GAFF:
(in Japanese)
*** You will be required to
accompany me, sir. ***
Deckard doesn't understand Japanese, thinks the man
wants a seat.
DECKARD:
Wait your turn, pal.
Deckard turns back to his food.
GAFF:
(in Japanese)
*** If you do not comply with an
official request, I will be
obliged to exert my authority. ***
Deckard is ignoring Gaff but the Counterman leans in
Deckard's face and translates.
THE COUNTERMAN:
He say, you go with him.
Deckard turns and finds Gaff waving a badge in his face.
GAFF:
(in Japanese)
*** To defy duly constituted
authority is to flaunt the public
good. ***
Deckard doesn't understand a word.
THE COUNTERMAN:
He say, you're under arrest, Deckard.
Deckard turns back to his food.
DECKARD:
Tell him he's got the wrong guy.
(turning to Gaff
loudly)
You got the wrong guy, pal.
GAFF:
(in Japanese)
*** Wrong guy, my ass. You're
known as The Boogeyman in every
mean joint in town. ***
THE COUNTERMAN:
He say, Boogeyman.
Deckard flinches at the word "Boogeyman," but goes on
eating. But now we know, and he knows it's not a
mistake.
GAFF:
(in Japanese)
*** You are a Blade Runner in the
Four Sector and after the slaughter
at the steel shop they called you
Mister Nighttime. ***
THE COUNTERMAN:
He say, Brade Runner. He say,
Mister Nightime.
DECKARD:
Tell him I'm eating.
GAFF:
(to the Counterman
in Japanese)
*** Please tell this notorious
gentleman that I am acting as an
emmisary from Captain Bryant and
Captain Bryant has ordered me to
bring Mr. Deckard to headquarters
even if I have to serve him like
so much sushi. ***
Deckard is continuing to eat but he has reacted to
Gaff's repeated use of the word "Bryant."
THE COUNTERMAN:
(to Deckard)
He say, you be ornery, okay. He
say big boss Bryant give him
permission to use violence make
arrest. He say Bryant tell him
rearrange your brains akay. Make
you raw fish.
Deckard looks disgusted and resigned.
DECKARD:
Bryant huh.
CUT TO:
EXT. STREET - NIGHT
Deckard, still holding his bowl of food, is climbing
into a spinner behind Gaff as the two cops loom over
him. One of the cops shuts the spinner door behind
Deckard and the spinner lifts off in a flurry of wind.
CUT TO:
EXT. CITY - BIRD'S EYE VIEW - NIGHT
The spinner zips through the canyons of the city.
Deckard is sitting in the passenger seat, eating while
he watches the maze of suspension bridges, platforms
and catwalks swim by below. The tops of larger build-
ings emblazoned with fluorescent numerals and scrawls
of neon ads.
CUT TO:
INT. SPINNER - NIGHT
Deckard is sitting gloomily in the passenger seat,
still eating from his bowl with chopsticks as Gaff
maneuvers the spinner through the city canyons chat-
tering in rapid Japanese.
GAFF:
(in Japanese)
I told Bryant I could take care of
this myself. Just move me up.
I'll do the job, I told him. Five
phonies. I just air 'em out.
(he imitates shooting)
Bow! Bow! Bow!
Deckard looks at Gaff uncomprehendingly.
GAFF:
(continuing in Japanese)
But no, he says. Bryant thinks
you're hot sh*t, smartest spotter,
baddest Blade Runner. You don't
look so hot to me. Don't even
shave. Bad grooming reflects on
the whole department. You don't
dress well, that reflects on me...
makes the whole department look
like sh*t.
The skin jobs look better than you
do! What's the point of wiping out
skin jobs if they look better than
Enforcement? pretty soon the public
will want skin jobs for Enforcement.
I guess you'd prefer that, hunh?
That why you quit?
Deckard looks at Gaff. He hasn't understood a word.
DECKARD:
I don't understand a word you're
saying.
Gaff glares and mutters, turning his attention to navi-
gation of the spinner.
GAFF:
(in Japanese)
Exactly! Whatta jerk! If I wasn't
up for promotion I'd put this baby
in a hot spin and leave your dinner
all over the glass!
The spinner flies low along the center of a busy
street and then turns right.
EXT. PRECINCT SPINNER PAD - NIGHT
The spinner slides toward the pad, cuts speed and
gently touches down as another lifts off.
CUT TO:
INT. POLICE HQ CONCOURSE - NIGHT
An enormous grey vault of a building, Deckard and Gaff
stride down the long corridor. Perhaps Gaff is still
jabbering in Japanese.
CUT TO:
