INT. BAR- DAY 11
JACK washes his face in the cramped bathroom at the back of
the bar.
JACK’s well trained ear picks up sounds coming through the
ventilation:
sounds from the street, from the kitchen.JACK stares at himself in the mirror. He looks exhausted.
PAVEL *
Turn right outside the bar, then *
second left, Via Magenta. *
while I sort this out. *
JACK looks at him. There is tension between the two men.
PAVEL reaches into his inside pocket. JACK watches closely.
*
*
PAVEL produces an envelope and pushes it across the table. *
She had nothing to do with it. *
PAVEL *
A pity. I’ve made arrangements for
you in a small town in Abruzzo,
*
*
to take some time. Did she set you *
up? *
JACK *

PAVEL *
I’m working on that... It’s going *
PAVEL *
Who was the girl? *

but much gravitas.
It’s clear there’s a long history of mutual respect between

PAVEL (V.O.) *
You’ll find a dark blue Fiat Tempra *
with Pescara plates. I’ve marked a *
small town called Castelvecchio on *
the map. Stay there and lay low *
‘till you get my call. *
We cut back to the cafe. *
PAVEL *
Don’t talk to anyone. And Jack, *
above all else don’t make any *
friends... you used to know that. *
JACK watches him go. *
PAVEL rises. *
We now cut to Jack at the car parked on the street,
(Previously hot.) as we hear Pavel.
