Description
FADE IN: INT. DC-10 AIRLINER - NIGHT JACOB JOHNSON is sleeping.It doesn't look like a pleasant experience.He is sixteen, dirty blonde, his eyes visibly moving under closed lids as he sits huddle under a blanket in his window seat.The lights are dim -- the shade on the window closed -- a bead of sweat dribbles down his forehead. The HUMMING of the jet's engines vibrates through the cabin. The boy's eyes snap open. Jacob glances around nervously.He looks like an escaped convict who just accidentally walked into the Policemen's Ball.A GREYHAIRED MAN two seats away from him gives the teenager a cursory glance, then goes back to his book.Jacob lays his head back and tries to relax.The engines continue to drone. Until a new noise starts.A WHOOSHING NOISE. The sound is very faint.But distinct from everything else. Jacob frowns. The noise gets LOUDER.Jacob's sure he's hearing it now.He looks at the Greyhaired Man.The man catches his eye and the two of them stare at each other for a heartbeat - then Jacob turns away.The Man returns to his book.And Jacob immediately turns back to him. JACOB Do you hear that? The man gives him an annoyed look as the WHOOSHING gets louder. GREYHAIRED MAN Hear what? JACOB That noise. GREYHAIRED MAN I don't hear anything. The man turns back to the book as the sound gets even LOUDER - - like it's coming closer.Jacob squirms in his seat -- sneaks a look at the man again.How can he not hear that?A STEWARDESS walks by and Jacob catches her attention.
