(MC RORYS PUB)
(Nate and Sterling are sitting at a vacant table)
(Sterling looks around like it isn't safe)
Nate: What? Eliot's not coming.
Sterling: good.
Nate: so what's your job proposal?
(Sterling looks around, obviously out of sorts)
Nate: Sterling.
Sterling: huh? What?
Nate: what's your problem?
Sterling: my problem? Oh yeah. Some people are trying to kill me.
Nate: Who wouldn't want to?
Sterling: I'm serious.
Nate: Okay? What men?
Sterling: I don't know...men.
Nate: did you see any of these men?
Sterling: No- by I heard them talk about, Ian.
Nate: what did they say about him?
Sterling: they were talking about their salary wages and how they needed to do something about it cause hey needed more money or something.
Nate: Well, maybe Ian wants you out of the business.
Sterling(frowns and looks at Nate for the first time): Look...I really need your help, there are people looking for me.
Nate: okay, can you tell me anything else about the men?
Sterling: All I know is that they work for Ian.
Nate: Well, have you talked to Ian, yet?
Sterling: no what if someone's waiting for me there?
(Nate realizes it's a hopeless case)
Sterling: or they could be back at my hotel. Or they could even b-be...here.
Nate(looks around noticing that someone was looking at them a table away): okay. There is somebody here. But we'll be fine if you...just act normal.
Sterling: W-What how do you know?
Nate: All I need you to do is follow my directions, okay?
Sterling: O-Okay.
Nate: Now stand up and head towards my condo.
(Sterling gets up and starts walking away but before he could get there the man who was staring at them pulls a gun out and points it at their table)
Nate: James!
(Nate gets up and tackles Sterling to the ground as the bullet misses Sterlings head and hits Nate in the shoulder. everyone runs out of the bar)
Nate: Ah.
(Sterling gets up and ducks behind a counter)
Sterling: Nate! Get over here!
(Nate drags himself toward the counter)
Nate: You owe me one.
Sterling: yeah...right.
(The man approaches them step by step his gun trained on the last spot he had seen Sterling and Nate)
(Nate leans against the counter)
Sterling: it an open wound.
Nate: you think?! Do you even know anything about- you know what nevermind!
(Nate managed to take his jacket off to see blood covering his shoulder)
Sterling: The bullet is over there it must've richocheted or something.
(The man fires another shot hitting a wine bottle and it shatters)
Nate: Get down!
Sterling: what are we going to do?
Nate: Create a distraction and run towards my condo?
Sterling: okay.
(The man fires a third time hitting the counter where they were hiding behind)
(Nate looks at the door to his condo)
Nate(thinking out loud): We have to get to the door...we have to get to the door...
Sterling: what's the distraction?
Nate: Give me a second!
(Sterling looks around as the man switches guns and opens fire repeatedly in their direction. Sterling ducks)
Nate: This is ridiculous! You asking me for help then me still having to save you!!
Sterling: What? It's not my fault that you let him shoot you! Why're you blaming me!?
Nate(rolls eyes and mumbles): You would too if you were in my position! And now Sophie is gonna be pissed!
Sterling: Its not my fault-
Nate: I got it!! Get ready to run!
(Sterling rolls eyes)
Nate: ...one...
(More shots are fired)
Nate: ...two...
(The man pauses to reload)
Nate: ...three...
(Nate and Sterling run towards the door)
(When they get inside Sterling locks the door)
Nate: what are you doing! He has a gun!!
(Sterling and Nate run into Nate's condo)
Parker: Oh hi Nate!
(Parker rushes towards Nate and hugs him)
Nate: Ow!
(Parker sees Sterling behind Nate)
Parker: Ew! What's Sterling doing here?
Nate: it's sort of a long story.
Sophie: Nate!
Nate: yes?
Sophie: You're shot!
Nate(looks at Sterling then back at Sophie): Yeah well there was this guy...and...
Sterling: He saved me!
(Nate gives Sterling a weird look and Sterling notices)
Sterling: What?
Nate(whispers): nothing just a while ago you said that it was all my fault and you know what nevermind...
(Eliot comes out of the room)
Eliot: what's he doing here?!
Nate: He needs our help.
Eliot: The last time I checked we do our cons as a team not just one damn individual. And now look you got shot for him!
Nate(sighs): Eliot, please spare me the lecture!
(Sophie had ignored what everyone else was saying. she seemed focus on Nate's shoulder)
Sophie: Nate! You're shot! You helped him dodge a bullet again!!!
Nate: I-I know...
Sophie: You said that you wouldn't be walking into his trap again!
Nate: I didn't- he needs our help!
(Hardison walks into the room)
Hardison: Uh? What's Sterling doing here?
(Nate tries to explain but before he can bullets fly through the wall)
Nate: Duck!
(Everyone ducks)
Eliot: Who's shooting?
Nate: someone who's after Sterling
(Parker glances at Sterling as if he had done something wrong. Sterling notices)
Sterling: what?
Parker: You got Nate shot!
Nate: Parker- we've been over this!
Eliot: Hardison, can you create a virtual barrier between the door and the shooter?
Hardison: Sure can.
(Pulls out his tablet and gets to work)
(Sophie goes over to Nate)
Sophie: I still can't believe Sterling got you shot!
Nate: It's fine. Really! I'm fine.
Sophie: No you're not! You're shirt is covered in blood!
(Nate looks down. He hadn't realized that he was covered in blood from the shot)
Nate: well maybe I'm not fine but it wasn't Sterlings fault.
Eliot: we have to leave now!
(Parker goes over to Hardison)
Hardison: yes! It worked!
Eliot: okay lets go!
(Everyone gets up and hurries down the stairs)
