Natural Born Killers Page #17

The two deputies proceed to beat the sh*t out of her with

their shotguns.

Scagnetti rolls around in the b.g., holding his bloody

nose, screaming.

SCAGNETTI:

She broke my f***ing nose! That

b*tch broke my nose!

Washington comes over to him and helps him up.

SCAGNETTI:

(blood down his

face)

She broke my nose.

WASHINGTON:

I'll fix it.

He grabs Scagnetti's nose, then snaps it back into place.

Scagnetti lets out another horrible scream, and hops up

and down from the pain.

(CONTINUED)

95.

CONTINUED:

When the rush of pain passes, Scagnetti brings his hands

down from his face, looking over at Mallory.

Bingham has Mallory in the corner of the cell with the

shotgun barrel placed in her mouth.

CLOSEUP -SCAGNETTI

He's a hand grenade with the pin pulled.

SCAGNETTI:

Hold her, boys.

Scagnetti walks to the corner where Mallory is. The

shotgun barrel's out of her mouth. Bingham and

Washington stand on either side of her, holding her in

place.

Scagnetti grabs a can of mace from Washington's belt,

and brings it up to Mallory's face.

Mallory and Scagnetti trade looks.

Scagnetti gives her an intense blast of mace right in the

face, eyes, and all down her body.

Mallory crumples to the floor, screaming in agony.

TWO SHOT -BINGHAM AND WASHINGTON

looking down at Mallory on the ground. We can hear

Scagnetti still SPRAYING her. They can't look at this

anymore.

Mallory wiggles on the floor as Scagnetti continues

spraying her all over her body.

CLOSEUP -SCAGNETTI

His bloody face smiling. We hear the sound of the CAN

of mace RUNNING EMPTY. It SPURTS to a stop.

Scagnetti rises up to the two deputies. He hands the

empty can back to Washington.

SCAGNETTI:

I want this filled before we

leave.

The three men walk out of the holding cell, closing and

locking the door behind them. We can still hear

Mallory's SCREAMS of excruciating pain.

96.

INT. SUPPLY ROOM -DAY

Mickey's sitting in a chair eating a donut. Roger's

attaching a microphone to his shirt. Unruly Julie's

applying make-up to Mickey's face.

MICKEY:

(to Unruly Julie)

How come you never talk?

ROGER:

She was born without a tongue.

MICKEY:

(repulsed)

Oh my God!

(to Unruly Julie)

Sorry.

Unruly Julie shrugs her shoulders like "what ya gonna do"

and continues applying pancake.

Wayne and Wulitzer talk.

WAYNE:

So we got a deal. Four

deputies -

WURLITZER:

And me.

WAYNE:

Why don't we make it three

deputies and you?

WURLITZER:

Why don't I have Mickey thrown

back into his cell and we can

forget the whole thing?

WAYNE:

Chill out, Phil. Four deputies

and you, I can live with that.

We're about ready to go here, so

let's get rid of these other

a**holes.

WURLITZER:

Don't call my men a**holes.

WAYNE:

I didn't mean they were a**holes.

I mean if they're leaving, get

'em outta here.

(CONTINUED)

97.

CONTINUED:

Wayne leaves Wurlitzer and goes over to Scott, who's

setting up a light stand.

WAYNE:

Okay, Scotty, we're stuck with

four of these a**holes. Now I

want to create the illusion that

this is just Mickey and I chewin'

the fat all by ourselves. So

make sure you don't film these

a**holes. I don't want to see 'em

on film ever. Oh, and 'Live at

Five' slated our spot as human

interest which means we'll go

live at just after five-thirty.

Wayne exits to reveal Mickey in b.g.

Wurlitzer's speaking with his four deputies.

WURLITZER:

This a**hole's tryin' to tell me

what I'm gonna do in my jail.

F*** him! This nanderfuck doesn't

know what he's dealin' with here,

but we do. And if sh*t happens,

he ain't gonna be responsible, we

are. So keep your shotguns out,

your fingers on the triggers, and

be ready to fire at a moment's

notice.

BACK TO MICKEY:

alone IN FRAME, sitting in a chair and eating a donut.

He takes a big bite.

ROGER:

Say something.

MICKEY:

(mouthful of donut)

What?

ROGER:

Anything.

Mickey swallows the bite the donut, pauses, then recites

a poem.

(CONTINUED)

98.

CONTINUED:

MICKEY:

(talking in rhyme)

I stand amid the roar

Of a surf tormented shore,

And I hold within my hand

Grains of the golden sand -How

few! Yet how they creep

Through my fingers to the deep,

While I weep --while I weep!

O God! Can I not grasp

Them with a tighter clasp?

O God! Can I not save

One from the pitiless wave?

Is all that we see or seem

But a dream within a dream?

Mickey bites into the donut.

MICKEY:

(mouthful of donut)

How was that?

Roger joins him IN FRAME and adjusts the mike.

ROGER:

Ah... fine. Let me make an

adjustment here, and we'll be

ready to rock 'n roll. Oh... uh,

the dumbass at the donut place

put a chocolate cream-filled in

I asked for in your box.

MICKEY:

There's a chocolate cream-filled

in there?

ROGER:

Yeah. Ya see, I ordered that

special.

MICKEY:

Tough titty, it's mine now.

ROGER:

Look, I'll trade you.

Wayne ENTERS FRAME.

WAYNE:

Roger, enough with the f***ing

donuts! What did I tell you.

Stop bothering Mickey, and get

behind your nagra.

(CONTINUED)

99.

CONTINUED:

ROGER:

(to himself)

Fine. Roger, what the hell are

you doing? You're bothering the

serial killer.

Roger EXITS FRAME.

Wayne grabs a chair and sets it in front of Mickey.

WAYNE:

Sorry about that.

MICKEY:

Don't worry about it.

WAYNE:

We're about ready to go here.

Are you ready?

MICKEY:

Let's do it.

Wayne smiles and EXITS FRAME.

WAYNE (O.S.)

Okay people! Let's start to

settle down here.

CUT TO:

INT. SUPPLY ROOM (16MM -BLACK & WHITE) -DAY (MINUTES

LATER)

Scene is now SHOT THROUGH Scott's CAMERA which holds an

EXTREME CLOSEUP of Mickey's eye. CAMERA FOCUSES then

PULLS OUT to include his whole face.

WAYNE (O.S.)

Are you comfortable?

Mickey looks to Wayne OFF SCREEN and nods.

WAYNE (O.S.)

Roger?

ROGER (O.S.)

Rockin'!

WAYNE (O.S.)

Scotty?

SCOTT (O.S.)

Rollin'... and speed!

(CONTINUED)

100.

CONTINUED:

WAYNE (O.S.)

Slate it.

Camera slate reading "KNOX INTERVIEW --ROLL #1" is

thrust INTO VIEW and clapped. The CAMERA ZOOMS OUT to

include Wayne IN the FRAME.

WAYNE:

So, Mickey, tell us what you do

for fun.

MICKEY:

Aside from the obvious?

Mickey breaks out laughing.

WAYNE:

(not amused)

Yes. Aside from the obvious.

Mickey's laughing slowly runs its course.

MICKEY:

Okay, let me see now. What do I

do for fun?

(to people O.S.)

Does anybody got a smoke? You

guys are drivin' me crazy with

your cigarettes.

(TO CAMERA)

Sorry out there in TV land. I'm

just sittin' here lookin' at

these deputies smokin' up a storm,

and it's really doin' it to me.

A deputy comes INTO FRAME, hands Mickey a cigarette, then

lights it. Deputy EXITS FRAME.

MICKEY:

Much obliged. What do I do for

fun? Do you want to know what I

do for fun or what I did for fun?

WAYNE:

What? Oh, aaahhh, what you did

for fun for starters.
