dark inside the house. The husband and wife are scared to go in the house but still they enter
the house)
Wife: Hello. Is there anyone here? We need your help.
Husband: Hello!!
(The door closes automatically with a bang. The couple run towards the door and tries to
open it, but nothing happens)
Wife: (in a scared tone) Oh my god. What will happen now? We are stuck here. I am so
scared! I want to go out!. Please help.
Husband: Wait. I will try to break this door. After all, it’s wooden and looks very old. It will
not take much effort.
(Husband tries to break the door but after multiple failed attempts. He gets tired and sits near
the door)
Husband: (in a tired voice) it’s not opening. It’s a very strong wood door. I can't break it on
my own. Why did we come here? We should have stayed in the car only. That was much
better. We are stuck here. I just want to go out.
Wife: We will get out of here. Don’t say that. Wait, I will look for something here.
(Wife tries to look around the room with her phone’s flashlight. All she could see was old and
dirty wooden furniture and a dirty floor with sand on it. It looks like no one came here in
years. Very old and destroyed paintings were hanging on the wall. )
Wife: I can't find anything here, everything is so old and rusty. All we can do now is wait for
the morning. There is not even a window in this house. Only one door. What is this place?
Where are we?
Husband: It’s all my mistake. I only asked you to come out of the car. I am sorry. We are
stuck here because of me.
Wife: No. Don’t say that. I asked you to come inside this house. It’s all my mistake.
Husband: no it’s my mistake. I am responsible for this situation.
Wife: No, I am responsible for this.
Husband: No you are not. I am responsible.
Wife: No, we are here because of me.
Driver: Both of you are here because of both of you.
Husband: Driver, you idiot. Where are you? We are stuck here because of you. Now come in
front of us. I will tell you how powerful I am. You are finished now. I will complain to the
police. Now come in front of us.
