“Visiting Hours”
by DF

Overview:

Feargirl is being tortured by a guard, but both are surprised when an uninvited guest decides to cut in and play some games of her own.

Locations:

The movie takes place in corridors, when guards can patrol and guard, leading to the red room, where Feargirl is held.

Characters:

Feargirl: Feargirl is in the Red Room being tormented by a guard, when we see her the process has been going on for some time. She is dressed in her usual Feargirl attire, looking suitable shiny and so forth. She is unarmed and bound with tape, entirely at the mercy of the guard.

The Guards: A group of the drone guards are protecting the area while one of their number tortures Feargirl. These are the same guards as featured in Inside Outing; the rank and file of the Panopticon.

O: O is something of a dissident within the Panopticon, an anarchist, saboteur, assassin and libertine. She plays within the Panopticon and preys upon all but its deadliest denizens for her sport. There is a sort of cybergoth vibe about her, but she favours almost garish colours, despite her clandestine methods. In many ways she is the polar opposite of GLADE, reliant upon chaos, distraction and daring as her modus operandi as opposed to stealth, patience and concealment. Specific elements of her costume include bright rubber gloves, for handling poisons and a belt of useful gadgets.

The Controller: The commander of the drones appears briefly and once again she is seen as nothing but the supercilious bottom half of a face in a brightly lit control room.

Scene One:

(We open on a shot of the guard in the Red Room with Feargirl. She has hooked Feargirl up to some sort of gas tank. The guard controls the air flow with a valve. Every few seconds the guard commands Feargirl to breathe and opens the valve, giving her a dose of the gas.)

(Feargirl is bound with tape at her wrists and ankles.)

(The gas is some sort of sedative/truth agent, but Feargirl is resisting it as best she can. She will cough and splutter on the gas, it’s clearly not pleasant stuff. We get the sense that the pair of them have been at this game for hours, but the guard has nowhere else to be and Feargirl is at her mercy.)

(It is clear that the guard is not really enjoying this, she is just a drone guard and isn’t actually particularly sadistic.)

(This process continues for a few moments, but as she scene draws to a close we see Feargirl get her hands on a sharp piece of plastic, as she scene fades out she starts to saw away at the bonds on her wrists.)

Scene Two:

(We see three different guards at various positions in the corridors outside the room, either on patrol or guarding. We then see the Controller, or at least the lower half of her face as she delivers her message.)

Controller: Time check. T-minus three hundred fifty seven. All stations be advised signal distortion detected at perimeter. Alert status now amber.

(The camera cuts to the guards again, briefly, also back to the Red Room where Feargirl is still being tortured. We see her being tortured some more. She writhes and chokes on the gas as the unrelenting guard keeps working on her. After a while the focus returns to the Controller.)

Controller: Message correction. Perimeter secured. Status green.

O: (Off screen) Good girl.

Controller: I did as you told me.

O: Yes you did. Now get some sleep. (We see a black plastic bag slide over the Controller’s face, she tries to take a breath, the plastic sucks in over her mouth and the scenefades out).

Scene Three:

(We see a guard on patrol in a corridor and she walks past a corner where O is hiding. O jumps out and grabs her. It looks like a fight at first but then we can see that O is in fact making out with the guard, despite the guard’s attempts to resist. O is really aggressively kissing and groping the guard, who seems to be getting weaker, reaching for the alarm on the wall. O pulls the guard to the ground and rolls on top of her, still smooching her intensely, pinning her to the ground and staying on top. The guard tries to fend her off but soon the struggle is over. O sits up, wipes her mouth and reapplies her lipstick.)

O: (To the guard, who now lies stone dead on her back on the ground) Oh don’t look at me like that, you wanted it.

(O stands up and leaves. We do not find out how the guard was taken out. Poison? Pressure points? Pheromones? Could be any of them, or something else.)

Scene Four:

(O is tinkering with a small computer, like a smart phone, which she has used to hack into the security system. She seems to be adjusting something in the security set up.)

(Cut to a guard who stops on her patrol route. She tilts her head and puts a finger to her ear, listening to a message on her radio, after listening for a moment she turns around. She listens again, this time tilting her head back to look at something on the ceiling.)

(O appears behind the guard and slips a garrotte wire over her head, where she has been perfectly presenting her throat for attack. The struggle is very one sided.)

Scene Five:

(We return to FearGirl with the guard, she finally manages to cut the tape around her wrists, she just needs to lure the guard in closer so she can grab her. We see her contemplate this problem for a second, before she decides on a plan.)

Scene Six:

(The guard outside the torture room is standing watch, as you’d expect. Suddenly she hears somebody approaching, she looks round to see O approaching, bold as brass down the corridor.)

O: You going to capture me?

(The guard goes for the taser baton on her belt but O beats her to the draw, squirting her in the face with liquid from an atomiser she’s holding. The guard reels backwards, apparently choking and in considerable discomfort.)

O: You don’t like the taste? So sad for you.

(O pins the guard down, pushing two fingers from one hand into her mouth.)

O: Suck on them, there’s a good girl. That’s it.

(The guard struggles, choking.)

O: So if I had a gun to your head, which poison would you like more? Poison spray or the contact poison on the gloves?

(The guard writhes some more and we see O smiling as she pushes her fingers deeper into the unfortunate guard’s mouth before she finally stops moving.)

Scene Seven:

(As the guard prepares to give Feargirl another hit off the mask she smiles flirtatiously and moves away a bit, the guard looks confused by the change in her behaviour. Feargirl licks her lips real slow, the guard reaches toward her, trying to grab her for the mask. As she gets close Feargirl grabs the mask from the guard and the two of them struggle, Feargirl’s legs still are bound, but she’s more desperate and strong than the guard and forces the mask over her mouth and nose. This seems to subdue the guard quite quickly. Feargirl then reaches over to the gas tank and shuts off the gas, suffocating the guard with an empty mask.)

Scene Eight:

(Feargirl is seated on the couch next to the dead guard trying to untie her legs when O walks in, and she looks up with a ‘This isn’t what it looks like’ look on her face.)

O: So you’re the interesting specimen. FG: Who are you?

O: I’m the closest thing you’ve got to a friend in here. (O approaches Feargirl and looks her over, not helping her untie herself though)

FG: Will you help me escape? (Feargirl finishes unbinding her legs and stands up)

O: (O is now examining the gas cylinder, seemingly unimpressed by it) Maybe. Not today. You’re not done yet.

(O grabs Feargirl and kisses her deeply and dramatically, a proper over the top end of 1950s romantic adventure movie kiss. Feargirl is too taken aback to resist at first, and she is too far gone by the time she reacts to fight back properly. The kiss seems to go on a while, but when she is finished O lowers the now sleeping Feargirl back to the couch.)

O: Delicious. (She leaves)
