                  MEDIUM MALENKOV TO INCLUDE WILSON

                 The train roars past and, with a mighty surge, WILSON
                 pushes MALENKOV into the side of the passing train.
                 MALENKOV’s throat is caught on a hook and he is
                 carried off by the train into the darkness like a dead and
                 broken doll.

                             CLOSE UP MALENKOV

                 MALENKOV’s face, bulging in the surprise of death as he
                 vibrates hanging on the side of the speeding train.

                                CLOSE UP TEUFEL

                 TEUFEL, assessing the situation, is furious, and rushes
                 to the car.

                                  FULL WILSON
                 WILSON runs toward the car. The DRIVER peels out into
                 the distance making good TEUFEL’s escape, as well as her
                 continuing threat. WILSON looks around.

                                     SOUND

                           The train rattles off into the dark,
                                  then SILENCE

                                 CLOSE WILSON

             Wilson: Anna!

                                  FULL WILSON
                 WILSON cuts across the shadows of the empty train tracks.

             Wilson: Anna!

                 WILSON searches. ANNA is not in sight.
