Sample dialogue
Don't be naive. They can't kill everybody. They have different punishments for different things. Like, if they kill a stool pidgeon, they leave a canary on the body. It's symbolic.
scene 12 — INT. PALANTINE HEADQUARTERSYou forgot "sexy".
scene 7 — EXT. CHARLES PALANTINE CAMPAIGN HEADQUARTERSWell, if Cronkite's so great, why don't we run him instead?
scene 7 — EXT. CHARLES PALANTINE CAMPAIGN HEADQUARTERSWell, If he had been Italian, they could have been shot off. Sometimes the mob does that to teach guys a lesson, If they blow a job or something.
scene 12 — INT. PALANTINE HEADQUARTERSAnd in some other places too...
