Days of Violence

Madison?

Hey Claire, I'm just putting the groceries away.

How was your day off?

It wasn't really a day off,

I just caught up on work.

Did you just get in?

Of course, why, what's wrong?

Well I had my headphones on,

and I thought I heard a door open.

I assumed you got home earlier.

You know Tuesdays I'm not doing my blog.

Besides, Mikey asked me out for a drink.

So, you and Mikey?

Calm down, he has a girlfriend.

It was strictly professional.

Right.

Well, it must have been a neighbor's door then.

Well this building is a thousand years old so,

everything in it creaks.

Are we still on for tonight?

Do we still wanna go?

It's cold outside.

But it's cheap nights at the movies,

and I really want to see Ryan Gosling shirtless.

You're such a perv.

Fine, I'll go get ready.

I'll freshen up.

That was quick.

Are you gonna wear any makeup?

Why, we're just going to the movies.

I thought we might grab a bite afterwards.

Yeah, but then we'll be back way past my bedtime,

and I have to work tomorrow.

So do I, grandma, but we gotta live a little.

All right, all right, let's go.

Where do you want to eat?

I don't know, what do you feel like?

I think I'm feelin' pizza.

I'm always up for pizza.

Have you tried that new place that's near the theater?

Yeah, the Italian brewery?

Yeah, I heard it's pretty good.

Yeah, I haven't been there in a while but.

I hear they have a wine.

I didn't count on the other girl being here.

That was sloppy of me.

How was it?

I think it's my best work to date.

What do you think?

It was good.

Good?

Just good?

I think it was fantastic.

What about my performance?

You're performance was fine.

I mean, you like to show off a little bit.

And that's fine, you can do that, it's you're show.

But.

But what?

I feel trapped.

Trapped?

Trapped, how do you feel trapped?

I want to be more up close,

a little more personal.

I want to be in the action when it's happening.

I don't want to be hiding in the shadows,

set up a camera, and just leaving.

I want to be more intimate with you.

Let me direct you, make you a star.

Isn't that what you paid me for?

A star?

I am a star!

Okay, never mind.

My puppet.

Wasn't that fun?

It wasn't what I wanted.

But it'll do.

Now clean up the mess,

put the body in the car.

Boy that was fun,

watching that girl try to escape.

Are you okay?

Yeah, I just needed some air.

It takes a bit of getting used to.

It's not what you expected, was it?

I had an idea, but I'm getting used to it.

Makes me wonder,

where was she gonna escape to, anyways?

Straight.

They are afraid of you,

but what is it you're trying to accomplish?

When the time is right,

I'll let you know.

When you snatched her did you know she wasn't the one?

Of course.

Then why do it, why risk it?

It's all for fun.

Everything is just for fun.

You need a little taste.

Now come on!

This is for you.

What about your video?

I trust you, you can give it to me

the next time I see you.

Terrence, sorry about earlier.

I was getting ahead of myself.

No.

No,

you were right.

I should be the one to be apologizing to you.

I let my ego get the best of me.

I know you wanted to be a part of the action.

But next time, we'll do it your way.

I'd love to thank you,

for pointing out all my faults.

It helps me become

a better person.

So, thank you for everything.

Thank you.

Wait here.

I'll be right back.

He thinks that we do porn.

You know, that hardcore shit?

A little pain, a little violence.

I pay him, he doesn't say a word.

That's what I like.

Do you even care what I do to the bodies?

No, not really.

That's your business, I want no part of that.

So, how's the girl?

What girl?

Don't be stupid.

The girl you keep in your pocket, right there.

What's her name?

That's not important.

Have you even spoken to her?

Yes, of course.

It's coming together.

Coming together, how flattering.

Maybe I want to meet her.

Stay away from her.

Okay, okay.

I don't want to risk what we have.

Drop me off there.

Wait.

Wait!

Do you want to get a drink?

Let's make something clear, okay?

We're not friends, we are acquaintances.

Nothing more, nothing less.

The less you know about me, the better.

Let's try and keep it that way, okay?

Sure.

You'd better go rest up.

You're gonna hear from me.

Fine.

I have your number.

Oh, you'll hear from me.

Welcome to another episode

of Eves and Company.

Today, we are looking at a reoccurring situation

here in Toronto.

Criminals, murderers, and vigilantes.

Over the past several months we've see reports

of increased armed robberies,

local drug-dealing gangs, unprovoked murders,

and civilians being tired of this,

and in some instances, taking matters into their own hands,

as is the case of one person

I'd like to refer to as, 'The Citizen'.

Joining me today is Mister Tyson Briggs,

one of The Citizen's surviving victims.

He's reached out to me,

hoping to tell his unfiltered story about being kidnapped,

and brutally assaulted,

by this person who has left him

physically and emotionally scarred.

How are you, Mister Briggs?

You know,

it's been a rough time for me, but I'm coping.

We've seen reports about the event,

we've heard specialist's opinion,

but we have yet to hear your side of the story.

So please, Tyson, share your story.

Well, the statement that I gave

to the Toronto Police Department's no secret.

I never intended to hide it.

You know, whenever information gets passed around,

it often gets mistaken.

I just want to let the world know that

despite what happened to me and how I look now,

I've grown.

This incident's opened my eyes.

How so?

Well, it's a little hard to explain but,

being there, held against my will,

feeling helpless and powerless,

being violated and mutilated,

I felt enlightened,

as if God was trying to show me that my life has purpose,
