Int - Flat
Step 1Establishing Shot - Hallway of Grace and Carmen's flat. Grace has just come home from work.
Step 2Establishing Shot - Flat Lounge Carmen greets Grace.(Similar to that of the establishing shot used to show the open plan apartment of Theresa and Simon in the film 'Guess Who'. Similar if not the same camera angles/movements. However not the same greeting as it would be too exaggerated.)
Step 3 - Flat Lounge Carmen asks Grace about her day.
Step 4 - Flat LoungeGrace informs Carmen about the promotion.Before departing from the lounge and entering the kitchen, with Carmen following close behind.
Step 5 - Flat KitchenCarmen congratulates Grace, hugs her, gives her a peck on the cheek, "Wine, Champagne whatever you want tonight baby." Carmen.Grace gets a class of jack daniels before going back to the lounge with Carmen following close behind.

Step 8 - Present, Grace miserably tells Carmen to stop celebrating as she has more to say on the matter.
Step 9 - Carmen goes ballistic after hearing about Grace's homophobic boss."You can not do those sort of things in this day and age. It's the equivalent to being racist." Carmen."When you own the company you can do whatever you like." Grace
Step 10 - "What are you going to do?" Carmen.
Step 11 - Grace does not answer, has her arms folded/crossed across her chest with a look of disdain on her face.
Step 12 - Carmen continues to prompt Grace for answer as she seems a bit confused by Grace's non-responsive state.
Step 13 - Grace informs Carmen to leave it, as she looks away guiltily.
Step 14 - Argument begins between Carmen and Grace."What do you mean leave it? This is something serious!" Carmen.
Step 15 - Grace proclaims she does not know what she is going to do. Carmen attempts to storm off and in doing so we see Grace pull an engagement ring out of her trouser pocket."This is not how I visualised today going, it was meant to be a normal day. No arguments, no stress no nothing. I intended to make you my life partner, wife. So will you stop arguing with me and answer me this? Will you marry me?" Grace.
