The changes made from my last script is the original "Scene 3". As it took my opening scene over the 2 minute mark we were restricted to; making it harder for the audience to fully understand the whole story within my opening scene, as the ill mother helped emphasis why our protagonist wasn't going to school and had 'drugs' on him. But it was the only scene that could be taken out with the narrative still making sense.
