DREYFUSS
We are dangerous revolutionaries, and I am the
ringleader. I DEMAND that you take me in!
RAY
Hey, look who’s crossing the street. Gloria! GLORIA! Up here!
She’s my new lady friend...
Holy shit! WATCH OUT!
He waves before turning to
Bob and Dreyfuss.
He turns back to the window.
The sound of tires
SCREECHING.
Did you see that? That idiot almost ran down my baby.
ARE YOU OK, BABY?!! Man, close call...
I’ll be right back.
He starts for the door.
Ray runs out. Bob gets busy,
pouring another cup of
coffee, shuffling through
files, etc., before
remembering Dreyfuss is still
with him.
BOB
So, Albert—uh, Mister Dreyfuss—unless Detective
Fortuna comes back in and tells me you’re some kind of
terrorist in disguise, I think we’re going to have to
let you go... Have a nice day.
I’m not moving.
DREYFUSS
He holds out his hands to be
cuffed.
