Alex: Stop it! Get away from there! Stop![cite: 1]
Jumpsuit Woman: You thought you could bury him alive, didn't you, Alex? You thought no one would check the latch![cite: 1]
Sarah: Somebody stop her! She's destroying the casket![cite: 1]
Alex: I will kill you myself if you don't step back from that coffin![cite: 1]
The woman swung the claw hammer a second time, smashing the heavy brass lock into pieces[cite: 1]. Splinters of polished white wood flew across the pristine marble floor, landing near Sarah's silk train[cite: 1]. The security guards hesitated, staring at the weapon in her hand as she stood over the damaged casket, breathing heavily[cite: 1]. Tears mixed with dirt and sweat rolled down her pale cheeks[cite: 1].
Jumpsuit Woman: Why are you so afraid, Alex? Why are your hands shaking?[cite: 1]
Alex: You belong in a mental facility! You escaped from the county ward![cite: 1]
Jumpsuit Woman: I didn't escape to hurt anyone! I ran four miles in the heat because I knew what you were going to do today![cite: 1]
Sarah: Alex, do you know this woman? Tell me who she is right now![cite: 1]
Alex: She's a former employee, Sarah! My father fired her two years ago for stealing company records! She's obsessed with our family![cite: 1]
Jumpsuit Woman: He's lying to you, bride! Ask him why his father's life insurance policy was doubled three weeks ago! Ask him why the autopsy was skipped![cite: 1]
Sarah: What? What is she talking about, Alex?[cite: 1]
Alex: She's insane! She's making up stories to embarrass us in front of the press! Guards, I pay your salaries, tackle her now![cite: 1]
The chief security officer stepped forward, drawing his taser from his belt[cite: 1]. The woman didn't move away from the coffin[cite: 1]. Instead, she dropped the hammer onto the carpet and pressed her cheek directly against the smooth white wood of the casket lid[cite: 1]. She closed her eyes, weeping intensely as the entire church watched in stunned silence[cite: 1].
Jumpsuit Woman: Alex... I knew it[cite: 1]. I can hear it[cite: 1].
Alex: Shut your mouth![cite: 1]
Jumpsuit Woman: Listen to it! Listen to the wood![cite: 1]
A low, distinct sound echoed from inside the sealed white casket—a soft, frantic thumping, followed by the muffled scraping of fingernails against satin lining[cite: 1]. The room went completely deathly quiet[cite: 1]. Guests in the front rows stood up from their seats, their faces turning pale with horror as the sound grew louder[cite: 1].
Sarah: Oh my God... who is in there?![cite: 1]
Jumpsuit Woman: It's your father-in-law, Sarah! And he's suffocating in there while your groom stands here waiting to sign the marriage certificate![cite: 1]
Sarah: Alex... answer me! Is your father alive in that box?![cite: 1]
Alex: No! It's an illusion! She put a device in there! It's a setup![cite: 1]
Jumpsuit Woman: Open the lid, Alex! If he's dead, open the lid and prove me wrong right now![cite: 1]
