                                                    #1001  EP. 3-14.

63.   INT. HEAVIES' APARTMENT:  CLOSE FULL
      On The Copperhead as he kneels beside Joan, still covering the
      O.S. heavies, and begins to untie the ropes.  Suddenly the
      object kicked by Greg flies into scene and knocks the gun from
      his hand.

64.   INT. HEAVIES' APARTMENT:  LONG FULL   (FIGHT ROUTINE)
      As The Copperhead loses his gun, the N.D., who is closest to
      him, attacks with a punch which The Copperhead returns,
      knocking him aside, just as Greg starts for him, but is downed
      in F.G. by three quick punches.  Corey leaps in and slugs The
      Copperhead who returns the punch sending him back smashing a
      small table, just as the N.D. turns The Copperhead around and
      lands two punches, knocking him back against the big table,
      and he returns a punch that sends the N.D. against the timer
      mechanism, starting it.  The Copperhead grabs him, and knocks
      him down and out at the foot of the table with two punches,
      just as Greg runs in again with a punch on The Copperhead who
      returns it with two more, as he backs into the small table
      again, and Greg topples over an easy chair in F.G.  Corey runs
      into the fight and lands two blows which send The Copperhead
      over into another easy chair, where Corey dives onto him, and
      they both tip over falling on the floor.  As they get to their
      feet, The Copperhead hits Corey knocking him over near Joan,
      and as he follows up on it, Corey returns the blow, sending
      The Copperhead against the wall, where he blocks the next
      punch, and lands one on Corey knocking him down and out.

      (FIGHT TRACK TO THIS POINT FROM "PURPLE MONSTER" EP. 7 END)
      (MATCH TRACK AND SWITCH HERE)

65.   INT. HEAVIES' APARTMENT:  LONG FULL  (DIFFERENT ANGLE)
      Greg gets to his feet and runs over to The Copperhead catching
      him off guard and landing a punch which sends him smashing
      into an end table against the wall.  Greg grabs him and as he
      rises, he slugs Greg knocking him to B.G. and following up on
      him, blocking a punch from Greg and landing one on his jaw,
      followed by a stomach punch, and an uppercut, sending him down.
      Corey meanwhile has gotten to his feet and throws two small
      vases nearby at The Copperhead, who ducks them one at a time,
      and they smash against the wall in B.G., as Greg gets to his
      feet and The Copperhead slugs him, knocking him to the floor
      near the door, and turns in time to duck another vase hurled
      by Corey.  He then dives onto Corey and both hit the floor,
      struggling.  They roll over with Corey on top, and The
      Copperhead pushes him away, then kicking him backward into
      some piece of wooden furniture, smashing it.  The Copperhead
      runs to him, pulling him to his feet, and blocks a punch,
      landing one of his own, staggering him a little.
