Argo Page #4
They walk west. They.’re hurrying but taking care not to
run. The five can hear the gunfire and shouting in
Farsi. They walk up the street, away from the sounds of
the protest, instinctively grouping together. Cora looks
back.
BOB ANDERS:
Keep going.

46 INT. STATE DEPARTMENT HALL - SEVENTH FLOOR - NIGHT 46
Halfway around the world, hell has broken loose here,
too. BATES and MALICK, 30s, State Department mid-level
aides. A cascade of voices and energy -- a reverberation
from the embassy siege -- the building exploding into a
crisis center.
BATES:
These fucks can hit us, we
can.’t hit back?
MALICK:
Mossadeq. We did it to
them first.
BATES:
You think the Russians would put
up with this? They.’d f***ing
invade --
ROBERT PENDER, 40s, joins them heading down the hall.
They.’ve all gotten the same call to get to the
Secretary.’s office. PETER GENCO, late 20s, behind.
MALICK:
What did you expect? We
helped a guy torture and deball
an entire population --
PENDER:
(turning behind him)
Schafer! Schafer!
BRICE:
At least 60. Could be a hundred.
GENCO:
(catching up to them)
You still haven.’t found Schafer?
PENDER:
(to Genco)
No, I was screaming his name
.‘cause I was f***ing him.
HAL SAUNDERS, late 40s, Assistant Secretary of State for
Near Eastern Affairs, perpetually stressed, coming out of
his office, out of breath --
ARGO - Final 10.
40 CONTINUED:

SAUNDERS:

I was told five.
BATES:

What happened?
PENDER:
Not clear. We know they escaped
the embassy.
VANCE:
Where are they?

BATES:
Are we attempting rescue?
BRICE:
Hold for the Secretary --
VANCE:
(handed another
phone)
-- there.’s no one -- this is he...
