    DIALOGUE CONTINUITY PRINTED IN USA

  • P A T R I O T G A M E S

    RYAN: (ON ANSWERING MACHINE RECORDING) Sorry, we

    can't come to the phone right now. If

    you'll leave a message, we'll get back to

    you as soon as we can. Thanks.

    RYAN: (OVER ANSWERING MACHINE) Hi, Mamie, it's

    Jack. We're ah...gonna leave London as

    planned, but we'll take a cab from the

    airport so nobody has to bother to drive and

    pick us up.

    CATHY: (OVERLAPPING) Ah... Eight. One, two,

    three, four, five, six, seven... You

    already own that. You own everything.

    SALLY: I'll buy another hotel...

    RYAN: (OFF) (INTO TELEPHONE) Listen, we

    completely forgot about Sally's goldfish.

    (ON) If by some miracle they're still

    alive, will you feed them and change the

    water?

    RYAN: Uhm... Mom will make my move, honey.

    RYAN: (INTO TELEPHONE) And if they're not, will

    you go to the store and see if you can find

    a couple that are sort of the same size?

    Okay, we'll see you soon. Bye.

    SALLY: (OFF) One, two, three, four, five...

    RYAN: (OVERLAPPING) What's happening?

    SALLY: (EXCITED) ...six! Aha, yes!

    RYAN: Oh, no. Another hotel?

    CATHY: Now what does he owe you?

  • PATRIOT GAMESPage 2

    SALLY: Now, you owe me a thousand and a hundred

    pounds.

    RYAN: I haven't got it. You win. I'm out.

    CATHY: This girl is rich.

    RYAN: Time to go to sleep.

    WAITER: Good evening, sir.

    RYAN: Yes?

    WAITER: Will...

    WAITER: (FACE OFF) ...these do?

    RYAN: Uhm... Yeah. Bring 'em in. My wife, I

    guess...

    RYAN: (OFF) Ah...candles, champagne. Oh,

    honey... (LAUGHS) (ON) Sorry I didn't

    think of this.

    CATHY: That's all right. Only one of us had to.

    RYAN: She asleep?

    CATHY: Mm-hmm.

    CATHY: What about your speech?

    RYAN: I'll wing it.

    CATHY: You sure?

    RYAN: Mm-hmm.

    RYAN: (VOICE OVER) We have all watched...

    RYAN: (OFF) ...I think with a sense of awe the

    protean events which have taken place in

    Moscow and the republics. And the enormous

    changes...

    RYAN: ...resulting from these events.

    RYAN: In this volatile climate then I must

    conclude that we can only speculate on the

    future of Soviet Fleet development and...

    RYAN: (OFF) ...deployment. I'd like to thank the

    trustees of the Royal Naval Academy for

  • PATRIOT GAMESPage 3

    their very kind invitation to be here with

    you today.

    CATHY: He's impressed, Sally. He just can't show

    it. He's a professional soldier. It's his

    job not to be distracted. Come on, we got

    to go meet Daddy.

    SALLY: I'm impressed.

    CATHY: Find it on the map there?

    SALLY: Uh-huh. We're right here.

    CATHY: Good.

    SALLY: And when we get to the street there we turn

    left. No, right. Yeah, right.

    CATHY: You're sure?

    SALLY: Turn right. Yes.

    CATHY: Okay. We're going to turn right. I'm

    following your map.

    SALLY: Okay. Okay, all right.

    SEAN: You mind your bottom, Paddy-boy. Move sure

    and fast.

    PADDY-BOY: You tol' me that, din't you?

    SEAN: So I'm telling you again.

    SEAN: This won't be like anything you've ever done

    before, little brother.

    WOMAN'S VOICE: (OVER RADIO) Target leaving the Palace now.

    KEVIN: (INTO RADIO) Right. (TO BOYS) Stay awake,

    lads. Here they come.

    SALLY: (OFF) That's it. A little more. A little

    more.

    CATHY: There's Daddy.

    RYAN: Down! Get down!

    RYAN: (YELLING) Get down!

    RYAN: Get down. Keep her down!

  • PATRIOT GAMESPage 4

    SEAN: Get out of the...!

    SEAN: (OFF) ...car! Come on!

    SEAN: (OFF) Get out!

    SEAN: Open the fuckin' door!

    SEAN: Open it, or I'll blow it off!

    KEVIN: Come on, let's go!

    MASKED MAN: Go, go, go!

    SEAN: Paddy?

    GUARDSMAN #1: Stop! Army! Drop it!

    OFFICER: (OFF) Grab his arms!

    SEAN: Paddy-boy...

    GUARDSMAN: (OFF) Naw, he's had it.

    CATHY: It's all right, sweetie. I want you to stay

    here. Everything's going to be okay.

    GUARDSMAN #1: Stand back, ma'am.

    CATHY: That's my husband. I'm a doctor. I'm going

    to treat him.

    CATHY: Oh, Jesus! Jack, what were you thinking of?

    CATHY: I'm going to set you down, okay?

    CATHY: (OFF) Stay with me, Jack. You hear me?

    Stay with me. Jack? Jack, stay with me.

    CNN CORRESPONDENT: (OFF) The feeling here today is one of

    outrage over this (ON) unprecedented

    terrorist attack on the Royal Family. And

    while...

    CNN CORRESPONDENT: ...no group has yet claimed credit, there

    is, among many here, speculation already of

    Irish...

    CNN CORRESPONDENT: (OVER TELEVISION) ...Republican Army

    involvement.

    CNN CORRESPONDENT: (OFF) (OVER TELEVISION) According to eye

    witness accounts, Lord William Holmes, The

  • PATRIOT GAMESPage 5

    Queen Mother's cousin, and Minister of State

    for Northern Ireland, along with his wife

    and son would have most certainly been

    killed were it not for the heroic efforts of

    this man...

    CNN CORRESPONDENT: (OFF) (OVER TELEVISION) ...John Patrick

    Ryan, the American...

    CNN CORRESPONDENT (V.O.): ...tourist who broke up the

    assassination attempt.

    CNN CORRESPONDENT: (OVER TELEVISION) An author and professor

    at the United States Naval Academy in

    Annapolis, Maryland, Ryan is a former Marine

    lieutenant wounded in the exchange of

    gunfire...

    CNN CORRESPONDENT: (OVER TELEVISION) ...he is listed in

    guarded condition at an undisclosed London

    hospital. This is Deborah Weston, CNN News,

    London.

    RYAN: I'm sorry.

    CATHY: It's all right. You're alive. I forgive

    you. Otherwise...

    RYAN: Hi, pumpkin.

    CATHY: I love you.

    RYAN: Ah, I love you, too.

    HIGHLAND: (OFF) You dignify their cowardice with your

    silence. They left you.

    HIGHLAND: They drove off without you. I'm curious as

    to what is it you think you owe 'em.

    OWENS: (OFF) If any of my mates ever drove off and

    left me in your hands...

  • PATRIOT GAMESPage 6

    OWENS: ...I'd not only feel no great sense of

    loyalty, I'd make sure to remind meself to

    kill them.

    HIGHLAND: (OFF) Who are they, Sean?

    HIGHLAND: Where are they? The trip was unscheduled,

    how'd you know Lord Holmes...

    HIGHLAND: (OFF) ...would be there?

    HIGHLAND: I can't help you if you don't talk to me,

    you know.

    OWENS: I'd tear your heart out and serve it up to

    you with chips if I didn't know you'd enjoy

    it, you Fenian bastard.

    KEVIN (V.O.): No, not in all eternity.

    KEVIN: He'll not chirp a word. Not Sean Miller.

    And not while his brother is lying on a

    slab.

    KEVIN: What's the matter, Jimmy? Don't you believe

    it?

    JIMMY: It's the entire thing I don't believe.

    JIMMY: The Royal Family, Kevin? You know that only

    turns people against us.

    JIMMY: Look, this was totally unauthorized...

    JIMMY: ...and the other brigade commanders, they

    know...

    JIMMY: (OFF) ...that you were behind it.

    KEVIN: Fuck the bloody I.R.A.

    KEVIN: (OFF) All these years of war and they've

    got us nowhere.

    KEVIN: In its heart and soul, England is still a

    monarchy. And that is where we must

    strike...at the Royals, and the ruling

  • PATRIOT GAMESPage 7

    class. You're either with us or you're

    against us, Jimmy-boy.

    KEVIN: Make up your mind.

    JIMMY: Oh, I'm with you.

    KEVIN: Good. That's all I wanted to hear.

    KEVIN: I'll leave you to it.

    JIMMY: Kevin, Charlie's gonna drop by tonight...

    JIMMY: ...and try to straighten things out. Be

    smart. Talk to him. And hold your temper.

    KEVIN: I promise. Thanks, Jimmy.

    CHARLIE: Kevin...

    CHARLIE: (OFF) Kevin, lad...

    CHARLIE: ...it's me, Charlie.

    KEVIN: That's me holding my temper, Jimmy-boy.

    JIMMY: (LAUGHS) Oh, God. Oh... All right...

    ANNETTE: Oh damn, I forgot.

    JIMMY: What?

    ANNETTE: Where's my bag?

    JIMMY: Ah, you're not gonna make me wear a rubber,

    are you? You know...

    JIMMY: ...the Church says wearin' one of them's a

    sin, darlin'.

    ANNETTE: So is this, darlin'.

    RYAN: (FACE OFF) So what can you tell me about

    ah...about this guy?

    OWENS: (OFF) Sean? Oh, he's a nice boy, Sean...

    OWENS: ...Miller. Shot a parish priest in Derry.

    OWENS: During confession, if you can imagine.

    OWENS: He thought the father was informing for the

    British.

    HIGHLAND: (OFF) (INTERRUPTING) Excuse me,

    Sergeant...

  • PATRIOT GAMESPage 8

    HIGHLAND: ...I don't think it's in Mister Ryan's best

    interests, or the prosecution's to discuss

    matters not...

    HIGHLAND: (OFF) ...directly related to the events at

    hand.

    HIGHLAND: If you can confirm for me that the man in

    that photograph is the same man you disarmed

    in the square, I think we be through.

    RYAN: I can.

    HIGHLAND: Do you...

    HIGHLAND: (OFF) ...have anything to add, Mister Ryan?

    RYAN: Yes.

    RYAN: (OFF) The man I killed was Miller's...

    OWENS: (OFF) ...brother.

    RYAN: ...brother.

    OWENS: (OFF) Patrick. Not even seventeen, Paddy-

    boy. Recruited...

    OWENS: ...by Sean into the I.R.A. before...

    HIGHLAND: (INTERRUPTING) Again I think we'd all be

    better served if we could preserve the...

    HIGHLAND: (OFF) ...clarity of your eventual

    testimony.

    RYAN: I read it in the newspaper.

    RYAN: (OFF) I can hardly see...

    HIGHLAND: (INTERRUPTING) I'd appreciate you

    refraining from reading the newspapers.

    RYAN: Not even Doonesbury?

    HIGHLAND: (CHUCKLES) Do you have anything to add?

    RYAN: No.

    WATKINS: Mister Ryan?

    RYAN: Yes.

  • PATRIOT GAMESPage 9

    WATKINS: My name's Geoffrey Watkins, Principal

    Private Secretary to Lord Holmes.

    RYAN: It's a pleasure to meet you. Ah, this is my

    wife, Catherine.

    WATKINS: How do you do?

    CATHY: Hello.

    WATKINS: So, Doctor Ryan, how is your patient

    healing?

    CATHY: Just fine. We're looking forward to going

    home, though.

    WATKINS: I can imagine. May I introduce his

    Lordship.

    RYAN: Hello.

    LORD HOLMES: It's my great honor to finally meet you,

    Doctor Ryan.

    RYAN: Thank you.

    LORD HOLMES: I owe you a debt of gratitude that I shall

    never be able to repay.

    RYAN: Not at all. Thank you for your kind note.

    LORD HOLMES: I'm delighted that you're here to share in

    the good news, Mrs. Ryan. Her majesty's

    decided to invest your husband K.C.V.O.

    Knight Commander of the Victorian Order.

    LORD HOLMES: My congratulations, sir, and good luck

    today.

    CATHY: Sir Jack?

    RYAN: Lady Catherine.

    RYAN: (OFF) Perhaps. If I'd had more time to

    think about it, I would have preferred to do

    something else.

    BARRISTER: (OFF) So you're saying you...

    BARRISTER: ...didn't have time. Is that it?

  • PATRIOT GAMESPage 10

    RYAN: That's correct.

    BARRISTER: So you didn't.

    RYAN: Didn't what?

    BARRISTER: Think, sir. You didn't think is the point I

    believe you're trying to make. No, instead

    you...

    BARRISTER: ...raced into a situation of which, by your

    own admission, you had no

    understanding...attacked...

    BARRISTER: (OFF) ...my client, who was in fact another

    pedestrian...

    BARRISTER: (OFF) ...hurrying to help.

    RYAN: Wearing a ski mask...

    BARRISTER: ...shot a second man in the chest, this one

    taking you...can it be...

    RYAN: (INTERRUPTING) After he shot at me.

    BARRISTER: (OFF) ...three shots at point blank range

    in order to fell the second victim.

    RYAN: I used that force I deemed necessary.

    BARRISTER: I should say so. I doubt very much...

    BARRISTER: (OFF) ...whether anyone in the courtroom

    would disagree.

    RYAN: (OFF) Excuse me.

    RYAN: I didn't make this happen, sir.

    BARRISTER: (OFF) No further questions.

    RYAN: (OFF) He did.

    BARRISTER: (OFF) Oh, my Lord, there is one more

    question.

    BARRISTER: Are you still, Doctor Ryan, in the paid

    service of the Central Intelligence...

    BARRISTER: ...Agency? I should remind you that you're

    under oath.

  • PATRIOT GAMESPage 11

    RYAN: No.

    BARRISTER: (OFF) I beg your pardon?

    RYAN: No.

    BARRISTER: That's all. Thank you.

    LORD JUSTICE: (OFF) The witness may stand down. Thank

    you very much.

    RYAN: Thank you.

    LORD JUSTICE: (OFF) Gentlemen...

    LORD JUSTICE: (OFF) ...I think this might be an

    appropriate moment.

    SEAN: Bloody proud of yourself, aren't you? You

    stuck your nose in where it didn't belong...

    SEAN: ...and now you've killed my baby brother.

    SALLY: Hey, Daddy.

    RYAN: Hey, pumpkin.

    SALLY: Hey. Wow, you guys have really grown.

    RYAN: How are you feelin'?

    CATHY: Well, not so good.

    RYAN: Tired?

    CATHY: No.

    RYAN: I have no idea what time it is. Feels like

    morning to me.

    CATHY: Hmm. You're telling me.

    RYAN: Did I miss something?

    CATHY: No. But I did.

    CATHY: I'm pregnant.

    RYAN: Honey...

    SALLY: Can I watch some t.v.?

    SALLY: (OFF) I'm not at all tired.

    SALLY: What?

    CATHY: Plates.

    SALLY: (OFF) I don't have any say in this, do I?

  • PATRIOT GAMESPage 12

    RYAN: Sure you do, honey. This is a family.

    RYAN: (OFF) Everybody's got a say.

    SALLY: Well my say is after the fact.

    SALLY: Or am I wrong?

    RYAN: No. You're right.

    SALLY: Michaela really despises her little sister.

    RYAN: Yeah. Well...

    RYAN: ...ready for this? It could be even worse.

    It could be a baby brother.

    SALLY: Oh, no. Boys.

    O'NEIL: (OVER TELEVISION) I mean, do you refer to

    these...

    O'NEIL: (OVER TELEVISION) ...fighting men as

    terrorists?

    BENNETT: (OVER TELEVISION) No.

    CATHY: Jack...

    O'NEIL: (OVER TELEVISION) You call them...

    RYAN: It's true. Boys are...

    O'NEIL: (OVER TELEVISION) (OVERLAPPING)

    ...patriots.

    SALLY: (OFF) Thank you.

    BENNETT: (OVER TELEVISION) Do you in fact deny that

    the I.R.A. was behind this assassination

    attempt?

    O'NEIL: (OVER TELEVISION) When the I.R.A. carry out

    any form of campaign, they admit to it.

    O'NEIL: (OVER TELEVISION) That's the policy.

    They're proud, you say, they did it?

    O'NEIL: (OVER TELEVISION) Have the I.R.A. admitted

    to this? I mean, common sense, logic...

    O'NEIL: (OVER TELEVISION) ...some form of reason...

    SALLY: (OFF) May I at least suggest some names?

  • PATRIOT GAMESPage 13

    BENNETT: (OVER TELEVISION) Some think your efforts

    in America raising money for the Irish Cross

    will be effected...

    RYAN: Sure you can, honey.

    ANNETTE: Good morning, Mr. Cooley.

    COOLEY: And to you, Madame.

    COOLEY: How's business?

    ANNETTE: Fine, thank you. I came upon this first

    edition in an estate auction. Can your man

    restore it?

    COOLEY: And when would you want this by, Madame?

    ANNETTE: (FACE OFF) Soon.

    ANNETTE: (OFF) As you can see, it's very pressing.

    COOLEY: I'm not sure. The binder may have some

    trouble with this.

    ANNETTE: Is that so?

    COOLEY: I'll see what I can do. He's not a miracle

    worker, you know.

    ANNETTE: No, obviously he's not...

    ANNETTE: (OFF) ...Mr. Cooley.

    ANNETTE: The best you can arrange then.

    ANNETTE: (FACE OFF) Thanks, Cooley.

    COOLEY: Good day, Madame.

    HIGHLAND: Hello, Sean. You don't mind if I come along

    with you, do you?

    HIGHLAND: Although I disapprove of the things you've

    done, Sean, I can't quite bring myself to

    condemn you.

    HIGHLAND: I can't...because I understand where the

    hatred comes from.

    HIGHLAND: (OFF) I more than understand it.

  • PATRIOT GAMESPage 14

    HIGHLAND: But the present fact is that we're very near

    now the darkest hole in all of Great

    Britain. And you still won't speak to me.

    MAN'S VOICE: (OVER RADIO) They're raising the bridge.

    We'll be here about five minutes.

    CONSTABLE #1: (INTO RADIO) Understood.

    CONSTABLE #1: (INTO RADIO) Mobile Three, Lymington...

    CONSTABLE: (OFF) (INTO RADIO) Hello Lymington.

    KEVIN: Open the door.

    KEVIN: Open it, or I'll kill him.

    CONSTABLE #1: They've got the bridge-keeper.

    CONSTABLE #2: What do we do?

    HIGHLAND: We open the door.

    KEVIN: Open it.

    CONSTABLE #2: But for Chrissakes...

    HIGHLAND: But what? Wait until they kill him, then...

    HIGHLAND: (OFF) ...open the door?

    KEVIN: Your guns.

    HIGHLAND: We are unarmed.

    CONSTABLE #2: (OFF) Just who the hell are you?

    KEVIN: Get them out.

    GUNMAN: Get your head down!

    GUNMAN: Get down on the bloody ground! Don't you

    fuckin' move!

    KEVIN: Didn't think we'd forget about you, did you?

    SEAN: Unlock the cuffs.

    SEAN: Inspector Robert Highland...

    SEAN: (OFF) ...this is a friend of mine.

    KEVIN: (OFF) We meet at last, Mr. Highland.

    KEVIN: Tell me, what do they pay you to turn

    against your own people?

    KEVIN: (OFF) Eh?

  • PATRIOT GAMESPage 15

    HIGHLAND: Get on with it and be on your way.

    KEVIN: (OFF) Very well.

    KEVIN: If that's the way you feel about it...

    RYAN: (OFF) C'mon, Cath.

    RYAN: Do I got the tickets, or what?

    CATHY: I don't have them.

    SALLY: I don't have them.

    CATHY: They're on the fridge.

    SALLY: (OFF) Dad...

    RYAN: Honey, there's plenty of time.

    RYAN: Hello, Admiral.

    ADMIRAL GREER: Morning, Jack. You know...

    ADMIRAL GREER: (OFF) ...Marty Cantor.

    JACK: (OFF) Marty.

    CANTOR: (OFF) Jack. How's the shoulder?

    RYAN: Not too bad.

    ADMIRAL GREER: Something's come up. Can we sit down and

    have a chat?

    CANTOR: (OFF) They were moving him to Albany Prison

    on the Isle of Wight when it happened.

    CANTOR: We think he's left the country.

    ADMIRAL GREER: (OFF) Marty, excuse me, let's deal in what

    we know...

    ADMIRAL GREER: ...and not what we don't. We know he's

    escaped. We know it happened in Kent, near

    the Channel.

    ADMIRAL GREER: If he's left the country... Jack, you

    listening?

    ADMIRAL GREER: (OFF) The chances he'd come here, that he'd

    try...

    ADMIRAL GREER: ...that he could come here...are so remote,

    I have trouble even saying it.

  • PATRIOT GAMESPage 16

    RYAN: And yet your first instinct was to come all

    the way out here and tell me.

    ADMIRAL GREER: Marty...

    ADMIRAL GREER: (OFF) ...you want to excuse us a few

    minutes?

    RYAN: I've got a few more weeks before school

    starts, but I've gotta dig in and prepare...

    RYAN: (OFF) ...a few lectures.

    ADMIRAL GREER: You want to come down, look over what we

    got?

    ADMIRAL GREER: (OFF) You might turn up something we

    haven't.

    RYAN: You're asking me if I want to come back.

    ADMIRAL GREER: Yep.

    RYAN: We'll try and go next week, honey.

    SALLY: All right.

    RYAN: Sorry. Sean Miller escaped.

    CATHY: Well, what does that mean?

    RYAN: They just wanted me to know. They thought I

    might be concerned. I'm not. The I.R.A.'s

    not stupid. They're not going to follow me

    all the way over here.

    RYAN: We talked about it, they agree. They're

    gone. That's it.

    CATHY: They didn't ask you to come back to C.I.A.?

    RYAN: I said no.

    CATHY: Just like that.

    RYAN: I don't want to go back, honey.

    CATHY: I saw them coming and I just...

    RYAN: I know.

    CATHY: I can't go back to that life again. You

    know?

  • PATRIOT GAMESPage 17

    ANNETTE: (OFF) Sally, wait up, honey.

    KEVIN: (OFF) I bet your cell was even better than

    this. Bloody Ritz in comparison.

    CLARKE: Least you had your own toilet bowl, eh,

    Sean?

    KEVIN: Come on, Sean, cheer up, you just been

    spared a lifetime of hell on earth. A word

    of gratitude might even be in order.

    SEAN: I don't feel like restin'.

    SEAN: Laying around in the sun like some

    complacent tourist.

    KEVIN: If we're to build an army, we've got to

    train like soldiers. We can't do that in

    Ireland. Not now.

    SEAN: Bleedin' waste of time.

    KEVIN: There's laying about, and there's laying

    low.

    KEVIN: (OFF) There's a difference.

    SEAN: Is there?

    ANNETTE: (OFF) It's Lord Holmes who should be

    worried about...

    ANNETTE: ...complacency. Next time he won't be so

    lucky. Post him back to Whitehall in little

    pieces if that's what it...

    ANNETTE: (OFF) ...takes to free every Irish

    political prisoner.

    SEAN: That's not who I'm thinkin' of.

    KEVIN: (OFF) I know that...

    KEVIN: ...Sean. But what Ryan done can't be

    undone. So you should stop thinking about

    it.

    SEAN: I can't.

  • PATRIOT GAMESPage 18

    LORD HOLMES: How in the world could something like this

    have happened?

    OWENS: Inspector Highland picked the day. Picked

    the decoy routes. Picked the men. And

    still they knew.

    WATKINS: He had two children, apparently.

    LORD HOLMES: Tragic. Tragic.

    WATKINS: S.O.-Thirteen has narrowed it down to

    thirty-one people who had...

    WATKINS: (OFF) ...prior knowledge of your itinerary

    on the day of the attack, and of Miller's

    transfer.

    WATKINS: Five of whom are now dead.

    OWENS: Sir, I think it might be best if we limit...

    OWENS: (OFF) ...your appointments for the time

    being.

    LORD HOLMES: I will not have my itinerary dictated to

    me...

    LORD HOLMES: (OFF) ...by terrorists.

    OWENS: Whoever this traitor is, they better pray to

    God I never find him.

    WATKINS: We know you'll do your best, Sergeant.

    LEADER: And we don't know if we're ever coming home.

    CADETS: (CHANTING) And we don't know if we're ever

    coming home.

    LEADER: Stand up, buckle up, shuffle to the door...

    CADETS: Stand up, buckle up, shuffle to the door...

    LEADER: And jump right out and shout Marine Corps!

    RYAN: Egesta appealed to Athens on what basis? On

    what grounds?

    RYAN: Mister Viederman? Bad time for you?

  • PATRIOT GAMESPage 19

    VIEDERMAN: Well, uhm...they said they'd be

    grateful...didn't they?

    RYAN: (OFF) Uh-huh. Yeah.

    MIDSHIPMAN #1: (OFF) Uhm...

    RYAN: Mm-hm.

    MIDSHIPMAN #1: Fight our battle and the rest of the world

    will fear and respect you.

    RYAN: Yeah, but didn't the rest of the world fear

    and respect Athens already?

    MIDSHIPMAN #2: Didn't matter.

    RYAN: Didn't matter? Why not?

    MIDSHIPMAN #3: Pride, sir?

    MIDSHIPMAN #4: That's the battle they lost. The real

    battle.

    MIDSHIPMAN #5: Attention on deck.

    ROBBY: (OFF) Attention to orders.

    ROBBY: I have a presentation to make.

    ROBBY: For service above and beyond the call of

    duty...

    ROBBY: ...of a tourist, even a Marine, we

    recognize...

    ROBBY: ...Professor John Patrick Ryan with the

    Order of the Purple Target. And hope...

    ROBBY: (FACE OFF) ...that he will duck next time,

    lest he...

    ROBBY: ...become part of history, rather than a

    teacher of it.

    CATHY: How old is he?

    NURSE: (OFF) Ten.

    CATHY: Plate glass window?

    NURSE: (OFF) Mm-hmm.

    NURSE #2: Good morning, Cathy.

    CATHY: Hmm. I've got a retina at one o'clock. We

    might have to bump it. This could take some

    time.

    CATHY: Yeah, let's bump it.

    NURSE #2: (OFF) We're all set to go.

    CATHY: Okay. Let's do it.

    ROBBY: So, you just waded on in like John Wayne.

    ROBBY: Why'd you do it? What were you thinking,

    man?

    RYAN: I don't know. I wasn't thinking.

    ROBBY: That's it?

    ROBBY: You sound like some of my students.

    RYAN: Just pissed me off.

    RYAN: (OFF) I couldn't just stand there and watch

    them shoot those people right in front of

    me.

    RYAN: It was...rage. Pure rage. It just made me

    mad.

    ROBBY: Well, here's hoping you never get mad at me,

    man.

    GIRLS: (OFF) Okay now, it's my turn.

    DRIVER: (OFF) She's late, Sean.

    SALLY: And then she was at her...this dance, and

    then this guy, at the end, he...

    DRIVER: Kinda cute, isn't she?

    SEAN: Is she?

    MARINE GUARD: Doctor Ryan...

    RYAN: Come on! Come on!

    DOCTOR'S VOICE: (OVER CAR PHONE) Surgery.

    CATHY: (INTO CAR PHONE) Yes, this is Doctor Ryan.

    Ah... I'd like the results on the Thompson

    CATHY: (INTO CAR PHONE) Yes, I'm still holding.

    Look, I'd like to speak with Doctor Sutton.

    RYAN: (INTO CAR PHONE) Operator, I want to make

    an emergency breakthrough.

    RYAN: (INTO CAR PHONE) The number is five-five-

    five, three-four-six-four. Yeah, it's a

  • PATRIOT GAMESPage 22

    mobile phone, yeah. What do you mean, I

    can't?

    SEAN: Go faster, dammit!

    the results of that retinal scan.

    Everything is fine.

    CATHY: (INTO CAR PHONE) Yeah.

    SALLY: (INTO CAR PHONE) Hi, Dad.

    RYAN: (OVER CAR PHONE) Is everything all right?

    CATHY: (INTO CAR PHONE) Yeah. Everything's fine.

    SEAN: There she is.

    off the highway and get to the nearest

    CATHY: (INTO CAR PHONE) The police station?

    RYAN: (OVER CAR PHONE) Cathy, just get off the

    highway, right now.

    SEAN: Steady, mate. Steady.

    RYAN: (OVER CAR PHONE) Where are you now?

    CATHY: (INTO CAR PHONE) I'm at Rowe Boulevard.

    barracks on Houston Street.

    RYAN: (INTO CAR PHONE) I'll meet you there.

    CATHY: (OVER CAR PHONE) Okay.

    CATHY: No, everything's fine. It's okay.

    SEAN: They're gone!

    ATTENDANT: (OFF) I got it. Go ahead.

    DR. SHAPIRO: Mr. Ryan?

    RYAN: Yeah.

    DR. SHAPIRO: Your wife's okay. She sustained a

    concussion, but we ran a complete skull

    protocol...

    RYAN: (INTERRUPTING) She's pregnant.

    DR. SHAPIRO: Yeah, I know.

    DR. SHAPIRO: The baby's okay. You don't have to worry

    about...

    RYAN: What about my daughter?

    DR. SHAPIRO: Let's, ah... Let's sit down...

    DR. SHAPIRO: ...for a moment.

    RYAN: No. Talk to me.

    DR. SHAPIRO: It's going to be a little while before we

    know, maybe in the morning.

    DR. SHAPIRO (V.O.): She, ah...

    CATHY: Where's Sally?

    RYAN: She's in the recovery room, honey.

    RYAN: They're watching her. They'll know in seven

    or eight hours.

    RYAN: (SOBBING) They had to remove her spleen.

    RYAN: She's in pretty bad shape.

    CATHY: (CRYING) I'm sorry.

    Mr. Paddy O'Neil. Mr. O'Neil is the Sinn

    Fein...

    ROBBY: (OFF) Jack, here you go.

    ROBBY: You okay?

    RYAN: (UNDER HIS BREATH) I'm fine.

    REPORTER: (OVER TELEVISION) And now we go to Carrie

    Johnson, ready to speak to Mr. Paddy O'Neil.

    O'NEIL: (OFF) I've come to stand vigil and to pray

    for the recovery of the...

    O'NEIL: (OFF) ...victims of this senseless attack.

    (OVER T.V.) Sinn Fein are outraged, as

    indeed are most Irish-Catholics this morning

    of this heinous crime.

    O'NEIL: (OVER T.V.) Look, I want to share with

    Doctor Ryan personally...

    O'NEIL: (OVER T.V.) ...our empathy and anguish, but

    I will wait, as I feel proper...

    O'NEIL: ...for the most appropriate time.

    REPORTER: Yeah, but can you confirm or deny that

    funding for the I...

    REPORTER: (OVER TELEVISION) ...R.A....

    O'NEIL: (OVER TELEVISION) The I.R.A. are not

    responsible for this attack.

    REPORTER: (OVER TELEVISION) What you're saying is,

    the I.R.A. had nothing to do with this

    incident?

    O'NEIL: (OVER TELEVISION) We'll have no more

    questions.

    REPORTER: (OVER TELEVISION) Thank you, Mr. O'Neil.

    DR. SHAPIRO: She's gonna be okay.

    deep...

    O'NEIL: Mr. Ryan...

    CANTOR: You know the deal, Jack, come on...you're

    involved...that's not good process.

    RYAN: (OVERLAPPING) Marty, don't tell me about

    the deal.

    CANTOR: You are the victim of a crime, and that does

    not make for the best analysis, even if you

    knew something about terrorism, which you do

    not. I have guys on it. Guys who know

    something about the I.R.A.

    RYAN: (INTERRUPTING) Marty, I am not standing

    here...

    CANTOR: This is not naval intelligence. You know

    better.

    RYAN: (INTERRUPTING) Marty! I am not standing

    here with my hat in my hand. I am telling

    you I want back in.

    ADMIRAL GREER: Jack...

    RYAN: Sir.

    ADMIRAL GREER: (OFF) You manage any sleep?

    RYAN: Not much, sir.

    explaining to Jack about how we'd be better

    off...

    Well, it's good to see you again,

    please?

    standing at his side. Are you with me,

    anonymous tip about ah...some bomb-like

    stuff on...on a table in an apartment.

    they look around and see there's no way

    anybody could have seen through the window

    like the tipster said.

    hit by somebody else.

    cheap hotel room...

    you have?

    RYAN: Listen, who are we looking for here, huh?

    The I.R.A. terrorists, or some ultra-violent

    faction within the I.R.A., fighting the

    cause their way? Yeah, yeah. Jimmy

    O'Reardon checked into a hotel with a woman

    with long hair. Long red hair! This is who

    we should be looking for. We find her,

    we'll find him.

    SEAN: I saw his wife and daughter die. But she

    and Neddie blew it. Ryan's still alive.

    KEVIN: They're not dead, Sean.

    SEAN: What?

    KEVIN: They survived it. I can't say it any

    plainer than that.

    KEVIN: It doesn't matter. The trip served its

    purpose.

    SEAN: It does matter.

    a little girl falls down a pipe in her

    backyard. But you've shot at one with a

    submachine gun on her way back from school.

    KEVIN: Now we've started a bleedin' war.

    I.R.A., and their American money are denying

    the hits so loud, it only makes them look

    more guilty.

    you?

    You should look after your family better,

    O'NEIL: Barman, two whiskeys.

    RYAN: The I.R.A.'s not responsible for all this, I

    know that.

    O'NEIL: Are you waiting for me to agree with you?

    I've been saying this to the press until I'm

    blue in the face.

    RYAN: That's the point, isn't it? You claim

    responsibility for one thing, deny it for

    another.

    RYAN: Nobody believes you anymore.

    RYAN: I want to know where Sean Miller and Kevin

    O'Donnell are.

    O'NEIL: Let me try and understand this. You want me

    to sell out my fellow Irishman to you? Is

    that why you've come down here?

    O'NEIL: You don't understand me at all.

    RYAN: Oh, I think I do.

    O'NEIL: Look, I don't give a damn what they've done,

    but the day that I sell out my countrymen

    will be the day I put a bullet through my

    own head.

    RYAN: That's it, then, huh?

    maybe I won't have a drink with you.

    not, and neither will anyone else, but I

    will put such a strangle-hold on your gun

    rocks. I will fucking destroy you.

    the Lord Holmes incident...

    Now when Sean Miller escaped, he was last

    seen in a Zodiac heading out in the Channel

    in a gale, which didn't make much sense,

    until I checked on the freighters that were

    out there that day.

    from the Middle East to client...

    North Africa.

    Directe, West German Red Army Faction...but

    on the day that this particular ship docked

    in Bengazzi, there was activity in only nine

    camps with people arriving. Now, this one

    RYAN: (FACE OFF) ...is P.L.O. This one's Shining

    Path. These seven we're not so sure about.

    RYAN: Why?

    FERRO: Ah, well, because we got satellites...

    RYAN: (INTERRUPTING) Because the people in those

    camps know, probably better than we do,

    exactly what time the satellite's gonna pass

    overhead.

    RYAN: (OFF) Hmmm. No, that's nothing.

    RYAN: Go back to the ah...bigger picture. Let me

    see down there.

    RYAN: (OFF) What's that?

    RYAN: Tighten up on that, will you?

    RYAN: Hmm. Can you enhance that? Sharpen it up?

    RYAN: Tits.

    ADMIRAL GREER: S.A.S. could take out any one of these camps

    in under two minutes.

    ADMIRAL GREER: Kill everybody there, and be gone before the

    echo fades. Are you sure...

    ADMIRAL GREER: ...this is the same woman?

    ADMIRAL GREER: Keep at it, huh?

    RYAN: Son of a bitch.

    RYAN: Hi.

    SALLY: Read it again, Daddy.

    RYAN: (READING) "The sun did not shine, it was

    too wet to play, so we sat in the house on a

    cold, cold wet day."

    RYAN: "I sat there with Sally, we sat there, we

    two. And I said 'How I wish we had

    something to do.'"

    RYAN: (OFF) "Too wet to go out, too cold to play

    ball, so we sat in the house, we did nothing

    at all."

    RYAN (V.O.): "So all we could do was just sit, sit, sit,

    sit. And we did not like it, not one little

    bit."

    RYAN (V.O.): "And then something went..."

    RYAN (V.O.): "...boom."

    RYAN: (FACE OFF) Paddy O'Neil can sleep at night.

    In fact, he probably enjoys...

    RYAN: ...the irony. She's not Irish. She's

    English.

    CANTOR: (FACE OFF) And this is the girl...

    CANTOR: ...you saw? In the blink of an eye in a

    Jeep as it passed you doing forty?

    RYAN: Yeah.

    CANTOR: What am I supposed to do here?

    RYAN: Tell S.O.-Thirteen you know who she is.

    Tell them her name, give them her picture,

    tell them she poses as a rare book dealer

    and ask them to look for her. What do you

    mean what do you do?

    CANTOR: What am I supposed to do with you, Jack?

    You walk into a bar, half of whose customers

    want you dead, you walk up to the I.R.A.'s

    bagman and in front of his guys, you

    threaten him? You're not a field man, Jack,

    you never were. You're an analyst, analyze

    that.

    RYAN: I am not after your job, Marty. I'm after

    the man who tried to kill my family.

    CANTOR: Then, will you think? You tell O'Neil that

    you're looking for a girl, he gives you the

    pictures of a girl. He obliges you, to get

    you off his back, and you...

    CANTOR: (OFF) ...believe him?

    RYAN: I didn't tell him I was looking for a girl,

    Marty.

    ASHLEY: Sarge...

    OWENS: Hmm?

    ASHLEY: Come and look at this.

    ELECTRICIAN: (FACE OFF) A bit of a book worm myself...

    ELECTRICIAN: ...not that you'd know it to look at me.

    What's your passion, mate? Mysteries? Spy

    novels? Familiar with Ian Fleming, are you?

    COOLEY: This is a rare book shop.

    ELECTRICIAN: Rare books... Yes, so they are.

    COOLEY: Can you locate the problem, or do I have to

    call someone else?

    ELECTRICIAN: Already have. The wiring in this whole

    place dates from before the war. The first

    war. It's what we call in the electrical

    business "rare".

    COOLEY: Yes. Can you fix it?

    ELECTRICIAN: Sure, I can fix it. Can you afford it?

    ELECTRICIAN: (FACE OFF) That's the question.

    COOLEY: Just fix it.

    ELECTRICIAN: Hello...

    OWENS: He's seen it, has he?

    ASHLEY: I don't know.

    OWENS: (OFF) He's got it off.

    ELECTRICIAN: Hey, what do you make of this?

    COOLEY: I, ah...

    COOLEY: (OFF) I, ah... I have no idea.

    OWENS: Damn!

    COOLEY: I have to go out now for a few minutes, to

    deliver some books.

    COOLEY: Please, keep about your repairs.

    ELECTRICIAN: (OFF) I'll be here all week, gov, don't

    worry.

    1ST AIDE: (OFF) Dinner at the White House is no

    problem...

    LORD HOLMES: What is the problem?

    1ST AIDE: No problem. We're just, ah...running out of

    dates. Yes, we could do that. Move that to

    there, which would leave us...the

    Fourteenth? The Fourteenth.

    LORD HOLMES: Geoffrey...

    LORD HOLMES: (OFF) ...let's check with John Ryan about

    scheduling a presentation dinner...

    WATKINS: (OVER TELEPHONE) No, this is two-six-one-

    nine.

    COOLEY: (INTO TELEPHONE) I'm terribly sorry.

    RYAN: What are you doing up? Go back to bed.

    CATHY: I wanted to be there when she wakes up.

    I'll go with you, then I'll take a cab back.

    RYAN: (OFF) Okay.

    CATHY: (INTO TELEPHONE) Hello?

    WATKINS: (OVER TELEPHONE) Sir John Ryan, please.

    CATHY: It's for you. Sir John.

    RYAN: (INTO TELEPHONE) Hello?

    WATKINS: (FACE OFF) Excuse me, sir. Mr. Ryan has a

    special celebration that evening...

    WATKINS: ...that he can't change, and he wondered if

    you might care to join him.

    LORD HOLMES: Where? At his house?

    WATKINS: Yes, sir.

    LORD HOLMES: Why not?

    ANNETTE: (OFF) We shot this eight days ago in

    Berlin.

    KEVIN: (OFF) Mm-hm.

    ANNETTE: (FACE OFF) One, two, three, four (ON) Brits

    traveling with him. Light arms.

    KEVIN: The heavy stuff's in the cars.

    ANNETTE: He's German... He's German.

    KEVIN: This boring you, Sean?

    RYAN: Take a look at the one with the hat.

    TECHIE: His arms look a little pink.

    RYAN: Sunburn. New arrival.

    RYAN: What do you think? Same guy?

  • PATRIOT GAMESPage 39

    RYAN: (OFF) That rare book dealer, Dennis

    Cooley...

    RYAN: (OFF) ...he's bald.

    RYAN: (OFF) Now, it's possible...

    RYAN: ...that there could be a woman at some of

    these camps, but with her and Cooley in the

    same place...

    RYAN: ...if that is Cooley, the odds of

    coincidence are dropping fast.

    RYAN: Still, I... I don't know. There's no way I

    can be...

    RYAN: ...absolutely certain...

    ADMIRAL GREER: (OFF) Excuse me, Jack?

    ADMIRAL GREER: Tell me one thing in life that is absolutely

    for certain.

    RYAN: My daughter's love.

    ADMIRAL GREER: What I need to hear from you is your best

    guess, and I think I've heard it.

    ADMIRAL GREER: Haven't I?

    COOLEY: The bastards took away my book shop. They

    took away my books!

    KEVIN: I'm sorry, Dennis, you can't come. You

    haven't got the training and this mission is

    going to be messy.

    COOLEY: I can fire a gun.

    KEVIN: Sorry, Dennis.

    RYAN: Where are you taking me, Marty?

    DSS MAN: (INTO RADIO) Roger that.

    CATHY: You're sure your men outside wouldn't like

    some coffee?

    fine.
