Hellbound: Hellraiser II Page #4

KIRSTY:

I thought Steve had talked

to you?

RONSON:

Oh, pardon me. I obviously didn't

convey my hesitation to take his

story at face-value. No, YOU

talk to me. But - do me a favor? -

none of this DEMONS crap.

KIRSTY closes her eyes, almost wincing, as memory comes.

KIRSTY opens her eyes. Consciously, she slows the rhythm of the

dialogue down.

KIRSTY:

He talked about Demons, huh?

RONSON:

Yeah.

KIRSTY turns her head to look directly at RONSON.

KIRSTY:

It's true. All of it. It's all true.

RONSON stares at her, impressed by her conviction and intensity.

There is a second of shared silence.

Suddenly, a shocking ELECTRONIC CRACKLE shatters the mood. RONSON

starts, then realises it is the radio at his belt. He snatches it

up and speaks into it.

RONSON:

Ronson.

10 INT BEDROOM LODOVICO STREET NIGHT

Another OFFICER, KUCICH, is standing, radio in hand, by the

blood-stained mattress. CORTEZ stands beside him, gun now safely

re-holstered.

KUCICH:

Kucich here,sir. We just found another one,

though it suffered a little...

KUCICH looks at CORTEZ, who looks embarrassed.

KUCICH:

...er, accidental damage in discovery.

Anyway, just about the only portable

evidence we've got here - apart from

human remains - is the mattress. Looks

like someone was messed up real bad

on it.

11 INT HOSPITAL ROOM NIGHT

KUCICH:

(off-camera)

Can we send it downtown?

RONSON throws KIRSTY a look of exasperation with his colleague.

The camera stays on KIRSTY's face as RONSON speaks.

RONSON:

What the hell are you asking me

for? Tag it. Move it.

KIRSTY (to herself)

The mattress... The mattress... JULIA.

Without waiting for a reply, RONSON switches the radio off and

clips it back to his belt.

12 INT BEDROOM 55 STREET NIGHT

We are looking at the mattress. KUCICH has left the room.

CORTEZ draws a pad from his packet. The pad is stapled, and

the staple has been badly inserted and is not closed property.

In the act of tearing a label from the pad, CORTEZ catches

his thumb on the staple.
