SERVANCE
It doesn't matter. It's all been done. I've heard it all before. Can't have you thinking you're killing innocents, can we?
Servance sits back, revolver still trained on the Hitman's head.
SERVANCE
Your Agency is a rival of my own organization. Albert was my best hitman. Well...
He looks at the Hitman meaningfully.
SERVANCE
...second best now.
The Hitman frowns.
SERVANCE
Your Agency has been playing you like a cheap hired hand... feeding you select bullshit when you needed 'facts'. What a sucker you've been played for.
The Hitman is still silent.
SERVANCE
I'm not a vindictive man 47. I offer you a place in my agency of authority, to make up for the late Albert. Your answer?
Immediately the Hitman tips Servance's desk over, startling him. The Hitman reaches over to grip Servance's gun hand, twists it around to meet his temple and squeezes his trigger finger.
Servance's skull is blown open.
CLOSE UP on the Hitman as an almost invisible mist of blood splatters on his shirt.
Severance slumps to the floor, his hand still gripping his gun. Blood is splattered across the wall opposite and begins to slowly streak down in long sheets.
The Hitman stands and moves out into the hall.
INT. SECOND FLOOR- DAY
The Hitman hurries down the stairs, leaving the door open in his rush. The Hitman jogs down the stairs.
INT. THE AGENCY- DAY
The bloodstream effect returns. We see a monitor where the body of Servance is seen slumped over next to his toppled desk. The Operator and the Agent watch intently.
OPERATOR
Unorthodox...
AGENT
It doesn't change anything. The order has gone out. Lobo will not take any contrary orders until his target lies dead by his hand.
The CAMERA PANS to show another monitor, this one showing the Hitman making his to the reception area.
INT. THE ORPHANAGE- DAY
The Hitman gives a nod at the receptionist before leaving via the revolving door.
EXT. ABOVE THE STREETS- DAY
From Lobo's POV we watch as the Hitman walks a few steps away before Lobo's hand comes into view holding the remote detonator we saw earlier. He keys in '313' and presses the red button to the side.
EXT. THE STREETS- DAY
The CAMERA CAREENS to the ORPHANAGE. Milliseconds after, the front of the orphanage bursts into liquid fire, sending a meters high plume of flame into the sky. The Hitman, only feet away from the entrance is sent tumbling forward by the blast, along with nearby bystanders.
>p>EXTREME CLOSE UP on his eyes as he looks behind him at the orphanage, shock playing upon his face.
A second EXPLOSION occurs, sending another wall of flame into the sky.
INT. THE AGENCY- DAY
The bloodstream effect returns.
We see the explosions on a nearby monitor.
