Coursework Progress

Two of our original actors couldn't refilm, so we had to recast the main character and henchman. Yesterday we filmed the scene again and it went really well and there were some good shots. Today we finished editing the footage including titles; however the overall time only came to a minute or just under. The maximum time for the opening sequence is 2 minutes 30 seconds, so the overall time being under a minute isn't good enough for the coursework. 
To increase our time and to develop the story I wrote another scene to add.
This is the new scene:

OWEN walks into the room. Sitting at a computer is a MYSTERIOUS CHARACTER who is centred in the middle of the shot; she/he gets up and leaves in a hurry pushing past OWEN. The MYSTERIOUS character leaves the room (match on action), they look in their bag and realise they’ve left something important behind, she/he looks into the room watching OWEN as he discoveries the memory stick. (Point of view shot from MYSTERIOUS CHARACTER)
OWEN goes to the computer and realises a memory stick has been left behind, he turns back but the MYSTERIOUS CHARACTER hides out of the view of OWEN, OWEN then turns back to the computer and the MYSTERIOUS CHARACTER comes out of hiding looking in nervously. To look for clues OWEN looks in the files (and out of curiosity) to figure out whose memory stick it is.
As he is going is looking in the files he stumbles upon something that shocks him and gasps. The MYSTERIOUS CHARACTER leaves and walks down the corridor and makes an important phone call whilst walking to MR G.
MYSTERIOUS CHARACTER: We have a problem.
The scene then returns to OWEN who is typing into Google ‘The Hendermann Deal’ but there are no results. OWEN then types in ‘The Search Engine.’
End of scene.
