Eli is about to inquire further when Samuel cries:<br />
SAMUEL<br />
Momma – look.<br />
They glance in the direction Samuel is looking.<br />
THEIR POV – BOOK'S CAR<br />
The car has failed to take a bend in the road and is now bouncing<br />
across an adjoining ploughed field. It's knocked over a tall<br />
birdhouse <strong>by</strong> the roadside. The car finally <strong>com</strong>es to rest against a<br />
bank of earth.<br />
BACK TO RACHEL<br />
She stares...<br />
EXT. FIELD – DAY<br />
CUT TO:<br />
As Samuel races for all he's worth across the field, negotiates<br />
the creek via a fallen log – Rachel, now, also running toward the<br />
car.<br />
EXT. STABLES – DAY<br />
Eli works fast harnessing his mules to an open wagon. He hops up<br />
to the front seat and urges them to trot.<br />
ANGLE AT BOOK'S CAR<br />
We see that Rachel has made Book as <strong>com</strong>fortable as possible in the<br />
front seat of the car and is packing the wound under his<br />
trenchcoat with material ripped from her apron. Momentarily he<br />
<strong>com</strong>es awake:<br />
RACHEL<br />
But John... why didn't you go to a<br />
hospital?<br />
BOOK<br />
No, no doctor...<br />
But why?<br />
RACHEL<br />
(bewildered)<br />
BOOK<br />
Gunshot... they'll file reports... they'll<br />
find me.<br />
But –<br />
RACHEL
