Sample dialogue
Tell him Jopling says, “Come home.” Pause. The woman nods. Jopling turns away and walks over to a black motorcycle parked at the corner. MR. MOUSTAFA (V.O.) -- but one thing was certain: the Desgoffe und Taxis were a very powerful family -- Jopling puts on a pair of goggles, kick-starts his engine, revs the motor, and rumbles away. The woman shuts the door and locks the bolt. CUT TO: Jopling racing his howling motorcycle through the center of the city at midnight. Under the goggles, his eyes are calm. MR. MOUSTAFA (V.O.) -- and time was not on our side. INT. MESS HALL. NIGHT Another evening meal. The full assembled staff sits at the long table, anxious and curious, murmuring. The cook waits, uncertain, gripping a cauldron by his oven-mitts. A door swings open.
