Character: Jasmine
Age Range: 28–35
Type: Childcare Director
Overview:
Jasmine is a respected childcare director whose polished exterior hides a vulnerable and conflicted core. Naive and a little desperate for love and stability, she gets entangled in Michael’s scheme to scam his wives for insurance money. Though outwardly quiet and reserved, Jasmine is far from passive—she is observant, calculated, and willing to bend morality when she believes it secures her future.
INT. JASMINE'S HOUSE - BEDROOM - NIGHT
JASMINE lies in bed, breathing shallow and labored. Her water glass sits empty on the nightstand. Moonlight streams through curtains.
She tries to reach for her phone but her arm won't cooperate. Panic creeps across her face. She hears a noise
JASMINE
(weakly)
What... what's happening? Hello? Who’s there?
A SHADOW moves in the doorway. Michael steps into the light, calm and composed.
JASMINE (CONT'D)
(shocked whisper)
What did you do to me?
Michael we were suppose to be a team?
MICHAEL
YEA thats what you thought.
He sits in the chair beside her bed, completely at ease. Like visiting a sick friend.
JASMINE drowsy (coughing)
I can’t breathe, help me please.
Michael grins
Jasmine's eyes dart to the water glass, understanding.
JASMINE
You poisoned me? We had a deal. I helped you.
The insurance money... our new
life together...
68.
Malik chuckles softly, shaking his head.
MICHAEL
Jasmine, baby. You really thought
I'd run away with you?
Her breathing becomes more labored. Tears stream down her face.
JASMINE
I gave you everything. My
marriage. My friends. My life
MALIK
And I appreciate YOU it was fun while it lasted but you know too much.
JASMINE
(desperate)
I would never tell anyone. You
know that. I love you, please
