Heat Page #2

Synopsis: Hunters and their prey--Neil and his professional criminal crew hunt to score big money targets (banks, vaults, armored cars) and are, in turn, hunted by Lt. Vincent Hanna and his team of cops in the Robbery/Homicide police division. A botched job puts Hanna onto their trail while they regroup and try to put together one last big 'retirement' score. Neil and Vincent are similar in many ways, including their troubled personal lives. At a crucial moment in his life, Neil disobeys the dictum taught to him long ago by his criminal mentor--'Never have anything in your life that you can't walk out on in thirty seconds flat, if you spot the heat coming around the corner'--as he falls in love. Thus the stage is set for the suspenseful ending....

There's more in a couple of days,

so don't sweat it. We're late.

Come on.

You gotta be kidding me.

Honey...

...it ain't worth the risks you take

for $8,000. Like in "Risk versus reward."

Let's go.

Get your coat.

There is no point talking.

You're a child growing older.

What does that mean?

We're not making forward progress

like real grown-up adults living our lives...

...because I married a gambling junkie.

Get in the f***ing car.

What am I doing in here?

You're not!

You want me to leave the bank book

and the car keys...

...in the kitchen on the way out the door?

-Are we going?

-Keep that crap. Dominick comes with me.

Don't even think about....

Tell me Albert Torena called back.

Albert Torena call Vincent?

No.

Report came in.

The explosive was Dy-Ex,

used in demolition.

You can pick it up in Nevada...

...Arizona, New Mexico.

Too common to trace a sale.

That's wonderful.

You all right?

What happened? Where have you been?

Work.

Lauren's dad show up?

Didn't call...

...didn't show. We waited for you till 10:30.

Now, does this guy have any idea

what's going on with this kid?

I don't know.

F***ing jerk.

Is she okay?

She's been in her room all day.

So, no, she's not okay. Neither am I.

I made dinner...

...for us, four hours ago.

Every time I try to maintain

a consistent mood between us...

...you withdraw.

I got three dead bodies on a sidewalk...

...off Venice Boulevard, Justine.

I'm sorry...

...if the goddamn...

...chicken...

...got overcooked.

Coffee, sir?

Please.

Will you pass the cream?

Thanks.

What'd you get?

What?

What are you reading?

Book about metals.

Stress Fractures in Titanium.

What kind of work do you do?

Lady, why are you so interested

in what I read or what I do?

I've seen you in the store.

What store?

Hennessey and Ingalls. I work there.

If you don't want to talk to me, it's okay.

I'm sorry I bothered you.

I didn't mean to be rude.

I didn't recognize you.

I work in metals. I'm a salesman.

My name's Neil.

I'm Eady.

You like working there?

Sure.

I get a discount and there's

a whole section of books in my area.

What area?

Graphic design.

I do letterheads and logotypes

at night and...

...the store's a day job

until I get enough going.

Who do you do that for?

A restaurant.

I did their menus, and...

...a small record label.

CDs.

I've done two so far.

You go to school for that?

Yeah.

I went to Parsons.

Where's that?

New York City.

How long you been here?

About a year.

Like it?

Not really. I'm mostly here for the work.

Live in this neighborhood?

No, I live kind of above Sunset Plaza.

It's a little house I rent.

And it's kind of rundown,
