175 EXT. CEMETERY - DUSK (SAME DAY) 175

RAIN pours down. Martin Riggs stands over a lone grave.
There are dark hollows under his eyes. The wind tugs at
his hair. The tombstone reads:

VICTORIA LYNN RIGGS

BORN: 1953
DIED: 1984

He reaches beneath his overcoat and removes a bright
green Christmas wreath, which he places atop the grave.
Kisses his fingertips. Presses them to the moist earth.

RIGGS
Merry Christmas.
(beat)
I love you.

The rains starts to fall. Riggs is oblivious.

176 EXT. MURTAUGH HOME - NIGHT 176

Carpenters are at work, patching and repairing. The
Christmas lights still shine defiantly. A car pulls up.

CUT TO:

177 FRONT DOOR 177

As a hand knocks softly: The door opens -- and there
stands young Rianne. Adorable. She looks up at the
visitor... It is Martin Riggs.

RIANNE
Hi.

RIGGS
Hi.

He hands something to her. She takes it. The bottle of
pills. It has a red ribbon tied around it.

RIGGS
Give that to your dad. It's a
present. Tell him I won't be
needing them anymore.

Rianne nods.

RIANNE
Okay. You wanna come in? We're
building.

Riggs thinks it over. Shakes his head:

RIGGS
No, that's okay.
(beat)
You have a Merry Christmas,
Missy.

RIANNE
Okay.

Riggs turns to go. Rianne stops him:

RIANNE
They say you're the best.

Beat. He stops. Turns and looks at her.

RIANNE
Are you?

RIGGS
(big smile; wild wink)
No one can touch me.

Rianne blushes.

Riggs begins to walk away, into the rain...

Until Roger Murtaugh appears from inside the boat on the
trailer hitch.

He stands on deck and looks down at Riggs.

Riggs stops. They stand there in the rain for a moment.
Then Murtaugh looks him square in the eye and says:

MURTAUGH
Sucker, if you think I'm gonna cat
the world's lousiest Christmas
turkey all by my lonesome, you're
nuts.

Riggs nods. A moment passes. Then:

RIGGS
I think your daughter kinda likes
me.

MURTAUGH
You touch her, I'll kill you.

RIGGS
You'll try.

He smiles.

Murtaugh smiles.

The rain falls, as they enter the house together, and
we

FADE OUT.

Merry Christmas
God Bless
No Doubt
