Batman and Robin Page #3

---

56FREEZE'S GLOVE - CLOSE. The diamond HITS. A perfect

catch.

FREEZE:

Thanks for playing.

57Freeze drops into the cab of his giant drilling truck.

The hatch starts to slide closed.

58BATMAN

Round up the thugs. I'll get Freeze.

59/60 Batman leaps onto the banister, slides standing down the

rail and jumps, dropping into the closing hatch after

Freeze.

61INT. DRILLING TRUCK - CONTROL CAPSULE

A bank of control panels are set inside the giant glass

head of the drill. Batman falls in to find Freeze standing

at the main console.

BATMAN:

Stop the insanity.

FREEZE:

Nice of you to drop in.

Freeze hits a button. A tremendous ROAR.

62INT. MUSEUM

The capsule, set on the end of an ejection cylinder,

BLASTS out of the drilling truck, rising like a rocket

towards the roof.

63ROBIN jumps on another banister, slides down, grabs a

banner and swings himself onto the side of the cylinder,

clutching a porthole ledge and hanging fast.

64EXT. GOTHAM MUSEUM

The capsule BLOWS through the top of the museum, ROCKETING

towards the starry night sky above.

65ZOOM IN. Robin clings to the side of the rocket for dear

life.

66INT. CAPSULE

Batman is thrown to the floor by the powerful

acceleration. Freeze stays upright, protected by his

mighty suit.

BATMAN:

You were a great scientist once.

Don't squander your genius on evil.

FREEZE:

I hate being lectured.

67Freeze throws Batman, hard, into the bulkhead, uses his

pistol, to FREEZE Batman's ankles and wrists to the wall

in chunks of ice.

FREEZE:

Watch the numbers, Batman. For they

are the harbingers of your doom.

68ALTIMETER CLOSE. 10,000 feet and climbing fast.

FREEZE:

Can you feel it coming? The icy cold

of space. At 30,000 feet your heart

will freeze and beat no more.

THE ALTIMETER CLOSE. 15,000 feet and rising.

69EXT. CAPSULE

Robin has climbed onto the nose-cone. Is struggling

against the acceleration, using bat-magnets to crawl

towards the escape hatch.

70INT. CAPSULE

Freeze steps into a glide-wing backpack mounted on the wall.

FREEZE:

After you have frozen, your icy tomb

will plummet back to Gotham.

BATMAN:

Freeze, you're mad. This capsule

will slaughter thousands.

Freeze releases the door behind him, the sky WHIPPING past

beyond.

FREEZE:

Ain't it grand? Freeze well.

Freeze leaps out into the night.

71EXT. NIGHT SKY

Freeze begins to plummet towards the lights of Gotham

below.

72FREEZE'S BACKPACK - CLOSE. A sleek wing extends from its

housing. Freeze angles himself downward in mid air, using his

glide wing to control his fast flight towards the distant city.
