WITWER:

Danny Witwer.

(then)

The "Twink from the Fed". Gum?

Anderton gives him a look, Witwer offers Anderton a stick of

GUM.

JAD:

The Marks moved two weeks ago. No

one knows where. Still searching

for family and employer.

MECHANICAL VOICE

Time horizon:
12 minutes...

Anderton looks at his watch: COUNTING DOWN, 12 MINUTES.

ANDERTON:

I'm sorry Danny, but I'll have to

give you the full tour later on.

WITWER:

Your secretaries were all kind

enough to give me a look around the

office...

Anderton looks through the glass doors where A HALF DOZEN

FEMALE PRECRIME OFFICE WORKERS ogle Witwer, even one that's

pregnant (a moving image of her baby on the front of her

maternity T-shirt). They ALL CHEW GUM.

Witwer watches as Anderton moves his fingers across the

display, "flying through" the precrime scene, moving forward

and back in time. ARCHITECTURAL REFERENCE SCREENS run side

by-side with the Prevision Screen...

ANDERTON:

Original running bond brick

pattern, streamlined early Georgian

Details...

Fletcher begins pointing out the equipment to Witwer who just

listens quietly... asks no questions.

FLETCHER:

What he's doing now, we call

"scrubbing the image", looking for

clues as to where the murder's

going to happen.

ANDERTON:

The brick has been repointed, the

glass is original with new glazing

bars. I show composite mouldings

with dentils.

(then)

Someone took care in the

renovation. Let's find the

architect...

FLETCHER:

Victims are pronounced here.

Killers here. We never touch

anything.

ANDERTON:

I show a cop on horseback.

JAD:

Somewhere near the capital?

ANDERTON:

No maglev system.

JAD:

The mall?

ANDERTON:

Georgetown.

Fletcher introduces Witwer to a female member of the team.

FLETCHER:

This is Evanna, the team pilot.

WITWER:

Nice to meet you. Gum?

She gives him a once over, takes a piece of gum.

EVANNA:

Oh, thank you...
