Prick.
FERGIE
They start SHOOTING at one another.
The feel should be of watching people shoot one another
on surveillance video: wide, detached and oddly
pedestrian.
Doug has the clear advantage of a VEST and after five or
six shots Fergie BUCKLES and DROPS to the floor abruptly.
Doug replaces his empty clip with a new one, chambering a
round. He opens his shirt and checks to see that the
VEST HAS SAVED HIM FROM SEVERAL HITS -- HE IS OKAY.
He kneels next to Fergie who lies on the floor and puts
his gun in the florist’s CROTCH and looks him in the eye.
BOOM --
DOUG
Fergie, remember who it was that
clipped your nuts for you.

Frawley listens to a COP give his SHOOTING STATEMENT to
an INTERNAL AFFAIRS OFFICER, exaggerating his role.
BRAGGING COP
To reload, at which point I fired,
struck the suspect. I believe at
least once in the clavicle...
Frawley tunes this guy out.
Then a flurry of activity among the cops nearby. A
passing cop’s police radio drones:
POLICE RADIO (V.O.)
... repeat, all units, 529 Main
Street, Charlestown...
Dino and Frawley look at each other.
FRAWLEY
That’s the Florist.
Dino hails a passing plainclothes DETECTIVE he knows.
DINO
Hey! Bobby! What is that?
