these two unlucky
bastards?
                                                            
                       OFFICER #2
No idea sir. They had no ID on
them.
                                                            

51.

                       DETECTIVE SMITH
OK. Fingerprint them. And find out
who they are.
                                                            
Detective Smith and Detective Matthews walk off to talk and
discuss the case. While they are talking Officer #2 tries to
take their fingerprints but its freaked out by their
disfigurment, so he covers the body. While he tries to
fingerprint one of them the hand falls off and he screams in
terror.
                                                            
                       OFFICER #2
      (Screaming)
HOLY SHIT!
                                                            
Detective Smith and Detective Matthews turn around and
acknowledge him.
                                                            
                       DETECTIVE SMITH
Calm down already. They are dead.
They're not gonna bite.
                                                            
Officer #2 shakely continues to try and fingerprint the
corpses. Detective Matthews and Detective Smith continue
their conversation.
                                                            
                       DETECTIVE MATTHEWS
So what the hell could do
something like that?
                                                            
                       DETECTIVE SMITH
No telling. I've never seen a body
carved up like that.
                                                            
                       DETECTIVE MATTHEWS
Yeah this guy is one serious sick
fuck.
                                                            
                       DETECTIVE SMITH
OK. So what we got here is one
couple kidnapped, a card is left
behind. Another couple is found
dead, and once again another card
is left behind.
                                                            
                       DETECTIVE MATTHEWS
Yeah somehow this has something to
do with that game show "Love is
Evol".
                                                            

52.

                       DETECTIVE SMITH
Yeah but how? We need to put the
pieces of the puzzles together
before we find another dead...
                                                            
Detective Smith stops as he steps on something. As he slowly
removes his foot it is revealed to be a motel room key.
                                                            
                       DETECTIVE SMITH
What the hell?
                                                            
                       DETECTIVE MATTHEWS
Looks like a room key.
                                                            
                       DETECTIVE SMITH
Yeah.
                                                            
                       DETECTIVE MATTHEWS
Why a room key be out here?
                                                            
Detective Matthews looks around trying to find a motel in
sight.
                                                            
                       DETECTIVE SMITH
Maybe. Maybe our guy left it out
here for us to find.
                                                            
Detective Smith calls over Officer #2.
                                                            
                       DETECTIVE SMITH
Have you ever heard of the.
                                                            
Reads the motel's name off the key.
                                                            
                       DETECTIVE SMITH
Lovebug. Motel?
                                                            
                       OFFICER #2
The Lovebug?
                                                            
                       DETECTIVE SMITH
Yeah. The Lovebug.
                                                            
                       OFFICER #2
Yes sir. Its about fifteen miles
down the road on the left. Why?
                                                            
                       DETECTIVE SMITH
Alright listen to me. I want all
patrol cars sent to The Lovebug
Motel. Room.
                                                            
Detective Smith reads from the key again.
                                                            

53.

                       DETECTIVE SMITH
Room 109.
                                                            
                       OFFICER #2

But! If she says no, then she will
be set free and you will be
killed.
                                                            
                       BRAD
      (Serious)
I understand.
                                                            
                       CUPID
      (Smirks)

acknowlging his presumed death.

                       BRAD
      (Smiles)
