SHOT OF DAVID RESTORING AN OLD PAINTING.\n\nDavid cap: i was seven when i saw my father restoring a painting, it was a commissioned work from the new your museum of modern art. It was a 465 oil painting, a portrait.\n\n2:\nSAME FRAMING AND LAYOUT AS PANEL 1, BUT NOW DAVID STABS A GOON WITH A SCALPEL.\n\nDavid cap: he taught me my first lesson that day.\n\nDavid cap: ART RESTORATION IS LIKE LIFE. Even the most damaged and dirty painting can be saved, the marks of time will remain, but also the beauty of those years, the patina of time. That's eternal.\n\n3:\nOPEN SHOT. WE CAN SEE DAVID WORKING ON THE SAME OLD PAINTING, HE WEARS WHITE SHIRT, WHITE PANTS AND WHITE SHOES, WHITE GLOVES AND SAFETY GOGGLES.\n\nDavid cap: at twelve, i did my first professional work as art restorator. It was a fresco from 1778. my father was there, behind me, watching me.\n\n4:\nSAME FRAMING AND LAYOUT AS PANEL 3. BUT NOW DAVID IS AIMING A PRECISION RIFLE ON A ROOFTOP.\n\nDavid cap: patience, precision. Those are the main attributes any art restorer must have. My father used to repeat that mantra over and over, patience is key. If you lack patience, you will lack precission. And if you lack precission, you will lack experience.\n\n5:\nOPEN SHOT OF A MAN GETTING SHOT IN THE HEAD. TWO BODYGUARDS BEHIND HIM WATCH IN AWE AS MAN'S HEAD BURSTS OPEN.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPAGE 2: 5 PAGES.\n\n1:\nDAVID LOOKS AT THE PAINTING, LOOKING FOR MISSING DETAILS.\n\nDavid cap: my father died when i was seventeen. A heart attack while he was asleep. Doctor said he felt nothing. I am sure he wouldn't have felt a thing, even if he were awake.\n\nDavid cap: i don't mean my father was mean or cruel to me, he never raised a hand against me, quite the contrary, he defended me from bullies until i learned to do it myself.\n\n2:\nDAVID, AS A KID, FIGHTS AGAINST A BULLY, THE BULLY IS BIGGER THAN DAVID, DAVID HAS SOME BRUISES AND A BLACK EYE. IN THE BACKGROUND. DAVID'S FATHER WATCHES.\n\nDavid cap: he stood there, watching me fight vittorio carmine. Each time he landed a punch on me, i felt like each bone in my body shattered. But i never gave up.\n\n3:\nDAVID, AS A KID, LANDS A PUNCH DIRECTLY ON BULLY'S FACE. DAVID'S FATHER STILL WATCHES.\n\n4:\nBULLY IS ON THE GROUND, DAVID IS SITTING ON HIS CHEST TO IMMOVILIZE HIM, AS HE BEATS THE BULLY SAVAGELY.\n\n5:\nP.O.V. SHOT OF BULLY'S FACE AS DAVID PUNCHES HIM MERCILESSLY.\n\nDavid cap: i must admit...\n\ndavid cap: ...i wanted to spend all day beating vittorio until he stopped breathing. He spent almost all year messing with me, insulting me for not having a mother, mocking me because i was an albino lion “COTTON SWAP”, “WHITE FAG”, “ABOMINATION”, i amde him swallow each insult...\n\ndavid cap: ...but i wanted more, i had the advantage. And i wanted him to stop mocking me, or anyone else.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPAGE 3: 5 PANELS\n\n1:\nDAVID'S FATHER GRABS DAVID'S HAND SO DAVID STOPS BEATING BULLY. BULLY IS ALMOST PASSED OUT, DAVID LOOKS AT HIS FATHER, SURPRISED.\n\nDavid's father: it's over. He knows you will fight back, and how far you will go.\n\n2:\nDAVID'S FATHER PUTS SOME BANDAGES ON DAVID'S HAND.\n\nDavid's father: killing is easy, beating a fallen guy over and over is easy.\n\nDavid's father: life is not meant to be easy. That's why the thieves never thrive, cus they made no effort, they just took form someone else. Their wealth is meant to end, and their peace ends with it.\n\n3:\nDAVID AS A KID, LOOKS AT HIS BANDAGED HAND.\n\nDavid: then...we are meant to always take the hard road? What if vittorio tries to mock me again?\n\nDavid's father: then, and only then, you beat him again, and again. Until he learns he can't mock you without getting a proper beating.\n\nDavid's father: and believe me, even the dumbest imbecile learns faster with a beating than with words...\n\ndavid's father: ...but you must always give them the chance to listen to words, before listening to your punches.\n\n4:\nDAVID'S FATHER CARRIES DAVID ON HIS HAND.\n\nDavid cap: for my father, violence was a resource. Not the last, nor the first, violence was the resource to use, when dialogue and reasoning failed, only then, not before, not after.\n\n5:\nON THE GROUND, BULLY'S FATHER, BEATEN UP BADLY, BUT ALIVE, TRIES TO GET UP.\n\nDavid cap: vittorio and his father learned the lesson.\n\nDavid's cap: and so did i.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPAGE 4: 5 PANELS.\n\n1:\nDAVID TAKES A BREAK FROM THE RESTORATION WORK.

But he also knew that we are meant to take our own decisions and make our own choices. The best way to learn that fire burns, is trying to touch fire and getting burnt by it.\n\n4:\nDAVID HOLDS THE EMPTY GLASS IN HIS HAND.\n\nDavid cap: after his death. I made my choices, always with his teachings in mind.\n\nDavid cap: i touched fire, i got burned.\n\n5:\nDAVID FIGHTING A GROUP OF THUGS.\n\nDavid cap: now, i know how close i can get to the fire before burning up.

We may have a job for you.\n\nDavid: what is it?\n\n2:\nDAVID TAKES OFF HIS SAFETY GOGGLES.\n\nVoice at phone: well. Apparently, some schmucks at little savannah are not aware that we don't like drug dealers and similar scum.\n\nVoice at phone: mister woo has asked me to contact you.\n\nDavid: and how is it that mister woo hasn't dealt with these new guys himself?\n\nVoice at phone: he tried...\n\n3:\nSIX MEN, DEAD, HANGING FROM A BRIDGE.\n\nVoice at phone cap: ...he sent six pacifiers to deal with them. They were turned into rear view mirror decorations.\n\n4:\nDAVID TAKING OFF HIS SHIRT, WE CAN SEE SOME OF HIS SCARS.\n\nDavid: what do we have on these new guys?\n\nVoice at phone: well, for starters, they are very rude, they lack your...tact for the dirty stuff. They are taking over mister woo's zone.\n\nVoice at phone: the old hamster needs you, david. You know how much it costed us to keep this place clean from that crap. These guys think mister woo is weak, only because he is not a blood thirsty maniac like them.\n\nDavid: i see.\n\n\n\n\nPAGE 7: 5 PANELS.\n\n1:\nDAVID WEARS A BLACK TURTLE NECK SWEATER.\n\nVoice at phone: mister woo wants to talk with you about this situation.

These new guys are trying to take over my territory just because they think i am soft.\n\n2:\nMISTER WOO AND DAVID WALKING ON THE RESIDENCE'S GARDENS.\n\nMister woo: i took little savannah back from sutkovich and his gang, many died to achieve the peace we have now. I know i did terrible things to achieve that peace. But even so, these new guys think they can come over. so...\n\nmister woo: ...i think they need a bigger lesson. Namely, you.\n\nMister woo: we grew up together, david. You helped me against bullies in school and college, you had no reason to do such a thing. I was just a nerdy hamster on a predators district. We took different roads, i made some bad choices i must live with now.\n\nDavid: i know. I also know you never forced anyone, i know you managed to get all this, without killing unnecesarily.\n\nMister woo: killing a hundred men is easy, david. But. Show one of them how strong you are, and how in control you are, and that man will tell that to a hundred men, and so will each one of them. Killing is easy. But achieving real control and respect from people, that takes effort.\n\n3:\nMISTER WOO AND DAVID WALKING ON THE RESIDENCE'S GARDENS.\n\nMister woo: i want them out of little savannah, but i dont want a war, i have the men, and the equipment to wipe them out, but, i don't want the collateral damage. Is the least i owe to little savannah, even a criminal like me, does honor his home, david.\n\nDavid: what do we know about these guys?\n\n4:\nZAO TSE, A PANDA, SITTING AT HIS DESK.\n\nMister woo cap: his name is zao tse. He leads the SEVEN HEADED DRAGON GANG, a group of drug dealers from beijing, apparently, they think it's a good time to open a branch in this side of the world, and they chose little savannah because they think i am weak, because i am not as violent as they are.\n\nMister woo cap: the seven headed dragon gang deals with all the things i dont want here, drugs, sexual slavery, child traficcking, illegal deathmatch arenas. Zao tse wants to bring all that filth here.\nI won't allow it.\n\n\n\n\nPage 9: 4 panels.\n\n1:\nUNDERAGE KIDS, CHAINED TO A WALL, NAKED AND WEARING MOUTH GAGS AND BLINDFOLDED, AS MEN IN SHADOWS WATCH THEM.\n\nMister woo cap: they sell children for breeding and mating camps. And they even kill their families to make sure the kids have nowhere to go if they ever manage to escape.\n\n2:\nMISTER WOO AND DAVID SITTING ON CHAIRS UNDER A TREE, MISTER WOO SHOWS DAVID A VIAL OF A BLUE SUBSTANCE.\n\n\nMister woo: this is DRAGON TEARS. A superdrug zao tse developed. Super addictive. It's a stimulant, imagine twenty shots of adrenaline at once. This filth is given to his slaves, that's how he keeps them on a leash.\n\nMister woo: I DONT WANT DRUGS ON LITTLE SAVANNAH. Drugs killed my father..and almost killed me...i know i am not a saint. But, even i have limits. Drugs are where i stand my ground.\n\nMister woo: my men seized a lab on rwanda square, small, but they got rid of two thousand of these things. More than enough to start a business. Zao tse knows the potential of this territory, there are many kids here, a new market for this filth.\n\n3:\nCECIL, A MOLE, APPEARS.\n\nCecil: well, david, as i told you when i called you earlier.

So are our resources.\n\n\n4:\nDAVID TALKS TO CECIL AND MISTER WOO.\n\nDavid: and, what i must do with zao tse after i get him?\n\nMister woo: whatever it takes to make him understand that little savannah is out of his reach, permanently.\n\nDavid: ok.\n\n\n\n\n\nPAGE 10: 4 PANELS.\n\n1:\nDAVID WALKS AWAY, CECIL AND MISTER WOO WATCH HIM GO.\n\n2:\nCECIL HOLDS MISTER WOO'S HAND.\n\nCecil: it will all be ok, david will save us from zao tse.
