The elevator dings and the door opens. Daniel walks out slowly, expectant. His body relaxes as he moves through the lobby and no one addresses him. He lets himself into an inner office after entering a security code and finger scan. Daniel sifts through the desk at the back of the room, methodically gathering together papers. Then he grabs a brief case from underneath the desk that was left against it and fills it with all the paperwork. He exits.
Downstairs in the lobby of the building the door man unlocks the front door.
DOORMAN
Good night, Dr. Mateo.
DANIEL
Good night, Henry.
Daniel hesitates outsides and searches the night. Somewhat satisfied, he sets off down the street. He walks briskly on a mission. He barely pauses at street corners before he crosses. Ten blocks later, Daniel gets into a small blue car with a woman in the driver’s seat.
EVA MATEO
Everything alright?
DANIEL
Just go.
Eva reaches across to the passenger side and squeezes her husband’s hand. He smiles. She turns the car into the road when a loud RUMBLE approaches.
DANIEL
EVA!
A sanitation truck, aimed at their car barrels into them full on at full speed. The impact pins the car to the corner street lamp leaving it’s passengers dead on impact.
