Has anyone seen the Fox/Swan dialogue from the opening subway montage cut because Fox quit?

Well there is deleted dialog between Ajax and Swan, about Ajax being jumpy about Cyrus calling the meeting and everyone just goes. and Swan tells him his job is to soldier and keep quiet---so Ajax does ( more or less)
that is in one of the clips that you can view, I think on the main site here, and I know is up on warriorsareallivebunch site

I have never seen any deleted dialog with Fox that I can remember.

ONLY thing is in the ORIGINAL script, they have the dialog that never became part of the movie, where Fox tells the gang who he saw shoot Cyrus.but it was never filmed and no one has ever seen it.
There also is more dialog in OS from Fox where he almost get into a fight with Ajax, cause in that script Fox has REAL attitude!!!!

I think I get what you're saying emmisary, this is from the bloopers page:
At the start of the movie, Ajax asks The Fox if they'll be able to "waste a few heads along the way".

However it is not The Fox ... but Cleon, who answers "you just soldier and keep your mouth shut!".
So they obviously shot some footage of Fox for the subway montage, but Walter Hill refused to put it in because Thomas Waites walked out. So what happened to the footage? God knows, it might be gathering dust in the vaults of Paramount, or it might of been destroyed. But I doubt we'll ever see it. I wonder though if Fox was gonna deliver the same line as Cleon or if he was gonna say something different.
