MOLLY:

(to Smurf)

Smurf, I'm gonna need a bit of

self-help. Can you get a tourniquet on

that?

(to James)

Stay with me Sir, alright, stay with

me. Stay with me.

She lifts up his top to see a bullet wound to his abdomen which

is pouring blood. He is in agony.

JAMES:

Molly?

MOLLY:

Oi, that's Dawes to you.

JAMES:

Smurf? How's Smurf?

Smurf is trying to get a tourniquet on his arm.

NUDE-NUT (O.S.)

Where is he?

KINDERS (O.S.)

Did he take a hit?

Molly tries to pack his bullet wound with gauze.

MOLLY:

Put direct pressure on this boss.

Molly leaps across to Smurf and starts to wrap a dressing around

Smurf's shoulder to staunch the blood as best she can. Smurf groans.

MOLLY (CONT'D)

How you doing?

JAMES (O.S.)

Smurf?! How's he doing Molly?

MOLLY:

He's doing alright, aren't you Smurf?

SMURF:

I dunno, Moll.

MOLLY:

Yes you are. You’re gonna get better...

your gotta get better cos you're taking

me to Vegas.

SMURF:

You still wanna go?

MOLLY:

More than anything in the world. I

promise you.

Smurf smiles through his pain.

MOLLY (CONT'D)

Direct pressure. Put direct pressure

on that.

KINDERS (O.S)

Can anyone confirm he took the hit?

James groans. Molly leaps back onto him.

MOLLY (CONT'D)

How you doing boss?

JAMES:

No, you have to treat Smurf.

MOLLY:

I'm treating both of you.

Molly ties a bandage tightly around his abdomen.

JAMES:

(grabbing her and holding

her tightly, whispering)

I'm sorry. I'm sorry.

NUDE-NUT (O.S.)

Where the hell is he?!

KINDERS (O.S.)

Does anyone have eyes on Badrai?!

Molly turns. She is at a different angle to the others and is

the only one who can see an injured Badrai squatting slumped behind

the block. Badrai sees her, makes a move to pull up his weapon.

He picks it up and points it at Molly. Molly grabs the gun from

James, aims and fires.

We see the shock on her face after the shot has gone off at what

she has just done. She stares in disbelief before very slowly

lowering the gun.

As the reality of the situation hits her she starts to cry.

57:00 EXT. CHECK POINT/NR DISUSED COMPOUND. DAY 19.

The MERT has landed. James' stretcher is carried on board. Smurf

is conscious and able to be helped on to the MERT without a

stretcher.

Molly looks at him before heading away from the Mert with the

others so that it can take off. Molly looks up to the sky and

watches it head off to Bastion.
