HENRY:

(rejoining Jimmy

and Billy Batts at

the bar)

Batts. I'm sorry. Tommy gets

loaded. He doesn't mean any

disrespect.

BATTS:

He's got a hot head.

WE SEE the LAST TWO GUESTS get up to leave. HENRY puts

another dollar in the jukebox and moves back behind the

bar and starts to total the register receipts.

CUT TO:

From HENRY'S POV behind the bar, WE SEE the GUESTS leave

and suddenly WE SEE TOMMY in the doorway. HENRY walks around

the bar and approaches TOMMY.

WE SEE JIMMY and BATTS are still seated at bar with their

backs to the door.

BATTS:

They're f***ing mutts.

WE SEE JIMMY nod.

BUTTS:

I seen them. They walk around

like big shots and they don't know

sh*t.

JIMMY:

A guy gets half a load on. He

mouths off.

BATTS:

When I was a kid, I swear on my

mother, you mouth off, you got

your f***ing legs broke.

CUT TO:

HENRY:

Approaching TOMMY who is carrying a large folded package

under one arm.

TOMMY, followed by HENRY, walks over to the bar where JIMMY

and BILLY BATTS are talking. TOMMY drops the package on

the floor.

BILLY BATTS looks up.

JIMMY turns around and sees that TOMMY has a gun in his

hand.

JIMMY immediately grabs BATTS's arms and WE SEE TOMMY smash

the gun into the side of BATTS's head. WE SEE TOMMY hit

BATTS again and again as JIMMY continues to hold BATTS's

arms.

JIMMY:

(to Henry, while

pinning Batts's

arms)

Quick! Lock the door.

WE SEE TOMMY club BATTS to the ground with JIMMY holding

BATTS's arms.
