White Mask

Dale: No sign of Rose. What's with the women in this family?

Gloria: Where's John?! Where's Johnny!!

Dale: John's not here. He went back to New York.

Gloria: Find John. He's the only one-- The only one who can talk to her-- Talk her out of it.

Dale: I don't understand. Talk her out of what? The front door of the mansion explodes open-- Rose busts through the door and stumbles to the floor, exhausted, terrified.

Dale: Rose?!

Rose: Close the door!

Dale: What happened?

Rose: CLOSE THE DOOR!!! Father Matos runs over and shuts the huge doors. Chaos! Billie and Kane make their way into the main hall.

Kane: What's going on? 47.

Rose: We have to go. We have to leave. Now!!!

(weakly)

Gloria: We can't. She won't let us leave. Dale looks back to Rose.

Dale: Tell us what happened?

Rose: He's coming.

Kane: Who? A thunderous BANG hits the front door. The family jumps in shock. Another loud bang rocks the door.

Kane: What the hell is that? The loud grinding of something against the wood drags along the door... It extends beyond the door -- across the stone of the house -- alone the long stone walls. Even Gloria sits up. Her over dramatic stupor seems to have faded away. She joins the family as they huddle together, their eyes following the menacing sound across the room. The sound finally reaches one of the windows. The Halorans get to see their tormentor for the first time... White Mask drags the axe across the window.

Billie: Oh God!

Dale: Oh shit! White Mask lowers the axe and puts its DISGUSTING GLOVED HAND to the glass, drumming its fingers. It's not even trying to break through yet, just having fun.

Dale: Tell me you have a gun in the house.

Gloria: My bedroom, the study and the cellar. 48.
