Hey there, crime kids. Happy Monday. It's time once again to take a trip to the dark side, where your most violent fantasies become sins of the flesh, right here, where the hardboiled action is non-stop, at the coolest crime joint in cyberspace ... at That Killing Feeling.

In Chapter 15 of LEGS, Episode 2, private eye Carrie Love and the cops surround Israeli crime boss Nuri Hadar's Venice Beach safe house ... just as Nuri and his sons jump into action and plot a daring escape ...


INT. NURI’S SAFE HOUSE - LIVING ROOM - DAY
Leron sits at table,
hunched over Yago’s laptop.

Nuri and Tal sit on
either side of him, watching.

Leron smiles.
Points.

LERON
Is Marnie’s Friendbook page.

Nuri and Leron
crane their necks to look.

TAL
She has four-thousand friends?

LERON
(points)
Is because of risque photo
on profile.

NURI
Is disgraceful.
She’s hardly wearing any clothing.

LERON
Well, is taken at beach --

NURI
But is just string on bottom.

TAL
Is called thong, pop.

OUTSIDE
Carrie, Bernie, Meg, Mike and Clifford
huddle in front of the garage
facing the street.

CARRIE
Okay.
There’s only three exits --
(to Mike and Clifford)
You two stay here
and watch the garage.
(off their nods)
Bernie, you go around the back
and cover the exit onto the beach.
(off his nod)
Meg and I will go the front door.

MEGAN
This time with our guns drawn.

INSIDE THE HOUSE
Tal works the mouse.
Points at the screen.

LERON
Over here is where I send her
‘private message.’

TAL
What are you gonna say?

LERON
I invite her to big,
Hollywood party,
but I have to give
invitation in person.

NURI
Brilliant.
You are chip off
new kids of block.
(to Tal)
You get detective’s address?

TAL
Like taking blintz from baby.

IN BACK OF THE HOUSE
Bernie takes position
near the rear entrance.

AT THE GARAGE
Mike and Clifford face the garage doors,
guns drawn.

AT THE FRONT DOOR
Carrie and Meg stand
on either side of the door,
guns at the ready.

Carrie leans over,
RINGS the buzzer.

INSIDE THE HOUSE
The doorbell RINGS.
Nuri, Tal and Leron look.

NURI
Who could that be?

LERON
Probably one of Yago’s
loser friends.

NURI
(to Tal)
Go get rid of them.

Tal nods. Jumps up.
Trots off toward the front door.

NURI
(to Leron)
Speaking of Yago,
where IS that lazy fuck?

OUTSIDE
Carrie PRESSES the buzzer again.

TAL (O.C.)
(electronic)
Hello?
Who is there?

MEGAN
This is the POLICE.
We’ve got the place SURROUNDED.
Open the door, NOW.

TAL (O.C.)
Hold on a sec.
Be right with you.

Carrie and Meg exchange glances.
Carrie grabs her cell phone.

Punches a number.
Listens.

BERNIE’S
Phone rings.
He answers it.

BERNIE
What’s up?

CARRIE (O.C.)
Asshole’s stalling.
Watch the door.
Get ready.

CARRIE
Turns to Meg.

CARRIE
I’ve got a feeling
they’re gonna try something.

Meg nods.
Carrie RINGS the buzzer again.

CARRIE
NURI HADAR.
This is the POLICE.
Open that fucking door RIGHT NOW,
or we’re COMING IN.

INSIDE THE HOUSE
Tal RACES over
to Nuri and Leron.

TAL
Is cops.
They have house surrounded.

LERON
How the FUCK they find us?
What are we gonna do?

NURI
Calm down.
You forget about
Hummer in garage.

LERON
To the HUMMER --
