Lucas notices that Dobbs is concerned after checking his pistol and finding that he has little ammunition left. When Lucas asks what's wrong, Dobbs takes him aside privately and confesses that he only has three bullets remaining. Dobbs suggests that they search the school's sports hall for potential weapons like cricket bats and javelins. He offers to take the more dangerous mission alone to protect Lucas, but Lucas insists on accompanying Dobbs for safety in numbers.

1. DOBBS takes out his PISTOL and checks to see how much ammo he
has. It turns out that he doesn’t have much. A look of concern
flashes upon his face, fortunately VODKA and ROSIE don’t notice,
but LUCAS does.
LUCAS
What’s wrong?
VODKA and ROSIE look up, interested by the two words that left
the mouth of the rookie cop. DOBBS notices this, and leads LUCAS
to the side
DOBBS
Can I speak to you in private please?
DOBBS takes LUCAS to the side of the room away from the praying
ears of the Irish criminals
LUCAS
Will, what’s going on?
DOBBS
(Sighs)
I’ve only got three bullets left
LUCAS
What?
DOBBS
Shhh, keep your voice down
VODKA
(Calling over)
What’s with all the secret meetings
over there? Something you want to share
with the rest of the class?
DOBBS
(To VODKA)
Will you children be quiet please? The
adults here are trying to speak.
LUCAS is trying to stay calm DOBBS turns back to her.
DOBBS
Look, at least we have the guns. It
could be worse
LUCAS
How could it be worse Will? We are in a
fucking school that is surrounded by… I
don’t know what and our only company
are two murder suspects
DOBBS
Do you still have the gun that you
confiscated off Rosie?
LUCAS
Yeah

2. DOBBS
How much ammo does it have?
LUCAS
I’ve no idea.
DOBBS
Give it here
DOBBS checks the gun
DOBBS
Well you have a full clip, which is
better than nothing, but we need some
more ways of killing these… things if
we’re going to survive this
LUCAS
I agree, but what?
DOBBS
Does this school have a gym?
LUCAS
It has a sports hall
DOBBS
Excellent, that should have things like
cricket bats, javelins, sharp objects,
things that can double up as weapons.
Here, let me take your gun and you can
have mine
LUCAS
OK
They switch guns
LUCAS
Are you sure about this? I mean what if
no one is coming?
DOBBS
Look it will be fine OK, just be ready
to take aim if you need to.
LUCAS
But I haven’t had the training
DOBBS
Well, then this is your training
LUCAS tries to hold back the tears; DOBBS places his hand on her
shoulders.
DOBBS
Hey, come on now it’s going to be fine
ok? We’ll get out of this without a
scratch and get on with our lives. One
day this will just be a bad memory. So
let’s just get through this one thing.

3. LUCAS
(Pointing to VODKA and ROSIE)
But what about those two?
DOBBS
They’ll have to stay here, under your
supervision
LUCAS
You mean you’re going alone?
DOBBS
Yeah, you didn’t think I was going to
risk your life with this did you?
LUCAS
I didn’t think, I expected you to want
me to come with you, were a team
remember
DOBBS
Jill, you have a bright future ahead of
you, I’m not going to put your life at
risk for the sake of a couple of tennis
rackets
LUCAS
Can we just put “us” to one side here
and deal with the situation at hand?
DOBBS
This isn’t about “us” Jill this is
about a matter of surviving.
LUCAS
I’m going with you
DOBBS
I’m going alone ok. End of discussion.
