Poor Beth, although she is very brave, and then she realises...others? Slow to catch on, but incredibly useful for future discussions, this is a fantastically intriguing script, very good, beautifully written, blessings Roy

Thank you, Roy :-). She's playing a dangerous game, but I think she may have some idea what she's doing...

It certainly sounds like it, well done Mike
Comment from Dawn Munro
Hmm, the plot thickens... (Sorry -- I couldn't resist --*grin*) I'm glad to see you are continuing with this script. It truly is easy to imagine, and most entertaining.

Thank you! I started with a couple of lukewarm reviews but got some much more encouraging ones. I'm going to enjoy exploring these characters.

Comment from Sandra Nelms-Ludwig
Love you gave a bit of the backstory for any new reader. Mike this is a great script. You are a frigging tease. You give just enough to pique the interest of the reader and to make her or him want a bit more. This is Tony Tiger GREAT!!! I will return for part III.

Comment from karenina
I'm so glad you've given enough another bite at this apple. It's curiously disturbing. Keeps me emotionally off balance and has me questioning just how clever Beth may be to walk the line between agitating Dennis and sending him over the edge. Lots of paths to take from here and you're very good at having me pondering what comes next!

Aww, thank you :-). I still have a few ideas for different results, but I'll let the characters decide some of the detail.

I love when that happens!
Comment from Jesse James Doty
This has me hooked! You kept my interest from the moment this story began. I am thrilled and excited to know who are the others. Are they other women who have not pleased him as well so they get murdered in any way imaginable?
Or does he finally set them free?
These are the questions I am left now to ponder and I can't wait to read more of this to know how it ends.
Thanks for the exciting entertainment!

Thank you, Jesse :-). I'm going to enjoy taking this forward - I have a few ideas with one concept at the core. I hope I can keep it interesting!

Comment from Judy Lawless
I thought I might have missed this while I was away, Mike. I'm so glad I didn't. This could be creepy; it could be a psychological thriller, which I usually avoid, but you've got me intrigued enough to continue reading. Excellent work.

Thank you so much :-). I was starting to doubt this but the last few reviews (especially yours) have reminded me not to fret, and to enjoy getting on with my story!

Comment from WLHall
I'm following this script and I have to say I'm more intrigued. I think Beth is starting to feel even more fear when she said 'Others?' to herself. Can she continue to cover her panic that must be going through her?Interesting, looking forward to future "sessions"

Thank you for seeing that she is covering her emotions - what matters is how she is under the surface, and being a script, that's more open to interpretation than usual :-)

Comment from Carol Hillebrenner
I'm not sure Beth realizes what danger she is in. Somehow calling your captor a limpdick seems like going too far. You have an interesting storyline. Your bad guy puts up with a lot, as if he actually is a psychologist. But he is also a depraved nut.

Comment from Wayne Fowler
Well written.
I guess, in Beth's position, trying to get Dennis' goat might be her best choice, as risky as it may be. But still, I can't see that as getting her released.
Good luck with it.

Comment from Sandra Stoner-Mitchell
Oh, I don't like the sound of that! I wonder if anyone is worried about her, reported her missing. He sounds like he's a serial something or other. How far can she move? Can she get hold of some of those books? Okay, I'll have to wait to get the answers! This is a great story, Mike. I'm really enjoying it. :)) Sandra xxx

Thank you, Sandra - it's good to know someone is willing to wait lol. Because she's not quivering in fear, I seem to have confused a couple of reviewers. I like to think there are all sorts of ways we might respond to situations, not just the ones we've been taught to expect by television.

There is nothing confusing about this. She is behaving in a way that she believes will get her out of there. As each tactic fails, she tries another. Perfectly natural to me. Oh, I might be prepared to wait ... but not toooooo long!! :))
