OSBORNE:
Hurricane knocked out our Mainframe,
so all we have are their dogtags.
Cadets Raymond Dunbar and Levi Kendall-
HARDY:
Levi? Who names their kid Levi
OSB0RNE
Senator Jonathan Kendall, of Ohio.
HARDY:
Christ... Remind me to thank Bill
for mentioning that on the phone-
OSBORNE:
Kendall Junior is still in surgery,
so he won't be available to answer
for his name or anything else for
another hour - the cadet we're talking
to first is Dunbar.
HARDY:
He's in interrogation?
OSBORNE:
Yes.
HARDY:
Move him.
10.
OSBORNE:
Why?
HARDY:
Because interrogation rooms look
suspiciously like interrogation rooms,
which doesn't exactly put people at
ease. Is he cute?
OSBORNE:
Excuse me?
HARDY:
Is Dunbar cute?
OSBORNE:
(pissed)
That is the most unprofessional-
HARDY:
Is he handsome, self assured, carry
himself well, does he look you in
the eyes or down at the floor, does
he have good bones, suggesting good
breeding, does he slouch or sit up
straight - these are important
questions, as they reveal a great
deal about this man's character so
please get over yourself for two and
a half seconds and tell me is he
cute?
Osborne stares at him. She finally nods.
HARDY:
Thank you. At some point in there
I'm gonna rub my nose. When I do,
go at him with everything you got.
OSBORNE:
Good cop/bad cop?
HARDY:
Something like that.
She starts to go make preparations.
HARDY:
Oh, and Osborne? You have any donuts
around here?
INT. FORT MCKINLEY -- CORRIDOR -- MORNING
As two M.P.'s escort RAYMOND DUNBAR (the "Bigger Man") into
11.
A small cluttered room with the shades drawn. A folding
table has been set up in the middle of it with a chair on
each side. Dunbar takes a seat in the far chair. Takes in
his surroundings as the MP's leave, locking the door.
INT. FORT MCKINLEY -- CORRIDOR - MORNING
Hardy and Osborne head towards the Coffee Room.
OSBORNE:
I questioned him for three hours and
he didn't make a sound. You don't
have a badge, he won't talk to you.
HARDY,
Ten bucks says I have him talking in
under three minutes.
Osborne starts the timer on her digital watch.
OSBORNE:
Go.
Dunbar looks up as they enter. Hardy smiles, cheerily.
HARDY:
Cadet Dunbar, good morning! I'm Tom
Hardy and I believe you've already
met Officer Osborne. I understand
you had a rough time of it last night?
No response. Hardy takes a seat across from the cadet.
HARDY:
Not talking, huh? You probably just
want to get some food and some sleep.
They feed you yet?
No response. Hardy reaches into his pocket. Pulls out a
DONUT.
