Die Hard: With A Vengeance Page #2

Synopsis: John McClane is now almost a full-blown alcoholic and is suspended from the NYPD. But when a bomb goes off in the Bonwit Teller Department Store the police go insane trying to figure out what's going on. Soon, a man named Simon calls and asks for McClane. Simon tells Inspector Walter Cobb that McClane is going to play a game called "Simon Says". He says that McClane is going to do the tasks he assigns him. If not, he'll set off another bomb. With the help of a Harlem electrician, John McClane must race all over New York trying to figure out the frustrating puzzles that the crafty terrorist gives him. But when a bomb goes off in a subway station right by the Federal Reserve (the biggest gold storage in the world) things start to get heated.

Uncle, you better

come look at this.

What?

A white man

in the street.

I've seen one.

Not like this.

Dial 911.

Tell the police

to get up here quick.

Somebody's about

to get killed.

And get your butts to school.

You hear me?

Yeah.

All right.

Back off, man.

Morning.

Good morning.

ZEUS:

You havin' a nice day, sir? You feelin'

alright? Not to get too personal, but a

white man in Harlem wearin' a sign that

says "I HATE NIGGAS" has either got serious

personal issues or not all his dogs are barkin'.

McClane yawns

ZEUS:

Hey! I'm talkin' to you! You got about 10

seconds before those guys see you and

when they do, they will KILL you. You

understand? You are about to have a very

bad day.

Tell me about it.

Sir, this is a police matter.

For your own safety-

Damn right

it's a police matter.

I suggest you hide

your butt in my shop

till the police

get here.

BLACK MAN #1 (O.S.)

WHAT THE F***?!

ZEUS:

Aw sh*t.

Listen, I'm a cop.

I'm on a case.

Somebody blew up Bonwit Teller's

an hour ago.

Did you hear

about that?

Same a**hole that did that

said I got to do this

or he's going to blow up

something else.

You should get

across the street.

Start acting crazy,

like loony tunes,

like Bellevue.

Hey, Zeus.

This your friend?

He look like

a friend of mine?

I think the dude just escaped

from some hospital,

you know,

like Bellevue?

I am the...

voice of my own God.

I told the librarian

that I had a bad headache,

but she didn't

believe me.

I really do have a bad headache,

a very bad headache!

My head does not-

Shut the f*** up!

You've made

a very bad mistake.

Bouya his ass.

Ha ha ha!

Ha ha!

Cut that sh*t off.

BLACK MAN #2

Fellas, fellas. Nature boy here hates niggas.

What are we gonna do about that?

Hold up, hold up,

hold up!

Oh, sh*t!

Back! Back up!

Back the f*** up!

Now!

Come on, man,

get up.

Get out of here!

Stop the cab-

stop the goddamn cab!

Don't shoot me!

Get up! Come on, get up!

Back off.

I mean it!

I don't want to,

but I will.

Go, go!

Get the f***

out of here!

Don't stop. Don't stop.

Just keep driving.

Run the red light!

Here, man.

That's all I got.
