1.1

The scene is a dark police interrogation room where Det. Dominuco and Det. #2 are interrogating Ross Schultz.

Det. D: Listen, you little prick, I don't give two shits how mean your parents were.

Or how much the other boys pick on you at school. Or whatever the fuck your problem is. I do, however, care about your family.

Ross: My family? What's wrong? Has something happened to them? Are they OK?

Det. D: Oh, fuck you. Do you believe this asshole? Wants us to think he had nothing to do with the dead bodies in house.

Det. #2: Hey, if I had been shooting heroin all day I might not remember my name. Kid, what's your name? Do you know?

Ross: Ross Schultz ... I ... I ... don't know about no heroin.

Det. D: Really? Then how do you explain this (puts a bag of drugs and needles on the table)?

Ross: That's not mine!

Det. #2: Are you sure, asshole, because we found in your bedroom, under your bed.

Det. D: What are you gonna tell us that gremlins put it there?

Ross: This is bullshit! My dad's a lawyer I know my rights you can't search my room without a warrant!

Det. #2: You mean was.

Ross: What?!

Det #2: Your dad was a lawyer, until you killed him, thus making your home a crime scene.

Ross: (begins to daze out)

Det. D: (slams his hand on the table, and Ross once again becomes alert) What are you, deaf?! You killed your father! And your Mother! And five year-old sister!

Ross: What!? No!

Det. #2: Takes a real man to slice up a little girl. Did it make you feel strong snapping her arm as she tried to runway?!

Ross: No, man, no. I didn't do that. I'd never. I love my family.

Det. D: Ok. Kid, calm down. If you're innocent, just tell us where you were earlier today.

Ross: I ... I ... was ... at school. Yeah, that's right I had a history test.

Det. D: Your history teacher is Mr. Orsucci, right?

Ross: Yeah! That's right.

Det. D: We spoke to him today. He's a nice guy. Had a lot to say about you.
