AT ROSÈ'S CONDO

As the sun rises, we hear Rosè's ALARM buzz...

Rosè awakens groggily, reaches over to the nightstand to turn off her alarm. Her hand fumbles to find it. It's not there.

Confused, she sits up to see KIM JAE WOOK holding the alarm clock out of her reach. A ROOM FULL OF AGENTS IN SWAT GEAR stand around her bed, all pointing guns at her.

Jae Wook turns off the alarm.

"Good morning, Ms. Park." (then) "Where is she?"

"Who?"

"Kim Jisoo."

Rosè moves out from her bedroom and sits on the couch in shock as Jae Wook drops a photograph on the coffee table. Rosè looks uncomfortably at the big headed guy, Dong Seok...

"This one was from Jeju Island."

Jae wook shown a PHOTO OF A DEAD WOMAN

"She disappeared on a diving trip... on the Island." Jae Wook drops other photographs in front of Rosè...

"This one died in a parachuting accident. Only she wasn't wearing a parachute. And this one somehow fell off a moving train."

"I don't understand..." She looks at the photos, horrified, confused.

"The person you helped tonight has been posing as a federal agent in order to lure innocent civilians --women --into helping her pull off various national security breaches."

"What sort of "breaches?"

"I can't go into it other than to say she usually targets women who are, shall we say, vulnerable."

"She gets a lot of women over the internet."

Rosè quickly responded "Well, I don't do that."

"Miss Park. We need you to tell us where she is."

"I have no idea. I just met her tonight."

"Then why did you take her to the hospital?"

"She fell on my car. What was I supposed to do, leave her there?"

"No, you were supposed to call the police."

"I tried. Look, I have no idea who she is or where she is. But I'm pretty sure that you're not allowed to just barge into someone's house and--"

"Wake up, Miss Park, this is Seoul. I'm allowed to do whatever is necessary to protect its citizens. Now, did she say anything that could be helpful?"

"We're gonna be dead for longer than we're gonna be alive." The agents look at each other.

"She also said that she was an undercover agent on a highly sensitive mission."

"And you believed that bullshit?"

"No, of course not." She sits there feeling like an idiot now.

"Miss Park, you were targeted. That means she's not going to leave you alone. Which means you now need protection."

Rosè hugs herself. Jesus. The news keeps getting worse.

"I think the best thing for us to do right now would be to hand you over to the local police, let them keep an eye on you."

They all step out from the condo and now Rosè is sitting in the backseat. Dong Seok drives while Jae Wook sits shotgun.
