SCENE 4

INT. – MOSCOW, RUSSIA – VAN - NIGHT

Jennifer opens the door of the back of the van and sees John and Tyler. She drops her gun on a small table next to multiple computers.

JENNIFER

Fucking hell.

Jennifer removes her earpiece and puts it next to her gun on the table. She sits on a chair in the back of the van. Tyler begins to drive the van to go to the Russian CIS building while John looks carefully at Jennifer's wounds and lifts up her shirt.

JOHN

There's a two-inch piece of glass in your right rib. You only have an external bleeding. It'll need some stitches. Your face looks okay. The other cuts are small, no major problem.

TYLER

We're arriving at the Russian CIS headquarter in about half an hour. I'd recommend to stitch her up now.

John grabs a first aid kit. He gives Jennifer two pills of painkillers and she swallows them with a bottle of water. John begins to stitch Jennifer's wound.

JOHN

(smirking)

If I wouldn't have been working as an assassin, I would have been a surgeon for sure.

JENNIFER

(scoffing)

I'd be scared to be your patient. I don't even trust you with the thing you're holding in your hands right now.

JOHN

I'm saving your life. Most people just settle on a simple 'thank you', instead of insulting my ability to be a good doctor.

JENNIFER

You? A good doctor? Remember two years ago on Tyler's twenty fourth's birthday when he cut his finger with a beer can and you panicked so badly that you said he had a hemorrhage.

Tyler adjusts the rearview while driving to look at John. He adds a detail to Jennifer's story.

TYLER

And only two drops of blood came out of my thumb.

JOHN

Stop making fun of me, you guys. I was drunk. And I'm a better doctor now. I had the class back at the CIS headquarters months ago, so cut me some slack here.

JENNIFER

You're always drunk when you're not working anyway.

JOHN

Well, you can't blame me. My job is kind of stressful.

JENNIFER

Mine too.

TYLER

We're literally all doing the exact same job, guys. Stop whining about it. You're giving me a headache.

Jennifer winces while John puts stitches on her injury.

JENNIFER

Be more fucking gentle, goddamn it! It literally just felt like you were taking a bone out of my body. Please, John, finish to fix that fucking wound already.

JOHN

I'm almost finished, stop acting like a child.

JENNIFER

Ugh. I can't wait to be back at the headquarters and eat junk food.

TYLER

Speak of the devil, we have to be on a mission in France in a week's time. My God, the food there is delicious.

JENNIFER

I agree. Who's the target, again?

John cuts the string and puts a large white bandage to Jennifer's wound.

JOHN

All right, done!

TYLER

Something about the don of an Italian illegal organization that sells guns and drugs on a business trip. They have all the information at the headquarter.

JENNIFER

(thinking thoroughly)

An Italian organization... Interesting.
