INT. UNION STATION - SOUVENIR SHOP - DAY - 12:11PM

MS. JONES nears a souvenir stand. The OWNER is looking the

other way. Without breaking stride, MS. JONES reaches out,

snatches a child's coloring book and crayons.

LYNN:

You stole that.

MS. JONES

No, I didn't. I confiscated it.

There's a difference.

And they're out the door, GENE hurrying after. The big hand

on the big clock moves.

12:
12.

EXT. UNION STATION PARKING LOT - DAY - 12:12PM

MS. JONES heads for-a van with smoked windows. She gets inside

with LYNN. GENE stops a few feet away.

GENE:

What is going on?

MR. SMITH prods him in the ribs.

MR. SMITH

Into the van, Mr. Watson. Front seat.

GENE looks desperately around for help. There is none. He

lets MR. SMITH push him toward the van.

INT. VAN -.DAY - 12:13PM

LYNN and MS. JONES are in the back.

MS. JONES

Let's get your seatbelt on. Always

gotta wear your seatbelt, isn't that

right?

LYNN resists.

LYNN:

I want my daddy.

GENE climbs into the front passenger seat.

MS. JONES

There's your daddy. See? We're your

daddy's friends.

MR. SMITH climbs into the driver's seat.

MR. SMITH

That's right. The policeman is your

friend. Isn't that right, Daddy?

GENE looks down. MR.. SMITH has pulled his gun. He points it

casually so it's aiming through the seat in the general

direction of the little girl.

MR. SMITH

Daddy?

GENE:

Yes. It's OK, Lynn. These are our

friends.

MS. JONES

Hey, would you look at this crazy

car? Everybody has their own radio.

What do you think of that?
