Well I'm lazy and easily frustrated and will quit as soon as something gives me a headache - which is nearly everything - so I will not cheat and post the only 2 answers for those searches required. For some reason, Internet and database searches hate me and every time I try to find something to do with Stephen Stockwell or Paul Soukup or mobile phones I hit walls. There was some thing about phones and cancer and that is apparently still counted as "new" medical thinking thanks to some classification from the World Health Organisation, but I'm too lazy to chase down a credible source. Thus I arrive at the easy answers:
Governor Slugwell's first appearance, found through the underground comics trial database:
Burden, Bob, 1985, "When the Shoes Aren't Worth the Shine", Flaming Carrot Comics, no. 7
Leon's reaction to Holden's query:
"Leon looks shocked, surprised. But the needles in the computer barely move. Holden goes for the inside of his coat. But big Leon is faster. His laser burns a hole the size of a nickel through Holden's stomach. Unlike a bullet, a laser causes no impact. It goes through Holden's shoulder and comes out of his back, clean as a whistle. Like a rag doll he falls back into the seat. Big slow Leon is already walking away, but he stops, turns, and with a little smile of satisfaction fires through the back of the seat."
From:
Francher, Hampton & Peoples, David Webb & Kibbee, Roland, 1982, Blade Runner Draft Script, Alexander Street Press
And yes I know that this is later than it should be and of course incomplete. I still have to half-ass my way through the other required activities, leave me alone.
