Int: Dark room: Night
So far we’re in the sheriffs office in a Unnamed town. The town has a moderate crime rate. The room is dark but your eyes adjust tot he darkness with help from the lights outside.
A man walks into a Dark Room and lights an oil lamp. As the room slowly gets lighter he looks around and notices another man sitting on a chair near the window. This man is holding a shotgun and is looking out the window towards the saloon opposite, his expression is serious. He is the sheriff.
The man that walked in
What’s the matter Joe?
Joe

The man that Walked in

ExT: Shot of the Saloon from window POV: Night
Joe
It aint
Int: Saloon from the inside, shot facing the bar: night
The Bar is mostly full of drunks, some are playing poker while others chat in dark corners. All of them are local townsfolk both men and women.
McGreason sits alone at the bar, while drunks carry on with their own activities ignoring this stranger.
McGreason is slowly swirling his drink, which has been poured into a woman's drinking glass.
The sweaty bartender is nervously looks around the room, maybe after all his years behind a bar he can sense trouble.
McGreason gives a quick glance around the room and clicks his knuckles on the bar. He stops to look at a group of angry looking drunks talking in the corner of the room ,but is disappointed when they start laughing at some kind of joke. Turning back to his drink, obviously annoyed at this towns so called reputation, he goes to drink, when a stupid drunk slumps next to him and exclaims.
Stupid drunk
What kind of sissy assed fool drinks fr-
Before he can finish McGreason has already smashed the glass in the mans face. The drunk flails backwards into a table screaming, clawing his face. McGreason kicks the man to the ground and goes in to step on the mans fingers. When he notices how the mans face is swelling unnaturally and turning blue.
The whole place is dead still but McGreason notices two sudden movements. Firstly someone heading towards to exit fast and the barman pouring the a bottle away fast. Pulling out his revolvers quicker than lightning he shots the barman and the person running away (in the leg). After this point, everyone in the room rushes out the back way not wanting to be the ones shot next. While McGreason walks towards the injured kid by the door, who cant be older than 19 or 21.
He picks the kid up by the face and asks
McGreason
What son of a bitch sent you to poison me
He punches the kid hard in the chest and picks him back up by the collar. The kid coughing like mad suddenly stops to say something.
EXT: night: outside the saloon
Hold the shot for a few seconds with silence.
The saloon doors burst open and a loud shot is fired towards the doors. A large figure throws a body aside. Someone else swears into the night.
McGreason slowly walks towards to a nearby tied up horse, which doesn’t seem to be bothered by the loud noises.

Medium Close up of his hands.
Joe fumbles to re load his gun
EXT: night: outside the saloon
McGreason mounts the horse
Int: night: inside the sheriffs office
medium shot of joe.
The sheriff finally re loads and lifts the gun to take another shot, but the target is gone, leaving a dead man and the sound of a horse riding away.
Joe sighs being annoyed (it his horse) and relieved (he’s still alive). He nearly states to his deputy how they got off lucky, when there’s an explosion from inside the bar.
ext: night: outside the sheriffs office and saloon
aerial shot
And as the saloon is a raging fireball. You see two men run out of a building opposite the saloon, and a man on horseback heading out of town.
