SOMNAMBULA — Thriller Screenplay
Laura Chen is a pediatric nurse, and for six months she has been losing time in the middle of the night. Her husband David, a loving and attentive software engineer, installs a smart home camera system to capture the episodes and help her doctors understand what is happening. The footage is damning. Then Laura notices a ninety second gap in one of the recordings, recovers the unedited version, and watches a scene that changes everything she believed about her condition, her marriage, and the conservatorship petition David has been quietly preparing.
Laura's husband installed the cameras to prove she was sleepwalking. On the tape, she sees him get out of bed, put on a wig, leave the house, come back, and say the exact sentence she has been waking up to every morning.
