Final Fantasy VII Script

Scene 20
- I'll Smash Them -

(Cloud, Tifa, and Aerith are in Don Corneo's bedroom)

Tifa
         "Shut up, we're asking the questions now..."
         "What did your assistants find out? Talk! If you don't tell us..."

(Cloud puts a foot up on the bed.)

Cloud
         "...I'll chop them off."

(Don jumps.)

Don Corneo
         "No! Not that! I'll talk! I'll tell you everything!"

Tifa
         "So... talk."

Don Corneo
         "...I made 'em find out where the man with the gun-arm was. But that's what I was ordered to do."

Tifa
         "By who?"

Don Corneo
         "No--! If I told you that, I'd be killed!"

Tifa
         "Talk! If you don't tell us..."

(Aerith puts her foot up on the bed.)

Aerith
         "...I'll rip them off."

Don Corneo
         "Waaaaah--! It was Heidegger of Shinra!"
         "Heidegger, the head of Public Safety Maintenance!"

Cloud
         "The head of Public Safety Maintenance?"

Tifa
         "Did you say the Shinra!? What are they up to!? Talk!"
         "If you don't tell us..."

(Tifa puts her foot up on the bed.)

Tifa
         "I'll smash them."

Don Corneo
         "...You're serious, aren't you.... ...ohboy, ohboy, ohboy."
         "... I'm not fooling around here either, you know."
         "Shinra's trying to crush a small rebel group called AVALANCHE, and want to infiltrate their hiedout."
         "And they're really going to crush them... literally."
         "By breaking the support holding up the plate above them."

(Tifa steps back.)

Tifa
         "Break the support!?"

Don Corneo
         "You know what's going to happen? The plate'll go PING"
         "and everything's gonna go BAMMM!! I heard their hideout's in the Sector 7 Slums..."
         "I'm just glad it's not here in Sector 6."

Tifa
         "They're going to wipe out the Sector 7 Slums!?"

(She turns to Cloud.)
 
Tifa
         "Cloud, will you come with me to Sector 7?"

Cloud
         "Of course, Tifa."

(They all stand at the foot of the bed.)

Don Corneo
         "Just a second!"

Cloud
         "Shut up!"

Don Corneo
         "No wait, it'll only take a second."
         "How do you think scum like me feels when they babble on about the truth?"

<CHOICE>
         They've pretty much given up on life
         They're sure they'll win
         They don't know what the hell's going on

***Cloud
         They've pretty much given up on life

Don Corneo
         "Buuzzzzz! Wrong!"

***Cloud
         They're sure they'll win.

Don Corneo
         "Woo-hoo! Right!"

***Cloud
         They don't know what the hell's going on.

Don Corneo
         "Close, but no cigar!"

(He flips a switch and Cloud, Aerith, and Tifa fall through a trap door to the sewer below...)
