CUT TO:

INT. INTERCONNECTING VESTIBULE 6. CONTINUOUS. NIGHT

David finally catches up with the Guard in the Vestibule just outside the Guard’s Van and pulls open
the connecting door.

GUARD

...(Someone) suspicious in toilet C-D.

David crosses to the Guard. David shows his police warrant card.

DAVID

Sergeant David Budd, Metropolitan Police. What’s going on?

The Guard reacts.

DAVID

(CONT’D) You’ve got an intelligence report for an Asian male in his twenties?

GUARD

(Immediately on edge.) How do you know about that?

DAVID

I saw you checking out the guy in my carriage. He’s fine but I saw someone acting suspiciously at
Marston. I don’t know if he succeeded in boarding the train. But if he did he could be in the toilet.

The Guard looks extremely concerned.

DAVID

(CONT’D) Look, I’m an Operational Firearms Commander with Specialist Protection. What’s the
plan?

GUARD

British Transport Police have put out an alert on a possible suicide bomber attempting to board a
London-bound service. We’ve been ordered to stop the train at Barnet Shed. (Off David’s
questioning look.) It’s a derelict depot out in the sticks. SO... 19

David corrects the Guard.

DAVID

SCO19.
 GUARD

They’re gonna board the train.

DAVID

How long till we get there? The Guard checks time on her mobile phone.

GUARD

7 minutes.

The Guard looks shaky as hell.

DAVID

He won’t detonate in the toilet. He’ll go into the carriage for maximum casualties.
