PANDORA

INT. MOTEL ROOM

Faust is talking to Pandora alone.
FAUST
What are you trying to do to her?
PANDORA
What do you mean?
FAUST
You know what I mean. Leave her alone.
PANDORA
Make me.
FAUST
You're crazy.
PANDORA
Make me.
Faust starts to touch her but he knows that his attraction to her is too intense and backs away.
PANDORA (CONT'D)
You think you can ignore this?
FAUST
Duncan is my best friend. We shouldn't be doing this.
She pushes close to him and again, it's electrifying and he almost can't contain himself.
PANDORA
Forget about Duncan. Forget about Susan. Nothing can stop this Faust.
Faust begins to hear all the devilish sounds that he hears when he is alone drinking in his room. Voices and whispers and sexy murmurings from female voices and his attraction to Pandora is becoming too much. His next words could be to Pandora or the devil and maybe even he doesn't know.
FAUST
Shut the fuck up.
PANDORA
Make me.
FAUST
What the fuck is wrong with you?
PANDORA
Make me.

She slaps him.

FAUST
You fucking bitch. What the hell is the matter with you? You know I -
She kicks and tears at him with her fingernails, until he finally reacts and pins her against the wall. Their faces are close together and they are both breathing heavily. She still struggles and he holds her as they stare at each other. Finally, the closeness and the energy begin to break down resistance and as Pandora moves closer to him, Faust kisses her. The kiss is angry and explosive. They both open up to each other and the floodgates open. It becomes passionate and desperate as they tear at each other removing clothes and kissing and touching. When Faust and Pandora finish their violent sexual encounter, Faust looks at the smeared makeup and the scratches on him and Pandora and he sees for the first time, a scar on Pandora's wrist where she had obviously attempted suicide. As he stares at her face, he is suddenly transported back to his mother's room once again.

INT. MOTHER'S BEDROOM - NIGHT

Faust finds his mother's bedroom door open and enters. His Mother sits at her dressing table with her back to him. As he approaches, he notices an empty bottle of Jack Daniels on the floor and then he sees a small pool of blood near the bottle. Finally, when his mother turns toward him, she has blood smeared over her face like lipstick and her wrists are slit.

MOTHER
Do you like my lipstick?

INT. MOTEL ROOM

Faust goes from looking at Pandora's wrists to looking at her face and running out of the room.
