| [A hidden door in the wall opens up revealing a figure. A short figure.] | |
| Girls : | Swan! Swan! Swan! |
| Winslow : | Oh Mr. Swan. You remember me. I'm Winslow Leach. |
| Girls : | Swan! Swan! Swan! Let me be first! Swan! Swan! |
| Swan : | [To
the bodyguard.] Get this fag out of here. |
| Winslow : | Mr. Swan. It's me, Winslow. Don't you remember? I gave Mr. Philbin a copy of my cantata -- you know, Faust? |
| [Bodyguard # 3 picks up Winslow and starts carrying him towards a trap door.] | |
| Winslow : | You were supposed to look at it and do it. And you're auditioning girls for my cantata! I'm Winslow Leach! I wrote it! Hey, where are you going with me, buster? Hey, Swan! |
| [Winslow is carried out of the room.] | |
| Swan : | Telephone. |
| [Winslow wakes up outside the Swanage, after being beaten up and still in a dress.] | |
| Cop #1 : | Hey! Hey! Wake up! That's him! |
| Cop #2 : | What do you think you're doing? |
| Winslow : | Nothing. |
| Cop #2 : | What are you, some kind of pervert? |
| Winslow : | No sir. I'm, I'm, I'm Winslow Leach, the composer. |
| Cop #1 : | What are you doing outside the Swanage? |
| Winslow : | Listen officers. You gotta help me. Mr. Swan's got my music, and he's pretending he doesn't even know me. He had me thrown out of the mansion and beaten up. |
| Cop #2 : | Didn't want to buy what you had to sell, did he. |
| Winslow : | He - He didn't say anything about buying anything. |
| Cop #1 : | Hey Jack, what's that he's got in his purse? |
| Cop #2 : | I don't know Joe. Why don't you take a look? |
| Cop #1 : | I think I will. |
| [Cop #2 takes a bag of crack out of his pocket and drops it in the purse.] | |
| Cop #2 : | Mr. Swan said he had it on him. |
| Cop #1 : | What do you know. Smack, Jack. |
| Cop #2 : | Do you know what you could get for pushing in this state? |
| [Scene jumps to courtroom.] | |
| Judge : | Life! |
| Winslow : | But I'm innocent! Swan's stole my music and framed me! |
| [Sing Sing Prison, a group of prisoners are brought into the Warden's office, including Winslow.] | |
| Warden : | Welcome to Sing Sing. We are very fortunate to be including in the Dental Health Research Program. This is a volunteer program funded by the Swan Foundation. You are all volunteers. All your teeth will be pulled. Teeth are a source of infection and it pays to be on the safe side. |
| Winslow : | Sir, pardon me. I'm not a volunteer. I'm innocent. I don't want you to take my teeth out. |
| Warden : | Oh... How many men here are innocent? Raise your hands. |
| [Winslow raises his hand but when he sees all the others raise their hands too, he looks worried.] | |
| Warden : | All innocent. [Snickers.] |
