THE MAN:

I don't know.

BACK TO PRESENT INT. COFFEE HOUSE NIGHT

Rocco is looking down in silence.

ROCCO:

Worst day of my life, man.

MURPHY:

(pause)

Well, I'm sold.

CONNOR:

Don't worry, Roc. We'll do this guy

right and you'll feel a lot better.

INT. ROCCO'S MOM'S KITCHEN NEXT DAY 1:00 P.M.

The three burst in, all yelling at each other. They are all

bleeding profusely from gun shot wounds. Connor turns on the

gas stove and slams a new clothing iron down on the burner.

He has wrapped the cord around the handle so it won't burn.

They have all ripped their clothes haphazardly and have made

tourniquets to nurse their wounds.

CONNOR:

Who the f*** was he, Rocco? I know

you f***in' know!

ROCCO:

F*** you! I told you I never saw him

before!

MURPHY:

Well he sure as f*** knew you!

ROCCO:

F*** you both! Ya ask me, he was

aiming at you!

The scene fades into total silence as they viciously argue.

They then take turns hold each other down as they cauterize

their wounds with the hot iron. Two guys will hold a third

down and force a wadded up pillow case in his mouth, as they

burn him

EXT. BOSTON SUBURBAN BEAVER-CLEAVER TYPE HOUSE SAME DAY

5:
00 P.M.

Smecker sits on the balls of his fee on a sprawling front

lawn. He looks out to the street and sees a forensics

technician kneeling before a new, gray Ford Taurus riddled

with bullet holes. The man marks a sea of different-sized

bullet casings that stretch for thirty-five feet down the

sidewalk. He circles two blood stains on the side walk with

orange chalk.

Smecker turns and looks at the front of the house. It is

peppered with bullet holes, all seemingly concentrated on

the front stoop area. Men try to lift blood samples off the

white paint around the door. He stands and Dolly, Duffy and

Greenly are ready with pens and notebooks behind him.

SMECKER:

Okay. Here's what happened.

FLASHBACK INT. PARKED FAMILY VAN SAME DAY NOON

Connor, Murphy and Rocco sit in a parked van, down the street

from the Beaver Cleaver house. The three are sitting next to

each other in the longer back seat. They have a counter in

front of them with all their guns and accessories on it.

The clicking of bullets into clips, and smacking of clips

into guns are heard. Smecker sits in the captain's chair

directly across from them, calmly smoking a cigarette. They

finish their preparation. Rocco holds up his guns.

SMECKER:

They waited in a parked car down the

street for the kid to leave.

Murphy spies a young boy peddling his bike out of the

driveway. He goes to the front of the van.

MURPHY:

There he goes.

(turns back to them,

pulls his guns)

Okay, gentlemen. Are we ready to

bring this man into the light? Are

we ready to truly do the work of the

Lord?

CONNOR:

(c*cks his pistol)

A-f***in'-men!

ROCCO:

This is so f***in' cool!

EXT. SUBURBAN BEAVER CLEAVER TYPE HOUSE DAY

Connor, Murphy, and Rocco make a frenzied exit from the van

and walk across the front lawn, each carrying a black duffle

bag and clutching a mask. The garage is opened a crack.

They pull it up all the way. The sun shines in on Smecker

who stands there smoking.

INT. SUBURBAN "BEAVER CLEAVER" TYPE HOUSE GARAGE DAY

They enter and close the door behind them

SMECKER:

They went in through the garage. The

kid says he leaves it open when he

takes his bike out.

They dive into their bags and suit up with leather gloves,

masks, navy P-coats and their guns.

INT. SUBURBAN "BEAVER CLEAVER" TYPE HOUSE DAY

The three open the door and enter the house and walk

deliberately down the hallway.

SMECKER (V.O.)

Now, they know the wife is the gate

keeper. She knows the code.

EXT. SUBURBAN "BEAVER CLEAVER" TYPE HOUSE BACKYARD DAY

They walk with the terrified woman around the pool to a steel

door pool house entrance. There is a number pad next to the

door. Rocco positions her in front of it.

ROCCO:

Don't f*** with me lady. I'll kill

you.

She slowly punches in the numbers. Smecker is standing there

smoking.

SMECKER:

The wife says she doesn't know what

happened after she hit the code. She

just remembers going down. But,

judging by the burn mark on her back,

I think what they did...

Rocco pulls a stun gun and zaps her with it. She goes down.

SMECKER:

...was use a stun gun on her.

Connor reaches for the knob but Rocco stops him. They wait,

guns drawn and focus on the door knob.
