Plumley’s eyes
widen. He runs up to Slater and decks him in the face with a hard right hand.
Slater absorbs the blow. His cheek starts to bleed. But he remains in his
position.
PLUMLEY
You shut up!
SLATER
How many years has
it been?
Plumley grabs him by
his shirt. Tears begin to well up in his eyes.
PLUMLEY
I said shut up! You
don’t know nothin’ about me or my family!
Plumley hits him
again.
SLATER
Melissa was six
years old when you caught that murder charge. You’d be in jail right now…or
dead…if it wasn’t for that man.
Slater points to
Edmond Lau.
SLATER
He convinced the
courts to let you serve out your sentence as a dummy for the Bass Foundation.
And he convinced you into believing that you’re a deadbeat father and that you
deserved to be beaten for the rest of your life.
