Synopsis: With innocent victims caught in the crossfire in Los Angeles' intensifying war on crime, both cop John Spartan (Sylvester Stallone) and violent thug Simon Phoenix (Wesley Snipes) are sentenced to a state of frozen incarceration known as "CryoPrison." When Spartan is finally thawed 36 years later, it's 2032, and Los Angeles is now a pacifist utopia called San Angeles. But with Phoenix again on the loose, Spartan must team up with future cop Lenina (Sandra Bullock) to apprehend the killer.

INT. FORTRESS - MAIN BUILDING - THIRD FLOOR - NIGHT

Stacked with armaments and stolen goods. M70's straight

outta the National Guard Armory. Crates of ammo. Stacks

of looted Sony HoloSets still in the boxes.

Spartan makes his way carefully along. Ready. Spins at

a SOUND. Nothing there. Spartan crouches low. Slips

around the crates. At the far end, a very large guard

is doing just the same thing to peer at where Spartan

just was.

Spartan launches himself at the guard. Hammers his head

against the floor. This guy is not getting up again for

a long time. Spartan spins at a SOUND. Another equally

large guard dives on Spartan from behind. He never makes

contact. Spartan uses his momentum to fling him past and

into the wall. This guy isn't getting up again in the

near future either. Now the room is clear. Moves

towards the stairs.

INT. FORTRESS - MAIN BUILDING - SECOND FLOOR - NIGHT

SIMON PHOENIX snorts a long pale blue line up one

nostril. A long pink line up the other. One blue eye,

one brown eye. Blond hair. Black skin. Looks up at

another thug. Punches up the security cams on half a

dozen slightly futuristic monitors. Unconscious guards

can be seen on all of them. And on the last, Spartan,

coming... Phoenix jabs a loaded orange syringe into an

arm. The drugs all hit various lobes.

PHOENIX:

Motherf***er.

INT. FORTRESS - MAIN BUILDING - STAIRWELL - NIGHT

Spartan creeps quietly down. Looking, watching,

listening. Suddenly, the stairs are racked with MACHINE

GUN FIRE. Chips of concrete fly from around his feet.

Spartan flattens against the wall. Half a beat. Steps

out FIRING. The machine gun stops. A body plummets by

down the center shaft of the stairs.

SPARTAN:

That's a warm welcome.

INT. FORTRESS - MAIN BUILDING - SECOND FLOOR - NIGHT

Phoenix is dumping can after can of gas all over the

floor, the walls, everything.

ANOTHER ANGLE - STAIRWELL AND LANDING

Spartan steps onto the landing. Checks high and low.

Room is clear. He can smell the gas.

BACK TO PHOENIX:

Simon pries open the fuse box. Flips off all the

breakers. Building is plunged into darkness.

BACK TO SPARTAN:

Spartan quietly speaks into the LAPD button mike on his

lapel.
