As Vince approaches a door on which a sign reads:

His door opens and out come two furniture MOVERS with a

desk.

B60 CONTINUED:
B60

VINCE:

What're you doing with my desk?

MOVER:

Taking back the furniture --

you're six months behind.

He opens a desk drawer, pulls out a razor and begins

shaving as he walks into his office.

60 INT. VINCE'S OFFICE 60

Almost nothing is left but the phone on the floor, with

Miss Busby, his secretary, standing by it. Vince is

stunned.

MISS BUSBY:

I tried to stop them, Mr. Benedict --

VINCE:

It was time to redecorate anyway.

The PHONE RINGS -- Miss Busby drops to her knees beside

it.

MISS BUSBY:

(into phone)

Vincent Benedict, Incorporated --

Sports agent, artist's

representative -- import/export --

automobile sales, rentals, and

leasing -- wholesale patio

furniture -- How may I help you?

(listens briefly)

Oh, hi.

(to Vince)

It's Al.

As she hands him the phone.

VINCE:

(taking it, talking

to her, sweetly)

Miss Busby -- Stacy -- this is a

transition period for the

corporation -- Why don't you take

a few days off.

MISS BUSBY:

(a little lost)

... Aah -- all right. Whatever you

say, Mr. Benedict...

MISS BUSBY (CONT'D)

(stops)

Oh, before I forget... Happy

birthday...

She hands him a gift-wrapped present which he opens.

VINCE:

'Aqua-Velva' -- you shouldn't

have --

She takes her purse, smiles, goes. When he's alone,

into phone:

VINCE:

I hope you got some good news, *

Al -- *

CUT TO:

61 INT. AL'S TICKET BOOTH - AL - DAY 61

On the phone in his ticket booth.

AL:

(into phone)

Brand new Caddy on level four.

CUT TO:

62 INT. VINCE'S OFFICE - VINCE - DAY 62

VINCE:

(thrilled)

Great, I'll be right over.

Vince drops to his knees in order to replace the phone

into its receiver. He then scrambles up, straightens his

suit, heads for the door, making sure his pony tail is

perfect.

CUT TO:

63 INT. VINCE'S OFFICE - HALLWAY - EMPTY CORRIDOR OUTSIDE 63

- DAY

As Vince exits, turns, quickly locks the door, turns back

into the corridor just in time for this --

-- A huge fist slams brutally into his stomach. Vince

gags, falls to his knees as we:

PULL BACK to reveal MORRIS KLANE, the biggest of them all,

standing over Vince.

MORRIS KLANE:

Time's up, Vincent -- Got the

money?

(CONTINUED)

TWINS - Rev. 4/15/88 41.

63 CONTINUED:

He bends over, picks Vince up by the neck like a toy doll,

straightens him up briefly, then buries his fist into

Vince's gut. Vince goes down. Harder than last time. *

CUT TO:

VINCE:

In agony, on his knees. It hurts to breath. He finally

manages to look up at the giant --

VINCE:

(gasping)

Did you hit me yet? 'Cause I

didn't feel nothin'.

CUT TO:

MORRIS KLANE:

He grabs Vince again.

MORRIS KLANE:

You gotta understand something,

Benedict -- I like my work.

He pulls Vince groggily up and this time he's going for

Vince's face. He takes his time setting Vince up,

getting his chin at just the right angle. He's concen-

trating on his work, so he doesn't pay much attention to

the fact that the elevator door has opened behind.

Klane draws his fist back and is about to drive it into

Vince's face when he suddenly pauses; the expression on

his face, at first puzzled, becomes increasingly agonized

as we REVEAL that --

JULIUS:

Behind him, is squeezing a pressure point on Klane's

neck, rendering him unable to punch out Vince. Julius

maneuvers the Klane off of Vince and forces him down

onto the floor.

JULIUS:

(quietly)

These are most unfriendly acts you

are committing.

MORRIS KLANE:

(totally surprised)

What?
