Indiana Jones And The Last Crusade Page #15

She's awfully hard to resist.

INDY:

At least I let you tag along.

ELSA:

Oh, yes. Give them a flower and

they'll follow you anywhere.

INDY:

Knock it off. You're not mad.

ELSA:

No?

INDY:

No. You like the way I do things.

ELSA:

It's lucky I don't do things the

same way. You'd still be standing at

the Venice pier.

She stomps her foot angrily. Indy flinches. She starts to

walk away but Indy grabs her.

INDY:

Look, what do you think is going on

here? Since I've met you, I've nearly

been incinerated, drowned, shot at,

and chopped into fish bait. We're

caught in the middle of something

sinister here. My guess is Dad found

out more than he was looking for.

And until I'm sure, I'm going to

continue to do things the way I think

they should be done.

He pulls her to him and kisses her.

ELSA:

How dare you kiss me!

Now Elsa reaches for Indy and kisses him.

INDY:

Leave me alone. I don't like fast

women.

But he embraces her, and Elsa begins to nibble at his ear.

ELSA:

And I hate arrogant men.

Indy smiles slyly as they fall to the bed.

EXT. VENICE CANAL - DAY

A GONDOLIER SINGS as he steers his gondola carrying two

passengers past Indy's window.

INT. INDY'S BEDROOM - DAY

Indy lies on top of Elsa, kissing her. He stops for a moment

as he hears the Gondolier SINGING.

INDY:

Ahh, Venice.

Elsa reaches up and pulls him back down to her.

EXT. ROAD THROUGH THE AUSTRIAN MOUNTAINS - DAY

A Mercedes-Benz glides through the sharp mountain curves.

This is SUPERIMPOSED OVER A MAP that charts their course

from Venice across Austria toward Salzburg.

EXT. CASTLE IN THE AUSTRIAN MOUNTAINS - DAY

Storm clouds darken the skies. THUNDER EXPLODES in the

distance; lightning flashes. The Mercedes-Benz drives into

the courtyard of the formidable stone castle.

INDY:

What do you know about this place?

ELSA:

I know the Brunwalds are famous art

collectors.

INT. MERCEDES-BENZ - DAY

Indy reaches into the back seat and retrieves his bullwhip.

ELSA:

What are you going to do?

INDY:

Don't know. Think of something.

He glances up to the beret Elsa is wearing. She reaches up

and adjusts it.

INT. CASTLE ENTRANCE HALL - DAY

A BUTLER walks to the door and opens it to reveal Indy and

Elsa standing outside in the rain. She now wears Indy's

fedora; Indy is wearing Elsa's beret.

BUTLER:

Yes?

Indy, followed by Elsa, steps inside, shaking the water from

his overcoat. He adopts a Scottish accent.

INDY:

And not before time! Did you intend

to leave us standing on the doorstep

all day? We're drenched!

As Indy says this he pushes his way past the startled Butler,

pulling a handkerchief from the man's pocket. Elsa follows,

taking off her coat. Indy SNEEZES HARD.

INDY:

Now look! I've gone and caught a

sniffle.

Indy dabs at his nose with the handkerchief as Elsa looks on

in amused amazement.

BUTLER:

(coldly; with Austrian

accent)

Are you expected?

INDY:

Don't take that tone with me, my

good man. Now buttle off and tell

Baron Brunwald that Lord Clarence

MacDonald and his lovely assistant

are here to view the tapestries.

BUTLER:

Tapestries?

INDY:

Dear me, the man is dense. This is a

castle, isn't it? There are

tapestries?

BUTLER:

This is a castle. And we have many

tapestries. But if you're a Scottish

lord, then I am Mickey Mouse.

INDY:

How dare he?!

Simultaneously knocking the Butler cold with one slug on the

jaw. The Butler falls against a wall tapestry, sliding down

to the floor, out cold.

INT. CASTLE HALLWAY - DAY

Indy and Elsa move cautiously and quietly down the wide,

vaulted hallway. APPROACHING VOICES ARE HEARD. Indy and Elsa

creep past a room full of NAZI SOLDIERS working around a

large table with a map atop it..

Indy reacts to the sight of them.

INDY:

(to Elsa; softly)

Nazis. I hate these guys.

Indy and Elsa continue down the hallway. Indy carries a gun

in his hand and his whip hangs from his belt. He steps to a

closed door and listens.

INDY:

This one. I think he's in here.
