Serena and the Ratts Page #3

---

You don't know

what he's capable of.

Hey, kid.

What is this?

It looks like a .45.

What were you doing

at the warehouse?

What's the matter?

Can't I talk to some

old friends?

They're your marks.

No, they're your marks.

They're my friends.

What is this all about?

What do you think

it's about?

Maybe it's a cover,

maybe you have to keep

your enemies close...

or maybe it's a setup.

Is that what you think?

That I sent you

on a suicide mission?

Just decided to get rid

of you after five years?

Or maybe I just wanted

to get rid of your friend

Leonard there,

filling your head

with bullshit and drugs,

turning you into

a f***ing invalid!

F*** you, Boss.

You ruined my life,

not him.

Yeah, you used

to be a warrior.

I was a little girl!

Are you gonna kill me?

I'm getting bored.

This is over.

Call the RATTS.

Call off the attack.

Well...

I would, kid, but...

I don't think

they're gonna answer.

They're already dead.

You're lying.

Just tying up some

loose ends for a friend,

figured I would tie up

a few of my own--

The Black Coats,

the RATTS, Leonard--

all in one day.

I suppose it was a little

too ambitious to expect it

to go so smoothly.

[ train horn blowing ]

So you gonna

shoot me or not?

No.

I can't.

I didn't think so.

Leonard can.

Serena.

[ plane zooms overhead ]

[ gunshots ]

[ Serena panting ]

[ groaning ]

[ engine starts ]

[ tires skid ]

Leonard.

[ nearby chatter ]

Serena, I'm so sorry.

Don't worry about it.

It was my fault.

I should have known better.

Who hit me?

The triggerman,

Tarlowski.

I'll take care

of him. I promise.

Boss, too.

Boss?

Yeah, he got away.

Leonard, no.

I will

take care of this.

No.

You'll wait for me.

Don't do anything

without me.

You don't know

how he works.

Is it true

about the RATTS?

Yeah, they're all dead.

So it's just us

against them.

Seems that way.

Don't worry.

I won't leave

until you do.

Thank you.

Turner.

Mommy, it's snowing.

Snowing? Really?

Come inside, dear.

[ air-raid sirens blaring ]

What is it?

It's snowing.

That's not snow, boy.

That's ash.

[ blaring continues ]

[ distant explosions ]

[ speaking German ]

[ distant blaring,

explosions continue ]

How long are you

gonna keep us here?

[ bomb whistles ]

[ explosion ]

Well...

the Allied forces

are closing on

the Motherland,

and Hitler's

commanding officers

are desperate,

so I would say

you can expect to be

taken out of here

within 24 hours...

to be executed.

Have you ever

executed a man?

No.

Have you ever seen

a man executed?

No.

What were they thinking?

They could just

send you over here

so that you could...

[ hisses ]

take the Fhrer's head?

[ chuckles ]

Well, good luck to you.

Both of you.

But I have to say...

[ ascending stairs ]

[ gunfire, explosions

continue ]

[ coughing ]

[ gagging ]

Sarge, they're gassing us.

Those goddamn Krauts

are gassing us.

Stay calm.

Put that on,

and breathe.

Jesus Christ, Sarge,

stay calm?

You know what

this stuff does to you?

It's only smoke,

soldier.

[ coughing ]

Sarge, we gotta

get out of here.

[ gunfire,

explosions continue ]

What's your name,

soldier?

Say again.

Your name?

what's your name,

soldier?

McCoy, Private McCoy.

[ coughs ]

James Donovan.

Don't worry, McCoy.

We'll get out of here.

[ coughs ] How's that?

You got a plan?

You know that Kraut

that threw me in here?

I broke three

of his fingers while

he was searching me.

What good does that

do for us now?

[ hacking cough ]

He stopped searching me

after that.

They didn't

find Serena.

Who's Serena?

This is Serena.

[ explosion ]

[ siren passing ]

[ metal scrapes, rattling ]

[ coins jingling ]

[ sighs ]

Make it quick.

They make 'em young

nowadays, don't they?

What are you

waiting for?

[ grunts ]

I can't just let you go

so you can pop up

in my car tomorrow.

Are you some kind

of amateur?

[ chuckles ]

I get it.

You're not even

a little triggergirl,

are you?

Wow, you had me going

there for a minute.

[ sighs ]

I'll tell you what.

I need to make

a phone call.

You probably took that

while you were

robbing me of

my worldly possessions.

I'll let you

keep the phone

and anything else

you took,

but I need to make

a phone call, okay?

Dial Mr. Hollister.

Tell him--Heh.

Tell him

there's no coffee

left in the pot.

Tell him Boss said so.

There's no coffee

left in the pot.

Boss said so.

I don't have a name.

No name, huh?

What about Serena?

Isn't that you?

If you want.

People call me Boss,

'cause I'm so pushy.

Nice to meet you.

Can I go now?

Yeah, I'll let you go.

Just one thing

before you run off

to your squat.

Do you want a job,

Serena?

I'm too young

to get a job.

But you're not

too young to starve,

you're not too young

to get put away

for larceny,

and I don't think

you're too young

for my line of work.

I'm not a whore.

[ laughs ]

Of course not.

[ laughs ]

Do I look

like a pimp to you?

Oh, no, that's not

my line of work.

What do you do?

Come with me.

I'll show you.

Why me?

I just hate to see

a young girl like you

waste away

on the streets.

You don't want

to live like that.

I mean,

look at those people.

You deserve better.

I gotta drop

something off

at a friend's.

Come with me.

If I do anything

you don't like,

you can shoot me.

Okay?

What do I get out of it?

50 bucks.

Make it 100.

[ chuckles ]

Okay, 100 bucks.

Sound fair?

All right, I'll go.

But I swear,

if you do anything creepy,

I'll shoot you

in the face.

Deal.

[ chuckles ]

So, you know how

to break into a car,

but have you ever

stolen one?

All right,

you see the case

in the back there?

Yeah.

Grab it.

What's in it?

Don't open it,

for sh*t's sake.

Okay.

Just take it up

to the doorstep,

set it down,

and ring the bell.

[ chuckles ]

Do you want me to

light it on fire first?

Heh. The fire'll

come later.

Just go now before

the neighbors

get suspicious.

Okay.

Doorbell.

[ engine starts ]

That was easy.

Yeah, for you, it was.

[ explosion ]

[ laughing ]

Was that a bomb

in the briefcase?

Yes, it was.

[ laughs ]

Ouch, eh?

That's gotta sting.

Who opened it?

Uh, nobody important.

Did he have a family?

Oh, no. No.

I wouldn't risk

a child's life.

A woman, maybe,

if she deserved it,

but generally not.

Just miserable bastards.

We have a saying

in my profession.

"No women, no children,

except the son with a gun

and the wife with a knife."

Boss.

Yeah?

Next time,

tell me when there's

something in the case.

Sure.

Well, here's

your 100 bucks.

A deal's a deal.

Where do you live?

I'll drop you off.

I don't have a home.

I thought I was joking before

about that squat thing.

You don't have

any friend's place

you could stay at

or anything?

No.

All right, you'll stay

at my place, then.

I can't have

my new apprentice

end up dead

on the streets.

All right, but that

shooting-you-in-the-face-

for-being-creepy thing

still applies.
