FADE IN: INT. A FRONT ROOM - DAY

DAVE, a man in his mid-twenties to early thirties, is sitting watching Television. The camera will pan up from behind the TV to show DAVE looking face on looking at the TV. His room is slightly messy, but not bad - for a bloke. The programme that he is watching is non-descript, occasional CANNED LAUGHTER can be heard. We only see the light from the TV illuminating the room and his face, as the curtains are shut.

We only see the light from the TV illuminating the room and his face, as the curtains are shut. Suddenly there is a KNOCK at the door. DAVE gets up and goes across the room to answer it. When DAVE opens the door he is confronted by a tall black cloaked figure holding a scythe - it is DEATH.

DAVE
I guess you've come for me?

DEATH nods.

DAVE
Well if you're not in a rush, do you wanna come in?

DEATH tilts head to one side.

DAVE
Well I just wanted to watch till the end of the programme. It's only on for another half-hour.

DEATH nods and walks into the room.

DAVE
Do you want a hanger for your Scythe?

DEATH nods so DAVE hangs it up somehow. Then DAVE tidies up the sofa, so that DEATH can sit down.

DAVE
There you go.

DEATH and DAVE sit down on the sofa. After a short pause in which DAVE tries to watch the TV, DAVE tries to talk to DEATH.

DAVE
Is this show alright? I can put another one on if you want?

DEATH looks at DAVE. DAVE then passes DEATH the TV guide. DEATH then starts reading through the TV guide.

DAVE
(Standing up)
Do you want a tinny or something?

DEATH nods.

DAVE exits to go to the Fridge. DEATH picks up the remote and starts flicking channels. DAVE comes back in carrying a couple of tins and some crisps.

DAVE opens the crisps and DEATH grabs a few before opening his can of beer.

DAVE
So why have you come here?

DEATH stops drinking his beer and starts crying. DAVE puts his arm around him.

DAVE
It's okay. There's no need to cry.

DAVE then gets DEATH a tissue. DEATH wipes his eyes.

DAVE then sits down again. DEATH then looks at him and gives him a big hug.

DAVE and DEATH then stop and look at each other. They then stand up together.

CUT TO:

EXT. A PARK - DAYLIGHT

DAVE and DEATH are walking along arm-in-arm. Suddenly DAVE stops borrows DEATH's scythe and runs OUT OF SHOT. A after a pause he returns with some freshly cut flowers.

CUT TO:

MONTAGE of DAVE and DEATH walking through the PARK holding hands. On the swings. Lying on the grass laughing.

CUT TO:

Final shot of DEATH and DAVE pushing a pram through the PARK. They stop and DEATH reaches down to tickle the BABY. Then DEATH and DAVE walk arm-in-arm into the sunset pushing the pram.

FADE OUT.

THE END.
