FADE IN: 

EXT. ALLEYWAY - NIGHT 

An alleyway stretches and twists like a writhing snake, before fading into the darkness. The screeching birds overhead seem to pass judgement over passers-by.

The acrid smells rising from the sea of debris almost choke innocent souls that venture into the alleyway.

A smartly dressed man, TONY, 33 and very  dangerous, walks further into the alley until every last person around him is swallowed into the darkness. 

His footsteps echo off the towering walls shrouding the alley. He looks suave and entirely at ease with himself.

He could be described as cool and collected.

The moonlight glints off Tony’s shades, before he removes them and places them inside his jacket pocket, as he reaches a pair of shabby, scratched doors. 

Crates encrusted with dirt and rotten food are stacked either side of the doors.

Rats are scurrying around them looking for a morsel of food to eat. A caption written above the door, written in Chinese characters reads, FIRE EXIT. 

Tony boots open the doors. He enters the restaurant, alert.

INT. RESTAURANT. CORRIDOR - NIGHT

Tony emerges into an old worn, stone corridor. Pungent aromas waft in from the kitchen, which can be seen through an old wooden door, and a crackly radio can be heard.

INT. RESTAURANT KITCHEN - NIGHT

The kitchen is dirty and greasy, burns and stains enhancing its dismal appearance.

Rows upon rows of disgusting, unwashed crockery and alike lay on the rotting wooden sideboards, and many more are hanging up from the shelves above the kitchen units.
 
Tony storms through into the kitchen and is confronted by a gang of four CHEFS.
						CHEF # 1
				Hey arsehole! Who the fuck 
				are you?

						TONY
				None of your business, so get 
				out the way and nobody will get 
				hurt.

						CHEF # 3
(sarcastically)
				Ha ha.

The four chefs arm themselves with knifes and choppers. 

Chef # 1 lunges at Tony with a large knife, which he easily deflects, smashing the chef’s face into the kitchen counter.

The three other kitchen staff charge at Tony, who starts to throw the utensils off the counter at the men. 

He walks towards them.

Chef # 2 throws a punch at Tony, who picks up a wok and hits his hand away with it, before hitting him again twice in the head.

Chef # 4 kicks the pan from Tony’s hand, grabbing his neck, wrestling him towards the side, but Tony spots a lit blowtorch on the side and grabs it, as Chef # 3 hits him in the stomach.

Tony aims the blowtorch at Chef 3’s crotch and singes Chef # 4’s face, then with a vicious flurry of punches, Tony knocks Chef # 4 out.

Chef # 3 is running around with his pants on fire, screaming as he leaps into a large sink of water, butt first.

Tony exits the kitchen.

INT. RESTAURANT - HALLWAY - NIGHT

Tony dusts off his suit, glancing back at the kitchen before sauntering off.

The hallway is plain and miserable, carpeted in a threadbare scarlet carpet.

An old picture of the laughing Buddha hangs crookedly from the wall.
 
Tony straightens out the picture before hearing a noise which comes from one of the rooms behind him. 

He walks over and listens with his ear to the door.

CUT TO:

INT. RESTAURANT - BACKROOM - NIGHT

The backroom is decorated in cheap, tacky Chinese style décor.

A garish gold and red dragon motif wallpaper adorns the wall, and various pictures of Chinese gods and Buddha’s are hanging from the walls.

In the scruffy room, the air is filled with thick cigar smoke and heavy music plays in the background.

FIVE MEN are sitting up a table playing cards. 

PLAYER # 1 reaches over to take the prize from the centre of the table.

						RIC
				What the fuck are you doing’ 						motherfucker?

						PLAYER # 1
				I’m takin’ what’s mine, I got 
				a pair of queens.

						RIC
				Well bitch I’ve got a pair of 
				aces, so kiss my butt.

Ric leans over and grabs the winnings from player # 1 stacking them in front of him, smiling.

						RIC (cont’d)
				Can’t nobody beat me at this 
				game?

The other players cheer.

Suddenly the door BURSTS open and Tony storms in with two pistols drawn. 

Tony starts shooting.

In the ensuing pandemonium the men duck and jump for cover, returning fire.

Tony kills player # 1 and 2 with his first shots. 

As Ric is panicking and trying to reload his gun frantically, Tony kills players # 3 and 4.
 
Tony hears sobbing. He walks over, unemotionally to where the noise is coming from.

						RIC
					  (sobbing)
				Please don’t kill me, please, 
				please.

Ric gets to his feet, beseechingly holding on to Tony’s arm.

						RIC
				Did Jack send you? He did, didn’t 
				he? I will pay you double what 
				he’s paying you, just don’t kill me!
 
						TONY
				He told me you’d say that. You 
				knew this would happen but you 
				didn’t care. Now you’ve gotta pay!

Ric bursts out crying, his snot dripping onto Tony’s sleeve. 

Tony looks disgusted, pushes Ric away, and without compassion, shoots him in the head. 

Tony puts away his gun, and tries to clean his shirt sleeve on Ric’s jacket, remorselessly.

EXT. ALLEYWAY - NIGHT

Tony walks out of the takeaway, gets in his car and drives off.

INT. JACKS OFFICE - NIGHT

Tony barges into the room.

The office is very elegant and African orientated. 

Tribal relics, spears and shields are placed throughout the room.

He walks straight past JACK, who sits behind the large desk.
He opens up the drinks cabinet, pours out a glass of whiskey, pouring it down his throat.

He winces.

He takes the bottle of booze and his glass and slumps into the chair opposite Jack.

He takes a cigar from a fancy box situated on Jack’s desk.

						JACK
				You should go easy on that 
				stuff, it will make you sloppy, 
				you’ll lose your edge. And you’re
				costing me a fortune with that 
				shit, it costs $300 a bottle and 
				you drink a lot of the stuff
						
						TONY
				Cut it out, Jack, I’m tired.

						JACK
				I’ve got another job for you, but 
				I think I’ll talk to you in 
				the morning when you have 
				sobered up.

						TONY
				I’m sober now, don’t you talk 
				to me like I’m some fool from 
				the street!

A look of fear comes across Jack’s face, but it quickly fades.

						JACK
				HEY! Remember who you’re talking 
				to here. I pulled you out of 
				the fucking gutter, you’d be 
				some cracked out motherfucker 
				if it weren’t for me!

Tony keeps knocking back the drink as Jack is talking to him.

						TONY
				My life is shit, and don’t 
				keep telling me how you dragged 
				me from the gutter, you should 
				have left me there, maybe I would 
				have been a happy crackhead.

Tony grabs the bottle from the table and stumbles out of the room, still puffing on the cigar.

CUT TO:

EXT. TONY’S APARTMENT BLOCK - NIGHT

The apartment block rises up into the darkness as far as the eye can see. 

The darkened garden casts leafy shadows in the slivers of moonlight cutting across the floor.

The soft hiss of water hitting marble can be heard echoing softly around the garden.

INT. TONY’S APARTMENT - NIGHT

The apartment is very expensive looking, and oriental orientated, with soft burgundy walls and carved mahogany furniture situated around the living-room.

Over in the corner of the room is a Buddhist shrine, dedicated to his mother.

An old picture of his mother and a young boy rests in the lap of a carved wooden Buddha, with incense and flower petals scattered around them.

Tony walks over to the shrine, lights three incense and prays, before placing the incense in a burner.

He blows a kiss to the picture and walks into the kitchen. 

He takes off his blazer and hangs it on the back of a chair, rolling up his shirt sleeves to his elbows, not noticing the blood on his cuffs. 

He turns and walks over to the kitchen sink and turns the hot tap on, and picks up the soap. 

He then blinks while looking at the tap three times, and dips the soap under the water three times. 

He turns the soap in his hands, again three times, before vigorously scrubbing his hands with it. 

He then rinses the soap off thoroughly. He repeats this ritual two more times.

He examines his hands afterwards, reassuring himself the blood and germs have really gone.

INT. TONYS’ BEDROOM - NIGHT

Tony walks over to his bed and throws himself on it. He picks up the remote control and switches on the TV. 

He falls asleep.

(LATER)

BANG! BANG! Tony reaches for his gun from his bedside cabinet.

He creeps quietly over to the door.

He points his gun at head height against the door.

						TONY
				Who’s there?

						MICHELLE
				It’s Michelle, open up.

Tony hides his gun under a coat on the table beside the door.

Tony opens up the door; Meet MICHELLE, Tony’s girlfriend of 8 years. 

She is thirty years old and stunningly beautiful.

She walks in and closes the door behind her.

						MICHELLE
				Where have you been? I’ve been 
				trying to call you all night!

					 	TONY
				I’m sorry babe, I have been 
				out of town on some business. 
				I’ve only been back a couple 
				of hours and I fell asleep.

						MICHELLE
				You could’ve called and let me 
				know.

Tony reaches over to move some hair that is covering her eye. 

As he’s brushing the hair out of the way, she notices that his shirt cuffs are covered in blood.

Michelle glares into Tony’s eyes with tears
running down her face.

						MICHELLE
				I thought you’d give that up! 
				You promised that you wouldn’t 
				do this anymore!

Michelle sits down on the sofa and Tony kneels in
front of her and lovingly gazes into her eyes. 

						TONY 
				I’m trying to, hon. I really 
				Am, but… 

						MICHELLE
				Oh you just shot someone by 
				accident! Everything you told 
				me was a load of bullshit!

						TONY
				Listen to me! I can’t just walk 
				out on him like that, he has 
				been like a father to me.

						MICHELLE
				If he really cared about you, 
				would he make you do this kind 
				of job?

						TONY
				You just don’t realise what I owe 
				this man! He was there for me when 
				I was at my lowest and had no one 
				else to turn to!

						MICHELLE
				You don’t owe him anything,
				don’t you think you have paid 
				your debt?

Tony puts his head on Michelle lap and starts to cry.

Michelle strokes his head to comfort him as he sobs.

INT. TONY’S APARTMENT. BEDROOM - NIGHT

Tony and Michelle are lying in bed asleep.

The phone RINGS! and wakes Tony.

						TONY
					  (groggily)
				Hello!
						JACK
				Tony, its Jack. I need to see 
				you right away, come to the 
				office now!

						TONY
				Its 5.30 in the morning, Jack, 
				can’t it wait? 

						JACK
				No!
 
The phone goes dead and Tony hangs up.

						TONY
					(whispering)
				Fucking arsehole.

Tony gazes at Michelle, who’s still sleeping. He strokes her face gently.

Quietly and carefully, Tony gets out of bed.

INT. JACK'S OFFICE - DAY

Tony barges in looking more pissed off than usual.

						TONY 
				What is it Jack?

						JACK
				Sit down and just...

						TONY
				I don’t want to sit down, just 
				tell me what couldn’t wait until 
				the morning!

						JACK
				Hey, it's the morning now.

Jack walks over to the window and takes a deep breath, smelling the fresh morning air.

						TONY
				What's up, then? Stop playing 
				around.

Jack walks back to his desk, reaches into his drawer, takes out an envelope and places it on his desk.

						JACK
				Here you go, it's another job,
				should be nice and easy for 
				someone of your expertise, if… 
				they are sober. Should be a 
				walk in the park for you,
				but be careful, it’s important.
				Don’t fuck it up!

						TONY
				I don’t like walking in the 
				park! And it doesn’t sound very 
				easy from where I’m sitting!

Tony takes the envelope from the table and puts it inside his jacket.

						JACK
				This one is really important,
				don’t let me down.

Tony gets up and leaves.

EXT. STREET - DAY

Tony gets on his motorcycle and drives off.

INT. CAFÉ - DAY

Tony walks over to the counter and gets a WAITRESS’ attention.

						WAITRESS
				Hi there, what can I get you?

						TONY
				Can you tell your manager
				that Tony is here to see him?

						WAITRESS
				I will just check if he’s in, 
				he popped out a couple of 
				hours ago, but he should be 
				back by now. Just have a seat 
				I won’t be a moment.

The waitress walks off .

						TONY
				Thank you.

Tony walks over to an empty table and sits down.

He lights up a cigarette and takes a long drag.
A MAN on the next table starts coughing and turns to look at Tony.

						MAN
				Do you mind? This is a no 
				smoking area. Can you please 
				put that out?

Tony just looks at him and takes another long drag and insolently blows the smoke in the man's face.

The man coughs.

						MAN (cont’d)
				If you don’t put it out I'm 
				gonna have to ask you to step 
				outside.

						TONY
				If you don’t shut up about
				me smoking, I'm gonna smoke you!

The man whips around and doesn’t look back.

The waitress walks over to Tony.

						WAITRESS
				Just follow me, I will take 
				you to him.

INT. CAFÉ. BACKROOM - DAY

The waitress leads Tony towards the back of the café, over to a door. She opens up the door and shows Tony in with a hand gesture. 

Tony walks in and the waitress closes the door.

JOE, sits at a desk in front of Tony.

						JOE
				Hello my friend, how's it 
				going?

						TONY
				I'm good, and you?

						JOE
				Couldn’t be better. 

						TONY
				Hey Joe, I wont be able to stay 
				Long, I’ve got some business to 
				attend to.
						JOE
				Do you want something to drink?

						TONY
				No thanks Joe, I can’t, gotta be
				somewhere. 
				
						JOE (cont’d)
				So, you still working for 
				that fat piece of shit, Jack 
				then?

						TONY
				Yeah. 

						JOE
				I hate that motherfucker, I’d
				love to blow his fuckin' brains
				out of his fat fuckin’ head.

						TONY
				I know you’ve had your grievances 
				with him, but he's sort of saved
				my life.

						JOE
				I know what your saying man, but 
				what he done to me when we done 
				that job was out of order. I 
				know I fucked up a little bit 
				but he had me beat up in front 
				of my baby girl.                                                                           

						TONY
				I wont be doing this much longer. 
				I’ve got a couple more jobs to 
				do, just to tide me over and I'm 
				out, that’s it, finito.      

						JOE
				Good luck with that, brother. 

						TONY
				Did you get the stuff I ask for?

						JOE
				Yep, it’s done. I stashed them 
				in a safe deposit box in the 
				city. There is no safer place 
				than that, is there?

	Tony takes out  a thick wad of cash from inside his jacket pocket and throws it on the table, in front of Joe.
						JOE (cont’d)
				What’s that for? Its not necessary, 
				I got them cheap, and you’re a 
				brother.

						TONY
				Take the money!

Joe takes the cash and puts it into his desk drawer.

Joe hands Tony a slip of paper.

						JOE
				That’s the details they’ll ask 
				you for.

						TONY
				Thanks. I must go now, thanks 
				again my friend.

Tony stands up and shakes Joe’s hand. He walks to the door and exit’s. 

INT. CITY BANK - DAY

Inside the bank is sparkling and glittering, and looks a little artificial. 

Tony walks straight over to the service desk, which is the only queue that is empty.

A BANKER walks over to assist Tony.

						TONY
				Hi there, I have some belongings 
				here in a safe deposit box that I 					would like to pick up.

						BANKER
				Certainly, sir, if you just come 
				with me, I’ll show you right there.

Tony follows the banker out of the main area of the bank and over to the stairs. 

The wide wooden staircase leads up into a smaller section of the bank.

The corridor is quite wide and short, and rather plain compared to the rest of the bank. 

On the left is six doors leading off the corridor, which are opposite a wall lined with safe deposit boxes. 
						BANKER
				Here we are sir. If you would 
				give me your name and password 
				then, please?

						TONY
			 	My name’s Joseph… Joseph Wang.

						BANKER
				And your password?

						TONY
				Hong Kong

						BANKER
				Just wait here a moment.

The banker hurries away, returning a minute later.

						BANKER
				Here is your other key.

						TONY
				Thanks.

Tony walks over to the wall full of safety boxes and takes out two of them.

						BANKER
				Would you like some privacy sir?

						TONY
				Yes please.

The Banker shows Tony into one of the rooms.

The room is very small and plain, with bare whitewash walls and no windows.

The room consists of just a cheap, tacky looking table and a chair.

						BANKER
				If you need anything sir, I’ll
				be just down the hall.

						TONY
				Thanks, but I should be ok.

Tony puts on the two boxes on top of the table, and starts emptying its contents.

He takes out a berretta hand gun, checks its clip and places it carefully on the table in a perfect line with the grooves on it.

Next he takes out a pump action shotgun, scrutinises it and takes out a case of shells from the box. 

He bangs one of the shells three times before putting it inside the gun. He repeats the process five more times. 

He lines the shotgun up next to the berretta, also perfectly aligned with the grooves.

He takes the last gun from the box, a sub machine
gun. He checks the gun thoroughly before placing it in line with the other weapons.

INT. CITY BANK. RECEPTION AREA - DAY

FOUR MEN walk into the bank, all wearing large shades and rain coats.

All of a sudden, all four men pull out machine guns out of their coats.

						GUNMAN # 1
				Everybody on the floor, hands 
				behind your head! Anybody play’s 
				the hero and they are goin’ home 
				in a fucking body bag! Oh, this is 
				a robbery!

Gunmen # 2 and 3 run over to the counters, where a couple of BANK CLERKS are standing, scared stiff.

						GUNMAN # 2
				Who’s the manager?  

						CLERK
				He’s over there.

The gunmen look to the other end of the counter. They see a fat man lying on the floor, face down with his hands behind his head.

						GUNMAN # 2
				That fat fuck over there?

The clerk nods her head and the two gunmen run over to the to the manager and drag him to his feet.

						GUNMAN # 2
				You the fuckin’ manager?

						MANAGER
					   (panicking)
				Yes, please don’t kill us, 
				just take anything you want, 
				take it all but just don’t hurt 
				us.

						GUNMAN # 2
				I was planning to take what 
				I want anyway, so shut the 
				fuck up fat boy and get your 
				arse over there and open the 
				safe!

Gunman # 2 drags the manager over to where the safe is situated, just behind the counters in the corner, and slams him into it, face first.

						GUNMAN # 2 (cont’d)
				Open it!

The manager starts putting the code in, his hands trembling with fear. 

He finishes the code and presses the enter key. Nothing happens.

						MANAGER
				Oh my God, I’m sorry just --

						GUNMAN # 2
				Are you playing with me here? 
				You better stop fucking around 					or I’m gonna shoot you in your 
				fat arse. Open the fucking safe!

						MANAGER
				I can’t concentrate with that 
				thing in my face, you’re making 
				me nervous!

The gunman puts his hands in the air and takes two steps backward.

The manager re-enters the password and the safe opens, revealing stacks upon stacks of cash.

Gunman # 2 smiles and walks a little closes to the vault.

He hit’s the manager in the face and knocks him clean out.

						GUNMAN # 2
				YEAH! Now were in business.

Gunman # 4 runs over into the vault and starts packing up the piles of cash into two large black bags.

Gunman # 1 is pacing up and down when he spots a man in his early twenties trying to make a run for it and he shoots him in the back.

The hostages start SCREAMING and Gunman # 2 runs over.

						GUNMAN # 2 (cont’d)
				What the fuck man, what are 
				you doing?

						GUNMAN # 4
				He was trying to escape I had 
				to take him out.

INT. PRIVATE AREA - DAY

Tony hears the shots and quickly packs up the weapons, into a large duffel bag that he takes from one of the boxes.

He keeps his berretta in his hand as he ventures out of the room, carefully and quietly. 

He sneaks down the stairs and witnesses the robbery.

Gunman # 1 spots Tony and he runs over to the rest of his gang.

						GUNMAN # 1
				SHIT! Somebody else is here 
				trying to rip us off! He’s
				over there.

Gunman # 2 runs a little closer to the stairway, spotting Tony and ducks down behind a desk, firing a couple of shots on his way.

						GUNMAN # 2
				Nothing ever runs smoothly 
				in this shitty business. This
				is all I need, a fucking Gung
				Ho vigilante trying to fuck
				up my day.

						TONY
				I’m not here for the money, 
				just let me walk out of here.

Gunman # 4 takes a shot at Tony, who retaliates instantly, killing him with a clean shot to the head.

His corpse falls on top of Gunman # 3

						GUNMAN # 3
				You motherfucker! You wanna 
				play then, huh? I’ll fucking 
				show you!

Gunman # 3 jumps up and marches towards Tony, who is hiding behind a wall. 

Gunman # 3 is like a madman, not caring to take cover as he shoots openly at Tony.

						GUNMAN # 2
				(In direction of Gunman # 3)
				What the fuck, Jimmy? Get down!

Gunman # 2 start shooting at Tony, just missing Gunman # 3.

Tony puts his head around the corner and is nearly shot in the head, but he whips his head back behind the wall.

He reloads and shoots off a few rounds, not even bothering to look where they are going.

He hears a loud thud and takes a peek. Gunman # 3 is lying on the floor, dead.

Tony runs out from behind the wall, right over to the last two gunmen, without even being noticed that he is at the side of them.

They are still shooting forwards, where Tony was last standing.

Tony places his gun directly on top of
Gunman # 1’s head and pulls the trigger, killing him instantly, spattering blood and skull all over the wall.

Gunman # 1’s bloody corpse falls right next Gunman # 2’s 

Gunman # 2 is to terrified to even look in Tony’s direction.

						GUNMAN # 2
				Oh no, FUCK NO…   

Tony takes aim and is about to pull the trigger.

						GUNMAN # 2
				Dude, I’ve got a hundred grand
				in this bag right here, we’ll
				split it 50/50!

Tony pulls the trigger, CLICK, he’s out of bullets.

Tony knocks him out with the butt of his gun, picking up the bag of cash and walks out of the bank.

EXT. BANK - DAY

Tony looks ahead at the masses of police assembled before him.

						POLICEMAN # 1
				FREEZE!

Tony raises his hand above his head, when one of the police officers open fire. 

Tony ducks and runs back into the bank.

INT. BANK - DAY

Tony runs over to Gunman # 2, who is just coming to. Tony grabs hold of him and slaps him in the
face a couple of times.

						TONY
				Hey, wake up.

Gunman # 2 wakes up, horrified to see Tony standing above him.

						GUNMAN # 2
				Oh shit, not again, please I’m 
				sorry…

						TONY
				What’s your name?

						GUNMAN # 2
				BOBBY! My names Bobby.

						TONY
				Ok Bobby, I need your help,
				we got to go now, if you want
				to live, you better get up, now!

Tony open his bag and takes out his sub machine gun and tucks it into his waistband.

Then he grabs his shotgun out, and readies himself.

Tony grabs Bobby and stands behind him, walking towards the exit.

						BOBBY
				What’s going on?

EXT. BANK - DAY

The police are swarming everywhere, the whole area is full of them.

Bobby is trembling with fear. He screams.

						BOBBY
				Hell no, I’m…

						TONY
				This is the bank manager. Anybody 					makes a move and he’s history!

						BOBBY
					   (to Tony)
				What? You better know what you 
				are doing, I don’t wanna get shot 
				I hate violence! 

Tony walks behind Bobby, down the steps, aiming his gun at anyone that moves.

Suddenly, somebody takes a shot at them and Bobby screams, again.
 
Tony fires back, hiding behind a large concrete post.

Tony blasts the bonnet of one of the squad cars, blowing it up.

The police scatter behind some of the other cars.

Tony spots a kitted up sports car.

						TONY
				Is that your car?

						BOBBY
					(panicking) 
				Yeah!

Tony shoots two officers in the legs and one in the chest, and moves a little closer to the car.

Gunfire rips through the air. 

Tony shoots another two cops in the chest after Bobby is almost shot.

Tony makes his way towards the car, clearly using Bobby as a human shield.

Tony takes out his machine gun and shoots both guns simultaneously, with Bobby cocking back the shotgun after every round.

Finally they get to the car and jump in, leaving the police in their wake.

Tony careers his way through the busy traffic, quickly pursued by police.

INT/ EXT. CAR - DAY

Tony is weaving in and out of traffic and Bobby looks on in horror as they almost collide into a wall, but Tony is at ease and skilfully manoeuvres down an alleyway. 

Two squad cars smash right into the wall.

EXT. STREET - DAY

Another police car swerves past the battered, smoking  cars and continues on Tony’s tail. 

Another car joins the chase a bit further along the road.

Tony can’t manage to shake them off.

INT. CAR - DAY

At last Tony spots a bit of open road and puts his foot down.

Bobby can’t bring himself to look out of the window and hides his face behind his hands, nearly throwing up.

Tony looks over at him in disgust. 
Tony spot two cars parked up with a space just about big enough to fit another car in.

						BOBBY
				No way!

EXT. FURTHER ALONG STREET - DAY

Tony handbrakes the car and slides right into the space, perfectly.

Police cars speed past them, not even noticing that they are there.

INT/ EXT. CAR - DAY

Bobby is relieved that the chase is over and sits back and closes his eyes, trembling slightly.

						TONY
				You ok?

						BOBBY
				I think so.

Bobby checks himself for bullet holes.

						TONY
				Look, I’m sorry about your
				boys, but I had no choice, they
				would have done the same to me.

						BOBBY
				Wrong place, wrong time, hey
				thanks for not killing my 
				arse too, no hard feelings.

						TONY
				Of course not, thanks for 
				your help.

Tony takes out a stack of ten thousand dollars from the bag and hands it to Bobby.

						TONY
				Here, I need the rest. Early
				retirement, you know.

Bobby looks at Tony as if to say, ‘Tight bastard’. He is too scared to say it out loud though.

The two men shake hands and Tony exit’s the vehicle. 

FLASHBACK: TWENTY YEARS EARLIER. 

SUBTITLE: HONG KONG. 1985

INT. YUNG HOUSE HOLD - NIGHT

The room is small and sparsely furnished, and is grotty in addition to that.

The broken 40- watt light is casting a dim, flickering light around the room. 

The television is a tiny portable with a fuzzy picture, and is resting on an old wooden crate.

ZHANG SHU YUN is sitting on a sagging sofa, absorbed in a television programme, when a 15 year old Tony bursts into the room. 

He is clearly out of breath, injured and panicking. 

						SHU YUN
				Tony what have you done now? 
				Get over here! 

There is a LOUD KNOCK on the door.

VOICE (o.s)
It's the police, open up

Shu walks nervously over to the door and opens it.

A POLICE OFFICER walks in.

He is sweating and is trying to catch his breath.

Tony is hiding on the stairway.

						SHU YUN
				I'm so sorry officer, what has 
				he done now?

						POLICE OFFICER
				He's been causing trouble down 
				at the market place again, fighting.

						SHU YUN
				I told him about this but he 
				just will not listen to me, I 
				just can’t control him, I don’t
				know what else to do. 

They both walk over to the sofa and take a seat.

						POLICE OFFICER
				Where's his father?

						SHU YUN
				He... he passed away when Tony 
				was seven. He misses his him a 
				lot.

						POLICE OFFICER
				I'm sorry to hear that. I'm 
				gonna let this go but if I see 
				him down there again, that's
				it I'm taking' him in.

						SHU YUN
				Oh thank you sir, thank you 
				so much!

						POLICE OFFICER
				This won’t happen again.

Shu Yun stands up and shows the officer to the door.

The officer walks out.

						SHU YUN
				Tony, get here now!

Tony walks from the stairway over to his mother with his head down.

						SHU YUN
				Do you see what you've done 
				now? If he sees you again, he 
				will send you to prison!

						TONY
				I'm sorry, mum.

						SHU YUN
				Just behave yourself. Stop 
				hanging out with those hooligans, 
				stop fighting...

						TONY
				He started it.

						SHU YUN
				It doesn't matter you should 
				have walked away.

DANNY, Tony’s 9 year old brother, is standing in the living room doorway.

						SHU YUN
				Go and play with your brother 
				while I make some supper.

Shu Yun walks into the kitchen.

Tony and Danny sit down on the floor and start to play with some toy cars. 

INT. KITCHEN - NIGHT

Shu Yun takes a pan out of the cupboard, but starts coughing violently and leans against the
side cupboard. 

Tony and Danny rush in.

						TONY
				Are you ok, Mum?

Shu Yun tries to hold herself back from coughing.

Tony helps his mum up and Danny tries to help too.

They sit their mum down and Danny gets her a drink of water.

EXT. HONG KONG MARKET PLACE - DAY

The stalls are tiny and cramped together, and they stretch as far as the eye can see. 

The air is thick and humid, and many aromas, both putrid and sweet, mingle in the air. 

People are bustling about, yelling and shouting, negotiating and haggling.

Tony is standing with a group of THUGS.

We can see that they are scallywags.

One of the thugs takes an apple from one of the stalls and takes a bite.

The STALL OWNER spots him.

						STORE OWNER
				HEY! Get away from my stall, 
				you little punks!

The thug throws the apple at the store owner.

Two POLICEMEN are walking past and spot the disturbance.

Tony and his friends run away quickly pursued by the two officers.

EXT. ALLEYWAY - DAY

Tony is running as fast as he can with one of the cops hot on his heels.

Tony, still running pulls out an old pistol and fires behind him, not even bothering to look where he is shooting.

He looks back and sees the officer slump to the floor. 

EXT. QUIET STREET - NIGHT

A young man, LEI is standing alone on the sidewalk, smoking a cigarette. 

He is holding a small bag.

Tony appears from nowhere and startles the man.

						LEI
				Tony, you arsehole, you just 
				scared the shit out of me.

						TONY
				Hey, don’t worry, I'm just 
				playing around.

						LEI
				I heard what happened, lucky 
				I was running late. My Mum was 
				giving me grief about getting a 
				job. What went down anyway?

						TONY
				We was hanging out by the market 
				and two cops came over just as 
				Wong threw something at one of 
				the traders. They chased us and 
				one of them followed me and nearly 				caught me I shot at him a couple of 				times. I didn’t mean to get him, I 				just wanted to scare him away.

						LEI
				You’re gonna be in deep shit if 
				they catch you.
						TONY
				That’s why I'm goin' outta town 
				for a while.

						LEI
				Here's your bag.

						TONY 
				Thanks for this. When I'm gone 
				don’t forget to check on my Mum
				and Danny, ok?

						LEI
				Don't worry. I'll look after 
				them

They shake hands and Tony leaves.

EXT. HONG KONG HILLS - DAY

Tony is walking through some dense forest, in the hilly countryside, leaving all the smog and smells of the city behind him.

The air is fresh and clear, and the green pastures spread as far as the eye can see.

In the distance, on Tony’s right, we can see the mist rising from the city’s harbour.

As he follows the winding footpath, he spots something and hears SHOUTING, in the distance.

Tony runs over to see, FOUR MEN, kicking the shit out of some OLD MAN.

Tony picks up a thick branch from the ground and charges at them, waving it around like a crazy man.

He hits one of the men on the back, who turns around and punches Tony spark out.

The old man, struggling to get to his feet is punched again.

He hit’s the floor, stomach first.

Gangster # 1 jumps on top of him, grappling, trying to choke him out.

The old man and his foe wrestle desperately, and the old man flips his opponent, gets on top and out of nowhere pulls out a small knife -- starts stabbing his enemy in the face and head.
He jumps to his feet, grabs the gangster closest to him and slits his throat, dropping him to the ground.

The two other men look on in horror and then attack.

The first one runs at the old man, who goes at him rapidly, slicing everyone of his main arteries, leaving him limp.

He falls to the ground.

The other guy turns and makes a run for it.

The old man looks at his bloody blade, before throwing it at the man running away.

The man is hit in the back and slumps to the floor.

The old man walks over to Tony, who is lying on the floor holding his head.

FADE OUT:

FADE IN:

INT. OLD MANS HOUSE. LIVING ROOM - DAY

Tony lies sleeping on the sofa when…

A pair of hands tips a jug of water in Tony’s face.

He wakes.

(Every conversation between Tony and the old man is spoken in Cantonese.)

						OLD MAN (o.s)
				Lazy bastard! GET UP!

Tony drags himself to his feet. He walks to where the old man’s voice came from.

EXT. OLD MAN’S HOUSE - DAY

The old man stands there with his hands behind his back.

Tony looks at him.

						TONY
				What do you want? I’m leaving 
				now.

						OLD MAN	
				You showed courage back there,
				let me repay you?

						TONY
				How?

						OLD MAN
				Well you don’t fight too well
				Do you? I will give you a 
				few lessons.

						TONY
				Hey! I can beat up anybody, that 
				guy got lucky!

						OLD MAN
				Sure.

						TONY
				I can!

						OLD MAN
				Sure you can, come on lets get 
				this over with and you can be 
				on your way and I can get on 
				with more important things.

						TONY
				If you’re too busy, stick the 
				lessons, I don’t need them 
				anyway!

						OLD MAN
				Oh, calm yourself boy, I 
				always pay my debts, so shut 
				up and take note!

The old man rolls up his sleeves.

						OLD MAN (cont’d)
				HIT ME!

						TONY
				You are too old, I don’t wanna
				hurt you.

The old man, slaps Tony across the face, hard and fast.

Tony doesn’t wait for a second request, he attacks wildly.

The old man quickly moves out of the way.
Tony swings away, his blows full of hate and anger, while the old man easily out manoeuvres him.

The old man smiles at Tony’s frustration and speaks to him as they fight.

						OLD MAN
				What’s wrong with you, look at 
				your opponent when you are 
				in combat.

Tony tries even harder to hit him…

Without warning, the old man strikes him with a blow to the face, that send him flying backwards and hits his head on the floor.

Tony sits up and coughs, whilst wiping the blood from his mouth.

The old man laughs loudly.

						OLD MAN
				Ha ha ha! I’ve fought some weaklings 
				in my time, but you…

Tony gets up and attacks but he doges his punches easily.

The old man sighs and all of a sudden, LEAPS into the air and HITS Tony in the chest with a FLYING KICK, sending him crashing into some thick bushes.

Tony emerges from the bush, picking out the twigs out of his hair.

The old man stands waiting for him. He looks in Tony’s direction and waves him over with a motion
of his index finger.

						OLD MAN
				Care to try again?

Tony’s face beams with determination. He is determined not to quit. A clear case of death before dishonour.

Tony brushes himself off and tries again.

Tony tries every possible combination in the book, but the old man spins out of the way.

He kicks both of Tony’s legs out from underneath him, sending him crashing to the floor.
Tony gets up.

Again he attacks… again he eludes.

Every time he strikes, he blocks.

With ease the old man leaps at Tony and wrestles him to the floor, grabbing hold of Tony’s foot. He SCREAMS.

He twists some more…

He cries out.

The old man releases his grip.

						OLD MAN
				Your next lesson is tomorrow, 
				now get out of my sight!

CUT TO:

EXT. OLD MANS HOUSE - DAY

The old man stands outside, obviously waiting for something…

Tony runs out from the house, with his jumper only half on. He puts his arm in the other sleeve.

						OLD MAN
				You are worse than a woman, boy!
				HURRY UP GODDAMNIT!

Tony stands in front of the old guy.

The old man walks over to a rickshaw and sits in it.

Tony walks over and sits next to him.

The old man slaps Tony across the head.

						OLD MAN
				You stupid little fool! You’re
				driving.

EXT. DESERTED ROAD - DAY

Tony, sweating and out of breath has clearly been pulling the rickshaw for some time when…

A hand flies into frame and smacks Tony on the head.

						OLD MAN
				I’m starved, hurry up, I want 
				to get home this week!

INT. OLD MANS HOUSE - DAY

Tony storms through the house and slumps himself in one of the chairs that is situated around the table.

The old man glares at him.

He takes a small bowl and throws it across the table towards Tony.

Tony looks at the food.

						OLD MAN
				Thanks wouldn’t go a miss.

TIME CUT

EXT. OLD MANS HOUSE - DAY

Tony throws small knives at a target board at the other end of the garden.

Every one of them miss by a mile.

The old man shakes his head in disgust and walks away.

CUT TO:

EXT. QUIET ROAD - DAY

Tony jogs along the road, pulling the rickshaw with the old man sitting comfortably behind, smoking his pipe.

Tony is hit across the head again.

CUT TO:

Tony stands next to a massive cauldron shaped container full of icy water.

The old man pushes him aside.

He takes a couple of deep breaths before raising both hands and smashing his palms into the water.
A short while later.

The old man is still smashing his hands into the water, only now there is hardly any water left in the container.

He takes a step back and looks at his swollen hands.

						OLD MAN
				I want you to do the same!

						TONY
				I cant do that, I’ll break my 
				hands.

						OLD MAN
				Of course you can do it. This 
				is practised in the Great Shaolin 
				Temple as iron palm training. 
				This was taught to me by a monk 
				from there.

As they talk, the old man is filling the container with a hose pipe.

						TONY
				You were trained at Shaolin?

						OLD MAN
				Yes. I stayed there for a while
				when I was younger.

						TONY
				Why did you leave?

						OLD MAN
				Hit the water!

Tony grimaces apprehensively and walks over to the container.

						OLD MAN (cont’d)
				HIT IT!

Tony slaps into the ice.

						TONY
				Arrgh! I cant do it, I’ve just 
				nearly broke my finger on an ice 
				cube.

						OLD MAN
				You are defeating yourself in 
				your own mind before you have 
				even begun. Your hands can’t 
				be hurt by that ice. The ice 
				should be scared of your hand, 
				now hit it!

Tony hits it, lightly at first but then picks it up a little.

After a couple of whacks, Tony steps away from the cauldron, holding his hands by his chest.

						OLD MAN
				You haven’t finished yet!

						TONY
				I cant do it, my hands are 
				killing me.

						OLD MAN
				You cant, or wont? You son 
				a stray dog, get out of my 
				sight before I cripple you!

The old man huffs and turns to walk away when…

Tony begins to smash his hands one after the other into the water.

LATER

Tony still pounds his fists into the water. His hands almost reach the bottom as the container is nearly empty.

Tony falls back onto his backside clutching his bloody hand, crying in pain.

CUT TO:

INT. OLD MANS HOUSE. KITCHEN - NIGHT

Tony and the old man sit at the dining table opposite one another.

Tony sips at a cup of green tea.

						TONY
				Can I ask you something?

						OLD MAN
				No!
						TONY
				Why did you leave the Shaolin 
				Temple?

						OLD MAN
				It’s none of your business, just 
				drink up your tea. You have an 
				early start tomorrow.

						TONY
				Oh come on, just tell me!

						OLD MAN
				If I tell you, will you shut 
				the hell up?

						TONY
				Yeah.

						OLD MAN
				I killed one of my brothers in 
				a fight when I was eighteen years
				old. That is why I left. I was 
				given to the monks there, my 						parents couldn’t afford to raise 
				me. I excelled quicker than anybody 				there and surpassed even the older 				monks who had been there years before 				me. It was an elder who got jealous 
				of my skill.

						TONY
				And you were never caught?

						OLD MAN
				No, I sometimes wish I did and 
				I might have turned out differently.

						TONY
				You turned out pretty well, 
				what do you mean?

						OLD MAN
				You know nothing of my life 
				and you really don’t want to,
				so just leave it out.

The old man gets up and walks away from the table.

SUBTITLE: THREE YEARS LATER

EXT. OLD MANS HOUSE - DAY

Tony, now an eighteen year old man, stands blindfolded facing the same target board we seen him earlier throwing knives at.

The old man stands at his side.

Tony throws six knives one after the other at the board.

C.U of the target board.

The first knife hit’s the board, dead centre. As the second one hits, it knocks the first one out of its place. This happens six times.

The old man smiles as Tony takes off the blindfold and sees what he has accomplished.

CUT TO:

EXT. GARDEN - DAY

Tony stands in front of a small tree and proceeds to smash the bark from the tree with his bare fists.

CUT TO:

EXT. QUIET PATH - DAY

Tony jogs steadily, pulling the rickshaw with ease.

The old man sits in the back.

FADE OUT:

FADE IN:

INT. OLD MANS HOUSE - NIGHT

The old man lies in bed. It looks like he is dead already.

Tony sits at his side.

The old man COUGHS up some blood. Tony wipes it away.

						OLD MAN
				Tony?

Tony looks up at him.

						OLD MAN (cont’d)
				You have been a loyal student 
				my son, I will not forget you 
				on my journey to the other side. 
				Just promise me one thing…

Tony hears a NOISE coming from outside.

He stands up and goes to investigate. On his way out he picks up four knives from a small table beside the front door.

He notices some movement on the other side of the door and throws a blade straight through the door.

We hear a GROAN and a THUD.

The movement stops.

Tony opens the door and runs out.

EXT. HOUSE - NIGHT

Two MEN come at Tony from both sides.

Tony, armed with a knife in each hand stabs rapidly at Assassin # 1’s, leg as he tries to kick him.

Assassin # 1 backs off as Assassin # 2 tries his luck.

Tony blocks a right hander coming towards his face, grabs his attackes hand, manoeuvres behind him and slices under both of the would be assassin’s arms.

He stands still for a moment before slumping to the floor.

Assassin # 1 swings a punch at Tony’s head. As his fist is about to connect, Tony stabs him in the wrist, then in the throat.

Tony runs back into the house.

INT. OLD MANS HOUSE - NIGHT

Tony bursts into the Old Mans room.

He lies there, still.

						TONY
				SIFU! SIFU!

The old man looks at Tony.

						TONY (cont’d)
				Why did they come here? What 
				have you done?

						OLD MAN
				I told you I haven’t always been 
				a wise old man. When I left Shaolin, 
				I fell in with a rough crowd. Our 
				petty crime became more serious, 
				until we became one of the most 					violent gangs in Hong Kong.

						TONY
				You were a Triad?

						OLD MAN
				Yes. With my training at Shaolin, 
				I quickly rose ranks inside the 
				gang and became its most feared 
				assassin. Those guys must be somebody 
				from my past, trying to settle 
				an old score.

The old man drifts in and out of conscienceness.

						OLD MAN (cont’d)
				I want you to promise me that 
				you will always be true to 
				yourself, that is all I ask of 
				you. Don’t ever let anybody 
				corrupt you, understand?

						TONY
				I won’t, I promise.

FADE OUT:

FADE IN:

EXT. GRAVEYARD - DAY

Tony places a bunch of flowers on top of a grave.

We see a picture of the old man who taught Tony on the mountain top.   

EXT. BUSY STREET - DAY

Tony is walking along the street, lost in his own thoughts when…

A scruffy young man sticks his hand into Tony’s jacket pocket, pulls out his wallet and makes a quick getaway down the street. 

Tony chases after him and he is never more than a split second behind him.

Tony pursues the man into a dead end street. There is nowhere left to run.

						TONY
				Big mistake, pal!

As Tony goes in for the kill, we recognise the man’s face.

It’s Lei, Tony’s childhood friend.

						LEI
				Tony, is that you?

Tony looks puzzled. He doesn’t know this guy.

						LEI (Cont’d)
				It’s me, Lei.

						TONY
				Fuck Lei, what are you doing picking 				pockets?

						LEI
				I’m desperate Tony, I haven’t had 
				a fix all day. Can you help me out?

						TONY
				You’re a junkie!

Tony slaps Lei across the head. 

						TONY (cont’d)
				What the fuck happened to you, 
				huh?

						LEI
				I don’t know what happened, 
				alright. One of the guys told 
				me to try it. He said it was 
				better than sex. There is just 
				no getting away from this shit, 
				Its all over the place.

						TONY
				Well you must be quite a stud 
				because you look fucking awful! 
				Before I left I told you to look 
				after my family, how did you 
				manage that in your state? How 
				are they anyway? I’m just on my 
				way back home to see them.
						
						LEI
				Oh my God, you never heard?

						TONY
				Heard what?

EXT. ABANDONED GARDEN - DAY

The garden is leafy and overgrown, rather similar to a rainforest. 

A decrepit, crumbling house towers over it, casting a bleak, black shadow over the vegetation.

Tony is distressed, and is sitting on the steps of the small house, smoking a cigarette. 

						LEI
				I’m sorry man, I thought you would 				have known.

						TONY
				So, what happened?

						LEI
				After you left, your Mum fell 
				even sicker than she already 
				was. I looked after Danny when 
				she went to the hospital for tests. 
				They found a tumour in her stomach 
				and told her she only had weeks 
				to live. I tried to find you but 
				couldn’t.

						TONY
				I cant believe it, the one time 
				they needed me and I wasn’t 
				there for them. I was so scared, 
				I killed that cop.

						LEI
				No, you never, he was ok. 
				You hit  him in the shoulder 
				and leg. The cops came around 
				quizzing us but we said 
				nothing.

Tony exhales a long plume of smoke, before flicking the butt away and burying his face in his hands.

						TONY
				What happened to my brother?

Tony looks overcome with emotion, on the verge of crying but he manages to hold back his tears.

						LEI
				He was adopted by some rich 
				Chinese- American family and taken 
				to the States.

						TONY
				Do you know where?

						LEI
				Brooklyn.

EXT. AIRPORT - DAY

Tony and Lei are standing in a crowded area, with people all around them, rushing about, laughing and chatting.

						TONY
				Thanks. Look after yourself my 					brother.

Tony takes out his life savings. Not much, just over a couple of hundred dollars.

He reels of half and holds it towards Lei.

						TONY (cont’d)
				Here.

						LEI
				I cant take it.

						TONY
				Take the money!

Lei takes the money and hugs Tony. This is goodbye and they know they will probably never see each other again.

Tony breaks away and turns to walk into the airport.
 
	INT./ EXT. AEROPLANE - NIGHT

Tony is looking out of the window. He is smiling and looks really excited.

INT. AIRPORT - DAY

Tony collects his bag from the baggage rail and exits.

EXT. CITY STREET - DAY

Tony wanders around for a little while. He walks around investigating this place he has never seen before. 

He clearly likes what he see's.

Tony spots a small motel and walks in.

INT. MOTEL - DAY

Tony walks over to the check in area where he is greeted by a YOUNG STEWARD.

						STEWARD
				Hello there, and how can I be 
				of service to you today?

						TONY
				I would like a room please.

						STEWARD
				How long would be staying with 
				us?

						TONY
				A week, if that’s ok.

						STEWARD
				Of course. Would you like to pay 
				now or pick up your bill when 
				your leaving.

						TONY
				If it’s ok, I’ll pick it up when 
				I’m leaving.

						STEWARD
				Sure here's your key, you’re in 
				Room Eight. Just go up stairs 
				and it's the first door on your 
				left.

The steward hands Tony a room key.

						STEWARD (cont’d)
				Do you need any luggage taking 
				to your room?

						TONY
				No thanks, I haven’t got any.

Tony walks over to the stairway and makes his way to his room.

INT. MOTEL ROOM - DAY

The room is poorly decorated. The furniture is cheap and tacky, and the walls are bare.

Tony looks idly around the room.

EXT. STREET - DAY

Tony walks past a small café.

He notices a job advertisement in the window and walks in.

INT. CAFÉ - DAY

Tony walks over to the counter and is greeted by a CAFÉ WORKER.

						TONY
				Hi there, I’m just enquiring 
				about the job in the window, is
				it still available?

						CAFÉ WORKER
				Yes, are you interested?

						TONY
				Yeah, I’m new in town and need 
				to earn a living, fast.

						CAFÉ WORKER
				Well then, when can you start? I 					really need the help.

						TONY
				I can start right now if you 
				like.

						CAFÉ WORKER
				That’s great, just grab an apron 
				and we’ll get you started.

Tony takes an apron, puts it on and walks round the counter.

EXT. OUTSIDE CAFÉ - SEATING AREA - DAY

Tony walks over to a table where three HOODLUMS are sitting, carrying a tray full of food and drinks.

He places the tray on their table.

						HOODLUM # 1
				How long does it take to feed 
				a brother in this shithole? We’ve 
				been waiting here for an hour!

						TONY
				I’m sorry about that and I’m …

						HOODLUM # 1
				Who the fuck do you think you’re 					fucking with, Slope head!
 
						TONY
					  (muttering) 
				Fucking arsehole.

						HOODLUM # 2
				What did you just say motherfucker? 				You better walk yourself away before 
				I bitch slap you!

	A middle aged, Jack, is a couple of tables away hears the commotion and takes notice.

Tony suddenly attacks Hoodlum # 1 with a devastating strike to the chest, sending him flying out of his chair.

Hoodlum # 2 tries to hit Tony, Tony deflects his attack and hits him in the face with a glass filled with juice. 

Tony picks up a chair and smashes Hoodlum # 3 across the chest, knocking him clean out.

Tony rips off his apron, throws it away and storms off.

Jack who witnessed the fight hurry’s over to Tony.

EXT. SIDE STREET - DAY

Jack catches up to Tony who is storming down the street.

						JACK
				Hey there kid slow down, let 
				me talk to you for a minute. 

Tony glances back at Jack who’s trying to keep up with him.

						TONY
				Who are you? Just fuck off!

						JACK
				My names Jack, I just wanna speak 
				to you a minute.

Tony slows down and walks next to Jack.

						JACK
				I saw what you just did back 
				there, that was pretty impressive.

						TONY
				Thanks.

						JACK
				What’s your name?

						TONY
				Tony.

The two men slowly walk down the street. 

						JACK
				How long have you been working 
				here?

						TONY
				About four hours.

						JACK
				You’re joking, right?

						TONY
				No. I’ve only been in America 
				for two days.

						JACK
				So your gonna be looking for another 				job.

						TONY
				I suppose so.

						JACK
				Well I might be able to help you 
				out there. Listen to me Tony, I 
				know how hard it is to try and
 			make it here if you’re not white, 
				I know I’ve been there and it’s 
				not easy.

						TONY
				I’m listening.
           
						JACK
				You could have it all if you come 
				and work for me. The cars, the money 				hot chicks, whatever you want 
				it’s yours.

						TONY
				Sounds good to me.

SUBTITLE: SIX MONTHS LATER

INT. JACKS CAR - NIGHT

Tony has exchanged his old ragged look to a smart young man.

						JACK
				This is it Tony, no more running 					errands, beating people up, are you 				ready for this?

						TONY
				I’m ready.

Tony exits the car.

EXT. ROADSIDE - NIGHT

Jacks car speeds off.

Tony walks over to a phone box looking really anxious as he takes a gun out from inside his coat.

We can barely make out a person standing in the phone box.

Tony rags open the door and points his gun at the mans head.

						MAN
				Hey dude, what the fuck… what… 
				what’s going on?

Tony shoots him 3 times and runs away

INT. MOTEL ROOM - NIGHT

Tony is sitting on the floor, leaning against the bed with his head in his hands.

END OF FLASHBACK

INT. CAR SHOWROOM - DAY PRESENT

Danny, mid twenties, and handsome, shakes a CLIENT’S hand after finalising a car sale and walks the man to his new purchase

						DANNY
				Nice doing business with you 
				Mr Jansen, good day to you.

						MR JANSEN
				Thanks a lot, Danny.

Mr Jansen gets in the car and drives back, Danny smiles and heads back towards the showroom

Danny sits at his desk with his friend and business partner MICHAEL.

						MICHAEL
				Are we still on for tonight?

						DANNY
				What do you think? Of course we 
				are, where’s Tom?

   				 MICHAEL
				He’s just locking the doors, 
				he’ll be here now

TOM walks into the room.

Danny leans into the desk drawer and takes out some blue prints and places them on the table.

The three men look over the plans.

(LATER)

						DANNY
				So everyone knows what they are 
				doing then.

						TOM
				Yeah, we got it.

						MICHAEL
						(To Tom)
				Did you get the tools?

						TOM
				Of course I got them.

Tom walks over to a picture hanging up on the wall. He moves it, revealing a safe.

He types in a combination and opens the safe.

Tom takes out a large bag, walks back over to the table and slams the bag on top of it.

Danny opens the bag and takes out a small machine gun. He inspects it thoroughly, aiming at various
object in the room.

Danny put the gun on the table and starts rummaging through the bag. 

He pulls out some hi- tech equipment and glances at it briefly before placing it back in the bag.

Tom and Michael each take a gun each similar to Danny's from the bag.

Michael checks the clip and loads his weapon.

Tom aims his gun at Danny.

						TOM
				Freeze bitch.

						DANNY
				Stop fuckin' around.
					(To Michael)
				Lets do this before he hurts 
				himself. 

Michael takes the gun from Tom and puts it in the bag, returning it to the safe.

INT. TONYS APARTMENT - NIGHT

Tony is sitting on his sofa, just drifting off to sleep. He is sweating and shaking.

FLASHBACK:

We see and hear flashing and banging, like gun fire and a young voice screaming.

						VOICE
				Daddy, what’s going on? Don’t let 
				him get us! DADDY!!

SCREAMS!!

The screams are chilling and whoever the voice belongs to is terrified.

We see lots of blood.

Then we see Tony emerge, covered in blood. His face, hands and clothes are covered in it.

END OF FLASHBACK:

Tony jumps up onto his feet and walks into the kitchen.

INT. TONYS APARTMENT - KITCHEN - NIGHT

Tony walks over to the kitchen worktop and grabs a bottle of whiskey from it.

He grabs the bottle and puts it to his mouth gulping down it’s contents.

Tony paces around the kitchen.

INT. TONYS APARTMENT - NIGHT

Tony places a bag on his bed and takes out a desert eagle hand gun. 

He checks the clip, loads it up and places it carefully on the bed.

He then takes out a shotgun and loads it up after a thorough inspection, then he puts it down next to the desert eagle. 

He sits on a chair next to the bed and takes out the envelope what Jack gave to him earlier. 

Inside is a picture of his 'mark'. 

He glares at the picture, memorizing it before putting in an ashtray and setting it alight.

He grabs hold of the whiskey bottle from the bedside cabinet and drains the last of it.

He picks up the bag and leaves the room.

EXT. JEWELLERS ENTRANCE - NIGHT

Danny, Michael and Tom sneak carefully up to the doorway.

Michael takes out a top-of-the-range glass cutter from his bag and places it on the window.

						MICHAEL
				Once I've cut this, you have exactly
				thirty seconds to cut the alarm.

						TOM
				We got it, C'mon hurry up I'm 					freezing.

Michael and Danny snarl at Tom who looks idle.

						TOM
				What?

When Michael takes the cutter off the window there's a hole big enough to squeeze through.

Danny rushes through, carefully to not make a sound.

Tom follows him, but trips over, smashing through the glass.

Michael runs in after Tom.

						
						MICHAEL
				Make a bit more noise, Tom, the 
				police might not be able to hear 
				you.

Danny is busy disabling the alarm system.

Danny puts his cutters to one of the wires and cuts it. He smiles.

						DANNY
				Now we are in business.

Tom takes out three bags from the one he's carrying, handing one each to Danny and Michael.

Quietly Danny and Michael get to work, smashing the counters quietly, filling their bags with jewels.

SMASH! Danny and Michael look at Tom who's on the other side of the room smashing the glass counters with the butt of his gun.

Danny and Michael look at each other astounded.

						DANNY
					(To Michael)
				I just don’t believe it, what 
				is he tryin' to do to us? 
						(To Tom)
				Hey! You fuckin' tool, keep 
				it down or somebody's gonna 
				hear us!

						TOM
				OK, ok, calm down!

INT./ EXT. CAR - NIGHT

Four THUGS pull up outside the jewellers.

EXT/ INT. CAR/ JEWELLERS - NIGHT

The thugs look on as the three men continue robbing the place, oblivious to fact that they are being watched.

						DRIVER
				We better get in there before 
				they Clear it out, c'mon lets go.

The four men exit the car.

INT. JEWELLERS - NIGHT

A noise from outside catches Michaels attention.

						MICHAEL
				Hey! Did you hear that?

						DANNY
				Hear what?

						MICHAEL
				I heard a noise coming from outside.

						DANNY
				It's probably the Feds, they 
				must have heard that stupid 
				bitch making all that noise!
				Go and check it out.

Michael takes out his gun and walks towards the door.

Michael is instantly shot at point blank range.

Danny and Tom look simultaneously at the doorway as the four thugs enter the building.

						DANNY
				Shit! Get down, Tom!

The two men duck for cover.

Danny starts shooting at the men, hitting one of them in the leg. The thug collapses on the floor, screaming in agony.

The other three thugs take cover behind jewellery cabinets.

Tom shoots randomly over the counter he's hiding behind, killing one of the thugs.

Danny creeps around the counters, sneaking up to one of the thugs and blasts him. 

As he's heading back to where he come from, Tom is still shooting, in Danny's direction, just missing him.

Danny manages to get back to where Tom is shooting from.

Tom kills another thug and runs out of bullets.

The driver realises he's the only one left and makes a run for it.

Danny spots him and takes a shot at him, hitting him in the leg.

EXT. OUTSIDE JEWELLERS - NIGHT

The driver jumps into his vehicle and speeds off.

INT. JEWELLERS - NIGHT

Danny and Tom come out from cover, they see the dead men on the floor and Danny spots Michael and runs over to him.

Tom places his hand on Danny's shoulder.

						TOM
				C'mon Dan, we’d better get out 
				of here.

(SIRENS)

Danny gets to his feet and they leave the building.

INT. JACKS OFFICE - NIGHT

The driver bursts into the room and hobbles over to Jack, who has a young lady with him.

He realises something is wrong.

						JACK
						(To lady)
				Can you excuse me for a moment?

The woman smiles, kiss's Jack on the cheek and leaves.

						JACK
				What the fuck happened to you?

						DRIVER
				Boss, somebody got there before 
				us, they were already inside 
				the place when we got there.

						JACK
				What? Robbing the place?

						DRIVER
				Yeah! They killed the others, 
				all of them and shot me in the 
				leg, the bastards.

Jack leaps out of his seat and walks over and grabs the driver.

						JACK
				You better find them, arsehole, 
				they are gonna pay dearly! 
				You... you fucking moron, 
				how did you let them get away, 
				how many of them was there?

						DRIVER
				About erm...erm nine of them 
				but we killed nine of them... 
				oh I mean eight.

						JACK
				Well why didn't you just wait
				for them to finish the job 
				then  ambush them? You fucking 
				idiot. They would have done
				all the work for you.

						DRIVER 
				Oh yeah, but we never thought 
				of that.

						JACK
				No shit, you... I can't believe 
				this shit!

Jack slaps the driver in the face.

						JACK
				You better find them. Now get
				outta my sight!

The driver limps out of Jacks office.

INT. HOUSE - NIGHT

Tony draws his gun, creeping down the hallway. He opens the door to the lounge and switches on the light, revealing...

A room full of gun toting GANGSTERS.

						JIMMY
				Hey there, we've been expecting you.

						TONY
				Shit!

The men start shooting at Tony, who dives out of the way of the gunfire.

						JIMMY
				You tell that piece of shit that 					Jimmy's running things from now on!

Tony is leaning against the wall outside the lounge, shooting back.

						TONY
				You wont be running anything because 
				you'll be dead in a minute!

Tony reloads his gun. He gets up and runs into the room killing gangsters # 1 and # 2 with his first couple of shots.

Tony hides again behind some furniture, out of ammo. 
He spots gangster 3 lift his head up, Tony runs over and slams his face into the wall, knocking him out.

Tony picks up his shotgun, standing up and running round the room ducking and diving out of the way of the bullets flying towards him. 

He shoots gangsters # 4, 5, 6 and 7 with a vicious attack. 

He then ducks for cover again.

Jimmy is hiding behind the sofa, shooting anything that moves.

Tony jumps up and blasts gangsters # 8 and 9 point blank.

Tony walks around the other side of the sofa and points his gun at Jimmy. 

Tony pumps him full of bullets, until he runs dry.

Tony steps over Jimmy's mutilated corpse and exits the room.

INT. BAR - NIGHT

Tony is sitting at the bar area sipping a glass of
fruit juice.

Tony stares at all the different liquors behind the bar. He cannot resist any longer.

						TONY
				Hey, bartender, can I get a whiskey 
				on the rocks?

						BARTENDER
				One whiskey on the rocks coming up.

The bartender pours out a drink and puts it in front of Tony.

Tony grabs the glass and downs its contents with one gulp.

The bartender brings Tony another whiskey.

						BARTENDER
				Here you go sir, its from the 
				pretty lady over there.

The bartender points across the bar and Tony spots the woman, young and beautiful, JESSICA.

She gets out of her seat and walks towards Tony.

						JESSICA
				Hi there, I'm Jessica and 
				you are…?

						TONY
				My name’s Tony, nice to meet you.

Tony reaches out and shakes her hand and she sits down.

Tony knocks back another drink that was in front of him.

						JESSICA
				You better go easy on that stuff 					before you pass out.

						TONY
				Ah, don’t worry baby, I can 
				handle it.

						JESSICA
				You wont be able to handle me if 
				you carry on.

Jessica smiles at Tony.

						JESSICA
				Lets get out of here.

Tony throws a $100 bill on the bar and they leave.

INT. TONY'S ROOM - NIGHT

Danny and Tom rush through the hallway into the kitchen, carrying a black bag each. 

They dump the bags on the table.

						DANNY
				What the fuck just happened 
				back there?

We can  see that both men are scared shitless.

						TOM
				I dunno man, poor Michael, I 
				cant believe it…

						DANNY
				I know, what are we gonna do? 

						TOM 
				Do you think someone was after us?

						DANNY
				What for? Were not into anything 
				that deep for someone to come after 
				us like that.

Danny hides the bags in a kitchen unit underneath the sink.

INT. TONY'S APARTMENT (KITCHEN) - DAY

Michelle is setting up the table and preparing breakfast. She has a real spark on her face, glowing in fact.

She walks into the bedroom where and gazes at Tony.

As she walks in he wakes up and looks in her direction.

						TONY
				Hi, baby. What are you doing 
				here?

He looks around the bed, making sure there is none  of Jessica’s clothing laying around.

						MICHELLE
				Oh, nice to see you too.

						TONY
				I never meant it like that, get 
				over here.

As Michelle walks towards him, he leans up and grabs her hand, pulling her towards him and kisses her.

INT. DINING AREA - DAY

Tony is standing at the sink, washing his hands.

Michelle is sitting at the table eating breakfast.

						MICHELLE
				Do you mind if I ask you something?

						TONY
				Of course not.

Tony joins Michelle at the breakfast table.

						MICHELLE
				Why do you wash up all the time?

Tony looks a little awkward.

						TONY
				Ah, its nothing, don’t worry hon’.

						MICHELLE
				You said I could ask you anything 
				and you would always tell me the 					truth. Remember?

						TONY
				It’s nothing honestly, it’s
				stupid.

						MICHELLE
				You can tell me I wont think 
				its stupid.

						TONY
				Alright, but if this causes 
				an argument, its your fault, 
				you asked for it.

						MICHELLE
				Okay I can handle it.

						TONY
				Okay then, it was about 11 years 
				ago when I  first started out … are 
				you sure you wanna hear this?

						MICHELLE
				Just tell me already!

						TONY
				It was one of the first jobs I done. 
				All I was supposed to do was take 
				out some guy who was getting in the 
				boss’ way. I was told he’d be alone
				in his apartment. When I burst through
				the door, his wife and child were
				in the room. He was running and 
				ducking all round the place, 
				trying to shoot me. But when I saw 
				his family I was going to leave. 

						MICHELLE
						(sobs)
				But you never!

						TONY
				No, how could I? Some crazy man 
				was trying to shoot me! I had to 
				shoot back or I would have been 					killed. I was nervous as hell it 
				was my first real hit. I‘d killed a man 			before that but this was different.  
				I chased him into the kitchen and 
				he was cowering behind his little girl 				begging me not to kill him…

						MICHELLE
				No Tony, tell me you never hurt
				that little girl!

Michelle is now crying uncontrollably.

						TONY
				Listen to me! It was an accident. 
				I just pulled the trigger 
				thinking that I would just hit
				him but the bullet went straight
				through her and she died right
				there. Her blood was all over 
				me. After that I just walked over
				to him and shot him in the head. If 
				I didn’t finish the hit, then I 
				Would’ve been the next target.

						TONY (cont’d)
				I’m so sorry, I never wanted you to 				find out, I never wanted anyone to 				find out, you’re the only one I’ve 				ever told. After that I just changed, 				when I got home I started washing the
				little girls blood off me, even when I 				knew it was gone I just couldn’t stop. 				Its been the same ever since, every 				time I wash it’s like I’m still 					washing her blood off of me. 

Michelle wipes away her tears.

						MICHELLE
				I can’t speak to you right now, I 					can’t even bring myself to look at 				you, you evil bastard!

Michelle stands up and turns to exit the room.

Tony jumps up and grabs hold of her.

						TONY
				Look I’m sorry I really am 
				if I could go back I would
				have just run straight outta 
				there. It was an accident.

						MICHELLE
				FUCK OFF! Leave me alone I don’t 
				want to see you anymore, I’m 
				leaving!

Michelle is hysterical and starts to slap Tony in the face, but he just stands there, motionless.

Michelle runs to the bathroom and locks herself in.

Tony follows her.

INT. HALLWAY/ BATHROOM - DAY

Tony bangs on the door.

						TONY
				Michelle, what are you doing? 
				Just come out here and lets talk.

						MICHELLE 
				I’ve told you, no more talking 
				we are finished!

						TONY
				Come on don’t be like that, you
				asked for the truth!

Michelle is still in the bathroom, and the two of them continue their conversation through the door.

						MICHELLE
				Be like what? I just can’t pretend 
				it never happened, are you crazy?

						TONY
				I’m crazy for you.

						MICHELLE
				I’m crazy to be having a conversation 				like this with my boyfriend, ex 					boyfriend.

						TONY
				See what I mean when I tell you 
				not to ask about my past? It always 				causes problems.

Michelle opens up the door and walks out.

Her face is swollen from crying so hard.

						MICHELLE
						(sobs)
				I just thought you'd like to know, 
				I'm pregnant but you probably don’t 				give a shit, as long as you’re killing 				people you are happy.

Michelle turns to leave, distraught, but Tony runs over and stops her.

						MICHELLE (cont’d)
				Get out of the way, Tony, I’m 
				getting a termination, I’m not 
				bringing a child into this world 
				with a father like you, I won’t 
				Tony!

						TONY 
				Just sit down we need to talk 
				about this!

						MICHELLE
				There’s nothing to talk about, I 
				think it would be better if there 
				wasn’t a baby around all this mess 
				anyway. What if someone comes for 
				you one day and our baby is killed,
				huh, its happened before hasn’t it? 

						TONY
				Don’t you listen to a word I say?
				I’m finished with all this bullshit!
				You can't just shut me out like
				that, I'm the father and you cant 
				make a decision like this on your own. 
				Please, I can change, I will change 				just give me another chance, I will 
				go and see Jack and tell him I’m 					finished.

						MICHELLE
				I’ve heard this before Tony, but 
				I don't want our baby to be 
				around all this.
                                             
Michelle turns to open the door... revealing Jack and a friend of his, YUEN.

Michelle walks past them both and doesn’t even look at them.

Tony doesn’t look pleased to see Jack.

						TONY 
				Hey Jack, come in.

Jack walks in behind his friend and closes the door behind them.

Jack walks through the hall, looking round.

INT. KITCHEN - DAY

The three men sit down.

						TONY
				Would you like something to drink?

						JACK
				No thanks, Tony, we wont be staying, 				just a bit of business to take care 				of.

						TONY
				Who's your friend?

						JACK
				This is Yuen, he's my new body
				guard, very strong, very loyal. 
				It's hard to find that these days.

						TONY
				What's that supposed to mean?

						JACK
				That it's hard to find people
				who you can trust.

						YUEN
				Have you got a bathroom, I 
				need to take a piss.

						TONY
				Straight down the hall, last
				door on the left.

Yuen gets up and walks out of the room.

						TONY
				What is it that you wanna talk 
				about?

						JACK
				I've got another job for you, 
				last one I swear, nice and easy, I 
				know you want out.

						TONY
				You told me that job last night 
				would be a walk in the park, good 
				job I always go prepared, I nearly 
				got my arse shot off, they knew 
				I was coming.

Jack shifts uncomfortably in his chair.

						JACK
				I'm sorry. It shouldn’t have 
				been like that, someone must 
				have tipped them off. Will
				you do this job? You’re the 
				only one I can trust to do it 
				properly. Will you do it?
          
						TONY
				What’s the job?

						JACK
				I had this job set up, a good 
				score, some jewellers on the 
				high street. When my men got 
				there, some cheeky motherfuckers 
				where already there stealing my 
				shit. 

						TONY
				How much was The jewellers worth?

						JACK
				About two million, two and
				a half, tops. I will personally 
				give you a million dollars if 
				you kill these dickheads and 
				get my stuff back.

						TONY
				If its only worth two and a half, 
				why do you want to pay me a million 				dollars?

						JACK
				To tell you the truth, it’s not 
				about the money, it’s about respect. 				If I let these stupid fucks get 
				away with it, what’s to stop the 
				next lot trying it on?

Yuen walks back into the room.

						TONY
				Any ideas who it might have been?

						JACK
				I don't know anyone stupid enough, 
				or with that much balls, but they 					killed my men except for one, who 
				escaped with a bullet to the leg. 

						TONY
				If I do it I'm finished for 
				good that's...

						JACK
				Good man Tony, I've gotta go, 
				more business to take care of.

The three men get up and walk to the door.

						JACK
				Thanks again Tony.

Jack and Yuen leave and Tony shuts the door.

Tony shakes his head with disgust. He’s just accepted another contract.

EXT. OUTSIDE CAFE AREA - DAY

Tony is sitting at a table sipping a cup of
coffee. A MAN walks over to him.

He looks ridiculous, a middle aged white man dressed in Rastafarian clothes and speaking in a Jamaican accent. 

						JOHNNY
				Hey Tony, how's it goin' dude?

						TONY
				I'm good, have a seat.

Johnny sits down.

						TONY
				Sorry to get you down here on
				such short notice but it's a 
				real emergency.

						JOHNNY
				What is it man? You know you've only
				gotta ask and I’m there for me boys 
				Ya know what I mean man?

						TONY
				This conversation stays between 
				us, okay.

						JOHNNY
				Yeah man, what is it?

						TONY
				I need some info on a couple 
				of guys, but don't know anything 
				about them.

						JOHNNY
				Shit Tony, New York's a big 
				place, so it's gonna probably 
				take me a while, you know what 
				I mean?

						TONY
				Don't worry about it, as long 
				as your on the lookout, just 
				try your best.
						JOHNNY
				Have these guys pissed you off?

						TONY
				You could say that. They pissed 
				off my boss.

						JOHNNY
				If you don’t mind me asking, what 
				have they done.

						TONY
				I can’t tell you.

						JOHNNY
				C'mon man, I need something to
				go on, you've given me nothin' to 
				work with. Who am I looking for, 
				Oh a few guys from New York. Fuck
				that dude, I aint gonna find 
				shit with that, brethren. 

						TONY
				These people hit a place last 
				night, a jewellers. Some friends 
				of mine had the same place 
				planned out. As they were about
				to go in, the other guys were 
				already inside and they started
				shooting and my people got 
				killed, except one.

						JOHNNY
				Shit dude that’s really bad. Did 
				they get away with the stuff?

						TONY
				Yeah, of course they did.

						JOHNNY
				Do you think they will try and 
				sell the stuff as quick as possible?

						TONY
				I don't know. I wouldn’t want 
				to keep hold of it for too 
				long, there's way too much heat.

						JOHNNY
				They might keep it until the 
				Heat calms down a bit.

						TONY
				Maybe.
						JOHNNY
				Well somebody will know something.
				I'll find them.

						TONY
				Thanks Johnny, hey if you find 
				them, I’ll give you two grand. 

						JOHNNY
				Easy now, don’t worry I will 
				find them. 

Tony stands up and pats Johnny on the shoulder.

						TONY
				Just let me know if you hear 
				anything.

Tony takes out his cell phone and dials a number.

						TONY
				Hello Michelle, don't hang up 
				I really need to talk to you.

						MICHELLE (v.o)
				Are you still at the apartment?

						TONY
				No. I'm by the cafe on 5th street.

						MICHELLE (v.o)
				I'm just a couple of blocks from 					there, just give me a minute and 
				I'll be there.

						TONY
				Ok, see you in a minute.

Tony hangs up the phone and leans against the wall.

He walks back over to the café and sits on a chair, outside and lights up a cigarette.

(LATER)

Michelle walks over to Tony and he smiles.

						TONY
				Hi.

						MICHELLE
				Hi.

The two of them take a slow stroll down the street.
						TONY
				I'm sorry about before. I just 
				wanna be straight with you from now 				on.

						MICHELLE
				About what?

						TONY
				About everything. That prick is 
				asking me to do another job...

						MICHELLE
				I don't believe it...

						TONY
				Just listen to me for a minute! 
				All I have to do is find someone, 					that’s it, then I'm done. I want 
				to be there for my baby and for 
				you, spoil you two, whatever you 
				want, promise.

						MICHELLE
				Oh my God, Tony, settling down, 
				I never thought I'd see the day.

They both laugh and kiss each other gently.

						MICHELLE
				I love you.

						TONY
				I love you too.

EXT. / INT. CAR - DAY

Danny and Tom are having a heated discussion. Both men look scared, tired and a little nervous.

						DANNY
				He will show just calm down. 
				Fuck, you moan like a little bitch.

						TOM
				Don't be calling me no bitch. 
				We've been waiting for a half 
				hour already.

						DANNY
				See what I mean, moaning again.

						TOM
				Fuck you Danny!
Tom tries to get out of the car when Danny drags him back in.

						DANNY
				Just wait five more minutes, if he 				isn't here by then we'll go...

SMASH! SMASH!

Both sides of the car are ambushed, the windows are smashed on both sides and Danny and Tom are dragged out of the car.

EXT. SIDE STREET - DAY

A scuffle takes place between Danny, Tom and two masked attackers.

Two more men check the car and find the bag, which belongs to Danny. 

They grab it and make a run for it. Danny and Tom fight off the two attackers and chase after the other two.

The attackers are running through alleyways, throwing dustbins and bags of rubbish in front of Danny and Tony's path.

Danny catches up swiftly and jumps on the back of one of the men and knocks him to the floor.

Simultaneously, Tom brings the other one down.

Danny holds the attacker down and takes off his mask.

						DANNY
				Where's the bag, you little crack 					fiend?

						ATTACKER # 1
				I don’t know, I swear, I gave it 
				to him.

						ATTACKER # 2
				You piece of shit. I didn't touch 
				the bag.
					(to Danny)
				He's got it.

						DANNY
				Listen to me, If you don't tell me 				where it is I’ll kill the both of 
				you and bury you two in the fucking 
				dumpster! 

						ATTACKER # 1
				Tell you where what is, I don't 
				know what your talking about, so 
				you better just get it over with.

						DANNY
				Sure.

Danny points his gun at the attacker.

						ATTACKER # 1
				Arrgh, don't shoot, I'll tell 
				you where it is.

						DANNY
				Where what is?

						ATTACKER # 1
				Are you crazy man? 

						DANNY
				Yeah. Just show me where the 
				fucking bag is!

						ATTACKER # 1
				OK, OK! It's over there, behind 
				that trash.

Attacker # 1 points at some trash cans

						DANNY
						(To Tom)
				Watch him.

Danny walks over to the trash cans and has a little rummage. He picks up his bag out from all the trash.

						DANNY
				I've got it, lets roll.

						TOM
				What about these two?

						DANNY
				What about them? Fuck, they’re not 
				gonna do nothin'.

						ATTACKER # 2
				We won't say a word, you know a 
				little bribe never hurt nobody.

Tom winks at Danny.

						TOM
