SPLIT (2016)

CHAPTER 6: THE LADY

INTR. DARK DINGY BASEMENT PRISON

Through a tiny crack in the wall, the girls saw what they think is a woman outside where they are being held. But as they quickly learn it's not a woman, rather one of Kevin's other personalities, who appears to be a British woman.

"He's back. There's a lady outside." Claire murmured peeking through the hole.

"Dennis, admit what you've done. I'm getting frightened. I thought that you had this under control. Please tell me it's not too late." Patricia's voice (Kevin's other personality) is heard whispering to Dennis (also Kevin's personality) sounding upset to him due to his bad temper and bad behaviour towards the girls (prisoners).

"The food is waiting. Is she in that room?" Patricia continue pointing to the steel locked door where the girls are being kept.

"We're here! Help us! We're in here!" the girls shouted desperately banging the door to get the attention of the woman, thinking that it will help them to get out of there.

"No, don't go in there! Don't go in there!" Dennis warned.

The door open revealing Kevin dressed in woman's clothes smiling as she assessed the girls shocked reaction, the girl's stood silent wearing a puzzled look in their faces clueless in what is going on.

"Don't worry. I'll talk to him." she speaks calmly to the girls.

"He listens to me. He's not well." she continued referring to Dennis (Kevins other personality), the girls reaction were getting more puzzled.

"He knows what you're here for. He's not allowed to touch you. He knows that." her voice is reasurring almost telling them that everything will be fine. On the other hand, the girls are still rooted to their place didn't dare to speak, seconds passed, as she nodded to their direction and slowly closed the door leaving the girls frightened faces.

Five hours passed...

The girls are now in crouch position whispering to one another,

"He's just trying to scare us." Claire stated looking bothered.

"He was having a full conversation with himself." Marsia speaks releaving the scene where they caught Kevin talking to himself dressed in a woman.

"What was that line about? "The food is waiting." Marsia added clearly clueless.

"Does everyone get how wacked this is and that we need to get out of here now?" Claire demanded all pissed, the light suddenly light up and the door swung open revealing again Kevin's persona. Dennis with a bucket of cleaning materials hurriedly inspect the bathroom.

"Please, keep your area neat." he warned to both of them.

"The bathroom, it's unacceptable." he added disgustingly as he points towards the bathroom.

"To make it easy, I've color-coded these. Use the blue bottle for the floor and the pink bottle for the ceramic surfaces." he instructed before heaving a sigh, carrying the cleaning material he positioned it the door expecting them to pick it up, Casey in her sitting position begin to stand picked the bucket and head inside the bathroom, not wanting Dennis to get mad, the two other girls also comply following Casey inside the bathroom.

"Uh... Patricia has reminded me that I was sent to get you for a reason. That you are sacred food. And I promise not to bother you again." he informed the girls frowning as he finally took a step back and close the door.

"Maybe he has a dog or something. You think he's gonna feed us to his dogs?" Marsia said her voice is dripping with fear, Claire and Casey were just silent with their frightened looks.
