Jack sneaks through the garage,

 

 

 

jimmies the door to the office. Enters.

 

GRETA

Hello detective.

 

She's hiding in the corner. Holding a VIDEO TAPE.

 

GRETA (CONT'D)

Looking for this?

 

She places it on the table between them.

 

JACK

I'm looking for a lot of things miss. Can't say that's one of 'um.

 

GRETA

Oh, I'm pretty sure you'd want this if you knew what it was. An explicit little blackmail video that used to live in that safe...

 

She points the wall safe.

 

GRETA (CONT'D)

I know my way around triple barrel boltlocks.

 

JACK

I bet you do. So what's the angle?

 

GRETA

Freedom. For me.

 

JACK

And Ava?

 

GRETA

If she's smart about it. She'll be free too.

 

JACK

Give it to me.

 

He approaches, she pulls a gun on him.

 

GRETA

This is my chip to play, not yours. And I'm going take my chances.

 

JACK

Fred will know it was his mistress...

 

She hesitates.

 

JACK (CONT'D)

Let me take it, and he'll know it was his dirty cop. You get what you want, and none of the blame. Just leave the tape, and I'll take care of everything.

She leaves, tape in hand.
