THE TOWN - Rev. 5/20/10 (Buff Reshoots) 6.<br />

12 INT. VAN - CONTINUOUS ACTION<br />

12<br />

Doug pushing her into the bench, sitting next to her.<br />

DOUG<br />

Eyes shut. Don’t talk. Don’t<br />

listen.<br />

Doug pulls out a small knife. He tugs at her jacket hem,<br />

CUTTING OFF a strip of fabric -- making her flinch.<br />

As THE VAN LURCHES FORWARD, he ties it around her head as<br />

a blindfold. He makes a fist and drives it -- STOPPING<br />

JUST SHORT OF HER NOSE. Making sure she can’t see.<br />

He sits back. STUDYING her with impunity.<br />

As he stares at her we have a NON-LINEAR SEQUENCE where<br />

we FLASH BACK TO Doug scouting the bank job, observing<br />

Claire as she came and went from work -- but we HEAR a<br />

conversation between Claire and an FBI agent that takes<br />

place AFTER the robbery.<br />

13 FLASHBACK - EXT. CAMBRIDGE MERCHANTS BANK<br />

13<br />

Doug watches intently from Au Bon Pain’s patio as Claire<br />

comes to work in the morning.<br />

FRAWLEY (V.O.)<br />

Ms. Keesey, I want to start with<br />

your abduction, then take you back<br />

through the robbery itself. Could<br />

you see anything through the<br />

blindfold?<br />

CLAIRE (V.O.)<br />

Just... a narrow strip of light.<br />

FRAWLEY (V.O.)<br />

I’m assuming they warned you not<br />

to cooperate with the police.<br />

CLAIRE (V.O.)<br />

One of them took my driver’s<br />

license.<br />

14 EXT. CAMBRIDGE MERCHANTS BANK<br />

14<br />

Claire gets off work. Doug sits in a cafe, watching.<br />

FRAWLEY (V.O.)<br />

Did he say anything else?
