Daryl has been locked up on DHS Island for 2 months now. He has been tortured, abused, and malnourished. For his close friends Jolu and Marcus hope is beginning to fade and they may have to deal with the fact that their friend died because of their cowardly inability to act. Daryl’s parents have completely given up hope and begin their new life without him. Back on DHS island Daryl overhears a prison guard talking about how the national government is about to crack down on DHS island and that all of the prisoners will be killed in an attempt to destroy evidence. Daryl has many flashbacks to the "good old days" with his father and mother at the parks looking out at DHS island not knowing that in a few short years he would be facing a sense of impending doom. Daryl figured it out. He must escape.

He begins to acquire small ketchup packets. He then takes ketchup packets, puts them together into a jar and begins concentration them in the sun by adding his own source of urea, a nitrogenous base from urine, and stomach acid. He ends up making a batch so potent that it eats through the metal bars that hold him captive. At night he makes his escape. In traditional San Francisco escape fashion he makes a boat from inflated rain coats. Word gets out that a prisoner has escaped and the alarm is sounded. Lights from the watch towers are franticly looking around the ocean. They finally fixate on Daryl. The head DHS agent starts freaking out about what the implications if a prisoner leaked to San Francisco, their whole jig is off. She orders a sharpshooter to take him out. the sharp shooter takes aim, takes the shot and Daryl is hit, only wounded but hit in the leg. He begins to bleed into the ocean. The salt stings his gushing wound. He begins to notice that his improvised raft is beginning to fail. Slowly his raft starts to sink. Fatigued, hypovolemic, and discouraged, he slowly sinks to the bottom of the ocean, his efforts to escape have failed.

Escape from DHS Island

Scene 1

--Open with Daryl about to get tortured.

Daryl: I’ve been tortured, abused, and malnourished for what seems like forever... The days have faded together to form a single haunting memory that clouds every bit of my thinking.

--Zoom in on Daryl getting water boarded

Daryl: At first it was just simply question and answer, stern but humane. Then my food got taken away. I guess they thought I was hiding something.

--Show Daryl in his cell looking hungry, clutching his knees to his chest. Show him dirty and fatigued

Daryl: Food came irregularly, when it did it never felt like enough. The pit in my stomach ate at me daily. My gut started to fade. I slowly became numb.

--Go back to Daryl getting tortured by getting burned

Daryl: slowly the agents lost their patience with me; the questioning sessions became torture. The fresh wounds always hurt the longest. My body covered with scars has started losing sensation. Acclimating to their evil is the only way to cope.

…Pause

Daryl: The torture continues, I see no end in sight.

End Scene 1

--Flashback to times with Marcus and friends, at a café getting ignored

Daryl: Hey guys I was thinking we could have people over this weekend to my house.

Marcus: Daryl you know you’re house isn’t that much fun, and your mom doesn’t let us stay up late anyways, lets go to Vans house instead.

Van: Yeah that’s fine, ill have my mom make those noodles you guys like.

Marcus, Jolu: Yeah! Awesome.

Daryl: wait, I can’t stay over at Vans house, my mom wont let me.

Daryl is ignored.

Marcus: This is going to be awesome, Ill bring my extra 2 hard drives, we’ll install them tonight

Daryl: no wait Marcus those are mine you borrowed those

--Daryl looks down at the table while Marcus and Van

Marcus: What’s wrong D? What’s on your mind?

Daryl: well, I just feel like… pause…. oh never mind

Marcus: Alright Daryl, whatever man

--Scene changes back to Daryl’s cell

Daryl: They walked all over me; they only cared about themselves.

--Daryl starts to whimper to himself

Daryl: I shouldn’t have let them treat me like that; I didn’t even stand up for myself, I just took their shit. I can’t let that keep happening, I wont let happen.

Scene 3

Scene opens from Daryl’s POV watching a guard bring him some nasty grub

Guard: Daily special haha

Daryl: looks great, (he throws it back at the guard sternly)

Guard: ohhh a tough guy huh, how about no food for the rest of the weekend?

Daryl: Keep giving me that slop and it’ll keep coming your way

--Camera angle changes to see other prisoner’s cells

Other prisoners start hooting and hollering

Guard to another guard: go grab Carrie and see what she things about this
