Forging Ahead part 8
FORGING AHEAD by Jimmy Connerly (based on an idea by Rico)
...continued
Scene Four Ext. Nelson Mandella House, not
long after.
Del, Rodney, Trigger and
Grandad all exit Nelson Mandella House, walking towards the
car-parking area.
Grandad: Say he don't tell us.
Rodney: Yeah, we don't even know if he'll see us. And how shall we
bring it up?
Del: Leave it to me, I'll get it out of him.
The four continue to walk.
Del: We'll carefully word the questions, let him know that we know.
He knows how much money's at stake so I'd reckon he'd weigh it up.
Just let me do the talking. I'll let him know he'll get a cut, he
knows we won't con him. He's crafty but he ain't stupid, I reckon
he'll be as good as gold so long as we.......
Rodney: (Pulls at Del's lapel) Del-boy!
Del looks up, they have got to where the van was parked. Del looks
at the scene aghast. The back of the van has been forced open. Two
interior 'plastic panels' have been ripped out and are hanging
outside of the van. Boxes of 'handy ghandi's litter the floor. Del
stands in stunned silence. Del looks at Rodney.
Del: He knew where it was all the time.
Rodney: Well he did as soon as he knew we still had the van.
Del: He'd have banked on it being moved years ago. I bet he
couldn't have believed his luck!
Rodney: That's why dad never had the opportunity last year.
You had the van most of the time while you were keeping out of his
way.
Del: I always wondered why Inky agreed to do the lettering for
nothing.
Trigger holds and looks at one of the panels and nods, it looks
familiar to him. He pulls it back slightly and looks behind it. He
reaches his hand in gingerly and pulls out a pound note.
Trigger: Look, he left one behind!
Del: (Forlorn) Oh good. And there was me thinking he'd got away
with the lot!
