The Spearhead Effect Page #4

That was nice.

It was real nice, young man.

That was real nice.

So...

let me go.

[laughs]

[man] We have to verify

the information first.

We can't just have you

going out.

Warning Mr. Redhat, can we...

[grunting]

You'll tell the police, right?

You'll tell them that I cooperated.

Maybe they'll help me

get a job, you know.

[man] Oh, he's gonna do it.

He's gonna do it.

Oh, yeah!

[cheering]

[indistinct muttering]

[whimpering]

[screaming]

[water flowing]

[knocking at door]

- Jake?

- Yeah.

You all right?

Fine. Yeah.

I tried to tell Evan that you

wouldn't want to be a part of this.

It's not that simple.

Maybe it's like you

said in the interview, huh?

You can do more work

without a mask.

I mean if people found out

that you were there tonight,

it would destroy everything

you've accomplished.

People are desensitized.

It would take me doing

something really f***ed up

to get them to change

their mind now.

Go back to trusting

the police.

Maybe if I...

filleted someone...

or burned someone

alive, then maybe, but...

even still, as long

as you were guilty.

Yeah, but why risk it?

You know, what if you just kept doing

your thing, and we'll do ours,

and just pretend

you never saw anything.

Evan.

- What's up?

- All right. Give it in.

- How was that for inspiration, huh?

- Yeah.

Little better than sitting by

the computer screen all day.

- It's different.

- Yeah, it's different.

I mean, sh*t, you inspired it,

but now you're part of it.

Wasn't I already?

Yeah, but those

were just words.

Words are meaningless

without action.

You guys certainly have

the action part down, huh?

We're f***ing nobodies.

All right, you, you got

an audience, a vision.

With us, you could be the

one to change everything.

Why did you slash his eye?

What?

He gave you the information

that you wanted,

you didn't need

to slash his eye.

Okay, so maybe I got

a little carried away

but don't tell me you're

feeling sorry for the guy.

- No.

- If you don't want to be a part of this,

- then I guess we're just...

- I didn't say that, okay.

All right.

We just got a sick f***

off the street.

Next up is this red-hat guy,

we're gonna have the whole

operation under water.

Yeah, can't argue

with the results.

If you're gonna talk

during the meetings,

you need to be strong,

assured,

none of this...

pitter-patter bullshit,

- you know what I mean?

- Yeah.

You need presence.

Give it a shot.

Now?

Yeah, just... you know,

try a few things out.

Well, what am I

supposed to say?

I can't tell you that.

Either tell me

what I want to hear...

You got to convince

yourself first.

- Okay? Hey, look at me.

- [clears throat]

Those things that you

push under the surface,

just let 'em come out.

All right?

Just give him some space.

[whispers] F*** you.

[sighs] F*** you.

You think the police

can help you now?

Do you think

I give a f***,

what the cops say?

I am the new law.

I am the one that you

will beg for your life.

And assuming that

I let you keep it,

I am the one that you

will pray to never see again.

Everytime you open your eyes

assuming I let you keep

them in your f***ing skull.

I am the one

with the power now.

I am the one that

can make it all happen,

I am the one that will

change everything!

I am the one that

is the guardian!

I want you to beg

for your f***ing life!

Because you deserve to die

for what you did!

[water flowing]

[sighs]

[Jake] So we just wait

for this guy now?

No, we split up.

All right, Daniel,

you take the boardwalk.

I'll take the parking lot,

you got the arcade.

Think he'll be armed?

He's a kiddy porn peddler, for

God' sake, not Tony Montana.

Yeah, it's a valid question.

Look, if this scares you...

Fine.

I know you aren't.

So f***ing act like it.

[carnival music playing]

[cell phone vibrating]

Coming through.

Excuse me.

[panting]

Daniel!

Evan!

Daniel, Evan, he's up here.

He's up here.

I think I got him.

[grunts]

[geunting]

[Evan] Hey.

Jake. Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.

Holy sh*t, man.

[muttering]

Where the f***

were you guys?

We thought he

was coming around the...

- I guess not.

- Where are your f***ing badges, man, huh?

Aren't you guys gonna

read me my rights?

Yeah. You got the right

to shut the f*** up.

Now, what have you

got for us, huh?

What have you got for us?

What's this, huh?

[keys jangling]

They're not mine, man.

You do the honors.

[grunts]

[gasping]

What are we

gonna do with him?

[Jake] What's that smell?

[man] You'll see.

[Evan] Who are we going after now?

The guy he's reporting to?

[Evan] Don't worry about it.

The camera.

[man] It's on.

[Jake] You guys post any

of these videos online yet?

[Daniel] No, we're waiting

for the big finale.

- What do you mean big...

- [Evan] All right, all right, let's get started.

Who's missing?

[man] Can't a guy get

a smoke break around here?

[panting]

Wha...

What the f***, man!

[Evan] You're not used to being on the

other side of the camera, are you?

Wait a minute.

Let's discuss this, all right?

Clearly you guys think I did something.

I don't know what it is.

But whatever you think it is,

- I promise you it's not...

- [man 1] Oh, not, not.

Not, not, not what we think,

not profiting

from the defilement of this.

You're wrong. You're wrong.

That guy attacked me.

I just panicked.

You saying you wouldn't

do the same thing

if it happened to you,

you wouldn't defend yourself?

He just came at me, man.

[Evan] Why do you

think that is?

I don't know what the f***

you're talking about,

- but whatever it is...

- [Evan] We can't prove, right?

Anything we found

in truck of your car,

someone else

put it there, right?

Oh, yeah. Sounds right.

[Evan] Well, if the cops ask,

maybe we put it there.

[man 1] Must be us.

Brain juice, so we could

get our rocks off.

[man 2] Oh, I'm hard, baby,

I'm hard.

Have a chance to work

off the little streaks.

- Yeah, get it out.

- That sound about right?

Yeah, sure.

Let's just speak

about this, okay?

We'll have a discussion,

man to man.

[Evan] "Man to man."

You think

you're a f***ing man?

You think we all can do

what you do?

[man] Come on, man, answer.

[Evan] You don't even

deserve to speak.

[man] Here we go.

- Come on, now.

- Cat got your tongue?

[Jake] I don't think we need a

confession from this guy, okay,

we have everything

we need in the trunk.

[Daniel] You really

wanna risk that?

What the f*** are you

doing with that?

No, no, no, what

are you doing?

What are you

doing with that?

No. No, no. [screams]

Evan, this isn't on our menu,

okay, I just...

No one's here

to play kit kat.

[screams]

[man] Tough squirt.

[groans]

[laughing]

[man] Check it out.

[Evan] Ah, just

another scratch.

- I... I...

- What's that?

You have something you'd like

to get off your chest, huh?

[coughs]

Hey, give me that.

Give me!

Hey, you want to try?

- All right.

- No, no, no, no.
