(Sipho swings the object, hitting Dan on the head)

DAN : (groaning) Ugh…

(Dan collapses to the floor, motionless)

MELISSA : (horrified) Oh my god, Sipho!

SIPHO : (panicked) What have I done?!

(They rush to Dan’s side, seeing blood pooling from his head wound)

MELISSA : (terrified) He’s bleeding!

SIPHO : (shaking) Is he…alive?

MELISSA : (sobbing) I don’t know!

(They exchange fearful glances, unsure what to do)

SIPHO : (urgently) We need to get out of here, now!

MELISSA : (hysterical) What if he wakes up?!

SIPHO : (firmly) We can’t stay here!

SIPHO : (urgently) Melissa, we need to make this look like a robbery gone wrong.

MELISSA : (nervously) How?

SIPHO : (quickly) Go buy yourself a coffee, something you like. Make it look like you just got back and found Dan like this.

MELISSA : (tearfully) Okay…

(Melissa exits the apartment, leaving Sipho alone with Dan’s body)
