INT. CAFE. DAY.
BONNIE, CLYDE and C.W. seated in a booth in a cafe. The
Waitress brings the food and serves everybody. We see C.W.
With great concentration, as he does everything by relating
to the immediate action he happens to be involved with, he
takes the sugar shaker and begins methodically sprinkling
sugar over all his food. He sugars the meat, the beans, and
the beets. BONNIE and CLYDE watch this performance with
first, amazement and second, disgust. They can't believe
what they see.
BONNIE:
(incredulously)
C.W., what are you doing? Why do
you do that?
27.
C.W.
(beginning to eat it)
Why not?
BONNIE:
It's just disgusting, that's why.
C.W.
(chewing)
Not to me it ain't.
BONNIE:
But...but it makes everything sweet!
C.W.
Yeah, I know.
With a resigned expression, BONNIE turns away and begins to
eat. Suddenly a look of consternation crosses C.W.'s face.
C.W.
Damn! No mayonnaise!
He gets up and goes down to the counter on the other end of
the restaurant, out of our vision, apparently planning to
put mayonnaise over the sugar. The minute he is out of
earshot, BONNIE gets CLYDE's attention.
BONNIE:
Clyde, why does he have to stay in
the same room as us?
CLYDE seems not to have heard the question. He takes up the
sugar shaker and spreads a thin field of sugar on the dark
table surface. He will sketch his plan in the sugar.
CLYDE:
Lemme show you about tomorrow.
BONNIE:
Why?
CLYDE:
Now C.W.'ll be waitin' right
outside in the car. Here is the
teller's cage. Four of them and
over here the desks and what have
you...
BONNIE:
Why, Clyde...
CLYDE:
Hmmm??
28.
BONNIE:
In the same room with us?
CLYDE:
Hell, where else? Ain't gonna
spread out all over the state...
The harshness of his tone concerns him and he recovers with
a smile.
CLYDE:
(continuing)
Not yet, anyway. Now, the door to
the bank is here now. You cover me
from there.
BONNIE:
(takes his hand to
her face)
Just that I love you so much.
CLYDE:
You're the best damn girl in Texas.
C.W. comes back with the mayonnaise; looks at the table.
C.W.
Hey, you spilled the sugar.
Three shot.
CLYDE:
(eating)
Mineola.
C.W.
Mineola? Gosh, that's four, five
hundred miles from here!
CLYDE:
So what? We take U.S. 85 to Willis
Point, don't you know, and cut over
on State Highway 28 at Kaufman,
keep on goin' till we hit the farm-
to-market road that connects to 105
and that's right up by Mineola. On
a Saturday afternoon...
The car driving into a small Kansas town. It is Saturday
afternoon, sunny. The streets are filled with people, cars,
wagons. C.W.
29.
is driving, BONNIE is in front with him, CLYDE is in the
back. C.W. looks scared to death at the idea of robbing a
bank. The car pulls up in front of the bank, double-parked.
BONNIE and CLYDE get out.
EXT. CAR. DAY.
CLYDE:
Keep it running.
BONNIE and CLYDE enter bank.
INT. BANK #2. DAY.
Cut to the interior of the bank. BONNIE and CLYDE come in,
assume the class positions--she at the door where she can
cover the bank, CLYDE at the first teller's cage.
CLYDE:
(in a very quiet voice)
This is a stickup.
TELLER:
What?
CLYDE:
This is a stickup.
This time everyone in the bank hears it. The people gasp
and pull back. CLYDE slowly edges toward the door and prods
BONNIE forward. She carries a paper sack. CLYDE motions
her to go from cage to cage and get all of the money.
BONNIE begins doing so, while CLYDE keeps his gun trained on
everybody. We see BONNIE get the money from the first
teller, the second teller, then...
A car parked in a tight spot has just pulled out.
Close-up C.W. Day--who suddenly looks delighted to see a
parking space.
EXT. CAR -STREET. DAY.
Immediately he methodically begins to back in. It's a tight
spot and he has to cut the wheel, pull forward, cut some
more, pull back and so on. The scene, for the audience,
should be nervous and funny.
CUT TO:
30.
INT. BANK #2. DAY.
Inside the bank, BONNIE and CLYDE have filled the sack.
They run out the door, the camera tracks with them.
They run for where the car was, but it isn't there. Then
they see C.W. has parked it.
INT. CAR. DAY.
CLYDE:
Let's go! Let's go!
C.W. suddenly realizes what a stupid thing he's done.
EXT. CAR. STREET. DAY.
C.W. tries to shoot out of the parking spot, but he can't.
He has to go through the business of backing up, cutting the
wheel and all of it. The scene is one of pure pandemonium
and chaos.
INT. CAR.
CLYDE:
Come on! Get it out!
EXT. CAR. DAY.
A policeman arrives and begins firing at car. C.W. gets the
car halfway out of the spot, scraping fenders in the process,
and the car is almost out when suddenly a face looms up at
the window--a dignified, white-haired, celluloid-collared
man, obviously a bank official who has leaped onto the
running board. His screaming can barely by distinguished
from all the noise.
MAN:
Stop!
CLYDE fires through the window.
Close-up (special effects). The face of the man explodes in
blood. Then he drops out of sight.
EXT. CAR. DAY.
The car shoots off down the road, doing ninety. Police are
firing at the escaping car; BONNIE and CLYDE are shooting
out the back window; C.W. is almost having a nervous
breakdown at the wheel.
31.
EXT. STREET. A MOVIE HOUSE. DAY.
A police car that had been chasing CLYDE and BONNIE's car
comes down the street. It is obvious that the cops have
lost them. They are searching the street for a sign of
CLYDE's car. They pass a movie house whose marquee reads:
"GOLDDIGGERS OF 1933." They slow for a moment, decide that
is not a probable place to look. They drive off.
INT. MOVIE HOUSE. WIDE ACROSS AUDIENCE AT SCREEN.
The opening musical sequence of "Golddiggers" is on the
screen. Ginger Rogers sings "We're In The Money." Among
the audience we cannot make out our three people. It is a
small audience and thinly dispersed.
Tight shot at audience. Camera pans the audience while on
the track we hear the music of the song. First of our group
who becomes visible is C.W. He is staring at the screen and
eating bites from a candy bar in each hand. Camera pans
further and we see that CLYDE is in the row behind C.W. and
a few seats to one side. CLYDE is nervous and keeps watching
the entrance doors. He is in a rage. He shifts in his seat.
CLYDE:
Boy, you gotta be poor in the head.
You...! Count of you I killed a
man. Murder...you too.
Shot from behind CLYDE. Shooting toward screen.
CLYDE:
(continuing)
Dumb ass stupid.
C.W. turns to CLYDE and nods agreement. This infuriates
CLYDE even more. He slaps the back of C.W.'s head.
CLYDE:
Ever do a dumb thing like that
again, I'll kill you boy!
