Announcer: Ladies and Gentlemen. Taffey Lewis presents Miss Salome and the snake. Watch her take the pleasures from the serpent that once corrupted man.
[ Miss Salome's dressing room. ]
Male voice repeated in background: Oi, Aremiroya! Nanka hen-na mon nokocchattaze. [ Japanese for: "Hey, look! Something strange has been left." ]
Female voice repeated in background: Ha. Darekakara no purezento. [ Japanese for: "Wow. It's a present from someone." ]
Deckard: Excuse me, Ms. Salome, can I talk to you for a minute? I'm from the American Federation of Variety Artists.
Zhora: Oh, yeah?
Deckard: I'm not here to make you join. No ma'am. That's not my department. Actually, uh. I'm from the, uh, Confidential Committee on Moral Abuses.
Zhora: Committee of Moral Abuses?
Deckard: Yes, ma'am. There's been some reports that the management has been taking liberties with the artists in this place.
Zhora: I don't know nothing about it.
Deckard: Have you felt yourself to be exploited in any way?
Zhora: How do you mean, exploited?
Deckard: Well, like to get this job. I mean, did you do, or-- or were you asked to do anything that's lewd or unsavory or otherwise, uh, repulsive to your person, huh?
Zhora: Ha. Are you for real?
Deckard: Oh yeah. I'd like to check your dressing room if I may.
Zhora: For what?
Deckard: For, uh, for holes.
Zhora: Holes?
Deckard: Well you -- you'd be surprised what a guy'd go through to get a glimpse of a beautiful body.
Zhora: No, I wouldn't.
Deckard: Little, uh, dirty holes they, uh, drill in the wall so they can watch a lady undress. [ pause ] Is this a real snake?
Zhora: Of course it's not real. Do you think I'd be working in a place like this if I could afford a real snake? [ pause ] So if somebody does try to exploit me, who do I go to about it?
Deckard: Me.
Zhora: You're a dedicated man. Dry me.
[ Fight and chase ]
Male voice repeated in background: Oi, Aremiroya! Nanka hen-na mon nokocchattaze. [ Japanese for: "Hey, look! Something strange has been left." ]
Female voice repeated in background: Ha. Darekakara no purezento. [ Japanese for: "Wow. It's a present from someone." ]
Hari Krishnas: Hari, Hari. Hari, Hari. Hari, Hari.
Street Sign: Cross now... Don't walk...
Deckard: Move! Get out of the way!
[ Deckard fires. Kills Zhora in slow motion scene. Leon watches Deckard from the street. ]
Deckard (voice-over): The report would be routine retirement of a replicant which didn't make me feel any better about shooting a woman in the back. There it was again. Feeling, in myself. For her, for Rachael.
Deckard: Deckard. B two-sixty-three fifty-four.
Street Sign: Move on...
Saleslady: A minute. Yeah what do you want?
Deckard: Tsing tao. This enough?
Saleslady: Yeah.
Gaff: Bryant.
Bryant: Christ, Deckard, you look almost as bad as that skin job you left on the sidewalk.
Deckard: I'm going home.
Bryant: You could learn from this guy Gaff. He's a god damn one man slaughter house. That's what he is. Four more to go. Come on Gaff, let's go.
Deckard: Three. There's three to go.
Bryant: There's four. That-- That-that skin job that you V-K'ed at the Tyrell Corporation, Rachael. Disappeared. Vanished. Didn't even know she was a replicant. Something to do with a brain implant says Tyrell. Come on Gaff. Drink some for me, huh, pal.
[ Deckard sees Rachael across the street, and chases after her. Leon stops Deckard in the street ]
Deckard: Leon.
Leon: How old am I?
Deckard: [ Punches Leon ] I don't know.
Leon: [ Throws Deckard against wall ] My birthday is April 10, 2017. How long do I live?
Deckard: Four years.
[ Leon throws Deckard against another wall. Deckard pulls out his gun, but Leon immediately knocks it away. ]
Leon: More than you.
[ Leon swings and misses Deckard, but punches a hole in a steam generator. ]
Leon: Painful to live in fear, isn't it?
[ Leon tosses Deckard down on his back. ]
Leon: Nothing is worse than having an itch you can never scratch.
Deckard: Oh, I agree.
[ Leon picks Deckard up by the collar, and slaps him across the face. ]
Leon: Wake up! Time to die.
[ Leon gets ready to gouge out Deckard's eyes... But, Rachael pops some lead into his cranium ]
