(Open in a pitch-black area. Suddenly the door to the area opens; it is a mini-fridge. Amanda reaches in and pulls out a bottle of champagne then closes the door. Cut to outside of the fridge and into the kitchen of Amanda’s apartment. Amanda goes over to the counter and places the bottle inside a large wicker picnic basket. Amanda turns around and goes to the cupboard and opens it. She takes out two flute glasses and closes the cupboard; focus on Amanda as she looks to the glasses and sighs.)

Amanda: "Well…. Tonight’s the night…. no more lies…."

(Amanda walks over to the basket and places the glasses into it. Amanda picks up the basket and walks out of the kitchen and into the living room. She picks up her purse and keys that lay on a glass coffee table surrounded by bright red furniture to go with the bright red carpet and white walls. Amanda puts her purse over her shoulder and grabs her keys in her left hand and the basket in the right as she heads to the front door. Suddenly the phone rings; Amanda turns around. Focus on the phone sitting in the kitchen as it rings. Amanda drops the basket, her purse and her keys.)

(Amanda groans.)

Amanda: "What the fuck do you want! Your check is in the mail so go fu-"

(Louise laughs; Amanda looks to the doorway and sighs.)

Amanda: "Well that was the last you’ll ever get from me! I’m going to tell Wes tonight, the secrecy is killing me and this fucking blackmail is bankrupting me!"

(Louise laughs again.)

Louise: "Not a good time to get a conscience Amanda…"

(Amanda scoffs.)

Amanda: "Oh well tough shit! I’m going to tell him tonight and that is that!"

Amanda: "What now!"

(Louise sighs.)

Louise: "We WEREN’T finished yet Amanda…."

Amanda: "YES, we were!"

(Louise’ voice shows fear yet keeps a bitchy sound.)

Louise: "You won’t tell him you bimbo!"

(Amanda marvels at Louise’ guts.)

Amanda: "You just try and stop me you white trash piece of dog shit!"

(Louise comes back, screaming now.)

Louise: "Listen slut! If you tell him tonight you will still be living in fear! Not from him…BUT FROM ME!!!!!! We will be in touch you fuckin’ tramp…"

(Louise hangs up; Amanda hangs up and drops the phone on the floor. Cut to Amanda’s face as she wipes away tears from her eyes. Amanda looks to the door and moans.)

Amanda: "This is almost over…not too much longer and you won’t have to be guilty anymore…."

(Amanda goes to the basket, picks it up, puts her purse over her shoulder, picks up her keys and walks to the door. She opens it then walks out; she closes the door and locks it and walks down the hall.)

Garaging Complex

(Amanda bursts through a clear, glass door as she walks quickly into the garage carrying the basket, adjusting it in her left hand as she walks. Amanda’s high heels echo loudly through the garage as she walks. Amanda fingers her keys; she finds her automatic locking key chain and presses it. Cut to a green 2000 Volkswagen Beetle as its lights flash. Amanda sighs and walks over to the Beetle. Cut to inside the backseat as she opens the door to it and places the basket in there. Amanda closes the door; cut to outside as she walks around to the drivers’ seat. Cut to inside as Amanda gets in; she places the keys in the ignition and turns them.

Cut to behind the car as it zooms past a road sign saying, "Woodsboro Heights 10 miles". Cut to inside the car now, "Ex-Girlfriend" by No Doubt blares on Amanda’s radio. She drums her fingers on the steering wheel as she rocks out to the song. Cut to her purse as a ringing sound comes from it. Amanda notices the ringing; her face looks puzzled. She leans over to the speakers then to her purse and finally hears it.)

Amanda: "Shit!"

(Amanda turns down the radio; grasping the wheel with her left hand, Amanda uses her right to go into her purse, take out her cell phone and turn it on and put it up to her ear.)

Amanda: "Hello?"

Wes: "Hey…you planning on getting here before dawn?"

(Amanda laughs and smiles.)

Amanda: "Sorry, I was…pre-occupied by a phone call. I’m almost there so don’t worry…"

(Wes laughs.)

Wes: "Worry? Ha! I knew you’d be late, you’re always late. It’s not like this was the first time…"

(Wes continues to laugh; Amanda turns another curve. Focus on Amanda’s face.)

Amanda: "Damn it Wesley! Couldn’t you just move your studio into town?"

(Wes stops laughing.)

Wes: "I promise, once we’re married, I’ll move into town, but until then_"

(Wes is cut off; Amanda looks at the phone strangely. Cut to her rear view mirror as she looks into it. Amanda sees a row of power lines she just went under and sighs. She hangs up.)

Amanda: "Oh well, no big loss…"

(Amanda begins to dial another number, then puts it on her shoulder so she can turn yet another curve in the road. It rings and rings, and then she begins to talk.)

Amanda: "Hey sexy….well I’m on the way to Wes’ now. Don’t worry, I’m telling him tonight! Louise won’t have anything on us and we can live a normal life together…."

(A clicking noise echoes through the conversation. Amanda groans.)

Amanda: "Damn it, I’ve got another call…well I’ll talk to you later, bye…"

Amanda: "Leave me the hell alone you sick freak!"

(Amanda hangs up and tosses the phone into the passenger’s seat and shakes her head.)

Amanda: "What is it with this town and phone calls?"

(Cut to outside of the car as it turns another curve; the camera pans out from the road to see a huge, dense forest resting below the high mountain road. Cut back inside Amanda’s Beetle as the phone rings again. Focus on Amanda as she eyes the phone and sighs. She reaches over and picks up the phone; she answers it.)

Amanda: "What now!"

Voice: "I wanna play…"

(Amanda turns another curve.)

Amanda: "Then call someone else because I’m not playing anything…"

(The Voice laughs.)

Voice: "I think you will, your life just may depend on it!"

Amanda: "Do I have to Star 69 your ass or will you tell me who you are!"

(The Voice stops laughing)

Voice: "No need to be rude…and why did you hang up on me! I thought we were having FUN!"

(Amanda’s voice quivers.)

Amanda: "O-o-ok, you’re starting to scare me…"

(The Voice sighs.)

Voice: "Only starting?"

(Amanda begins to breathe faster.)

Amanda: "Listen to me creep! Hang up now and forget this number or I’ll _"

Amanda: "Well I don’t want to fucking play! GOT IT!"

(The Voice laughs.)

Voice: "Too late….your it…"

(The Voice hangs up, Amanda lets out a cry as she throws her cell phone onto the passengers’ seat.

Scene 4

Forest

(Silence as the two glide, suddenly they break apart, sending Amanda’s Beetle into the trees and the Tacoma into the forest floor below. Staying with the Beetle, it slams into branch after branch before slamming into the higher trunk of the tree where it lands and steams. Cut to the Tacoma as it slams onto the forest floor. Inside the truck, the driver tries to swerve out of the way of the tree trunks but suddenly opens his car door and jumps out as the Tacoma slams into a giant tree trunk, exploding as it raps around the tree. The camera pans the area as the Tacoma burns up, it turns upwards to Amanda’s Beetle as it hisses up in the branches of a near by tree. Cut to inside the Beetle, Amanda moans as she gets up from her hiding position under the dashboard and grabs her forehead in pain. She immediately goes to the car door and opens it. Amanda falls from the car, but manages to keep a hold on the door handle. The camera looks down on Amanda as she hangs from the car door screaming and kicking her feet. She looks down to the floor about 30 feet below and screams. Amanda reaches for her seat and grabs a hold of it with her left hand as she holds the door handle with her right. Amanda pulls herself up to the seat; the car squeals, cut to the wheels as they slowly move off a branch they landed on. Amanda is as steady as stone, she doesn’t move. Cut to Amanda’s face as her eyes look to the gear shift. Amanda slowly lets go with her left hand and reaches up to the gears. She grabs the gearshift and pulls it up from drive, to reverse and just as it goes to park, cut to the back right wheel as it slips off the branch and shakes the car. Cut to Amanda as her hand slips and she falls from the car. Amanda screams as she falls to the ground, she slams into the smaller branches and the trees leaves as she finally hits a bigger branch and flips forward then slams into the dead leaf littered dirt. Amanda lays there, unconscious. Cut back to the Volkswagen as the front left wheel slips off a branch. Cut to the open drivers’ side as the shake tosses the cell phone over the edge of the driver’s seat and down to the forest floor. Cut to Amanda as the phone hits her in the head and her head rears up as she gasps for air. Amanda rolls over onto her back as she breathes heavily. She looks up to the Volkswagen and she groans.)

Amanda: "Oh holy shit…..how in the hell do I get that down…"

(Amanda tries to get up but screams; she falls back down. Amanda looks to her left leg and cries; her foot is turned backwards and is bleeding badly. Amanda lies in the leaves crying as she turns her head and sees the Tacoma burning. She slightly grins.)

Amanda: "Poor bastard…."

(Amanda then looks concernedly as she sees her cell phone. Amanda gasps with relief, she grabs it and turns it on.)

Amanda: "Oh thank god!"

(She punches in 9-1-1, it rings once then Operator picks up.)

Operator: "911 emergency, how may I help you?"

(Amanda screams out.)

Amanda: "I’ve been in an accident! I need help! Please god, my foot is broken an _"

(Amanda stops talking as the Operator asks questions; Amanda turns around. Cut to the shadows as smoke blankets the area. Behind the smoke, the shadow of a man moves and Amanda gasps.)

Amanda: "Oh fuck! The guy who ran me off the road is still alive! Please, you’ve got to help me! Please!!!"

Operator: "Miss, calm down! What is your location?"

Amanda: "God, I don’t have a fucking clue!"

Operator: "Well what street were you driving on?"

(Amanda stops to think then blurts out an answer.)

Amanda: "Highway 409!"

(A twig snaps and Amanda cries out.)

Amanda: "Shit! He’s coming after me! Help me please!"

(Operator tries to calm down Amanda.)

Operator: "Miss, remain calm! Help is on the way, now I need you to keep talking…"

(Amanda wipes away some tears, then suddenly a click echoes through the conversation and the camera closes in on Amanda’s face as her eyes bulge with fear. She looks strangely at the phone.)

Operator: "Miss? Miss are you there? Hello?"

(Amanda slowly reaches and hits send to receive the other call. She clicks it then puts the phone back to her ear.)

Amanda: "H-hello?"

Voice: "Look up bitch!"

(Amanda looks up; Ghostface stands over her with a knife in hand. Amanda screams as Ghostface plunges his knife into her chest. Amanda screams in pain, she grabs his shirt and tosses him to the ground as she crawls away from him. Ghostface grabs her bad foot and twists it. Amanda screams and turns to try and kick Ghostface but he takes his knife and stabs her in the left thigh. Amanda cries as she kicks Ghostface in the head then bends over to take out the knife. She uses the knife and stabs Ghostface in the shoulder then gets up. Using her right leg, Amanda hobbles away from Ghostface as she drags her left leg. Amanda runs, looking behind her frequently. She sees Ghostface coming and she screams. She reaches the hill up to where she had been driven off the road. Amanda falls to the dirt and crawls up the hill as Ghostface reaches her. Amanda rolls over and tries to kick Ghostface as she sobs. Ghostface evades her attacks then punches her in the face. Amanda becomes dazed. Ghostface picks her up as the lights and sirens of squad cars blare around them. Ghostface carries Amanda up the hill, focus on Amanda’s face as her eyes roll up into her head as she moans. Ghostface makes it up to the road as the cops get closer. Ghostface raises Amanda over his head as Amanda faintly speaks.)

Amanda: "N-n-noooo…."

(Cut to the corner as the squad cars roar around the corner. Cut back to Ghostface as he throws Amanda at the squad car. Cut to the wheels as Amanda flies into the wheel and is caught by it. She screams as she is repeatedly run over and her body rips apart. The cop driving slams on the breaks and Amanda’s upper torso flies from the wheel as the lower part jams the wheel and the squad car does a barrel roll. It rolls over the edge of the side rail. Cut to where Ghostface was standing to see nothing. The camera pulls out as another squad car rolls onto the scene and stops as two cops run out. One screams out as he sees the blood and guts that used to be Amanda as the other runs over the side rail to help his friend. The camera pulls out further as the scene fades to black. Once it is a black screen, Ghostface’s mask appears on the screen. The eyes, nose and mouth of the mask glow red as the whiteness of the mask fades out and suddenly a bright red flash blends the red features of the mask into a four as the letters SCREAM in white appear on the screen. The title remains there as SCREAM 4 as it quickly cuts to Scene 5.)

(Wes laughs as he grabs a pack of cigarettes from a small table next to his chair. He pulls out a cigarette, puts the pack back on the table then picks up a match book, lights a match then lights his cigarette and shakes the match to blow it out. Wes puts the match on the table then takes a puff of his cigarette and blows the smoke at Veronica. Cut to Veronica as she coughs; cut back to Wes.)

Wes: "Cut the cord Veronica, you should have stopped caring for me when I dumped you for the deceased…"

(Jen scoffs.)

Jen: "Whatever….just bring up the article we need!"

(Janice nods and scrolls down quickly. Finally Jen shouts.)

Jen: "Stop!"

Janice scrolls down slowly, focus on the computer screen as it brings up the photos of the victims. Next come more text and a picture of the mask. Janice continues to scroll down as the photos of the two killers come up and Jen gasps.)

Jen: "There they are….the legends of Woodsboro….Billy Loomis and Stewart Mocker…"

(Janice cringes.)

Janice: "Pretty rat lookin’…"

(Jen sighs.)

Jen: "Shut up and keep scrolling!"

(Janice does what she is told and brings up a photo of Sidney Prescott. The camera goes into a close-up of the girl, the photo was taken just after she had killed the two.)

Jean: "Mrs. Valador, there is no reason to think this is a continuation of what happened before! Please, I am almost able to raise their grades into the passing range!"

Ryan: "Well fuck you! I don’t want to play any fucking game, I’m calling the cops!"

(The Voice laughs.)

Voice: "You do and mommy dearest dies…"

(Ryan stands up and off the bed.)

Ryan: "Ok…..ok I’ll play…"

Voice: "Good boy! Now this game involves a lot of movement, a lot of pain and A LOT of screaming…..now here’s the first question! If I am not the only killer, where is my partner? The front door, the back door, the side door or how about…"

(A brick comes flying through Ryan’s window, hitting Ryan in the back and sending him onto the floor; cut to the window.)

Cut back to outside of the shower as he takes the white wash cloth and begins soaking it in glue. Cut back to the inside of the shower as he slams the was cloth to the drain and holds it till it sticks. Ghostface releases the wash cloth and then his hand slowly goes up to the handle for the hot water. He turns it all the way to the side and makes Karen jump backwards from the heat, then he quickly turns off the cold and slams the door. Before Karen can escape, Ghostface glues the door shut and the steam from the inside makes it dry quickly. Karen screams in pain as the hot water begins to boil her legs. Karen kicks and punches at the glass as she screams in pain. Ghostface backs away from the glass box shower as Karen begins to float in the boiling water. Soon Karen’s cries fade off as the boiling water consumes her, she then simply floats limply in the water. Cut to the door as it closes. Cut back to Ryan as he lies on the floor crying as the Voice laughs. Suddenly, downstairs the doorbell rings.

Once upstairs, Ryan gets to his feet and limps into his room as Ghostface runs up the stairs after him. Ryan locks the door and backs away from it as Ghostface begins twisting the doorknob and punching the door. Ryan turns around and looks at his window.
