CLOSEUP ON JULIUS

And you can see it on his face: He loves it.

JULIUS:

(almost a whisper)

... How wonderful...

44 EXT. HOLLYWOOD - NIGHT 44

Julius, eating a hot dog, is walking along a street in

Hollwyood. In his island peasant garb, he doesn't look

all that unusual considering his surroundings.

But Julius is pretty noticable no matter where he goes.

CUT TO:

TWO HELMETLESS MOTORCYCLISTS

watching Julius. More specifically, they are watching

the expensive-looking leather-edged suitcase he carries in

his hand. They look at the case a moment more, then

Biker #2 gets his MACHINE PURRING softly.

A45 EXT. WINDOW OF FREDERICK'S OF HOLLWYOOD - WINDOW - NIGHT A45

You never saw such lingerie.

PULL BACK to reveal:

Julius, staring at it, shaking his head.

JULIUS:

(to himself)

What an amazing country.

CUT TO:

BIKER #1

ROARING up beside Julius, smiling ingratiatingly.

BIKER #1

Got a light, pal?

JULIUS:

Sorry, but I don't smoke... pal?

Julius thinks he's found a friend.

BIKER #1

(indicating "Fredericks")

Looking for something for your

girl friend?

JULIUS:

I... don't have a girl friend. Do

women really wear these things?

BIKER #1

If you're lucky.

(a beat)

You from out of town? *

A45 CONTINUED:

JULIUS:

Yes, a small island in the South *

Pacific, about 300 nautical miles

south-southwest of Fiji...

Biker #2, bounds along, and when he reaches Julius he

grabs the handle of the leather case that Julius holds,

his plan quite obvious -- to steal the case and disappear

into the crowded street.

Not an original plan, certainly, but one that over and

over again, always works --

CUT TO:

CASE HANDLE:

Julius's hand holds fast to it. Then --

CUT TO:

BIKER #2

As his mouth drops open as we --

CUT TO:

JULIUS:

just sort of standing there, no big deal, not much effort

showing on his face as Biker #2 begins to slowly rise

into the air as he and his cycle are about to be parted

and then --

CUT TO:

CYCLIST #2

still holding to the case as his CYCLE ZOOMS away from

him and for a moment he is flat in mid-air, parallel to

the cement sidewalk and --

CUT TO:

RIDERLESS MOTORCYCLE

ROARING into the crowd and people shriek, dive out of

its way and --

(CONTINUED)

TWINS - 4/14/88 26.

A45 CONTINUED:
(2) A45

CYCLIST #2

falling to the pavement, his head colliding hard and he's

out and --

CUT TO:

RIDERLESS CYCLE:

ending its trip as it collides with a storefront and

collapses on its side, MOTOR still ROARING but no

movement anymore and --

CUT TO:

CYCLIST #1

stunned, going to his unconscious partner.

BIKER #1

(to Julius)

What the hell did you do?

Julius calmly kneels beside the still form. He puts

his case down, and his hands move expertly across the

prone figure.

JULIUS:

I did nothing, the pavement was

his enemy.

CUT TO:

JULIUS:

eyes almost closed as his skilled hands touch the guy a

moment more.

JULIUS:

I would say -- a concussion -- a

mild shoulder separation, and ribs

four to seven are cracked.

Julius rises.

JULIUS:

Get him to a hospital.

And now he picks up his case, starts to go; pauses.

(CONTINUED)

TWINS - 4/14/88 27.

A45 CONTINUED: (3) A45

JULIUS:

And in the future, you should both

consider wearing helmets.

A sweet smile.

48 EXT. HOLLYWOOD STREET - NIGHT 48 *

Vince, approaching his car, sees a motorcycle COP putting

a ticket under his windshield wiper. Vince marches over,

examines the ticket.

VINCE:

Fifty-three dollars? You gotta *

be kidding.

COP:

Your vehicle's in a handicapped

zone.

Vince immediately hunches his shoulder and affects a

limp.

VINCE:

So? Do I look normal to you?
