The ocean is calm.

Too calm.

Music drifts from the resort terrace, mixing with laughter and the soft crash of waves.

Then—

A woman screams.

The music seems to disappear beneath the sound.

Dinesha stumbles backward, frightened.

Mike stands between her and the doorway.

MIKE

Just listen to me.

DINESHA

Move away from me.

Mike steps closer.

Dinesha steps back.

MIKE

I’ll pay you. Whatever you want.

DINESHA

I don’t want your money.

She turns toward the door.

Mike moves quickly and blocks her.

DINESHA

LET ME GO!

Her voice echoes through the villa.

Anthony hears the scream.

He stops.

For a moment, he doesn’t understand what he’s hearing.

DINESHA

HELP ME!

Anthony runs toward the room.

The door swings open.

ANTHONY

Mike.

MIKE

Anthony, this isn’t—

ANTHONY

What did you do?

Anthony sees Dinesha pressed against the far side of the room.

Mike stands between her and the exit.

ANTHONY

Get away from her.

Mike doesn’t move.

ANTHONY

I said get away from her.

Mike finally steps back.

But it is too late.

Anthony loses control.

The confrontation turns violent.

A chair falls.

A glass shatters against the floor.

Dinesha backs away.

DINESHA

Anthony! Stop!

Anthony finally stops.

A first-aid kit sits open on the table.

Mike receives medical attention.

No one speaks to him.

Wayne looks from one person to another.

WAYNE

What happened here?

Nobody answers immediately.

DINESHA

Mike wouldn’t let me leave.

WAYNE

What?

DINESHA

He offered me money.

Wayne looks at Mike.

WAYNE

Tell me she’s wrong.

Mike says nothing.

The family sits together.

Nobody eats.

Plates remain untouched.

The same dinner that was supposed to celebrate their first night in Turks now sits cold on the table.

WAYNE

We came here to spend time together.

Nobody answers.

WAYNE’S WIFE

We can’t pretend this didn’t happen.

Dinesha looks toward the window.

DINESHA

I just wanted tonight to be normal.

The family sits in uncomfortable silence.

Then—

A PHONE STARTS RINGING.

Everyone looks toward the sound.

It is Mike’s phone.

Mike slowly reaches for it.

He looks at the screen.

His expression changes.

WAYNE

Who is it?

Mike doesn’t answer.

The ringing suddenly stops.

Another notification appears.

Mike reads the message.

His hands begin to shake.

ANTHONY

Mike… who’s calling?

Mike slowly looks at the entire family.

For the first time that night, he looks genuinely frightened.

MIKE

We need to leave Turks.

WAYNE

Why?

Mike looks back at the phone.

MIKE

Because someone knows what happened tonight.

Everyone freezes.

Outside, the waves continue crashing against the shore.

And somewhere beyond the villa—

A SHADOW MOVES PAST THE WINDOW.
