due to her poor driving as she is very stressed. As she
pulls up at her house she looks in her mirror and can see a
car pull up a few cars behind her. At this point Amanda is
very paranoid and thinks the car behind is following her.
At this point Amanda’s stressed state is not allowing her
to think properly, therefore she gets out of her car and
approaches the car she saw pull up behind her.
Smacking the window of the car door
AMANDA (ANGRY/SHOUTING)
What do you want with me? Just leave me
alone.
However she doesn’t realise that there’s no one actually in
the car as she is shouting at no one. This is because
Amanda is having an illusion on believing that there is
someone in the car .As Amanda begins to see that no one is
in the car she looks around and can see all her neighbors
looking at her. When she realises she rushes into her house
