Toy Soldiers Page #5

Synopsis: Billy Tepper is the leader of a group of rebellious boys at The Regis School. He has already been expelled from three prominent private schools. His best friend, Joey Trotta, is the son of the Head of the New York Mafia; Billy, all their friends and many other kids at the school have equally influential and prominent, if more law-abiding, parents. When Luis Cali's father is put in jail, he heads for the Regis School to put the son of the judge in charge of the case under hostage, only to find he has been removed. However, once he realises who the parents of the rest are, he decides the entire student body of the Regis School would be an even better bargaining chip.

- Mouthwash.

No. It's vodka.

- One-hundred proof vodka.

- So?

So you got an uncle that owns

that liquor store down the street.

- Wait just a damn minute.

- You wait just a damn minute, Sheriff.

We're gonna make ourselves

a little deal here.

You're gonna forget about

who spray painted your car...

- Sheriff!

- Listen, if you think...

Somebody's been shot

out at the Regis School!

Come on, Dean.

It's Frank Ingram.

- What's going on up at the school?

- We don't know.

We get fired on

if we try to get past the gate.

You two get your shotguns, get in the

back seat of my car, stay out of sight.

You don't want to do that. You want to

call the state police or the FBI.

Don't tell me what to do.

I'll call them myself.

Now hear this up at the school.

This is the King's County sheriff.

Hold your fire.

I'm coming up to talk to you.

I'm alone and unarmed.

Hold your fire.

Hold your fire.

Sheriff, Deputy Assistant

Director Otis Brown.

How you doin'?

Sheriff has agreed to

our assuming jurisdiction.

I've been briefed on the plane.

What's your assessment?

There's an unknown number of terrorists

with.50-caliber machine guns...

and antitank rockets.

There's about three miles

of perimeter around the campus...

and their weapons

can sweep the whole area.

We've got to get assistance

from the military.

I'll try to get it.

- No communication from the school?

- None.

Your father's well?

He's tired of being in prison.

He's ready to go home.

- I'm glad you could get here so quickly.

- My pleasure, Otis.

I have troops in observation positions

around the perimeter of the school...

and an assault force at a staging area

five minutes away.

Now, my orders are to assist you

with observation and surveillance...

and plan a joint assault

with your people.

That's it, Otis.

Anything else would require

specific orders from the president.

I understand.

Let's hope we never need to ask.

Is it armed?

It is now.

Oh, man!

This is disgusting. They expect us

to eat this? This is dog vomit.

The school is taken over by terrorists,

and I'm still on pots and pans.

Stop now.

Please come outside.

Anyone who leaves

this building will be shot.

We will take a head count now

and again in the morning.

If one person is missing...

five of you will be executed.

If two are missing,

ten will be shot.

And so on.

Tomorrow we will begin

a head count every hour...

on the hour.

If all goes well...

you will be allowed

out into the quad.

But every hour on the hour...

you must be in this room

to be counted.

Is that understood?

Second.

You have seen these orange wires running

throughout this building and outside.

These are wired to explosives.
