NELSON:

They got shot. Don't open it -I

coercion -- entrapment!

SARA:

Will you relax? They're just...

To Nelson's amazement, Sara removes two squirming JackRussell puppies from the bag.

SARA:

... some fine furry friends.

(kisses puppies)

Somebody was gonna slice open yourlittle heads and do nasty experimentson your brains, weren't they?

She lets them go as the car stops for a light. Nelson

lashes out, furious.

(trying to compose

himself)

Let me get this straight. You

humiliated me, harassed and

exploited me -- just so -- I couldhelp you in some cute save-thepuppy

if we whacked a few people whilewe were at it?

its searchlight raking the buildings. His eyes light up.
