The name Will was taken from Paul Walker's middle name!
After defeating Deckard (Ian) Shaw and crew, Dominic Toretto and team arrive in Tokyo, Japan. And after a drift-filled race against DK Sean Boswell, Toretto and crew encounter a familiar face which helps set up the events of Fast & Furious 8 - along with a former foe...
THIS SCENE IMMEDIATELY FOLLOWS THE RACE BETWEEN DOMINIC TORETTO AND SEAN BOSWELL, TOWARDS THE END OF FAST AND FURIOUS 7
PARKING GARAGE. TOKYO. NIGHTTIME.
The crowd continues to go WILD for both the racers while we watch a montage of random people cheering, pretty ladies dancing and Dom and Sean getting much praise from the attendees..
We cut to some shots of the crew, who are spread out amongst the crowd of people. Tej, Roman and Leon are sitting on their two cars. Twinkie, Neela, Earl and Reiko are motioning towards Sean as they cheer him on. And then we cut to a close-up shot of Letty, as Dom turns and spots her..
She smiles big as they approach eachother. He picks Letty up, her legs around his waist as they kiss..
DOM: My trophy, win OR lose!
Toretto soon puts her down, then turns to Sean as he puts his arm around her shoulders.
DOM: Sean (quickly turns) I want you to meet my girl. Letty, this is a good friend of Han's, Sean Boswell.
Sean and Letty shake hands
SEAN: Nice to meet you
LETTY: You as well. That was some impressive shit you pulled off back there, kid. Where'd you learn to drift like that?
Dom and Sean glimpse at eachother as they remember Han..
SEAN: An old friend (smiles)
We cut over to Rome, Tej and Leon who aren't far off..
TEJ: (to Rome) What's wrong with you, you good?
ROME: (head down) Yeah.. just missin' my boy, O'Conner. Can't blame 'em though, I guess we all gotta get out of this lifestyle eventually.
LEON: You guys heard from him?
Tej shakes his head NO
ROME: Nah. And I don't think we will.
TEJ: We'll see 'em again. (Rome looks up) Besides, we're practically Jack's uncles, right?!
Roman smiles as they fist-bump eachother
Back to Dom and the others, as they're finishing up a conversation..
Twinkie and the others have made their way to Sean's location, and begin conversing with him..
Dom kisses the top of Letty's head, takes a swig of his beer, then he glances around the area- but does a double-take as he spots a familiar face in the distance (to his left)..
Toretto slowly begins to smile, then we hear Roman yell..
ROMAN: ARE YOU SERIOUS RIGHT NOW?! 'EY DOM, LOOK WHO IT IS!
The figure in the distance, who resembles Brian O'Conner.. looks around in confusion as the incoming parties lock eyes with him.
DOM: (to Sean and crew) Sean, come here. There's a good friend I want you to meet..
The figure, who's holding a beer by his side, stands by a Blue Nissan Skyline car.
Tej slowly comes to a stop as he begins to question if the figure is who they think it is..
TEJ: (quietly) Bri'(?)
DOM: Sean, guys.. this is- (he pauses as he realizes it's NOT Brian)
TEJ: A stranger..?!
The figure remains still and confused. He places his beer on the hood of his car as he speaks to his friends..
Figure: Hey, I'll catch up with you guys later. (He then proceeds to place his hands in his pockets)
DOM: (arm around Letty's shoulders) Sorry 'bout that, kid- thought you were someone else.
They all glance at eachother with blank expressions and confusion..
ROMAN: Damn- you had my heart racin' faster than them cars, breh!
They share a laugh
DOM: What's your name, kid?
FIGURE: O'Conner.
Dom and Rome look at eachother..
LEON: It is a small world, Dom..
DOM: O'Conner?!
TEJ: You wouldn't happen to know a.. BRIAN, would you?
FIGURE: Yeah, he's my brother..
As Dom and crew share a smile, Sean and the others shake their heads at eachother as they have no clue what's going on..
DOM: So- (interrupted as two persons approach from the side)
LEO: 'Ey, who invited the cop, ey?! (referring to O'Conner)
SANTOS: I tol' you, bro- tha's not him!
The guys shake hands with Dom, Rome & Tej as Dom continues..
DOM: Brian never mentioned having a brother- you got a first name, kid?
FIGURE: (comes in to shake Dom's hand) Name's Will
Twinkie: (to Sean and crew) Talk about a family reunion!
ROMAN: (to Will) So, do you like.. live here or what?
WILL: (glance down and picks up his beer) Nah, just in town to pay my respects to an old friend.
TEJ: Ah, don't tell me..
ROMAN: YOU KNEW HAN TOO?!
WILL: (nods) Yeah. Lost touch with him a few years back but a friend hit me up after what happened. Can't believe it.
Dom raises his beer..
DOM: To Han (the others raise their drinks then take a swig)
WILL: So.. how do you guys know my brother?
DOM: He was our brother, too. (smiles and nods at Will)
We cut to a later shot, with the entire crew sitting around while having a BBQ in a nearby abandoned facility.
(mid conversation)
WILL: Han was just.. the coolest. But he always had some side business going on that was just too risky for me so eventually we ended up parting ways- but I always respected him.
SEAN: Did ya'll meet out here?
WILL: Nah, we met years back in.. (thinking) gosh, I think it was in LA- but I'm not sure.. he was always going from one place to another. Always on the move!
LETTY: What about you and Brian- did you guys lose touch or what?
WILL: Yeah.. but it was all my fault. Guess I shouldn't be surprised he never mentioned me..
TEJ: Why's that?
WILL: Well.. I'm think I'm kinda the reason he became a cop. Growing up, I was always getting into trouble- but our mom made sure he never found out about it.
DOM: (holding Letty) Ever do any time?
WILL: (shakes head) Couple of overnighters, nothing too serious. But about 10 years ago, I got busted after helping some guys boost some cars- and our mom had to bail me out, which cleaned her out for good. She had no choice but to let Brian know what was going on, and she ended up ditching us soon after.
ROMAN: Damn.
WILL: He never forgave me for that, and I don't blame him. We haven't spoken since. Always pictured him out there on the streets, racin' to stop the bad guys.
TEJ: So how you livin' these days?
WILL: Just hustlin' to make a living- but it's all legit. Odd jobs, racing. Always going from place to place.
SEAN: I hear that.
Dom reveals a photo from his wallet and hands it to Will
DOM: (we see picture) That's Brian with Mia and their son, Jack. Taken a few months back.
Will gets teary eyed and smiles
WILL: Good for him. He deserves it.
We notice Roman and Tej off to the side having a brief laugh..
WILL: What's so funny?
ROMAN: (stands up, holding beer) Look man, I don't want 'chu to think nothin's off- but you got a nice smile, bruh! (smiles big)
They all share a laugh
In the near distance, Leo and Santos are conversing- and getting louder..
SANTOS: See bro, I tol' you tha's not him!
LEO: There you go with that negativity again!
TWINKIE: (raises voice, makes his way to their location) 'Ey, amigos- you guys wanna place a bet or what?!
Earl & Reiko rush to Twinkie's side, Earl (from behind) places his hands on Twinkie's shoulders..
EARL: Let's save the betting for later..
REIKO: Yeah, we gotta get back for the last race of the night! so you guys can bet on who's who- and who's gonna win the race!
SANTOS: Tha' sounds good to me.
LEO: Le's do it.
TWINKIE: (turns to Sean) 'Ey Sean- we'll see you guys there!
They exit the building and proceed back to the parking garage
The others slowly get up and prepare to depart as well..
DOM: (holding Letty) Well, O'Conner.. it's been nice getting to know you. Hope you and Brian can work things out someday..
Will nods (thanks)
NEELA: (in Sean's arms) Remember, you've always got a family here.
WILL: Thanks. I appreciate it.
LEON: Hey O'Conner.. you're comin' to the last race with us, right?!
Dom and Will lock eyes for a moment..
WILL: Absolutely! Besides, something tells me it wasn't just coincidence that brought us all together..
LETTY: Alright, everyone.. let's roll!
They exit the building as Dom and Will trail behind..
WILL: So.. how do YOU know Han and Brian?
(we begin to fade to black)
DOM: (takes swig of beer) It's a LONG story, O'Conner!
BLACK SCREEN AS SILENCE SURFACES
Two racing cars burst onto the screen as we catch the end of the last race of the night..
Parties and crowds all around..
PARKING GARAGE. LATE NIGHT.
We catch up with the crew who are chilling two levels down from the top (finish line)
Roman and Tej take notice of Will's car..
ROMAN: Is this YOU?!
WILL: Yup, got alot invested in her. She's my pride and joy!
TEJ: We gotta get you racin,' bruh- make some money off- (locks eyes with Will) I mean.. FOR you!
Twinkie, Leo and Santos enter the scene..
TWINKIE: NOW we're talkin'(!) (fist-bumps Will and Tej)
LEO: (he and Santos are circling car slowly) Look a' dis toy, bro- where you get this.. from a Cracker Jack box?
ROMAN: 'Ey, I don't see YOU guys with any pimped out rides!
SANTOS: (still, to Leo) Still FEO, bro.
They argue back and forth for a bit..
TEJ: (shakes and lowers head) Ah, here we go again.
WILL: (to Leo and Santos) You two wanna take her for a spin?
They glance at eachother..
LEO: (opens passenger door) Thought 'chu'd NEVER ask, bro!
SANTOS: (circles around to driver's side door) Now we're talking!
ROMAN: (quietly to Tej) Yeah, tha's ALL they do!
Tej chuckles
SANTOS: You say somethin,' bro?!
ROMAN: (laughing) Nah, we coo' HOMBRE!
Will notions to Santos to get in the back..
WILL: Sorry man.. but no one's takin' MY lady for a ride but ME!
TEJ: Good idea..
They're about to take off after Will starts the engine- but then.. several black race cars fastly approach from the right (up the ramp from next level down) and speed past them to the rest of the crew's location..
ROME: Wha's this?
TEJ: I thought that was the last race..?!
Meanwhile.. Dom and the others are conversing, spread out a bit but pay little attention to the incoming cars.. which park close by..
WILL: (still in car with Leo and Santos) I wonder what that's all about..
LEO: I don' know, bro- but something tells me tha's YAKUZA rollin' in..
Will glances at the guys.. then they proceed to open their doors and exit the vehicle as we cut back to the rest of the crew..
Twinkie begins to rise as he spots a familiar figure emerging from one of the black cars, which have come to a stop.. several others approach from the cars, and follow the figure..
TWINKIE: (quietly to Sean, who's holding Neela) Yo' Sean, yo' Sean- look who it is..!
Sean and Neela rise as they lock eyes with the foe..
Dom, Letty and the others are sitting with their backs to the black cars but Dom slowly gets up once reading Sean and Twinkie's reactions..
TWINKIE: Thought 'chu left town, Takashi-son?!
TAKASHI: (approaches their location) Stay out of this.. this is between ME- and the Gaijin here (locks eyes with Sean)
NEELA: (yells) TAKASHI! (leaves Sean's side and walks to Dom's location) You shouldn't be here.. your Uncle is- (interrupted)
TAKASHI: No.. longer.. a problem for me.
Will and the guys make their way around the crew's location but are careful only to observe for the time being..
Will looks to Leon but he responds by shrugging his shoulder as he has no clue what's going on..
As Sean approaches Takashi, Twinkie stands by Dom's side..
TWINKIE: (whispers) Tha's the dude that chased HAN..!
Dom raises an eyebrow as he looks back over to Takashi..
SEAN: (in front of him) Why don't you do everyone here a favor- and get lost. We ain't lookin' for trouble.
TAKASHI: You think winning ONE race makes YOU the winner here? you're DEAD WRONG, Gaijin..
DOM: (crosses arms) (to Takashi) Why don't you and your crew sit down, relax.. and have a beer with us? (shrugs shoulder) We're cool if you're cool..
Sean glances over with a confused response..
Takashi walks to Dom's location, and closes in with his stare-down stance..
TAKASHI: You don't know me.. I don't know you. For you.. that's a GOOD THING, got it?
DOM: (smiles) Is that so?
Roman and Tej look to Sean, who notions that they should hold tight for now..
TAKASHI: You and your crew, can leave. Otherwise, the same thing that happens to him.. (referring to Sean) will happen to you.
DOM: (glances at Sean) Well, I guess you leave me with no choice..
Dom slowly turns away, and Takashi smiles with confidence as he looks over to Sean..
SUDDENLY.. Dom quickly turns and delivers a BRUTAL right cross to Takashi's face..
He then proceeds to force him to the ground, and delivers a couple more punches to his face.. Takashi's gang rushes in and picks him up as he shamefully wipes the blood off his face..
DOM: (points) THAT- was for what happened to HAN! (referring to chase aftermath- not accident itself)
TAKASHI: (wipes blood from mouth as he pushes his guys back in shame) You should've walked away, Gaijin..
DOM: And you should've left town.. drifter.
TWINKIE: (quietly to Sean) 'Ey, should we mention that Takashi-son is YAKUZA to your boy?!
SEAN: (shakes head) I don't think it'd make a difference..
Takashi signals to his gang to reveal their weapons- consisting of several assault rifles and some handguns.. they hold their guns and wait for his order..
TAKASHI: (henchmen hands him a handgun) So.. you got it? or you want HIS fate too? (nods to Sean)
Dominic Toretto crosses his arms while smiling with arrogance as Roman, Tej, Leon, Leo, Santos, Sean, Twinkie & Letty rise and stand behind and aside his location..
Meanwhile, Earl and Reiko signal to Neela that they should leave.. and quietly sneak over to their car..
WILL: (to Earl and the others) You guys get outta here, we got this.
REIKO: You want us to call the cops?!
Will glances over as we cut to a wide shot of Dom & the others..
WILL: (smiles) We got this, GO!
Back to the standoff..
TAKASHI: (takes notice of Dom's half-smile) Something funny about all this, Gaijin?!
DOM: (looks around and over to his crew) Nah, just hopin' you brought a big crew with you.
Takashi and his gang cock their guns..
Dom and Will are now side by side as Toretto glances over at him..
DOM: Just like old times.
