(Tom lays on floor for a long period of time and various camera angles are used to focus on specific enigma codes which then flashbacks of previous events occur - events including Tom gambling with other players)

Flashback 1 
Setting - Inside of the gambling facility where a poker game is taking place


(Tom is playing poker around a table with other players and is holding a hand of cards. Tom places bet in the middle of the table..)

Tom: All in.

Scene 1 of 2
Setting - Back to the original setting of the back alley

Tom: (opens eyes while laying still on floor)

The End

-We have purposely included very little dialogue in the script as this arouses curiosity and suspicion towards the story and the characters because without gaining any information from the dialogue, we as an audience have to work out what's going on in the story which matches the context of a thriller.
-We have also included flashbacks in the story to manipulate the narrative structure which also matches the context of a thriller because this creates an effect of mystery and tension throughout the story.
