Optional cut-aways

If the above opening scene is too short then below is the optional addition to the script, starting after the movie title instead of the opening credits. Below are a series of various flashbacks which can be used in addition to the opening credits, either all or some of them. The opening credits will appear on a black screen, a flashback will show, then the credits again and so on or the credits appearing during these shots. Two sets of shots; one for Riley showing parts of her path to madness and one for Detective Lax showing clues and an insight to his life

SHOTS FOR RILEY
