Our first key scene is taken from the beginning of the narrative when a young hooded, masked teenager (Jerome) breaks into a house. He forces his way into the Boss' house, however he does not know who lives there or the Boss' authority, the Boss' wife is home alone and gets pinned up against the wall by her neck. Jerome will be armed with a knife and be dressed in dark clothing with black gloves, he grabs anything he can which could be worth some value. He leaves the wife half unconscious and cowered in a corner where she is crying and shaking with fear. The scene will then jump forward to the boss phoning the hit man, telling him that he needs him to complete a job.

2. Kidnapping of the hit man (Wayne)
After Jerome was killed by the hit man, the gang members want to seek revenge. The scene begins with Wayne (the apprentice hit man) walking down a narrow alleyway, two gang members approach him from in front and as he begins to turn around another approaches from the other side. They put a black cloth bag over his head and throw him in the boot of a car. He is then shown to be in a dark, cold, damp room with his mouth taped and his arms roped behind the back of a chair with a torch being pointed at him. It leaves the audience asking the question of whether he escapes or not; like a cliffhanger.
