SOLDIER #2
You're a nice piece of meat, aren't you?
(he changes his voice to a 'woman's voice' - he is moving her lips with his dirty fingers)
Yes I want you so badly, take me you strong soldier, take me here, right now!
(laughs)
He notices the bruises on Joanna's face...
SOLDIER #2 (CONT'D)
(to Soldier #1)
Look at that! Our lovely priest here... can you see? Look at all the kisses he's given her!
He throws her onto a chair, he rushes to the door, opens it and comes back with Steven after a second - he throws him onto the floor so that Steven is kneeling in front of them.
SOLDIER #2 (CONT'D)
(to Joanna)
Common! Hit this wonderful husband of yours!
Joanna doesn't understand. Soldier #2 hits him in the face.
SOLDIER #2 (CONT'D)
Like that! Common!
He grabs her hand, drags it to Stevens face and shows her how to do it - she refuses. Soldier #2 hits Steven again.
SOLDIER #2 (CONT'D)
Common bitch!
He hits Steven again and grabs her hand, but she still doesn't want to...
SOLDIER #1
(calm)
Do it. Hit him.
Joanna is looking at him, she's confused. Just as Soldier #2 is going to hit him again:
JOANNA
Stop... stop.
BEAT/
She hits Steven gently... Soldier #2 smiles.
SOLDIER #1
Again. Do it.
Joanna hits him again and a second time.
SOLDIER #2
Isn't that a lovely game... just like war - you just change sides now and again.
Joanna looses herself and starts hitting Steven furiously over his whole body and face...
SOLDIER #2 (CONT'D)
(astonished)
She's a wild one!
She stops... she's standing in front of him... exhausted.
