REVEAL Louise. Her room is as orderly as the suitcase.
Everything matches. It's not quite as frilly as Thelma's,
but it is of the same ilk. She is debating whether to take
an extra pair of socks. She decides not to and closes the
suitcase. She goes to the phone, picks it up and dials. We
hear:
ANSWERING MACHINE (V.O.)
Hi. This is Jimmy. I'm not here
right now, but I'll probably be back
'cause... all my stuff's here. Leave
a message.
Louise slams down the phone. A framed picture of Louise and
Jimmy sits on the table next to the phone. She matter-of-
factly slams that face down, too.
INT. THELMA'S BEDROOM - DAY
Thelma is still throwing stuff in, randomly now. She talks
to herself quietly the whole time.
She is taking stuff off of her nightstand, a small clock,
fingernail scissors, etc.
She opens the drawer of her nightstand. Her attitude is
purposeful; she looks as if she knows exactly what she's
doing; although, frankly, she has no idea, and each decision
is completely arbitrary. As she rifles through it, plucking
various items from among the jumbled contents, we see there
is a gun in there, one Darryl bought her for protection. It
is unloaded, but there is a box of bullets. She picks up
the gun like it's a rat by the tail and puts it in her purse.
THELMA:
(muttering to herself)
Psycho killers...
She grabs the box of bullets and throws them in, too. She
tries to close her suitcase, but there is stuff hanging out
all over the place. She stuffs things back in the sides and
heaves all her weight against the top.
EXT. THELMA'S HOUSE - DAY
Louise's green '66 T-Bird convertible pulls into the driveway
of Thelma's house. The garage door goes up and Thelma is
standing in the garage with all her gear. A suitcase that
looks like it might explode, fishing gear, a cooler, a
lantern. Thelma's car, a beat-up gray Honda, is parked in
there, too. Louise gets out of the driver's seat.
LOUISE:
We don't need the lantern. The place
has electricity.
THELMA:
I wanna take it anyway. Just in
case.
LOUISE:
In case of what?
THELMA:
In case there's some escaped psycho
killer on the loose, who cuts the
electricity off and tries to come in
and kill us.
LOUISE:
(going along with her)
Oh yeah, sure, Thelma, that lantern
will come in real handy. Maybe we
could tow your car behind, in case
THELMA:
We'd have to. That thing barely
makes it down the driveway.
They load everything into the car. The trunk barely closes.
Thelma heaves all her weight against it. They get into the
car and pull out of the driveway. As they drive down the
street, we hear Thelma let out a long howl.
