Run For Your Life


Happy Thursday, crime slicksters. It's time once again to take a trip to the dark side, where the girls are hot, the drinks are cold, and the hardboiled-pulp-noir action is non-stop, right here, at the coolest crime joint in cyberspace ... at That Killing Feeling.

In Chapter 40 of THE HEISTERS, Kelsey discovers that sleazy B-girl Doll Montana stole the loot from the stadium robbery, and chases after her ...


EXT. VENICE ALLEY - DRIVEWAY - NIGHT
Doll’s got the trunk open.
Tries to pull out one of the duffle bags,
but has a hard time with it. Too HEAVY.

DOLL
Shit.
(beat)
I can’t run with these --

She unzips it.
Starts stuffing bundles
of cash in her jacket pockets.
Down her jeans. In her purse.

THROUGH THE HEDGES
Kelsey watches.

KELSEY
(to herself)
The MONEY --

PUSHES her way through the hedges.
Comes out the other side.

KELSEY (CONT’D)
BITCH. That’s MY MONEY.

Doll turns. Looks. Sees Kelsey.

DOLL
Fuck YOU, cunt --

She SLAMS the trunk shut.
Starts RUNNING AWAY.
Kelsey TAKES OFF after her.

KELSEY
COME BACK HERE --

FURTHER ON DOWN THE ALLEY
Ronan hears the yelling.

RONAN
SHIT --

And he races toward Doll’s driveway.

INT. UNMARKED POLICE CAR - NIGHT
Isaacs and Nunn sip their coffee.

ISAACS
I think we should tell
her we’re out here.
Might get spooked if
she sees us watching her.

NUNN
Yeah. Good idea. Let’s go.

They get out of the car.
Walk toward the building.

IN THE ALLEY
Doll TAKES OFF
down the alley on foot.

Kelsey sees her.
CHASES AFTER her.

Ronan FLIES through the bushes.
RUNS AFTER both of them.

AT THE CORNER
Doll sees a four-story apartment
building under construction.

It’s covered with a maze of
scaffolding, like catacombs.

She starts climbing up.

KELSEY
Follows right behind.
Starts climbing up after her.

KELSEY
Better watch your back, BITCH,
cause I’m RIGHT BEHIND YOU --
