1  INT. CARL'S BASEMENT - EVENING
 2  ==============================
 3  
 4  Vera and Carl are as before: Carl sitting tied to a metal stool, Vera
 5  sitting on a chair in front of him.
 6  
 7  > VERA
 8  >> Okay, let's say I believe you. Either you're truthsome, or a really
 9  >> good liar. If it wasn't you, who was it?
10  
11  Vera moves behind Carl and takes out her Leatherman, and cuts Carl's
12  bindings. Carl gets up and stretches, then sits back down, clearly more
13  relaxed.
14  
15  > CARL
16  >> They used your account, and that gives us a clue. Only five people
17  >> have access to that box at all, and two of them are in Europe.
18  
19  > VERA
20  >> Are you saying Alan did it? That's crazy.
21  
22  > CARL
23  >> It's logical.
24  
25  > VERA
26  >> But why would he do it? He's the most patriotic man I know. There's
27  >> no way he'd set up a terrorist attack.
28  
29  > CARL
30  >> I don't know why, but there's no alternative. When you have
31  >> eliminated the impossible, whatever remains, however improbable, must
32  >> be the truth.
33  
34  > VERA
35  >> There's no point in accusing him without proof.
36  
37  > CARL
38  >> Yes, that's correct. It would be wrong to do so.
39  
40  Vera gives Carl with a weird, disbelieving look, then shakes her head.
41  
42  > VERA
43  >> We're going to have to figure out exactly what happened. We need the
44  >> malicious code that was injected into the boxes and the only place to
45  >> get that is at the office.
46  
47  > CARL
48  >> What do you mean?
49  
50  > VERA
51  >> We're going to have to break in and steal it.
52  
53  > CARL
54  >> But... that's against the rules.
55  
56  > VERA
57  >> Some day, you're going to tell me how you became such a stickler for
58  >> following every rule, but today, you're going to break a few.
