Treatment First Draft

"Blown"

A huge explosion sounds signaling the end of the Bay Bridge's life. Smoke begins to fill the streets of downtown San Francisco and Masha finds herself face down on the concrete. Next thing she knows, two beefy hands are grabbing her around the shoulders, lifting her up and another pair of hands are shoving a bag over her head and zipties around her wrists. She's thrown into the back of what seems to be an armored truck. As Masha lays there she hears, a cold, female voice speaking somewhere in the back of the truck, but she's too disoriented to locate where exactly the voice is coming from. The voice is the last things she remembers before she blacks out. Flash forward to a month later. Masha is now positioned at a desk with an elaborate computer set up in front of her. Other people her age are working around her and a stern, young woman is watching them from inside a doorway. This is the Terrorist Tracking (TT) wing of the DHS building in San Francisco. Masha is the head of the TT wing and is responsible for locating all of the self named "XNetters" and turning them in to the DHS. After Masha was kidnapped by the DHS, they managed to convince her to join "their side" and help them prevent another terrorist attack from happening. It took a few days without food, some slaps across the face, and a few bladder problems to get her to agree, but the DHS finally got her. She proved to be an equitable asset to the DHS, tracking down numerous big-name teens who were responsible for planning against eh DHS. However, Masha has her own ideas about what her job at the DHS entails. Lately, she's been using coded emails to get in touch with the head honcho himself - Marcus Yallow. Together, along with Marcus's girlfriend Ange, they've been devising various ways in which to screw over the DHS and eventually blow the lid off of what the DHS did to them and many other citizens of San Francisco. Masha, Marcus, and Ange manage to plan the one event that will completely throw off the DHS and open up the perfect opportunity for the lid to be blown except for one thing.. Ange is also an undercover DHS agent. And one who cares more about catching "criminals" like Marcus and Masha than encouraging freedom and privacy for all.
