In the Sewer
Elwood: I sure hope this thing
leads some place.
Jake: Elwood. We're gone man.
[The "Mystery Woman" loosens off a round of machine
gun fire. They hit the ground]
Elwood: Who is that girl?
Woman: Well Jake. You like just fine down there,
slithering in the mud like vermin.
Jake:
[To Elwood] No problem.
Woman: You're not gonna get away from me this
time.
[she fires again... still missing them]
[In the ballroom, Mr Mercer hears the gunshots]
Mr Mercer: [To officers] Check
that out. Let's go. Come on.
[Back in the sewer]
Jake: [To Woman] It's good to see you
sweetheart.
Woman: You contemptible pig. I remained celebate
for you. I stood at the back of a cathedral, waiting in celibacy
for you, with 300 friends and relatives in attendance. My uncle
hired the best Romanian caterer in the state. To obtain the seven
limousines for the wedding party my father used up his last
favours with Mad Pete Trollo. So for me, for my mother, my
grandmother, my father, my uncle and for the common good, I must
now kill you and your brother.
[Jake gets up and slowly walks towards her.]
Jake: [Falling to his knees before her] Oh
please don't kill us. Please, please don't kill us. You know I
love ya baby, I wouldn't leave ya. It wasn't my fault.
Women: You miserable slug. You think you can
talk you're way out of this? You betrayed me.
Jake: No I didn't. Honest. I ran outta gas. I
had a flat tyre. I didn't have enough money for cab fare. My tux
didn't come back from the cleaners. An old friend came in from
outta town. Someone stole my car. There was an earthquake, a
terrible flood, locust's. It wasn't my fault!! I swear to God!!
Woman: Oh Jake, Jake, honey.
[Jake embraces her in a passionate kiss, then drops her in
the mud.]
Jake: [To Elwood] Let's go.
Elwood: [To the Woman] Take it easy.
[They run down the passage to the car. She follows in the
distance.]
Elwood: It's a 106 miles to Chicago. We got a
full tank of gas, half a pack of cigarettes, it's dark and we're
wearing sunglasses.
Jake: Hit it!
[The Woman runs out of the duct and fires at the moving car.
The policemen above hear the shots and also start shooting at the
car.]
