TURPIN.
Maggie we are getting our b.u.t.ts handed to us!
SAWYER.
(In radio) ALL UNITS! EXERCISE DEADLY PHYSICAL FORCE AT YOUR OWN DISCRETION! I REPEAT:.
TAKE THIS PUNK DOWN!.
WEAPONS ERUPT from all directions. METALLO picks up a rifle and starts shooting TROOPERS. When his clip is empty, he starts tossing MEN with reckless abandon.
Rooftop SNIPERS, frustrated, toss their guns to the side and open their ROCKET LAUNCHERS. ROCKETS whistle through the air exploding near METALLO knocking him off balance. When he falls, the TROOPERS are given hope and suddenly what seems like dozens of rockets are exploding around him.
A rocket zooms directly at the back of his head and he turns and CATCHES IT. The end is hot and there's a long exhaust trail. He holds it over his head and screams. The exhaust flame stops. METALLO hurls the rocket back to the rooftop it came from and it explodes at the top of the building front causing it to break off. Huge chunks of concrete. TROOPERS at the building edge fall several stories to their deaths.
LOIS and JIMMY are hiding and taking pictures when JIMMY is. .h.i.t with a stray bullet. He hits a wall and is knocked unconscious.
LOIS.
JIMMY!.
Frantically, LOIS tries to wake him but can't.
She calls out on her cell phone.
CUT TO:.
INT. DAILY PLANET.
PERRY WHITE is huddled around a television watching the destruction. A phone rings and RON TROUPE answers it. RON h.e.l.lo?
(To PERRY) Perry, you have a call.
PERRY.
What! Ron, I got the biggest story of the year here. Tell my wife I'll call her back.
RON.
It's not your wife.
CUT TO:.
EXT. SUICIDE SLUM - DAY.
SAWYER gets a transmission on her radio. SAWYER Sawyer.
(Beat) What? You gotta be kiddin' me!
(To TURPIN) Dan, we got a problem. There are civilians trapped in the area.
TURPIN.
These ten blocks were supposed to be evacuated. Who the h.e.l.l's here?
SAWYER.
Lois Lane and some kid from The Planet.
TURPIN.
Oh, for Pete's sake.
TROOPER.
She ain't even worth saving. She figured a way in here, she can figure a way out.
SAWYER.
We have to get her.
TROOPER #1.
Captain, that thing out there has already killed a half-dozen men and you want us to risk our lives for a reporter who can't follow directions?
SAWYER.
(Into radio) If there are any snipers available, we have civilians in the area and need a visual.
(To TROOPER #1) She's coming out with us.
TROOPER #1.
I'm not going in there.
SAWYER.
What?
SNIPER (VO).
(On radio) There is a woman and a boy about three hundred yards in from the East Side.
The boy is unconscious.
TURPIN.
No problem. I'll go.
TURPIN gets his gear.
TURPIN.
(To TROOPER) It's my job.
SAWYER.
(On radio) Rescue underway. I need as much distraction as possible.
TROOPERS pop up and start firing at METALLO as TURPIN runs into the block.
Distracted, TURPIN finds LOIS and JIMMY.
TURPIN.
Lois Lane?
LOIS.
No, I'm some other idiot caught in a warzone.
TURPIN.
n.o.body likes a smart a.s.s.
TURPIN tosses JIMMY across his shoulder.
TURPIN.
Hold this.
He gives LOIS his rifle and takes his handgun out.
TURPIN.
It's like a camera. Just point and click.
LOIS.
Nine millimeter German Glock with a modified grip.
TURPIN gives her a surprised look.
LOIS.
I was an Army brat. I think I'll be okay.
LOIS takes the handgun and gives him his rifle back.
TURPIN.
Okay then, let's go.
They charge out into the open running for the barricade. TURPIN's in the lead when METALLO turns. LOIS stops and starts firing.
TURPIN makes it to safety. METALLO closes in on LOIS and lifts her into the air and disarms her.
METALLO.
I know you. You're that reporter from The Daily Planet.
LOIS.
And here I didn't think you could read.
METALLO.
Oh, you're funny, too.
He lowers her so they're face to face. Her feet are still dangling over a foot off the ground.
METALLO.
How about we dance?
LOIS spits in his face.
LOIS.
My dance card's full.
METALLO.
That's gonna cost you.
There is a tapping on METALLO's shoulder.
SUPERMAN (OS).
Excuse me.
Surprised, he turns.
Behind him is SUPERMAN.
SUPERMAN.
If the lady says she doesn't want to dance, then she doesn't want to dance.
