Hacked

The Present.
Kitchen.
House.
Daytime.

A typical kitchen in a family home with a sink in the centre with bowls and glasses next to it waiting to be washed up. On the same wall a window shows the view of the garden. There is a wide shot of a male sitting on a stool next to the counter to the right of the sink and this is the Hacker. He is of fair height and build of around 6ft and is dressed in tracksuit joggers and a sports jacket. He is hunched over a laptop tapping away furiously at the keys for a moment before sitting back in the stool. He puts headphones in his ears and stares at the screen intently. 

A close up shot of a mans lower face and neck is seen with a shirt collar and the top of the tie is visible. The lower part of a phone can be seen and its assumed it is pressed against his ear. The dead space around him gives little clue as to wear he is due to low key lighting. He speaks the following words to an unknown recipient. He coldly says into the phone. "You know where to find him, take all the evidence and destroy it". 

The hacker rushes to pack his laptop into a bag with a few other items and rushes out of the door behind him.

Tracking shot of the Man in a suit's shoes as he walks down what appears to be a drive way. It tracks upwards so that the back of his head is visible. He approaches the door and moves an unseen device towards the lock and then steps inside to find that the house is empty. He dials a number and simply states "He's not here". 

The Hacker is running and a dolly shot of his feet running emphasises this. 

The man in the suit is walking at a calm pace and another dolly shot is used to show this.

The Hacker runs down into some garages and pauses at the entrance to an alley to catch his breath and glances back to make sure nobody followed him. He turns the corner coming face to face with the Man in the suit and his eyes open wide in surprise.
