FADE IN:
ROYAL FLUSH
Khalil Sha’ban Naifeh, an Arab-American, and Jay Mistry, a Brit from
Norwich, are enjoying a calm night of poker. The two have been wanting
a break for a while and are taking this chance gladly. The calm
atmosphere allows them to feel at home and express their thoughts
without mincing their words, especially in regards of their boss…
KHALIL
Discard these three. (Pushes three cards, face
down, towards Jay)
JAY
(Taking the cards and putting them in the middle
of the deck.)Gotta say, I been needing this break
for a while. Last time I had a break from jobs was
back in April last year.
KHALIL
Boss ain’t gonna let up, kinda admirable at first
but when you been serving him for a while, you
realize how much of a tool he can be
JAY
(Deals cards) The boss is just some bigged up
nutter who carries himself round like he’s all
that.
KHALIL
As long as he pays me I’m happy. (Looks at cards
and smiles) Five of a kind. I believe that I win.
(Smile turns sinister)
JAY
What? What you doi…
Jay is suddenly bagged and dragged to the boot of a car alongside the
stolen the stolen possessions from the burglary that was conducted
earlier. Khalil stands over him.
KHALIL
That’ll teach you to disrespect your boss,
bigshot. I’ll pass on your message and the boss
will figure out your punishment.
Khalil walks out as the car drives and the last shot is the message on
his phone reading, “Got him boss. What do we do with him?” The reply is
instantaneous; “Eliminate all threats”
