Blind Fury Page #2

Synopsis: Nick Parker was a Vietnam vet who was blinded during the war. He was found by one of the local tribes, who taught him to enhance his remaining senses and to expertly wield a sword. On his return to the United States, he goes to visit an old Army buddy, Frank Devereaux, but discovers that he and his wife are divorced, and Frank no longer lives there. What they don't know is that Devereaux was playing in a crooked casino in Reno and accumulated a large debt. The casino boss is willing to forgive his debt if he does something for him: Devereaux is a chemist, and they want him to make designer drugs. In order to make sure he does it, they try to kidnap his son. But Nick is there, and Nick saves the boy. Thus begins a road trip to Vegas to protect the boy and save his friend, with the boss' henchmen in pursuit.

Your dad and I were picked

to take out the enemy.

The plan was that he would cover me...

while I would get close enough

to take them out.

We'd done it before.

This time, the other guys were waiting.

Frank!

Come back!

That's where I lost my sight.

My dad... I mean, did he do okay or what?

Your dad was fine.

Just fine.

We'll be stopping for about 10 minutes.

Whatever you have to do, do it real quick.

And wait for me at the outside.

Yes, Operator...

I'd like to place a collect call

to my mum in Miami, Florida.

Her name is Lynn Deveraux.

Yeah, D-e-v-e-r...

What's the big idea? I need to call my mum.

You can't.

Why not?

Why can't I?

Billy, there's something you gotta know.

What's that supposed to mean?

Billy.

Billy!

Billy!

You lied to me!

You told me she was at home!

Shut up!

Help!

Don't! Stop!

Shoot.

Popcorn!

Snow!

What the hell is going on around here?

Nick!

Nick.

Come here.

Yeah, it's okay.

Everything's gonna be all right.

Yeah, it's all right.

There they all go.

Headed for Harrah's.

- Glitter and flash.

- Sh*t.

Do you remember

when the Silver State was the place?

Sweet times.

- Where'd we go wrong?

- Bank didn't give you the extension, huh?

If I don't come up with the green

to retire those loans in two days...

they're gonna retire us.

- Ed, I'm not keen on that idea.

- Slag's on it, Mr MacCready, but this blind...

I don't wanna hear about this blind man!

What are you doing? Taking the stuff

we're supposed to be selling?

- No, I...

- Shut up, Ed.

If you can't handle it,

get me somebody that can.

Get me Bruce Lee.

- Bruce Lee is dead.

- Then get his brother.

Do it, Ed. Goddamn it, just do it.

Nice head. Room for some brains in there.

I like that nose.

I don't. It's always plugged up.

Firm chin. All the makings of a strong man.

Tears.

Good.

Because a strong man is never afraid to cry.

Did you ever cry?

I wish I could.

The place that makes tears inside my head

doesn't work anymore.

I wish mine didn't.

We'll be at your father's tomorrow.

He doesn't want me.

Come on.

With talent like this...

any man would love to have a son like you.

You think so?

Yeah.

Did you see that?

- We should get one of those, honey.

- Yeah.

Been a pleasure driving y'all.

Take care now.

Come on.

He doesn't want me and I don't want him.

Billy, whatever happened before

was in the past.

You got to learn how to forgive.

Come on.

Steps. One, two.

- Hi, there, Billy.

- Who are you?

My name's Annie

and I'm a friend of your daddy's.

Y'all come in. Come on in.

Billy.

Nick, look out.

Bang.

Kind of hard for a blind man to look out,

ain't it, brother Lyle?

Sure is, brother Tector. Lights out.

- Hold still, you little sh*t.

- Get your hands off of him.

Claude promised me

there wasn't gonna be any violence.

Shut up, b*tch.

Mr MacCready told us to get the job done

and that's what we're gonna do.

Hold still.

I love it.

Slag takes days. Can't even cut the mustard.

- But we nail the brat and the bat.

- In two minutes flat.

Mao!

Want some, girl? Look at the road, man!

Too much linguini?

Billy?

Billy.

I think I'm gonna throw up.

Swell.

Before you do that...

I want you to get us out of here.

- Me?

- Yeah.

How? I can't.

Just do as I tell you.

I can't.

Well, then...

we're gonna die.

Give me a hit of that thing.

Want some?

What do you want me to do?

Okay. Crouch down like a frog.

Come on.

Put your hands on the floor.

Slide your butt through your arms.

Come on.

I can't. I just can't do that.

Yes, you can. Try. Try.

How's it going?

Pretty good. Almost there.

Got one leg through.

- I did it!

- Great.

Get my lighter.

No, in my shirt.

- Okay?

- Got it.

Light it.

Hold it steady.

Hey, Tector.

Look at this.

The blind Zorro.

Stupid thing's got a curse on it!

Start counting out loud.

One, two...

- Don't stop until the van does.

...three, four...

Hey, baby, lick my wound.

I said, lick my wound.

Oh, yeah, baby. More.

Hey. Hey, Lyle. Something's burning, man.

- And I think it's love.

- No, man. Something's burning!

Hell. Stop the van.

Come on.

Man, my head.

- Who's gonna drive?

- Let's go, boys.

We gotta go back.

Can you turn it around?

Hold on.

- How far did you count?

- Thirty-one.

Count backwards.

Thirty, twenty-nine, twenty-eight...

Stop. Help us. Help us, please.

Hey, hey. No!

...four, three, two, one.

- Stop.

- What? Why?

Stop right here.

My cane must be out here somewhere.

Of course. Those two heathens

wanna have us for lunch...

but what's really important here

is that you find your damn cane.

Yes, let's go.

Thank God you stopped.

We fell off a poultry truck.

We gotta get my brother to the hospital.

I think he's a goner.

Get out.

I said, get out!

Come on, you battle-axe. Move your ass.

B*tch.

Kill them.

Jesus H. Christ.

Yeah. That's one reason

I always vote for gun control.

I got it! I got it!

Thanks, Billy.

- Well, hallelujah.

- Good work.

Run!

My glasses!

- I think I just found them.

- I can't drive without my glasses!

Lucky for me. I'm blind.

Billy, navigate.

Nice going, Tector!

What the hell were you doing?

I've had a really bad day!

Keep going straight. Going straight.

Go over to the right a little bit.

Go back to the left.

Too much, too much. Keep going straight.

Just stay right there.

You're going into the left lane. Look out!

What's your problem, jerk off? You blind?

Yeah, what's your excuse?

Holy sh*t.

Red light!

Slow down!

- Tell me when we hit the next intersection.

- Now. Turn right.

- Right?

- No, I mean left.

This is easy. Just like riding a bike.

Once you learn, you never forget.

Sh*t!

Take that!

- Are we in a tunnel?

- No, there ain't no tunnels in Reno.

Stop!

Wow, that was fun.

Yeah.

Maybe I should get my licence again.

Yeah.

The first thing we do is karasan.

This is the basic posture in yoga...

in between all standing positions...

Don't you worry, now, Annie.

Y'all will be safe here.

Thanks, Colleen.

I know I can always count on you.

Ain't no big thing, baby.

I used to bring Frank's drinks

to the roulette wheel.

That's how we met.

He'd be at that table

round the clock for days...

and then he wouldn't show up for weeks.

Trying to be a good boy, I guess.

But you'd think a guy

with Frank's brains would know better.

I guess we all got our weaknesses.

Yes.

Just get Frank out of there.

Don't worry about it.

Uncle Nick, don't go.

That's nice. You're my nephew now, huh?

Don't leave me. Everybody leaves me.

Hold down the fort. Protect the women.

I'll be back.

Promise?

- You gotta promise.

- I'm gonna get your dad.

Goodbye, Billy.

Come on.

Come on, baby, go. Give me that jack.

Hey, man.

I want you to meet my new bride, Mindy...

- her folks.

- Hi, how are you?

Reception's gonna start

in about 10 minutes.

Why don't you come in and join...

- I want the eight.

- He's already got that, ma'am.

- Thirty on double zero.
