INT. “THE RAVEN” - NIGHT
Marion stands before the fire that is shrinking in the fireplace. She jabs at it abstractedly with a poker, thinking. Suddenly tears well up in her eyes. She lets the poker slip from her hand, wipes away the tears. She walks across the room to the end of the bar, still cluttered with bottles and glasses, and stops at the pile of American money Indy has left. She takes the chain from around her neck and lets the medallion slide off it into her hand. She places it on the bar next to the pile of money, thinking. Then, having reached some decision, she picks up the pile of bills, walks up the back of the bar and pulls a small wooden box from under the bar. She flips open the top, puts the cash inside and closes the top. She leaves the box on the bar and starts back toward the medallion. The front door of the saloon bursts open and Four Bad Men come in. Marion, halfway between the valuable possessions and not wishing to draw attention to either, stops where she is.
The Four Bad Men who advance on her are:
1) the obvious leader, a short, vile, sadistic German in spectacles by the name of BELZIG.
2) a trenchcoated SECOND NAZI.
3) a ratty-looking NEPALESSE and
4) a mean MONGOLIAN. The second NAZI and the MONGOLIAN both carry submachine gungs.
BELZIG Good evening, Fraulein.
MARION The bar’s closed.
BELZIG We are not thirsty.
The Mongolian and the Nepalese poke around, checking to make sure there’s no one else there. Down at the end of the bar, the medallion lies partially hidden by surrounding glasses and bottles. The Second Nazi stops very near it, but turns his back to it to face Belzig and Marion.
MARION What do you want?
