The door closes and footstep are heard getting closer to her. She shouts to the unknown person asking where she is and what they want with her. Miss smith slowly walks over to her and pulls off the bag revealing Daisy's face all battered and bruised, she looks around the room before looking up to Miss Smith who then says to her 'all you have to do is co-operate.' Daisy starts to hyperventalate and struggles to free her hands again. Miss Smith then begins to interrogate her and Daisy pleads that she hasn't done anything and has no idea why she is there. Miss Smith is unhappy with her answers and then puts a cloth to her mouth where Daisy blacks out. It then flashes back to a few days before when Daisy is leaving her house. She walks down her path when it looks like someone is looking at her through the bushes. She continues down a path when she looks behind her and sees an unknown figure following her, she begins to walk faster and faster. As she becomes more scared she starts to run and enters a nearby woods. The unknown figure chases after her in the woods when Daisy falls over a stone in the woods, laid on the floor the chaser slowly walks over to Daisy and pulls out a cloth. She smothers it over Daisys face with her falling unconsious.

Suggested elements:  The interrogater puts a cloth over Daisy's mouth which infers that she is being drugged with chloroform although you don't know for sure what is on the cloth you can imagine that it is some sort of smelling drug. When the bag is removed off of Daisy, she has a black eye, cut on her cheek and a bloody nose which shows that she has been beaten and hurt although the audience never saw this. The small room may allow the audience to feel like Daisy is trapped and may feel like they are trapped too with no way out.
