BFA Idea

While waiting on the bus to take him home, and a strange man sits by him with a suite case labeled "Top Secret." The character lets his curiosity get the better of him and he tries many ploys to sneak the suite case from this stranger. He finally succeeds in getting the suite case and opens it up. It turns out to be empty. The character looks back at the stranger, which is now nowhere to be found. When he turns back toward the case he sees the stranger and the stranger eats him. The stranger will then be back at the bus stop like nothing happened. This will be a classic tale of "Curiosity killed the cat."

Here is an example of how the final film will look
