ICHABOD (CONT'D)<br />
Separate pictures which become <strong>one</strong><br />
picture in <strong>the</strong> spinning... Like <strong>the</strong><br />
truth which I must spin here...<br />
Katrina spins <strong>the</strong> disk, <strong>the</strong> bird appears in <strong>the</strong> cage.<br />
EXT. PHILIPSE HOUSE -- NIGHT<br />
A MOVING POV is checking out <strong>the</strong> Village House. Through lighted<br />
windows, figures <strong>of</strong> Men are seen pacing, apparently arguing.<br />
Philipse is packing his bags, moving out... while three Men, Steenwyck,<br />
Doctor Lancaster <strong>and</strong> Hardenbrook, are in agitated conference. Their<br />
raised voices make an undecipherable hubbub. The POV'S horse makes a<br />
horsey snuffling sound. Is it Daredevil?<br />
Steenwyck comes right to <strong>the</strong> window as if he has seen something... but<br />
he merely closes <strong>the</strong> shutters.<br />
The REVERSE shows that it is <strong>Ichabod</strong> who has been spying.<br />
<strong>Ichabod</strong> backs <strong>of</strong>f <strong>and</strong> mounts Gunpowder, looking thoughtful, <strong>the</strong>n<br />

EXT. ROAD OUTSIDE VILLAGE -- NIGHT<br />
A Mounted Man is approaching on a heavily loaded Pack Horse... Philipse<br />

<strong>Ichabod</strong> on Gunpowder intercepts him, grabbing <strong>the</strong> bridle <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Pack<br />

What are you running from,<br />
Magistrate Philipse?<br />
PHILIPSE<br />
Damn you, <strong>Crane</strong> --<br />
ICHABOD<br />
You'll raise <strong>the</strong> village.<br />
Philipse calms down.<br />
ICHABOD (CONT'D)<br />
You had a mind to help me.<br />
PHILIPSE<br />
Yes -- <strong>and</strong> I put myself in mortal<br />
dread <strong>of</strong>...<br />
Of... what?<br />
ICHABOD<br />
PHILIPSE<br />
Powers against which <strong>the</strong>re is no<br />
defense.<br />
ICHABOD<br />
How did you know <strong>the</strong> widow was<br />
expecting a child?<br />
She told me.<br />
PHILIPSE<br />
ICHABOD<br />
Then I deduce you are <strong>the</strong> fa<strong>the</strong>r.<br />
PHILIPSE<br />
I hope your deductions serve you<br />
better in your contest against <strong>the</strong><br />
Hessian. I am not <strong>the</strong> fa<strong>the</strong>r.<br />
ICHABOD<br />
Did she tell you <strong>the</strong> name <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong><br />
child's fa<strong>the</strong>r?<br />
PHILIPSE<br />
Yes -- she did. She came to me for<br />
advice -- as <strong>the</strong> town magistrate --<br />
<strong>Ichabod</strong> hears sounds... <strong>of</strong> sheep in agitation at some distance but he<br />
holds Philipse to his story.<br />
PHILIPSE (CONT'D)<br />
