Seems Like Old Times

Hey there, crime kids. Happy Hump Day. 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 17 of THE HEISTERS, we flash back to the start of the heist, when Kelsey, Ronan, Chick and Ludo sneak into the stadium the night before the rock concert ...


EXT. STADIUM GATE - NIGHT - FLASHBACK
Ludo carries a fold-up chair
and a newspaper.

Sets the chair down
next to the gate.
Puts the paper on it.

He turns toward Chick.
Interlocks his fingers together.
Holds them down below his knees.

Chick steps onto Ludo’s hands
and GRABS the bars.

Ludo then HOISTS Chick up.
He GRABS the top.

Ludo GRABS Chick’s feet
and PUSHES him up higher.

Chick squeezes through
the opening at the top of the gate
and drops down on the other side
with a soft THUD.

Ludo pulls down his scarf.
Sits. Starts reading the paper.

IN THE MERCEDES
Ronan turns. Looks at Kelsey.
Staring out the windshield.

RONAN
Been awhile since we worked together.

KELSEY
(eyes straight ahead)
Seems like old times --

RONAN
(stares at her, fidgets)
You never get nervous, do you.
(off her silence)
I get a bit -- on edge.
Then when the job
gets going, I calm down.
Kinda go onto auto-pilot.

KELSEY
(sees something)
Don’t look now, but we’re
coming in for a landing.

LUDO
Gets up from his chair.
Stretches and yawns.

KELSEY AND RONAN
Get out of the car.
Go the trunk. Open it.

Ronan takes out two
large duffle bags.

Kelsey grabs a large suitcase.
They carry them over to Ludo.

LUDO
(takes Kelsey’s bag)
Gate’s open.

KELSEY
Then let’s go make
a charitable withdrawal --
