101.


                       There is indeed love between him and the girl. The policeman
                       remembers what he saw the other day: two people holding each  other
                       tightly and walking toward the sunset, a loving couple.  However, the
                       policeman has some doubts as to the Amerasian's  claims that he will

                       return from America. He lowers his voice  and speaks menacingly.

                                                   POLICEMAN B
                                     Do you swear you will come back for
                                     her? Who can guarantee that?



                                                   THE AMERASIAN
                                     No one can guarantee that for me.
                                     But I swear I will return unless I
                                     die. I don't know if anyone
                                     believes me. But I know she
                                     believes me and will wait for me.
                                     We promised each other already.



                                                   POLICEMAN B
                                     So, you say you won't betray her.
                                     But what happens if you die before
                                     that? Won't she be on the losing
                                     end when that happens even if she
                                     loves you very much?


                                                   THE AMERASIAN
                                     I will not die. I will come back to
                                     her. I will come back to marry her.


                       The Amerasian speaks with deep conviction and with all his  heart. The
                       policeman is moved to hear him speak and sits still without saying
                       anything.


                       60     EXT. THE TEA HILL - MORNING


                       Suddenly THE AMERASIAN pushes POLICEMAN B's hand away hard
                       so  that the gun drops to the ground. B lunges forward trying to catch
                       the gun but the Amerasian can grab it first being  closer to it.
