                                                    #1001  EP. 7-12.


76.   INT. FOLEY'S WAREHOUSE:  LONG FULL  (DIFFERENT ANGLE)
      The Copperhead gets to his feet in front of the platform and
      Corey runs to him and dives.  The Copperhead tosses him over
      his shoulder and Corey lands on the platform, rolling.
      Meanwhile, Greg has gotten to his feet and is looking for the
      fallen gun among the steel drums when Jeff frees himself from
      the ropes and tackles him, falling through some crates to the
      floor.  As they rise Jeff slugs Greg, staggering him a little.
      Meanwhile, on the platform, The Copperhead lands two punches on
      Corey, who blocks a third and lands one on him sending him back
      against the wall or a very large crate.  Corey sees a knife
      lying on a barrel, picks it up and throws it at The Copperhead
      who ducks as it hits the wall where his head was.  As Corey
      runs to him he takes The Copperhead's punch, but picks up a
      stool and smashes it on him as The Copperhead holds up his arms
      and rolls to the floor with the blow.

77.   INT. FOLEY'S WAREHOUSE:  LONG FULL  (CHANGE ANGLE)
      Corey again takes the knife from where it stuck in the crate or
      wall and throws it at The Copperhead, who ducks it again and
      this time the knife hits the pulley rope, bouncing off O.S.
      The Copperhead immediately lunges at him landing two well
      placed punches.  Meanwhile, Jeff is struggling with Greg, who
      has picked up a club (piece of broken table or chair), and Jeff
      manages to push him away, landing two punches that send Greg
      back as he tosses the club at Jeff and misses.  Jeff returns
      with two punches but Greg lands another sending him back
      against the crate.  But, as Greg lunges at him, Jeff blocks the
      next punch and lands one on Greg sending him against another
      crate.  Greg returns with another punch on Jeff, who blocks
      another, and lands one punch sending Greg against the rest of
      the steel drums, then following with another that sends him
      smashing through them, and they scatter.  Meanwhile, on the
      platform, The Copperhead lands three consecutive punches on
      Corey as the SOUND of the scattering drums COMES OVER.  Greg
      and Jeff get to their feet and Greg lands two punches sending
      Jeff down again atop the overturned crate, where Greg struggles
      with him, as Jeff looks O.S. at Joan's impending doom.
      Meanwhile, The Copperhead knocks Corey down near the edge of
      the platform and dives onto him.  They struggle, but Corey
      catches The Copperhead looking at Joan's problem and lands a
      punch on him.
