CUT TO: INTERROGATION ROOM
EXT. INTERROGATION ROOM- AFTERNOON
DR. MIDDLETON IS THROWN AGAINST THE WALL AND THEN FALLS TO THE FLOOR HE IS THEN KICKED IN THE FACE AND THEN PICKED UP AND PUNCHED BACK DOWN TO THE FLOOR.
[Dr. Middleton]
I fail to the see... the point in all this.
HE CHUCKLES AND THEN SPITS ON SILVER PALADIN'S SUIT. SILVER PALADIN THEN THROWS HIM ONTO THE TABLE IN THE ROOM AND PUNCHES HIM THREW IT.
[Silver Paladin]
The last time you sent something here it spiraled into chaos. What I want to know is why you let yourself be caught, what do you have up your sleeve?
[Dr. Middleton]
... Now if I told you that I wouldn't be a good magician would I?
[Silver Paladin]
This isn't a game talk or this continues.
[Dr. Middleton]
You're a believer in God right?
[Silver Paladin]
What does that have to do with anything?
[Dr. Middleton]
Do you think he would approve of this behavior? Beating me because you can't have things your way?
SILVER PALADIN PICKS UP DR. MIDDLETON BY THE COLLAR.
[Silver Paladin]
You've killed hundreds of Christians in you search for what you call the truth as well as countless other religious leaders, figures, and peoples. You're nothing more than a terrorist whose own endeavors have clouded his mind making him unfit to operate around his fellow man. I think God would forgive me if I knocked a couple of teeth out of your head.
[Dr. Middleton]
I don't see anything wrong with what I'm seeking. We as humans not even counting the mad ones kill countless people every day. Who cares if a couple of nut jobs going on about a man in the sky are killed?
[Silver Paladin]
Because we were building roads to peace and you screwed it up. Do you know what happens when the U.S. government can't explain an assassination attempt on the leader of a country it's trying to earn trust with? It makes us look like assholes, who are traitors and not to be trusted.
[Dr. Middleton]
How do you know that it was me?
[Silver Paladin]
You're sloppy, we've had evidence for a long time it's just been the matter of tracking you down.
Now back to the matter at hand. I know you've been dabbling with evolution and making you freakish mutant animals so why didn't you fly off on one?
[Dr. Middleton]
You have something that I want.
[Silver Paladin]
Talk before you have no teeth.
[Dr. Middleton]
The mutants I came back for them. Especially Pb, also some old notes that will throw my work years into the future once I recover them.
[Silver Paladin]
Did you really thing that it would work.
[Dr. Middleton]
