Script 2- Taxi driver

EXT.STREET.NIGHT

DANNI walking casually along the street; texting her friend

Her phone then rings

                DANNI

Oh Hey VICKY how are you (VICKY talks back) cool, yeah I will see you tonight then. (VICKY talks) Yeah sure, bye.

DANNI puts her hand out for a taxi, one pulls up, she get in to the taxi.

INT.TAXI.NIGHT

                TAXI DRIVER

           Hello darling, where can I take (itches nose) you?

                DANNI

Hey, can you take me to the Oval station please; it is just about 30 minutes away.

                TAXI DRIVER

           Your wish is my command (smirks)

                DANNI

           Yeah sure whatever thanks

DANNI gets her phone out and begins texting; the TAXI DRIVER is looking at DANNI in the taxi mirror and is smirking to himself.

                DANNI

Hey, excuse me; you just missed the turning to get to the tube station

     TAXI DRIVER

Oh did I now, well I’m very sorry dear but there is a diversion, we will have to go the long way now.

TAXI DRIVER cackles to himself, but DANNI hears him laughing

               

DANNI

(Worried expression on her face) Are you sure there is a diversion, wouldn’t there be a sign saying diversion or something?

     TAXI DRIVER

Clever one you are, what a shame you will not be waking up for tomorrow. Your friends will miss you very much.

TAXI DRIVER starts to drive incredibly fast. DANNI starts to panic

                DANNI

(Screaming) Let me out, what the hell is up with you? Your driving way to fast, what if we crash? Let me out now!

DANNI tries to open the taxi door but it is locked. The TAXI DRIVER looks pleased with himself, and a smile appears on his face.

TAXI DRIVER

Don’t worry DANNI, there is no need to try and escape. There is no way out!

TAXI DRIVER laughs manically and DANNI screams and kicks at the door of the taxi and bangs on the window with her fist.

                DANNI

           Where are you taking me, we are not even in London anymore!

                TAXI DRIVER

           I’m taking you to the edge of this cliff

TAXI DRIVER laughs so much he starts spluttering

DANNI chucks herself against the taxi door in desperate need to get out, she then burst out crying

In the distance is a cliff edge leading off into the sea

The TAXI DRIVER drives over the edge and DANNI screams

There is an explosion

          

This is my second script. I applied all of the same rules as I used for my first script. The font is in courier new because this is a font that is very easy to read.
I also added a cliff hanger to this script and I thought about each of the characters carefully.
Danni, is a very normal city girl who is always on her phone and the taxi driver is slightly mad and drives over the edge of the cliff. This would be the opening scene for the TV show or film. I decided that the taxi driver drives the taxi over the cliff because this is more exciting then Danni escaping from the taxi.
