The script is missing punctuation marks - no periods, question marks. Take another shot at at.

Page 1: How do we know Amy has been crying for quite some time? I think Amy saying 'make yourself comfortable', is weird coming from someone who just attempted suicide. How is she so rational at this point? Other than that, I thought you wrote a really intriguing script, that I think you should expand on.

Hi Eric,
Almost all your sentences start with either Amy or George. Try changing the perspective every once in a while, it will make for a much better read.
As already stated, there is a lot of missing punctuation.
Quoted Text AMY Who are you |
I'm confused, didn’t she just say George a few lines back?
Quoted Text GEORGE Your right and maybe I never will but please don’t do this
|
You're
Quoted Text AMY Do you have a cell phone? GEORGE I’m not really sure what that is AMY Well you can stay here until you remember
|
Until you remember what a cell phone is?
Amy lies on the floor. Need to google the difference between lay and lie.
Quoted Text GEORGE You’ll soon find someone who needs you a lot more than you need me |
Huh?
Lots of awkward writing and grammar issues.
I have absolutely no idea what that is about so I can comment on the story.
You will benefit from reading more scripts and reading some articles on screenwriting.
All the best.
