Flowing Project 2

THEME:
Searching for the truth and the reasons behind human actions/ leads to/ finding answers that you don’t expect or comprehend
PREMISE:
A girl, Lucy, cover in blood sits at a police station and she recounts her horrible experienced of getting kidnapped. She tells the detective, Becker, the events of what happened in reverse order starting with her escape. As she goes back through the events we see all the horrible things she went through, but when we get to how she was kidnapped her story becomes vague and shows some inconsistencies. When Becker pressures her and point out these inconsistencies, Lucy spills the truth behind the kidnapping.
PROGRAM:
Lucy is expected to follow the program of police station and answer all the questions detective Becker has for her. She is expected to tell the truth because she is being treated as a victim and so there would be no reason to lie. She is being questioned in Becker’s office. When Becker begins to see some loose ends in her story, the program changes of one of a criminal and she begins to interrogate Lucy and forces answers out of her. Lucy also follows the program of being a kidnapped person, who has to be obedient, fearful, and submissive, because she is so vulnerable. At the same time, she is constantly searching for opportunities for escape.
TREATMENT:
Lucy sits in the office of an Upper Brookville police station covered in blood and her dress ripped apart. Detective Becker walks into the room and places a blanket over her shoulders and rubs her. She sits down in front of her and tries to get her to talk about what happened from the start. Lucy, who is still traumatized and in near hysterics, breaks down sobbing. It takes a while to calm her, but detective Becky gets her to talk about the last thing she remembers and goes back from there.
Lucy stands over two men lying on the ground next to pools of blood holding a quivering baseball bat in her hand. She drops the bat and runs out of the house as fast as she can. Detective Becker asks how she got in that situation and Lucy begins to talk.
Lucy is tied to a chair with a gag in her mouth. One of the men, the bigger of the two, drags in a mattress into the room followed by a skinnier man who was arguing with him. The man drops the mattress and blood stains are revealed on it. Lucy begins to squirm vigorously and the skinny man objects. The bigger man disregards the objections and unties Lucy and gets on top of her on the mattress. After some time struggling, the skinny man grabs a knife and stabs the bigger man repeatedly. Skinny man drops the knife and proceeds to help her up and they get ready to escape, when the skinny man gets stabbed by the big man who just got up. Lucy grabs the baseball bat that was leaning next to the chair and beats the big man.
Detective Becker asks what she remembers before that and Lucy says that all she can remember is being at Alisa’s masquerade party, and then waking up in the house. Detective Becker senses that she is hiding something and pressures her to talk. Becker states that she was seen dancing and talking with the skinnier man, before she had gone missing. Becker also presents a photo of Alisa that was found at the crime scene. Lucy breaks down and talks…
She was at Alisa’s party, who she is very jealous of, and was about to leave her house when a skinny young man asked her who Alisa was. Lucy, who was upset at all the attention Alisa was getting, claimed to be Alisa. The skinny man introduced himself as Calvin. The two talked and dances and then the skinny man suggested that they get out of there. Lucy gets drugged unconscious and wakes up in a trunk. The door opens and she see Calvin and big man. The big man was yelling at the Calvin for grabbing the wrong girl. Lucy wakes up in the house to see the two men arguing over if they should kill her or not. The big man grabs a baseball bat and puts it next her face as if he was aiming it there. He then puts the bat down next to her and leaves the room with the Calvin following.
BEHAVIORAL COMPOSITES:
1) Everyone at the party was now looking at Alisa who was at the center of the room with a huge cake. Everyone in the massive room was singing happy birthday for Alisa and smiling, everyone except Lucy. Lucy finishes her drink glaring at Alisa and storms out of the room her face tinted scarlet.
2) As the big man was ripping apart Lucy’s dress and she screaming in terror, Calvin’s fists clenched. Eventually Lucy’s struggling slowed down and she was just staring at him. Blood rushed to his head, and he broke the chair he was grasping on to. Calvin grabbed the knife on the table and stabbed with fury.
3) Detective Becker’s expression kindness and comfort suddenly disappeared. Her face hardened almost instantly and her eyes beamed down on Lucy. Her voice was cold and assertive when she said, “I know you’re not telling me everything.”
