70.   CONTINUED:

      The Copperhead follows through with another punch which sends
      Corey smashing through a small table in the corner, and down.
      The Raven then runs for the outer door as Jeff and Greg get to
      their feet and Jeff knocks Greg out of scene to B.G., following
      through as The Copperhead runs through after The Raven, spins
      him around and slugs him, knocking him back into a corner of
      the wall near the door.  As The Copperhead lunges for him again
      The Raven blocks his punch and lands one of his own, knocking
      The Copperhead to the floor in F.G.  The Raven then picks up
      two bottles and throws them at The Copperhead, who ducks them
      one at a time, and they smash O.S.  As The Copperhead gets to
      his feet in F.G., Jeff in B.G. slugs Greg again, knocking him
      toward CAMERA just as The Raven hurls a third bottle at The
      Copperhead, who again ducks, and then dives onto The Raven,
      both hitting the floor.  The Copperhead and The Raven roll
      around on the floor, and during the struggle for possession of
      the plans one of The Raven's gloves comes off and The
      Copperhead sees a ring that he's wearing.  The Raven kicks The
      Copperhead to the floor, then throws a small crate at him which
      smashes on the floor next to him.

      Jeff blocks a punch from Greg and knocks him out as Corey gets
      to his feet behind Jeff, turns him around and slugs him twice.
      But Jeff blocks the third punch and lands one that sends Corey
      back against another table in F.G., where he then jumps Corey
      and they struggle on the floor.  Meanwhile, The Copperhead has
      gone near the WIRED doorway and picked up Corey's fallen gun,
      which has been seen by Greg, who picks up a screwdriver and
      throws it at him.  It can be HEARD sticking in the wall.  The
      Copperhead comes back by blocking a punch from Greg and
      slugging him.
