ZACK

  Where’m I going here?

  ELI

  The house. Drive to the house. Pal, stop kicking that cage or we’ll dump you right here and you’ll never see him again. Stop, okay, because we’re taking you to him.

  ICE

  You what?

  nick

  He’s seven months old. He can’t survive. Where is he?

  The anger now seems to have left Nick. He’s resigned, weak, pleading.

  ELI

  Just keep the noise down, pal, and in ten minutes you’ll see him. We’ll take you right there. Just lay calm.

  nick

  Where is he? What are you planning to do with him? Please, he’s a baby. He’s not had his bottle. He’ll get hungry soon and start crying. What kind of people are you?

  ICE

  We’re bad guys to mess with, dickhead. So keep your mouth shut and you’ll get your kid back.

  ELI

  Ten minutes, pal. Just lay quiet for ten minutes and you’ll be glad you did.

  Perhaps knowing he has no choice, Nick lays his head down.
