(background music , the Godfather II )
(mid shot)
in the foreground is a man (Don Cameron). he is sitting in a red leather wing back chair; he has his hands cupped together under his chin, his eyes are closed.
in the background is a large wood stained varnished door is seen out of focus, the door comes into focus as a rapid knock is heard.
The man (D.C) appears not hear it.
montage
a hand moves towards a brass door handle
The door opens
this time the chair is seen from the rear. to the right of the chair there is a huge table littered with bags of white powder and machine guns. Tv Screens stuck to the wall are showing violence on the streets.
A large fire burns in the fireplace.
man
Boss [...] ive some bad news from the east London district. Its Don Johnson, he's after a bigger chunk of the syndicate.
Don Cameron
(gets up out of his Chair and looks at the shady figure whose entered the room.)
Does that mean that they are bringing back Miami Vice? Oh I loved the 1980's with all that-
man.
(sighs)
No Not Don Johnson the almost famous actor and 80's hear-throb, i Mean Don Johnson, the boss o' the east side! He's been to see the three wise men an; has their approval! Its a take over!
DC
so Don Johnson! you think you can take me on? You think you have the balls?
DC tries to make a fist but he can't. He looks embarrassed. Well I want him dead! I want his family dead and his friends dead! I want him dead dead dead!
man
I think you are confusing yourself with Sonny, Boss! Your character is supposed to show your moral decline as the reigns of power take control.
DC
Oh your right. (sighs) Just when I thought I was out, They drag me back in! (shakes his head)
who have we got? Smither's Guilders? what about McVities?
Man
-Smither's has taken up sides with Don Johnson, sir. Gulders says he's tied up but I heard they are all bowing the knee to him.
DC
-Smithers that low down piece of shit! that scumbag! He'd turn his mother in if it could make a buck. All of them! Bastards!
(He drinks a large scotch)
What about (long pause) TeB-IT he was a damn good under the T.
Man.
He's retired sir. Or dead. We don't know(short pause) he writes the daily Mail.
DC
damn
Gunshots are heard outside as DC goes to the long table on the table is a huge bag of cocaine. Guns are littered about. He leans forward and buries himself in the cocaine mountain. Above him television screens show violence on the streets. He picks up a large automatic weapon and RPG.
DC
Ok so yo wanna play rough? I'll give them rough!
man
No, you can't do that! That's Joey Montana. Scarface?
DC
so whatta I gotta do? Just tell me! Whatta I gotta do? will you tell me? Please! (short pause) Tell me what to do! what are my lines? Just tell me (looking desperate) FUCKING TELL ME WHAT IT IS I HAVE TO SAY!
Man.

DC
closeup
His face changes to anguish, to anger to reflection to recognition, finally to helplessness.
