CUT TO:

HENRY locking the door.

CUT TO:

BATTS'S INERT FORM -

on the floor.

WE SEE TOMMY unfold the package he had dropped near the

bar.

It is a plastic, flower-printed mattress cover.

TOMMY and JIMMY start putting BAITS's legs into the mattress

cover.

HENRY is standing over them as JIMMY and TOMMY struggle to

fit BAITS' s body into the mattress cover.

HENRY:

What are we going to do with him?

We can't dump him in the street.

JIMMY:

(to Henry)

Bring the car round back. I know a

place Upstate they'll never find

him.

TOMMY is looking brightly at HENRY, as he and JIMMY finally

zip BATTS in the mattress cover.

TOMMY:

I didn't want to get blood on your

floor.

EXT. REAR DRIVEWAY - THE SUITE - NIGHT

Darkness. The open trunk of HENRY 's car. The mattress

cover is being shoved into the trunk by the THREE MEN. It

is heavy work.

HENRY:

Batts's made. His whole crew is

going to be looking for him. This

is f***ing bad.

TOMMY:

There's a shovel at my mother's.

INT. TOMMY'S MOTHER'S HOUSE - KITCHEN - NIGHT

Darkness in the kitchen. We hear noise of doors opening

and tools being banged around in the dark.

TOMMY:

SSHHH. You'll wake 'er up.

Suddenly the light in the entryway goes on, and WE SEE

TOMMY'S MOTHER, in housecoat, beaming at her SON and his

FRIENDS.

CUT TO:

where TOMMY'S MOTHER' hovers over the seated TOMMY, HENRY

and JIMMY. The table is filled with plates and coffee cops

and the debris of dirty dishes.

MOTHER:

(to all)

Have some more. Yon hardly touched

anything. Did Tommy tell you about

my painting? Look.
