INT - LIVING ROOM - LATE EVENING 

The camera slowly pans around a living room to reveal a man SLUMPED on the sofa in his vest and boxer shorts. The man has a glum display on his face, appearing vacant of all expression. 

The man and part of the room is solely illuminated by the dim, pale light of the television screen. What sounds like a football match can be heard coming from the television speakers. 

The camera zooms towards the man's widening eyes as he LOOKS down at the remote control shaking on the arm rest of the sofa. A rumble can be heard as the camera reveals the entire sofa SHAKING as well.

The camera is now behind the man showing a wide angle view which covers the length of the sofa. the A large crash causes the tremors to subside. 

The man STARES in horror as two American footballers RUN into the room KNOCKING ornaments and objects from tables, ROARING at each other. They PASS the ball to one another as they do this before leaving the room.

They are closely followed by a an athlete SPRINTING through the lounge. A footballer KICKS a ball across the room and RUNS after it.

After the sporty crowd has vacated the room, one man RIDES a bicycle through the front room, SOUNDING the little bell on his handlebars. He administers a small NOD of acknowledgement to the bewildered man. 

The camera appears peeking over the shoulder of the cyclist at the man SITTING on the sofa, appearing amazed by what he has just witnessed in his own home. The cyclist RIDES off before the camera cuts to the television displaying the 13 Strides logo flickering on the screen.
