In the midst of the commotion, with his practised sleight-of-<br />
hand, Jerome removes the vial from the syringe and replaces<br />
it with another concealed vial.<br />
JEROME<br />
(unfazed, putting<br />
Lamar at his ease)<br />
You must be out of practise, Lamar.<br />
Lamar hurriedly takes the syringe from Jerome.<br />
LAMAR<br />
(examining and<br />
removing the<br />
switched vial from<br />
the bent syringe)<br />
I've got enough here.<br />
JEROME<br />
(regarding the<br />
squimish detective,<br />
as he holds the<br />
gauze to his arm)<br />
Need any more, you can always get<br />
it off his shoes.<br />
<strong>The</strong> Detective notices the spatter of blood across his brogues<br />
and, with a look of disdain, wipes it clean. He tosses the<br />
incriminating tissue down a hygenically sealed garbage shoot.<br />
Lamar places Jerome's labelled vial in the carousel where it<br />
is immediately analyzed <strong>by</strong> the computer. Jerome's<br />
"legitimate" Employee ID code appears on the screen -<br />
"VALID". Another EMPLOYEE enters the testing lab.<br />
INT. <strong>GATTACA</strong>. DAY.<br />
JEROME exits the testing lab with the gauze held to his arm.<br />
IRENE is standing outside the door.<br />
IRENE<br />
So you didn't do it after all.<br />
JEROME<br />
(joking darkly)<br />
I guess somebody beat me to it.<br />
INT. <strong>GATTACA</strong> - MEZZANINE FLOOR. LATER IN THE DAY.<br />
From above, the INVESTIGATOR and HUGO observe the final<br />
EMPLOYEE exit the testing lab.
