MONDAY

EXT.SCENE 1: Remote Scottish highlands road.

The rugged rural landscape of a Loch, a Glen, and a Munro in the near distance.

A very old bus/coach is seen during opening credits winding its way along a deserted single-track road noisily struggling to reach a remote stop.

The bus eventually reaches a remote village store GLEN MAREE GENERAL STORE AND POST OFFICE where it stops, and the driver turns off the engine.

DRIVER (Cammy) stretches and yawns.

Staggers to his feet to convey he has been in the seated position for a good few hours.

The driver notices that there are only two people on board – a young couple asleep in each other's arms towards the rear section.

CAMMY: (Shouts) Glen Maree - End of the line. All ashore that's going ashore.

(The young couple does not respond so the driver edges his way to where they are and rouses the male by poking him in the shoulders area.)

(STEVIE is Denim clad man in his late-thirties looks like he hasn't shaved in several days. His eyes flicker open and he yawns as he looks around him.)

STEVIE: (In New Zealand accent) Where are we?

CAMMY: Glen Maree Sir – the end of the line.

STEVIE: Oh okay – be with you in a moment – Cassie... honey...
