INT. KURTZ HEADQUARTERS - DAY Willard, hands tied behind his back, is guided down a long corridor, followed by two Montagnards, both armed. WILLARD (V.O.) It smelled like slow death in there. Malaria and nightmares. This was the end of the river, all right. They turn into the main room. The natives indicate for Willard to kneel down on the floor. The CAMERA MOVES, REVEALING KURTZ lying in shadow on a bed. We will SEE him only in darkness and shadow throughout the scene. KURTZ Where you from, Willard? WILLARD I'm from Ohio, sir. KURTZ Were you born there? WILLARD Yes, sire. KURTZ Whereabouts? WILLARD Toledo, sir. KURTZ How far are you from the river? WILLARD The Ohio River, sir? About two hundred miles. KURTZ I went down that river once when I was a kid. There's a place in the river, I can't remember...must have been a gardenia plantation, or a flower plantation at one time. It's all wild and overgrown now. But for about five miles, you'd think that heaven just fell on the earth, in the form of gardenias. Kurtz reaches down and picks up a bowl full of water. He splashes water on his face and head. KURTZ Have you ever considered, any real freedoms? Freedoms from the opinions of others. Even the opinions of yourself. Did they say why, Willard? Why they wanted to terminate my command? WILLARD I was sent on a classified mission, sir. KURTZ Its no longer classified, is it. What did they tell you? WILLARD They told me, that you had gone...totally insane. And that your methods were unsound. KURTZ Are my methods unsound? WILLARD I don't see any method at all, sir. KURTZ I expected someone like you. What did you expect? Are you an assassin? WILLARD I'm a soldier. We finally SEE KURTZ'S FACE. KURTZ You're neither. You're an errand boy, sent by grocery clerks, to collect a bill.
