INT. STUDENT HOUSE - NIGHT #4#

The party is packed wall to wall — music pounding, students shouting over each other, bodies pressed in the hallway. Hannah pushes through in her coat, slipping past beer bottles and backpacks, trying not to be noticed.

Through the crush of people, Hannah spots Maya — laughing with a group near the window, a drink in her hand. Hannah hesitates, then starts pushing her way across the room toward her.

HANNAH

Maya?

MAYA

Hi. Do I know you?

HANNAH

My name's Hannah. Can I talk to you?

MAYA

Sure.

Something off-screen catches Hannah's eye. She stops, tense.

HANNAH

Sorry, give me one second?

In the corner: GRAHAM. Awkward in the chaos, clutching his soda like a prop, scanning the room. Hannah changes course and heads straight toward him.

HANNAH

What are you doing here?

GRAHAM

Having a drink. What are you doing here?

HANNAH

Looking for Maya.

GRAHAM

Oh. Sorry, I don't know who that is.

This gives Hannah pause.

HANNAH

You don't?

GRAHAM

(apologetic)

I don't know many people here, honestly. I'm a classmate of Sarah's.

HANNAH

Who's Sarah?

GRAHAM

This is Sarah's party?

HANNAH

Oh, right. Can you excuse me?

Hannah walks away again and grabs her phone. Intercut between Hannah and Julia.

HANNAH

Graham is here.

JULIA

What? Why?

HANNAH

It's his classmate's party.

JULIA

I don't understand.

HANNAH

This isn't his Traveller version.

JULIA

But shouldn't Graham be here any moment, then? He can help us.

HANNAH

He should, but he isn't. I think something's wrong. Remember back at the hotel room? The phone didn't ring.

JULIA

You think something happened?

HANNAH

Well, whatever it is, he doesn't recognise me.

JULIA

Can you come outside?

HANNAH

Why?

JULIA

I have an idea.
