The Dark Knight Rises Page #6
INSERT CUT:
Alfred spots a couple at another table and lookscloser, hopeful. But they are strangers.
I never wanted you to come back to
Gotham. I knew there was nothing
there for you but pain and tragedy,
and I wanted more for you than
that. I still do.
Alfred leaves Wayne to his cave. His bats.
EXT. WATER TREATMENT FACILITY - DAY
Blake and his partner, Ross, get out of their patrol car. A
DWP Man leads them down a long concrete trough.
DWP MAN:
They wash up a couple times a
month. More when in gets colder -
homeless sheltering in the tunnels.
We had to pull him to clear the
basin, but other than that we
didn't touch him...
21.
They come out by the catchment basin. Above the grille lies
a body - a teenage boy. Blake looks down at him. Freezes.
ROSS:
What?
BLAKE:
Name's Jimmy. He's at St.
Swithin's. (Off look.) The boys
home where I...I coach some ball.
EXT. ST. SWITHIN'S HOME FOR BOYS - DAY
Blake looks up at the shabby building.
INT. ST. SWITHIN'S HOME FOR BOYS - MOMENTS LATER
Blake is talking to Father Reilly.
FATHER REILLY:
Jimmy hadn't been here for months.
BLAKE:
Why?
FATHER REILLY:
You know why, Blake - he aged out.
We don't have the resources to keep
boys on after sixteen -
BLAKE:
The Wayne Foundation gives money
for that -
FATHER REILLY:
Not for two years now.
BLAKE:
He has a brother here, right?
FATHER REILLY:
Mark. I'll tell him.
BLAKE:
I'd like to, if that's okay.
22.
EXT. PLAYGROUND, ST. SWITHIN'S - MOMENTS LATER
Father Reilly watches as Blake sits with Mark - ten.
BLAKE:
I'm sorry.
Mark nods slowly. Staring straight ahead.
BLAKE:
What was he doing in the tunnels?
MARK:
Lot of guys been going down the
tunnels when they age out. Say you
can live down there. Say there's
work down there.
BLAKE:
What kind of work are you gonna
find in the sewers?
MARK:
More than you can find up here, I
guess.
Blake considers this. Troubled.
INT. DIVE BAR - NIGHT
Selina Kyle, in a little black dress, walks in with a drunk
in a Hawaiian shirt. She sits him on a bar stool - walks
over to a table where a neatly dressed man, Stryver, sits.
STRYVER:
You brought a date?
SELINA:
I like having someone around to
open doors for me.
Selina glances around. Things scattered throughout the bar.
Jumpy. Selina hands an envelope to Stryver.
SELINA:
Right hand. No partials.
Stryver slides a transparency out of the envelope. Holds it
up to the light. Four perfect fingerprint transfers.
23.
STRYVER:
Very nice.
He pockets the envelope.
SELINA:
Not so fast, handsome. You got
something for me?
STRYVER:
Oh, yes.
Stryver signals a Thug who locks the door. Another Thug
joins them at the table. Selina smiles.
SELINA:
I don't know what you're going to
do with Mr. Wayne's prints...but
I'm guessing you'll need his thumb.
As Stryver checks the envelope again -
SELINA:
You don't count so good, huh?
STRYVER:
I count fine.
The Second Thug puts a gun to Selina's head.
STRYVER:
In fact, I'm counting to ten right
now...
Selina looks in his eyes. The Thug c*cks his gun. She
blinks.
SELINA:
Okay, okay -
She reaches for her purse. The Thug stops her, reaches in
himself - pulls out a cellphone. Slides it across the table.
SELINA:
My friend is waiting outside. Just
hit 'send'...
Stryver looks at the phone. Hits 'send'. Selina sizes up her
options. A knock on the door. Second Thug hides his gun. The
door opens - a young woman, Jen. She enters, cheerful, spots
Selina. Pulls out an envelope, looks around.
24.
JEN:
Place is a little dead.
SELINA:
(takes envelope, tense)
It'll liven up in a minute, trust
me.
JEN:
Everything okay?
SELINA:
Great. Catch you later.
Jen leaves. Stryver checks the envelope. Satisfied.
SELINA:
It would've been a lot easier to
just give me what we agreed.
STRYVER:
We can't have loose ends. And even
in that dress, no one's going to
miss you.
