News anchor/TV Personality on a talk show: Carrie and Elijah

She’s covering a news story about birds.

She’s interviewing an ornithologist.

She can’t stop acting like a bird, even as she tries her best to be human.

Her family is so proud of her, she’s come so far…(phone call with her mom)

Her mom, on the phone (when she tells her mom about the new job): “Just to think, you know, you had a rough start. But look at you now. Now you’re on TV.” (This echoes in her mind as a VO, at the end, as she walks down the street, devouring police officers, choppers fly in and try to take her out; and the media shows up on the scene, with their cameras)

Crowey meltdown on air

Crows: talk a lot, mimic, are attracted to shiny things, nest, are easily bored, hoard, attack weaker birds, looove carrion, scavenge, mob, have nuanced languages with elaborate regional dialects on par with English in terms of linguistic complexity, are violent and go straight for the eyes.
