                                                    #1001  EP. 10-5.


23.   CONTINUED:

           RANKIN:

           What's it for?

           COREY:  (smiling)

           We're going to trip a trap.

DISSOLVE TO:

24.   EXT. PEARL-ELM GARAGE:  LONG FULL
      A small, dark panel truck pulls into the lot and comes to a
      stop near the rear corner of the building.  Bob gets out of the
      truck and enters the building.  CAMERA PANS QUICKLY to opposite
      side of lot and HOLDS on the heavies' car #2 with Corey and
      Greg seated in it.

25.   COVER CUT OF BOB

26.   EXT. PEARL-ELM GARAGE:  CLOSE FULL 2 SHOT  (INT. CAR #2)
      Greg is seated next to Corey, who is driving.  Greg holds in
      his lap a box-like device, presumably the radar sending unit.

           COREY:

           Now, see if you can see the beauty of this plan.  Wayne
           is going to use that panel truck to pick up the........
           what-ever-it-is tube just across King's Crossing Bridge.
           Rankin is sending Dale to the bridge to plant a cell bomb.
           A biggie.  Now, we don't use the control device this time.
           We plant that radar thing under the truck, and when it
           goes over the bridge, it'll trigger the bomb, see.

           GREG:

           Yeah, but how do we know it won't be triggered ahead
           of time by somebody else?

           COREY:

           Because it takes a certain radar impulse to set it off.
           Regular radar won't do it.  Just a strong signal at a
           short distance.  That's why it won't go off until the
           truck is right over the spot.  Now, go hook it up under
           the truck!
