Title: The Hit

Log Line: An assassin is hired for a hit but experiences some conflicts with who he is trying to kill.

A dark room with a single ceiling lamp on. A man in a suit is sitting behind a desk and gets up nonchalantly. The mans face is in the shadows with a tint of light showing the mouth. Another man in a suit walks into the room with sunglasses on walking very haughtily. The man seems very gruff and dirty with a very serious look on his face he stops right in front of the the desk and stares at the man behind the desk. There is complete silence for a moment. The Man walks over slowly to the other man.

He greets the man with a very low monotone voice, with little emotion. Short syntax making conversation brief showing little relation with the man behind the desk and the main character. The man in the suit says, "hello". The man at the desk responds and calls him "Joe". The man at the desk goes into a safe in the desk and slides a folder across the desk. the gruff man opens the folder and slowly shifts through it looking at every sheet. The man at the desk then brings a large
leather briefcase from the closet and slides it across the table. The gruff man takes the case and opens it. the audience can not see what is in. The gruff man says "its been a pleasure" and leaves.

The gruff man is seen in his small apartment at his desk. He has a concentrated face and looks like he is working hard. He continues to search through the folder. He finds an address and sates it out loud.

The man is sneaking out on someone's porch. He peeks through the window to see the back of the man's he has been looking for. He is having an argument with his wife. They are screaming and yelling at each other. the women storms out. The man is left alone in his room and he sulks on the bed. The assassin then brakes in ready for his kill. The killer stops and realizes that the man is his brother. They argue and discuss why he is want dead. the target realizes there is nothing he can do to escape the mafia. He takes the killers gun and shoots himself in the head.

The body lays lifeless on the floor. His brother hanging over him. His phone rings. He answers it and says "its done".`
