The Giant Killer Scritp Page Four review

Page 4 - Five Panels

(Ch1 Pg4 Panel One)

(Medium shot - Gerarit smiles at the group, clearly enjoying their attention. The three drunken men urge him on with loud voices.)

OFF-PANEL VOICE (TALIESIN): You find this amusing, Gerarit?

OFF-PANEL VOICE (DIANDAN): Oh! Get on with it, man!

OFF-PANEL VOICE (HOWEL): Yes! Get on with it!!

(Ch1 Pg4 Panel Two)

(Close-up - Gerarit turns his gaze toward the prince and bodyguard, a sly grin on his face. The men's voices echo off-panel.)

OFF-PANEL VOICE (TALIESIN): Why are you looking at them, Gerarit? You think they'll help you?

OFF-PANEL VOICE (HOWEL): Hey! You made the bet with us, you can't back out now!

(Ch1 Pg4 Panel Three)

(Medium shot - Gerarit reaches across the table and grabs a jar of jam. The prince and his guard look on in surprise and confusion.)

OFF-PANEL VOICE (TALIESIN): What is he doing with that?

OFF-PANEL VOICE (DIANDAN): Aye! What's he doing with the jam?

OFF-PANEL VOICE (HOWEL): How should I know?!

(Ch1 Pg4 Panel Four)

(Close-up - Gerarit dips a spoon into the jam, holding it up with an exaggerated flourish. The others watch, growing more curious.)

OFF-PANEL VOICE (TALIESIN): Just how is he going to snuff seven flies with jam?

OFF-PANEL VOICE (DIANDAN): Oh, be quiet, Yah, and watch!

OFF-PANEL VOICE (HOWEL): That I am!!

(Ch1 Pg4 Panel Five)

(Wide shot - Gerarit places a small dab of jam on the table, a dramatic pause hanging in the air. The men react with a mix of disbelief and amusement.)

OFF-PANEL VOICE (TALIESIN): Oi! That's a waste of good jam!

OFF-PANEL VOICE (HOWEL): Oh, be silent, will ya?!
