War Of The Worlds

Happy Monday, crime busters! It's once again time to take a trip to the dark side, where the drinks are cold, the chicks are hot, and the action is non-stop, right here, at the coolest crime joint in cyberspace ... at That Killing Feeling.

In today's action-packed chapter from NOWHERE GIRLS, agents on the lam April Street and Cherry Nation make their escape on the stolen Harley chopper and head toward Honey Almond's underground lair beneath Mann's Chinese Theater in Hollywood. Meanwhile, FBI agents Max Cargo and Sunday Sparks interview the biker who owns the Harley ...


EXT. VENICE BOULEVARD - NIGHT
April drives the big chopper, Cherry sits behind her.

ON THE MOTORCYCLE
Cherry SHOUTS above the roar of the engine.

CHERRY
Can’t you go any faster?

APRIL
And get pulled over by the cops?

CHERRY
Maybe we should take the freeway --

APRIL
Gonna be swarming with Feds.
Best to take Venice.
Almost as fast at this hour.
Then we’ll shoot up LaBrea.

CHERRY
Okay, just HURRY.

APRIL
Don’t worry,
we’re gonna get your kids,
AND clear our names --

CHERRY
And then I’m DONE.

APRIL
What? Are you KIDDING ME?
You can’t quit NOW.
We’re a TEAM -- we’re SISTERS.

CHERRY
You mean 'blood is thicker than water?'

APRIL
HELL, yeah -- RIGHT?

CHERRY
Let me get back to you on that --

INT. MAX’S SUV - MOVING - AT THAT MOMENT
Max drives. Sees something out the window.

MAX
Hey. There’s the DWP VAN --

SUNDAY
They must have switched vehicles.

MAX
No shit. Check out the guy on the lawn.

EXT. CUL DE SAC - CONTINUOUS
The SUV stops. Sunday and Max JUMP out.
RACE over to Nasty Biker.

Sunday gets down on one knee.
SLAPS him in the face.

SUNDAY
Hey, Peter Fonda, WAKE UP.

POT-BELLIED NASTY BIKER
(opens his eyes)
HEY.

He slowly gets up. Rubs his jaw.

POT-BELLIED NASTY BIKER
Who the fuck are YOU?

MAX
FBI.

POT-BELLIED NASTY BIKER
Thank fucking god.

SUNDAY
What happened?

POT-BELLIED NASTY BIKER
(points)
These two chicks came by in that van,
one of ‘em was that porn star
La Cienega Boulevard.
Said they were Homeland Security
and that they were bein’ chased by somebody,
and could they take my hog.
I said sure, if I could come along and help.
Then they fucking CLOCKED ME and STOLE it.

MAX
Two women, twins, super-hot?

POT-BELLIED NASTY BIKER
That’s them. Who’s chasing them?

SUNDAY
We are.
(off his look)
It’s a long story --
(to Max)
Alert Sky Sat, STAT.

Max nods. Pulls out his cell.
Punches a number. Listens.

MAX
Yeah, hey. This is agent Cargo.
They’re on a motorcycle.
Heading from this location to Hollywood.
Track all major thoroughfares
and send every agent you have
to Mann’s Chinese Theater, got it?
(listens)
Thanks. We’re on our way.

He clicks the phone shut.

POT-BELLIED NASTY BIKER
Mann’s Chinese Theater?
What’s going on THERE?

SUNDAY
Ever seen 'War of the Worlds?'
