Like Thelma And Louise


Hey there, crime kids. TGIF. 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 the final chapter of BLUE HOTEL, Alona and Holly go mano-a-mano with the cops on the roof of the Starlight Hotel, after which only one person survives ...


EXT. STARLIGHT HOTEL - ROOF - NIGHT
Alona holds Holly in her arms,
as wave after wave of pleasure
washes over her like
ripples in the ocean.

Finally finding release.
Trembling, climaxing over and over,
again and again.

HOLLY
I almost can’t TAKE IT --
It’s SO GOOD.

DANETTE (O.C.)
DON’T MOVE. THIS IS THE POLICE.

DANETTE AND BERNIE
Stand near the ladder, on the roof.
Weapons drawn.

ALONA AND HOLLY
Stare at them. Freaked.
Alona grabs her top. Covers up.

ALONA
Don’t shoot, DON’T SHOOT.

DANETTE
I want both of you to get up
very slowly and put your clothes on.

Alona stands.
Carefully steps into her skirt.

Holly gets up.
Turns her head.
Stares off into space.

DANETTE
Ms. Land, please
put your clothes on.

ALONA
Holly, get dressed.
It’s over.

HOLLY
(to the cops)
She’s not the killer.
I am.
(to Alona)
I’m bad, Alona.
I tried to tell you.

She turns.
Steps up onto the ledge.
Sways in the hot wind.

ALONA
HOLLY.

DANETTE
Ms. Land, please step away
from the ledge.

HOLLY
(to Alona)
I killed a guy at school
who date-raped me --
(beat)
And I liked it.
(beat)
And that -- scared me.
(beat)
Also kinda fucked up my sex life.
(beat)
Until now, with you --
(looks at the cops)
Of course, now that’s over.

She looks down. Shivers.
Alona steps onto the ledge.

BERNIE
Both of you, get down off there.
Nothing’s worth dying for.

ALONA
(takes Holly’s hand)
Holly, please.
Don’t go.
Stay with me.

HOLLY
Where?
In PRISON?

Alona closes her eyes.
Shudders.

Danette holsters her gun.
Starts slowly creeping toward them.
Bernie watches.

HOLLY
Come with me.
We’ll be like Thelma and Louise.
Go out in a blaze of glory.

ALONA
(opens her eyes)
That would be nice --
(off Holly’s smile)
But I wanna LIVE.

And she YANKS Holly
back onto to the roof.

The movement causes Alona
to PLOW into Danette,
knocking them both over.

DANETTE
HEY!

Bernie draws his piece.
Holly JUMPS off the ledge,
GRABS his gun.

SHOOTS him in the head, BANG.
He falls over, THWUMP.

Danette WHIPS OUT her Glock,
but Holly’s too fast,
and SHOOTS her, BANG.

She hits the ground, THWUMP.
Shot in the heart.

Alona gets up slowly.
Exhales.

ALONA
Holy shit.
(wide-eyed)
Nice -- shooting.

An evil pout flickers
across Holly’s lips.

HOLLY
You tried to trick me.
We were gonna be SOULMATES,
and you RUINED IT.

She raises her gun.
Takes aim.

ALONA
No, wait -- Holly, PLEASE.
Don’t shoot.

HOLLY
Check-out time.

She SHOOTS Alona.
BANG. BANG. BANG.

Her body HITS the rooftop
with a dull THUD.
Lights out.

PUSH IN ON Holly’s face.
A tear streams down her cheek.

HOLLY
Told you I was bad --
