ACT 3

(Fade in from black)

Scene Location: Chief Bogo's office, Zootopia PD HQ Time: Morning

Scene: Bogo is at his desk when there's a knock on the door.

Bogo: Enter

Scene: Officer Larry Purina dressed in his civilian clothes enters. He is sad, ears downcasted....

Larry: Chief? Can I talk to you?

Scene: Bogo offers a chair then leans on the corner of his desk.

Larry: I want to return to duty Chief.....Please....Something....anything....

Bogo: Admirable.....but not possible at the moment. It's policy Larry.

Larry: I have to do something Chief!

Bogo: What can you add that we aren't covering Officer Purina?

Larry: Something....just doing nothing is tearing me up! I smell him....I smell him on our clothes, I smell him in my bed...the bastard killed everything Gary was to me Chief! Sitting around makes me feel ashamed of myself...I should be out there hunting the bastard who took him from me down....(Lary sobs)....I don't know if I can live without him....Please?

Scene: Chief Bogo takes Larry by the shoulders...

Bogo: Larry?.....look at me...

Scene: Larry looks at Bogo and sees the tears running down his face.

Bogo: Losing Gary is tragedy enough....Losing you too would rip the heart out of this precinct....that's why we can't let you come back...not now. You're not hurting alone Son...and you're not going to be left alone. Gary would never allow you to go out when you could be a liability to the lives and safety of your brothers and sisters and I assure you...we will make sure that he didn't die for nothing. You have our word. But so help me Larry....if you do something stupid? Please tell me you won't do anything stupid?

Scene: Larry shakes his head.

Bogo: We're all here for you Son. Don't break our hearts.

Scene: Larry turns towards the door to see Judy, nick, Wooford, Clawhowser and shockingly......Francine wearing a large cast over her left arm and shoulder...

Francine: (sobbing) Come here Larry.....please?

Scene: Larry shuffles into Francine's body and cries his eyes out....

Francine: His last thoughts were always of you baby....and all of us are thinking of you....we all hurt so much.....don't quit on us?

Wolford: My door's always open Lair. Always.

Judy: So's mine.

Nick: You're not suffering alone.

Clawhowser: This torn up cat toy's been with me since I was a baby....but.....you need it more than I do. We love you Larry.

Scene: Larry takes the cat toy and hugs Clawhowser...

Larry: (smiling) Thank you......all of you.....

Francine: Come on Larry...I'll take you home and sit with you.

Scene: Nick and Judy watch Francine hold Larry as they walk while Bogo returns to his desk. Nick closes the office door as Judy walks up to the desk.

Judy: You do have a soft spot.

Bogo: Please tell me this is important Hopps?

Judy: Sir...we are so very relieved that you and your wife are alright.

Bogo: The idea was the wife's actually...she suggested we set the guy up for a sucker punch because I seem to attract people with bad attitudes. So what do you have for me?

Nick: We felt you needed to be kept informed of our progress. So far we found that the Kinnisons, the conductor and Mister Grove all had ties to Mister Big but there's nothing solid to suggest his involvement nor the involvement of his close rival Bugsy Moran.

Bogo: Are you sure of this? Hopps? Don't think I wasn't aware of your loose relationship with Mister Big's daughter.

Judy: Sir...I would never compromise an investigation for any relationship. Nick can swear to that.

Bogo: Well....you can add two more to your investigation now. This morning after escaping us...he killed again. This time a grizzly bear and his wife, in their bed. The husband was killed. His wife is hanging on by a thread at the hospital. They have two cubs.

Scene: Nick grimaces while Judy's mouth quivers.

Bogo: We recovered a long gun and some sort of camouflage material from the perp and sent it to the FBI (Furry Bureau of Investigations). The city counsel is beginning to push for martial law and police militarization...something everyone fears.....including me. If these two new cases are found to be connected to Mister Big? We will take both him and his rival Moran down....legalisms be damned.

Nick: Chief....it may not be them at all...this could be someone acting totally on their own...and Martial Law? Giving the City counsel that much power? That's bad all around, that is super dangerous...

Bogo: Which is why I gave the two of you this tasking to start with. I expect you both to do your duty despite any personal feelings or thoughts. Clear Big and Moran or have an airtight case we can hand them with; anything I can have in my hands to avoid Martial Law. Hopefully it will not take long for the FBI to come back with some answers. They put the very best to analyze the evidence. You are both dismissed. Get the information on the latest victims from Clawhowser.

Scene: Nick and Judy walk out of the office.

Nick: Just great.....Martial Law? Those idiots in City Hall can't even agree on the color of the sky for fricks sake.

Judy: It might come to it if this creep keeps getting away to kill more innocent animals Nick.

Scene: Nick raises a hand and stops Judy.

Nick: Have you ever read the "Castle Bravo" directive for martial law Fluff?

Judy: No.....They didn't make it a subject at the academy.

Nick: Gee....I thought you were the "studious bookworm" in this relationship? Come on.

Scene: Nick takes Judy to an open desk where he types into the ZPD document archives and brings up the Castle Bravo protocols.

Nick: Now...read Page 112, Section D, paragraph 8, Sub-paragraph 8 Charlie.

Judy: In the event of a terrorist situation (I.E. Bombings, mass casualty causation, active shooter or shooters, or serial mauling of animals where the suspect or suspects are unidentified and remain at large for a period beyond 72 hours...For the public safety and mitigation of physical bodies and to benefit accurate targeting of enemy combatants....all predatory animals will be rounded up, placed in quarantine.......caged......stripped.....muzzled..... collared....

Nick: Public Safety huh?

Judy: They couldn't?.....They wouldn't?.....this policy was approved by Lionheart, he's been gone for a year...

Nick: It is standard policy Carrots....Lionheart or not. The City Counsel approves of it and it doesn't matter if it's a police officer, a cake baker, a firefighter or a floral arranger. And I'll tell you right now....no one is putting hand one on my tail without getting hurt.....or killed.......no.......one. I won't be shoved in a shipping cage and certainly no other predator is going to stand for this and now the city counsel is daring to speak of putting this in operation?

Scene: Nick stares at Judy.

Nick: We have to hurry this up.

Scene: Nick leads Judy out.

Nick: And keep that from happening at all costs.

Scene Shift

Scene Location: Bugsy Moran's Cartage Company Time: Noon

Scene: Bugsy Moran comes into the garage and meets with his main Lieutenant "Machine Gun" Jack McRabbit.

Jack: We did what you asked Boss. Sure lost a lot thanks to that do nothing, flea ridden, flat foot fox and his side kick.

Bugsy: A minor inconvenience. We still have three full trucks of stock to push, we still have our lucky foot scam, our Bingo parlors and....

Scene: Bugs opens up a poster showing Jack something we can't see...

Bugsy: Tell me that won't bring us a pretty penny? Just her feet alone are gold.

Scene: Jack's salivating and drooling tongue pops out until Bugsy bops him off the head.

Bugsy: Cool your volcano there Jack-oh?

Scene: Another rabbit walks into the garage from the front door.

Rabbit: Say boss? Did you order somethin from Paw-a-zon?

Bugsey: No.....why?

Scene: Camera showing the front of the Cartage company. The facade erupts in a fiery explosion!

Scene: The inside of the garage is wrecked, smoke filled with rabbit bodies strewn about. Bugsy has been thrown against a wall but survives. He stumbles through the wreckage to find Jack lying dead. Being his closest friend, Bugsy pulled Jack to his chest and screams....

Scene Shift

Scene Location: Little Rodentia Time: Noon, same time as the Cartage detonation.

Scene: Mister Big is taking his Daughter and Grandchildren shopping in Little Rodentia but "Tall Pauley" is respectfully pleading with him...

Pauley: Mister Big....please....with all respect. If something should happen, we can't provide you adequate protection here...

Mister Big: Pauley? I have always loved you like my son but....I will not live in fear of this.....this bastar-dee-oh. In little Rodentia, he has no place to hide so... relax. Just keep a sharp eye as you always do.

Scene: Mister Big walks with his daughter and grandchildren as Pauley and four other polar bears carefully walk among the small rodent residents...

Sammy Dukes: (Polar Bear) Pauley...I don't like this at all.

Pauley: Then by all means you talk to the boss?

Sammy Dukes: Even with the walls...if this mug has a good rifle.

Pauley: I've already thought about it...he'd better be a damn good shot at a mile and a half....relax.

Scene: Mister Big stops with Angelina and her two children. He gives her money.

Mister Big: Angelina? Take the children and go spoil them. I'm going to buy some fruit for dinner and a cake.

Scene: Angelina kisses her father on the cheek and takes Anthony and Selfina towards the department store on the other side of the street While Mister Big turns to a fruit vendor.

Mister Big: (to vendor) I'll have some of these grapes and please cut up an orange for me.

Scene: We see Angelica and the children about to the end of the crosswalk when the facade of the department store just explodes. We watch the explosion repeat quickly from four different views. Angelica and the children are thrown backwards as are many poor rodents.

Scene: Mister Big turns around in honor.

Scene: Tall Pauley and the polar bears draw pistols and start moving to scoop up Mister Big, Angelica and the children when one gets cut down by an unseen rifle on full auto!

Sammy Dukes: WHERE'S THOSE SHOTS COMING FROM!

Pauley: GET ANGELICA AND THE KIDS! I GOT THE BOSS!

Scene: One bear has pulled an Uzi machine pistol and is unloading down upon the little town as Pauley and Sammy Dukes quickly bend down to retrieve Mister Big and the Family!

(BRRRRRRRRRRAP!)

Shooting Bear: BULL TURDS! WHERE IS THIS BASTARD!

(BRRRRRRRRRRAP!)

Pauley: STOP SHOOTING AND GET TO THE DAMN CAR! Don't worry boss, we got you and the family!

Scene: Pauley gets shot in the shoulder and spun like a top. He falls on his butt but pulls his 45 Colt and blasts off a few rounds while re-gaining his feet.

Pauley: GET THE LEAD OUT SAMMY!

Scene: Sammy is running holding Angelica and the children in his paws. We see him run from the front as the Uzi carrying Polar Bear is torn up behind him from an automatic volley. Angelica and the children are screaming. The camera shows a rear view of Sammy as we see Pauley bound the perimeter wall ahead of him and the limo driver appears with an AR-15 and starts hammering away at the yet unseen target.

Scene: Sammy is hit in the back multiple times as Pauley shows back up at the wall with a shotgun after dropping Mister Big. We see him fall in slow motion losing his grip on Angelica and the children. His body crashes down on them.

Driver: NO!

Scene: The Driver tries to bound the wall but Pauley pulls him down as bullets smack off the wall top.

Pauley: Ten story, fifteen blocks down the main drag, left side.....blow the son of a bitch to dust!

Scene: The driver and Pauley rise up and unload bullets and slug rounds into a building twenty yards in front of them! The building literally shatters to pieces, so does the remote controlled hidden assault rifle.

Scene: The Driver and Pauley approach to stand over the body of their fallen comrade Sammy. Obviously his fallen body has killed Angelic and her children. The camera moves to show Mister Big walking through the gate of Little Rodentia wailing in Italian.

Pauley: Mister Big? We have to get you out of here boss.

Mister Big: crying in Italian

Scene: Pauley scoops Mister Big up as the driver follows behind covering them with his rifle.

Scene Location: The Furry Bureau of Investigations, Downtown Zootopia Time: Same time as the hits on Bugsy Moran and Mister Big

Scene: A door unlocks and the investigating FBI agent, Agent Samaliel a gray arctic fox (artist Pentep from Sofurry.com) dressed in a lab coat with a pair of plastic chemical goggles on his forehead leads Chief Bogo, City Counsel representative Odem Plenty ( A hog ) his assistant Ben Schemer (A large rat) and J Edger Hippo the FBI Director down a hallway...

Odem Plenty: I'm very amazed agent Samaliel that you were able to process the evidence so rapidly.

Samaliel: It was an all night effort. We still have agents at the gun fight site looking for more evidence but what we have so far tells us a lot about this suspect and none of it is good...

Scene: Suddenly a young white arctic fox comes flying down the hallway on a skateboard and wipes out into a trashcan.

Samaliel: Excuse me please?

Scene: Samaliel snatches the young fox by an ear. It's his younger brother Pent (character of artist Pentep sofurry.com)

Samaliel: What did I tell you about fooling around?

Pent: It's the perfect surface to test the new bearings I made for my board bro.

Samaliel: Next time kid? Please watch what you're doing? Get out of here?

Scene: Pent runs off as Samaliel stands with his hands on his hips.

Director Hippo: Agent? You are being way to light on that boy.

Samaliel: Have too Sir. I don't want to diss my best chemist.

Scene: Samaliel leads everyone into the main lab.

Chief Bogo: So what have you found out about this Perp?

Samaliel: He's not from Zootopia.

Scene: Samaliel leans over the table where he has the suspect's assault rifle laying.

Samaliel: The prints on the rifle match no inhabitants. The caliber of this thing makes one of our army tanks look like a pea shooter. It's no caliber in our registry, this thing rips up our cars, goes clear through our buildings and turns organs into mush. The rifle is of superior metals, wonderful engineering, machining that's beyond anything Zootopians do.

Scene: Samaliel directs the party to the netted guili suit.

Samaliel: Now this is a stroke of brilliance. You can weave vegetation all through this net suit and "whoop" instant camouflage. We found body paint in one of the pockets, various animal call devices you can use to mimic deer, elk, moose, bears, pasture animals.

Director Hippo: What's your results Agent?

Samaliel: We're dealing with an apex predator and we're all deli food.

Chief Bogo: That's not funny.

Samaliel: Do you see me laughing Chief? We're facing a highly advanced and intelligent "being" and he is most certainly not an animal. We tested fiber, hair and skin samples we found on this suit? He's not even a primate....he's a higher level life form with a high intelligence, superior motor skills, a fast thinking brain and absolutely ruthless. Compared to him and pardon me Mister City Counselman? We are all dinner on a plate with apples shoved in our mouths to this creep.

Odem Plenty: What are our chances of stopping him?

Samaliel: Right now? The edge is his. He can strike when and where he wishes and given his intelligence and character? Not soon enough. You'd have to be very lucky or reduce his access to appealing targets of opportunity. Right now from his track record...he's avoiding small animals....after all....why waste a bullet on a mouse?

Odem Plenty: It seems we have few options but to act decisively. Mister Director? I will be putting Castle Bravo into motion for the counsel's approval.

Chief Bogo: Mister Plenty, with all due respect Sir, I am begging you not to proceed with Martial Law, give the ZPD time to nail this perp.

Odem Plenty: And how much time can we spare Chief? Another five bodies? Ten? A hundred? You heard Agent Samaliel, we must act now to reduce the available targets for this criminal to kill.

Chief Bogo: Martial Law is not the solution Sir. Need I remind you that Castle Bravo would remove may good officers from my ranks to say nothing of the repercussions of tossing every predator animal in a cage for a want of community safety?

Odem Plenty: Might I remind you Chief that this killer is himself a predation animal? His success may stir latent desires in our predator population. That is a risk I will not take. I will put the resolution to a debate and vote with a target launch of 48 hours. You have until then to stop this......murdering beast.

Scene: Chief Bogo stands still as others begin to leave. He then reacts to his cell phone alarm going off and looks down at his phone....

Chief Bogo: Dear.......gawd.......

Scene Shift

Scene Location: Avalanche Ave, Tundra Town Home of the murdered grizzly Bears

Scene: Judy and Nick are looking over the bedroom where Judy finds a business notebook and scans through it...

Judy: Nick?

Nick: Found something Carrots?

Judy: Bugsy Moran.

Nick: Payment for delivery services....fifty grand. So now we have three tied to Mister Big and one tied to Bugsy.

Judy: What do you think Nick? Honestly?

Scene: Judy gets a text alert and she pulls her cell phone while Nick is talking.

Nick: Doesn't prove anything. If this was an honest turf war between two rival gangsters, it would be more intense than this. Mister Big's honest about gangster movies Fluff...they do show the realistic side of gang warfare. There's been no significant hits yet to make a real case that these two are going head to head with each other....

Scene: Nick turns to look at Judy and she looks both upset and horrified.

Nick: Carrots? Carrots....your nose is twitching and you look sick. What's up?

Scene: Judy looks up.

Judy: We have to go to Mister Big's home right now.

Scene: Judy is hurrying and half stumbling from being shocked as she walks towards the cruiser.

Nick: Carrots? Carrots talk to me? You're really scaring me Carrots, come on."

Scene: Judy starts the car and peals out even before Nick can get belted in....

Nick: Damn it Carrots! Talk to me?!

Scene: Judy looks at Nick with tears in her eyes....

Judy: Angelica......and her children.......they're dead.

Scene: Nick's face shows shock.

Scene: The cruiser heads for Mister Big's home.
