Susan nervously laughs.
GABE:
Ready?
SUSAN:
(scared but tough)
Okay --
Gabe starts to push her out on the line, but she grabs his arm
in a panic.
SUSAN:
I can't --
Susan starts to tilt her head down -- Gabe gently takes hold
of her chin, turning her view up to face him.
GABE:
Yes you can.
(reassuring)
You can do it. Don't look down. The
whole way across, don't look down.
Look at me. Just keep looking at me --
and you'll be okay.
Susan looks at Gabe -- trying to be confident -- nods.
GABE:
Sure?
SUSAN:
Yeah.
(beat)
I have always depended on the kindness
of Rangers.
Gabe grins and gently pushes her out. Susan tentatively pulls
herself across -- then develops a rhythm, building speed --
GABE'S POV - SUSAN
inching away in the harness, looking more confident now --
SUSAN'S POV - GABE
signalling "OK" -- "you're doing fine" --
SUSAN - ANOTHER ANGLE
thirty feet out, going fine --
INSERT -- A HARNESS CLIP
holding the strap under Susan's left leg breaks --
GABE'S POV - SUSAN
The harness completely unravels all at once, its strands
shoot through the clips -- what was a seat has become a trap
door in half a second -- as the harness shoots out from under
her, Susan falls but grabs the harness strand --
HAL:
is helpless, and can only watch as
SUSAN:
too scared to breathe, dangles on the remaining strand of what
used to be the harness -- she sways from the wind and the jerk
of her own weight, her grip loosens --
that is supporting all of Susan's weight is being seriously
tested -- a single knot in the harness has caught there, but
it clearly won't last long --
GABE:
moves back from the ledge.
