                                   by
                             Andrey  Ruchkin
                           an original  script







                         copyright  1997


             FADE OUT


             INT-HOUSE-BEDROOM.NIGHT


             On a  wide spaciousness bed are sleeping ROMEO
       KOZLINETTI and LISA.Lisa wakes up,puts on dressing-gone
       and leaves bedroom.Romeo enjoyes sleeping alone.


       (O.S.)    Lisa's footsteps.Unloud scream of Lisa.Then
       her laughter.Then silence.And then heavy footsteps.KEN
       TASIAN slides to the bedroom with a  big  revolver in
       his mighty  right  hand.Kozlinetti is still sleeping.
       Sniffing loud.Snoring much.Tasian slightly bangs him
       on a  seat.  Kozlinetti  stops  to  snore,but  still
       sniffing.Tasian bangs him one more time on the  same
       place.Now,without any   slightness.Kozlinetti   lows
       and starts to shake his head. He partially wakes up.


                              KOZLINETTI
                     Honey!Stop it...Stop  kidding.I'm
                     so ti...red.I must sleep...sleep.


                              TASIAN
                     Wake up Romeo!Juliet is waiting!
                     You'll get  to  sleep enough
                     in prison.You'll get enough time
                     for it...
                     You're under arrest,assel!


             Tasian buries barrel of his big revolver  straight
       into Romeo's nose.And Kozlinetti openes his eyes.Now he
       is coming back from dreams to cruel  reality.


                              KOZLINETTI
                              Damn you !


             Kozlinetti looks left,looks  right,as he wants
       to escape. Then looks at Tasian.But cop is too busy
       for such eye plays.

                                                              2




             He gropes Kozlinetti's gun under the pillow.


                              TASIAN
                     Pretty thing!Too pretty for you.


             He get's Romeo's gun,steps back and throws
       a handcuff on the bed.Kozlinetti is sitting near
       the handcuff with a dark face.


                              KOZLINETTI
                     Damn you!Shit...


                              TASIAN
                       Shut up and put it on!


             Kozlinetti starts to sniff in an evil way.


                              KOZLINETTI
                     May be you'll let me to put
                     the dress on,first?!


                              TASIAN
                     Such a shy boy!
                     Streets are  empty  now.
                     But if  you want...Is it yours?
                     From latest styles!


             Tasian picks up Lisa's shorts and throws it to
       Kozlinetti.But Romeo flings it back.


                              KOZLINETTI
                            It's not mine!


                              TASIAN
                     Are you sure?Come on,man!Put it
                     on your head...

                                                              3




                             continue
                              TASIAN
                     And it will be on a right place.


             EXT-NIGHT-STREET

             Kozlinetti slowly crawls out of the front door.
       He is in the handcuff,in different colour shoes.He is
       dressed without any care.His hair is tousled.In whole,
       he looks like a punk rocker.Ken Tasian follows him
       with revolver in hand and smile on lips.FRED PSPICK,
       Tasian's partner is waiting in police-car.Street is
       empty,but  suddenly appears very quick and VERY OLD MAN.


                              VERY OLD MAN
                     What's going up here,hah?Have any
                     right to do,what are doing,hah?!


                              TASIAN
                     Sure gran-pa...I'm a cop.
                     He's a thief.And everything is OK.


                              VERY OLD MAN
                     Ye?It good,hah!Good night then...


             And very old man dissapeares impetuosly.Like a ghost.
       Meanwhile Kozlinetti casts a glance up at the window of
       the second floor..Lisa's looking down and  shows  him
       her little  pink tongue.Kozlinetti gets anger,roars and
       Tasian very unfriendly loads him into the car.And sits
       down beside him.

             Pspick starts an engine and police-car sets out
       to darkness of the city.


                              PSPICK
                     Rat comes to a cage!We haven't got
                     any cheese...but we've got Lisa...
                     Hell bent  for  women  always
                     and everywhere,ye?

                                                              4




                             continue
                              PSPICK
                     Ken,by the  way,how many items
                     of accusation we've for this freak?


                              TASIAN
                     As I remember...mmm...four items.
                     Racket,drugs,double murder...


                              PSPICK
                     And what is the forth?
                     You named only three.


            Tasian is trying to speak in a cool official manner.


                              TASIAN
                     Being in a deep-drunk non-sobriety
                     condition, venemously pissed
                     at the  municipal building...
                     He was so drunk that  thought
                     of municipal being his personal
                     dear piss-pot!


             Pspick starts to laugh,losing vigilance and for one
       moment the car was about to kiss a corner of an old house
       with a lot of graffitti on it.


                              TASIAN
                     Keep your  eyes om the road,Freddy!
                     If you'll smash the car it wouldn't
                     be such  funny!We must get
                     this assel to the prison
                     as safe'n'sound as possible.


             INT-NIGHT-POLICE-STATION.


             Tasian and Pspick brings Kozlinetti inside.Puts him
       on a bench.

                                                              5






                              TASIAN
                      Enjoy a good sit,assel!


                              KOZLINETTI
                     Listen!I'll not answer on any of your
                     fucking questions until my lawyer'll came!


                              TASIAN
                     Who wanna ask you,assel?We know about you
                     more then enough.Keep silence,go on!


             Tasian gives   the   OFFICER-ON-DUTY  official  pa-
       pers.Officer-on-duty looks cool and chews a bubble gum.


                              TASIAN
                     Here's all things.A big fish we've
                     got tonight.


                              OFFICER-ON-DUTY
                     Ken,why if you arrest some punk
                     you're always doing it at night?
                     You've got  some  kind
                     of an insomnia?Am I right?


                              TASIAN
                     You're wrong,old man.No insomnia
                     or other  fuck...I'm  a  cop
                     in kind  of Dracula.Sleeping
                     all day.Working all night.


                              PSPICK
                     Great bloodsucker arrests
                     a motherfucker.Just an impromptu...


             But Tasian  stares at him angry and shakes head.
       He doesn't like such an "impromptus".

                                                              6




             Meanwhile Kozlinetti starts to fidget on his
       bench,looking from one cop to another.


                              KOZLINETTI
                     Hey!HEYYY!What about  a  phone!
                     A phone call?I've got a right
                     for a phone call.


                              PSPICK
                     If you've got the right
                     we've got the left.


             Officer-on-duty keeps on chewing bubble gum and
       looking threw official papers,throws the phone into
       direction of Kozlinetti's personal bench.Kozlinetti
       catches it like a professional goalkeeper.


                              KOZLINETTI
                     Thanks a lot!You're so kind!


                              PSPICK
                     This freak wanna wake up all
                     the city.


             Kozlinetti starts  to  dial the phone number...He's
       in a hurry...mistaken and starts to dial  one  more  time
       with silent  damnations.Starts to sniff and waits for the
     answer.


             Tasian leaves the office room,crosses the corridor
     and gets  inside  a  little corner room.Nobody's here.There
     are just a chair a table with a phone on it and an old pos-
     ter "ENEMY NEVER SLEEPS!" on the wall.Tasian picks up the
     receiver.And enjoyes eavesdropping  Kozlinetti's talk.


                              KOZLINETTI
                     Hallo!Damn...Hallo!Jacobsson!
                     I need   Jacobsson!IMMIDEATELY!

                                                              7




                               continue
                              KOZLINETTI
                     Sleeping...What the fuck
                     you talking about?Wake him up
                     and be quick!


             INT-NIGHT-A ROOM IN AN OLD VICTORIAN STYLE.
             An old grey haired servant talking on line with
       furious Romeo.

                     I'm coming to you right now!


                              KOZLINETTI
                     Hah!He's coming!For what the fuck
                     I dare to ask?I don't miss you!



                                                              10


                               continue
                              KOZLINETTI
                     There'll be no fucking inquest
                     right now...
                     I am waiting for you in the morning.
                     With money.That's all!
                     Do as I said!


                     Kozlinetti puts receiver on.


                              KOZLINETTI
                                Fuck!


                     Jacobsson throws receiver on.


                              JACOBSSON
                               Fuck!


                              TASIAN
                     I agree with you gentlemen...FUCK!


             Tasian puts his receiver on and leaves the  secret
       corner room.He's  returning  to the main office.Pspick is
       standing near front door,waiting for him.Kozlinetti looks
       at Tasian  in  ironical  way.And venenously grins at him.
       Tasian grins at Kozlinetti  too.In  a  more  venomous way.
       And on his road to the front door treads his left foot
       very heavily.Kozlinetti squeakes of pain  and  looks at
       Tasian in fury.


             EXT-NIGHT-STREET

             Tasian and Pspick are sitting in police-car.


                              PSPICK
                     Now what?This  freak will get free
                     tomorrow and  all the  work   goes
                     to hell!Shit...



                                                              11






                              TASIAN
                     It's a bad thing...really bad...
                     but may be,we can prevent it.


                              PSPICK
                     What are you talking about?
                     How we can prevent this
                     fucking shit?


                              TASIAN
                     We've got a lot of ways to do it...
                     We can robb  the  bank...
                     right now.Jacobsson  goes-where's
                     the money?-sorry!someone
                     robbed us...sir!We can also kidnap
                     the city  judge or invent some other
                     brilliant thing.Of a same kind.


             Pspick yawnes  twice  and  looks  at the watches.It
       shows 3.27 a.m.And Pspick yawns one more time.


                              PSPICK
                     Brilliant things...in a kind
                     of a  science  fiction...What we'll
                     do right now?


                              TASIAN
                     I think that our dear Romeo is in
                     a deep...deep...


                              PSPICK
                     ...shit.


                              TASIAN
                     ...in deep boredom now.
                     We can put some friends to him.
                     For a company.

             INT-NIGHT-POLICE STATION

             Officer-on-duty still is chewing his lovely  bubble
       gum.He just finishing reading documents and putting it on
       the table.


                              OFFICER-ON-DUTY
                     I've done the paper'ork.
                     Get him to camera!


             Cop #1 and cop #2 are coming to get Kozlinetti.


                              COP # 1
                     What's his name?


                              OFFICER-ON-DUTY
                     Tasian called him...an ASSEL.


                              COP # 1
                     Tasian calles everybody in such way.
                     Stand up,Mr.Assel.Time to go.


                              COP # 2
                     Walking terror of all lawyers...


             Kozlinetti stands  up  sniffing in an angry way and
       starts his short jorney to the camera,crossing the corri-
       dors with  cops  beside  him.Kozlinetti is limping on one
       leg:Tasian's boot was too heavy.


             Cop #1 openes the door.Twilight and silence are  in
       the camera.Big indifferent black man in a baseball cap is
       smoking a sigarette near the far wall,the noise of keys
       in the lock makes him no interest.And the newcomer too.





                                                              13




             INT-BIG NEON NOTICE


             ..."GUANCHGOU china  laundry".This  is  the notice,
       but there is no laundry inside,no laundry at all.There's
       a dancing club together with an opium den.Four opium
       smokers with their pipes are sitting in the corners of
       a rather big hall.As eastern gods.Silent and immovable.


             Disco music is roaring from the speakers and about
       of a two dozen of dancers are moving here and there.Among
       of then there are also two guys from TRIAD: GU TA LIN and
       CLO FE LIN.Each of them is dancing with his own girl-friend.
       Gu Ta Lin for one moment leaves girl #1,rolls to the corner
       still shaking in the music rythm and takes the opium pipe
       from hands of the silent smoker and inhales two times.
       He looks slightly mad and starts two shake two times quicker
       in his own personal ryhtm,quicker then the music.So,moving
       and shaking in a sich curious way he jumps back to girl #1.
       Starts to dance near her half a minute,then closes his eyes
       and screams with a kind of nostalgie in his voice.


                              GU TA LIN
                     Oh!An overgrowth of the native bamboo!
                     Oh,the Canton's bamboo!
                     How I miss for you!


                              CLO FE LIN
                            (to Gu Ta Lin)
                     Gu,you've got enough opium for today!
                     More then enough!It's time to stop!


             But Gu Ta Lin doesn't want to hear him,looking at his
       own well known girl #1 in a great surprise,as if he never
       seen her before.As if she looks like an alien.


             And  Clo Fe Lin goes on talking with his girl,girl #2.
       During the talks he's taking a comb,thinking that smth's
       wrong with his outstanding last style haircut.



                                                              14








                              CLO FE LIN
                     He always screams some bullshit after it.
                     Never mind...And be sure,baby,I'm a man
                     of another kind.


                              GIRL #2
                     I'm sure in it.Go on...you was telling
                     me your perfect neck-tie theory.


                              CLO FE LIN
                     Oh,ye!I remember...Well,neck-tie is a very
                     serious detail...our wise GranDaddy
                     from TRIAD always told us to dress well.
                     To dress refined.Just look at me!I'm looking
                     respectable...


                              GIRL #2
                     You looks brilliant,honey...Continue!


             Clo Fe Lin takes his comb one more time and does
       the same operation with his haircut.He's really fond
       of it.


                              CLO FE LIN
                     So,if you wanna look respectable,you must
                     think about neck-ties in a very serious way.
                     An easy example:a bright neck-tie for
                     black dress is not just vulgar it's just...


             He tumbles on a word.Cause at that moment Tasian and
       Pspick enters this dancing-opium-laundry-club with their guns
       ready.Pspick throws out the DJ and stops the misic.Silence
       falls down.All the dancers stops except Gu Ta Lin.He is still
       dancing in a quick heavy rythm.



                                                              15




             There is a little panic among the public.But when
       Tasian and Pspick wants to get dancing Gu Ta Lin and standing
       Clo Fe Lin out of the "club",three brave chinese boys starts
       to move their hands and legs as they are great masters of
       martial arts.One of them stops for a moment,thinking that
       a spring-knife is more useful for such an event.And with his
       spring-knife he jumps at Tasian.Tasian cuffs him very
       unfriendly.The knife flows to one side,his owner to another.
       Straight to a corner with an opium smoker.Smoker openes his
       eyes and looks at all the happening with a great drug
       interest.Pspick shots in the air and everything stands on
       it's place.


             Two other "great fighters" looses all their enthusiasm,
       put their hands back,stares at the ceiling and starts
       to twistle as nothing happened.Cops puts the hancuffs on Clo
       Fe Lin and Gu Ta Lin,while Gu Ta Lin continues dancing with
       handcuff on arms.


                              CLO FE LIN
                     What's the matter?Dances are not
                     prohibited in this country!


                              TASIAN
                     Who says you're arrested for dances?


             Gu Ta Lin stops dancing and suddenly starts to cry.


                              GU TA LIN
                     My native bamboo!Bamboo!


                              TASIAN
                     An opium dancer!Move!


             Tasian and Pspick takes both chinese to exit.





                                                              16


                              CLO FE LIN
                     Be careful,please!My dress is very
                     expensive!Don't  crumple my neck-tie!
                     Barbarians!


                              TASIAN
                     Shut up!Or I'll crumple your face!
                     You was so interested of arrest,dancer.
                     OK,I'll tell you.Kozlinetti have chattered
                     about some of your dirty deeds...
                     You'll get a long prison time...


                              CLO FE LIN
                     Kozlinetti?Fuck!I don't know what's
                     going on!


                              GU TA LIN
                     Bamboo!EEE!Kozlinetti!I'll kill him...
                     Right now!


             Gu Ta Lin suddenly starts to run.Very quick.Tasian
       throws Clo Fe Lin to Pspick and follows the runner.


             As they were running a Very Old Man appears from
       the corner and trips Gu Ta Lin.Chinese falls down and
       brokes his nose and all the face.It bleeds.


                              VERY OLD MAN
                     Don't be such in a hurry,chink!
                     Or you'll meet with Mao Ze Doon
                     earlier than  expects...Hah!


             Tasian runs to the point.Very Old Man stares at him.


                              VERY OLD MAN
                     Hah!You again!Son,you wanna get all
                     the city riff-ruff tonight?
                     And what you'll do tomorrow,hah?



                                                              17




                              TASIAN
                     I hope to rest tomorrow.
                     It was the best trip I ever seen!
                     Thanks for your help,gran-pa.


                              VERY OLD MAN
                     You're welcome!So long!


             Tasian gets Gu Ta Lin by the scruff of the neck
       and picks him up.Gu Ta Lin is still crying.


                              GU TA LIN
                     Bamboooo!Bambooo!


                              TASIAN
                     Shut up,roadrunner!
                     You have the right to keep silence.
                     So use it!


             INT-POLICE-OFFICE


             The corridor.Cop #1 and cop #2 takes Gu Ta Lin
       and Clo Fe Lin to the same camera where Kozlinetti is.
       Evil Romeo is lying on a bed with a sign of sad thoughts
       on his face.Black man in baseball cap is standing near
       the wall and smoking as before.Cops locks the door and
       leaves.Kozlinetti paid no attention on presence of the
       newcomers,but chinese looking inside the camera
       discovered Kozlinetti.And they likes such a discover.


                              GU TA LIN
                     Kozlinetti,is it you?!


             Kozlinetti looks at him with a great contemption.

                              KOZLINETTI
                     No!It's not me!It's the Pope!
                     What the hell do you want?

                                                              18




                              CLO FE LIN
                            (to Gu Ta Lin)
                           After you,friend!


                              GU TA LIN
                     Thanks,brother!


             And Gu Ta Lin roars,jumps to Kozlinetti with
       a savage scream and begins to beat him by feasts,legs,head
       and everything he've got.After half of a minute Clo Fe Lin
       joins to the beating process.But before it,he carefully
       takes off his brilliant neck-tie and hangs it on
       the grating,the same operation he is doing with his
       respectable coat.Looks at the small mirror on the camera
       wall,gets his comb-on-duty,changes his haircut in the way
       he likes more and after this runs to the battle field.And
       the mirror cracks with no sound.


             Indifferent black  man  is  suprised  watching
       such a non-suspected show.He even drops a sigarette.


                              BLACK MAN
                         (in a hoarse voice)
                     Such a friendly fucking meeting!
                     As if I'm back to Saigon!


             EXT-MORNING-STREET.


             The street where CROCODILE INTERNATIONAL BANK is
       situated.Tasian and Pspick are standing near police car
       not far from the bank front door.

                              TASIAN
                     You know,Freddy,..as I think
                     all the lawyers are a  kind  of
                     an evil  anticops.We do everything
                     we can,to get some assel to prison
                     and they  are  doing  everything
                     to get 'im free.

                     And another difference between us
                     is the money we get for our  job...
                     They get more...


                              PSPICK
                     How much he'll get in his hellish
                     suitcase?How much,man?


                              TASIAN
                     Enough to  get  our  assel free.
                     To get him free and enough to get
                     him out of the country.
                     If he'll get free,he'll not wait
                     for his own JUDGEMENT DAY.
                     He's an  assel,but not a fool.
                     He'll fuck off as quick
                     as he can.And his dear lawyer'll
                     carry a million or two...in his
                     hellish suitcase,as you said.
                     A great temptation to shot him
                     and take the money,ye?


                          Pspick smiles.


                              PSPICK
                     You absolutely right,Ken.But we can
                     overcome this suitcase temptation.


                              TASIAN
                     Stop talking.It's a show time.
                     Here he is.


             Jacobsson is  coming  out  of the bank with big and
       heavy "hellish" suitcase.He wants to get to his  car  but
       Tasian and  Pspick  apperas  on his way.They are standing
       with brightly smiles on their friendly faces.

                              PSPICK
                     Mr.Jacobsson!My God!Mr.Jacobsson!
                     What a meeting!Glad to see you.


                              TASIAN
                     Pretty morning,ye?And such
                     a pretty suitcase...I know
                     some fellows  that  can put a half
                     of a bank inside of such pretty
                     suitcase and they can do
                     it very easily.


                              JACOBSSON
                     Oh...oh...is it a ...a.robbe..ary?


                              TASIAN
                     Freddy,how do you think:
                     is it a robbery or not?Does it look
                     like a robbery?


             Pspick lookes over the sitiuation from his point of
       view and sways his head.


                              PSPICK
                     No.It doesn't look like a robbery.
                     I've seen  many robberys of
                     a different kind during my life.


                              TASIAN
                     You see!Don't  worry.It's  not
                     a robbery.Freddy is a clever guy.
                     He always  know what he's talking
                     about.Specially in the morning.


                              JACOBSSON
                     So...oh!So...you donna wanna
                     to robb me?


                                                              21





                              TASIAN
                     Frankly and ornestly we want
                     to do it,but we are trying
                     to dominate  this evil wish  with
                     all the willpower we've got inside.
                     Kidding!Generally speaking,we wanna
                     invite you to drink with us.
                     As I heard you are a famous
                     beer drinker.


             Tasian bangs  at  Jacobsson's bulky belly.Jacobsson
       gives a start and draws in his belly frightently.


                              JACOBSSON
                     Oh...gentlemen,I'm busy now...
                     I'm in a hurry.Let me go.


                              PSPICK
                     It's not friendly.
                     We are also busy,but we've got
                     a time for you.


                              TASIAN
                     Ye-ye...we invited  him to drink
                     with us.Easy...as old friends.
                     He just doesn't like our company,
                     I think.


             Tasian pokes lawyer's belly by revolver.


                              TASIAN
                     Asking you last time:are you going
                     to drink with us?


                              JACOBSSON
                            E...i...yee...



                                                              22




             Tasian hides his revolver back.


                              TASIAN
                     Good boy!I  know  one place...
                     it's not far from here.Let's walk
                     a little.Freddy,get the car-keys
                     from Mr.Jacobsson,I donna wanna him
                     to loose it.


             Pspick stretches  out his hand for the keys.And
       Jacobsson starts to runmage in his own pockets in a very
       feverish way.His  right  hand  is too busy with
       the "hellish" suitcase and he is too frightened to  get
       upon  an idea to  change  the  hands at time of runmage
       process.At the end,he finds the keys by right hand in
       the left  pocket of  trousers.Pspick  gets the keys and
       puts it in his own pocket.Then all the company starts
       to  move.


          (O.S.)
             Quiet sounds of a dead march.


         NOT FAR FROM THE BANK IS SITUATED "FUNNY JUDGE BAR".


             Threw the glass door is shown notice "closed".
       Tasian comes up  to  the door and knockes two times.
       Soon from the other side of the glass appears  CHARLIE,
       the  bar-owner.Charlie's  face  looks  very discontent
       and unfriendly first,but when he finds out who is
       knocking,he smiles and openes the door.


                              CHARLIE
                     Ken!What the  hell  are  you doing
                     here,fellow?It's too early.Can you
                     read? CLO-SED!


                              TASIAN
                     Charlie,I  can  read  and  I  know
                     it's too early,but Freddy and I...

                                                              23


                             continue
                              TASIAN
                     we've met a friend.
                     ONE FUCKING FRIEND.
                     And he  NEED  TO  DRINK right here
                     and right now.He  just can  die...
                     Only you can help'im,Charlie.
                     Be so kind!


             Charlie's looking as  he's surprised.He looks at
       Pspick and  Freddy smiles to him.He looks at Jacobsson.
       Lawyer is standing with a pale stone face with a  deep
       sadness in his eyes.


                              CHARLIE
                     Looking upon  the  sitiuation
                     I found that your friend  felt
                     bad.He's so pale.Get a heavy party
                     last night?OK...hell with  you.
                     Come in!


             And all the company is coming inside.The notice  on
       the door from the street is the same-"closed".


             INT-INSIDE THE BAR


                              CHARLIE
                     All right,guys!Be quick and tell me
                     what you gonna drink...I need
                     to prepare for the evening and make
                     some doing up here.


                              TASIAN
                           (to Jacobsson)
                     We'd better  ask  our  dear FRIEND.
                     So,assel,what kind  of  beer
                     you prefer at that time of a day?


             Chairs are  turned  off and now are standing on the
       tables.Pspick puts three of them on their normal position
       on the floor,preparing the sits for all the company.

                                                              24





             Jacobsson looks  at it and starts to dry cold
       sweat from his forehead  by  a  silk  handkerchief with
       an embroided words on it "Good  bye  cruel  world!"


             Fred Pspick puts a hand on lawyers shoulder and
       Jacobsson gets down on  an  earlier  preparied  chair.
       Puts his  "hellish" suitcase on the floor beside him and
       sighes like a man condemned to death.


                              JACOBSSON
                     Oh...have you Budwaiser?


                              TASIAN
                     Excellent!
                     Charlie,have we Budwaiser?


                              CHARLIE
                     Of course we have...
                     A bottle for each of you?


                              TASIAN
                     It's not for us...we're
                     on duty now.Even in a bar.
                     Charlie,look at this mighty belly,
                     look attentively...
                     and try  to  define how much beer
                     we need to full to overflowing
                     such a volume.


             Charlie starts  to  look  at  lawyer's belly with a
       great professional interest.Scratching his own  chin  and
       thinking.


                              CHARLIE
                     Very respectable  belly...
                     Very respectable.
                     I'm thinking about six litres.
                     Six!

                                                              25







                              TASIAN
                     You see!A look of a real
                     professional!
                     So,Charlie,.. bottle means
                     half of  litre...So  we  need
                     a dozen of bottles.Ye!
                     Charlie,a dozen of Budwaiser,please.


             Jacobsson gets  more  paled and more nervous during
       this prepearings for the "slaughter".


             SAME PLACE.SOME TIME LATER.


             There are  11  empty bottles on the table.The 12-th
       bottle is  still  closed.Pspick  is  reading  a   newspa-
       per.Charlie is washing the floor and dancing beetween the
       tables,trying to imitate Mick Jagger's voice hearing from
       the radio. \Rolling Stones "Satisfaction"\


                              CHARLIE
                     Satisfaction!SA..tis...Faction!


             Tasian is sitting cool as a cucumber,playing by  an
       opener.Then he puts the opener on the table.Picks up
       a metal cork from the last opened and empty bottle,bends it
       by two fingers.Then throws it inside the bottle.Sound of
       the fallen cork makes Jacobsson nervous.And Tasian picks up
       the bottle and shakes it like a rattle.It tinkles.Then he
       puts it back on the table.


             Jacobbson settles down near him with an empty glass
       beside himself.Lawyer is looking terrible.He "can get
       no satisfaction".He is hiccuping.He's drunk and the quantity
       of all  the beer he drunk,is making him sick.He is looking
       such as the beer is splashing not only in his belly,but
       also in his wise big head.


                                                              26





             Tasian is opening a new bottle,the last of a dozen.
       Opening it in a very artistic way.Jacobsson  starts
       to hiccup  faster and stronger and is trying not to look
       at the beer.He hates this drink now,with all his  soul.
       Lawyer's face gets a green'n'blue coloured.His sickness
       gets to maximum.


                              TASIAN
                    Hey man!You don't like the beer?


             Tasian drinks from fresh opened  bottle  slowly.His
       tasting it and shows that his getting high.


                              TASIAN
                     No...I haven't found the problem.
                     Beer  is  excellent.May  be  you
                     want more?


             Lawyer's face changes.He's trying to say something,
       but failes at the first time.


                              JACOBSSON
                     Please!I need to go to the toilet.
                     Immi...deately.


                              TASIAN
                     Charlie,does your toilet works well?


                              CHARLIE
                     It works well,but I haven't wash
                     it today.I usially do it later.


                              TASIAN
                     Nevermind!That's OK.Freddy,drop
                     all your papery news and accompany
                     Mr.Lawyer to the toilet.
                     I donna wanna him to get  lost...

                                                              27


                             continue
                              TASIAN
                     And I'll  call a police-station.
                     May be there are some news for us.
                     I think I have a right
                     for a one phone call!


             Tasian is coming to the phone,but Charlie stops him.


                              CHARLIE
                     Don't go on the freshwashed!
                     Step there...


             Tasian gets to phone by a dry way and starts to de-
       al the number.Pspick is busy with the lawyer.Radio now is
       playing LED ZEPPELIN'S "WHEN LEVEE BREAKS".


                              PSPICK
                     Come on,big and fatty!


             Jacobsson gets  up  and starts his heavy way to the
       toilet.He is moving slowly as he is  afraid  to  blow  up
       from a  too hard move.Meanwhile the beer is loudly splas-
       hing inside him.


             INT-THE PRISON HOSPITAL-SAME MORNING.


             Kozlinetti is situated on a bed.He looks such
       as he was beaten to pulp.Two doctors and cop #1 are
       beside him.Officer-on-duty enters.


                              DOCTOR
                     What's the matter with him?

                     Nothing serious.
                     Just a quarrel in the cell.
                     He's a very quarrelsome
                     son of a bitch...

             Kozlinetti,that "quarrelsome son of a bitch"
       opened his muddy black eyes.


                              KOZLINETTI
                     Where is my lawyer?
                     He must be here!


                              OFFICER-ON-DUTY
                     Your lawyer?Of course he is here!
                     Let me introduce to you Mr.Dusker!


             DUSKER is coming in,as if he is in a hurry.


                              DUSKER
                     Good morning,sir!
                     Forget about everything!
                     I'll get away all your problems.


                              KOZLINETTI
                     Fuck!Who is this clown ?!
                     Where is Jacobsson?


                              OFFICER-ON-DUTY
                     There is no Jacobsson or som'in such
                     a kind.The Law says that if you haven't
                     a lawyer we can give it to you.
                     And here he is.


             Dusker bows with a smile on his lips.


                              OFFICER-ON-DUTY
                     If you donna want Mr.Dusker,you have
                     the right to protect yourself by your
                     own poor brain resources,you're welcome.
                     Solve this problem now.
                     Mr.Dusker is a very busy man.

                              KOZLINETTI
                     Fuck!...Jacobsson!You're dead man!


             INT-CHARLIE'S BAR.


             Some time later.Tasian finishes talking,puts
       the phone back.He looks very content with the info
       he've got.


             Jacobsson creeps back to his chair from the toilet.
       He looks better now.He's hair and face and dress are wet.
       Pspick gets to the table too.


                              TASIAN
                     The levee was broken as I see...
                     Does he bathe there?


                              PSPICK
                     Ken,I can tell you what
                     he was doing there,but I don't think
                     that you'd like to hear 'bout it.


                              TASIAN
                     All right.Then I can tell you more
                     pretty'n'interesting thing.Our poor
                     friend,our dear Romeo,was putten
                     to a camera with two very very evil
                     chinese boys  from  the  TRIAD...
                     There was a little quarell
                     between them  and a little
                     italo-chinese war has takem place.
                     Romeo loose.He  was  beaten
                     to a pulp and now he enjoys life
                     in prison  hospital.I wish him
                     to stay there until a JUDGEMENT DAY.


             Jacobsson starts to howl in a quiet way.

                                                              30






                              PSPICK
                     I think that these chinese guys
                     must get an additional helping
                     of noodles for such a good job!


                              TASIAN
                     Good idea!


             Tasian lookes at Pspick,Pspick  lookes  at  Jacobs-
       son,Jacobsson lookes  at  Charlie,but Charlie is too busy
       with the floor.He have no time for such a bullshit.


                              TASIAN
                     I also have another news...
                     A bad news for you,Jacobsson.
                     You lost your client.
                     Romeo chose another lawyer.
                     Better then you...A real ornest man.
                     I'm talking about Mr.Dusker!
                     Know him?

             After Tasian's news Jacobsson startes to giggle.
       In a very nervous unnormal way.


                              JACOBSSON
                     Do I know Dusker?!Do I know!
                     Hi-Hi-hi-hi!
                     As they said he can lose
                     133 trials of 132.
                     He is a king of loosers...
                     Walking legend.


             Suddenly he stops to giggle and sadly shakes
       his head.


                              JACOBSSON
                     O,God Almighty! Romeo'll kill me.


                                                              31





                              TASIAN
                     If he got such an outstanding law-man
                     You have no reasons to worry.
                     Romeo'll get all what he deserved.
                     I hope that Mr.Dusker'll brilliantly
                     loose this trial as all the others.
                     So!Our dear lawyer,what we'll do
                     with you now?May be you would
                     like some noodle too?Or more beer?


                              JACOBSSON
                     Oh...oughh!Nooo!


                              TASIAN
                        (in a horrible voice)
                     You're a strange...really
                     mysterious guy.If you were paying...
                     But we  are treating...
                           (with some sadness)
                     You're an unfortunate guy,lawyer.
                     Very unfortunate.You  were  in
                     a wrong place at the wrong time.
                     Your fucking client...this assel
                     Romeo Kozlinetti will get you even
                     from a hospital.And when he'll get,
                     he'll ask you,he'll ask you
                     in a very unkindly way:
                         Where you've  been
                     sick  motherfucker,when I was
                     staying in  this  fucking  damned
                     calaboose?When I  was  wrestling
                     there with two evil chinese?
                     Where the  hell  you was
                     at that moment?!
                         And you,as an ornest goodguy,
                     will answer him:
                         Sir!When your were staying
                     in this damned fucking calaboose
                     I was  drinking  a good beer
                     in an accompany of my old friends.
                     It will be the holy truth,
                     but I have a little  doubt,that
                     Kozlinetti would be happy to hear

                                                              32


                             continue
                              TASIAN
                     such a thing.And his bandits,too.
                     Kozzlinetti is  a very nervous guy.
                     He'll order to shoot or to cut you.
                     No difference:cause the result
                     will be the same.


                         Jacobsson drunkly sobs.


                              JACOBSSON
                     It's true...aughhh!
                     He  said:if I'll spent two nights
                     in prison...your own third  night
                     you'll spent on the grave-yyaaard!


                              TASIAN
                     As I heard he's a man of a word.


                              PSPICK
                     Very cruel and very dangerous!


                              TASIAN

                     use  the  moment!Get  the  money
                     and scram!Scram to the edge

                     We'll get you to airport.
                     Remember:we're your friends!


                              PSPICK
                        (speaking as a bad cop)
                     An airport?
                     He'll vomit all the plane.


                              TASIAN
                        (speaking as a good cop)
                     Someone can think that you're
                     a big boss from PAN AMERICAN.
                     May be he'll vomit it,

                              TASIAN
                     but the plane problems
                     is not our buisness...
                     We are talking about a man's
                     life to save!Plains...


                              PSPICK
                        (in a low voice)
                     And if he'll vomit a car?


                              TASIAN
                      (also in a low voice)
                     We'll get his own car
                     to take him to airport.
                     The keys are in your pocket.


                              PSPICK
                     Stand up,crying lawyer!
                     Now is your turn.
                     To be safe and free.


             Jacobsson nodes  and  starts  his  way  to exit.The
       "hellish" suitcase is still standing on the floor.


                              TASIAN
                     Don't forget  about  the money.
                     Without money nobody will need you
                     at the edge of the world.


             Jacobsson turnes on 180 degrees,automatically picks
       up  the suitcase and  goes  to the door.Pspick opens
       the door for him.Charlie's looking at the happening with
       big genuine interest.

                              TASIAN

                              RADIO-VOICE
                     This private house is a  strange
                     thing...really  strange.A  room
                     that is  looking like a prison cell.
                     We suspect that the killer
                     was sitting  here.For long time...
                     But who was he?An  innocent  victim
                     putten in chains or a bloody maniac
                     that now get free and may be knocking
                     at the door of your own house?
                     We will...


                      Tasian turns radio off.


                              TASIAN
                     I hate this fucking talks 'bout
                     maniacs!Shit...


                              PSPICK
                     What's up,man?


                              TASIAN
                     I wanna tell you something.
                     It was five years ago...


             INT-MORGUE


             Corpse of a man on the table.Two bullet wounds.
       In breast.And in head.An anathom walking around the table.


             (O.S.)           VOICE OF TASIAN
                     ...he was a kind of a walking terror
                     of our god damned city.
                     They called him Twice.Cause everytime
                     he used two bullets for each victim.
                     Hell knows why.
                     There was an unknown call.Who was calling
                     and where from...nobody knows.May be Twice
                     himself wanted to meet with death
                     face to face...

                                                              37








             INT-POLICE-STATION


             Officer-on-Duty is on line,caring the phone receiver
       and writing information on paper.


             (O.S.)           VOICE OF TASIAN
                     ...so,we've got the information that
                     this fucking Twice-maniac is hiding
                     at the hatter's ware house,situated
                     somewhere in the middle of West street.


             EXT-POLICE CAR.


             Tasian,patrolman #1,patrolman #2 and patrolman #3
       are inside.Car is running to the West street.And then
       stops near the warehouse.And a heavy rain starts to fall.


             (O.S.)           VOICE OF TASIAN
                     I remember it was a rain of cats
                     and dogs,when we were on the point.
                     Fuck...no!There was no rain that day!


             EXT-NEAR ENTRANCE TO THE WAREHOUSE.


             Rain still's falling down.Patrolmen are getting
       from the car.Each of them is carring revolver
       in one hand and an opened umbrella in another.


             Suddenly the rain stops.Sun starts to shine.
       Patrolman looks  at  the sky,then looks at Tasian
       in some angry way,closes their umbrellas and puts it
       back to the car.



                                                              38




             Tasian just shrugs one's shoulders and prepares
       a heavy bunch of keys to open the warehouse door,but he's
       late.Patrolman #1 breaks the door from the run and enters
       in a very noisy way.All the others follows him.


             INT-WAREHOUSE

             Not far from the door a small receiver is standing
       on the floor.Playing jazz.Very loud.Tasian wants
       to turn it off,but patrolman #2 stops him and shakes
       his head.They starts to move deeper into warehouse space
       and leaves receiver with it loud jazz behind.


             (O.S.)           VOICE OF TASIAN
                     I wanted to turn off this fucking
                     music but they didn't let me do it.
                     So jazz was screaming all the time
                     we were there...stamping one's foot
                     and searching for suspected killer.
                     And this music was making us
                     more nervous.


             All guys of the cop-company are deep in their
       searches.Warehouse is a rather big hall with many open
       bookcases on which are sitiuated hats.Different colour.
       And different size.They are situated without any boxes.
       It looks like an exhibition of hats,not like
       a buisness-practise warehouse keeping it's wares from
       dirt and dust.


             (O.S.)           VOICE OF TASIAN
                     There was a lot different hats in that
                     god damned place...hats,hats and hats!
                     Everywhere...Such and such.
                     Any kind you need,any kind you want.
                     Really a sick quantity of hats!
                     From that time I can't look at hats
                     without a shudder.

                     We were hanging around,searching for
                     the Twice-maniac for a long time.
                     But there were only this fucking hats.

                                                              39


                                 continue
             (O.S.)           VOICE OF TASIAN
                     And nothing more.We were about to go back
                     from that place and all came to one point,
                     but suddenly...


             The bookcases with hats are standing in such way,
       that they forms a kind of a labyrinth and in the end all
       cops comes to one point.Tasian comes the last.And nearby
       that point,betweem two bookcases overfulled by hats is
       sitting a little puny man with defenceless smile on his
       lips.He is sitting directly on the concrete floor,not far
       from the wall,in the end of this "hats" labyrinth.


             (O.S.)           VOICE OF TASIAN
                     We just haven't signed him first time.
                     He even doesn't look as our suspected
                     target.He waited for a while and then
                     even not changing expression of face,
                     even with smile on his lips,he began
                     to shoot...
                     Before we've got what's going on.


             Twice-maniac starts to shoot.Patrolman #3 gets
       two bullets:into forehead and into throat.And falls down.
       Patrolman #1 gets another couple.Right eye and left
       shoulder.Patrolman #2 gets a wound  in right leg and
       falls  down.And six and the last bullet shot a hat
       at his back.He looses his gun in time of falling and
       can't get it because of wounded leg.Tasian is the only
       one and last.Safe and sound.With his gun ready.Aiming
       at the killer.Meanwhile,Twice drops his empty gun.
       Still sitting on the floor and smiling.He stares at
       Tasian in a strange way.


             (O.S.)           VOICE OF TASIAN
                     When I looked at his eyes,I've got
                     a kind of shock.It was an unhuman gaze.
                     I was like devil himself used fucking
                     eyes of that man just to look at me.
                     I was ready to shoot him down,but just
                     can't move at all.I felt a kind of fear
                     I never felt before...


                                                              40





             Patrolman #2 turns himself over.Seen all
       the happening.


                              PATROLMAN #2
                     Shoot that son of a bitch!
                     What the fuck are you waiting for?!


                              TWICE
                     Ye!It's revolver time.It came!


             Tasian gives a start and pulles the trigger.
       Four shots.And maniac falls down dead,buried under
       an avalanche of hats jumping down at him from their points
       in bookcases.Silence falls down.Only patrolman #2 moans
       and somewhere far mad radio still throws it's jazz into
       outer space.


             Suddenly maniac's hand appears between the sea of
       fallen hats and threatens Tasian by a forefinger.Tasian
       shoots two times more.And hand dissapeares never
       to rise again.Tasian breaths in a quick and heavy way.

                  \ end  of Tasian's recollections \


             EXT-HIGWAY-LAWYER'S CAR.


                              TASIAN
                     Now you know why I don't like
                     all this radio-bullshit about
                     maniacs and so on.
                     It's not such pretty or such
                     interesting
                     as some assels thought...
                            (thinking)
                     In whole don't  worry,Freddy!
                     You know  Salfares will get
                     this fucking killer even from hell
                     in which he sent this assel from
                     radio.

                              PSPICK
                     Or we'll do it.


                              TASIAN
                     Or we'll do it,ye.
                     By the way,are you hungry?


                              PSPICK
                     Well...may be.


                              TASIAN
                     "Well...may be..."
                     I don't like such an answer
                     on such  a  serious question.
                     There are only two variants
                     of answer that I like.
                     Not hungry yet or hungry
                     like a beast.


                              PSPICK
                     Crrrr!Like a  beast!I  think
                     you wanna get me to Mother

                              TASIAN
                     You've got something
                     against the mexican cookery?


                              PSPICK
                     Not I.But my stomach.
                     May be'll go to some other place?


                              TASIAN

                     today.Come on,amigo!Drive straight
                     to Mother De Lana!

             INT-DAY.

             "Hot & Hotter dining" of MOTHER DE LANA.Pspick and
       Tasian just coming inside.An old mexican woman,Mother  De
       Lana nodes them friendly.


                              TASIAN
                     Good afternoon,Mother De Lana!
                     We are hungry like wolves!


                              MOTHER DE LANA
                     Wait a little,dear boys,
                     wait a little!
                     Mother  De Lana  will  never let
                     you die from hunger...
                     what you'd like today?


             Tasian is thinking for a while then began  to  talk
       in "spanish".


                              TASIAN
                     Una cervesa deportista...en  cortar
                     grosero un el agudo  sauce...
                     Inexplicable framar  un complot
                     salchichas...Elfresa compota...
                     Los salados en el peor corrompido
                     hombes.That's all,Mom!


                              MOTHER DE LANA
                     All right...wait a little
                     and everything be ready.
                     Take a sit.


             And cops goes to the table situated near
       an opposite wall.

                              PSPICK
                     Ken,I don't know spanish as well,
                     as you do,but something is telling
                     me,that this dinner will give me
                     a great heartburn.


                              TASIAN
                     Then wait on and prey...
                     that it will not be a smoked
                     crocodile under a chocolate sauce.


             Meanwhile Mother De Lana appears  with the food.


                              MOTHER DE LANA
                     Bon appetit,dear boys!


                              TASIAN & PSPICK
                              (in one voice)
                     Thanks a lot!


                   They starts their true mexican dinner.


                              PSPICK
                            (chewing)
                     Mmm...This meat is excellent.
                     But I kmow what is waiting
                     my stomuch in the nearest future...


             Pspick suddenly  stops  his  dining  proccess.He is
       sitting,as he can see the front door and can see everyone
       who's coming in or goes out.Tasian is sitting back to the
       door and can see nothing.Four big mighty guys are  coming
       in.They are looking such as they are searching for someone
       to give him a good kick.


                              PSPICK
                     Ken,I think you've got
                     some problems.



                                                              44




                              TASIAN
                     Thas a fly in my coffee?


                              PSPICK
                     Forget about your coffee.Look back!


             Tasian turns back.Looks.His face changes.


                              TASIAN
                     Oh,shit!


             Meanwhile three guys of four,began to read menu and
       to talk  with  Mother  De  Lana and a young mexican wait-
       ress.The forth guy who's nickname is DaddyTiger nodes  to
       Tasian and goes to the toilet.


                              PSPICK
                     Just look at his face!I think
                     DaddyTiger brought  you  a  serious
                     and upleasant news.I felt something
                     bad about visiting this place...


                              TASIAN
                     Freddy,you're full of superstions.
                     Like an old english lady!


                              PSPICK
                     All right,man.All  right!
                     I accompinied the lawyer.Now is your
                     turn.Toilet is waiting for heroes!


             Tasian goes to the toilet with a very dark face.When
       he is   coming  in,DaddyTiger  is  getting  his  bladder
       "free",sniffing of pleasure during this process.

                              TASIAN
                     Listen,man,we've got a treaty
                     to use this room as a point
                     of communications...only for this.


                              DADDYTIGER
                     I need it man...to join the work
                     and a kind of pleasure,if you can
                     call it so.


                              TASIAN
                     Brought something serious,man?


             DaddyTiger finishes with his "pleasure" and
       starts to wash hands.


                              DADDYTIGER
                     Serious?Oh,ye!
                     Murder is  not  an  object
                     for some fucking jokes...even
                     for a humour as black as my skin.


                              TASIAN
                     Murder?Go on.Who was killed,
                     when and where?


                              DADDYTIGER
                     Too many questions for such
                     a little man as I am.I  don't know
                     who was killed,but it was a work of
                     a real fucking maniac.Corpses cutten
                     to little pieces.Not far from here.


             Tasian's face changes one more time.
       Also changes his voice.As he if he's very tired.


                              TASIAN
                     Wait a  minite!You  wanna say me
                     that somewhere nearby somebody was

                                                              46


                             continue
                              TASIAN
                     murdered in a very unpleasant way
                     and even cops doesn't know about it?


                              DADDYTIGER
                     Ye!You're the first.Cop number one.
                     And now you know.It was
                     at the neglected billiards
                     of Costello Bastindos.Know that
                     place?There are only that fucking
                     rats and   some   billiard   tables
                     with teared cloth...Cloth was taken
                     and the  tables  were too heavy
                     to be stolen.As I know this fucking
                     building is  ready  to  be pulled
                     down...it's place will be selled or
                     is just ready for selling.


                              TASIAN
                     Who wanna buy it?


                              DADDYTIGER
                     Hell knows!Ask the guys from mafia.
                     It's their fucking buisness.They
                     ordered to clean and wash the place
                     and said to keep silence for
                     everybody who  seen or heard
                     something...as no fuck has taken
                     place.No corpses-no  case.
                     Who wanna to get troubles with cops
                     for a false call?


                              TASIAN
                     You're the one who seen?


                              DADDYTIGER
                     I'm the one who heard...and you,too.
                     If you mean was I inside,enjoying
                     the look at corpses-no!I wasn't.
                     What for?I've got enough fucking
                     troubles in my life...and as I said,
                     now there are no corpses,

                               continue
                              DADDYTIGER
                     no traces...all is fucking clean.
                     They washed it all yesterday.
                     But the  who  seen  said  it  was
                     a real good show...fucking
                     maniac work!


                              TASIAN
                     And WHO seen?Can you tell?


                              DADDYTIGER
                     Sorry,man.I can't.They  are kids
                     and they are hiding.You'll waste
                     you time  trying  to  find  them
                     and they'll tell  you the  same
                     thing...Better try to find this
                     Jack the Ripper or John...
                     the Head-Cutter and cut his own
                     fucking balls.If  I'll  get
                     something more I'll tell...
                     I must go now...See you!


                              TASIAN
                     Thanks,man.
                             (thinking)
                     Thanks a lot...

             DaddyTiger leaves.Tasian is standing and thinking.
       He openes cold water.Then closes.Openes hot water and
       starts to wash his hands.Mechanically.Until he feels
       the pain from boiling hot water and screams.


             EXT-DAY-STREET

             The building   of  billiards  of  Costello  Bastin-
       dos.Street is empty.Pspick and Tasian are  coming  up  to
       the building.Tasian gets a pocket light.


                              TASIAN
                     It's here.



                                                              48




                              PSPICK
                     Ye...this damned billiard is here...
                     Damned mexican sauce!


                              TASIAN
                     Got a heartburn?


             Pspick nodes sadly.Detectives are  looking  at  the
       building.Building is  old  and  looks  bad.Most  of  win-
       dow-glasses are broken.Detectives goes to the front  door
       and suddenly a black cat crosses their way.Pspick stops.


                              PSPICK
                     Shit!It's a bad sign...


                              TASIAN
          (trying to joke,but his voice is too cool for jokes)
                     Freddy-boy,superstitions are just
                     superstitions...and nothing more.
                     This funny black pussy-cat is not
                     dangerous.I've seen  that  early
                     in the morning a big white mouse
                     crossed it's  own  way...the way
                     of this fucking cat  and  all
                     the danger's  gone...flown  away.
                     Gone with the wind!
                     Cat is out of game.


             Pspick smiles and keeps on moving.Tasian is looking
       at the front door.At it's lock.


                              PSPICK
                     Can you open it?


                              TASIAN
                     I can open any lock...except
                     a war...lock.



                                                              49




                              PSPICK
                     I hope there are no warlocks or
                     sorcerers near by.


             Tasian stretches  left hand to the door,but it ope-
       nes before he touched it.


                              TASIAN
                     Unlocked...
                     Welcome to kingdom of darkness!
                     I'll be your gide...


             Tasian switches  his electric pocket light and they
       are coming inside.There are only twilight  and  emptyness
       inside.Old and  dirty billiards.Broken glass on the floor
       and rats moving here and there.


                              TASIAN
                     Your own  famous  black pussy-cat
                     can get a lot of fresh meat here...
                     if it doesn't like WISKAS...Ye...
                     Not a bad place for  murders.


             Near the entrance is sitiuated a little room,and  a
       bar near   it.There   are  three  empty  bottles.Old  and
       dust.Bar's counter is rather high and one billiard table
       is hidden  by  it.Even the corner in which it is situated
       staying in the shadow.And in the center of  hall  thas  a
       broken window  and  the daylight is putting the corner to
       shadow more.Smth black is lying on  that  billiard  table
       but detectives  haven't sign it,their attention is coming
       to the other six billiards.Tasian is moving by an  elect-
       ric light  but  haven't  seen nothing interesting.All the
       same:broken glass,stiring rats and dust everywhere.


                              TASIAN
                     If there  was something interesting,
                     now it's  gone...mafia  destroyed
                     all the  fucking  tracks.If  there
                     was something,yet.

                                                              50






                              PSPICK
                     It was  easy...wash  all down and
                     put on  the  dust  and  glass and
                     a fuck you can find!I think that
                     the dogs  or the guys from FBI can
                     find there something...not I.


                              TASIAN
                     May be...may be.I'm sure only in
                     one thing:it's a good place  for
                     a slaughter-house.


             He lights  left  and suddenly sees some puddle of a
       dark liquid.


                              TASIAN
                     Shit!It's blood!Fresh blood!


             As he's  saying  it,they hears a moan from the left
       dark corner.Tasian puts the light on it and  Pspick  gets
       his revolver  ready.The light shows them a man lying on a
       billiard,pined to it by several knives.Man is  moaning.At
       the next  moment  they sees the dark figure standing near
       the bar with a knife  in  it's  hand.Pspick  screams  and
       shots two  times.Figure  throws  a knife and quickly
       escapes.Pspick falls down.Maniac's knife is stretching
       from the center of his stomach.Tasian gets to him.


                              TASIAN
                     Hold on,man!Hold on!


                              PSPICK
                             (weakly)
                     Get 'is'on of a 'itch...Get'im!
                     Fuck...'nife out 'nd 'eartburn
                     'nside.



                                                              51




             Tasian with revolver runs  out,but  the  street  is
       empty.Killer is gone.Tasian quickly jumps into police-car
       and takes the radio.


                              TASIAN
                     Here is the car 22!I need help...
                     two men are seriously wounded.


             SAME PLACE.SOME TIME LATER.

             Two  embulance cars getsaway Pspick and the man
       from a  billiard  table.Experts  with dogs are
       searching inside and around.Tasian is  talking  with
       lietenant SALFARES.


                              SALFARES
                     So this motherfucker's gone...
                     And where he's gone?


                              TASIAN
                     I wish to know.Frankly I had no time
                     for a good search.I called help and
                     ran back  to  billiards...I thought
                     he can easily get inside by a back
                     door or by his own fucking way and
                     finish them both.


                              SALFARES
                     You're a  wise  man,Ken.That's  OK.
                     Have you seen the face...
                     of this bastard?


                              TASIAN
                     No,sir.He was too quick.


                              SALFARES
                     Too quick to be dead?
                     Al right!If mafia wanna play
                     with us,we'll also play.

                              continue
                              SALFARES
                     But by our own rulls.
                     And at last we'll see who'll
                     be the fool...
                     If you wanna kick some ass
                     from the klan,do it!
                     Without any fucking doubt.
                     Do everything you want.
                     I'll get all the responsibility.
                           (after a pause)
                     Hope that Freddy will be OK.
                     So,began to work,son.


                            Tasian nodes.


                              TASIAN
                     Sir,I'll do the best I can.


             EXT-STREET-"SCAFFANDRA ROMANA" CLUB.

             Two mighty guards from mafia are standing near ent-
       rance.Tasian is coming closely to them.


                              GUARD #1
                     Sir,show your membership card,
                     please.


                              TASIAN
                     My membership card?Oh,ye!Sure...


           He gets his police badge and shows it to the guards.


                              TASIAN

                              TASIAN
                     May be better...I'll beat your face
                     ...but I don't wanna to get it dust.


                              GUARD #1
                     Afraid to beat me,cop?Say it!
                     You're afraid?You're afraid that I
                     can give you a good kick?


                              TASIAN
                     I'm not afraid of such an assel,
                     like you...I'm on duty now...And
                     I never fight when I'm on duty.


                              GUARD #1
                     Really?And how much longer
                     will long your fucking duty?


                    Tasian looks at his own watches.


                              TASIAN
                     For two seconds...one...two!


             And Tasian  cuffs  him  from  right,then  from  the
       left.Second cuff is hard.Guard #1 falls down,his  partner
       starts to move,but Tasian puts revolver on him and he im-
       mideately steps back.Meanwhile Tasian takes a sit
       on the lying guard #1 and put the revolver straight
       to his nose.


                              TASIAN
                     You feel  comfortable?I'm  asking:
                     do you feel comfortable,assel?
                     Never try to cad me...I don't like
                     someone trying to cad  me.I  don't
                     like violence...but  if I'm saying
                     I wanna enter,better let me in...
                     without any fucking questions.

                              GUARD #1
                     And have you an order for it,cop?


                              TASIAN
                     You're really a funny  guy.Lying
                     on asphalt as if it's normal.
                     Smelling the barrel of my revolver.
                     And even have an impudence
                     to ask  me,if I have an order!
                     All right,assel.I'm kind today.
                     Can tell you  confidentially:I have
                     no order.I came here just  because
                     your fucking boss invited me
                     to visit this fucking club.


             Guard #1 smiles in an ironical way and Tasian bangs
       him to the face.


                              TASIAN
                     Don't smile,assel!You think I'm
                     kidding about the  invitation?
                     I'm not kidding.He invited me
                     10 years  ago...I was too busy
                     to come in time,but today I've
                     got a free hour.Ye...late,but
                     he'll not be angry.He'll be glad
                     to see me.And you continue to enjoy
                     life...it's too short.


             Tasian stands up slowly and moves to the door.


             INT-CLUB ISIDE

             Personal cabinet  of the official club owner MARKEO
       TOLSTINNI.Thas a battle picture on the wall  showing  the
       ancient roman  warriors  fighting  with more ancient ger-
       mans.Thas a metal bust of July Ceasar in a corner of  ca-
       binet.A heavy press-paper of godness Femida \BLIND JUSTI-
       CE\ is standing on the table.Markeo Tolstinni himself  is

                                                              55



                              continue
       sitting comfortably  in a giant arm-chair good enough for
       his body size.Tolstinni is reading "THE DIARY OF JULY CE-
       ASAR".Drinking Martini  from  a glass.And a big bottle of
       Dry Martini is standing beside him.


             Suddenly cabinet's door flows  down  inside  with  a
       great thunder.The plaster is falling up and down,flowing in
       the air,creating a kind of a frog.And Tasian appears from
       this frog  like  a  ghost.Tolstinni  drops  the  book and
       spills Martini on his own  trousers.Jumps  in  his  giant
       arm-chair,throws the  empty  glass  away.Leaning upon the
       table by left hand,while right hand is  searching  for  a
       gun inside  of  a table-box.But Tasian is quicker.He gets
       the heavy  press-paper   and   beats   Tolstinni's   left
       hand.Tolstinni screams of pain and drops the gun from his
       right hand back to  the  table-box.Tasian  beats  him  by
       BLIND JUSTICE on the right hand and then puts press-paper
       to it's place on the table.Tolstinni is still crying  and
       blowing on both hands.Tasian gets him unfriendly and puts
       into another arm-chair,little and very uncomfortable.It's
       not big  enough  for  such a Tolstinni.His face and hands
       getting the red colour.


                              TASIAN
                     Ye!This brilliant moment came!
                     The Justice was waiting so long,but
                     now it beated your hands dusted
                     by different crimes...I came here
                     as a friend...I came in peace and
                     you wanna  get  a  gun...What's up
                     with you,friend Markeo?
                     Are you insane?


                              TOLSTINNI
                     Tasian,what the hell are you doing?
                     Oh...my poor little hands!


             Tasian finds Tolstinni's squash hat and kicks it
     with deep and real hate.Hat flows out threw the window.
     Tasian pickes up the book.It's name greatly impresses him.



                                                              56




                              TASIAN
                     The diary of July Ceasar...
                     Ave Ceasar!You'd better have to read
                     the biography of Mussolini.You've
                     got some resemblance with him.
                     In face and manners.


                  (O.S.)  Noise from the corridor.

           Tasian gets his revolver.The club guards are coming.


                              TASIAN
                     Gentlemen,if some one will try
                     to enter I'll shot him
                     to the ground in the name
                     of Irish Republican Army.


                              GUARD #1
                     Boss,are you OK?


                              TOLSTINNI
                     Ye!I'm OK!Better then else!
                     Everything's pretty...Scram out!


                              TASIAN
                     Ye...we are talking about  serious
                     literature.Don't disturb us,please.


                         Guards slowly goes away.


                              TASIAN
                     So,my dear friend,I wanna warn you
                     that I'm only the first spring bird
                     ...tomorrow will  be  a lot of cops
                     ...a lot of to turn over your shitty
                     club,all your snake pit,
                     with great pleasure,understand?

                              TOLSTINNI
                     Buttt...wha...what's the problem?


                              TASIAN
                     Ye.There's really a problem.
                     I'm interesting about the little
                     massacre that has taken place at
                     the billiards of Costello Bastindos.
                     I wanna know where are the corpses
                     and why your assels washed
                     everything cleanly  in  secret,
                     as nothing  happened.Somewhere near
                     is walking  Jack the Ripper with
                     a pretty hatchet and you're sitting
                     here and  representing  Rome
                     at time of Decadance!
                     Wanna me  get  you  by the scruff
                     of the neck and beat all your shit
                     out threw your fucking ears?!


                              TOLSTINNI
                     It's Kozlinetti who gave the order.
                     He said me to sent the people
                     to get all the shit out of billiards
                     and wash   everything.Tasian,I'm
                     an old little man...
                     I never ask questions,when I'm
                     getting an order!


                              TASIAN
                     You even haven't asked your fellows
                     what they've seen there?


                              TOLSTINNI
                     No...I'm not curoius in things
                     of such a kind!


                              TASIAN
                     You sent your own guards?

                              TOLSTINNI
                     No,no!My boys always stays in
                     club,no other  job...I've ordered
                     to do this...guys of Luciano
                     Borbikineo.
                     He's got a petrol-station at
                     the border of northern suburbs.


                              TASIAN
                     You wanna sell the billiards
                     buildung?Whom?


                              TOLSTINNI
                     Some company...I  just don't know.
                     Kozlinetti wanted to say it after
                     returning back.May be already sold it.


                              TASIAN
                     And where he came to?


                              TOLSTINNI
                     Cop,you're kidding?He is the boss.
                     How do I know?He said he's getting
                     out of the city for a week or two.


                     Tasian smiles in an evil way.


                              TASIAN
                     Thanks a lot!By the way:
                     pay your attention to own trousers.
                     Martini's dry,but you are not.
                     Use Pampers.


                  Tolstinni looks at his wet trousers.


                              TOLSTINNI
                     Oh,fucking shit!

                         Tasian in the corridor.


                              TASIAN
                             (mutters)
                     Now we've got a little oil war!


             EXT-NORTH CITY SUBURBS-PETROL-STATION.


             Tasian stops  the  car  not far from it,but not too
       close.And starts to steal up to petrol-station.It looks
       empty.No cars,no stuff.No life at all.Tasian stands beside
       of one of the filling-station's boxes and keeps  on
       looking the  curious empty surroundings.


             At that moment a bigman BALTASAR gets out
       of the station with a two-barrel shot-gun ready.Coming to
       Tasian,trying to be unnoisy,but his steps sounds too heavy.
       Tasian hears him,but doesn't make a hard moves,just puts
       his  hand on revolver.And starts to show that he is
       diligently smell the filling-station  box.Two seconds later
       Baltasar  puts barrels of his short gun to Tasian's
       right ear.


                              BALTASAR
                     What the fuck are you doing here?


                              TASIAN
                     Hush!Hush,old man!Don't disturb me
                     with your silly questions!


                              BALTASAR
                     Hey!You are the one one of this
                     fucking sick toxico-men?


                              TASIAN
                     What the fuck are YOU talking about?
                     You just can't understand!I'm

                             continue
                              TASIAN
                     smelling and  trying  to fix what
                     kind of oil was use to made...
                     this petrol.Where does it came from?
                     If it's from IRAQ my car will not
                     work on  it.I  can't  put different
                     shit into the car-cistern.


            Baltasar is surprised.He smiles and little relaxes.


                              BALTASAR
                     And where is your such
                     an outstanding car?I can't see any
                     car near...by.


             Tasian turns  back  and shows by his hand somewhere
       into outer space.


                              TASIAN
                     Are you blind,old man?
                     It's standing there!


             Baltasar turns back,gets the trick,putting his
       weapon down.Tasian gets his own revolver quickly and puts
       it to Baltasar's belly.


                              TASIAN
                     Don't be a trigger-happy here!
                     May be this oil came from  IRAQ,
                     may be not,but it can easily blow up
                     if you gonna play a spagetti-western
                     here.Drop your gun...good  boy!
                     And tell me now where I  can  talk
                     with Luciano Borbikineo?


             Baltasar drops his gun an stands in a little shock.

                              BALTASAR
                     He's inside.If you told,you came
                     for buisness-talk...and you standing
                     here,talking bullshit and showing
                     yourself as a crazy lunatic...


                              TASIAN
                     Your shot-gun is not a well thing
                     for buisness-talk...
                     It's a very unfriendly thing!


                              BALTASAR
                     Some bastards wanted to blow up
                     the station  last  week.So  I'm
                     keeping eye on strangers.


                              TASIAN
                     How you even work here?
                     No cars...nobody.


                              BALTASAR
                     It's only today.Usially we've got
                     a lot of clients.By the way,man,who
                     sent you?Chinese or Tolstinni?


                              TASIAN
                     I'm acting in the name of brave
                     guerrillas of Greenland...move on!


             Baltasar stares at him as Tasian is insane,but tells
       him nothing at this point.They are  coming inside
       petrol-station office.Here is sitting LUCIANO.


                              TASIAN
                     No kidding and no jokes with guns!
                     I came here just to talk.


                              LUCIANO
                     I have only a nalefile.
                     But it's unloaded.Get down

                              continue
                              LUCIANO
                     to buisness...what you want from us?
                     If you want money you came to
                     a wrong place.


                              TASIAN
                     They said,that you and your guys
                     have done some work in one of
                     a very  famous  and rat-popular
                     billiards.I wanna know where is
                     the dust and how it was looked
                     when you came there at first time.


                  Baltasar and Luciano are getting pale.


                              BALTASAR
                     Not chinese and not Tolstinni...
                     you're just a damned cop!


                              TASIAN
                     Just a cop.Not damned yet...
                     Don't wanna talk with me?


                              LUCIANO
                     Look,man,it's nothing personal...
                     but the thing you're talking about
                     is not such interesting
                     as you think.


                              TASIAN
                     I've heard all about omerta...
                     have you heard about vendetta?


                              BALTASAR
                     What you mean?


                              TASIAN
                     I mean that that  fucking  butcher
                     seriously wounded  my  partner.

                                                              63


                             continue
                              TASIAN
                     That's what I mean...
                     And it's personal thing.I don't
                     think that this damned maniac
                     IS ONE OF THE FAMILY!
                     One of the KLAN!


                              LUCIANO
                     You're right.He's not...and omerta
                     doesn't goes so far.You wanna hear
                     what we  seen  at  the  billiards?OK
                     ...I'll tell you.Imagine two
                    human beings  cutten  into small
                    pieces and thrown on a floor like
                    parts of a broken puzzle.
                    Blood on  the  walls,on  the  tables,
                    on the floor...everywhere.And smell
                    of death.One more work of such a kind
                    and I'll lose all last respect
                    to my boss.


                              TASIAN
                    And what you've done with corpses...
                    or with what it was?


                              BALTASAR
                    Burned...if you need the ashes...


                              TASIAN
                    No I don't need it...Guys you know
                    what can  happen  to  you if
                    you were taken on the place  washing
                    the blood?A good chance of
                    a long prison.


                              BALTASAR
                    You mean that someone wanted
                    to frame us?





                                                              64


                              TASIAN
                    Hell knows.I still can't see
                    any chain beetween your boss and
                    this Jack The Ripper The Second.


                              BALTASAR
                    I hope there's no chain.It was
                    a psycho...fucking pcycho...
                    preparing for a cannibal lunch...


             Meanwhile outside  someone  picks up the two-barrel
       shot-gun of Baltasar.And slowly walks right to  the  door
       of petrol-station office.


             Inside.

                              LUCIANO
                     I've heard that...


             Door openes suddenly  and  appears  a  man  with  a
       shot-gun.He shots from both two barrels at Luciano.Lucia-
       no falls down will a savage  scream.He  is  dead.Killer
       steps back and closes the door.


             Balrasar gets to  the  wall  from left of the door,
       Tasian from the right.Baltasar gets a crow-bar from
       the  table.Tasian  is waiting with his revolver ready.


                              BALTASAR
                           (desparately)
                     What a bastard!Luchi's dead...
                     ...listen,there were only
                     two catrieges in my fucking gun!
                     Only two...I'll break his head
                     with this thing!


             Baltasar with a crow-bar in his hands moves
       to the door.




                                                              65



                              TASIAN
                     Wait!
                     May be he've got something else.


                              BALTASAR
                     Go to hell!
                     Everything he need is just a little
                     fire and  we'll  fly  up to heaven.
                     Fuck your waiting!I'm coming out!


             Baltasar openes the door,pumping it by leg,gets out,
       he turns left and  gets  a  wrong direction.Killer steps
       him from his back and  cuts his throat by knife from
       ear to ear.The crow-bar falls down on asphalt.In agony
       Baltasar turns to the killer and he is greatly surprised.


                              BALTASAR
                             (hoarsely)
                     Don Romeo?!R-rom...


             Baltasar falls down,chokes with his own blood.
       And now we can see  the  killers face.This  is  the face
       of Kozlinetti.Tasian hearing the noise,runs out and finds
       himself face to  face  with  Kozlinetti.Tasian also
       is surprised.Kozlinetti's face changes into
       an evil mask of madness.


                              TASIAN
                     Don't try to move!
                     You're under arrest,assel!


             Kozlinetti looks  threw him.Drops the hatchet.
       His face changes second time.Now it's calm.
       Then turns back.And Tasian is watching him going away.
       Slowly.Without any hurry.


                              TASIAN
                     I said stop!I'll shot you
                     to the ground,motherfucker!


                                                              66




             No reaction.Kozlinetti is still walking away.Tasian
       puts revolver down,aming at maniac's leg.But  the  bullet
       is out  of  target.Suddenly  Tasian  hears a noise on his
       back,turns around.The petrol-station is on fire.


                              TASIAN
                     Real pretty funny day...


             He is  running  away from the station and trying to
       get Kozlinetti by the run,but the petrol-station  blows
       and  Tasian is falling down and fainting fit.


             Sometime later.Ruins of petrol-station are still on
       fire.Tasian is sitting on the  ground.Face  is  black  of
       smoke,dress is in dust.Tasian touches head.


                              TASIAN
                     Fuck!He's gone...How  he get free
                     from the prison-hospital?


            Tasian stands on his feet and slowly walks to his own
       car.Trying to put on the radio,but it's cutten and broken
       as well as possible.


                              TASIAN
                     Shit!


             INT-PRISON HOSPITAL.


             Kozlinetti is lying on a bed with a sad face,signed
       by chinese fists.Tasian is coming with a bad smile on his
       lips.


                              TASIAN
                     Sorry,that haven't got flowers...



                                                              67




             Kozlinetti stares  at  him in the evil way and ans-
       wers nothing.


                              TASIAN
                     You look very bad...
                     Getting kung fu lessons last night?


                              KOZLINETTI
                     Fuck you!


                              TASIAN
                     Never tease an evil cop!
                     Never...assel!You just  lying  here
                     and have no idea why I came in?


                              KOZLINETTI
                     I see you came in,but I wich you
                     to fuck off!


                              TASIAN
                     I just came to see your evil
                     fucking smile one more time...


               Kozlineti stares at him with some curiosity.


                              TASIAN
                     ...same smile after you shot first
                     and cut the second...your  fucking
                     smile before you blown up Luciano's
                     petrol-station.The same smile that
                     you had, pining  a  man
                     to a billiard with knives.It was
                     too dark there,but I know that you
                     smiled,enjoying the pain  of  your
                     victim. So,assel!
                     Such a Good Friday Face!Wanna say
                     something?



                                                              68




             Kozlinetti is getting pale.He starts to scream.


                              KOZLINETTI
                     What he fuck are you talking about?
                     What knives?What petrol-station?
                     What the fuck?!


                              TASIAN
                     You know what the fuck.
                     You know it well.I saw you and
                     the guy  you pined to the table...
                     ...he's still alive.I showed  him
                     your photo.He said-Ye!It's him!...
                     Frankly I'm interested only
                     in one  thing:why  you  came back?
                     Why you're here now?Trying to make
                     an alibi yourself?Ha!


                              KOZLINETTI
                     I don't know what the fuck's
                     going on!As  I  see you wanna put
                     some murders on me...but I can
                     tell you  this...I  can  tell you
                     this,motherfucker:I'm staying here
                     from the night!I can't even move!
                     This damned chinese!They broken me
                     three ribs!And dislocated leg...


                              TASIAN
                     My congratulatins!But this bullshit
                     doesn't impress me,assel!This is
                     the only fucking fact:it was your's
                     face walking around the street and
                     killing people in different way with
                     a mad  fucking  smile.I just can't
                     imagine that a face can move
                     separately of  it's  owner.I think
                     you were there both,you and your
                     fucking face.

                              KOZLINETTI
                     It wasn't me!


                              TASIAN
                     Sure!You're framed  as
                     a Roger Rabbit!But everything
                     that happened doesn't look like
                     a Roger Rabbit...it's another movie
                     and it's  not far from
                     TEXAS CHAINSAW MASSACRE!Or you used
                     a hatchet,a good old hatchet?


             Kozlinetti looses  all  control on himself,tries to
       stand up,moanes of pain and sreams.


                              KOZLINETTI
                     IT WASN'T ME!I SWARE!

                     I haven't got a Holy  Bible  now...
                     And all your oaths costs nothing...


                              KOZLINETTI
                     I know  who done it!
                     My damned brother...
                     My crazy twin-brother...


             Tasian begins to walk from one corner to another,
       keeping eye on Kozlinetti.


                              TASIAN
                     Oh,ye!A terrible  mystery  of  your
                     fucking family...Crazy brother-twin
                     sitting in  a  cup-board and suddenly
                     gets free!A real gothic novel...
                     Stop fucking my brains,assel.
                     I know that your dear brother is dead.

                              KOZLINETTI
                     He is  alive...He  was  putten  into
                     a private house under  guards...
                     On St.Bartolomeo avenue...


             Tasian steps closer to Kozlinetti's bed.


                              TASIAN
                     And when you saw him last time?


                              KOZLINETTI
                     Five years ago...I don't remember!
                     You doesn't believe me,ye?Fuck!
                     Put your fucking cops right here,
                     in this room!And when he'll kill
                     once more you'll see that it's not
                     my deeds!


                              TASIAN
                     I suspected something like that...
                     but I wanted to hear it from you.
                     There was  a  double murder
                     on St.Bartolomeo avenue...lately.
                     He get free.


                              KOZLINETTI
                     Fuck!There's another thing,cop!
                     I wanna now where is my lawyer?!
                     What you've done with Jacobsson?


                              TASIAN
                     Jacob-sson?Never heard of any of them.
                     By the way,an ill man needs a doctor
                     not a lawyer...
                     and there is a  lot of doctors.
                     I hope they'll find something
                     Like Black Death or Anthrax...
                     You deserved such a thing...
                     Have a good time,assel!



                                                              71




             INT-CENTRAL CITY POLICE-OFFICE.DAY.


             Tasian slowly walks down the corridor,searching for
       something.Pulls at door-knob.But the door is closed.
       He steps to another,pulls it's door-knob.Unlocked.He openes
       the door and looks inside.There's only darkness inside.
       Just two rows of tables with turned off computers on it.
       And no human beings around.


                              TASIAN
                     Anybody home?Fuck...
                     Idler loafers!


             Steps back to the corridor and shuts the door.Coming
       to another room.There's light.Also two rows of computer
       tables,most of them free.Only two monitors working.A pop-eye
       youngster is working on the first and second is occupied by
       Lisa.Lisa is not such busy as pop-eye youngster,she signes
       Tasian.


                              LISA
                     High,Ken!Finally came to get well virtual
                     education?Right in time.
                     A lot of place today.
                     Take any seat you'd like.


                              TASIAN
                     Lisa,you know I hate this thinking metal
                     monsters...but now I need information.
                     Can you help me?


                              LISA
                     Sorry,Ken.Help yourself and learn
                     some easy operations...


             Tasian gaves her an entreat  gaze.She laughes.




                                                              72



                              LISA
                     Sorry,Ken...I'm really busy now.
                     If you need help right now,better
                     ask Ofigelos.He's all the same
                     doing bullshit.Playing a fool.


                              TASIAN
                     Playing a fool?


                              LISA
                     Come and see!...
                     By the way,how is our dear Romeo?


                              TASIAN
                     As normal as possible.Missing him?


                              LISA
                     I don't think so.I can't say that
                     he was excellent in the bed...


             Hearing that POP-EYE YOUNGSTER turnes back and looses
       control with his program.When he put his pop-eyes back to
       the monitor,he signes something wrong.


                              POP-EYE YOUNGSTER
                     Oh,hell!Not that!Not that!


                              LISA
                           (continues)
                     ...well.He looked well and snored
                     very loud.That all I've got from
                     that night,cause he was very drunk.
                     The only satisfaction was the feeling
                     of the thing I done I done for my
                     country...but sometime it's not enough,
                     specially for a lone woman.


             Lisa looks at Tasian with a tempting smile.


                                                              73





                              LISA
                     May be you can do something for me...


                              TASIAN
                         (imitates Lisa's intonations)
                     I'm too busy now.If you need help right
                     now,better ask Ofigelos.


             Lisa starts to laugh.Pop-eyed youngster looks at
       the funny couple in an angry way.


                              POP-EYE YOUNGSTER
                     Hey!Hey!Someone is trying to work...


                              LISA
                     Ok...work on.See you,Ken!


             Tasian comes to the adjacent-room  door,as he is
       coming closer he starts to hear very strange sounds.
       Shots,blows,roaring.Tasian gets greatly surprised.


                              TASIAN
                     What a jungle sounds!What's going on?


                              LISA
                     Somethin' terrible 's going on.
                     Afraid to enter,hero?


                              TASIAN
                     Not afraid,just surprised...


             Tasian openes the door.Now shots and roaring
       are louder.As loud as possible.And now everything is clean.
       LUIS OFIGELOS is sitting and playing  a computer game
       DOOM II:HELL ON EARTH ( ID SOFTWARE ).Savage sounds from
       the speakers beats all the space of room,as a battle takes

                                                              74



                              continue
       place here.Ofigelos is deep in the game.He doesn't here
       or see anything around.Including Tasian.Luis is using
       a mouse and a keyboard in his holy war with terrible aliens.
       His eyes are red,partly inflamed,slightly mad.


             Tasian closes the door and comes to Ofigelos.


             Ofigelos cuts two ZOMBIE-MEN with a chainsaw.
       Then eliminates a dozen of IMPS by a machine-gun.His last
       victim is a giant spider,SPIDER MASTERMIND.He puts
       the "pause" on, stops the game and in silence screames,
       getting high.


                              OFIGELOS
                     I've got you!Finally I've got you,
                     son of a bitch!Ho-ho!Carramba!
                     Damned spider...


             Tasian insinuaty coughs at his back.Ofigelos jumps
       in his chair frightened.Slowly turns back.Finds out that
       it's only Tasian and sighes in easy way.


                              OFIGELOS
                     Thanks God!It's you,amigo...


                              TASIAN
                     And whom you expected?One of this ugly
                     cricious from your silly game?


                              OFIGELOS
                     There are some beings more dangerous
                     and terrible then they...


             Ofigelos starts to rub his inflamed eyes.





                                                              75


                              OFIGELOS
                     More dangerous...Lietenant...
                     Lietenant Salfares.If he'll see
                     what I'm doing here he'll made
                     a virtual beefsteak of me.


                              TASIAN
                     And he'll be absolutely right.
                     Why you playing a fool?
                     You're not a child,Luis!


                              OFIGELOS
                     Not a child?What are you talking
                     about?Child...
                     It's the game for real men!
                     Just try!Come on!Take a sit!
                     It's not an easy thing!
                     There's a lot of tricks you must
                     use on 8-th level,if you want
                     to survive...


             Ofigelos stretches left hand to the mouse and suddenly
       screams of pain and starts to massage left shoulder by right
       hand.

                              TASIAN
                     Aliens wounded you.
                     Wounded seriously.
                     You lost not only brain,but
                     a shoulder,too.


                              OFIGELOS
                     Can't move a hand...Fuck!
                     It's not so funny,amigo...


                              TASIAN
                     Let me do it!


             He starts a hard massage and Luis moans of pain.




                                                              76



                              OFIGELOS
                     Aughhh!Easy,amigo!You wanna kill me?


                              TASIAN
                     I'm doing a virtual beefsteak of you
                     In a kind of Salfares cookery.
                     Haven't you've got nightmares after
                     such a monitor-hunting?


                              OFIGELOS
                     Sometimes...Enough,amigo...I'm well now.


             Tasian stops "the virtual beefsteaking".


                              OFIGELOS
                     But it's a great game!
                     Getting such high!It's more easy
                     to play a team...by modem.
                     Yesterday I and two guys from
                     Forth Department came in together
                     and gave to this creatures everything
                     they deserved.Or thas another way:
                     to hunt each other in no monsters mode.
                     It calles DEATHMATCH!Or...


                              TASIAN
                     Listen,virtual fanatic...I see,
                     you are insane,but may be you'd
                     get back to your straight work.


             Ofigelos stratches a hand into the air.
       And starts to smell the air.Gets down on his knees,creeps
       under the table to the wall,looks at the electric saurce.


                              OFIGELOS
                     Nothing...Nothing hot.
                     No smoke.It's normal.


             He creeps out and gets back on his feet.

                                                              77





                              TASIAN
                     What's wrong?


                              OFIGELOS
                     I smells something's burning...
                     thought it's electricity.


                              TASIAN
                     It's not electricity.
                     It's me.


                              OFIGELOS
                     Really?What happened with you?


                              TASIAN
                     It's a long story.Hanging 'round
                     of a burning petrol-station.
                     Come on!Turn off your play
                     and let's work a little!


             Luis Ofigelos takes his sit.


                              OFIGELOS
                     As you say,amigo...But before I save it.


             Notice at the left high corner of the monitor:
                             "GAME SAVED"

             Fingers of Ofigelos continues to move on a keyboard
       and soon another notice jumps out:
               "ARE YOU SURE YOU WANT TO QUIT
                    WITH THIS GREAT GAME?

                        YES       NO"


             Ofigelos sadly sighes.


                                                              78



                              OFIGELOS
                     Of course "NO!"...but what can I do?


             The game dissapeares.Ofigelos is back
       to DOS Shell.


                              OFIGELOS
                     So,amigo,what you wanna know?


                              TASIAN

             INT-BARZICK'S CLINIC.PROFESSOR'S CABINET.


             A fat sad PSYCHO is sitting on a chair.Fasten to it
       by a rope.He only can move his head.It's the only one free
       part of him.Near the psycho is sitting very thin professor
       BARZICK.With a spoon in one hand and a plate full
       of porridge  in the other.He is trying to put a spoon with
       porridge inside of psycho's mouth,but it's not easy.Madman
       is shaking his head escaping from porridge.
       Professor is tired.

                              BARZICK
                     What's the problem with you today?
                     You aren't hungry?


                              PSYCHO
                     Am I hungry or not is my buisness.
                     I'll never swallow any part of
                     this poison.


                              BARZICK
                     It's not poisonous.Look!


             Barzick takes the spoon and tastes the porridge.


                              BARZICK
                     It's excellent!Just taste.


                              PSYCHO
                     I prefer to live longer.


                              BARZICK
                     You think I can poison myself?


                              PSYCHO
                     Of course not!
                     You swallowed some anti-poison drug
                     or something like that.You're not
                     as fool as you wanna show yourself,doc!


                              BARZICK
                     And who done it?Who poisoned it?


                              PSYCHO
                     How do I know?I wasn't at the kitchen
                     when this killing thing was cooked...

                                                              82


                             continue
                              PSYCHO
                     And saying frankly,doc,any porridge
                     is dangerous.


                              BARZICK
                     Why?


                              PSYCHO
                     It was made of milk,am I right,doc?
                     So...someone need a cow to generate
                     thy milk,that white death...


                              BARZICK
                     White death?Interesting...go on!


                              PSYCHO
                     The fields are full of chemistry.
                     All field-flowers,all grass,
                     everything...
                     So!Grass is poisoned!Cow is poisoned!
                     Milk is poisoned!Porridge is poisoned!
                     I am the last in this chain!But I'll
                     never give up!I wanna die
                     as an ecologically pure being!


                              BARZICK
                     But at last you'll die from hunger!


                              PSYCHO
                     Well...Hunger is better then poison.
                     It's not such painful.
                     Hunger is too ecologically pure thing,
                     As I am.


                              BARZICK
                     I think we'd better try one more time.


             He takes the spoon full of porridge and starts
       to move it slowly to psycho's mouth.Psycho is sitting

                              continue
       unmovable,looking at the spoon as it was a kind of snake.
       Then suddenly openes mouth and by a quick beat of his
       long tongue turns the spoon over and the porridge flows
       down to the floor.


                              PSYCHO
                     Hurrah!Victory!Porridge in a deep
                     knock out!


             Tasian enters the cabinet.


                              TASIAN
                     Professor Barzick?


                              BARZICK

                              TASIAN
                     I'm a cop.


                              PSYCHO
                     And have you've got a handcuff?


                              TASIAN

                     What are you waiting for?

                     He is not a scientist?


                              TASIAN

                              TASIAN
                     Professor,can we talk in some
                     other place?


                                                              85





                              BARZICK
                     This is too insane for you?


                              TASIAN
                     Ye.I think that your wise patient
                     will not die of hunger till time
                     you get back to him.He doesn't look
                     thin at all.


                              PSYCHO
                     You're from their gang!Now I see.
                     Cops and scientists are together.
                     OK!I'll be a lone warrior.


             Psycho frowns,throws a gaze to the left room's
       corner and looks greatly surprised.As if he saw something
       outstanding."Scientist" and cop absolutely involuntary
       turns back.But there's nothing.Just a wall.Psycho looks
       at them in a mysterious way and then starts to giggle.


                              PSYCHO
                     Oh!It's really something!
                     They looked both,but they are
                     looks as if they signed nothing
                     interesting.Trying to make me
                     a fool?


                              BARZICK
                     And what you signed there?


                              PSYCHO
                     Same thing as you do.
                     Only a blind can't sign
                     a big pink elephant
                     in a corner of a room!
                     So,who is insane you or I?
                     Not to sign an obvious things!



                                                              86




             Barzick and Tasian goes to another room.Empty,clean
       of porridge and free of psychos.They takes a seat.


                              BARZICK
                     So,what can I do for you?


                              TASIAN
                     I heard that you visited Kozlinetti
                     family some time ago...
                     About seven years ago.


                              BARZICK
                     Kozlinetti?Can't remember.
                     I've got many patients...


                              TASIAN
                     They  are from mafia,so I
                     think you remember it well.


                              BARZICK
                     Oh,ye!Now I remembers...So?


                              TASIAN
                     Who was ill?


                              BARZICK
                     Ill?It wasn't just an ilness...
                     If someone in the middle of a night
                     takes knife and tries to cut his
                     own family...it's not an ilness.
                     It's a very heavy thing,my friend...


                              TASIAN
                     So,what was it...





                                                              87


                              BARZICK
                     I'll better tell you all from
                     beginning.I never heard about their
                     klan...belongs to mafia and so on.
                     They sad,that something was wrong
                     with one of the twins.An illness,
                     as you sad.When I came,they told me
                     to keep my visits in secret.
                     And they were not kidding.


                              TASIAN
                     Secret?What for?


                              BARZICK
                     I think that old Kozlinetti didn't
                     want to know anybody...that one of
                     his brilliant sons get a lunacy.
                     A shadow on family's honour or
                     something like that.
                     He paid me rather good for silence.
                     Only for silence.
                     Cause it was impossible to do
                     something serious with his son.


                              TASIAN
                     Impossible?


                              BARZICK
                     Maniac-depressive psycho...
                     Like possesed by evil.
                     I don't believe in hell or
                     something like that,but I just
                     don't know how to treat this.
                     Just to poison him by chemistry,
                     easy put in a prison cell in
                     a madhouse.He was too dangeruos
                     to be free.Thanks God,he's dead.


                              TASIAN
                     I am sorry to say,doc...
                     but he's not dead.



                                                              88




                              BARZICK
                     Are you sure?


                              TASIAN
                     I am.He was taken to prison
                     in a special byed private-house.
                     And get free two days ago.
                     Four men killed.Two are seriously
                     wounded.At minimum...May be it's
                     not all.I wanna know more about
                     him.


                              BARZICK
                     Oh,God!Well...As I came at first time
                     I was surprised.
                     Alessandro was absolutely normal.
                     Insanity doesn't come of nothing.
                     Than old Kozlinetti said
                     that his son exposed to violence.
                     Of some kind.
                     In my talks with Alessandro I found
                     out that he was  tortured
                     by chinese Koza Nostra...


                              TASIAN
                     Triad...chinese Triad.


                              BARZICK
                     May be...Triad.He also told me
                     something about a billiards.
                     I think,all this terrible things
                     has taken place there.In this
                     billiards.


                              TASIAN
                     And why he's killing?


                              BARZICK
                     Throwing agression out.
                     If you're hungry,you're eating.

                                                              89


                             continue
                              BARZICK
                     It's a kind of it for him.
                     There is a time after murder
                     When he's not dangerous.
                     Murder-rest.Murder-rest.
                     This is the rythm,
                     I think.But...may be not.


                              TASIAN
                     How do you think,
                     he'll try to return
                     to the billiards?


                              BARZICK
                     He will.It's a place where
                     he was changed...his mind
                     was changed.This place for him
                     is a kind of a church and
                     a house of pain in one face...


             EXT-STREET-SURROUNDINGS OF BILLIARDS.

             Tasian stops the car,looks a the building and  sre-
       ams of fury.


                              TASIAN
                     Fuccck!


             There's only  one  wall  of  billiards-building  is
       standing and even that last wall is under attack of
       a bulldozer.Tasian is standing and watching as the  wall
       falls down.The building  is  destroyed  to the ground.


             Meanwhile bulldozer's driver named ALEC stops his
       terrible car and gets out enjoying life.He's got a silly
       face and heavy way squint,so he looks like a mad cartoon
       hero.Alec  is coming to Tasian,nodes him friendly.





                                                              90


                              ALEC
                     Nice work,ye?Just a half an hour
                     and no building at all!


                              TASIAN
                     What the  fuck!What  the...why  you
                     destroyed it?Who gave you the order?!


                              ALEC
                     Oh!Sorry,man,really  sorry...
                     I even didn't now that  someone
                     is living there...so you're
                     homeless now?


                              TASIAN
                     Crrr...Tell me just one thing!
                     Just one thing:WHO GAVE YOU
                     THE ORDER?!


                              ALEC
                     Mr.Jankins,Jr.


                              TASIAN
                     And who is this Jr,Jankings?!


                              ALEC
                     He is my boss!Big man...
                     I can show you the papers.
                     Don't be so nervous.


            Alec gets back to bulldozer,takes the papers and go-
       es back to Tasian.He closes one eye for more easy reading
       and gets the right paper.


                              ALEC
                     That's it!That's the order,look it
                     yourself!I can't   remember  that
                     Mr.Jankings,Jr ever was mistaken!



                                                              91




             Tasian sadly takes the papers and looks threw them
       qiuckly.Then returns it back.


                              TASIAN
                     All right!Take  back your papery...
                     But tell me: have your seen yellow
                     police ribbons,when you came here?


                              ALEC
                     Well,I have some eyes problems...


                              TASIAN
                     I've signed it.Go on!


                              ALEC
                     But there was nothing yellow
                     or police,when I came here.I'm sure!


             As Tasian enjoys talking with an outstanding  bull-
       dozer,the maniac ALESSANDRO KOZLINETTI is looking at them
       from the street corner.He is looking at the destroyed bu-
       ilding and  something  gonna  change in his gaze.He turns
       around and slowly goes away,not seen by Tasian or anybody
       else.He's walking down the street as he's very tired wit-
       hout any sence where he's moving.Just gading about.


             Suddenly a car stops near him.Doors openes and
       Tolstinni with his bodyguards flows out of the car with
       servile smiles on their faces.


                              TOLSTINNI
                     Boss!Don Romeo!We  were searching
                     you everywhere...there are some
                     problems with chinese.
                     It's too dangerous now and you're
                     walking alone without
                     any protection.



                                                              92




             Alessandro looks  at Tolstinni with a tired and
       incomprehended gaze.


                              TOLSTINNI
                     Boss,get in the car,please.
                     The street is full of danger...
                     we must protect you.
                     Clo Fe Lin and Gu Ta lin were
                     arrested last night...
                     But now they are free.
                     TRIAD said that they wanna talk
                     with our klan and you,specially,
                     as you are the head of the klan,
                     the head of the family...
                     But it can be a dirty trick
                     from their side.
                     And cops still hanging around...


             Alessandro slowly gets inside the car.Tolstinni and
       his guards too.


                              TOLSTINNI
                     You know don Romeo,last time I...


                              ALESSANDRO
                     Hush!I got a headache.


                              TOLSTINNI
                     Oh!I see...you're ill,boss...
                     you look very bad.You need a doc!


             This easy phrase gets Alessandro out of his  indif-
       ferent and  tired  condition.Deep  fury is looking in his
       eyes and a kind of cramp is running threw his face.


                              ALESSANDRO
                     Weapon...weapon I need...



                                                              93




             Tolstinni's looking  curious.He is puttting hand in
       his own  pocket,getting  a  gun  and  giving  it  to  the
       "boss".Alessandro looks at the gun from both sides with a
       mask of surprisness and contemption.


                              ALESSANDRO
                     Is it...a weapon?


                              TOLSTINNI
                     Ye!Boss,what's wrong with you?


                              ALESSANDRO
                     I'm all right.


             He puts weapon on Tolstinni and begins to shoot.Un-
       til the weapon is empty.Tolstinni and his bodyguards  are
       dead.Driver is alive and calm as nothing serious happened.
       Alessandro pulles the trigger  twice,but  without  any
       result,cause the  gun's  empty.So he looses any interest
       to it and throws it down to the car floor.Fury's  gone
       away and he looks again sick and tired.


                              DRIVER
                     Absolutely right,boss!
                     I suspected that they've got
                     a kind of conspiracy against you...
                     together with chinese.
                     Tolstinni was a damned
                     fucking traitor.


                              ALESSANDRO
                     Traitors are everywhere...


                              DRIVER
                     They've got everything they deserved.
                     But the street is not a best place
                     for the corpses...Coming home?



                                                              94




                              ALESSANDRO
                     Ye!Home...I wanna go home.


             And they starts riding home in friendly company  of
       three warm  corpses.The car stops near a rich big private
       residence.They passes  big  gates  and   rides   to   the
       yard.Driver's getting  out to open the door for Alessand-
       ro,but "boss" gets out of the car himself.He doesn't need
       any help.He's looking  around in curiosity.He's  remembe-
       ring this place.Meanwhile the  house  guards  are  taking
       corpses from the car to a cellar.But it's not interesting
       for Alessandro.He enters the house.Coming up on the  next
       floor and stands looking at a portrait of an old grey
       haired man.


                              ALESSANDRO
                     Hallo,father!Still hanging on the wall?


             INT-CHARLIE'S BAR.

             Now it's opened,but still not crowded.Tasian is
         coming in.


                              CHARLIE
                     Good evening,bunny!You're  looking
                     sad and tired...Have a hard day?


                              TASIAN
                     As hard as possible.
                     Fred's in  hospital with a dagger
                     in a belly and some motherfucker
                     is walking down the street
                     killing  people
                     and blowing up petrol-stations.
                     I need some rest for my own soul.


                              CHARLIE
                     Whiskey?



                                                              95




                              TASIAN
                     Ye!


                   Tasian drinks his first glass quickly.


                              TASIAN
                     One more and I'll be OK.


             Charlie fills another glass for him.


                              CHARLIE
                     Please.


             Tasian 's  looking at the second glass thinking.And
       drinks it slowly.

                     Listen,Charlie,if you was hunting
                     a maniac...


                              CHARLIE
                     No "IF"!No!No maniacs...Thanks God,
                     I have a cool and silent work.

                     Never mind...Tell me:if you
                     was going to  arrest  a  maniac,
                     what you'll do at the first hand?
                     Get a revolver and tell:
                     you're under arrest?Hands up?

                              TASIAN
                     No.Not raping,but ripping.
                     Just a killer.Fucking killer.
                     Butcher.


                              CHARLIE
                     An easy normal psycho as I think...
                     there's a lot of troubles with
                     such bastards.First  of all he just
                     can't understand you.You wanna
                     arrest him,but  he  just can't
                     understand it.Hell knows what's
                     moving in such a cracked brain,
                     but it's moving in a wrong way.
                     If you'll  meet  a  mad  dog,put
                     revolver on it and'll tell it:
                     hands up!You're   under  arrest!
                     He'll understand nothing and'll
                     try to bite you.


                              TASIAN
                     Why a mad dog?Just a dog,normal dog
                     can't understand the fact of arrest.


                              CHARLIE

                     psychos!You have no reason to arrest
                     a normal dog.

                     What a bullshit...dogshit...
                     So,Dr.Charlie,you wanna say me that
                     this fucking  butcher  just can't
                     understand easy normal english?


                              CHARLIE
                     English or chinese,that's
                     no difference for him!If you wanna

                     Only three?Hey,man!He's not angry...
                     just a kind of a bad mood.I think...
                     Everything's OK.


                              GUNMAN #2

                     Mr.Kozlinetti,I suspect that we
                     just can't  understand each other.
                     We came here as friends...


                              CLO FE LIN

                     and I and my brother are very sorry
                     of that event.It was the cop's joke...


                              GUNMAN #2
                           ( to ALESSANDRO )
                     Boss,what they are talking about?
                     What prison cell?


                              ALESSANDRO
                     How do I know?I know just one thing:
                     they are irritating me...irritating
                     me seriously.


                              GUNMAN #1
                     May be...better kill'em?Boss?


                              ALESSANDRO
                     Ye...what other thing we can do
                     with  such  irritating  men?
                     Kill them all!Kill them right now!


             All the gunmen get their  weapons  immideately  and
       the massacre  begins.Clo Fe Lin and Gu Ta Lin  falls down
       dead,Grandfather of TRIAD is more quick.He  get's his own
       gun and  wounds gunman #3.Alessandro stands up and comes
       to him,granfather wants to shoot him down,but there is
       something  wrong with his gun,meanwhile Alessandro gets
       a hatchet and cuts old man's hand together with a gun.
       Then cuts his head.

                                                              102






             Alessandro looks over  the  battle field,his face
       changes into a mad evil mask,he enjoys the happening.
       He starts to laugh  and all the  gunmen,even the wounded
       gunman #3 starts too laugh.After a minute their laughter
       becomes  histerical and mad too.They all are mad.
       And laughter sounds like the howling of wolves.


                              ALESSANDRO
                     I've got one more thing to do...
                     and then we all can get long
                     long rest...


                   And he strokes his hatchet as a baton.


             EXT-STREET.

                     I think they wanna infringe my own
                     rights!If I'm little drunk and
                     singing some lamb songs it doesn't
                     mean that some punks can shoot
                     at me.I can defend myself!


                              TASIAN
                     Ye!It's fucking revolver time!
                     It came!


             Tasian and  Very Old Man starts to shoot back.First
       without any success,but as they themselve are drunk their
       movements are  unnormal.And  it's  not easy to shoot them
       down,too.


                              VERY OLD MAN
                     They are drunk more then we are.
                     Too drunk to be good  targets.
                     I'd better taste their car!


             He shots twice and his almighty big revolver  blows
       first car.Three gunmen flows to the  air,falls  down fore-
       ver.Alessandro is alive.He is moving forward slowly  with
       a hatchet  in  his  hand.Tasian  and  Very  Old Man turns
       back.Tasian shots down  a  fellow  with  a  small  machi-
       ne-gun.And Very  Old  Man  shots  at  the  other  with  a

                                                              105



                              continue
       pomp-gun.His bullet gets straight into  a  cartridge-clip
       and the  gun blows in gangster's hands.He falls down with
       a wild scream.


                              TASIAN
                     Not bad!Not bad!


             Meanwhile Very  Old Man reloads his revolver.A huge
       gunman shoots at him,but Very Old Man rocks a  little  as
       he's drunk  and  the bullet flows into outer space.And at
       next moment Tasian blows head of the huge  gangster  with
       two straight  shots.Huge  gangster  falls down and baries
       under his back another small gangster,who wisely was  hi-
       ding at  his back all the time shooting somewhere .Small
       gangster is trying to get  free,but  the  heavy carcass
       becomes  a  kind  of  a  gravestone for him.Small
       gangster is dying of asthma.


                              VERY OLD MAN
                     We've got them all?


                              TASIAN
                     Look back!This is the last...
                     and I have no wish to arrest him.


             Alessandro is coming to them with pale face,furious
       eyes and his well known hatchet.


                              VERY OLD MAN
                     You said he's mad?He's really ill?


                              TASIAN
                     I think we've got a good medicine
                     for such a kind of an illness,doc!


             They put  their  guns  on  the maniac and begins to
       shoot both.He rocks,he shakes,he looses his  hatchet.Last
       shot of Very Old Man blows his head into small pieces.

                                                              106




             Dead body falls down slowly.All's gone.


                              TASIAN
                     What can happen when a twin
                     gets free...damn!


                              VERY OLD MAN
                     I think you are wrong,son.
                     Nothing can happen.Nothing serious,
                     as I  and  my revolver are walking
                     down the street.This city can sleep
                     easily.With a little sniff,hah!
                     Jankings,Jr. and his revolver can
                     defend the city.


                              TASIAN
                     Jankings,Jr.?
                     You bought that billiards?


                              VERY OLD MAN
                     Hah!I do...and what's wrong?
                     May be you wanna arrest me
                     for it?


             FADE IN


                                THE END
