1 - A man stands on the porch outside his house. He's dressed in regular clothes, although maybe a little disheveled. He hasn't slept, which might be reflected in his hair / face / potential five o'clock shadow. He looks at his watch, clearly impatient.

2 - Close on a newspaper landing on the yard's grass.
SFX: whmp!
3 - The man is crouching down to pick up the paper. He looks up in annoyance at the paperboy at the edge of the driveway stopped on his bike.
MAN: You're late.
PAPERBOY (1): Are you for real?
PAPERBOY (2): I'm 14. I only do this because my parents make me.
4 - On the paperboy as he bikes away. In the background, the man is already heading back into his house.
PAPERBOY (1): They invented something called the internet if you're in such a rush.
PAPERBOY (2) (quietly): prick
MAN (quietly): cretin
5 - The man is inside his house, looking at the front page as he walks away from the closed door, a bit of a smile on his face.
MAN: Now...
6 - On a second man sitting in the living room tied to a chair with duct tape across his mouth. He looks exhausted, scared, and probably a little roughed up. In front of him there is a camera set up, ready to take a picture.
MAN (off-panel): ...where were we?
