Two Winters Past


Scene 33

EXT. FOREST

POPPER leads VALENTINE along a dirt road.

VALENTINE: Where you from?

POPPER: I was working on a drill pad down in Pennsylvania. Came up from Texas at the end of the winter before. I heard people were holding out up here, so I came looking for gainful employment.

VALENTINE: How is PA?

POPPER: Hatfields and McCoys. Everyone shooting at everyone. Foreigners ain’t welcome.

VALENTINE: Sounds familiar.

A gunshot sounds and a round goes over their heads. VALENTINE ducks. POPPER turns. CHANGO aims a pistol at them. His skin is ruddy and his clothes dirty.

POPPER: I should have known, Chango.

CHANGO: You killed Grant.

POPPER: You killed Hazard first.

CHANGO: If you knew, maybe we’d cut you some consideration.

POPPER: Should we put our guns down?

CHANGO: Don’t matter. Remmy’s coming. You ain’t walking out of this.

VALENTINE stands.

CHANGO: Nice gun you got there.

While Chango is distracted, POPPER shoots, but misses. CHANGO shoots back, VALENTINE scrambles for cover behind rocks.

POPPER: Take the shot! Finish him off, Val!

POPPER shoots from cover. CHANGO pursues.
