                          LANDWEHR CANAL—NIGHT

                  MEDIUM TWO-SHOT ANNA AND MALENKOV

                 MALENKOV stoops, kneels next to ANNA’s body, and
                 rummages through ANNA’s pockets. The pills spill out.
                 He pulls her papers and flips through the booklet.

                        CLOSE UP INSERT ANNA’S PAPERS

                 ANNA’s papers reveal an official photo and her name:
                 ANNA EISENSTEIN.
                  MEDIUM TWO-SHOT ANNA AND MALENKOV

                 MALENKOV shrugs. ANNA moans. He begins to roll the
                 unconscious girl over the lip of the canal. A voice calls out.

                 MONIKA, bicycle up. MALENKOV drops ANNA’s pa-
                 pers. GUNTHER and MONIKA dismount. MONIKA
                 kneels next to ANNA. GUNTHER faces the rising
                 MALENKOV.

                              CLOSE UP GUNTHER

             Gunther: Hey!
                               CLOSE UP MONIKA
