Quentin Tarantino's

(pause)

You haven't thought about this?

MR. WHITE

I haven't had a chance to think.

First I was just trying to get the

fuck outta there. And after we

got away, I've just been dealin

with him.

MR. PINK

Well, you better start thinking

about it. Cause I, sure as fuck,

am thinking about it. In fact,

that's all I'm thinking about. I

came this close to just driving

off. Whoever set us up, knows

about this place. There could've

been cops sitting here waiting for

me. For all we know, there's

cops, driving fast, on their way

here now.

MR. WHITE

Let's go in the other room...

The camera creeps along a wall, coming to a corner. We

move past it, and see down a hall.

5 INT. BATHROOM HALLWAY - DAY

At the end of the hall is a bathroom. The bathroom door

is partially closed, restricting our view. Mr. Pink is

obscured, but Mr. White is in view.

MR. PINK (OS)

What the fuck am I doing here? I

felt funny about this job right

off. As soon as I felt it I

should said "No thank you", and

walked. But I never fucking

listen. Every time I ever got

burned buying weed, I always knew

the guy wasn't right. I just felt

it. But I wanted to believe him.

If he's not lyin to me, and it

really is Thai stick, then whoa

baby. But it's never Thai stick.

and I always said if I felt that

way about a job, I'd walk. And I

did, and I didn't, because of

fuckin money!

MR. WHITE

What's done is done, I need you

cool. Are you cool?

MR. PINK

I'm cool.

MR. WHITE

Splash some water on your face.

Take a breather.

We hear the sink running, and Mr. Pink splashing water on

his face.

MR. WHITE

I'm gonna get me my smokes.

Mr White opens the bathroom door, walks down the hall, and

OUT OF FRAME. We see Mr. Pink, his back turned towards

us, bent over the sink. Then he grabs a towels, and dries

his face. Mr White ENTERS FRAME with a pack of

Chesterfields in his hand.

MR. WHITE

Want a smoke?

MR. PINK

Why not?

The two men light up.

MR. WHITE

Okay, let's go through what

happened. We're in the place,

everything's going fine. Then the

alarm gets tripped. I turn around

and all these cops are outside.

You're right, it was like, bam! I

blink my eyes are they're there.

Everybody starts going apeshit.

Then Mr. Blonde starts shootin all

the--

MR. PINK

--That's not correct.

MR. WHITE

What's wrong with it?

MR. PINK

The cops didn't show up after the

alarm went off. They didn't show

till after Mr. Blonde started

shooting everyone.

MR. WHITE

As soon as I heard the alarm, I

saw the cops.

MR. PINK

I'm telling ya, it wasn't that

soon. They didn't let their

presence be known until after Mr.

Blonde went off. I'm not sayin

they weren't there, I'm sayin they

were there. But they didn't move

in till Mr. Blonde became a

madman. That's how I know we were

set up. You can see that,

can't you, Mr. White?

MR. WHITE

Look, enough of this "Mr White"

shit--

MR. PINK

--Don't tell me your name, I don't

want to know! I sure as hell

ain't gonna tell ya

mine.

MR. WHITE

You're right, this is bad.

(pause)

How did you get out?

MR. PINK

Shot my way out. Everybody was

shooting, so I just blasted my way

outta there.

CUT TO:

6 EXT. CROWDED CITY STREET - DAY

Mr. Pink is hauling ass down a busy city sidewalk. He has

a canvas bag with a shoulder strap in one hand, and a .357

MAGNUM in the other. If any BYSTANDERS get in his way, he

just knocks them down. We DOLLY at the same speed, right

along side of him.

FOUR POLICEMEN are running after Mr. Pink. We DOLLY with

them.

We DOLLY with a young woman on roller skates. ROLLERGIRL

is plugged into a walkman. We hear the song she's

listening to LOUD over the SOUNDTRACK. She's twirling and

skating backwards to the beat of the song.

Rollergirl turns a corner and COLLIDES with Mr. Pink. The

man and woman CRASH to the ground.

Mr. Pink rolls into the street, in front of a moving car

that SCREECHES to a stop, narrowly avoiding running over

him.

7 INT. CAR (STOPPED) - DAY

The CAMERA is in the backseat. A SHOCKED WOMAN is the

car's driver. Mr. Pink pulls himself up from the hood,

shakes it off, and points his magnum at the driver.

MR. PINK

Get outta the car! Get the fuck

outta the car!

The Shocked Woman starts screaming.

Mr. Pink tries to open the driver's side door, but it's

locked.

MR. PINK

Open the fucking door!

EXTREME C.U. DRIVER'S SIDE WINDOW

Mr. Pink SMASHES it in our face.

8 EXT. STREET - DAY

DOLLY with Cops coming up fast.

Mr. Pink DRAGS the Shocked Woman out of the car.

The Cops reach the corner, guns aimed.

Using the car as a shield, Mr. Pink FIRES three shots at

the Cops.

Everybody HITS the ground, or scatters.

Mr. Pink HOPS in the car.

Cops FIRE.

9 INT. CAR (MOVING) - DAY

CAMERA in the backseat, Mr. Pink FLOORS it. SPEEDING down

the street, with the Cops FIRING after him.

BACK TO:

10 INT. BATHROOM - DAY

Mr. Pink and Mr. White still talking in the bathroom.

MR. PINK

Tagged a couple of cops. Did you

kill anybody?

MR. WHITE

A few cops.

MR. PINK

No real people?

MR. WHITE

Uh-uh, just cops.

MR. PINK

Could you believe Mr. Blonde?

MR. WHITE

That was one of the most insane

fucking things I've ever seen.

Why the fuck would Joe hire

somebody like that?

MR. PINK

I don't wanna kill anybody. But

if I gotta get out that door, and

you're standing in my way, one way

of the other, you're gettin outta

my way.

MR. WHITE

That's the way I look at it. A

choice between doin ten years, and

takin out some stupid

motherfucker, ain't no choice at

all. But I ain't no madman

either. What the fuck was Joe

thinkin? You can't work with a

guy like that. That mother-

fucker's unstable. What do you

think? Do you think he panicked,

or ya think he's just trigger-

happy?

MR. PINK

I think he's a sick fuckin maniac!

We're awful goddamn lucky he

didn't tag us, when

he shot up the place. I came this

fucking close--

(hold up two fingers

and makes a tiny

space between them)

--to taking his ass out myself.

Everybody panics. When things get

tense, everybody panics.

Everybody. I don't care what your

name is, you can't help it. It's

human nature. But ya panic on the

inside.

Ya panic in your head. Ya give

yourself a couple a seconds of

panic, then you get a grip and

deal with the situation. What you

don't do, is shoot up the place

and kill everybody.

MR. WHITE

What you're supposed to do is act

like a fuckin professional. A

psychopath is not a professional.

You can't work with a psychopath,

'cause ya don't know what those

sick assholes are gonna do next.

I mean, Jesus Christ, how old do

you think that black girl was?

Twenty, maybe twenty-one?

MR. PINK

Did ya see what happened to

anybody else?

MR. WHITE

Me and Mr. Orange jumped in the

car and Mr. Brown floored it.

After that, I don't know what went

down.

MR. PINK

At that point it became every man

for himself. As far as Mr. Blonde

or Mr. Blue are concerned, I ain't

got the foggiest. Once

I got out, I never looked back.

MR. WHITE

What do you think?

MR. PINK

What do I think? I think the cops

caught them, or killed 'em.

MR. WHITE

Not even a chance they punched

through? You found a hole.

MR. PINK

Yeah, and that was a fucking

miracle. But if they did get

away, where the fuck are they?

MR. WHITE

You don't think it's possible, one

of them got ahold of the diamonds

and pulled a--

MR. PINK

Nope.

MR. WHITE

How can you be so sure?

MR. PINK

I got the diamonds.

MR. WHITE

Where?

MR. PINK

I got 'em, all right?

MR. WHITE

Where? Are they out in the car?

MR. PINK

No, they're not in the car. No, I

don't have them on me. Ya wanna

go with me and get 'em? Yes, we

can go right now. But first

listen to what I'm telling you.

We were fuckin set up! Somebody

is in league with the cops. We

got a Judas in our midst. And I'm

thinkin we should have our fuckin

heads examined for waiting around

here.

MR. WHITE

That was the plan, we meet here.

MR. PINK

Then where is everybody? I say

the plan became null and void once

we found out we got a rat in the

house. We ain't got the slightest

fuckin idea what happened to Mr.

Blonde or Mr. Blue. They could

both be dead
