VINCE:

(moving away)

Call me when you get out, they're

always looking for centers in

Italy...

And as he goes --

CUT TO:

54 INT. JAIL - VISITING ROOM - DAY 54

Julius is already seated in one of the cubicles, separated

by a glass partition from the prisoner's side. This is

a big moment for Julius and he looks around as various

prisoners are brought in --

-- and as a look of pleasure comes across his face --

CUT TO:

GUARD:

leading an attractive, powerful inmate into the room.

The guy is Julius's age.

CUT TO:

JULIUS:

trying to fight his excitement, watching as the prisoner

moves toward him --

-- then past him.

Julius, confused, stares for a moment straight ahead

across the partition, and now he's more confused --

-- because Vince is sitting across from him, dubiously

studying him, arms crossed. There are phones on both

sides of the glass partition. The room, it should be

noted, is busy.

Julius makes a smile.

Vince just stares.

Julius mutters "excuse me" and gets up, goes to a nearby

GUARD.

JULIUS:

(soft)

Excuse me, but I'm looking for

Vincent Benedict.

GUARD:

(pointing to Vince)

You got 'im.

Julius turns, looks at Vince, and as he walks back to his

side of the cubicle and sits, he is overcome with the

wonder of it all.

JULIUS:

(impassioned, but a

bit rambling; his

emotions are in

control)

Vincent... dearest Vincent... I

have rowed halfway across the

world -- no, wrong, I only rowed

one day but I came halfway across *

the world -- I know you don't know

who I am, but believe me when I

say I have been waiting for this *

moment all my life...

It's hard to tell what Vince is feeling but clearly the

look of dubiousness is gone. He picks up the phone on

his side, gestures for Julius to do the same. As Julius

does, Vince at last speaks:

VINCE:

You gotta talk into the phone, *

a**hole.

Julius is confused, momentarily.

JULIUS:

(understands now --

into the phone)

Vincent...

CUT TO:

VINCE:

listening, somewhat amazed. Who is this loony?

JULIUS (V.O.)

... Dearest Vincent...

Vince glances quickly around to see that no one is

listening.

JULIUS (V.O.)

I know you don't know who I am,

but -- I came halfway across the

world --

CUT TO:

TWO OF THEM:

VINCE:

(cutting in)

-- Whoa. I still got another six

hours to pay the money back. You *

tell those crummy Klane brothers

that harassing a man when he's

already in the slammer is beneath

even them --

JULIUS:

(overlapping --

they do this a lot)

-- I don't know any Klane

brothers. I'm your brother,

Julius.

VINCE:

(stopped dead)

Huh? Again?

JULIUS:

I don't know any Klane Brothers.

VINCE:

(wary)

Yeah. Go on -- I got that part.

JULIUS:

My name is Julius -- I'm your

twin brother.

VINCE:

(laughing)

Obviously -- the minute I sat

down I felt like I was looking

in a mirror.

JULIUS:

We're not identical twins.

VINCE:

I wouldn't be too sure.

JULIUS:

(sad)

You don't believe a word I've

said, do you?

VINCE:

-- That's right. I don't believe

a word you said. *

JULIUS:

Vincent, I don't lie. I am your

brother. Let me help you get out *

of here.

VINCE:

(now he's interested)

Oh... you want to help me get

outta here?

JULIUS:

Yes.

VINCE:

Well, money talks, bullshit walks.

JULIUS:

How can bullshit walk? Is that

slang?

VINCE:

(to himself)

I'm in fast company here --

(to Julius)

Listen, you get me outta here,

I'll be whatever you want, best

friend, brother, nephew, niece,

grandma...
