IN THE HALLWAY Loretta and Debbie are on hands and 10
knees, still looking. A pair of shoes comes INTO FRAME.
They LOOK up at a bullet-headed man.
BRUNO:
Ms. Preston? Bruno Handler, hotel
security.
LORETTA:
My ring! My ring! Oh my god...!
BRUNO:
Now just calm down, Ma'am... can youdescribe the ring?
LORETTA:
It's a diamond ring! A big diamondring! Oh my Christ!
She's frantic. Debbie takes Bruno aside.
DEBBIE:
I saw it. It's huge... it must belike eight carats. She says it wasa quarter of a million dollars!
Bruno turns back to Loretta, trying to calm her.
(CONTINUED)
THE DISTINGUISHED GENTLEMAN - Rev. 4/3/92 8.
10 CONTINUED:
10BRUNO:
Ma'am... calm down. Now, is the
ring insured?
LORETTA:
Of course it's insured! But you
know how it works -- if I report
it, they'll cancel me. And I don't
want another ring! I need this
ring! The ring Carlos gave me.
Bruno turns, speaks into the walkie-talkie he's carrying.
BRUNO:
Where the f*** is housekeeping? I called
for those d*ckheads ninety seconds ago.
11
IN THE FUNCTION ROOM the Guests have gathered to hear 11
Johnson speak. As Andersen introduces him, Tommy continues
eyeing Loretta.
ANDERSEN:
Now I won't run through Jeff's
record -- he's been in Congress
twenty years, and I've only got two
minutes. I'll just say this: When
those of us in pharmaceuticals, or
agribusiness, or insurance, or
(indicating himself)
utilities, or you name it -- when
we've needed him, Jeff's been there
for us. And we've been there for
Jeff, too -- we raised a hundred
thousand dollars today!
(APPLAUSE)
Without further ado, our man in
Washington, Jefferson Davis Johnson.
12
IN THE HALLWAY Debbie hears the APPLAUSE (O.S.). She 12
gets up.
DEBBIE:
I should be in there. Good luck,
Ms. Preston. I hope you find it.
She leaves. Loretta, mascara smeared, gets up, asdoes Bruno.
LORETTA:
I can't go in there like this. God!
Please... listen... I'll pay a ten
thousand dollar reward for anybody
who finds my ring. Just don't tell
Carlos!
(suddenly grim)
He'll kill me.

IN THE FUNCTION ROOM, as Johnson takes questions, Tommy 13
slips out.
QUESTIONER:
What do you make of all this campaignreform business, Jeff?
JOHNSON:
Well, y'know Ernie... these days,
everyone's down on the politicalaction committees and so-called
special interests. But, heck, I
think you and Fran have a right toparticipate in our democracy inexactly the way you're doing today.
I'm in Congress to represent you.
I don't want any so-called reformto take that power away from you.
