ERIC:
Anne Marie! Stop!
She glances down. Something metal is half-buried in the
dead leaves and gravel.
ERIC:
(continuing)
Don't move.
Eric runs over. He pokes at the object with a stick. With
a SNAP, a steel leg trap chomps the stick in half. Anne
Marie jumps back. Eric brushes the dead leaves on the
ground behind her and she carefully backtracks out of the
gully.
ERIC:
(continuing)
Goddamn trappers!
He angrily rips the trap out of the ground, unearthing
several others attached to one another by a long chain.
ERIC:
(continuing)
Takes nerve, laying traplines on
restricted land.
Eric slips the scope off the dart rifle and climbs up the
pipeline on foot pegs to the top of an anchoring poINT.
(CONTINUED)
3CONTINUED:
(3)Using the scope as a telescope, he scans up and down the
Haul Road.
ANNE MARIE:
What are you doing?
ERIC:
He still might be around. I saw
The road and the pipeline stretch toward either horizon,
north and south. In the distance, a jeep is parked on the
Haul Road. Near it, a Man climbs down into another shallow
ravine.
BACK TO SCENE:
Eric hurries down the footpegs.
ERIC:
Man and a jeep, about a mile and
a half down.
He jumps into the Scout. Anne Marie stuffs her cameras into
the hatchback. As soon as she climbs in, Eric tears out.
4INT. SCOUT - (MOVING SHOT)
It races along the dusty gravel road at 60 MPH.
5EXT. HAUL ROAD
Startled at the APPROACH of the Scout, the Trapper uproots
his traps and runs out of the ravine. He WHISTLES and
another Trapper appears nearby.
6INT. TRAPPERS' JEEP
They pile into their dilapidated, all-terrain jeep. It's
oddly well-equipped, however. Bolted to the dashboard is an
expensive tape player and a beat-up radio beacon receiver
with a round locating screen. They zoom off.
7INT. SCOUT - (MOVING SHOT)
Eric stomps on the gas. The dust from the jeep obscures his
view but he's gaining on them anyway. Anne Marie hangs on
and squints her eyes against the choking dust.
8INT. TRAPPERS' JEEP - (MOVING SHOT)
The driver is LEMALLE (35), a tall, ugly, rawboned Canadian.
His entire outfit is made of animal hide. He has long red
hair, and a reptilian face usually twisted into a sadistic
sneer. While driving, he scans along the pipeline.
LEMALLE:
Where the f*** did you drop
Corbett off?
In the passenger seat, MITCHELL (38), chews tobacco and
looks grim. He's a squat, flat-faced Okie, with curly
matted hair and tired grey eyes. He's dressed in a brown
long coat and has a Colt .45 Peacemaker in a quick-draw
holster strapped to his leg. Despite his intimidating air,
confrontation is not his style.
