Scene 2

I've found Orlando Bloom in the river...

(Night. Two constables are running to the sound of a bell. Ichabod Crane is ringing the bell and poking at something in the lake with a stick.)

1st Constable: Is that Ichabod Crane? (snickers) Funny name.

Ichabod Crane: Yeah, it's me.

2nd Constable: Well stop ringing that bloody bell then. We can hear you.

Ichabod Crane: Oh. Right. OK then. (stops ringing bell)

1st Constable: What did you want, anyway?

Ichabod Crane: I've found a body in the river. I think. (Pokes a bit more). Yep. It was definitely once a man.

2nd Constable: What does it look like?

Ichabod Crane: A bit like Orlando Bloom. Maybe someone's finally pushed that annoying git in.

(Switch to morgue. A man wheels the body in. Ichabod Crane runs after it. The morgue owner looks at the body.)

Morgue Owner: (looking up from book) Hey, it's Orlando Bloom. Dead.

Ichabod Crane: Yeah, that's why it's here.

Man: Can I burn it?

Morgue Owner: (reading book) Sure, why not.

(Man wheels body away happily.)

Ichabod Crane: Wait, I need to see what killed him.

Morgue Owner: You found him in the river, right?

Ichabod Crane: Yep.

Morgue Owner: Then he drowned.

Ichabod Crane: (scratches head) Figures.

(Two men come in, dragging a criminal behind them)

Morgue Owner: Not another one.

1st Man: He was caught nicking knickers.

2nd Man: Shocking, huh?

Morgue Owner: No, not really. Just a common washing-line trick.

Criminal: They were still on the lady. (laughs. Men laugh too but shut up after a look from the morgue owner).

Morgue Owner: Chuck him in.

(They kick open a trapdoor and throw him in the river)

Ichabod Crane: Hah!

Morgue Owner: (looking up) What? Are you still here?

Ichabod Crane: I know how that man died.

Morgue Owner: (not too sure what Ichabod's talking about) How?

Ichabod Crane: He drowned.

(Morgue Owner looks confused as Ichabod Crane saunters off)
