Natural Born Killers Page #2

---

Mickey turns to Mallory. She's sitting on top of Otis,

slamming his head repeatedly on the floor.

MICKEY:

Honey.

Mallory looks up at Mickey. She gets off Otis and moves

to Mickey's side.

Mickey trains his .45 on pinball cowboy, who's shaking

in his cowboy boots. Mickey aims at Mabel, who's

clutching her coffee pot, crying.

MICKEY:

(to Mallory)

Pick one.

Mallory does eanie, meanie, minie, moe, pointing back

and forth from Mabel to pinball cowboy.

MALLORY:

Eanie, meanie, minie, moe, catch

a n*gger by the toe. If he

hollars, let him go. Eanie,

meanie, minie, moe. My mom told

me to pick the best one and you

are it.

She ends, pointing at Mabel. Mabel's crying. She

screams:

MABEL:

No!

Mickey FIRES the .45. The BULLET CHINKS through the

coffee pot Mabel's holding and explodes, thunking her in

the chest. She hits the floor dead.

Mickey and Mallory join hands and walk over to the

pinball cowboy, who stands in a pool of his own urine.

MALLORY:

When you tell people what went

on here, tell 'em Mickey and

Mallory Knox did this. Understand?

(CONTINUED)

CONTINUED:

Pinball cowboy nods yes.

The two killers plant a big wet kiss on each other's

mouths. Then, holding hands, Mickey and Mallory walk out

of the cafe.

CREDIT SEQUENCE.

INT. COUPE DE VILLE -MOVING -DAY

Mickey and Mallory in a flashy '68 Cadillac Coupe De

Ville. Duane Eddy's "REBEL ROUSER" BLARES on the

SOUNDTRACK. The b.g. is an outrageous PROCESS SHOT.

The TITLES SPLASH OVER this image '50s-style.

When this sequence is over, we:

CUT TO BLACK.

END CREDIT SEQUENCE.

OVER BLACK SCREEN, we hear:

CAPTAIN SQUERI (V.O.)

Send Scagnetti in here.

FADE IN:

INT. POLICE STATION -SQUERI'S OFFICE -DAY

CAMERA is positioned in the middle of the office. The

door is in the middle of the FRAME.

JACK SCAGNETTI flings the door open and steps inside

Squeri's office. Squeri's never seen.

SCAGNETTI:

You wanted to see me, Capt'n?

CAPTAIN SQUERI (O.S.)

Scagnetti, go up to interrogation

room C. Dewight McClusky, chairman

of the prison board, is waiting to

meet you. You're gonna deliver

two prisoners from the county jail

to Nystrom Insane Asylum in

Bakersfield.

SCAGNETTI:

This is bullshit. I'm a detective.

You want an errand boy, call Jerry

Lewis.

(CONTINUED)

7.

CONTINUED:

Scagnetti spins around and leaves the room, slamming the

door shut behind him. Captain Squeri shouts after him.

CAPTAIN SQUERI (O.S.)

Jack!

INT. POLICE STATION CORRIDOR -DAY

Police Detective Scagnetti walks rapidly down the

hallway, wearing an old, wrinkly, black suit jacket.
