INT. INTERROGATION ROOM -DAY JOHNNY (20) sits at a table. Across from him sit his INTERROGATOR (male, 40’s). The man is wearing a black suit, white shirt, and black tie. The interrogator has a folder open in front of him. He speaks with Johnny, who is very scared, confused, seemingly regretful. Also in the room, an ASSISTANT (male, mid 30’s) is dressed in a suit as well. He stands at a distance.
JOHNNY I swear I never thought this would happen. Neither of us had any intent to hurt anyone; it was all a joke...
EXT. WOODS FLASHBACK -DAY Johnny and his friend MATT (20’s) are both on a hiking trip, they joke around and horseplay. Matt points at the cabin hidden by the trees and Johnny eyes widen with interest. END FLASHBACK: INTERRIGATOR (MR. GREEN) Well, I don’t see how arson is a joke. I hope you understand the severity of this all and how much trouble you’re in now. This is a crime that’s punishable by law. You need to tell me what you know, kid.
JOHNNY (sobbing and shaking) I know and that’s why I’m so sorry... (regretful and broken) But you have to believe me. We thought that cabin was empty; No one was there at the time, we would have never hurt anyone!

MATT I don't know who these people are I never saw, or wanted to harm, anyone. Can I please talk to a lawyer? INT.INTERROGATION ROOM(1)-DAY - CONTINUOUS The interrogator slams his hand on the table causing a LOUD BANG. He’s fed up and it’s very apparent. INTERRIGATOR (MR.GREEN) (aggressively) Fine! You want to act stupid, huh?I do this for a living. This may be an unfamiliar case to me, but I’m sure of one thing; you do know who these bodies belong to and you better start talking, kid. (pointing at Johnny) Now breath and start over. Tell me what happened again... INT. INTERROGATION ROOM(2)-DAY MATT is being questioned. INTERRIGATOR (quietly) From the beginning. MATT I told you everything I know. I’m not hiding anything, Officer! INTERRIGATOR Officer!? INT.INTERROGATOR ROOM(1)-DAY INTERRIGATOR (MR.GREEN) I’m not a Police Officer, kid. I’m Mr. Green. FBI. This is the Special Case Unit.

JOHNNY What?! FBI? I’m so done. Visibly destroyed, he wipes the tears from his eyes. JOHNNY (CONT) Okay, well, this is what happened. I was with Matt that noon on a Hiking trip in the Green River Forest. The camera fades into Johnny and Matt in the woods. EXT. WOODS -DAY Hiking in the forest, Matt and Johnny stand in the middle of the woods. Matt points to a cabin. It appears to be abandoned; the trees and ivy have completely covered it. JOHNNY (with wide eyes) Look at that! Johnny looks over at Matt. JOHNNY (CONT) Dude lets check it out. MATT Alright, lets go. The two go near the cabin. They go around back to check the outside first. They come across a door and Johnny checks it, but it’s locked. Matt looks through the window. MATT It’s dark. I can’t see anything, man. JOHNNY Lets burn it, dude. It’s abandoned, no one will miss it. MATT Hell yeah, man. This is so awesome. MATT (CONT'D) You don’t think the rest of the woods will get lit, do ya? JOHNNY Nah, probably not, but who cares. Set it and let it.

JOHNNY laughs hysterically. MATT Alright, man. I’ll get some dry sticks. They go on collecting the sticks. Once they’ve gathered enough, they start the fire and run away quickly. INT. INT.INTERROGATION ROOM(1)-DAY Johnny tells his story; he’s much more calm and seems sincere. JOHNNY And so I heard my dad call me downstairs. That’s when you guys came and picked me up. It was the next day. That’s all I know, I swear. INT. INTERROGATION ROON(2)-DAY MATT one last thing sir, my heart goes to the families of the victims, but who are they and why were they locked inside an abandoned cabin in the woods?! ... INT. INTERROGATION ROOM(1)-DAY INTERRIGATOR (MR.GREEN) I was hoping you would tell me that. Mr. Green opens his file and LOOK inside The camera zooms in on the photos revealing that the bodies aren’t human. They’re the burned bodies of ALIENS. CUT TO BLACK:
