EXT. TOWER OF LONDON - DAY
We hear the sounds of drumbeat.
JOB, (early 30's) is led to the scaffolding by the heavy-set
EXECUTIONER, who wears a black hood.
The courtyard is crowded by on-looking MEMBERS OF THE COURT.
Job is positioned behind the chopping block.
Drum comes to a dramatic stop.
EXECUTIONER
Any last words?
JOB
Yes.
(clears throat)
Sorry.
(coughs)
Sorry. Does anyone have a lozenge?
I'm just... my throat is dry from
being all nervous about dying and
everything.
(beat; silence)
No? Okay, well... I think I have
some gum in my pantaloons up in
Bell Tower...
