INT. OBCO OFFICE MEETING ROOM - DAY
The FBI agents, Alan, and some other people are in a big meeting room, in the middle of a meeting. Alan's mobile phone rings. He looks at it, slightly annoyed, and answers it.
ALAN
Alan Z.
VERA
I know what you did. I'm sitting in your home office looking at your files.
ALAN
(Covers the phone with a hand.)I'm sorry, guys, I need to take this. I'll only be a minute or two.
Alan rises from his chair, and goes outside the meeting room to talk.
ALAN
OK, I can talk now.
VERA
I know what you did. How could you? And why?
ALAN
What do you mean?
VERA
I'm sitting at your home computer. You have such interesting recordings here. Who are these guys, Red and Green?
ALAN
Oh dear.
VERA
You can say that again. What's going on, Alan? I never figured you for a terrorist.
ALAN
You don't understand. It wasn't supposed to be like that.
VERA
Yeah, right.
ALAN
No, really.
VERA
Well, I'm not going to take the fall for this. Neither is Carl. You're going down.
ALAN
Yeah, I know. I have been setting up a situation where I can tell and walk. You two are soldiers in my troops. You don't think I'd leave you like that?
VERA
I wouldn't have thought you'd put us in this position in the first place.
ALAN
It all went horribly wrong. I didn't know you had connections with the Russian Mafia.
VERA
Only because I grew up in a bad neighborhood.
ALAN
Here's what I propose. I'll call the FBI agent I know right now, while I leave the building. I don't want to go to prison for this, so I'll make a run for it, but I'll tell them everything I did. Is that acceptable?
VERA
You have five minutes. After that, I'll make a phone call of my own.
