The Jealous Game
THE JEALOUS GAME
FADE IN — TURKS

The ocean is black beneath the moonlight. Music drifts from the luxury hotel terrace while guests laugh and glasses quietly clink.

But near the entrance, Shayla stands completely still.

Her eyes are locked on Anthony. And Anthony isn’t looking at her.

He’s looking at Dinisha.

THE DECISION

Shayla watches Anthony place his hand gently on Dinisha’s shoulder.

Her expression changes.

Jealousy burns across her face.

That is the moment Shayla makes a decision.

A dangerous one.

THE PHONE CALL

Shayla slowly pulls out her phone and calls someone.

SHAYLA

I need you here.

BOYFRIEND

Where?

SHAYLA

Turks.

A long silence follows.

SHAYLA

Tonight. And bring Kai.

THE PALO OUTFIT

Shayla sends the hotel location to her boyfriend.

Then she sends one final message.

SHAYLA

Wear the Palo outfit.

The message is seen.

No reply.

Shayla puts her phone away and looks toward Anthony again.

THE ARRIVAL

Later that night, a vehicle pulls up outside the hotel.

Kai steps out first.

Behind him is a mysterious man dressed in the strange Palo outfit, his face completely hidden.

Kai looks up at him, confused.

KAI

Why are you wearing that?

BOYFRIEND

Your mom asked me to.

ANTHONY SEES KAI

Anthony is laughing with Dinisha when his smile suddenly disappears.

He sees Kai standing beside a stranger.

ANTHONY

Kai?

Anthony immediately walks toward his son.

Then he sees the hidden face.

His expression turns dark.

ANTHONY

Who is that?

SHAYLA’S BOYFRIEND

Shayla enters the lobby.

She sees Anthony.

Instead of explaining anything, she walks straight toward the mysterious man and wraps both arms around him.

Anthony watches.

His jaw tightens.

ANTHONY

Shayla.

SHAYLA

What?

THE CONFESSION
ANTHONY

Why is my son with this man?

SHAYLA

Because I brought him.

ANTHONY

You brought him here with some stranger?

SHAYLA

He’s not a stranger to me.

Anthony stares at her.

SHAYLA

He’s my boyfriend.

THE FIGHT

The argument grows louder.

Anthony demands answers. Shayla refuses to back down.

Then everything changes.

Anthony loses control and slaps Shayla.

Silence.

The mysterious boyfriend immediately steps forward.

Within seconds, the two men are fighting in the middle of the hotel lobby.

THE SECRET RECORDING

Security finally separates everyone.

But before anyone can calm down, a hotel employee rushes toward them.

HOTEL EMPLOYEE

There’s a problem upstairs.

Shayla’s face turns pale.

HOTEL EMPLOYEE

We found a phone inside the room. It was still recording.

The phone suddenly plays a familiar voice.

ANTHONY’S VOICE

If Shayla finds out about this, we’re all finished.

THE FINAL SHOCK

Shayla stares at Anthony.

Anthony says nothing.

Then another voice comes from the phone.

WOMAN’S VOICE

Anthony doesn’t know the truth about Kai.

Shayla’s face drains of color.

Anthony looks at Kai.

Kai looks back at him innocently.

The recording cuts to black.
