                             EPISODE EIGHT

FADE IN:

 1.   INT. FOLEY'S WAREHOUSE:  MEDIUM FULL
      Jeff, lying on top of the crate and struggling with Greg, sees
      the huge shipping crate about to topple over onto Joan and
      kicks one of the fallen steel drums, which rolls O.S.  For a
      LATER CUT Greg knocks Jeff down and out, exiting O.S.

 2.   INT. FOLEY'S WAREHOUSE:  MEDIUM FULL
      On Joan lying on the floor below the platform as the steel drum
      rolls into scene next to her and the crate crashes down.  The
      drum catches the force of the impact so that her body is
      bridged by the crate.


      (THE ABOVE SCENES ARE THE TAKEOUT AND CUT INTO THE OVERLAP)


 3.   INT. FOLEY'S WAREHOUSE:  MEDIUM CLOSE
      As The Copperhead gets to his feet with Corey, in a brief
      exchange of punches The Copperhead is knocked backward to the
      floor.  Corey turns and runs O.S.

 4.   INT. FOLEY'S WAREHOUSE:  LONG FULL
      Greg runs into scene as Corey leaps from the platform and joins
      him in running for the door.  For a LATER CUT The Copperhead
      leaps to the floor, picks up his fallen gun and runs for the
      door, exiting.

 5.   EXT. FOLEY'S WAREHOUSE:  LONG FULL
      Corey and Greg ENTER from inside the warehouse and run out of
      scene.  For a LATER CUT The Copperhead also comes out of the
      warehouse and runs a few steps after the heavies, firing at
      them.  He turns and starts back inside, but stops at the door,
      reacts to what he sees inside, then runs off to corner of
      building.

 6.   COVER CUT FOR ABOVE ACTION

 7.   INT. FOLEY'S WAREHOUSE:  LONG CLOSE
      Jeff awakes, gets to his feet and looks around a bit.  He then
      remembers Joan lying under the crate and rushes to her.  He
      helps her slide out from under the bridged crate and helps her
      to her feet.
