Scorpio Page #2

Don't limit your action. Read palms.

Maybe my character will improve.

Orion boasted he would kill

all the animals on the earth.

So the goddesses Diana and Latona

created the scorpion to slay the hunter.

You and McLeod make two nice goddesses.

Tell Diana I've got my day planned.

Cross came back.

You were to kill him in Paris.

Remember everything?

Just in case.

I remember.

I can't see him. He's got out and run.

Oh, Jesus!

Joy.

Joy, baby. A C-note?

My mother's dead, man,

so who do I have to kill?

You know the Lord's Prayer?

McLeod?

McLeod, McLeod.

How bad does he want me?

All the way.

He say why?

Where's your partner?

He's hurt. He's back in the car.

Go! a radio in it?

You ever been in the field?

But you've seen the survival kit.

You know what this is?

It's the happy pill.

It's the "kiss the mortgage goodbye pill.

So long, brother of mine.

You've got 30 seconds to live.

Miami, single.

You got nothing smaller, mister?

What's the matter? Business slow?

New York, single. What time does it leave?

You're sure?

What? Are you here for laughs? I'm sure.

Taxi.

Just drive on ahead.

Thanks.

- Anne.

- ANNE:
Who is it?

- C'est moi?

- Jean!

She's lecturing.

She'll be back soon. Had breakfast?

Mm-hmm.

and red for your love. Hungry?

(LAUGHING)

You bastard!

You're one hell of a letter writer.

One postcard from Damascus in six months.

He brought you some flowers.

The red ones are for you.

Oh, hell! The coffee!

I know a place that does a good breakfast.

Hello. May I speak to Mitch, please?

There's no Mitch here.

What number are you calling?

393-4098.

I'm sorry. You have the wrong number.

Three...

And how long are you here for this time?

Well, I...

No, don't tell me. It's too pretty

a day. I don't want it to rain.

No time, Sarah. McLeod wants me dead.

H! have to go deep,

so you won't hear from me for a while.

Pick'll get in touch. I love you, Sarah.

Keep that mountain in mind.

I love you, Cross.

No trouble. Just let me get my bag.

There.
