SC 1 INT. CLUB HOUSE – NIGHT
CAMERA opens on The DJ scratching on the turn tables which
makes everyone to hail him. The CAMERA pans on the crowd of
revellers in the club house dancing away to hot dance tunes.
We see a handsome young man Damola dancing with a girl.
DAMOLA

a drink and looking at the revellers.

Damola goes to two girls chatting with themselves. From
Richard’s POV we see him talking with the girls and pointing
at Richard. (Inaudible to the audience) Both girls walk up
sexily to Richard who looks confused.
CLUB GIRL 1
Hello handsome, mo gbo pe o need some spark ninu aye e.Emi
Doctor je tide lati wo e san.

The girls continue insulting themselves. Meanwhile Damola goes
to sit in the lounge beside another girl.
DAMOLA
O se wa je pe iwo nikan lo da wa? Omo to dun bi won yi deserve
much more.
GIRL 1
Ta lo so fun e pe mo da wa?
A hand taps Damola who looks back and sees a muscular guy
standing behind him with a scowl on his face. Damola smiles
sheepishly as he stands up.
DAMOLA
Ore mi...
Damola extends his hand for a handsake but the guy just folds
his arms as he looks intently at Damola who has fear written
all over his face as he withdraws his hand.
CAMERA cuts to Bimpe and Bukola still insulting each other.
BUKOLA
Iwo to bin sonu, omo ale osi.
BIMPE

A girl comes to them.

Bimpe and Bukola look at the direction club girl 3 is pointing
at. The girls go to Damola who is grabbed by the angry
muscular guy. Meanwhile Richard with the girls (who are
touching him sexily) notice his friend is in trouble.
RICHARD
Eh ...excuse me.
He hurries to a corner and starts screaming fire, fire, fire.
Everybody is alarmed on hearing that and there is a stampede
to get out of the club. Muscular guy loses grip on Damola who
uses opportunity to flee. Muscular guy notices and gives chase
with Bimpe and Bukola following him.
BUKOLA (SHOUTING)
E maje ki bobo olori buruku salo O!
Damola meets Richard who calls him and guides him out of the
club amidst the stampede.

A lot of people are trying to run out of the club. Damola and
Richard get to their car and enter. The muscular guy runs out
and holds on to Damola’s car as they drive off but loses grip.

SC 4 INT. DAMOLA/RICHARD’S APARTMENT- DAY
Damola is still in bed asleep. Richard comes in fully dressed
and walks to the curtains which he draws open bringing in
sunlight which disturbs Damola who wakes up grudgingly and
groans.
RICHARD

SC 5 EXT. UNIVERSITY CAMPUS - DAY
Establishment shot of a busy university campus where students
are moving around.
SC 6 INT. CLASSROOM – DAY
Professor Orimoloye is lecturing a class on marketing 302.
UNFORGIVABLE WRITTEN BY JOVI BABS AND OLAMILEKAN DANIELS
PROF ORIMOLOYE
The principle of place is a very important attribute in the
marketing mix. The location of a business can make or mar any
business as this will affect the visibility of the business to
potential customers.
Damola comes to the class and is aghast when he sees that
professor Orimoloye is in the class. He shrugs and walks
briskly into class and takes a seat.
PROF ORIMOLOYE
Customers will easily spot a business located on a busy
street than one located in an inner street. Young man, why are
you coming into my class at this time?
DAMOLA
(Stands) I’m sorry sir. My alarm clock malfunctioned this
morning.
The class laughs. Professor Orimoloye walks towards him.
PROF ORIMOLOYE
When I say that most of you won’t pass my course you all think
I’m being wicked but I’m merely stating a fact. You children
expect everything on a platter of gold yet you are not ready
to work hard for it. I’m sure you’re one of those whose aim in
this university is to sample all sorts of entertainment
available as I have never seen you in my class before.
DAMOLA
But I attend your classes sir.
UNFORGIVABLE WRITTEN BY JOVI BABS AND OLAMILEKAN DANIELS
PROF ORIMOLOYE
Then prove it by giving me your case study on the five p’s of
marketing.
Damola gets his assignment from his bag and gives it to the
lecturer who peruses it.
PROF ORIMOLOYE
I am impressed. Did you do this yourself?
DAMOLA
Yes sir. Most of the business owners stay in my estate so I
had the chance to interview them for the case study.
PROF ORIMOLOYE
Good. But make sure you get a new alarm clock as I won’t
tolerate this lateness in my class again.
DAMOLA
Yes sir. Thank you sir.
Damola goes to his seat relieved.
SC 7 EXT.FACULTY FOYER - DAY
It is a beehive of activities as students throng along the
foyer. Some are relaxing having finished the day’s lecture. We
see Richard in the midst of colleagues discussing and making
analysis from a gigantic textbook in their middle. Damola
saunters towards Richard and his classmates.

RICHARD

Sounds of laughter rent the air to distract them from their
argument. They look at the source of the laughter and see
three girls coming towards their direction.
SC 8 EXT. FACULTY FOYER - CONTINUOUS
A group of 3 female students giggle as they stroll along the

nods back while Richard stares intensely at Sewa.

Close up on Richard still looking at Sewa who looks back and
then continues on with her friend. Richard remembers how he
met her some days earlier.
SC 9 (FLASHBACK) EXT. UNIVERSITY GROUNDS - DAY
The words ‘A couple of days earlier’ show up on the screen
signifying a flashback. Richard is walking to class when he
sees someone and stops. CAMERA reveals Sewa who seems confused
as she holds a bunch of documents. Richard is still staring at
her when she sees him and walks towards him. Richard’s heart
start to beat faster as Sewa comes closer.

Oh ma binu. E je ka ma lo.This way.
Richard leads the way. Sewa follows him wondering at Richard’s
strange behaviour.
SC 10 INT. KEMI’S HOUSE– NIGHT
CAMERA opens on Kemi screaming for joy as Damola is having sex
with her. Her father suddenly storms in. He’s surprised at
what he sees. Kemi notices and pushes Damola off when she
notices her father. They are both naked under the bedsheets.
FATHER
Ehn?Ninu ile mi?
The two of them look ashamed and can’t talk. Father storms
out. The sound of the father cocking a gun alarms the young
lovers and they jump out of bed. Damola runs out in his boxers
holding his clothes in a bundle. We see him sprint across the
living room as the father shoots at him with a hunting rifle
but misses. The father chases him outside. Damola rushes out
of the compound and runs for dear life. The father rushes out
and shoots at him but misses. He curses and goes inside.
SC 11 INT. GIRL’S HOSTEL – NIGHT
In a hostel room two girls Angela and Mosun are dressing up
excitedly for a night out. Sewa is also in the room packing
her books in readiness to go and read.

CAMERA shows a class with some students studying. We see Sewa
among these studious students. Richard is passing by looking
for something when he sees Sewa. (Who is the object of his
search) He checks himself vigorously to see that he’s
presentable to the extent of tucking in his shirt. Then he
gathers courage and walks tentatively into the class. He goes
to Sewa.

montages accompanied by fast beating soundtrack.

a friend request to Sewa on facebook.
The second montage shows him sending a text to Sewa saying
‘how are you doing Sewa’.He is just coming from the lecture
hall.

conversation when she gets the text but she ignores the text
and continues talking.
The fourth montage shows him checking his facebook account on
his blackberry at home but he’s disappointed when there’s no
response.
The fifth montage shows him at school sending a text saying ‘I
hope you are doing well’ to Sewa who is some meters away from
him but she looks at the phone and ignores it. The
disappointment is plain on his face.
The sixth montage shows Sewa in class receiving a text.
Richard is at the window outside her class watching her
reactions (She disregards it) but is disappointed again.

honoured his friend request. He throws the blackberry on the
table and flops on his bed in frustration.

chemistry. He finds none. Damola greets Richard in his

She picks one of Damola’s shirts and sees a woman’s lipstick
on it. She is moved to tears at she looks at the shirt that
confirms Damola’s lack of respect for her. She gathers herself

reacts to the pain she feels as she masticates. Richard sees
this and feels very sorry for her.
RICHARD
Pele. Abi kin da pada fun won ni?
Sewa moves the food away from her. Richard gestures to one of
the waiters to come clear the table.
The waiter clears the table. Richard pathetically looks at
Sewa who looks away.

Sewa experiences excruciating pain which makes her to fall
down and scream. Priscilla notices and rushes to her aid.

DOCTOR
The results of the lab test for the culture we took from your

Sewa is shocked. Priscilla is dumbfounded.
DOCTOR
We discovered some abnormal cancerous cells in the inner
lining of your pelvic area. The result tallied with what you
complained about pain in your plevic region and abnormal
vaginal discharge. (BEAT) We will have to do a scan in order
to ascertain the level the cancer has spread over your
body.For that we will have to refer you to our gynaecologist
Dr. Dakolo.
PRISCILLA
Is it something that can be cured?
DOCTOR
It depends on the level at which the cancer has spread. It
could be benign or malignant.
Priscilla holds Sewa’s hand who is still stuuned by the
outcome of the test.

SC 46 INT. HOSPITAL – GYNAECOLOGIST’S OFFICE – DAY
Sewa is seated while the gynaecologist hands over the result
of the test to her.
GYNAECOLOGIST
This is the outcome of the scan that was carried out.
Sewa flips open the paper and reads through while the doctor
explains further.
GYNAECOLOGIST
The cancer you have is at an advanced stage, level four. It
has invaded some other parts of the body far away from the
UNFORGIVABLE WRITTEN BY JOVI BABS AND OLAMILEKAN DANIELS
uterus. Organs like the liver, lungs and the fallopian tubes
have been affected by the cancerous cells.
Sewa is shaken out of place. She is amidst tears. She could
not find the right words to say
SEWA
What…?
GYNAECOLOGIST
I am sorry, Madam. Uterine cancer is a terminal disease. The
best we can do is try to buy you more time byperforming a
surgery to remove the ovaries, the fallopian tubes, nearby
lymph nodes and part of the vagina. It will slow the spread of
the cancer cells but it will not cure the cancer completely
and most importantly you will be unable to get pregnant.
Sewa bursts out into hot tears.
SEWA
Ah! Aye mi baje! Tani mo se ti ofe dariji mi! kinni mo se!
kilese mi!
GYNAECOLOGIST
Im sorry Madam but that’s the way it is. I will advice you to
go home and think about if you want to proceed with the
surgery. Like I said earlier it will not cure the cancer but
it will buy you more time to live.
Sewa weeps uncontrollably.

Sewa inside. Omotilewa is with them. Priscilla comes out of
the driver’s seat of the car and goes to the booth of the car
to remove Sewa’s luggage. Omotilewa comes out with her own
belongings.
Sewa hesitates from coming out of the car. Priscilla urges her
to come out of the car. Sewa reluctantly steps out of the car.
They all move together towards the house.
SC 48 INT. DAMOLA’S HOUSE – BEDROOM – NIGHT
The whole environment is still and quiet except for the
rantings coming out of Damola’s house. Damola is back from
work and Sewa has just told him about the cancer she has.

Richard nods his head. He heads out of the door realising that
he still loved Sewa.
SC 52 INT. SCHOOL – CLASSROOM – DAY
Sewa is seated with the class teacher of Omotilewa.
TEACHER
Good day, Mrs Oyepitan. I asked to see you because of an
urgent situation concerning your daughter.
SEWA
I hope she has not done anything wrong, madam?
TEACHER
No, no not all Mrs Oyepitan. It’s just that Tilewa’s academic
performance has been dwindling for a while. What makes it all
the more disturbing is that she‘s been one of the better
students but recently she doesn’t pay attention in her clasees
and she is usually withdrawn and keeps to herself.
Sewa looks at her daughter who looks away from her.
TEACHER
As her teacher, I’d like to see my students perform at their
optimum best as you wouls as a parent. I hope it would not be
out of place if I ask you if there are any challenges at home
that might be militating against Tilewa’s performance because
UNFORGIVABLE WRITTEN BY JOVI BABS AND OLAMILEKAN DANIELS
the slide in her performance has been shocking to me to say
the least.
CAMERA closes up on Sewa who feels bad.
SC 53 INT. EATERY - ICE CREAM JOINT – DAY
Sewa collects two ice cream cones from the counter of an
eatery and goes to join Olatilewa who’s seated. She gives her

Sewa is back in the gynaecologist’s office to give her
decision about the surgery.
GYNAECOLOGIST
Have you made your mind up, Mrs Oyepitan?
After a brief pause Sewa nods.
SEWA
Yes I have doctor Dakolo. I will go ahead with the surgery.
GYNAECOLOGIST
Are you sure of what you’re saying, considering the risks
involved which include barreness, Mrs Oyepitan?
SEWA
Doctor, I already have a daughter who I want to live for. When
can you schedule the surgery?
UNFORGIVABLE WRITTEN BY JOVI BABS AND OLAMILEKAN DANIELS
Doctor Dakolo brings out the consent forms and hands it to
her.

The office is lavishly ostentatious, one befitting for a

SC 57 INT. DAMOLA’S HOUSE – BEDROOM - DAY
Sewa is at home in a distraught state over how her life has
turned out to be especially with the cancer. She remembers
when she and Damola were in the university and she was wooing
him.
We see montages of quick shots from scene 17 where she was
talking to Damola, scene 18 where she was calling Damola on
UNFORGIVABLE WRITTEN BY JOVI BABS AND OLAMILEKAN DANIELS
phone, scene 23 where she seduced Damola and scene 24 where
she was talking in bed with Damola. These four shots are
interspersed with her present state where everthing turned out
differently. She gets up and looks at her wedding picture with
Damola. Hot tears flood her eyes while she’s looking at the
picture.
SC 58 INT. DAMOLA’S HOUSE – LIVING ROOM – NIGHT
Damola comes angrily into the living room shouting Sewa’s

Sewa stomps out of the living room. Damola calls her.
DAMOLA
Oun walk out on me Sewa! Wo o ti te.
Damola makes to go and confront his wife but is taken aback
when Sewa comes out with a knife which she point’s threatenly
UNFORGIVABLE WRITTEN BY JOVI BABS AND OLAMILEKAN DANIELS
at Damola. Damola is amused as Sewa is shaking but holds the
knife firmly.
SEWA
To ba bi e da ko su mo simi! Iwo okunrin iranu yi!!
Damola just laughs as he moves nearer.
SEWA
Damola mo n so fun e! mo n so fun e o!
Damola pounces on his wife and after a fierce struggle manage
to wrestle the knife away. The knife falls onto the settee
with its sharp edge facing up. Damola then starts to beat up
Sewa who screams.In the midst of this Omotilewa rushes out
from her bedroom shouting.
OMOTILEWA
Daddy! Daddy!! fi mummy sile.
She jumps on her father and starts hitting her. In an angry
rage her father hits her and pushes her away. Omotilewa’s
screams pierce the air making her fighting parents to stop.
CAMERA reveals Omotilewa getting up from the chair where the
knife Sewa was previously holding landed. Omotilewa has being
injured by the knife and there is blood all over her. The
parents are alarmed and frantically try to rescue Omotilewa
who’s getting weak. Damola gets his car keys while Sewa is
holding Omotilewa, screaming and weeping.
DAMOLA
Wo, e je ka gbe lo si hospital.
UNFORGIVABLE WRITTEN BY JOVI BABS AND OLAMILEKAN DANIELS
SC 59 INT. HOSPITAL – DAY
Olatilewa is wheeled by two nurses on a guerney into the
hospital with her frantic parents following frantically
behind. As Omotilewa is wheeled into a room, some nurses stop
Damola and Sewa from following her and direct them to the
waiting room. They both sit down apart from each other and
steal glances at themselves.
SC 60 INT. DOCTOR’S OFFICE – MOMENTS LATER
Damola and Sewa are before the doctor in his office.
DOCTOR
Your daughter is in intensive care as she’s in a coma. She was
badly injured as we detected internal bleeding apart from the
external one which means that there’s a chance that a vital
organ might have been pierced. We’ve had to stabilise her but
the prognosis for her doesn’t look good. The injuries were
really bad but we are trying our best to see that she
recovers. We are not promising anything because the situation
is dicey and can go either way.
SEWA
Is there anything else that can be done to save Omotilewa?
DOCTOR
I hope you can pray because that is the only thing I can
recommend.
Damola and Sewa look at themselves having being shocked by the
doctor’s information.
