Draft 1
A young veteran struggling with PTSD shares a tiny apartment with his boyfriend. One evening they get into a stupid, jealous argument, and the boyfriend kicks him out of the bedroom. He wakes up on the couch to find the front door chained and bolted shut. He hadn't even heard the power tools in the night... Did he really drink that much? Was he drugged? He tries to confront his boyfriend, but he's locked himself in the bedroom, and refuses to open up. Alone, confined, without his meds, the veteran begins to unravel...
