The Mission Begins

MANSION DRIVEWAY – NIGHT

Natural stone paving driveway. Dim lights hang from poles

that run parallel. Immaculate green grass goes hand in hand

with the perfectly trimmed hedges.

Tyson’s Toyota Yaris putts itself towards the -

MANSION ENTRANCE

Stopped by a VALET, Tyson gets out of the car wearing a

draggy white shirt, track pants and flip flops.

MANSION LOBBY – NIGHT

Scores of people talk and snort cocaine amongst themselves

in separate groups. Expensive dresses, tuxedos and diamonds

dress the upper class citizens of Millhaven.

Tyson smiles, takes two steps when he is cut off by:

MR. MEXICO, not Mexican, 70, tiny, decrepit, bound to an

automatic wheelchair. A little tuxedo oozes wealthy.

MR. MEXICO

I’ve been waiting a long time to see

you again, old friend.

Tyson smiles.

TYSON

Mr. Mexico.

Tyson shakes Mr. Mexico’s frail hand, gently.

Mr. Mexico looks Tyson up and down.

MR. MEXICO

Your wardrobe selections suggests

you’re not here to tempt fortune, Mr.

Margate.

Tyson looks around at all the snazzy folk racking coke.

TYSON

I never did find a tuxedo comforting,

Mr. Mexico.

Mr. Mexico smiles delightfully.

MR. MEXICO

Tell me, how’s your lovely wife,

Kiki, was her name?

TYSON

She’s very good. Won't be too lovely

if she finds out I'm here though.

MR. MEXICO

Don’t stress the matter, Mr. Margate.

My lips are sealed.

Mr. Mexico winks. Tyson smiles.

(CONTINUED)

12.

CONTINUED:

MR. MEXICO

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I

believe, Kiki was with child the last

time we met.

TYSON

My son, Junior, he’s growing up fast,

too fast.

MR. MEXICO

I’m very happy for you.

TYSON

Thank you, Mr. Mexico, It’s difficult

though, in these times.

MR. MEXICO

Well, there’s no place like home, is

there, Mr. Margate. Come!

Mr. Mexico leads Tyson to a set of stairs. A ramp runs

adjacent.

Mr. Mexico drives down the ramp while Tyson walks down the

stairs that lead to the --

MANSION’S MAIN HALL

Mr. Mexico beeps at people, people move. They continue

through the wealthy crowd.

MR. MEXICO

What has it been now, Mr. Margate?

Seven, eight years?

TYSON

Seven, I believe.

MR. MEXICO

Yes, my luck has shifted since your

departure. Yes, I have too much faith

in these up and coming underdogs.

Shame on me.

Tyson looks around at the beautiful house.

TYSON

I'm sure it's really taken it's toll.

Mr. Mexico stops. As does Tyson.

MR. MEXICO

Never mind that, Mr. Margate.

MR. MEXICO (cont'd)

I will make my own tonight. I have

the secret weapon.

TYSON

It's been a while, Mr. Mexico. I

can’t promise you anything.

Mr. Mexico laughs.

MR. MEXICO

Nonsense! Come!

Mr. Mexico waves for Tyson to keep following. They pass

through a spectacular opening that leads to the --

MANSION’S BACK YARD

Massive opening. Floodlights stand at each corner of the

yard. A boxing ring sits amidst a hefty crowd. Two monsters

of men stand in the ring:

BLACKS SHORTS, 30s, white, towers over his opponent:

RED SHORTS, 30s, black, stocky with a thick beard.

Punters throw money at the Bookies.

A JUNKIE, wears an “I’m not a part of the hipster fad” tee.

Bites his nails as he bets. Speaks with a strong COCKNEY

ACCENT -

JUNKIE

All on the red shorts.

The BOOKIE happily takes his money.

BACK TO MR. MEXICO AND TYSON.

MR. MEXICO

This is what you’re born for, Mr.

Margate.

Tyson follows Mr. Mexico to the side of the --

Black Shorts dominates. Dodges every punch thrown at him.

Taunts Red Shorts.

MR. MEXICO

You'll be fighting the winner and if

you win, I’ll give you five thousand

dollars to take home tonight.

Black Shorts throws a crashing hook and like a tonne of

bricks, Red Shorts crashes to the ground. See ya later.

Black Shorts throws his hands up in victory. Screams as if

he had just won the world heavyweight title.

Mr. Mexico CLAPS and CHEERS!

MR. MEXICO

Excellent.

Mr. Mexico turns to Tyson.

MR. MEXICO

(re: black shorts)

Izaak Wilston. He’s very dominant as

of late, but my money will be on you,

Mr. Margate.

Tyson stares up at Izaak. Izaak flaunts his victory.

MR. MEXICO (O.S.)

(over microphone )

Congratulations Mr. Wilston. You have

delivered an entertaining fight once

again and you will be rewarded

accordingly.

The crowd turns to a --

PODIUM

Mr. Mexico holds a microphone.

Tyson notices Mr. Mexico on the podium. Confused, he looks

down at where he was just seconds ago.

MR. MEXICO

(over microphone )

I hope everyone is enjoying their

evening. Don’t be shy, we have a

fountain full of punch and a bathtub

full of blow for anyone that’s losing

their buzz. We wouldn't want anyone

getting bored now would we? For our

next fight we have the in form, Izaak

Mr. Mexico drops the microphone. Wheels off stage.

A ROARING CROWD. Then --

BOOKIE

Bets! Bets! Place your bets!

JUNKIE (V.O.)

Yeah, all of it on the big white

fella.

FADE IN:

BOXING RING
NIGHT

Tyson stands in one corner. Calm, focused. He peels his

shirt off revealing a heavily tattooed and scarred body.

Behind the works of art and war is a physique that warrants

respect.

Izaak, in the other corner, jumps around, air punching.

The Referee calls both men into the middle of the ring.

Izaak snake eyes Tyson. Tyson looks to the ground.

REFEREE

You know the rules. No low blows, no

biting. Touch gloves if you want.

Both men touch gloves. Izaak backs up to his corner, doesn’t

take an eye off Tyson.

Tyson, tracks the ground as he walks to his corner.

DING DING. Tyson looks up. Game on.

Izaak bangs his fists together, cracks his neck, walks for

Tyson.

Tyson, calmly, meets him.

(CONTINUED)

16.

CONTINUED:

Izaak puts his hands up. Tyson puts his hands only

moderately up. Sloppy defense.

Izaak jabs twice. Connects with Tyson both times.

Tyson, un-phased by the solid hits, does not take an eye off

Izaak.

Izaak hits one more jab, then follows with a right hook.

Tyson weaves away from the hook. Counters with a jab of his

own. Connects.

RATTLED, Izaak shakes it off.

Izaak swings a monster left hook. Tyson ducks. Plants one on

Izaak’s ribs, followed by a jaw busting upper cut.

Lights out. Izaak hits the ropes, then CRASHES to the

ground.

The crowd. Silent.

Junkie’s heart skips a beat.

Tyson smiles. Throws his hands in the air. The crowd CHEERS

for their champion.

Junkie makes a run for it through the crowed.

MR. MEXICO (O.S.)

(over microphone )

And your winner is, Tyson Margate!

Tyson helps a DROWSY Izaak to his feet, then exits.

Izaak hits the deck as soon as Tyson jumps out.

MANSION LOBBY
MOMENTS LATER

Mr. Mexico hands Tyson a wad of cash.

MR. MEXICO

You’re going to make me a very happy

man if you continue to come back, Mr.

Margate.

TYSON

I can’t. This is it.

Mr. Mexico smiles.

(CONTINUED)

17.

CONTINUED:

MR. MEXICO

Farewell, old friend.

TYSON

Goodbye, Mr. Mexico.

Both men smile as Tyson exits.

A heavily tattooed arm taps Mr. Mexico on the shoulder. Mr.

Mexico turns. Greeted by:

MEXICAN, 30s, tattoos head to toe - gets down to Mr.

Mexico’s level. Speaks calmly.

MEXICAN

The project timepiece information

never arrived.

Mr. Mexico keeps a fake smile. Frustrated.

MR. MEXICO

Have you got the Englishman?

Mexican nods.

MR. MEXICO

Take him to the basement. Time to

find out if his brothers are as great

as he talks them up to be.

Hey numb nuts! Have you seen a limo

pull up?

TYSON

No, sir.

Grayson walks off.

Tyson spots Boss in the corner of his eye, staring at him as

if he were a complete idiot.

TYSON

(under his breath )

Fuck this.

Tyson approaches Boss.

BOSS

What the fuck do you think you’re

doing, boy?

Boss takes a step back. Sweat beads fall from his forehead.

Tyson holds himself back. Bites his tongue.

Takes a step back.

How’d the shit you get in?

Tyson looks around.

TYSON

The door was open, man.

Chubby realizes something, lowers his gun. Laughs as he

shakes his head.

CHUBBY

God dammit.

Tyson lowers his arms. Relieved. Smiles innocently.

A BUFF SECURITY GUARD, 30s, THICK GOLD CHAIN around neck -

runs in. Gun gripped. Ready for action.

Chubby waves him off.

CHUBBY

I’m sorry, It’s my bad. I left the

door open.

Buff shakes his head in frustration. Exits.

Chubby shows Tyson to the exit.

CHUBBY

Look, I’m sorry, the museum isn’t

open today.

TYSON

Hey, well, I was actually here about

a job. I'm a security guard.

TYSON’S CAR (MOVING)
AFTERNOON

Tyson drives down the freeway sucking down a large soda from

Slippery Jacks when --

500 METERS DOWN THE ROAD

A police car SCRAPES the barrier. Runs down the embankment,

then FLIPS and SMASHES into a tree.

TYSON

Holy fu -

TYSON’S HOME/MAIN BEDROOM – NIGHT

Kiki, sits on the bed, wiping away tears. Box of tissues

spread over the bed.

The door CREEKS open. Tyson enters.

TYSON

Baby.

Tyson rushes to Kiki. Kneels in front, takes her hand.

KIKI

you were never rostered to work.

No answer.

KIKI

You went back to that decrepit old

man didn't you?

TYSON

Baby, please I had to -

KIKI

- This isn’t the answer Tyson. You’re

better than that.

TYSON

Baby, please. I’m desperate.

KIKI

Were you lying about the job trail

tomorrow as well?

Tyson looks down. Kiki cries.

KIKI

I don’t even want to know.

TYSON

Baby, I need you to have faith in me.

KIKI

I do trust you, Tyson, but it’s hard.

You promised you would never go back

there and you did. You lied to me.

I fucked up, baby, I should have just

told you. I’m so sorry.

Kiki hesitantly lets Tyson comfort her.

said, you would have done the same.

KIKI

are we gonna do Tyson?

Tyson kisses Kiki on her head.

TYSON

I need to tell you something.

Kiki looks Tyson in his eyes.

DIGITAL CLOCK: Time flicks through from 1743 to 1828.

It’s okay baby, I’m gonna get a club

sandwich from Lilly’s Diner.

KIKI

You’re gonna turn into one of those

sandwiches.

Tyson laughs. Takes a seat next to Junior. Stares at him.

JUNIOR

What are you staring at?

Tyson turns to Kiki.

I don’t know how I did it, but I did,

somehow contribute to creating the

best looking kid on this earth. Thank

god he got the majority of his looks

Baby, this is what I do.

KIKI

TYSON

I will, baby, I promise. I love you.

LILLY’S DINER – DAY

A decent crowd at the local diner. Middle aged waitresses

slug out the daily grind. Patrons enjoy their late breakfast

and coffee.

A clock tells the time of 11.18am.

Tyson throws down the last of his club sandwich when Julian

Uyster exits the diner.

MANAGER

Hay, that guy didn’t pay.

Manager follows Julian out the door.

Tyson thoroughly enjoys the last bites of his club sandwich

when, from behind --

Julian (pg 6) casually walks for a BLACK BUGATTI ATLANTIC.

Manager follows, attempts to get his attention.

Shit.

The terrified crowd watches over as Tyson covers the dead

body with a table cloth.

Tyson spots a male EMPLOYEE, 20 - openly scared shitless.

Tyson waves him over.

TYSON

You have to get everyone outside,

away from the body. Call the cops,

tell them exactly what happened. I’m

sorry, buddy, but I gotta go.

Julian UYSTER - walks away from a smoked out BLACK E60 BMW

on the side of the road. Long black duffle bag hangs from

his shoulder. Cowboy boots CLAP against the asphalt road.

A PINK ENVELOPE sits in the back pocket of his jeans.

A HARLEY DAVIDSON rumbles past in the opposite direction.

Julian takes no notice.

Only the sound of a three inch straight through exhaust

SCREAMING in the distance catches his attention.

Julian needs a look. A BLACK BUGATTI ATLANTIC roars towards

him from behind.

Julian looks forward as the beautiful car approaches. Fast.

Without a look of fear. Julian walks onto the road. Right in

front of the speeding Atlantic.

The DRIVER SWERVES. Misses Julian by a thread.

shotgun from his duffle bag and BLOWS Redneck into next

A CLASSIC ROCK HIT plays on the radio.

Fuel light flashes.

SERVICE STATION 1 – DAY

Julian walks through the door. Greeted by a middle aged

Female ASIAN CLERK.

ASIAN CLERK

Good afternoon, sir.

Julian nods at Asian Clerk. Heads straight towards the back

of the shop to where the snacks are and makes himself a hot

dog.

Asian Clerk SCREAMS. Julian almost drops the mustard he's

about to squeeze onto his hot dog.

ROBBER 1 (O.S.)

ROBBER 1

You’re gonna empty the register into

a bag and you’re gonna do it fuckin’

quick or I'll put one of these

bullets through your big Asian brain.

You got that, mate?

Asian Clerk does exactly as she’s told.

Pressing the knife up to Asian Clerks shoulder, Robber 2

gets in her ear.

ROBBER 2

Grab some ciggies while you're at it,

Asian Clerk fills a paper bag with all the money from the

till. She throws a few packets of cigarettes in there too.

Robber 2 grabs the bag. Runs out of the store.

Julian maintains eye contact with Asian Clerk as he exits.

ATLANTIC (MOVING)– DUSK

SALLY’S SPORTS BAR/PARKING LOT – AFTERNOON

Run down establishment. For blue collar workers to enjoy

Friday afternoon beers. A “SALLY’S SPORTS BAR” sign above

Julian pulls up next to a STRETCHED LIMOUSINE.

The drunk slurs his words in an Australian accent.

DRUNK

SALLY'S SECURITY GUARD 1

Whatever, smelly, get out of here.

Drunk has had it. He turns to Security Guard 1. WHAM. He

KICKS him in his balls as hard as he can.

Security Guard 1 drops to his knees. Hands cupping his

balls. Teeth clenched. Agony.

Security Guard 2 body SLAMS Drunk to the ground. Puts his

knee in his back.

Julian does not blink an eye at the ruckus. He walks

straight past the commotion, into --

SALLY’S SPORTS BAR

An all American bar. Nothing flash. A handful of people

drink their sorrows away. One WAITRESS work the bar.

A beautiful vintage CLOCK sits above the door frame.

Julian enters. Susses the place. He spots Grayson (pg 20)

chatting with a beautiful BLONDE. They make eye contact.

Julian quickly takes his attention off Grayson and makes his

way to the --

BAR

A tight figured, diminutive WAITRESS, 35, with sandy locks

and a strong Southern American accent - looks Julian up and

down. Like what she sees.

WAITRESS

What can I get yah, darlin’?

JULIAN

Whatever you recommend. Darlin’.

Waitress smirks. Pours a beer, places it in front of Julian.

WAITRESS

That'll be four dollars.

Julian puts a twenty on the bar. Waitress does her thing.

Julian has a swig. Waitress returns with the change. Julian

pushes it back.

WAITRESS

Thank you kind sir. I’ll take extra

care of you tonight.

Waitress grabs a cloth and wipes the bar in front of Julian.

Julian takes another sip of his pint.

JULIAN

The kid over at the tables with the

young lady. What’s his name?

WAITRESS

You know that guy?

Julian shakes his head.

JULIAN

Waitress smiles.

WAITRESS

Tasmyn.

Julian cracks half a smile.

TASMYN

What brings you to Millhaven, Julian?

JULIAN

You're assuming I'm from out of town?

TASMYN

Am I wrong to assume that?

Julian looks to his right, to a MAN passed out on the bar,

drooling like a baby.

(CONTINUED)

33.

CONTINUED:

JULIAN

This place is a shit hole.

Tasmyn, flirtatiously taken aback. Cocks a brow.

TASMYN

Excuse me, Mr. Julian, but I like it.

JULIAN

Is that right.

Tasmyn rests her arms against the bar.

TASMYN

No, not really.

JULIAN

Why do you work here?

Tasmyn checks out the building. Shrugs her shoulders.

TASMYN

It's got air conditioning.

JULIAN

A positive attitude.

TASMYN

I like to look at the cup as half

full.

Tasmyn smiles.

JULIAN

You’re happy?

TASMYN

Yes, I am right now and that’s what

matters.

Julian nods. Agrees.

Tasmyn picks up a tray of pint glasses from the dishwasher

below her. Takes to them with a towel.

TASMYN

You work, Julian?

Julian shakes his head. Nope. Has another sip.

TASMYN

Not at all?

(CONTINUED)

34.

CONTINUED:

Julian puts his beer down. Shakes his head. Nope.

TASMYN

Why not?

Julian taps his fingers on the bar. Avoids the question.

TASMYN

How’d you pay for that drink?

JULIAN

That depends.

TASMYN

On what?

JULIAN

Do you want the truth?

Tasmyn looks Julian up and down.

TASMYN

Why do you think it’s okay for you

bludge, but everyone else has to do

hard yards.

JULIAN

No one has a gun to your head.

TASMYN

Yeah, not a gun with bullets, but

with debt and unhappiness and hunger

and dehydration.

JULIAN

As one that does none of what you do,

I'm very quenched.

TYSON

That's nice, you forget to mention as

to how and why?

JULIAN

Persistence is key, right?

Tasmyn gives Julian a questioning look.

Julian gives in.

JULIAN

I don't like people telling me what

to do.

(CONTINUED)

35.

CONTINUED:

Tasmyn, interested, waits for Julian to speak again.

TASMYN

Care to elaborate?

JULIAN

Being governed by someone who thinks

they're above others for something as

trivial as money is pathetic. And

this pecking order society has

created is unnatural and dangerous.

Tasmyn cocks her eyebrow.

TASMYN

Would you prefer to live like

animals, Julian?

JULIAN

We are animals.

TASMYN

Animals live in hierarchies.

JULIAN

Natural hierarchy is earned by

physical strength and aggression.

Ours is achieved by who has the

thickest wallets.

TASMYN

So, what would you suggest? We

eliminate money entirely? Because

that would just -

Julian interrupts.

JULIAN

- That, would steer us in the right

direction to legitimate freedom.

TASMYN

You know that's never gonna happen.

Looks like you'll just have to adapt

to our indecisive way of life.

Julian laughs to himself. Has a sip.

Tasmyn bites on her top lip. A flirtatious smirk.

SALLY’S SPORTS BAR/PARKING LOT – NIGHT

Arms locked, Tasmyn and Julian walk to --

JULIAN’S BUGATTI ATLANTIC

TASMYN

Wow! Julian, this car is amazing!

Julian, like a gentleman, opens the passenger door for

Tasmyn.

JULIAN

Oh, it’s not mine. I’m just...

Borrowing it.

Tasmyn gives Julian a horny, flirtatious smile.

TASMYN'S HOME/LOUNGE ROOM – NIGHT

Well presented. A decent sized flat screen TV suits the

clean room. A few clothes hang from the arm of the couch.

TASMYN

Take a seat sweetheart.

Julian takes a seat. Tasmyn grabs the clothes from the couch

arm, then plugs her phone into an iPod dock. She hits play.

She CRANKS: Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds - The Curse Of

Millhaven. She winks at Julian on her way into the kitchen.

Julian taps his finger against the lounge. Scouts the room.

Cupboard doors BANG from the kitchen.

TASMYN (O.S.)

Uggghh.. Where's that goddamn bottle!

Draws open. A glass SMASHES.

TASMYN (O.S.)

Fuck!

Tasmyn walks back on screen. A bottle of red in one hand,

two glasses in the other. She SINGS along with the music as

she walks seductively towards Julian.

She takes a seat next to Julian.

Red wine pours into a glass.

(CONTINUED)

37.

CONTINUED:

Tasmyn slides Julian a glass. Shuffles closer to him.

Like a champ, Tasmyn necks her glass of red in one hit, not

taking an eye off Julian.

Tasmyn snorts into her glass as she laughs to herself. Gives

Julian a competitive smirk.

Julian doesn't know how to feel.

Silence for a moment. Then -

TASMYN

Can I ask you a question?

JULIAN

That depends.

TASMYN

On what?

JULIAN

Do you want the truth?

Tasmyn takes a moment as she looks at Julian.

TASMYN

I could ask you the same question.

JULIAN

It doesn't matter to me.

Tasmyn, surprised a little.

TASMYN

You’re okay to tell me the truth?

Julian sniffs his wine. Smiles, then has a sip.

TASMYN

Why are you here?

JULIAN

Here?

TASMYN

In Millhaven.

JULIAN

Are you sure you want those answers?

Tasmyn raises a competitive eyebrow.

(CONTINUED)

38.

CONTINUED:

TASMYN

Don’t think I can handle it?

Julian stares into Tasmyn’s eyes.

Tasmyn puts her hand on Julian’s knee.

TASMYN

You’re an eccentric man, Julian. If I

was to stab the dark; your answers

aren’t for conventional folk. And I’m

definitely sure you’re answers won’t

earn you any brownie points with the

local lawmen.

Tasmyn makes a gun with her hand and puts it to Julian’s

head. Pretends to fire.

TASMYN

Am I shottin' straight, busta?

Julian shows a cheeky smile.

TASMYN

So tell me. And don’t sugar coat it.

Why are you here?

Julian moves his tongue around in his mouth, thinking before

he speaks. He looks at Tasmyn, admires her.

JULIAN

The watch.

TASMYN

At the exhibit tomorrow?

Julian nods. Has a sip.

TASMYN

Why? What’s so special about it?

JULIAN

There’s nothing special about it.

TASMYN

You came all this way to look at a

not so special watch?

JULIAN

No.

TASMYN

Then why are you here?

(CONTINUED)

39.

CONTINUED:

JULIAN

I came here to take it.

TASMYN

I thought it wasn’t special to you.

JULIAN

It’s not.

Tasmyn gets close. Her speech slows down. Her hand creeps up

his thigh.

TASMYN

How?

JULIAN

I’m going to walk in there and kill

anyone that gets in my way.

Tasmyn gives Julian a come-hither smirk. Tilts her head,

adoring Julian. Lick her lips.

TASMYN

Why would you do that?

Julian winks at Tasmyn.

TASMYN'S HOME/BATHROOM
NIGHT

Julian fills his hands with water. Splashes it over his

face. Stares into the mirror. A million things running

through his bizarre brain.

He grabs a towel, dries himself off and tucks his shirt in

to hide a SPLASH of blood, then walks out into --

TASMYN'S BEDROOM

Tasmyn lies naked on the bed. Inviting Julian.

Julian takes off his jacket.

Distinctive STAR TATTOO on the back of his neck.

TASMYN’S BEDROOM – LATER

SQUEAKY CEILING FAN.

Julian sits up. Wide awake. He dresses himself. Blue jeans,

stylish jacket.

(CONTINUED)

40.

CONTINUED:

He walks around to a sleeping Tasmyn. Stares at her.

Duffle bag in the corner.

He walks off, dragging his fingertips softly down Tasmyn’s

naked body.

He grabs his bag. Opens the door.

Julian looks back. He stares at Tasmyn for a moment.

ATLANTIC (PARKED)
NIGHT

Julian inhales and exhales through his nose, turns the key.

Engine rumbles to life.

MILLHAVEN MUSEUM/SECURITY DOOR
NIGHT

A few street lamps do a dreadful job.

A security door with a “MUSEUM PERSONNEL ONLY” sign on it.

A little intercom with a number pad next to the door.

Julian studies the door and intercom.

VOICES and FLASHLIGHTS creep from around the corner.

Julian disappears.

24 HOUR CHEMIST
DAWN

INSERT TITLE CARD: SATURDAY

SOOTHING MUSIC plays as Julian strolls down the aisles.

He stops when he hits the first aid kits.

He picks up the most expensive one. Walks to the --

CHEMIST COUNTER

An elderly PHARMACIST, 60s, thick rim glasses - stands

behind the counter.

A digital clock on the wall behind tells the time of 6:03am.

Julian PLONKS the first aid kit on the counter.

(CONTINUED)

41.

CONTINUED:

PHARMACIST

(jokingly )

You going to wrestle a bear or

something?

Pharmacist thinks of himself as a comedian. Julian isn’t

impressed.

Pharmacist can feel Julian’s glare. Acts cool. Scans the

first aid kit.

PHARMACIST

Okay then, that’ll be forty nine

ninety five.

Julian taps his pockets.

JULIAN

I don’t have any money.

PHARMACIST

Well you can’t have the first aid kit

then.

JULIAN

I need it.

PHARMACIST

I don’t care.

JULIAN

I’m taking it.

PHARMACIST

No, you can’t, sir, that’s stealing.

JULIAN

But I need it.

PHARMACIST

You look fine.

JULIAN

I look fine now.

PHARMACIST

Look buddy, if you don’t have any

money, you can’t have it. End of

story.

JULIAN

Does this first aid kit have two sets

of scissors?

(CONTINUED)

42.

CONTINUED:

Pharmacist stands confused.

PHARMACIST

Why does it matter?

JULIAN

I only need one.

PHARMACIST

That doesn’t matter. You can’t have

any of it.

Julian peels opens the first aid kit. Pulls out one set of

scissors and chucks them on the counter.

PHARMACIST

Sir, are you okay in the head?

Julian looks at Pharmacist.

JULIAN

What defines someone to be ‘okay’ in

the head?

PHARMACIST

Well, I don’t -

JULIAN

- You don’t know?

Pharmacist, speechless.

JULIAN

Why would you ask someone a question

like that if you yourself do not have

a full understanding of what the

answer is or should be?

PHARMACIST

Look, all I know is that you cannot

just have the first aid kit. Now if

you’re not going to pay for anything,

I’m going to have to ask you to

leave.

Julian looks at Pharmacist as if he were an idiot. Grabs the

handle of the first aid kit, but doesn’t lift it. Yet.

PHARMACIST

Sir.

Julian looks at the Pharmacist like a rebellious child and

lifts the first aid kit from the counter. Slowly.

(CONTINUED)

43.

CONTINUED:

PHARMACIST

No.

Julian turns, walks for the exit. First aid kit in hand.

PHARMACIST

Sir!

Julian ignores Pharmacist. Pharmacist picks up the phone.

Julian stops. Turns to Pharmacist.

JULIAN

Are you willing to die for forty nine

dollars?

Pharmacist swallows hard and hangs up the phone. Petrified.

JULIAN

Cut the cord.

PHARMACIST

Wh, What?

JULIAN

Take the scissors I just gave you and

cut the cord to the telephone.

Scissors on the bench.

PHARMACIST

But -

JULIAN

(ordering )

- I didn’t stutter. Cut the cord.

Julian watches over as Pharmacist hesitantly cuts the cord.

CHEMIST
CONTINUOUS

An empty parking lot. Few shops next door yet to be opened.

Julian walks for his Bugatti Atlantic when a little white

car with “MILLHAVEN MUSEUM SECURITY” stickers planted across

the doors parks up in front of the chemist.

Julian stops. He watches as a SKINNY, red headed, Security

Guard gets out of the passenger door.

Skinny FLICKS his keys and WHISTLES as he walks inside the

chemist.

(CONTINUED)

44.

CONTINUED:

Inside the car sits the CHUBBY Security Guard (pg 7), behind

the wheel. Shoveling a doughnut into his mouth.

SECURITY CAR (MOVING)
MOMENTS LATER

Chubby sips at his steamy large coffee with powdered sugar

smeared on his chin while steering the wheel. Skinny sits. A

train of thought hitting him like a mullet.

SKINNY

That pharmacist was acting strange.

Car lights FLASH from behind.

CHUBBY

Ugh, what does this stupid guy want?

Chubby puts his arm out the window. Signals to pass.

No cars pass.

FLASHES again.

SKINNY

Maybe something’s wrong. Pull over.

BACK ALLEY
CONTINUOUS

Covered by 2 apartment blocks. Brick walls swallow the

security car as they pull up. Julian’s Atlantic pulls up

half a foot behind.

Chubby hops out. Puts his arms out to his sides.

CHUBBY

What’s the problem?

Julian steps out of his Atlantic. Draws his silenced shotgun

on Chubby.

Chubby’s eyes open wide.

Julian FIRES. An ice bucket challenge of shotgun pellets.

Chubby takes flight. HAMMERS into the brick wall.

Skinny jumps out. Grabs his pistol, but is met by the sight

of a pump action shotgun barrel staring him in the face.

Skinny drops his pistol. Throws his hands in the air.

Trembling like a kitten.

(CONTINUED)

45.

CONTINUED:

Julian doesn’t take an eye off his mark as he creeps closer.

Shotgun looking down Skinny’s throat.

Julian STRIKES Skinny using the butt of his gun. KO.

FADE IN:

SKINNY’S P.O.V.

Regaining consciousness. Heavy Breathing. Blindfolded

Head moves, left, right, left. Tries to talk. Gagged.

FOOT STEPS approach.

Skinny panics. Shakes desperately.

Blindfold removed, revealing we are --

FACTORY
DAY

Hasn’t seen humans in decades. Cobwebs hang rafter to

rafter. Not somewhere you want to be with a sociopath that

sees carnage as good sport.

Skinny faces the wall. Bound by ropes attached to each of

his arms and legs.

Julian stands behind, next to a steel table piled with rusty

cutting tools.

Julian removes the gag.

Skinny, in between confused as fuck and scared shitless --

SKINNY

What the fuck? Where are we?

JULIAN

It doesn’t matter.

SKINNY

What do you want?

JULIAN

Your clothes.

(CONTINUED)

SKINNY

You could've just fucking asked me!

JULIAN

Can I have your clothes?

SKINNY

Yes!

JULIAN

Give them to me.

SKINNY

What?

JULIAN

Take your clothes off.

SKINNY

How the fuck?

JULIAN

Find a way.

Skinny tries to shake his cloths off. Useless.

SKINNY

I can’t do it!

JULIAN

Try harder.

Skinny shakes harder. Still no progress.

SKINNY

I can’t!

Julian grabs a hammer and hits it against the steel table.

JULIAN

Hurry up!

Skinny shakes like crazy. Clothes still very attached.

It's no use, he gives up and tears fall.

SKINNY

Please!

Julian approaches Skinny. Now calm and collective.

JULIAN

What’s the name of the last person

Skinny looks back at Julian.

SKINNY

JULIAN

What’s the name of the last person

that started working security at the

museum?

SKINNY

What, why?

Julian, teeth clenched. Losing patience.

JULIAN

Answer the question.

SKINNY

It was me.

Julian, calm.

JULIAN

What’s your name?

SKINNY

Peter.

JULIAN

How long ago did you start working at

the museum, Peter?

PETER

Two days ago.

JULIAN

How many people do you know that work

at the museum, Peter?

PETER

The only guy I met was Jacob.

JULIAN

Who’s Jacob, Peter.

PETER

The guy you just shot.

JULIAN

Any others?

PETER

No!

JULIAN

What’s the security code for the door

PETER

I don’t know.

Julian barks back up.

JULIAN

Peter! What's the security code for

the door to the back entrance of the

museum?

PETER

I don’t know!

STEEL SCRAPING CONCRETE. Julian pushes a table up next to

Peter. Unties his right hand.

JULIAN

Put your hand on the table.

Peter, hesitantly, places his hand on the table. Looks back

at Julian.

JULIAN

Don’t look at me.

Peter looks forward and then straight back at Julian.

Julian picks up his gun, points it at Peter’s butt.

Peter looks forward. Shuts his eyes. Petrified. Crying.

JULIAN

What’s the security code for the door

to the back entrance of the museum?

PETER

I don’t know!

An AXE POUNDS the table one centimeter from PETER’S hand.

PETER

One, six, three, eight, five!

(CONTINUED)

49.

CONTINUED:

JULIAN

Thank-you.

Julian cuts Peter free with a rusty knife. It takes some

effort.

Peter drops to the ground, looks at his hand. It’s fine.

JULIAN

Take your clothes off.

Peter makes his way to his way to his feet, undressing

himself. Slowly.

JULIAN

Hurry up.

ATLANTIC
CONTINUOUS

Julian hops in. He puts his new, nicely folded, security

uniform on the passenger seat.

JULIAN

One, six, three, eight, five.

He takes a black marker that lives in a cup holder and

writes down “1,6,3,8,5” on a note pad.

LILLY’S DINER – DAY

The bell RINGS as Julian walks inside.

A middle aged plump MISERABLE WAITRESS that clearly hates

MUSEUM SECURITY OFFICE

Julian approaches a desk that hosts a FAT WOMAN with a ‘I

don’t really care about my job’ attitude about her, sitting

behind a computer.

Behind the desk stands a BUFF SECURITY GUARD (pg 7) - taking

stance next to a door. The door has a sign: ‘MUSEUM SECURITY

ROOM’

A clock on the wall tells the time of 11:30 am.

FAT WOMAN

New guy -

Fat Woman thinks of a name.

JULIAN

Peter.

A light bulb goes off in Fat Woman's head.

FAT WOMAN

Peter! I thought you were coming in

with Jacob?

JULIAN

He called in sick.

FAT WOMAN

Typical.

Fat Woman susses Julian’s duffle bag.

FAT WOMAN

What’s in the bag?

JULIAN

Gym clothes.

Fat Woman slides a clipboard with some paperwork on it over

to Julian.

FAT WOMAN

Sign this.

Julian signs the paperwork. Fat Woman BUZZES the door behind

She looks at Julian.

SILENCED SHOT GUN BLASTS. Followed by a loud THUMP against

the door.

Old Timer stands. Pulls his gun. Takes aim on the door.

The door opens. Buff Security Guard’s body SLUMPS down. A

MEXICAN GANGSTER, 30s, face tattoos, gold teeth clenched as

ALISTER & CARRICK’S HOME
DAWN

A small, dilapidated room. Penises spray painted on the

walls. A torn up couch, a little box TV plays cartoons and

two single beds at each end furnish the shit hole. Written

all over a nudie poster on the wall: “THE WEIRD”

ALISTER, early 30s, shaved black hair, wears a beat up

collared shirt with a set of aviators. No pants on, just

undies. He flicks a lighter, trying to light a crack pipe.

He sits next to his brother:

CARRICK, early 30s, malnourished, but could be good looking

with a bit of effort. Wears a novelty shirt and like his

brother, isn’t a fan of pants.

Both men speak with strong COCKNEY accents at 100 mph.

Alister eventually lights the pipe, takes a hit, then blows

a cloud of smoke above his head. Relaxed.

Alister the pipe to Carrick. Carrick indulges.

(CONTINUED)

54.

ALISTER

The little prick’s been bettin’ up a

storm at some rich wankers house in

Millhaven. If we don’t deliver within

forty eight hours, he’s fuckin’ dead.

CARRICK

(blows out smoke )

The fucks he doin' Millhaven?

ALISTER

Fucks me, mate, but we better think

of something A S A fuckin’ P.

CARRICK

How the fuck are we gonna steal this

thing? It’s in a heavily guarded

museum, three hundred fuckin’ miles

away. We ain't got a chance.

ALISTER

(blowing out smoke )

Well, for a start, you're gonna have

to stop being a pessimist cunt and

turn that negativity into confidence

towards our situation, or else we're

all fucked.

Alister stands.

ALISTER

We’re also gonna need a bigger gun.

A compact pistol sits on a bong ridden table. Alister picks

it up and shakes his head at it.

ALISTER

We need a magnum or some other hand

cannon with a mean kick back. Pop one

of them off and every git will

scatter like nuns in a whore house.

Alister laughs at his own joke.

CARRICK

It’s just to spook people isn’t it?

You ain’t gonna shoot anyone?

ALISTER

I don’t want to, but, if we're

confronted with a situation where I

have to choose between us or them,

it’s gonna be them.

(MORE)

(CONTINUED)

55.

CONTINUED:

ALISTER (cont'd)

And if I rock into a museum with two

dozen armed guards with this thing, I

may as well shoot myself.

Carrick nods agreeably.

CARRICK

Are you sure, Alister? This ain’t no

run-of-the-mill robbery we’re talking

about ‘ere.

ALISTER

It ain’t about me, bruv. I ain’t

letting some fuckin’ spics kill our

little bruvva for a mess we lead him

into.

CARRICK

We ain’t lead him into shit, he got

himself in this mess and here we are

fixing the fuckin’ situation.

ALISTER

It's our fault he's in this

predicament. He's a good kid with

alota potential. His only downfall is

that he idolized us and we lead him

into the fuckin’ gutter via drugs and

gamblin'. Our oldies would turn in

their grave if we turned our back on

him, now.

Carrick agrees. Stands.

CARRICK

You’re right, bruv. We need to

protect him. It's our duty as family.

ALISTER & CARRICK’S HOME – CONTINUOUS

Under a bridge. A graffiti ridden shipping container in the

slums of town. A gas guzzling generator makes a hell of a

The Junkies exit the container. Bulk smoke streams out the

door. They head towards a --

Busted up GREEN FORD CAPRI.

ALISTER

You wanna drive?

Carrick catches the keys.

FORD CAPRI (MOVING) – CONTINUOUS

Carrick steers out from under bridge onto a homeless street.

CARRICK

Take the wheel for me, would ya?

Alister takes the wheel. Carrick takes a hit from the pipe.

CARRICK

So, how we go about getting a magnum,

Einstein?

Carrick takes over the wheel.

ALISTER

Well, it's simple really, we gonna

rob some shitty little service

stations for everything they have in

the till, then we’re gonna take our

little skinny white asses to a big

ol’ gun store and buy one.

CARRICK

Hang on a fuckin’ tik. You want to

rob service stations for money to buy

a gun?

ALISTER

Yeah.

CARRICK

Why don’t we just rob a fuckin’ gun

store?

ALISTER

Because, those gun store owners are

fuckin’ maniacs. Last year I tried to

hold up a gun store with that shitty

compact pistol you call a fuckin’

weapon and the Mug, pulled out a

shotgun the size of me fuckin’ leg.

CARRICK

That’s unpleasant, bruv.

SERVICE STATION COUNTER

OLD CLERK, chubby, wrong side of 60s, grease coated overalls

make him look the part - stands behind the counter.

Alister approaches.

ALISTER

Oh, I’m just looking for some eggs.

You see, I'm on this new diet and it

says I gotta eat a whole lotta eggs.

I don’t really like eggs, but fuck

OLD CLERK

No eggs, sorry bud.

ALISTER

Well thank fuck for that, that’s just

Old Clerk sighs. Alister gets in his face.

ALISTER

O A T S. Oats.

Alister backs off.

OLD CLERK

Oh, sorry we don’t have none.

ALISTER

Oh for fuck sake, really? after all

that you're gonna tell me you don't

fuckin’ useless. Can I have some

water? Have you got some fuckin’

water? Drink, Drink, liquid fuckin’

OLD CLERK

Well of course we have water. It’s in

that fridge right behind you.

Alister turns to a fridge full of water.

A YOUNG FAMILY trapped inside their car. Carrick acts like a

gorilla, noises and everything. Jumps around the car.

Smacking it with the side of his fists.

Carrick rips a fire extinguisher from its holster. Unleashes

Kids SCREAM from inside as the family car takes off, leaving

Carrick turns around.

Alister puts his hands out. What the fuck are you doing?

OLD CLERK

Now, son, I don’t want any trouble.

ALISTER

You don't want trouble? Your eyes on

my brother, walking with ferocity,

wielding a baseball bat, sure as hell

looked like trouble was about to

fucking emerge.

Old Clerk retraces his steps, back around the counter.

Alister tracks him with the pistol.

OLD CLERK

Don’t be silly now, don’t do

something you might regret.

ALISTER

Are you my fucking dad? Empty the

till into a bag, ya fat idiot.

Old Clerk loads a bag. Alister waves the gun around.

ALISTER

If you moved any fuckin’ slower you’d

fall over. Tik fuckin’ tok.

Old Clerk empties the till into a bag. Passes it to Alister.

Alister STEPS at Old Clerk. Old Clerk flinches, stumbles

back. Frightened. Double chin wobbles.

Alister laughs --

CARRICK

‘Av you ever heard of the Theo Henry

CARRICK

It’s a method a lotta professional

fighters use. In the week leading up

to their bout, they don’t train hard

or nothing. They don’t hit the bag or

do whatever the fuck they do. They

calm themselves. So when they get

into that ring, they ain’t all tense.

They’re level headed. They’re ready.

(points to museum )

That’s your ring, bruv. There’s a lot

at stake here, a lot on your

shoulders. You don’t want to be

making any rash decisions because

you’re head ain’t in the game. Let

your brain rest tonight. So it’s

Nephew gets in after Grayson. Sits opposite. Shakes his

head.

NEPHEW

Why a strip club, Grayson?

Grayson, close to imploding.

NEPHEW

You know, I ain’t ever been a fan of

titty bars. They give me blue balls.

You ever get that, honkey?

Grayson’s got no idea.

NEPHEW

Nah, you ain’t ever had blue balls.

Being a good looking dude with all

the money in the world, daddy being

as powerful as he is. Yeah, I bet you

seen a lot of ass in your time. You

ever fucked a stripper, Grayson?

Grayson, calming down.

NEPHEW

How much ya pay? Five hundred? One

thousand? One hundred? Those hundred

dollar strippers are nasty. I like my

strippers at the thousand mark. They

the good ones, but I ain’t ever paid

for sex before. I like to earn my

pussy.

Grayson, more confused than scared.

NEPHEW

So, contrary to what everyone

believes, us gangsters don’t like

paying for sex all that much. Which

brings me back as to why I don’t

indulge in strip clubs. Them sexy

girls, they be grinding up on you,

rubbing their pussies on your dick,

flaunting them big ass titties in

your face.

NEPHEW (cont'd)

You can grab a hold of them titties,

sometimes they even let ya suck on

‘em, but ya can’t fuck ‘em. It’s like

going to a fancy restaurant and

ordering a big juicy steak. And then

just looking at it. It’s cooked to

perfection, just waiting to have it’s

ass eaten, but you can’t. You can

touch it, you can smell it, but you

just can’t fucking eat it.

Other Gangster laughs, Nephew joins in.

NEPHEW

Ain’t nothing to laugh about.

Grayson agrees.

NEPHEW

Alright, I’m going to stop fucking

A picture of Julian.

Grayson recognizes him.

NEPHEW

You know him?

GRAYSON

Yeah. A freak.

NEPHEW

A freak is damn right, nigger. If

John Wayne Gacy and Ted Bundy had a

love child, it would be this fool. I

once seen him super glue thumbtacks

to a mans hand and made his jack off

with it.

Grayson, disgusted.

GRAYSON

What do you want me to do?

NEPHEW

What the fuck you think? We need this

crazy ass cracker taken the fuck out.

Grayson, nervous. Stutters.

GRAYSON

How am I meant to find him?

NEPHEW

Mother fucker intercepted some

important shit regarding the watch

tomorrow to make a mess. I’d go

myself, but hell, mother fucker

scares the shit out of me.

GRAYSON

Surely you have someone more capable?

NEPHEW

You’re expendable, cocoa puff. I’ll

lay it out for your dumb ass. You got

two options. Option one: You kill

him. Option two: We kill you. If you

possess any self preservation, you’ll

do it and do it without asking why,

who or what the fuck.

Nephew pulls out a Colt. Takes aim on Grayson.

Congratulations Mr. Wilston. You have

delivered an entertaining fight once

again and you will be rewarded

accordingly.

The crowd turns to a --

PODIUM

Mr. Mexico holds a microphone.

Tyson notices Mr. Mexico on the podium. Confused, he looks

down at where he was just seconds ago.

MR. MEXICO

(over microphone )

I hope everyone is enjoying their

evening. Don’t be shy, we have a

fountain full of punch and a bathtub

full of blow for anyone that’s losing

Yeah, all of it on the big white

fella.

FADE IN:

INT. BOXING RING - NIGHT

Tyson stands in one corner. Calm, focused. He peels his

shirt off revealing a heavily tattooed and scarred body.

Behind the works of art and war is a physique that warrants

respect.

Izaak, in the other corner, jumps around, air punching.

The Referee calls both men into the middle of the ring.

Izaak snake eyes Tyson. Tyson looks to the ground.

REFEREE

You know the rules. No low blows, no

biting. Touch gloves if you want.

Both men touch gloves. Izaak backs up to his corner, doesn’t

take an eye off Tyson.

Tyson, tracks the ground as he walks to his corner.

DING DING. Tyson looks up. Game on.

Izaak bangs his fists together, cracks his neck, walks for

Tyson.

Tyson, calmly, meets him.

(CONTINUED)

16.

CONTINUED:

Izaak puts his hands up. Tyson puts his hands only

moderately up. Sloppy defense.

Izaak jabs twice. Connects with Tyson both times.

Tyson, un-phased by the solid hits, does not take an eye off

Izaak.

Izaak hits one more jab, then follows with a right hook.

Tyson weaves away from the hook. Counters with a jab of his

own. Connects.

RATTLED, Izaak shakes it off.

Izaak swings a monster left hook. Tyson ducks. Plants one on

Izaak’s ribs, followed by a jaw busting upper cut.

Lights out. Izaak hits the ropes, then CRASHES to the

ground.

The crowd. Silent.

Junkie’s heart skips a beat.

Tyson smiles. Throws his hands in the air. The crowd CHEERS

for their champion.

Junkie makes a run for it through the crowed.

MR. MEXICO (O.S.)

(over microphone )

And your winner is, Tyson Margate!

Tyson helps a DROWSY Izaak to his feet, then exits.

Izaak hits the deck as soon as Tyson jumps out.

INT. MANSION LOBBY - MOMENTS LATER

Mr. Mexico hands Tyson a wad of cash.

MR. MEXICO

You’re going to make me a very happy

man if you continue to come back, Mr.

TYSON

I can’t. This is it.

Mr. Mexico smiles.

(CONTINUED)

17.

CONTINUED:

MR. MEXICO

Farewell, old friend.

TYSON

Goodbye, Mr. Mexico.

Both men smile as Tyson exits.

A heavily tattooed arm taps Mr. Mexico on the shoulder. Mr.

Mexico turns. Greeted by:

MEXICAN, 30s, tattoos head to toe - gets down to Mr.

Mexico’s level. Speaks calmly.

MEXICAN

The project timepiece information

never arrived.

Mr. Mexico keeps a fake smile. Frustrated.

MR. MEXICO

Mexican nods.

MR. MEXICO

Take him to the basement. Time to

find out if his brothers are as great

as he talks them up to be.

GRAYSON

(through window )

Hey numb nuts! Have you seen a limo

pull up?

TYSON

No, sir.

Grayson walks off.

Tyson spots Boss in the corner of his eye, staring at him as

if he were a complete idiot.

TYSON

(under his breath )

Fuck this.

Tyson approaches Boss.

BOSS

What the fuck do you think you’re

doing, boy?

Boss takes a step back. Sweat beads fall from his forehead.

Tyson holds himself back. Bites his tongue.

Takes a step back.

INT. MILLHAVEN MUSEUM - DAY

Could hear a pin drop from a mile away. Tyson strolls

Main foyer. I got it.

Chubby makes his way closer. Shaking, gun staring at Tyson.

CHUBBY

How’d the shit you get in?

Tyson looks around.

TYSON

The door was open, man.

Chubby realizes something, lowers his gun. Laughs as he

shakes his head.

CHUBBY

God dammit.

Tyson lowers his arms. Relieved. Smiles innocently.

A BUFF SECURITY GUARD, 30s, THICK GOLD CHAIN around neck -

runs in. Gun gripped. Ready for action.

Chubby waves him off.

CHUBBY

I’m sorry, It’s my bad. I left the

door open.

Buff shakes his head in frustration. Exits.

Chubby shows Tyson to the exit.

CHUBBY

Look, I’m sorry, the museum isn’t

open today.

TYSON

Hey, well, I was actually here about

a job. I'm a security guard.

Tyson points out his shirt logo.

CHUBBY

INT. TYSON’S CAR (MOVING) - AFTERNOON

Tyson drives down the freeway sucking down a large soda from

Slippery Jacks when --

500 METERS DOWN THE ROAD

A police car SCRAPES the barrier. Runs down the embankment,

then FLIPS and SMASHES into a tree.

TYSON

Holy fu -

INT. TYSON’S HOME/MAIN BEDROOM – NIGHT

Kiki, sits on the bed, wiping away tears. Box of tissues

spread over the bed.

The door CREEKS open. Tyson enters.

TYSON

Baby.

Tyson rushes to Kiki. Kneels in front, takes her hand.

KIKI

I got a call from your ex-boss’

lawyer, you know. They’re taking us

for everything we have.

No answer. Tyson bites his lip. Oh shit.

(CONTINUED)

22.

CONTINUED:

KIKI

You knocked him out? What the fuck

were you thinking, Tyson?

TYSON

Baby -

No answer. Kiki, stern.

KIKI

Where were you last night? They said

you were never rostered to work.

No answer.

KIKI

You went back to that decrepit old

man didn't you?

TYSON

Baby, please I had to -

KIKI

- This isn’t the answer Tyson. You’re

better than that.

TYSON

Baby, please. I’m desperate.

KIKI

Were you lying about the job trail

tomorrow as well?

Tyson looks down. Kiki cries.

KIKI

I don’t even want to know.

TYSON

Baby, I need you to have faith in me.

KIKI

I do trust you, Tyson, but it’s hard.

You promised you would never go back

there and you did. You lied to me.

TYSON

I fucked up, baby, I should have just

told you. I’m so sorry.

Kiki hesitantly lets Tyson comfort her.

(CONTINUED)

23.

CONTINUED:

TYSON

You know I couldn’t work for that

ogre any longer. If you knew what he

said, you would have done the same.

KIKI

(sobbing )

He was an asshole, but that doesn’t

stop the fact he's now suing us. What

are we gonna do Tyson?

Tyson kisses Kiki on her head.

TYSON

I need to tell you something.

Kiki looks Tyson in his eyes.

DIGITAL CLOCK: Time flicks through from 1743 to 1828.

BACK TO SCENE

Tyson looks deep into Kiki’s eyes. A look of self hate.

I don’t know what else to do.

Kiki takes a deep breath.

Tyson hugs Kiki. Kiki dries her tears. Embraces Tyson.

INT. TYSON’S HOME/KITCHEN – MORNING

INSERT TITLE CARD: SATURDAY

The kettle hits boiling point. DING.

Tyson shakes his head.

KIKI

Well, I’m not letting you go on an

empty stomach.

TYSON

It’s okay baby, I’m gonna get a club

sandwich from Lilly’s Diner.

KIKI

You’re gonna turn into one of those

sandwiches.

Tyson laughs. Takes a seat next to Junior. Stares at him.

JUNIOR

What are you staring at?

Tyson turns to Kiki.

TYSON

I don’t know how I did it, but I did,

somehow contribute to creating the

best looking kid on this earth. Thank

god he got the majority of his looks

from you, baby.

Kiki smirks.

KIKI

Well, judging by his soccer skills,

he got his athleticism from you.

Tyson laughs.

TYSON

Best of both worlds huh, son?

Junior looks up with a smile on his face. Milk drips down

his chops.

How are you so calm about all this?

TYSON

Baby, this is what I do.

KIKI

Just come home. I love you.

TYSON

I will, baby, I promise. I love you.

INT. LILLY’S DINER – DAY

A decent crowd at the local diner. Middle aged waitresses

slug out the daily grind. Patrons enjoy their late breakfast

and coffee.

A clock tells the time of 11.18am.

Tyson throws down the last of his club sandwich when Julian

Uyster exits the diner.

MANAGER

Hay, that guy didn’t pay.

Manager follows Julian out the door.

Tyson thoroughly enjoys the last bites of his club sandwich

when, from behind --

THROUGH WINDOW

Julian (pg 6) casually walks for a BLACK BUGATTI ATLANTIC.

Manager follows, attempts to get his attention.

From the passenger seat of his car, Julian pulls out a

silenced pump action shotgun. Turns it on the Manager.

A Woman SCREAMS. Tyson, along with everyone else, turns his

attention to the events outside.

TYSON

Everyone get down!

Without hesitation, Julian pulls the trigger. Manager FLIES

backwards --

SMASHING through the window.

THROUGH WINDOW

Julian gets in his car, casually takes off.

INSIDE

Tyson throws his table aside. Jumps to Managers aid. Dead.

He catches the clock. 11.20am.

TYSON

(to himself )

Shit.

The terrified crowd watches over as Tyson covers the dead

body with a table cloth.

Tyson spots a male EMPLOYEE, 20 - openly scared shitless.

Tyson waves him over.

TYSON

You have to get everyone outside,

away from the body. Call the cops,

tell them exactly what happened. I’m

sorry, buddy, but I gotta go.

Employee nods his head. Fights back tears and puts on a game

face.

Tyson exits.

JULIAN’S BLACK BUGATTI ATLANTIC

INSERT TITLE CARD: FRIDAY

EXT. COUNTRY ROAD – DAY

Green bush lands lay background to an endless road. Painted

on the road: “THE BAD”

Julian UYSTER - walks away from a smoked out BLACK E60 BMW

on the side of the road. Long black duffle bag hangs from

his shoulder. Cowboy boots CLAP against the asphalt road.

A PINK ENVELOPE sits in the back pocket of his jeans.

A HARLEY DAVIDSON rumbles past in the opposite direction.

Julian takes no notice.

Only the sound of a three inch straight through exhaust

SCREAMING in the distance catches his attention.

Julian needs a look. A BLACK BUGATTI ATLANTIC roars towards

him from behind.

Julian looks forward as the beautiful car approaches. Fast.

Without a look of fear. Julian walks onto the road. Right in

front of the speeding Atlantic.

The DRIVER SWERVES. Misses Julian by a thread.

(CONTINUED)

28.

CONTINUED:

The Atlantic narrowly dodges a power line as it storms off

the road into bush scrub.

Julian strolls up to the Atlantic as a cliche REDNECK hops

out.

REDNECK

What in the hell -

Out of nowhere, Julian whips out a pump action, SILENCED

shotgun from his duffle bag and BLOWS Redneck into next

week.

INT. ATLANTIC (PARKED) – DAY

stereo.

Well un-impressed, Julian ejects the CD and frisbees it out

the window.

Julian drives past a 'WELCOME TO MILLHAVEN' sign.

A CLASSIC ROCK HIT plays on the radio.

Fuel light flashes.

INT. SERVICE STATION 1 – DAY

Julian walks through the door. Greeted by a middle aged

Female ASIAN CLERK.

ASIAN CLERK

Good afternoon, sir.

Julian nods at Asian Clerk. Heads straight towards the back

of the shop to where the snacks are and makes himself a hot

dog.

Asian Clerk SCREAMS. Julian almost drops the mustard he's

about to squeeze onto his hot dog.

ROBBER 1 (O.S.)

Listen ‘ere ya slanty eyed fuck -

Julian turns to see --

(CONTINUED)

29.

CONTINUED:

Two men robbing the joint. Both wearing balaclavas. Both

talk with strong COCKNEY accents. ROBBER 1 wields a gun.

ROBBER 2 brandishes a knife.

ROBBER 1 has a gun in the face of Asian Clerk.

ROBBER 1

You’re gonna empty the register into

a bag and you’re gonna do it fuckin’

quick or I'll put one of these

bullets through your big Asian brain.

You got that, mate?

Asian Clerk does exactly as she’s told.

Pressing the knife up to Asian Clerks shoulder, Robber 2

gets in her ear.

ROBBER 2

(into clerks ear )

Grab some ciggies while you're at it,

would yah, sweetheart.

ASIAN CLERK

(terrified)

Y, y, y, yes sir.

Robber 1 grabs packets of chips and gum while Robber 2

taunts the clerk with his knife.

Asian Clerk fills a paper bag with all the money from the

till. She throws a few packets of cigarettes in there too.

Robber 2 grabs the bag. Runs out of the store.

Robber 1 launches a packet of chips at Asian Clerk. The bag

explodes. Chips fly everywhere. He runs out after Robber 1.

ROBBER 2 (O.S.)

Baaaaaaaaahhhhh ching chong ching!

ROBBER 1 (O.S.)

Ce ce gracious, ching ching chong

ching!

BACK TO JULIAN

Julian watches over with a vacant look. He drops his hot dog

in displeasure. Taste like shit.

Casually, he walks up to the SOBBING Asian Clerk and puts

twenty dollars on the counter.

(CONTINUED)

30.

CONTINUED:

Julian maintains eye contact with Asian Clerk as he exits.

INT. ATLANTIC (MOVING)– DUSK

Sun falls from the sky.

Julian cruises down a street when he spots a sign promoting

Julian’s dash clock tells the time: 4:01 pm. Perfect.

EXT. SALLY’S SPORTS BAR/PARKING LOT – AFTERNOON

Run down establishment. For blue collar workers to enjoy

Friday afternoon beers. A “SALLY’S SPORTS BAR” sign above

the door promotes “BAR & GRILL”.

Julian pulls up next to a STRETCHED LIMOUSINE.

FRONT DOOR

Two SECURITY personnel escort a stumbling DRUNK from the

bar. Drunk wears a RED SHIRT and CAMO PANTS.

The drunk slurs his words in an Australian accent.

DRUNK

This ‘s fucked, mate, that fuck head

started it. Why ya cocks kicking me

out?

SALLY'S SECURITY GUARD 1

Whatever, smelly, get out of here.

Drunk has had it. He turns to Security Guard 1. WHAM. He

KICKS him in his balls as hard as he can.

Security Guard 1 drops to his knees. Hands cupping his

balls. Teeth clenched. Agony.

Security Guard 2 body SLAMS Drunk to the ground. Puts his

knee in his back.

BACK TO JULIAN

Julian does not blink an eye at the ruckus. He walks

straight past the commotion, into --

31.

INT. SALLY’S SPORTS BAR

An all American bar. Nothing flash. A handful of people

drink their sorrows away. One WAITRESS work the bar.

A beautiful vintage CLOCK sits above the door frame.

Julian enters. Susses the place. He spots Grayson (pg 20)

chatting with a beautiful BLONDE. They make eye contact.

Julian quickly takes his attention off Grayson and makes his

way to the --

BAR

A tight figured, diminutive WAITRESS, 35, with sandy locks

and a strong Southern American accent - looks Julian up and

down. Like what she sees.

WAITRESS

What can I get yah, darlin’?

JULIAN

Whatever you recommend. Darlin’.

Waitress smirks. Pours a beer, places it in front of Julian.

WAITRESS

That'll be four dollars.

Julian puts a twenty on the bar. Waitress does her thing.

Julian has a swig. Waitress returns with the change. Julian

pushes it back.

WAITRESS

Thank you kind sir. I’ll take extra

care of you tonight.

Waitress grabs a cloth and wipes the bar in front of Julian.

Julian takes another sip of his pint.

JULIAN

The kid over at the tables with the

young lady. What’s his name?

WAITRESS

(looks at Grayson )

I have no idea. I’ve never seen him

before today.

Grayson exits.

He takes a seat in front of his sweaty beer. Takes a big

sip.

Waitress returns.

WAITRESS

You know that guy?

Julian shakes his head.

WAITRESS

What’s your name, sweetheart?

JULIAN

Julian.

Waitress smiles.

WAITRESS

Tasmyn.

Julian cracks half a smile.

TASMYN

What brings you to Millhaven, Julian?

JULIAN

You're assuming I'm from out of town?

TASMYN

Am I wrong to assume that?

Julian looks to his right, to a MAN passed out on the bar,

drooling like a baby.

(CONTINUED)

33.

CONTINUED:

JULIAN

This place is a shit hole.

Tasmyn, flirtatiously taken aback. Cocks a brow.

TASMYN

Excuse me, Mr. Julian, but I like it.

JULIAN

Is that right.

Tasmyn rests her arms against the bar.

TASMYN

No, not really.

JULIAN

Why do you work here?

Tasmyn checks out the building. Shrugs her shoulders.

TASMYN

It's got air conditioning.

JULIAN

A positive attitude.

TASMYN

I like to look at the cup as half

full.

Tasmyn smiles.

JULIAN

You’re happy?

TASMYN

Yes, I am right now and that’s what

matters.

Julian nods. Agrees.

Tasmyn picks up a tray of pint glasses from the dishwasher

below her. Takes to them with a towel.

TASMYN

You work, Julian?

Julian shakes his head. Nope. Has another sip.

TASMYN

Not at all?

(CONTINUED)

34.

CONTINUED:

Julian puts his beer down. Shakes his head. Nope.

TASMYN

Why not?

Julian taps his fingers on the bar. Avoids the question.

TASMYN

How’d you pay for that drink?

JULIAN

That depends.

TASMYN

On what?

JULIAN

Do you want the truth?

Tasmyn looks Julian up and down.

TASMYN

Why do you think it’s okay for you

bludge, but everyone else has to do

hard yards.

JULIAN

No one has a gun to your head.

TASMYN

Yeah, not a gun with bullets, but

with debt and unhappiness and hunger

and dehydration.

JULIAN

As one that does none of what you do,

I'm very quenched.

TYSON

That's nice, you forget to mention as

to how and why?

JULIAN

Persistence is key, right?

Tasmyn gives Julian a questioning look.

Julian gives in.

JULIAN

I don't like people telling me what

to do.

(CONTINUED)

35.

CONTINUED:

Tasmyn, interested, waits for Julian to speak again.

TASMYN

Care to elaborate?

JULIAN

Being governed by someone who thinks

they're above others for something as

trivial as money is pathetic. And

this pecking order society has

created is unnatural and dangerous.

Tasmyn cocks her eyebrow.

TASMYN

Would you prefer to live like

animals, Julian?

JULIAN

We are animals.

TASMYN

Animals live in hierarchies.

JULIAN

Natural hierarchy is earned by

physical strength and aggression.

Ours is achieved by who has the

thickest wallets.

TASMYN

So, what would you suggest? We

eliminate money entirely? Because

that would just -

Julian interrupts.

JULIAN

- That, would steer us in the right

direction to legitimate freedom.

TASMYN

You know that's never gonna happen.

Looks like you'll just have to adapt

to our indecisive way of life.

Julian laughs to himself. Has a sip.

Tasmyn bites on her top lip. A flirtatious smirk.

36.

EXT. SALLY’S SPORTS BAR/PARKING LOT – NIGHT

Arms locked, Tasmyn and Julian walk to --

JULIAN’S BUGATTI ATLANTIC

TASMYN

Wow! Julian, this car is amazing!

Julian, like a gentleman, opens the passenger door for

Tasmyn.

JULIAN

Oh, it’s not mine. I’m just...

Borrowing it.

Tasmyn gives Julian a horny, flirtatious smile.

INT. TASMYN'S HOME/LOUNGE ROOM – NIGHT

Well presented. A decent sized flat screen TV suits the

clean room. A few clothes hang from the arm of the couch.

TASMYN

Take a seat sweetheart.

Julian takes a seat. Tasmyn grabs the clothes from the couch

arm, then plugs her phone into an iPod dock. She hits play.

She CRANKS: Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds - The Curse Of

Millhaven. She winks at Julian on her way into the kitchen.

Julian taps his finger against the lounge. Scouts the room.

Cupboard doors BANG from the kitchen.

TASMYN (O.S.)

Uggghh.. Where's that goddamn bottle!

Draws open. A glass SMASHES.

TASMYN (O.S.)

Fuck!

Tasmyn walks back on screen. A bottle of red in one hand,

two glasses in the other. She SINGS along with the music as

she walks seductively towards Julian.

She takes a seat next to Julian.

Red wine pours into a glass.

(CONTINUED)

37.

CONTINUED:

Tasmyn slides Julian a glass. Shuffles closer to him.

Like a champ, Tasmyn necks her glass of red in one hit, not

taking an eye off Julian.

Tasmyn snorts into her glass as she laughs to herself. Gives

Julian a competitive smirk.

Julian doesn't know how to feel.

Silence for a moment. Then -

TASMYN

Can I ask you a question?

JULIAN

That depends.

TASMYN

On what?

JULIAN

Do you want the truth?

Tasmyn takes a moment as she looks at Julian.

TASMYN

I could ask you the same question.

JULIAN

It doesn't matter to me.

Tasmyn, surprised a little.

TASMYN

You’re okay to tell me the truth?

Julian sniffs his wine. Smiles, then has a sip.

TASMYN

Why are you here?

JULIAN

Here?

TASMYN

In Millhaven.

JULIAN

Are you sure you want those answers?

Tasmyn raises a competitive eyebrow.

(CONTINUED)

38.

CONTINUED:

TASMYN

Don’t think I can handle it?

Julian stares into Tasmyn’s eyes.

Tasmyn puts her hand on Julian’s knee.

TASMYN

You’re an eccentric man, Julian. If I

was to stab the dark; your answers

aren’t for conventional folk. And I’m

definitely sure you’re answers won’t

earn you any brownie points with the

local lawmen.

Tasmyn makes a gun with her hand and puts it to Julian’s

head. Pretends to fire.

TASMYN

Am I shottin' straight, busta?

Julian shows a cheeky smile.

TASMYN

So tell me. And don’t sugar coat it.

Why are you here?

Julian moves his tongue around in his mouth, thinking before

he speaks. He looks at Tasmyn, admires her.

JULIAN

The watch.

TASMYN

At the exhibit tomorrow?

Julian nods. Has a sip.

TASMYN

Why? What’s so special about it?

JULIAN

There’s nothing special about it.

TASMYN

You came all this way to look at a

not so special watch?

JULIAN

No.

TASMYN

Then why are you here?

(CONTINUED)

39.

CONTINUED:

JULIAN

I came here to take it.

TASMYN

I thought it wasn’t special to you.

JULIAN

It’s not.

Tasmyn gets close. Her speech slows down. Her hand creeps up

his thigh.

TASMYN

How?

JULIAN

I’m going to walk in there and kill

anyone that gets in my way.

Tasmyn gives Julian a come-hither smirk. Tilts her head,

adoring Julian. Lick her lips.

TASMYN

Why would you do that?

Julian winks at Tasmyn.

INT. TASMYN'S HOME/BATHROOM - NIGHT

Julian fills his hands with water. Splashes it over his

face. Stares into the mirror. A million things running

through his bizarre brain.

He grabs a towel, dries himself off and tucks his shirt in

to hide a SPLASH of blood, then walks out into --

TASMYN'S BEDROOM

Tasmyn lies naked on the bed. Inviting Julian.

Julian takes off his jacket.

Distinctive STAR TATTOO on the back of his neck.

TASMYN’S BEDROOM – LATER

SQUEAKY CEILING FAN.

Julian sits up. Wide awake. He dresses himself. Blue jeans,

stylish jacket.

He walks around to a sleeping Tasmyn. Stares at her.

Duffle bag in the corner.

He walks off, dragging his fingertips softly down Tasmyn’s

naked body.

He grabs his bag. Opens the door.

Julian looks back. He stares at Tasmyn for a moment.

INT. ATLANTIC (PARKED) - NIGHT

Julian inhales and exhales through his nose, turns the key.

Engine rumbles to life.

EXT. MILLHAVEN MUSEUM/SECURITY DOOR - NIGHT

A few street lamps do a dreadful job.

A security door with a “MUSEUM PERSONNEL ONLY” sign on it.

A little intercom with a number pad next to the door.

Julian studies the door and intercom.

VOICES and FLASHLIGHTS creep from around the corner.

Julian disappears.

INT. 24 HOUR CHEMIST - DAWN

INSERT TITLE CARD: SATURDAY

SOOTHING MUSIC plays as Julian strolls down the aisles.

He stops when he hits the first aid kits.

He picks up the most expensive one. Walks to the --

CHEMIST COUNTER

An elderly PHARMACIST, 60s, thick rim glasses - stands

behind the counter.

A digital clock on the wall behind tells the time of 6:03am.

Julian PLONKS the first aid kit on the counter.

(CONTINUED)

41.

CONTINUED:

PHARMACIST

(jokingly )

You going to wrestle a bear or

something?

Pharmacist thinks of himself as a comedian. Julian isn’t

impressed.

Pharmacist can feel Julian’s glare. Acts cool. Scans the

first aid kit.

PHARMACIST

Okay then, that’ll be forty nine

ninety five.

Julian taps his pockets.

JULIAN

I don’t have any money.

PHARMACIST

Well you can’t have the first aid kit

then.

JULIAN

I need it.

PHARMACIST

I don’t care.

JULIAN

I’m taking it.

PHARMACIST

No, you can’t, sir, that’s stealing.

JULIAN

But I need it.

PHARMACIST

You look fine.

JULIAN

I look fine now.

PHARMACIST

Look buddy, if you don’t have any

money, you can’t have it. End of

story.

JULIAN

Does this first aid kit have two sets

of scissors?

(CONTINUED)

42.

CONTINUED:

Pharmacist stands confused.

PHARMACIST

Why does it matter?

JULIAN

I only need one.

PHARMACIST

That doesn’t matter. You can’t have

any of it.

Julian peels opens the first aid kit. Pulls out one set of

scissors and chucks them on the counter.

PHARMACIST

Sir, are you okay in the head?

Julian looks at Pharmacist.

JULIAN

What defines someone to be ‘okay’ in

the head?

PHARMACIST

Well, I don’t -

JULIAN

- You don’t know?

Pharmacist, speechless.

JULIAN

Why would you ask someone a question

like that if you yourself do not have

a full understanding of what the

answer is or should be?

PHARMACIST

Look, all I know is that you cannot

just have the first aid kit. Now if

you’re not going to pay for anything,

I’m going to have to ask you to

leave.

Julian looks at Pharmacist as if he were an idiot. Grabs the

handle of the first aid kit, but doesn’t lift it. Yet.

PHARMACIST

Sir.

Julian looks at the Pharmacist like a rebellious child and

lifts the first aid kit from the counter. Slowly.

(CONTINUED)

43.

CONTINUED:

PHARMACIST

No.

Julian turns, walks for the exit. First aid kit in hand.

PHARMACIST

Sir!

Julian ignores Pharmacist. Pharmacist picks up the phone.

Julian stops. Turns to Pharmacist.

JULIAN

Are you willing to die for forty nine

dollars?

Pharmacist swallows hard and hangs up the phone. Petrified.

JULIAN

Cut the cord.

PHARMACIST

Wh, What?

JULIAN

Take the scissors I just gave you and

cut the cord to the telephone.

Scissors on the bench.

PHARMACIST

But -

JULIAN

(ordering )

- I didn’t stutter. Cut the cord.

Julian watches over as Pharmacist hesitantly cuts the cord.

EXT. CHEMIST - CONTINUOUS

An empty parking lot. Few shops next door yet to be opened.

Julian walks for his Bugatti Atlantic when a little white

car with “MILLHAVEN MUSEUM SECURITY” stickers planted across

the doors parks up in front of the chemist.

Julian stops. He watches as a SKINNY, red headed, Security

Guard gets out of the passenger door.

Skinny FLICKS his keys and WHISTLES as he walks inside the

chemist.

(CONTINUED)

44.

CONTINUED:

Inside the car sits the CHUBBY Security Guard (pg 7), behind

the wheel. Shoveling a doughnut into his mouth.

INT. SECURITY CAR (MOVING) - MOMENTS LATER

Chubby sips at his steamy large coffee with powdered sugar

smeared on his chin while steering the wheel. Skinny sits. A

train of thought hitting him like a mullet.

SKINNY

That pharmacist was acting strange.

Car lights FLASH from behind.

CHUBBY

Ugh, what does this stupid guy want?

Chubby puts his arm out the window. Signals to pass.

No cars pass.

FLASHES again.

SKINNY

Maybe something’s wrong. Pull over.

EXT. BACK ALLEY - CONTINUOUS

Covered by 2 apartment blocks. Brick walls swallow the

security car as they pull up. Julian’s Atlantic pulls up

half a foot behind.

Chubby hops out. Puts his arms out to his sides.

CHUBBY

What’s the problem?

Julian steps out of his Atlantic. Draws his silenced shotgun

on Chubby.

Chubby’s eyes open wide.

Julian FIRES. An ice bucket challenge of shotgun pellets.

Chubby takes flight. HAMMERS into the brick wall.

Skinny jumps out. Grabs his pistol, but is met by the sight

of a pump action shotgun barrel staring him in the face.

Skinny drops his pistol. Throws his hands in the air.

Trembling like a kitten.

(CONTINUED)

Julian doesn’t take an eye off his mark as he creeps closer.

Shotgun looking down Skinny’s throat.

Julian STRIKES Skinny using the butt of his gun. KO.

SKINNY’S P.O.V.

Regaining consciousness. Heavy Breathing. Blindfolded

Head moves, left, right, left. Tries to talk. Gagged.

FOOT STEPS approach.

Skinny panics. Shakes desperately.

Blindfold removed, revealing we are --

INT. FACTORY - DAY

Hasn’t seen humans in decades. Cobwebs hang rafter to

rafter. Not somewhere you want to be with a sociopath that

sees carnage as good sport.

Skinny faces the wall. Bound by ropes attached to each of

his arms and legs.

Julian stands behind, next to a steel table piled with rusty

cutting tools.

Julian removes the gag.

Skinny, in between confused as fuck and scared shitless --

SKINNY

What the fuck? Where are we?

JULIAN

It doesn’t matter.

SKINNY

What do you want?

JULIAN

Your clothes.

SKINNY

You could've just fucking asked me!

JULIAN

Can I have your clothes?

SKINNY

Yes!

JULIAN

Give them to me.

SKINNY

What?

JULIAN

Take your clothes off.

SKINNY

How the fuck?

JULIAN

Find a way.

Skinny tries to shake his cloths off. Useless.

SKINNY

I can’t do it!

JULIAN

Try harder.

Skinny shakes harder. Still no progress.

SKINNY

I can’t!

Julian grabs a hammer and hits it against the steel table.

JULIAN

Hurry up!

Skinny shakes like crazy. Clothes still very attached.

It's no use, he gives up and tears fall.

SKINNY

Please!

Julian approaches Skinny. Now calm and collective.

Skinny looks back at Julian.

SKINNY

SKINNY

What, why?

Julian, teeth clenched. Losing patience.

JULIAN

Answer the question.

SKINNY

It was me.

Julian, calm.

JULIAN

What’s your name?

SKINNY

Peter.

JULIAN

How long ago did you start working at

the museum, Peter?

PETER

Two days ago.

JULIAN

How many people do you know that work

at the museum, Peter?

PETER

The only guy I met was Jacob.

JULIAN

Who’s Jacob, Peter.

PETER

PETER

Julian barks back up.

JULIAN

Peter! What's the security code for

the door to the back entrance of the

museum?

PETER

I don’t know!

STEEL SCRAPING CONCRETE. Julian pushes a table up next to

Peter. Unties his right hand.

JULIAN

Put your hand on the table.

Peter, hesitantly, places his hand on the table. Looks back

at Julian.

JULIAN

Don’t look at me.

Peter looks forward and then straight back at Julian.

Julian picks up his gun, points it at Peter’s butt.

Peter looks forward. Shuts his eyes. Petrified. Crying.

JULIAN

What’s the security code for the door

to the back entrance of the museum?

PETER

I don’t know!

An AXE POUNDS the table one centimeter from PETER’S hand.

PETER

One, six, three, eight, five!

(CONTINUED)

49.

CONTINUED:

JULIAN

Thank-you.

Julian cuts Peter free with a rusty knife. It takes some

effort.

Peter drops to the ground, looks at his hand. It’s fine.

JULIAN

Take your clothes off.

Peter makes his way to his way to his feet, undressing

himself. Slowly.

JULIAN

Hurry up.

INT. ATLANTIC - CONTINUOUS

Julian hops in. He puts his new, nicely folded, security

uniform on the passenger seat.

INT. LILLY’S DINER – DAY

The bell RINGS as Julian walks inside.

Julian approaches a desk that hosts a FAT WOMAN with a ‘I

don’t really care about my job’ attitude about her, sitting

behind a computer.

Behind the desk stands a BUFF SECURITY GUARD (pg 7) - taking

stance next to a door. The door has a sign: ‘MUSEUM SECURITY

ROOM’

A clock on the wall tells the time of 11:30 am.

FAT WOMAN

New guy -

Fat Woman thinks of a name.

JULIAN

Peter.

A light bulb goes off in Fat Woman's head.

FAT WOMAN

Peter! I thought you were coming in

with Jacob?

JULIAN

He called in sick.

FAT WOMAN

Typical.

Fat Woman susses Julian’s duffle bag.

FAT WOMAN

What’s in the bag?

JULIAN

Gym clothes.

Fat Woman slides a clipboard with some paperwork on it over

to Julian.

FAT WOMAN

Sign this.

Julian signs the paperwork. Fat Woman BUZZES the door behind

SILENCED SHOT GUN BLASTS. Followed by a loud THUMP against

the door.

Old Timer stands. Pulls his gun. Takes aim on the door.

The door opens. Buff Security Guard’s body SLUMPS down. A

Old Timer approaches. Slowly. Calm. He's done this before.

The handle of Julian’s shotgun swings in. KO’s Old Timer.

FADE IN:

INT. BASEMENT - DAWN

JUNKIE (pg 15), wears an “I’m not a part of the hipster fad”

tee, blindfolded and gagged. Terrified. Guarded by:

MEXICAN GANGSTER, 30s, face tattoos, gold teeth clenched as

Mexican SMASHES the phone down with anger. Repeatedly.

INT. ALISTER & CARRICK’S HOME - DAWN

A small, dilapidated room. Penises spray painted on the

walls. A torn up couch, a little box TV plays cartoons and

two single beds at each end furnish the shit hole. Written

all over a nudie poster on the wall: “THE WEIRD”

ALISTER, early 30s, shaved black hair, wears a beat up

collared shirt with a set of aviators. No pants on, just

undies. He flicks a lighter, trying to light a crack pipe.

He sits next to his brother:

CARRICK, early 30s, malnourished, but could be good looking

with a bit of effort. Wears a novelty shirt and like his

brother, isn’t a fan of pants.

Both men speak with strong COCKNEY accents at 100 mph.

Alister eventually lights the pipe, takes a hit, then blows

a cloud of smoke above his head. Relaxed.

Alister the pipe to Carrick. Carrick indulges.

(CONTINUED)

54.

ALISTER

The little prick’s been bettin’ up a

Millhaven. If we don’t deliver within

forty eight hours, he’s fuckin’ dead.

CARRICK

(blows out smoke )

The fucks he doin' Millhaven?

ALISTER

Fucks me, mate, but we better think

of something A S A fuckin’ P.

CARRICK

How the fuck are we gonna steal this

thing? It’s in a heavily guarded

museum, three hundred fuckin’ miles

away. We ain't got a chance.

ALISTER

(blowing out smoke )

Well, for a start, you're gonna have

to stop being a pessimist cunt and

turn that negativity into confidence

towards our situation, or else we're

all fucked.

Alister stands.

ALISTER

We’re also gonna need a bigger gun.

A compact pistol sits on a bong ridden table. Alister picks

it up and shakes his head at it.

ALISTER

We need a magnum or some other hand

cannon with a mean kick back. Pop one

of them off and every git will

scatter like nuns in a whore house.

Alister laughs at his own joke.

CARRICK

It’s just to spook people isn’t it?

You ain’t gonna shoot anyone?

ALISTER

I don’t want to, but, if we're

confronted with a situation where I

have to choose between us or them,

it’s gonna be them.

(MORE)

(CONTINUED)

55.

CONTINUED:

ALISTER (cont'd)

And if I rock into a museum with two

dozen armed guards with this thing, I

may as well shoot myself.

Carrick nods agreeably.

CARRICK

Are you sure, Alister? This ain’t no

run-of-the-mill robbery we’re talking

about ‘ere.

ALISTER

It ain’t about me, bruv. I ain’t

letting some fuckin’ spics kill our

little bruvva for a mess we lead him

into.

CARRICK

We ain’t lead him into shit, he got

himself in this mess and here we are

fixing the fuckin’ situation.

ALISTER

It's our fault he's in this

predicament. He's a good kid with

alota potential. His only downfall is

that he idolized us and we lead him

into the fuckin’ gutter via drugs and

gamblin'. Our oldies would turn in

their grave if we turned our back on

him, now.

Carrick agrees. Stands.

CARRICK

You’re right, bruv. We need to

protect him. It's our duty as family.

EXT. ALISTER & CARRICK’S HOME – CONTINUOUS

Under a bridge. A graffiti ridden shipping container in the

slums of town. A gas guzzling generator makes a hell of a

CARRICK

Take the wheel for me, would ya?

Alister takes the wheel. Carrick takes a hit from the pipe.

CARRICK

So, how we go about getting a magnum,

Einstein?

Carrick takes over the wheel.

ALISTER

Well, it's simple really, we gonna

rob some shitty little service

stations for everything they have in

the till, then we’re gonna take our

little skinny white asses to a big

ol’ gun store and buy one.

CARRICK

Hang on a fuckin’ tik. You want to

rob service stations for money to buy

a gun?

ALISTER

Yeah.

CARRICK

Why don’t we just rob a fuckin’ gun

store?

ALISTER

Because, those gun store owners are

fuckin’ maniacs. Last year I tried to

hold up a gun store with that shitty

compact pistol you call a fuckin’

weapon and the Mug, pulled out a

shotgun the size of me fuckin’ leg.

CARRICK

That’s unpleasant, bruv.

make him look the part - stands behind the counter.

Alister approaches.

Alister backs off.

OLD CLERK

Oh, sorry we don’t have none.

ALISTER

Oh for fuck sake, really? after all

Alister turns to a fridge full of water.

You don't want trouble? Your eyes on

wielding a baseball bat, sure as hell

looked like trouble was about to

fucking emerge.

Old Clerk retraces his steps, back around the counter.

Alister tracks him with the pistol.

OLD CLERK

Don’t be silly now, don’t do

something you might regret.

ALISTER

Are you my fucking dad? Empty the

till into a bag, ya fat idiot.

Old Clerk loads a bag. Alister waves the gun around.

ALISTER

If you moved any fuckin’ slower you’d

fall over. Tik fuckin’ tok.

or nothing. They don’t hit the bag or

do whatever the fuck they do. They

calm themselves. So when they get

They’re level headed. They’re ready.

That’s your ring, bruv. There’s a lot

at stake here, a lot on your

INT. GANGSTER LIMOUSINE (PARKED) - CONTINUOUS

Sat next to a BLACK GANGSTER. Grayson acts like a spooked

dog in a cage. Whimpering like a bitch.

Nephew gets in after Grayson. Sits opposite. Shakes his

head.

NEPHEW

Why a strip club, Grayson?

Grayson, close to imploding.

NEPHEW

You know, I ain’t ever been a fan of

titty bars. They give me blue balls.

You ever get that, honkey?

Grayson’s got no idea.

NEPHEW

Nah, you ain’t ever had blue balls.

Being a good looking dude with all

the money in the world, daddy being

as powerful as he is. Yeah, I bet you

seen a lot of ass in your time. You

ever fucked a stripper, Grayson?

Grayson, calming down.

NEPHEW

How much ya pay? Five hundred? One

thousand? One hundred? Those hundred

dollar strippers are nasty. I like my

strippers at the thousand mark. They

the good ones, but I ain’t ever paid

for sex before. I like to earn my

pussy.

Grayson, more confused than scared.

NEPHEW

So, contrary to what everyone

believes, us gangsters don’t like

paying for sex all that much. Which

brings me back as to why I don’t

indulge in strip clubs. Them sexy

girls, they be grinding up on you,

rubbing their pussies on your dick,

flaunting them big ass titties in

your face.

(MORE)

(CONTINUED)

98.

CONTINUED:

NEPHEW (cont'd)

You can grab a hold of them titties,

sometimes they even let ya suck on

‘em, but ya can’t fuck ‘em. It’s like

going to a fancy restaurant and

ordering a big juicy steak. And then

just looking at it. It’s cooked to

perfection, just waiting to have it’s

ass eaten, but you can’t. You can

touch it, you can smell it, but you

just can’t fucking eat it.

Other Gangster laughs, Nephew joins in.

Grayson smiles, looks to Gangster and Nephew. Laughs with

them.

Nephew and Gangster stop laughing when Grayson starts. They

glare at him.

Grayson stops laughing. Serious face.

NEPHEW

The fuck you laughing at, honkey?

Grayson shakes his head.

NEPHEW

Ain’t nothing to laugh about.

Grayson agrees.

NEPHEW

Alright, I’m going to stop fucking

with you. You gone and fucked up real

good, boy. You went against not only

your father, but my uncle too. You

know who my uncle is?

Grayson nods.

NEPHEW

Now, we been in contact with your old

man and everyone's willing to forget

about your little charade if you do

us one thing.

Nephew pulls a photo up. Shows Grayson:

A picture of Julian.

Grayson recognizes him.

(CONTINUED)

99.

CONTINUED:

NEPHEW

You know him?

GRAYSON

Yeah. A freak.

NEPHEW

A freak is damn right, nigger. If

John Wayne Gacy and Ted Bundy had a

love child, it would be this fool. I

once seen him super glue thumbtacks

to a mans hand and made his jack off

with it.

Grayson, disgusted.

GRAYSON

What do you want me to do?

NEPHEW

What the fuck you think? We need this

crazy ass cracker taken the fuck out.

Grayson, nervous. Stutters.

GRAYSON

How am I meant to find him?

NEPHEW

Mother fucker intercepted some

important shit regarding the watch

and it’s buyers. He’ll be there

tomorrow to make a mess. I’d go

myself, but hell, mother fucker

scares the shit out of me.

GRAYSON

Surely you have someone more capable?

NEPHEW

You’re expendable, cocoa puff. I’ll

lay it out for your dumb ass. You got

two options. Option one: You kill

him. Option two: We kill you. If you

possess any self preservation, you’ll

do it and do it without asking why,

who or what the fuck.

Nephew pulls out a Colt. Takes aim on Grayson.

NEPHEW

So what’s it gonna be, vanilla slice?

Shoved from the car, CLUB PATRONS side step Grayson as he

falls onto the sidewalk.

NEPHEW (O.S.)

Get the fuck out my car, honkey.

No answer.

GRAYSON

(into phone )

Fuck.

Grayson hangs up the phone. Brushes himself off. He turns to

make tracks down the sidewalk.

The watch is for the taking.

A brave Security Guard takes out Alister from the side with
