MO No I cannot! We see Mo running home. EXT. DESERT DESERT - DAY Looking out across the desert as the sun sets over the western horizon. INT.
BEDROOM OF KHADIJA AND MO - SUNSET
Khadija is sitting on the edge of her bed as Mo enters the room frightened and shaking. MO Hide me Khadija! Hide me! Keep me safe. Keep me warm please. KHADIJA What’s wrong Mo? He answer, still shuddering and very afraid of what he saw. MO I was touched by a monster! I have seen the Devil! I have seen the Devil, I was touched by a monster. KHADIJA What are you talking about? Have you gone mad? MO Oh no! He was choking me from behind. Who?
KHADIJA Who was behind you?
MO I told you, the Devil! It was the Devil. Yes, it was the Devil. I know him. Khadija gets up and moves across the room. KHADIJA (to herself) Perhaps the time has come so that I can have both the wealth and power I seek.
