THE TOWN - Rev. 5/20/10 (Buff Reshoots) 1. FADE IN: 1 EXT. HARVARD SQUARE PLAZA 1 Early morning. Just after eight. The Plaza where people come up from the subway station. Some kiosks nearby. An ARMORED TRUCK idles in front of Out of Town News. The driver sits behind the wheel, taking slightly nervous stock of the morning scene. A CITY WORK TRUCK idles across from the bank. The COURIER (the guy who “couries” the dolly in and out of the bank) goes around to the back of the armored truck. He opens the door and pulls out a DOLLY and a METAL BOX. We see his SIDEARM on his hip. The Courier begins pushing the dolly across the plaza toward the bank. We TRACK WITH him. The walk winds around kiosks. He weaves through various PEDESTRIANS and LOITERERS, TRAVELERS, DRUGGIES, AND KIDS. We get the sense that something must be about to happen. It doesn’t. Sees a SUSPICIOUS PERSON, passes him, nothing happens. Wends around a work truck stopped in front of the bank. Still nothing. The Courier reaches the bank doors. Safety. He opens the door and steps in. 2 INT. CAMBRIDGE MERCHANTS BANK - CONTINUOUS ACTION 2 BOOM! With extraordinary violence, the Courier is SLAMMED in to as if by a savage HOCKEY CHECK by a MAN (DOUG) WHO is MASKED AND ARMED. THREE MORE ARMED, MASKED MEN move past them shouting: MASKED MEN Empty your pockets! Take it out! The stunned employees are PUSHED BACK while the bandits quickly rifle their pockets for cell phones. A TOUGH THIEF (JEM) JUMPS THE COUNTER and goes after the employees in the back. A HEAVY THIEF (GLOANSY) zip ties the door. A LARGE THIEF (DEZ) gets cell phones from people in the front. (CONTINUED)

BEHIND THE COUNTER - MOMENTS LATER 3 The employees are gathered on the ground. GLOANSY is standing over the employees, whose CELL PHONES and BLACKBERRIES have been placed in a container and DOUSED WITH BLEACH. Jem finishes the last drawer. Doug walks back, checks clock. DOUG Bank manager. Come on. Both CLAIRE KEESEY (30) and a man (her assistant manager, DAVID BEARNS) begin to rise. Doug points his rifle at BEARNS. Jem KICKS him. DOUG You’re not the manager. JEM Sit the fuck down. Jesus Christ. BEARNS Doug hoists Claire up to the VAULT DOOR. DOUG What’s the time lock set for? (CONTINUED)
