YORGI:

That was for Anders.

XANDER:

Don't forget goatee boy. I greased

him up on the diamond run.

Yorgi punches him again.

INT. CASTLE - MAIN BUILDING - DAY

Petra sits at a desk working on a LAPTOP. Yorgi enters with

Xander and Kirill.

YORGI:

Look who we found playing outside.

Petra looks up. She can barely hide her shock.

YORGI:

Petra, my sweet dove, do you notice

anything strange about X? He looks

slightly less than dead.

Kirill aims his gun at Petra.

PETRA:

Yorgi, I thought he was --

Yorgi SLAPS her.

YORGI:

Do you think I didn't know about you

all along? My contacts in the KGB

told me you were coming. You show up

undercover and, I must admit, you

play your part to the hilt. When

it's time to be cruel, you are cruel.

When it's time to be passionate, you

are very very passionate indeed.

Petra is devastated by this revelation.

YORGI:

I could have killed you, but I thought

this would be so much more fun. To

twist you and use you how I see fit.

And to be honest, you went much

farther than I ever expected you

would for your country.

He runs this fingers through her hair and moves on to Xander.

YORGI:

And you. Why do you have such a

problem staying away, my friend? Did

you miss us that much?

XANDER:

I wanted to get the hell out of Prague

before Silent Night falls.

YORGI:

Not bad, man, not bad. You put things

together quick. Prague it is.

PETRA:

The Peace conference...

YORGI:

Nice place to start, don't you think?

XANDER:

What's the gimmick, Yorgi? That's

the part I don't get. You gonna hold

the world hostage with your gas bombs?

I didn't think you were dumb enough

to go with that hack cliche.

YORGI:

You think I'm after money? I told

you, my friend. Anarchy. Time for a

change. Money is good, but for true

freedom you have to get rid of the

rules themselves.

XANDER:

So all by yourself, you're going to

destroy every government; in the

world.

YORGI:

Easier than that, buddy. I'll get

them to destroy each other. You kill

an entire Peace conference, someone

is going to have to pay. Then our

friend Ahab continues down the river

to the ocean and begins his world

tour. London, Cairo, Beijing... Pretty

soon everyone's involved. These guys

bomb those guys, those guys invade

these guys. Soon the whole world is

like your wild West cowboy days. No

rules, no law, everybody free to do

what they want.

XANDER:

Including rape, pillage, murder.

YORGI:

Sure, if that's what you want. Why

not? It's all human nature. So we

just have to launch our baby and

wait for the decline and fall of

civilization as we know it.

XANDER:

And here I thought "anarchy" was

just something cool to put on a

Tshirt.

YORGI:

Come on, Xander. You used to stand

for something. What happened to you,

man? I thought you'd get it.

PETRA:

Don't you see, X? For the betterment

of humanity, he's going to start

World War Three.

XANDER:

He's a regular humanitarian. And all

this time I thought he was just a

tool.

YORGI:

You both could have been a part of

it. You could have ridden with us

into a new day, the dawning of a new

age of --

XANDER:

Oh just shoot us already. I'm sorry

I asked.

Yorgi's eye twitches.

YORGI:

Screw you too, buddy.

He raises his gun and suddenly BOOOOOM! A massive explosion

rocks the whole castle. Shrapnel shatters the windows,

spraying glass, and Yorgi's shot goes wide.

EXT. THE CASTLE - DAY

The front gates have just been blown apart. Through the smoke

and wreckage come Ivans 1 & 2 with a PLATOON OF CRACK CZECH

SECRET POLICE. Their submachine guns rattle in threeshot

bursts, sweeping Guards from the parapets.

INT. CASTLE - MAIN BUILDING - DAY

Kirill looks down at the carnage below. Xander takes advantage

of the distraction and charges at Yorgi.

Yorgi goes to shoot but his hand won't work. There's a HUGE

SHARD OF GLASS sticking through his forearm.

By the time he pulls it out, Xander is on top of him. He

body checks Yorgi, sending him flying over a desk. Kirill

spins and starts FIRING. Xander ducks for cover.

EXT. THE CASTLE - DAY

The Czech Secret Police are having their way. They cross the

courtyard and burst into the main building.

INT. CASTLE - MAIN BUILDING - DAY

The Police whip through the building like lightening, mowing

down everyone in their path.

One Czech Secret Policeman is wounded and the others retaliate

with a volley of RPG's that evaporates a pocket of resistance.

In the main room upstairs, Kirill is blasting away. Yorgi

starts rounding up the computer gear.

YORGI:

Hurry up, kill him!

Before Kirill can do so, Cops burst into the room, spraying

bullets everywhere.

Xander and Petra are pinned down, but Yorgi and Kirill manage

to make a fast exit out another door.

XANDER:

Hey! We're on your side!

The Cops keep shooting.

EXT. CASTLE - COURTYARD - DAY

Ivan 1 is talking on the radio when Yorgi appears behind him

and shoots him in the back.

They step over him and enter a GARAGE.

INT. CASTLE - GARAGE - DAY

The Ahab device is in the back of a flatbed TRUCK. Yorgi and

Kirill start up the truck and jam it into gear.

EXT. CASTLE - COURTYARD - DAY

The truck smashes through the garage doors and rumbles across

the courtyard.

Police open fire, but the truck tears out the gate and starts

heading down the mountain.

INT. CASTLE - MAIN BUILDING - DAY

Meanwhile, Xander and Petra are still pinned down.

XANDER:

Petra! Tell them something!

Petra starts calling out in RUSSIAN. Finally the cops stop

shooting.

EXT. CASTLE - COURTYARD - DAY

Xander and Petra are brought outside. They see the Police

working on the wounded Ivan 1. Ivan 2 walks up.

XANDER:

How's Ivan?

IVAN 2

He is okay.

XANDER:

Thanks for coming, man, you guys

were right on time.

IVAN 2

We are always on time. Two have

escaped, in truck.

PETRA:

Yorgi and Kirill.

XANDER:

Let me guess, they had a big white

torpedo with them.

IVAN 2

Yes. Your friend, the angry one, he

send something for you.

EXT. CASTLE - DAY

A big truck pulls to a stop. Its ramp lowers and Xander's

blown-out '72 GTO comes rolling out.

IVAN 2

We'll be right behind you.

Xander and Petra both strap on grenades and pistols.

XANDER:

Did you do your homework?

PETRA:

(nods)

If they launch it, I know how to

bring it back.

XANDER:

Let's do this.

They both climb in and the GTO peels out.

EXT. MOUNTAIN ROAD - DAY

Xander drives all out, trying hard to catch up.

He passes several of Ivan's Police Jeeps at a furious clip.

Up ahead they see the truck winding it's way down the

mountain.

XANDER:

Where's he headed?

PETRA:

He owns a big industrial complex on

the river. He'll launch it from there.

Xander floors it.

Up ahead, in the flatbed truck, Yorgi drives. He can see the

GTO gaining on them.

YORGI:

(in Russian, subtitled)

They're coming! Get back there.

Kirill loads his sniper rifle and climbs out of the cab. He

lays down, resting the rifle on the Ahab container.

As the GTO comes into view, he sights up and FIRES, WHACK!

The first shot goes clean through the windshield and blows

the headrest off Xander's seat.

XANDER:

You get down! I'll take care of this

fool!
