As it turns. Julie suddenly reaches for it and pullsopen the door with a surge. Casper stumbles in, hisface hitting the hard tile with a crunch.

66 INT. CAPONE SUITE - JULIE 66

Making her move, she hauls as fast as she can across the

room. Aiming for that secret fireplace door.

FOUCHET:

Wheels with his PISTOL, unloads the clip. BULLETS are

catching up, ripping up the couch and the rest of thesuite. Julie dives right into the secret door.

67 INT. SECRET PASSAGEWAY - SAME TIME 67

Dark. Twisting. We MOVE WITH Julie as she races throughit, heart in her throat. She comes upon some old metalstairs, a sliver of light at the top, and clambers up...

68 EXT. BELL TOWER - NIGHT 68

High atop the Biltmore, this is where the passagewayleads out to. A door flies open and Julie appears.

Panicked. Wind whipping all around her. A bird flies

by, startling her. Hearing the APPROACHING THUGS, Juliesprints as best she can across the Spanish-tiled roof.

Turns to see -

69 EXT. BELL TOWER - NIGHT 69

Noah and Casper appear in the Bell Tower. Noah scans

the roof, takes aim and FIRES, but he's too far away --

and Julie disappears behind a rise in the roof.

She steps towards the edge of the roof. Quickly peers

She weighs the options. Jump or die.

NOAH AND CASPER:

As they try running across the harsh-tiled roof...

CASPER:

Now look. My f***in' shoes. My

f***in' Italian shoes!

Then Julie prays silently, takes a running start andleaps from the roof. SLOW-MOTION as Julie flies throughthe air like some glamorous angel.

71 EXT. BILTMORE POOL - UNDERWATER - NIGHT 71

as Julie breaks the surface with a huge splash. The

water swirls as her aching body struggles to the surface.

Julie breaks water like a dolphin, gasping for breath.

She's dazed and confused, but alive -- for the moment.

Burnett's quick to point out the trail of bloody footprints

Ruiz just tracked across the carpet.

Which Julie left on the fireplace mantel. Lowrey's quickto note the two separate shades of lipstick.

HOWARD:

covered in high-grade dope. Sound

Lowrey's eyes well up.

LOWREY:

Lois, then check in -

78 INT. LOIS FIELD'S MANOR - MASTER SUITE - NIGHT 78

Replete with balcony and billowy curtains, the old-styledmadame LOIS FIELDS sits up on her bed covered in pillowsand exotic stuffed animals. She thumbs an old, leather-

bound looseleaf binder full of modeling photos and

resumes.

LOIS FIELDS:
