02 – Finger Stumps

Script:

Panel 1: Queen peeks around the corner, the light behind him casting long shadows.

BRIGHTON (off-panel): Maybe if you didn’t…you know, start drinking at eight every morning…Your blood would take less time to shoot out of your finger stumps….

Panel 2: Queen steps out to meet a stout shadowy figure in a fedora.

QUEEN (in German): I forget, but I’m pretty sure it was some cliche about birds.

Panel 3: The shadowy figure from the front, silent.

FIGURE: …

Panel 4: Queen gets suspicious.

QUEEN: Are you my contact?

Panel 5: Shadowy figure shouts, with little effort –

FIGURE (in German): SWITCH ON THE LIGHTS!

Panel 6: Large tracks of lights flood the area yellow. Behind the shadowy figure, we can now see a gang of thugs, all wearing black turtleneck sweaters.

QUEEN: I’ll take that as a negative then.
