[TITLE UP - 6:55 A.M.]

[EXT. HENRY'S DRIVEWAY - DAY]

[WE SEE HENRY putting a paper bag filled with guns into the trunk of his car. We hear the loud noise of a helicopter. WE SEE HENRY look up. WE SEE a red helicopter. HENRY slams the trunk closed. We hear the helicopter.]

HENRY *V.O.*: I was going to be busy all day. I had to drop off some thirty-eights at Jimmy's to match some silencers he had gotten. I had to pick up my brother at the hospital and drive him back to the house for dinner and then I had to pick up some new Pittsburgh stuff for Judy to fly down to some customers I had near Atlanta

[INT. HENRY'S CAR]

[CLOSE UP - HENRY'S FACE as he drives he sees the helicopter.]

[EXT. JIMMY'S DOORWAY - HENRY FULL FACE, CAR IN BG]

[WE SEE JIMMY grab one of the guns in his doorway and try to screw on a silencer he had in his pocket. He can't.]

JIMMY: What fucking good are these things? They don't fit. What do I need this for? I'm not paying for this shit

HENRY *V.O.*: Right away I knew he didn't want them. I knew I was going to get stuck for the money. I only bought the damn guns because he wanted them. And now, he didn't want them. I didn't say a thing. Jimmy was so pissed he didn't even say goodbye

CUT TO: HENRY patting torn bag with guns back into car trunk

[TITLE UP - 8:05 A.M.]

[EXT. HENRY'S CAR - DAY]

[WE SEE HENRY speeding toward top of a rise in highway approaching Queens Midtown Tunnel.]

[INT. HENRY'S CAR - DAY]

HENRY *V.O.*: I knew my Pittsburgh guys always wanted guns, and since I was going to see them later in the afternoon to pick up a delivery, I was pretty sure I'd get my money back

[HENRY looks up and sees the red helicopter. When he looks back at the road he is suddenly confronted with a huge traffic jam spread out before him.]

[WE SEE him jam his foot on the brakes.]

[TITLE UP - 8:45 A.M.]

[INT. HOSPITAL ROOM - DAY]

[A bedraggled HENRY arrives in his brother, MICHAEL'S, room. MICHAEL is all dressed and sitting in his wheel-chair, waiting to go.]

HENRY *V.O.*: When I finally got there to pick up Michael, his doctor wanted to put me in bed. I told him about the accident. I said I was partying all night

[CLOSE UP - PILLS IS HENRY'S PALM]

HENRY *V.O.*: He took mercy on me. He gave me ten milligrams of Valium and sent me home. My plan was to drop off my brother at the house and pick up Karen

[INT. HENRY'S CAR - DAY]

[WE SEE HENRY driving MICHAEL. HENRY looks up and sees the red helicopter.]

HENRY *to Michael*: I think that helicopter's following me

MICHAEL: Are you nuts?

[INT. HENRY'S KITCHEN - DAY]

[HE SEE MICHAEL, in his wheelchair, chopping celery. WE SEE HENRY making meatballs. JUDY WICKS is also there, helping KAREN shell peas. JUDY's overnight bag is on the kitchen table, surrounded by food. The CHILDREN are playing on the kitchen floor.]

HENRY *V.O.*: I was cooking dinner that night. I had to start braising the beef, pork butt and veal shanks for the tomato sauce. It's Michael's Favorite. I was making ziti with the meat gravy, and I'm planning to roast some peppers over the flames, and I was putting on some string beans with the olive oil and garlic, and I had some beautiful cutlets, cut just right, that I was going to fry up before dinner just as an appetizer. I was home for about an hour. My plan was to Start the dinner early, so Karen and I could go unload the guns that Jimmy didn't want, and get the package for Judy to take to Atlanta latex that night. I kept looking out the window and the helicopter was gone. I asked Michael to watch the sauce, and Karen and I started out
