OUTSIDE<br />

Bud...<br />

EXLEY<br />

BUD<br />

If I let you go, there'll be ten<br />

more lawyers to take your place<br />

tomorrow. They just won't <strong>com</strong>e on<br />

the bus, that's all.<br />

We hear Loew's PANT LEG TEARING loose.<br />

LOEW<br />

Okay! You're right! Dudley's got<br />

photos of me and Reynolds.<br />

EXLEY<br />

What's Dudley's scheme?<br />

More TEARING. Loew's life may depend on the answer.<br />

INNER OFFICE<br />

LOEW<br />

Dudley's rotten to the core. He's<br />

taking over Mickey Cohen's<br />

rackets, his own hand-picked<br />

cops'll be the new franchise<br />

holders. Because of those<br />

pictures I won't be able to<br />

prosecute. Oh Jesus pull me up!<br />

Exley helps pull Loew back inside. Bud dumps him on the<br />

floor. Bruised and bloodied, Loew looks up at Exley.<br />

LOEW<br />

Dudley's got everyone under his<br />

thumb. Not just me, but the Chief<br />

of Police, the lieutenant<br />

governor, everybody!<br />

Exley pulls his .38, shoves it into the side of Loew's<br />

neck.<br />

EXLEY<br />

NOT EVERYBODY. You tip-off Dudley<br />

and Officer White visits you alone<br />

next time.<br />

Loew looks at Bud, nods, his face a bloody mess.<br />

EXT. CITY OFFICE BUILDING - DAY<br />

Exley and Bud exit. Bud's wheels are turning.
