And now we can get into how Scene 19 plays in the original draft:
End of scene. And in ways what is to come with rewrites is still close to what originally was. Originally, Willie doesn't read the riddle to Maggie because he's already read it before she arrives - but he comes on to Maggie, he claims he's going to figure out where the missing jewels are, and he wants Maggie to go away with him once he does...
19 INT. COTTAGE - NIGHT 19 Willie, frowning, opens the door. He sees Maggie. He immediately smiles. WILLIE So you finally decided to accept my invite. MAGGIE (she enters) I'm hunting David, Willie. WILLIE Oh come on, Maggie. We got more to talk about than him. MAGGIE (turning) If he's not been here -- WILLIE (stopping her) Why aren't you nicer to me? We could make life here one hell of a lot better. MAGGIE I don't think so, Willie. He grabs her, holds her. WILLIE Leave with me. I'm going to get the missing jewels. Steal them right away from those jerks up in the big house. Look, I found this...in an open chest...it hadn't been opened in a hundred years. I bet I'll figure out where they are. I swear I will. Then we can go away -- ROGER (O.S.) Loomis! |
