Gabi: Turn the video back on!
Jocelyn: Come on! Hurry up and turn the video back on!
Miriam: I tried! This damn remote control!
Susana: You work at a television station and don't know how to turn a video back on?
Miriam: Don't start with your jokes, Sus! I'm not in a good mood!
Susana: Nobody's joking! Hurry up!
Miriam: I'm trying! I already told you! It must be the damn batteries! I'll go get some new ones.
Denise: Come with me. Dany keeps a lot of things in her room. There must be batteries there. (The two girls stand up and walk to Dany's room)
Gabi: I'm glad to know the cameras on the city's lampposts actually work. Usually those things are just decorations with no useful function.
Jocelyn: You say that because you haven't seen how people destroy or vandalize them.
Jacqueline: Well... but... we have it, right? With this, we can put that horrible guy in jail... right?
Susana: Hmm...
Jacqueline: Umm... your... Susy? (she asked fearfully).
Susana: I'm sorry, Jacq. I think this only proves that that bastard is a degenerate. I don't know if this will help.
Gabi: This should help! It's on video! It's his dirty face! Justice can't simply ignore this.
Jocelyn: You're right, Gab. Justice can't ignore this video. This proves that guy was harassing our beautiful Dany. But unfortunately... the damn camera doesn't show when he attacked her...
Gabi: But... but... this is...
Emerald: So unfair? Yes... it is...
Miriam: I found the damn batteries! (Miriam puts the new batteries in the remote control and plays the video again.)
(The video begins to play, showing footage from a security camera high on a utility pole. After a few moments, as Miriam fast-forwarded the video, a silver car could be seen driving around the area several times. After a long moment, as the car parked, a man got out. He was a man with medium-length, blond hair and a robust build. Susana clenched her fists and gritted her teeth in rage. That man was Stuart, her friend Dany's violent ex-boyfriend.
Stuart walked slowly to a bush where he stood still, staring in one direction: Dany's house. He seemed to be using a pair of binoculars to carry out his sinister action).
Alice: Just seeing this... aaahhh!!! Dany!!! Why didn't you notice... why the hell did none of us notice she was being watched!!! (Alice said, frustrated).
(Miriam muttered a curse that no one could understand and fast-forwarded the video a little further, one minute, five minutes, ten minutes, twenty minutes, forty minutes, one hour, two hours. That guy had stayed in that same position for a little over two hours, watching, analyzing, preparing.)
Gabi: That bastard isn't moving! It can't be! That thing isn't human! It can't be human... he hasn't even moved to go to the bathroom or pay attention to his car!
