Black screen we hear Lovett and Die talking.
Die: “Who the hell still goes into banks now days?
Lovett: “Me, I don’t trust the internet with my money, it could all just disappear.”
Die: “But you are drawing money out; what’s wrong with the cash machine?”
Fade from black to Lovett and Die walking up to a bank with two big doors. Lovett is wearing her bi red coat blue jeans and purple DM’s. Die is in his black suit white tie and sky blue tie.
Lovett: “I like dealing face to face with people.”
Die: “But…”
Lovett: “You don’t have to come with me you know!”
Die: “I’m bored; so I will.”
Lovett: “Shut up then.”
The drums form the start of Ballroom Blitz by Sweet start to play as Lovett and Die get in the queue the camera pans around the bank and the people in it.
We focus on a tall man with a black bag as Brian Connolly sings
-“Are you ready Steve? Uh-huh”-
Then another man with a black bag
-“Andy? Yeah”-
Then another man with a black bag
-“Mick? Okay” “Alright fellas, let’s go!”-
The song kicks in full. We pan round at other people there a man and woman mid-twenties each is carrying a guitar case.
-“Oh it’s been getting so hard”-
-“Living with the things you do to me”-
A woman late thirties with a little girl about seven
-“My dreams are getting so strange”-
-“I’d like to tell you everything I see”-
-“Oh, I see a man in the back as a matter of fact”-
There is a man at the back all in back he has red rimed eyes from a cold and is holding a handkerchief and a with a black bag
-“His eyes was as red as the sun”-
In the corner by the doors is a woman sitting in a chair with a black bag
-“And the girl in the corner that no one ignores”-
-“’Cause she thinks she’s the passionate one”-
Lovett is looking around and squinting and get suspicious at the men with black bags. She elbows Die and slightly nods. There is an older woman just in front of her with a big shopping bag.
-“Oh yeah! It was like lightning”-
-“Everybody was frightening”-
Die starts subtly looking round too; as we pan around some more.
-“And the music was soothing”-
The couple with the guitar cases move forward in the queue.
-“And they all started grooving”-
Die taps under his left arm so Lovett sees, she shakes her head. And reaches inside her coat and hands him one of her batons.
-“Yeah, yeah, yeah-yeah-yeah”-
-“And the man in the back said, “Everyone attack””-
The man in black with the handkerchief (at the back) shouts.
Man in black: “NOW!”
-“And it turned into a ballroom blitz”-
All the men with black bags pull out guns and we see woman on the chair slow stands up
-“And the girl in the corner said, “Boy I want to warn you”-
Man in black: “Everyone on the floor!”
-“It’ll turn into a ballroom blitz”-
-“Ballroom blitz, ballroom blitz, ballroom blitz, ballroom blitz”-
The customers and tellers move to lie down and Die and Lovett move to attack.
