PHILLIP: This experience has been a real eye opener.
SECRET SERVICE AGENT ERSKINE: John Q. can't possibly imagine the difficulties the Secret Service faces protecting the president.
PHILLIP: The president of the United States. Now, who'd want that job? The only plus I can see is that you don't have to worry about where you left your house keys.
Agent Erskine's attention is called to an update he is receiving in his earpiece.
SECRET SERVICE AGENT ERSKINE: Hold it. Roger that. The president's getting ready to leave. There'll be some handshaking...As he exits the hotel of course . But we're almost out of your hair.
PHILLIP: What's left of it!
SECRET SERVICE AGENT ERSKINE: After he's left this sector you'll be able to take yourselves off alert. You and your staff deserve a pat on the back.
PHILLIP: Thank you agent Erskine. It's an honor you chose our hospital.
SECRET SERVICE AGENT ERSKINE: If there had been a medical emergency you don't think we'd have taken the president to county?
Cut to Diane and Billy walking in downtown Chicago.
BILLY: It really meant a lot to me.
DIANE: It was a good movie. I liked it.
BILLY: Your messing up the point.
DIANE: No Billy I think that you are missing the point.
BILLY: Really oh, OK what's the point?
DIANE: The point it, OK the point is that movie is an extremely misogynistic glorification of violence.
BILLY: What! What are you talking about?
DIANE: Come on. Like 800 people are killed in two hours. Al Pacino is this coked-up power crazed thug. Michele Pfieffer is the only women in the movie and she's either in her underwear or begging Tommy for sex.
BILLY: Look Tony. Tony, Tony Montana, not Tommy, Tony.
DIANE: Uh Whatever.
BILLY: Not whatever. This is a reach out experience here Diane. And you're clearly drawing attitude.
Diane stops and turns to Billy.
DIANE: Wait a minute. I agree to go out on our only mutual night off to an art house showing of "Scarface" so that you could sit there mesmerized shoving popcorn in your face. This is a reach out experience?
BILLY: Absolutely.
DIANE :Uh. Come on. Come on Come on.
BILLY: What?
Cut to Jack walking into the lounge where the staff who are on alert are watching the Bulls game, and sits next to Aaron.

JACK: Time?
AARON: Less then a minute.
JACK: Rodman?
AARON: Fouled out
JACK: Son-Of A Bitch
AARON: Calm down big fella
Phillip walks into the room.

Staff all talking
Cut back to Diane and Billy still walking and heading to a video store.
DIANE: Your appreciation of the cinema borders on the Neanderthal.
BILLY: My appreciation?
DIANE: Yes sir.
BILLY: You got the same problem with your films as you do with your music.
DIANE: Oh yeah, what's that?
BILLY: Pure unrelenting uncompromising chick taste.
DIANE: Oh Please?
BILLY: Oh Please "The water in the chocolate?"
DIANE: The what?
BILLY: That stupid movie where that girl rides her horse naked and cried all over everyone's desert.
DIANE: Like Water for Chocolate. Careful here Billy. I have a substantial spiritual bond with the author, Laura Escerville.
BILLY: Well I feel the same way about Scarface.
DIANE: What you get inspiration from Teddy Montana and his bazooka?
BILLY: Tony Montana
DIANE: Whatever
BILLY: Yes, I do. What are you looking for?
DIANE: Ummm... "Emma."
BILLY: "Emma!" "Emma!" Oh God "Emma", no, Chick taste! Hey where's all the Steve McQueen movies, huh?

Cut to Billy and Diane, who have left the video store and are walking downtown again.
DIANE: I love you Billy. For so many reasons. But hardly a day goes by that I don't think you have to undergo psychological evaluation. I mean how can you.... you cried when we saw "Like Water for Chocolate."
BILLY: False! You wanna go get some Starbucks?
DIANE: You liked that movie. Why are you pretending to be so tough?
Car screeches around the corner with police chasing after it. Billy and Diane stop and watch what is going on in front of them. The two cars come to a hault, and are followed by several police cars. The green sedan crashes into a parking meter and the three people get out of the car.
MALLOY: Police Freeze!
Gunfire breaks out between the cops and the green sedan.
BILLY: Down Down Down
Diane screaming
RAMSEY: Elks!

BILLY: Are you all right?
DIANE: Yeah
BILLY: Huh...are you sure your all right?
DIANE: I'm OK. Is it over?
BILLY: Yeah yeah I think so.
We hear screaming off screen and Billy and Diane turn towards the sound.
COP: Officer down here Somebody!
Billy and Diane run over to where the officer is laying in the street.

DIANE: He's in full arrest.
BILLY: Yeah the bullet must have hit a major vessel. Let's get an ambulance!
We see a car pull up to the scene and see FBI agent Strickler exit the vehicle.
The two secret service agents watch Diane and Billy performing CPR.
STRICKLER: Any others hurt?
ADELSTEIN: No not out here at least
STRICKLER: Get those good sam amateurs out of their and let the paramedics do their job.
ADELSTEIN: Those are doctors from Chicago Hope.
STRICKLER: You heard me. Get them out of there.
ADELSTEIN: Yes sir.
The two agents walk into the video store, which is across the street from the market.
GREENBLATT: These guys came out of nowhere.
STRICKLER: We have a hard-line into that market yet? Make sure we coordinate everything with the local authorities. We have a hardline yet?
The phone rings into the market and Ramsey picks up the phone.
STRICKLER: Good Evening. This is FBI Agent Tom Strickler. Who am I speaking too?
RAMSEY: Eugene Ramsey.
STRICKLER: You live around here Mr. Ramsey?
RAMSEY: Used too... Next neighborhood over. Now my home's Ypsilanti.
STRICKLER: Oh yeah. Hey I vacation in Northern Michigan. Bag a lot of Canadian Geese up there. Clean them cook, them myself. Hey uh. You mind me asking how many folks your detaining?
ELKS: I caught this one hiding in the deep freeze. But he's the last.
RAMSEY: We have 5 people. None hurt.
STRICKLER: Uh Mr Ramsey, you also mind me asking. What this all about?
RAMSEY: We represent the unvoiced majority of white Americans. We are committed to holding the United States government accountable for acts against the people.
STRICKLER: Ok Mr. Ramsey. I hear you. You know, of course, I represent the United States government and my only concern right now, my only interest is in, uh, your piece of mine and the safety of those people in their. So uh why don't you tell me what it is that you require? What would it take to put you in a mind-set so that you'd be inclined to walk out of that market without your weapons so that everyone remains unhurt?
RAMSEY: With the governments track record when it comes to peaceful resolutions, and no ones mentioning Waco-I would say that your concern was well founded, at the moment my concern is my son. He was shot and needs a doctor. Now!
Cut to Chicago Hope emergency room

Cut to video store where agent Strickler is talking to Diane and Billy.
STRICKLER: OK so here's the deal. I'm gonna send you in to see what's what. In a non-threatening manner I would like for you to assess who badly this kid is hurt. Do what you can do. Keep the conversation to a minimum and then get out.
BILLY: All right.
DIANE: Billy?
STRICKLER: You got any Rooster issues? Problems rolling over, authority figure complexes, hate with your mother any of that sort of thing.
BOTH DIANE AND BILLY: Yes, No
BILLY: No
DIANE: Yes!
Cut to Chicago Hope where Phillip and Agent Erskine are walking in the hall.
PHILLIP: Two of my doctors are involved here, I'm sure you can understand why I want to know what's going on?
SECRET SERVICE AGENT ERSKINE: Even though we are working in tandem with the FBI this is a rapidly developing situation. It would be imprudent for me...
PHILLIP: Stop stonewalling me and stop talking like a Federal bureaucrat.
SECRET SERVICE AGENT ERSKINE: Dr. Watters, I can't confirm anything at this time. You have to trust me. The FBI and the secret service both want this resolved peacefully. When I'm able I'll provide you with information.
PHILLIP: Maybe I'll get some answers from the press?
Phillip turns and walks away from Agent Erskine towards the press room, with the agent hot on his heals.
SECRET SERVICE AGENT ERSKINE: Dr. Watters, talking to reporters about this is not in anybody's best interest. Especially your two doctors, the media would love a blood bath. Dr. Watters! Restraint is not weakness.
PHILLIP: I'll try remembering that.
Walks into press room with press yelling questions
Cut to downtown Chicago.
FBI agents running to roofs on surrounding buildings and the el.
Cut to video store.
DIANE: Why you? We were just walking by. Let the FBI deal with this.
BILLY: I don't think we have time to be drawing straws. Diane I wouldn't be doing this if I thought it was dangerous.
DIANE: Oh
BILLY: Bullet proof. Pretty cool huh?
DIANE: Stay here with me, I'll buy you one for your birthday
STRICKLER: Konk. Hey Konk you good to go?
BILLY: Kronk. The name is Kronk. Yeah I'm ready to go.
STRICKLER: Mr. Ramsey we agreed this doctor would be coming in empty handed so he'll only be able to examine your son. You ready sir? Let's go.
DIANE: Billy, don't be a hero
BILLY: Chick song.
DIANE: Your shaking.
BILLY: No it just uh, It's just cold.
DIANE: It's not that cold
BILLY: I'm that cold
STRICKLER: Doctor.
Billy looks back at Diane and then heads out the door towards the market.
As he crosses the street to the market Billy looks around and sees all of the agents and cops with men around him, by the police cars and on top of nearby buildings.
BILLY: Cold
Billy looks back at Diane, who's standing in the window of the video store, then continues to walk across the street.
ELKS: What's your name.
BILLY: William Kronk
ELKS: Kronk. Are you a Jew.
BILLY: I'm a doctor.
ELKS: Where did you go to school?
BILLY: Northwestern.
ELKS: You don't have an accent.
BILLY: Northwestern is here in Chicago.
ELKS: Is that right?
BILLY: Yes it is.
ELKS: Watch your back talk.
BILLY: No back talk intended.
ELKS: What's this? He's clean as a cat's ass.
BILLY: Everybody all right.
RAMSEY: Don't bother yourself with them your here to take care of my son.
Billy walks over to where Bobby is laying on the floor and begins examining him.
BILLY: How you feeling?
BOBBY: It hurts.
BILLY: Mmh Hmm. Do you know you name?
BOBBY: Bobby
BILLY: Bobby move your hands for me. Just take it easy. Relax. Relax. Breathe deep. All right, he uh, he's going to need to be taken to a hospital. He needs surgery.
RAMSEY: Do it here.
BILLY: Do it here? That impossible.
RAMSEY: Why?
BILLY: Well uh you see I shop at this market.
Mr. CHRISTY: I guess I need to lock up earlier.
BILLY: Yeah I guess you do Mr. Christy. Your son has significant internal bleeding. His condition is very critical. All we have to work with here are canned peaches aisle 2, frozen string beans aisle 3, Aisle 5 instant pudding my personal favorite.
Elks kicks Billy in the head.
ELKS: I warned you about back talk. I don't want to have to warn you again.
Cuts to video store where they are listening to scene over speaker.
RAMSEY: Dr. Kronk. Let me explain. Our organization has reached the point of zero tolerance for the federal government. The exploration of non-violent reasonable solutions is no longer appropriate.
STRICKLER: Whatever happened to writing your congressmen?
RAMSEY: The situation has forced us to take action. It's a state of war. The day of the rope is here.
STRICKLER: Where's that print out on Ramsey?
BILLY: I'm sure you feel, no back talk intended, (scene cuts back to market) I'm sure you feel very passionately about your cause. Does not change the fact that your son is going to die unless someone operates on him.
RAMSEY: I'll start with your friend. He will die unless someone operates. Bring in equipment do whatever it takes.
BILLY: Give me the phone.
Cut to Chicago Hope OR where Kate and Keith are operating on Officer Malloy. Phillip is watching from overhead viewing room.
KATE: Need some suction here Hey Phillip, any word on Billy?
PHILLIP: No... Information is a one way street with the FBI. I did learn that Diane was with him.
KATE: They'll be okay. Oh a lot of damage to the pulmonary artery.
KEITH: Angle DeBakey clamp
NURSE: DeBakey.
KATE: Ok here is bullet number one. God I hate guns.
PHILLIP: If I'm not mistaken you own a gun.
KATE: It's not like I want to you know. I mean to me it's like having a dog I just feel more secure knowing he's there.
WILKES: You keep this, uh, dog of yours loaded?
KATE: Let's go after bullet number two okay. Retract the upper lobe.
KEITH: This bullet is right up against the spinal canal.
KATE: Yep if were not careful Mr. Malloy will never walk again.
Phone rings
WILKES: Okay Phillip this is not our department.
KATE: Uh uh.
PHILLIP: OK page Shutt and McNeil.
KATE: Clamp.
NURSE: Right away.
NURSE: The FBI is on the line they say it's urgent.
PHILLIP: Transfer it up here.
NURSE: They're not asking for you they want Dr. Austin.
Kate is now at video store
STRICKLER: I'd put you two in bullet proof vests, but they'll uh just rip them off.
KATE: What's the good news?
STRICKLER: There's a highly unacceptable probability the situation will not resolve itself peacefully. Even if you go in very likely hostages will still be killed.
KATE: What's your point?
STRICKLER: This is Agent Fader, a member of our hostage rescue team. She is also a well trained emergency medical technician. I'm sending her in with you.
KATE: Is that a good idea?
STRICKLER: Mr. Ramsey and Mr. Williams are the type who would rather die the surrender. This may be our only chance to get one of our own on the inside.
OFF SCREEN VOICE: Were planting a gun in this towel.
STRICKLER: Should the opportunity arise agent fader will not hesitate to use extreme force.
KATE: Extreme force?
STRICKLER: Shoot to kill.
KATE: Oh .
Cut back to video store.
RAMSEY How you doing Bobby?
BOBBY: Hanging tough. I feel like I'm getting heavy pop. I'm really cold. This didn't turn out to good did it.
RAMSEY: Well, we tried son. It's nothing to be ashamed of. At least we tried.
ELKS: What's taking so much time?
BILLY: They're getting their supplies together.
ELKS: This doctor.
BILLY: Dr. Austin, best cardiac surgeon I know. Same with the anesthesiologist. Geruso. All the best surgeons were standing by in case someone got hit.
ELKS: I tried to oblige believe me. I went to take a shot at his head. I had him square in my site.
RAMSEY: We planned on a chest shot.
ELKS: A head shot is a kill shot.
RAMSEY: Well he's not dead is he! Instead my son's lying here. See that, see what you've done.
ELKS: It's not what I've done, It's not what I've done. (begins throwing bottles at the wall) It's not what I've done!
Cut to Kate and Agent Fader heading across the street to market.
KATE: You think you can handle the situation?
FADER: You asking if the situation can be handled or if I can handle the situation?
KATE: Both.
FADER: The situation can be handled, as for my qualification I assume coming from you that your concern is not gender based.
KATE: You assume wrong.
FADER: Don't question my willingness to execute those three men.
KATE: No, not your willingness. Believe me I know all about a women's drive and desire. It's just when it comes down to swinging a pick ax, scoring touchdowns, arm-wrestling.
FADER: Look, you want to make your point!
KATE: Yeah OK. If I'm in bed at four o'clock in the morning, and my eight year olds crying in my arms and my house is burning down around me, when that firefighter comes busting through those doors I'd be lying if I said I wouldn't be a lot less comfortable if that firefighter was five foot six with breasts and a pony tail. No offense.
FADER: Yeah. None taken Just be ready if I get a shot I'm gonna take it.
GERUSO: Girls you want to knock it off?
KATE: Stay out of it!
FADER: Shut up!
Cut to market, operating on Bobby.
ELKS: A Bitch Kitty. A woman they sent us women a freaking woman. Austin? What is that French?
KATE: My fathers family is from Portugal.
ELKS: A breeder with an education. What about you?
GERUSO: Italian on both sides.
ELKS: Fader?
FADER: English.
ELKS: All right!
KATE: I got a large retro peritoneal hematoma right here.
BILLY: All right. It's going to bleed when you open it up. Metz. Let's go Metz!
KATE: Metzenbaum.
KATE: Um.... I'm going to need to pack the, um, large intestine. Um Can I have the, uh, wet blue towel now?
ELKS: Hold it. Step away
Cut to video store, listening over speaker.
Gun shot
STRICKLER: Hold your fire, hold your fire do not shoot!
(phone rings)
Mr Ramsey, Uh Eugene, What's with the gunshot.
Cut to scene in street. STICKLER and RAMSEY are talking.
STRICKLER: Mr Ramsey? Eugene What's with the gunshot?
RAMSEY: At a very early age, my father impressed upon me the importance of self conviction. The necessity of a man to understand in the deepest and most thorough ways, his limitations. Who he is and who he isn't. Now we're but a skinny nickel away from a blood bath in there. You should think hard on anymore monkey business. All right, my son is sick and I have a partner who is extremely difficult to control.
STRICKLER: I understand. I - I do. I told you from the get-go that my only interest is in your piece of mind and the in safety of those people in there.
RAMSEY: I want your word. No more monkey business.
STRICKLER: Why don't you send the people out.
RAMSEY: No one leaves until my son is on the mend.
STRICKLER: I'm just asking Eugene that's what I do.
RAMSEY: Let me here you say. No more monkey business.
STRICKLER: No more monkey business you have my word on it.
(Ramsey walks away back into the market)
STRICKLER: Eugene you never told me about the gunshot.
(Ramsey walks into the market and seconds later Agent Fader's body comes crashing through the front window.)
Cut to video store
STRICKLER: At this point we have no choice.
DIANE: You must have a choice don't you guys usually have plan A, B, C, D to deal with these kind of things?
STRICKLER: There were only two potential breach points. Through the doors front and rear. Now I suggest we that use simultaneous flash bang charges and then flood the market with sufficient manpower to put down the situation with minimal loss of life.
DIANE: Oh my god. Minimal loss of life. What is that, one two. My boyfriends in there!
STRICKLER: Dr. Grad I will have you removed if you don't keep your mouth shut.
DIANE: All right All right.
STRICKLER: All right. (very faint) All right guys now this is the floor plan of the market.
ADELSTEIN: I've been in this situation a dozen times and every time I swear I can't get through it again.
DIANE: I, uh, I know you have to do what you have to do. You know I see people in the hospital who have done the most horrendous things possible. Husbands beating up their wives, parents killing their babies. I had a good friend. He was, uh, shot to death not more then 5 blocks from here for nothing. No reason what so ever. It's crazy. Where is all this, us, this hatred coming from. God I can't believe I'm going through this again.
ADELSTEIN: Doctor, uh, what's your specialty?
DIANE: ID, infectious disease.
ADELSTEIN: Can you tell me, is this herpes? I, I understand it can be transmitted through oral sex. And um...
DIANE: Shouldn't you be listening?
ADELSTEIN: Yeah
Adelstein moves across the video store to join the other FBI agents getting their assignments.
Cut to Aaron and Jack working on Officer Malloy
JACK: Well Wilkes wasn't kidding, bullets wedged directly in the vertebral body.
AARON: Well, look on the bright side, you're not stuck in a market with white supremacists.
JACK: Yeah, I get to hang here with you. You seen Karen Wilder lately?
AARON: Yeah as a matter of fact I have. You know she claims that the two of you are, uh, just friends, but I don't buy it.
JACK: I have worked with Karen for 8 years, I've known her for almost ten. I value our friendship too much and respect her too much to risk throwing it all away.
AARON: That's very chivalrous, but um somehow I suspect that you wanted it to be more then just friends.
JACK: Bullets destroyed the lamina, I'll have to fuse.
AARON: Wont you do better if you just remove the bullet. I mean come on tell the truth, this thing between the two of you has been going on way before I even asked her out.
JACK: With the lamina fragmented like this the spine will be unstable. It could give him pain for the rest of his life. Trust me if Karen and I had already been seeing each other she wouldn't have said hello to you.
AARON: The guys been shot in the spine. Chances are he's going to be in pain no matter what you do.
JACK: I want him to walk under his own steam someday. You neuro slugs. You're all faint hearted... and wishy washy. You're bad dressers too.
AARON: Yeah not like you, uh, carpenter orthos...break-it, fix-it.
JACK: Aaron, the way I heard it you were the one who wanted it to be more then friends with Karen.
AARON: Just so the records straight, I was the one who broke it off with Karen.
JACK: Broke it off? You took off! Without even the decency of talking to her. Now if you don't mind here I'm going to give Officer Malloy here back his bowel and bladder control. Someone try finding out if the bulls won.
Cut to market, Elks flipping through the radio stations on a portable radio. He finds a song and begins singing with it.
"There's nothing worth living for tonight. .. Tell me that there's something worth living for tonight. Don't let me drown. The pain is somewhere, somewhere very close to me... There's nothing worth living for tonight. Tell me that there's something worth living for tonight. Don't let me drown. ...
song continues.
(Cuts to scene of Diane and the FBI during the song. We see the FBI getting ready to storm the market, and Jack and Aaron operate on Officer Malloy, Kate and Billy operating on the Bobby.)
Elks singing with the song.
BILLY: Elks knock it off! Shut up!
ELKS: You don't bark at me.
BILLY: Your singing sucks and it's messing up our concentration.
ELKS: Bet I sing better then you?
KRONK: Really? Well that is a question that will remain in the realm of the rhetorical since I do not see a sing-off in our future.
ELKS: Your future may wind up being a lot shorter then mine.
KATE: Step away while we operate.
ELKS: You don't give me any back talk either. The only reason your still standing here...
KATE: I know I know I know I know your going to shoot Kronk your going to shoot me your going to shoot everybody. Now step away.
ELKS: You're a frisky thing.
RAMSEY: Elks!
Cut to video store
STRICKLER: When everyone's in position we go on my three count.
OVER WALKIE - TALKIE: Roger. Copy that.
Cut to market
ELKS: I've been thinking about the turner diaries, just hearing them in my head You know the cops aren't about to let us out of here. My idea is that we make our play here and now while the eyes of the whole world are looking down on us.
BILLY: What exactly is it that you want the whole world to look down and see?
RAMSEY: This Constitutional holocaust. I love me country but I can't sit by and watch the Bill of Rights defiled by the A.T.F. The surrender of our military to the United Nations.
KATE: You're just mad as hell and you not going to take it anymore is that it?
ELKS: We live in a polluted tax system that supports junkie mothers and criminal fathers.
RAMSEY: $3.29 cents for corn flakes. $ 2.00 for milk. A half a gallon. This is a nation of abundance so why can't we feed our children. America has the, the finest doctors, the best equipment and that is out of our reach too. Just ask these people if you don't agree. But no one is able to make a stand. That is what tonight was all about.
ELKS: I work 16 hours a day and for every dollar I earn I take home less then half. Of course with all the immigrants your lucky to have a job. Red, yellow, brown, black give the whites our country back.
RAMSEY: The mission is the destruction of the current political infrastructure...
ELKS: By any means necessary.
KATE: Your quoting Malcolm X.
ELKS: I'm a freedom fighter.
KRONK: You are a poster child for capitol punishment.
ELKS: I say we kill them all now as traitors to their race and burn this market to the ground.
RAMSEY: I don't think so.
ELKS: Yes.
RAMSEY: I don't think so.
ELKS: It's not all your say.
RAMSEY: It is my say.
ELKS: It not all your say!
(Elks turns the radio station back on and we hear War by Pantera.)
(FBI makes their way to the market. Climbing up stairs and heading down an alley)
Cut back to market
KATE: There are non violent ways to motivate change you know!
ELKS: No time. Not when history can be changed with the pull of a trigger.
KATE: By killing these innocent people?
ELKS: Their co-conspirators to a corrupt government. If your not with us your against us.
BILLY: Stop it, Kate.
ELKS: Revolution has never been without bloodshed, that's a fact. Booth, Oswald, Ray.
KATE: Fool.
ELKS: Your an ugly blister you know that but I bet your one wild poke.
KATE: Get your hands off of me!
BILLY: Kate, let it go.
KATE: I'll let it go. I'll let it go. Fine. You must have been traumatized as a child.
Elks grabs Kate and throws her up against the wall pressing himself into her. And holding a gun at her neck.
