Length: 2 minutes
The film opens to a close-up of an alarm clock playing classical music at 08:30am. A man (Gilbert Anderson) is shown in a close-up putting his feet into some slippers as he gets out of bed. It then cuts to the bathroom where there are various close-ups of him preparing for the day. He is shown putting toothpaste on a toothbrush, combing his hair and straightening his tie. From what the audience can see this man is very tidy and co-ordinated. His face is not revealed but a medium shot shows him walking out of his bathroom and into another room where there is a huge collage of photographs of the same girl (Sky Harrison) plastered against one wall. The photos are neatly and almost obsessively placed so that there are no gaps. Here the audience first begins to realise that there is something a little off about this seemingly average looking middle-aged man.
The camera then cuts to a medium close-up of the same girl from the photographs in a dark room. The music is heard vaguely from another room but is much quieter. Her eyes appear hazy and half closed. The background is not revealed but it is safe to assume that she is being held captive by the middle-aged man. The camera then cuts back to the man whose hands are shown in a close-up wiping knives clean and laying them out onto a surface. He is very precise and the knives look immaculate. The camera then cuts back to the close-up of Sky who is starting to look frightened as she hears boots descending a near by set of stairs. The camera cuts to a close-up of boots slowly walking down a set of stairs in a very dark environment. The camera then cuts back to the same close-up of Sky who looks increasingly more frightened and confused as the sound of boots walking across the floor draws nearer.
Suddenly a bright light illuminates Sky to reveal slightly bruised face and dishevelled hair. She appears disorientated and blinded by the brightness from the light. The man's hand carefully strokes her hair in a very lovingly fashion causing Sky to wriggle and try to call out for help. Her efforts are futile as it's obvious from her slurred words and lack of energy that she was probably drugged beforehand in order to keep her from escaping. The camera finally cuts to a low angle point of view shot from Sky of the man, revealing only a black silhouette.
