Shooting Script
A Wing Commander IV shooting script has been digitized from the collection of the University of Texas at Austin. A digital version (extracted below) was posted to Origin's Wing Commander IV website in 1996.
hangar bay - panther, hawk, confed vet -j2ÿÿ CONDITION: IF Blair helped out the panhandling Confed Vet back in the Nephele star port canteen (Scene 13-A1).
the captured pilot sits between panther and hawk; we recognize him as the confed vet from the nephele star port canteen, washed up and hair cut, but still the same guy.
clearly, he's already undergone some interrogation from Hawk. he appears tired and confused. now he looks up at blair's approach.
vet You're with them now, huh?
Blair doesn't recognize him at first.
vet You did me a good turn once. (to Panther & Hawk) This guy I owe.
Now Blair remembers their previous meeting. As the vet continues speaking, Blair heads over to pliers' toolbox, pours out a cup of coffee from a thermos, and hands it to the vet.
vet I was just flyin' for these guys 'cause they paid me, anyway. Ain't like the old days, when ya had a cause...
blair Lotta people are dying out there who don't deserve it. You wanna tell us what you know?
vet Will ya get me home? That's all I ask.
blair You have my word.
vet You're looking for an old cap ship. They re-outfitted it, ya'd hardly know it was ever one of ours.
The vet sips his coffee, gathering his thoughts.
vet It moves around, every sixth hour, I'll plot it for ya on a nav-map. Has to uncloak when it fires up its engines; otherwise, it lays low. It's full of gadgets that do all the jamming. I don't even know why it's here. Frankly, I hope you take the old crone down: it's an evil old thing anyway. There's no honor in just pokin' people in the eye.
blair claps the vet on the shoulder.
blair We got a place for you here, if you want.
vet Naw. I think my flying days are over. Next time it won't be the ejection pod ... it'll be a coffin. I'd like to postpone that for awhile, if you don't mind...
