Two Winters Past


Scene 12


EXT. TREELINE

HELLER recovers from the punch. JIMMY wags his finger in Heller's face.

JIMMY: Shut up!

COLE: Knock it off.

JIMMY: You ain’t a war-time general, Cole.

ZACH: The prince said stop! He might be king some day. King before me.

COLE crouches before HELLER. He looks at the ground, takes a deep breath, looks at HELLER.

COLE: We can’t send you back to Turner. I told you to keep moving.

Moaning and scratching is very loud from inside barn.

Reaction: HELLER is horrified.

HELLER: Blythe was right.

JIMMY draws a pistol, puts it to HELLER’s head.

JIMMY: Give the order, Cole. 

COLE:  Tell me your name.

JIMMY: Call him Heller.

COLE: Shut up.

HELLER: Vince. My name is Vince.

COLE: Do it, Jimmy.

JIMMY tenses. HELLER squeezes his eyes shut.

ZACH: Stop.

JIMMY backs away. ZACH points to the barn door. 

ZACH: We ain’t wasting bullets.

COOLEYS cross to barn door. COLE draws pistol, aims it at HELLER. ZACH tackles COLE. COLE shoots but doesn't hit anything. 

COLE: Don’t you do it! Not like that!
