Cut to opening of case

Detective 2:
Shit.

I think that this script is a good one because it explores the key things we wnat the audience to notice, such as the briefcase, the fact that nothing important was stolen. The script also leaves the audience in suspence for what will happen after the titles have past. I enjoyed filming with this script although some words in the script are missing, but it really doesn't effect the film in any way.
