FRANCIS (CONT’D)<br />
That version is dead. Erase every<br />
copy on every computer.<br />
FRANCIS (CONT’D)<br />
(as he goes)<br />
Call me if you need anything.<br />
And Francis is out the door. We follow him. He turns to us.<br />
FRANCIS (CONT’D)<br />
(to the camera)<br />
Busy work for poor old Blythe.<br />
Eventually I’ll have to re-write<br />
the bill myself. Not because I<br />
care what’s in it. I only care<br />
about where it gets me. And if it<br />
gets me rubbing shoulders with<br />
Walker again, it’s served its<br />
purpose. But to do that I need a<br />
bill I can pass. Ideology is for<br />
standing still on a soapbox. I<br />
never stand still. I want<br />
momentum.<br />
INT. HOTEL ROOM - NIGHT<br />
TIGHT on the door. A knock. A moment later the door opens,<br />
revealing the CALL-GIRL we saw with Russo the night before.<br />
She’s wearing a long overcoat and heels. CUT TO to Stamper.<br />
STAMPER<br />
Come on in.<br />
The Call-Girl takes a look around the room, impressed. She<br />
unzips her overcoat. Let’s it fall to the ground. She’s<br />
only wearing panties underneath.<br />
Stamper pulls an enormous wad out <strong>of</strong> his jacket pocket.<br />
Tosses it to her. She starts to flip through the wad.<br />
STAMPER (CONT’D)<br />
Ten thousand dollars. What will<br />
that get me?<br />
She eyes him, a little frightened.<br />
CALL-GIRL<br />
I mean I’m kinky, but I don’t know<br />
if I’m the girl you’re looking for.<br />
