Final Departure

Filmed in 60FPS HFR (High Frame Rate)

Keira, a poised and elegant flight attendant, steps into her hotel room pulling her suitcase behind her. She is dressed up in her uniform and stockings, flats clicking on the floor, a small scarf tied around her neck, her hair gathered in a bun with a stewardess hat on top. Keira locks the door and brings the suitcase to the living area, sitting down on the couch for a peaceful respite in between all of her work travel. After relaxing a moment Keira goes checks out the rest of the unit. She steps into the bedroom and looks around, finding one piece of chocolate on the pillow. A charming touch left by housekeeping, she assumes. She looks around the rest of the room then takes the treat back to the couch with her.

Keira lounges on the couch and unwraps the chocolate, taking a bite out of it. The stewardess kicks off her shoes then lays back onto the couch to take a nap after the long travel day. She stretches out her legs and enjoys a moment of quiet peace. But what she does not know is that this peace will soon be disturbed as a masked intruder has been hiding in the hotel room all day and was watching Keira from the closet as she explored the bedroom. While she is resting, he subtly puts another piece of chocolate on the pillow and makes a noise to draw Keira’s attention. The noise snaps her out of the calm as she thinks through what it could be. Rising cautiously, she steps to the bedroom and peeks inside. Keira nervously looks around the room until she notices the sweet on the pillow again. With no rational explanation for how it could get there, Keira moves closer to examine closer.

Unbeknownst to her, the masked intruder emerges from the closet behind her, moving with predatory precision directly towards his target. Keira has a brief moment where she realizes someone is behind her, then she turns quickly to face him. Before she can react, the intruder lunges forward and does a hand gag over Keira’s mouth while his other hand pulls tightly on the scarf knotted around her neck. Keira tries to scream as loud as she can but is muffled by the hand gag while she struggles with the intruder. The two struggle in front of the bed until the intruder swings Keira around and pushes her against the wall on the other side of the room. Keira swings her arms at him and tries to kick him away, but the masked man holds on tightly to the scarf choking her mercilessly, causing Keira’s eyes to roll back and her tongue to stick out. After much struggling against the wall the attacker pulls her away and maneuvers behind her, using his weight and leverage to control her thrashing. Keira’s struggles grow erratic, her movements increasingly frantic as she gasps from the pressure. The man kicks Keira’s legs out from under her and she falls to her knees. The intruder uses this new leverage to pull the scarf all the tighter, and Keira is too weak to rise from her position. The attacker tightens the scarf further, pulling with brutal determination. After much struggle Keira’s fight leaves her and she collapses limp on the floor with her eyes closed.

The masked man lets go and examines Keira while he regains his breath. After a few moments unconscious, Keira gasps back awake and tries to stand. But the attacker is quick to resume his assault, pinning Keira down with his knee and pulling the scarf tightly around her neck. The stewardess’s feet slide against the floor while she tries to escape from the killer’s grasp. The attacker keeps Keira pinned down as she slides along the floor, her eyes crossed and tongue sticking out far from the pressure. After much fighting, Keira loses her fight and goes limp on the floor with her tongue protruding and her eyes open in a death stare. The killer holds on a few moments longer, then lets go of the scarf and looks close at his victim. He rolls her over then grabs her arms and drags Keira’s body out of the bedroom.

The killer brings Keira to the living room and drops her in the middle of the room. He examines the body close, running a hand along the side of her face and looking at the dark bruise on her neck from the scarf strangling. The killer stands up and walks out of the room, returning with an oversized black bag he had stowed away. Without delicacy, the killer stuffs Keira’s body into the bad one limb at a time, ending with pushing her legs together and stuffing them inside. He takes her shoes from the floor and her hat as well, placing all evidence inside the bag stuffed with Keira’s corpse. Satisfied, the killer zips the bag up and drags it away, returning to take the flight attendants suitcase with him.
