Meetings All Day
Scene 1:
Outside of a biker bar, the sign over the door says “Dante’s”. A row of motorcycles are lined up along the front indicating that the place is packed.
FX: Ring! Ring!
Pepe: (from French) Hello? Yes, it is I Pepe.
Fletcher: Do as I say if you want to live.
Pepe: Pardon?
FX: click.
Scene 2:
Big fat Pepe is sitting in the back office with a floozy on his lap and the dead phone in his hand.
Floozy: Who was that baby?
Pepe: …
Scene 3:
Kane, in full bug form, bursts through the back wall of the bar. With one hand he slaps the floozy off of Pepe’s lap and with the other he throws the fat Frenchman over his shoulder. In the next moment he is back out the way he came.
Scene 4:
Fletcher and Shanahan are hiding in an alley across the street from the bar. Fletcher is carrying a cell phone. Bikers are coming out of the bar and running around. Eventually some get on their bikes and take off in both directions down the road.
Shanahan: I think that’s the signal.
Fletcher: After everyone clears out, you go in the front, I’ll take the back. I want to go though the place, especially Pepe’s office.
Shanahan: Got it.
Scene 5:
Kane is carrying Pepe below him as he flies up through the clouds. Pepe is screaming his lungs out. The bug appears to be smiling.
Scene 6:
Shanahan is standing over a few knocked out bikers massaging his knuckles. Fletcher is in the office working at the computer.
Fletcher: Damn it, I can’t get past this encryption. We are gonna have to bring this stuff to Madeline. Her people can crack it.
Shanahan: Is it time?
Fletcher: Oh, right.
Scene 7:
Fletcher pulls out his cell phone and makes a call. High above Montréal Kane is holding Pepe at arms length; with the other hand he’s carrying a ringing cell phone. He puts the phone to Pepe’s ear.
Fletcher: A few days ago, you received a call from Chip “The Chopper” Chapman. You told him about the heroin shipment and he told us. Chapman made a mistake and told Boucher what he did. He will pay for that. Now it’s your turn. Boucher has doubtlessly changed his plans. You will reveal them to me now. Your life depends on it.
Pepe: I’ll tell you everything! Don’t let me die like this! I know where the drugs are!
Fletcher: Excellent. Take my associate to them. Now.
Pepe: It’s like three hours away…
Fletcher: Do it or die.
FX: Click.
Pepe: …take highway 15 north…
Scene 8:
Back in the Montreal hotel room: The XTF-3 Madeline and Gerard are going over printouts and laptops.
Madeline: This intelligence from “Dante’s” is excellent. It’s going to take time for our forensic accountants to go through it…
Gerard: I’m more interested in Kane’s report, did you find the heroin?
Kane: Heroin is the least of our worries, gentlemen (and lady). Pepe took me to a lumber yard three hours north of Montreal. They have a number of buildings there where the cut trees into planks. No big deal right. But in building number six, it’s a different story. A different truck pulls up, but planks still come out. I had a closer look and…
Madeline: They are disguising the heroin to look like wood, and shipping it to the states to hide it. Boucher must have really been scared when he learned we were on to him.
Kane: Exactly.
Gerard: If the Americans find out how much H is crossing the boarder, they’ll shut the whole thing down.
Kane: Costing us 100’s of millions of dollars a day, as the politicians drag their heels to figure it out.
Shanahan: I ran the plates on the truck. It belongs to a farmer who lives close to the mill. We should go check it out right away.
Gerard: This farm isn’t close to any water ways. They must be flying it in. But we would have detected that much air traffic…
Fletcher: Let’s go find out what this farmer’s been growing.
Gerard: By the way Kane. What did you do with Pepe?
Kane: I let him go.
