It’s a small mirror on a long pole poking through a crack
in the wall. Jem opens up, SHATTERING the mirror.
Doug looks to the street, people are PANICKING. SWAT is
SCRAMBLING. Some police begin to advance.
He FIRES over their heads to back them off.
The dock suddenly fills with ricocheting fireballs:
STARFLASH ROUNDS.
Jem breaks off his empty mag and reloads, cursing.
And it begins.
Total shoot-out pandemonium.
Doug takes cover at the GATE and shots start RAINING in
around him.
He FIRES out the GRATE to back off the fire, SHATTERING
GLASS on nearby souvenir storefronts.
JEM
How the duck did this happen?
Gloansy FIRES from outside the car. Dez moves up to the
front of the ambulance near Doug.
SHOTS LAND NEAR DOUG. HE JUMPS, moves, can’t see where
they’re coming from. He takes cover behind a pole and
more shots hit the door of the ambulance.
GLOANSY IS HIT and falls to the ground clutching his
chest.
Doug looks to see the shots are coming out of a PORTHOLE
in the ARMORED TRUCK. The DRIVER is taking pot shots at
them.
DOUG
It’s the driver. Fuck!
Doug signals to Dez.
DOUG
Hit the plunger!
He points to a knob on the wall near the roll-up door on
the bay. Dez makes a run for it. Simultaneously, Doug
runs at the armored truck, STICKS HIS RIFLE IN THE PORT
AND FIRES!
The Driver JUMPS, panics and gets behind the wheel, guns
the engine and heads out the door.
