Butch's Place in the Sun by Louisa Allyn
FADE IN -- DAY
Location: South America May 1908
Scene: Total darkness, sound of a wagon bumping over rock, dust, and jarring very apparent.
ETTA

I'm suffocating.


She opens a triangle flap of oilcloth revealing enough light to make out three jostled and cranky individuals.
BUTCH

(through teeth clenching his belt in his mouth)

Here, bite. It will keep you from splitting your tongue.
Etta reaches out to loop the belt thru her mouth and you hear the crack of her teeth.
ETTA

No more damn buckboards! I'm not gonna miss this at all!


Blood is already breaking over Sundance's lip and his mouth appears to have red in it.
SUNDANCE

Why a buckboard? If its tracks you need, why didn't we just take the carriage?


BUTCH

Too easy to spot. No one would carry this kind of weight in a carriage, even if it went twice as fast.


The driver starts to flap on the oilcloth as if he actually expected them to be resting.
JUAN

Seniors! Seniorita! You must jump off here!


BUTCH/SUNDANCE

JUMP?
JUAN

Yes, yes! If I stop the wagon and the horses stand, they will know someone got off! You must jump at the end of this big rock! Quickly! Quickly!
Scrambling, grabbing saddle bags. Sundance grabs Etta's waist as Butch starts flinging bags out and as far away from the wagon as he can.
ETTA

Wait! Wait! Juan, thank you and your family for all they have done.

(She hands him a piece of paper)

Take this, look at it and then swallow it.


JUAN

Swallow it?


ETTA

Yes, it shows a place at the tree, where you picked us up and an area to retrieve a gift in return for this great thing you have done. Fare well, Friend.


JUAN

Farewell Amigo's Lady. Now! You must jump, NOW!


Turning as if in one motion, saddle bags around his neck and over his arm, Butch jumps down and turns to swing Etta to her feet as she jumps with two bags and picks another from the ground. Sundance is carrying three or four and splitting the final four with Butch as they head over solid rock and very upward. The poignant aspect is the number of bags they are carrying between them; money, gold, gems, water, food and paperwork.
BUTCH

Gee, is this all we have? I thought there was more?


ETTA

Wait'll Juan climbs that tree!


Credits start to roll as they climb and climb, not hurrying, just climbing.
