We see Jack (Forest Whitaker) and Shane (Leonardo Dicaprio) standing in the break room of the police station, which has a fridge, microwave, coffee machine, and a table. Jack stands, leaning against the counter near the fridge.
SHANE
Jack...what happen between you and T-Mac?
Jack sighs, walks to the other side of the room, and gets a cup of coffee.
JACK
My old partner, for almost ten years, was named Vince. He’d be about forty now if he hadn’t died.
Jack walks over to the table. He sits directly across the table from Shane.
JACK
He put Thomas, the drug dealer otherwise known as T-Mac, in jail about six years ago. After he got out, he went after Vince. He had one of his friends hit him with a speeding car while he was walking to work. Vince wouldn’t drive if he didn’t have to, you see.
Jack pauses again and looks up at Shane, who sits with his mouth open and a look of disgust in his eyes.
JACK (interrupting)
You might be wondering…wondering why I didn’t get revenge. Why I didn’t go out and kill Thomas, the man who I knew killed my partner, but was still allowed to walk the streets. It was because the only way I could honor Vince, my brother, was by sticking to my oath as a police officer to uphold the law. Sure, I could have gone after Thomas, and killed him. It would have made me feel better in the short term. But I knew that before long, that would come back to haunt my every dream. I know that because even the men I’ve killed in the line of duty still come back to haunt me.
Cut to: Shane walks into a nightclub and sits at the bar next to Jessica (Lizzy Caplan).
JESSICA
So you're a cop, huh?
Cut to: Shane and Jessica in the kitchen of Shane's house. Jessica grabs Shane and the two begin making out. They continue while walking toward the bedroom and begin taking off their clothes. Jessica lays down on the bed under the blankets and Shane follows, smiling.
Cut to: Shane walking into the room where Jessica is still laying on the bed. She quickly gets up and looks at him with a puzzled face.
JESSICA
You said you wouldn't be back for another hour.
SHANE
That was before Jack disappeared.
JESSICA
What?
SHANE
He's gone. Somebody broke into his house and he ain't there anymore.
JESSICA
What are you going to do?
SHANE
I'm gonna find him. I'm gonna find him and kill anybody who tries to stop me.
Jessica looks at him with an uneasy look on her face.
