Thomas is seemingly the last person on Earth after a mysterious illness killed everyone else over the past year. He spends his days scavenging empty houses for food and supplies to survive. Living alone with only his thoughts for company, Thomas struggles with loneliness and missing out on life experiences. In the final scene, Thomas hears a knock at the door - the first human contact he's had in over a year.

2. SCENE ONE
FADE IN:
INT. CLASSROOM - DAY
Pans across a silent media class, showing students
working. Tracks across a row, the first student coughing,
as it moves onto the next student (the immune one,
Thomas), you see him staring with disgust at the first
student. The camera carries on moving to the next student
to see them coughing as well. The camera goes back to
Thomas with a close up of the same disgusted reaction.
Wide shot of the classroom showing all the students
starting to cough. Bell rings indicating the end of
school.
SCENE TWO
EXT. OUTSIDE SCHOOL - DAY (3:30)
Some of the students from the media class are standing
outside school, after the crowds of school children have
dispersed. They are just talking and laughing when
Thomas’s phone rings, its his sister, Carly.
THOMAS
(Phone rings) hey guys, shh, it’s
my sister.
THOMAS’S FRIENDS
ooo, tell her I said hi (laughs)
THOMAS
(Sarcastically) Haha. No
THOMAS (TO CARLY)
Hey carls
CARLY
(Over the phone)(Crying) Thomas…
Its Mom… I don’t know what
happened… she just started
coughing…
THOMAS
Carly, slow down, what happened
CARLY
Its Mom, she's dead

3. .2
Close up on Thomas to show his emotions and his reaction
to the news. Almost instantly, Thomas’s friend starts
coughing uncontrollably and Thomas looks at him with a
shocked and scared expression on his face lowering the
phone from his ear. You see the friend drop to the floor
holding his chest and the scene cuts to black after
showing Thomas’s reaction of fear and confusion because
he doesn't know whats going on.
SCENE THREE
INT. HOUSE - Day (9:30)
FADE IN
(Actions and voiceover happens simultaneously)
Focuses on Thomas’ face as he slowly starts to open his
eyes. The camera shot switches to a wide shot showing him
sitting up in bed rubbing his eyes. He stands up and
walks out of his bedroom, and stumbles downstairs because
of how tired he is. He enters the kitchen and opens up
cupboards showing the lack of food in there and you can
see both the disappointment and fear in his eyes. He
climbs back up the stairs into the bathroom and splashes
his face with water and just stares into nothing as his
thoughts overtake him. He walks out the bathroom and back
into his bedroom and closes the door behind him. (Cuts to
next scene)
(VOICEOVER) THOMAS
It’s been a year since everyone in
the world died. Well as far as i
know. My mom was one of the first,
it was horrible going home and
seeing her lying there, lifeless.
Everyone else started to go the
next few months. The rest of my
family, my friends, everyone. I
knew it was my turn soon, but it
just didn't happen. No-one knew
what this disease was, or how it
affected so many people.
Scientists or doctors didn't even
have chance to try and figure it
out, they died to quickly. But why
didn't it kill me? Why am I
immune? Why me?

(VOICEOVER) THOMAS
My family always used to joke
about how I wouldn't survive
living on my own, I always said I
could. They always said I was too
lazy and dependant on others.
Obviously they meant living on my
own in a house, where I would have
to pay my own bills and cook my
own food. They didn't mean it this
literally, at least I proved them
wrong. After all the movies about
apocalyptic events and diseases
you would think we would be
prepared, but no. Actually, this
was nothing like the movies, there
was no zombie attacks, no big
explosions, nothing..it was just
me. Alone.
SCENE FOUR
EXT. Street - Day (11am)
Cuts to Thomas walking out his front door, he doesn't
lock it. He adjusts the his backpack and then shoves his
hands into his jacket pocket and walks down the deserted
street, looking at his feet as he walks. He gets to the
end of the street and looks both ways like he's making
decision of which way he’s gonna go. He carries on his
journey looking for food and other resources in order for
his survival.
(VOICEOVER) THOMAS
I haven’t locked my door in a
year, there’s no need, no-ones
gonna break in or anything. Kind
of an advantage of being the only
one left in the world. Im not
really sure why I’m still here or
what I’m meant to be doing. I’m
just trying to survive.
Thomas gets to a particular house and looks around for a
spare key. He finds one under the matt and enters the
house.

SCENE FIVE
INT. House - Day (2pm)
He walks into the house, looking around cautiously. He
see a family photo and looks it with a sad expression,
thinking how that just a year ago, they was here living.
He carries on looking round the house, walks into the
kitchen and looks through the cupboards for food or
anything that would be useful. He comes across a few tin
food cans and he opens his backpack and starts placing
resources into it. He carries on searching the house and
he finds wallet with some money, and he just throws it
down because of how useless it is now. He walks towards
the fridge and opens it but its turned off, the are some
old food in there but the bottles of water catches his
eye. He opens his back pack again and places the bottles
of water into it. He looks out the window and realises it
gone quite dark. He heads towards the door.
THOMAS (VOICEOVER)
It gets quite lonely now, being
the only person on earth, theres
no-one to talk to. I go weeks
without using my voice because
who’s gonna hear me. When i do
actually talk, sometimes i don’t
recognise my own voice, it’s
changed a lot from what i can
remember. My days have just turned
into going through other people’s
houses hoping i can get enough
food and water to survive, i don't
know why i bother though.
(When he finds the money)
Ah, money. its funny because this
is what everyone worked all day
and all week for, but now its the
most useless thing on earth, well
except if you wanted to start a
fire, i suppose it might come in
handy.
All the supermarkets were cleared
out within the first few months
when the disease first started to
spread food and water supplies
were getting very low quickly but
then everyone died, so it was just
me who need them. I just have to
find them. oh, its starting to get
dark..I should head home.

SCENE SIX
EXT. street - 7pm
Thomas is walking down the street with his backpack on
one shoulder. The emotions of being alone are really
showing on his face. He strolls down the road looking at
the floor, not bothering to look at his surroundings.
THOMAS (VOICEOVER)
I’m not sure why I go home, I
could sleep anywhere and in
anyones home, but being at home is
like the most normal thing that is
happening, I guess it just makes
me feel kinda normal. I’ve
actually walked a lot further than
I usually do, its probably cause
theres nothing left in any of the
houses near me.
When you have this much time on
your hands, you have plenty of
thinking time. I always think
about how many opportunities I’m
going to miss in life. How much
stuff I’m not going to experience.
Like I’m never gonna get my first
job, I’m never gonna have my own
family, I wont even get to go on a
lads holiday. I’m just never gonna
be able to live life to the
fullest, and there’s nothing I can
do about it.
SCENE SEVEN
INT. Home - Night
Thomas walks through his unlocked door and heads for the
kitchen to put away the food and water he found. He
begins to walk back through towards the living room and
is stopped when something knocks at the door.
Back when everything was normal, I
used to be so cautious about
walking home alone in the dark.
You never know what used to be
around the corner. But now danger
isn't a prob-.
