yikes. got to page 2 and already felt like i was in an uphill battle trying to read this.
some suggestions, right off the bat:

1. save as a .pdf - you'll get more reads (at least you'll get more people to try).
2. omit camera angles from your action lines
3. don't need a colon after the character speaks
4. dialogue is waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay too on the nose. people don't talk like that.

on the upside, your logline is good. i was interested, anyway.

good luck with it.
