JUMP CUTS as Reacher grabs a t-shirt, jeans, boxers, etc. Roscoe leans against a CLOTHES RACK, watches the process. ROSCOE
So I made another request for the victim’s fingerprints. We ID him, that’s the key to this thing. REACHER Stands to reason. Good luck with it. ROSCOE So since you weren’t here to kill anyone, what really brought you to Margrave? Can’t be some blues singer. REACHER I don’t lie to people who get me outta jail. I’m here ‘cause of Blind Blake, but it’s really on account of Chauncey. (digs through rack) They never have any Triple X’s. ROSCOE Who’s Chauncey? REACHER (as he keeps searching...) Week ago, I went to Chauncey’s Bar & Grill in Tampa. Guy there was playing Police Dog Blues by Blind Blake. Remembered a conversation I had with my brother Joe a while back; he knows I love Blues and he’d read some article about Blake, said his last show was in Margrave, and that’s where he died. So I left Chauncey’s, got on a bus. ROSCOE So you just go wherever you want, whenever you want. REACHER (playful) Everyone’s always jealous.
Said while Reacher ducks behind a CIRCULAR CLOTHING RACK that covers him from the waist down and starts getting changed. He removes his shirt. He’s ripped, and Roscoe surely notices.
