Suicide Squad: Hell to Pay Page #2

---

take orders from murderers.

Not even if I said, "Please"?

I answer to a higher authority.

Higher than Waller? That

sounds like blasphemy, mate.

I'd say maybe we should

take this outside.

But that's up to her.

WALLER:
Settle down, love birds.

It's too early to start

losing your heads just yet.

I've requisitioned

this vehicle for your mission.

FROST:

You're kidding?

WALLER:
Like I said,

this one is off the books.

No hotels...

(GIGGLING) Roadtrip!

I guess that'll save us from having

to explain him to the concierge.

Hiss.

Hey, we got cheese dogs

and Chicken Nuggies!

Blow me up now.

- (HORN HONKING)

- (TIRES SCREECHING)

(HISSES)

(INAUDIBLE)

(CHUCKLES)

It's about time.

Your late, you waste of flesh.

ZOOM:
Banshee, is that any way

to talk to our associate?

Please, see him in.

Word is, they gave her

six months tops,

so really wants the card

bad now.

It's all there, all the information

Waller has on the card.

Your text said

she sent out Task Force X.

Last night,

I tried to get these to you

sooner, but I have to be careful.

The Wall has eyes everywhere.

I shouldn't be gone too long.

(GROANS)

Uh, thanks.

Before you rush off, you neglected to

tell me where Waller is sending them.

Branson.

The man they're tracking, he's been

spotted there looking for work.

What does he do?

He's an...

entertainer.

- Whoa, whoa, whoa.

- Hey!

LAWTON:
Park in the back.

- (PEOPLE CHEERING)

- Oh, yeah, whoo!

(WHOOPING)

- Woo-hoo, yeah!

- Curb it, clown.

We don't wanna call attention

to ourselves.

Honey, in case you haven't

noticed, nobody's looking at us.

- Split up.

- Dibs on backstage!

Woo-hoo. I like that!

I'm going.

Look at the bag of marbles

on that fella.

You missed your calling, Snake eyes,

chicks would go crazy for you.

Bored now. Going out.

Uh-uh, we're on standby.

Deadshot gave us montior duty.

So much for not taking orders

from murderers, eh, Benji?

Shut it, Boomer.

Sit your ass down.

Make me, dolomite.

I don't kill innocents.

But I doubt if you'd qualify.

Pull it back.

Or I'll rip your mouth in half.

(GRUNTING)

You're on a mission,

you don't wander away, you don't make

trouble, and you don't piss me off.

(GROANS)

We didn't see him.

This nut job was

frisking the boys.

I had to cool her off.

Psychotics have needs, you know?

We have needs.

We're moving to the next club.

This is gonna take forever.

Well, we could always

put up some flyers.

ANNOUNCER:
Ladies and ladies,

it's that king from Cairo,

the sphinx of kinks,

the sandstorm guaranteed

to blow you away.

Oh!

Get ready to sweat

for the Pharaoh!

(CHEERING)

Didn't see him backstage.

Me likey.

(UPBEAT MUSIC PLAYING)

(WHOOPING)

It's him.

- Banshee! Oh, crap!

- WOMAN:
Where're you going?

Sh*t!

Oh, crap! Oh, crap!

Oh, crap! Oh, crap!

(CHEERING)

(SCREAMING)

(GRUNTS)

Uh. No!

(GROANING)

No! (GRUNTS)

Oh, this is bad.

(GROANS)

(BOOMERANG WHIRRING)

(CHOKING)

(GROANS)

(GRUNTING)

Buddy Frankenstein?

(GROANS LOUDLY)

Whoa!

Zoom, what the hell?

What are you waiting for?

Do I have to do everything?

Hiya, cowboy, need a ride?

(GRUNTING)

Get us out of here!

(GRUNTS)

(STRAINING)

Heads up, mate.

(GROANS)

BOOMERANG:

Ha ha. Right in the gulleys.

(TIRES SCREECHING)

- Something's wrong.

- Yeah, he's too fast for him.

No, he's too slow.

He should've broken into this

jalopy and killed us all by now.

He's still mine.

Frost, on the right!

(YELLS OUT)

(CAR ALARM WAILING)

(GROANING)

MAN:
Pfft. Come on. You don't understand.

I've got a 10:
00 a.m. call back

for Bachelor Babe.

Really? Aw, that's

my favorite show.

It's so romantic like you're

the only girl at a frat party.

Oh, you're not going anywhere,

buddy, until we get some answers.

Like why're you

so popular with Zoom?

How should I know?

I've never even seen the guy.

But you knew Silver Banshee.

The second you saw her,

you bolted.

Yeah, everyone knows who

Silver Banshee is.

Uh, no.

Okay, okay, so we crossed

paths a few times. So what?

Listen to this tosser.

How'd a nobody like you

even get Banshee's attention?

Because I was Fate.

Dr. Fate. I used to be

Dr. Fate, okay?

Shut up.

It's true. It's not like

I was the only one.

There have been a lot of Fates.

Uh, they're chosen by

the spirit of Nabu.

Oh, yeah?

Why'd he choose you?

Uh, why not me?

Six percent body fat,

20 inch guns.

Hell, I even took

a magic class once.

So, I was going strong at the end

of this 10k when I saw it, uh...

him.

And at first,

I thought he was God.

I just couldn't figure

what religion.

And Nabu wasn't much of a talker

but when I had that helmet on,

it was like, I didn't need

to hear him at all.

Like, I knew what to do.

Let me tell you,

I was hella hot.

Superhero-hot.

Banshee was sprung as soon

as she laid eyes on moi.

(SCREECHING)

I mean, come on. Sure she

played hard to get at first.

But I know that

she knew what was up.

Oh, she knew.

Oh, yeah.

She knew.

Oh, my God, they did it.

That was sweet day.

I mean, Nabu hooked me up

with my own place.

Sometimes I'd have to

fight off hell dogs,

and you know,

some crazy demons.

But I spent most of the time

dusting his knick-knacks.

This dude had everything

but a dead monkey.

(SHRIEKS)

But of all the junk,

the thing that Nabu cherished

the absolute most

was the smallest.

A shiny black card.

It had writing on it.

(READING)

LAWTON:
"Get out of hell free?"

It's crazy, I know, I read about

it in one of Nabu's books.

Supposedly, if you have this

card on you when you die,

you bypass hell and

you go straight to heaven.

Oh, like a DFA pass.

- (GROANS)

- Yeah.

A whole lot of blood should we

start to have a card like that.

Yeah, but only one person can

use it, then it's used up.

All I know is that damn card

screwed up my situation for good.

What do you mean?

I'd been there about

two months, and it gets old.

So one evening, I hit this bar

and I meet this redhead.

And she's so hot.

So I said to her...

You don't know it yet, baby,

but you just met your fate.

Cornball? Yes, but it works.

Especially when I bring her

back to my place.

She had this girlfriend

with her, kinda hard and quiet,

not really my type but

they were a package deal.

Like I'm gonna say no to that?

It started off great.

But after a while,

I got a little suspicious

'cause the butch one hadn't

joined in the fun yet.

I mean, who can say no

to all of this. Am I right?

And I catch her red-handed

boosting the freaking card.

I mean, who does that?

(GROANS)

And the only thing they took

was the card.

Everything else was untouched.

Including me.

You think he cared?

(SCREAMS)

He didn't even give me

a chance to explain.

A couple of days later, I called up

my girlfriend, and she was freaking.

She said people were looking

for me, government types.

They were asking about the card.

Like I knew where it was.

Anyway, she blocked me, so I called

up my sidechick, same thing.
