Hurst and the othors enter, dripping with eggs. They push their way through a crowd of distraught citi2en5 who are complaining loudly to a bunch of old, tired, defeated cops. They pass the Merchant we met in the opening scene.

Mauser stops Hurst. Mhile they talk we can see a member of the gang in the b.g., casually breaking into the pre- cinct's candy machine 1.1ithacrowbar. No one seems to notice as the coins fall out and hit the floor.

They stand back. Sistrunk is looking at Mahoney, trying to figure out who he is.

They obey. Mahoney points the REVOLVER at thP.front tire of the car and FIRES. He quickly moves around the car, SHOOTING out all four tires. He FIRES another SHOT in the air.

He takes off running. Flacko and Mojo catch up with him. Mahoney FIRES the last SHOT into the air, then throws the pistol back toward the car.

Zed is aiming a black .~5 automatic at Mahoney. Flacko andMojo stand back.

Zed turns the gun on Flacko.

Mahoney sees a slim chance and kicks Zed in the crotch as hard as he can. Incredibly, Zed is unfa2ed. His face twists with rage.

Jones and Hightower cross the bridge, sneaking so as not to alert the gang inside. Jones still carries bullhorn.
