FADE IN: | Rapid cuts of Imperial Stormtroopers in and around Mos Eisley flash across the screen. The COPS, theme song "Bad Boys", plays as familiar credit crawl appears on screen. | |
CREDIT CRAWL: | TROOPS IS FILMED ON LOCATION WITH THE MEN OF THE IMPERIAL FORCES. ALL SUSPECTS ARE GUILTY. PERIOD! OTHERWISE THEY WOULDN'T BE SUSPECTS, WOULD THEY? . . . . | |
EXT. TATOOINE DESERT - DAY | A Storm trooper sits astride a DEWBACK. Imperial transports can be seen lifting off in the background as he starts his patrol. | |
SUPER: TATOOINE, DUNE SEA 08:00 IST CAPT. JYANIX BAUCHJYANIX (to camera) |
I joined the empire about six years ago. I can remember as a kid watching the holographic images and being excited about the new direction the galaxy was taking. So when I was old enough I went down to the local recruitment cent and signed up, and I've been here at Tatooine ever since. He gives the Dewback a good kick. The animal quickens its pace. | |
JYANIX (still to camera) |
Most people would call this the ass end of space, but I like the small town feeling you get around here. I mean, we know everybody. EVERYBODY! And I feel I can really make a difference here. | |
EXT. TATOOINE DESERT - DAY | Captain Bauch approaches several JAWAS heading towards a SANDCRAWLER with a DROID. Bauch is joined by to other STORMTOOPERS. | |
JYANIX |
We've got a routine stop here. We have a report of some stolen droids and we think these might be it. The camera follows Bauch as he leaves his mount and joins the other Troopers. | |
JYANIX |
Excuses Me. You wanna come over here, please. The Jawas look surprised. | |
JYANIX |
Yes, I'm talking to you two. The Jawas sheepishly walk over to the troopers. | |
JYANIX |
Whose droid is this? The Jawas answer in their native tongue. | |
JYANIX |
Oh, it's your cousins'. Is this your cousin? Jyanix turns to the other Jawa #2. | |
JYANIX |
Are you his cousin. No. Then who are you? The Jawa #2 says something. | |
JYANIX |
Oh, you're his friend. Well Mr.Friend would you step over there for a moment please. Jyanix turns his attention to the first Jawa. The other Troopers move closer to the second one. | |
JYANIX (holding back laughter) |
Ok, so the droid belongs to your cousin. If I go over to that sandcrwaler over there and ask to see your cousin, is he gonna have a Bill of Sales for this. Jawa #1 answers. | |
JYANIX |
Ok. Well what I'm gonna do now sir, is place you under Imperial arrest. So it can only help your situation if you tell me the truth. Jawa #2 moves in to protest. The other troopers quickly draw their guns on him. | |
JYANIX (to Jawa#2) |
Hey! Am I talking to you? (Pause) AM I TALKING TO YOU?!! Then stay over there and shut your mouth! Now if you move again I'm gonna shoot you. Jawa #1 starts pleading with Capt. Jyanix. | |
JYANIX |
No. Yes, I understand. I've got a wife and kids too, but you don't see me out here stealing imperial droids, do you? (Pause) Sure you'll never do it again. | |
STORMTOOPER #1 (yelling) |
He's making a run for it!! Camera swished around to see Jawa #2 running across the sand. The two other troopers chase after him, then finally raise their guns and shoot him down. The first Jawa, now fearing for his life makes a run in the other direction. The camera follows Jyanix as he shoots the Jawa in the back. | |
EXT. TATOOINE DESERT - DAY | Captain Jyanix faces the camera as the two other Troopers carry away the Jawas. In the background you can see that the sandcrawler that the Jawas were headed to in now on fire. | |
JYANIX |
Well, what we had here was that these Jawas had stolen some Imperial property and it unfortunately turned violent. These Jawas do this kind of stuff all the time-picking up stay droids and selling them to the highest paying customer. Another Trooper chimes in. The camera focuses in on him. | |
TROOPER #1 | We didn't find the droids we were looking for. But, we did find one that a kid had reported stolen. So he and his parents are gonna come down to the detention center and pick it up. | |
JYANIX | Boy, I'll bet they'll be happy. | |
TROOPER #1 | Yup. That's what it's all about. | |
FADE OUT. | ||
