I reread the draft script and am now certain that it is Karen Wong in
the TV Spot. In the script, the Bride says this to Karen: "I'm the
deadliest woman in the world, but right now I'm scared shitless for
my baby." The first part of this line is also heard in the TV Spot.

Here's the full story. Lisa and Karen Wong are two Korean women in
the LA underworld. Quentin's script mostly focuses on Karen of the
Wong Sisters. We are told the story through a flashback in the last
chapter of Kill Bill where the Bride has a conversation with Bill.
Apparently, Bill ordered the Bride to LA to assassinate Lisa Wong
four years ago. However she was spotted and once Lisa got wind of
the coming Bride, she sent her own sister, Karen, to deal with the
tall blonde.



There's a knock on the hotel room door.

The Bride stops dancing and goes to the door's
peephole.

PEEPHOLE POV: A pretty KOREAN WOMAN in the blazer and
skirt
outfit of a hotel manager. She's holding a basket of
flowers.

The Bride says through the door;



THE BRIDE
Hello, can I help you?



HOTEL WOMAN
Hello, I'm Karen Kim, I'm the
hospitality manager of the hotel. I
have a welcome gift from the
management.

Seeing it through the peephole.



THE BRIDE
Oh, it's beautiful. But I'm kinda
busy at this second, could you
possibly come back later?

As she talks, she accidentally drops the blue strip,
she
bends down to pick it up...

WHEN...

A SHOTGUN BLAST BLOWS A HOLE in the door, right where
the
bent over woman was previously standing.

Karen kicks open the door, Pump Action Shotgun in hand.

The Bride's on her back, on the floor below her.

Karen aims the shotgun down at her.

With her foot, The Bride kicks the front door.

It SLAMS BACK HITTING Karen in the face.

The Bride scrambles to her feet, running for cover.

Karen pushes the door aside, steps into the room, and
FIRES
the shotgun The Bride's way.

The Bride DIVES out of the way.

The BLAST DESTROYS the side of the room it HITS.

The Bride comes up from the floor with her SOG in her
hand,
and THROWS IT across the room at Karen...

Karen BLOCKS the thrown knife with her shotgun. The
blade
sticking in the weapon's wooden stock. She removes the
knife,
and drops it to the floor.

The Bride is a sitting duck. There's nothing she can do
except wait to get shot.



KAREN
So you came here to kill Lisa Wong,
huh? Well that's my sister, bitch.
I'm Karen Wong, and I've come here
to kill you.

She raises the shotgun, and takes aim at The Bride...



THE BRIDE
Wait a second!

Karen stops.



THE BRIDE
Yes, I'm an assassin. Yes I did
come here to kill your sister. But
I'm not gonna do that now.



KAREN
Oh, I know you're not --



THE BRIDE
- listen to me! I just found out,
right now - not two minutes before
you blew a hole in the door, I'm
pregnant.

Karen looks at her, "what?".



THE BRIDE
On that table is the home pregnancy
kit. On the floor by the door is
the strip that says I'm pregnant.
I'm telling you the truth, I don't
want to and I won't kill your
sister. I just want to go home.



KAREN
What is this, bullshit story number
twelve in the female assassin's
handbook?



THE BRIDE
Any other time you'd be a hundred
percent right. But this time you're
a hundred percent wrong. I'm the
deadliest woman in the world, but
right now I'm scared shitless for
my baby. Please, you hafta believe
me. Look at the strip, it's on the
floor.

Karen looks over to the door, and sees the tiny strip
on the
floor.



KAREN
Sit down on that bed and put your
hands behind your head.

The Bride complies. Karen bends down and picks the
strip off
the floor. Then takes the package it came in and reads
the
directions on the box.



THE BRIDE
Blue means pregnant.



KAREN
I'll read it myself, thank you.

It is blue, Karen's starting to believe her.



KAREN
Okay, say I were to believe you,
what then?



THE BRIDE
Just go home. I'll do the same.

Karen does...She starts backing out of the
room...before she
leaves, she says;



KAREN
You fucked with the Wong sisters.



BACK ON THE PORCH



THE BRIDE
Facing Karen Wong, was the most
frightening moment I have ever
experienced. And that includes
three years with that evil bastard
Pai Mei. Before that strip turned
blue, I was a woman, I was your
woman. I was a killer, who killed
for you. Before that strip turned
blue, I would have jumped a
motorcycle on to a speeding train
...for you. But once that strip
turned blue, I could no longer do
any of those things. Not anymore.
Because now I was a mother. A
mother who only had one thought on
her mind. Please don't harm my
baby. Can you understand that?
