BRAIN HARVEST (20)

Final Decision-Epilogue 



Ext: Tyrone's Back Parking Lot-11 P.M.

 Seeing Brian and Sydney in Odyssey coming into back parking lot with hallucinating couple in tow, Ginger and Angela exit's BMW with medieval blow dart tubes with knock-out darts as projectiles. As Brian and Sydney get out of van to start the process of untangling the subjects, the girls appear from behind the car, walking up nonchalantly. they put blow guns to their mouths and each blow darts into Brian and Sydney's necks, hitting them both at close range

Both in turn, sort of stare at the girls for a second, and both fall to the ground.


Ginger

"Nothing but a big pile of sleepy heads...we've reduced them to road kill...such a shame!"


Angela

"Who are these guys anyway, I'd do the big one...pretty cute?"


Ginger

"Just some stray compound chemist zero's...not sure where to take them now..."


Angela

"We could take them inside there, maybe tie 'em up to the wall, what do you think?"


Ginger

"Just an idea...don't look like they're in any shape for driving!"


Angela

"No way, shit I was thinking anything other than that..."


Ginger

"Well, good question, I really don't know...let's drag 'em in, good idea!"


(Scene Switch)


Int: Sydney looking out back window, seeing Brian and Sydney laying on ground.


Tyrone talking to himself

"What the fuck you guys be layin on the ground for?"


Ginger seeing Tyrone coming out door, walks around van, reloading blow gun, and quietly comes to his back, blowing the dart into his neck at close range.
Tyrone smiles for a second and falls to the ground.


Ginger

"Another loser to hit the dust, you fucking shit hole!"


Angela

"What a mess, it's getting crowded out here, let's at least get them out of the draft...come on help me here!"

They both start pulling Brian in first, one holding his legs and the other his arms.


(Scene Switch)


Paula slowly crawls up driveway in her car, lights off, already seeing Ginger's BMW wagon, Brian's Odyssey, and Tyrone's Toyota van.
She spots from a distance Ginger and Angela carrying Brian into building.


Paula talking to herself

"Damn, this doesn't look good...at all!"


Seeing Ginger and Angela dragging Brian into building.

She starts digging around in her purse, finding a small can of mace and remembering that her nephew left it under her seat, a small toy replica of a 38 special pistol.

She gets out of car and slowly approaches back window of building looking in.


(Scene Switch)


Ginger inside directing Angela to where to move drugged body's to.


Ginger

"Here, let's put them up against the wall, we can use this extension cord...just tie them all together!"


Angela

"Are these cords approved for tying 3 guys up?"


Ginger

"We'll soon find out, shit...we might as well take their pants off, too!"


(Scene Switch)


Couple left in van, start moving around, loosening up seat belts, they start freeing themselves and start making way their exit.
Couple hallucinating heavily, they wobble over to where Paula is standing as she looks into back window, she hears noise, turns around, couple like Zombies almost drooling on her, sprays them in the face with the mace.

They cover their faces moaning.


(Scene Switch)


Ginger hears groaning from outside budding

"What the hell was that?"

Angela

"Groaning like a bitch...maybe some animals got run over...I don't know!"

Ginger walks to window, seeing hallucinating couple wandering around, temporarily blinded by the mace, holding their eyes.


Ginger

"Who in the fuck are these guys anyway?"


Angela

"I think that was the couple for tonight's extraction?"


Ginger

"Yea, that's it, never thought of that...come to think of it, that's probably the way I was looking, all tripped out and half-baked?"


Angela

"You want to bring them in, too?"


(Scene Switch)


"Suddenly Paula comes around wall with Mace and fake pistol in hand

"Hey you two, what do you think your doing?"


Ginger

"Stay out of this...nothing here concerns you bitch!"


Paula

"Don't know about that, you two, you two have no business being back here...and what did you do with the men folk, look...you two better stand like really still, cause I'm a complete wacko...shit I haven't even killed anybody this morning, don't get me started!"


Ginger

"You don't even know what's going on...where in the hell did you come from anyway?"


Paula

"All I know, is that you girls need to get back in your car (waving the two girls over to the Ginger's BMW wagon with the toy pistol...come on, don't make me crazy and kill something...go!"


No response from the girls as they just regroup in the cold wind.

Ginger and Paula hesitate as Ginger starts to pull hammer back on firing pin, focusing the gun on them, the girls jump as she cocks back, Paula calculating their every move, she motions them to leave one more time.


Paula

"Now, let's be good girls and get the hell out of here...I'll turn you guys into bitchty bites in two seconds...don't even try me...understand...now get into your car and split...now?"


Ginger

"You wrong bitch, those are the bad guys (pointing to Brian, Sydney, and Tyrone), they been doing some nasty things to people, against their will, they ruined me and no telling how many others!"



Paula getting emotional

"But it's not permanent, I know what they're doing isn't right, but it happens, this damn stuff just happens...I never said it was right (starting to cry), it just...it just happens!"


Hallucinating Guy standing and listening

"It's happening right now...I see the world, right now, and look...here I am surrounded by you beautiful woman...I'm in paradise!"


Angela

"Oh God, that's so pathetic, somebody just shoot him!"


Ginger

"Girl, your not going to fix this by helping them out, don't you see what I went through, these suckers have to pay!"


Paula

"Well, what is done is done, nothing I can do can do to fix that...it's water under the bridge, what can I do about it?"


Hallucinating Girl

"I want to go home now, I've seen the world, but now please take me home...I've been surveyed enough, keep me out of this!"

All the girls shaking their heads


Ginger

"See, I was like that, all goofy and plum out of my mind..."


Paula

"Yea, I'll bet your a lot of fun when you've been drinking, too...look, all I want is these two guys (pointing to Brian and Sydney), you can do what you want with the brother...he was the one running this organization, if you can call it that...but my boys are coming home with me, no if's or buts understand?"

Paula walks over and starts untying Brian (only in his underwear), then Sydney, as he too falls to the floor.


Paula

"What in the hell did you drug them with anyway...man they're conked out good?"


Ginger

"Suppose to be a contact serum...suppose to wear off in an hour or two, but I don't even know what it is?"


Paula

"Well, that's just great, what am I suppose to do now?"


Angela

"Pour some cold water on them, that usually does the trick?"


Paula

"Come on (waving the toy pistol), help me move these guys over, you grab some legs and you grab the arms (grabbing Brian), put him over on the table. 
The girls comply.


Ginger

"So, what are you going to do with us, remember...we're not the problem here?"


Paula

"I'm still on the fence with all this shit, so fuck, I know what's going on, and yea...it's pretty disgusting...that's not what we're talking about here, so quit messing with my head..."

Paula starts looking through Tyrone's refrigerator, finds vial of B-12, and finds a packaged needle set in stash box.
Pulls a 10 milligram draw of the B-12 into the syringe, pats Brian's butt with a prep pad and injects the dose into him.


Angela

"So, I'm confused, you thought coming over here was going to fix anything?"


Ginger

"Aw fuck, she's in Love with one of the mad men, can't you see this shit?"


Paula

"Well, there's the bad guys, and those that just got drawn in...save somebody's ass this morning...so here goes, take Tyrone if you want to, have a fucking field day for all I care...but remember, if you do any bodily harm to him, the police will consider that mayhem...and ah, that's not a traffic ticket either!"

Brian starts coming around, scratching his neck, noticing he's not wearing any clothes.


Brian

"Whoa man, what's going on...man my neck is killing me...where's my clothes, shit?"


Paula

"Welcome back stranger, you were attacked my some misguided mosquitoes...your clothes are over there...hey, feel like driving?"


Brian

"Not really, where are we going?"


Paula

"Out...I'm calling the cops to come get your boss...if they're lucky...look, hate to throw you an ultimatum in your condition, but you need to decide on me or this shit...wouldn't wait too long on your answer, I think the natives are ready to cut your ass...I mean these vigilante bitzos are damn near ready to cut your damn balls off, so what is it?"


Brian seeing Ginger as former abductee


"That's the girl...one of them anyway we once did, I remember that face!"


Ginger

"You damn right bastard, you lucky your still...


Paula

"Shut up right now twinkle tits...you see her Brian...catch back with her would have either left you dead or wishing you were, so come on, we gotta go, Sydney's already in the back seat, I'm suggesting that you make an attempt to get your van out, too!"


Ginger walking up

"What's the big game plan Mother Love?"


Paula

"Look...I get it, don't push...once I leave with the boys in tow, I'm calling the cops over here...the hallucinating couple wandering around the neighborhood (looking at Brian) no telling where they're at, thanks to your sorry ass...but anyway, here's the deal, you either quit this shit this morning and have a chance with me or you can sit in some hell hole jail for no telling how long and waste your life away, you here me?"


Brian confused

"You mean you came over here...to give yourself...to me?"


Paula

"Look, I know your in no condition to make critical decisions...choices...but you don't have much time...so the prognosis is you either become a doctor and I will be your wife or you can spend twenty something years in a jail cell with some guy named Big Joe and you can be his bitch...what say you?"


Brian

"I like the first idea...can we go now?"


Hallucinating Couple coming back into parking lot from roaming around neighborhood.


Hallucinating Guy

"Where did you say we had to go to complete this taste test, this is taking too long...where is outside anyway?"


Hallucinating Girl

"It tasted good going down, but you just can't remember drinking it..."


Everybody just looks at each other and starts laughing.



(Scene Close)


EPILOGUE

Brian and Paula did get married, but Brian and Sydney never completed

their M.D. degrees due to the fact they had both forged their residency documents.

Instead they both became licensed homeopathic consultants in the State of California,

opening a chain of very successful nutritional stores called "Brain Foods".


Tyrone was found dead after he apparently overdosed on a wafer of Serotonin, that

he accidentally mistook for a Pop-Tart!


Ding-Wing was arrested and charged with trafficking unregistered body parts

and unclassified body fluids, however he was eventually acquitted after the authorities

found that the process was valid, just not recognized or understood by the court system.

Ding-Wing received a patent on the extraction process which he ended up selling to a

 pharmaceutical company for billions of dollars. 

He now lives on his own private island in the Turks, 

where he offers memory sabbaticals to visiting clients!

Brain Harvest (19)

Unexpected Party

Ext: Tulane Medical School-Tuesday-2 p.m.

Brian and Sydney getting out of class.

Going into parking garage, getting into Odyssey

Brian

"That was a bitch class, every time we have Taylor, trying to do her interpretations on what she thinks the meaning of DNA means. I mean it's like there's not enough stars in the universe, it blows my mind!"

Sydney

"Beer goggles on me when she speaks, I just figure the universe wins out once again..."

Brian

"I thought we'd do something different...how 'bout the Bayou Mall...haven't done a big mall before...should be a nice change up..."

Sydney

"Aren't we getting beyond ourselves...you mean like a real food court...I'm pumped!"

Brian

Possibilities are endless...just think, big jumbo salted pretzels, unlimited gooey Bear claws, and lots of slushy mushies, slurpy smoothies...combinations that will blow your mind...can't go wrong with that...excellent place to taste new things!"

Sydney

"Plenty of choices...and I'm thinking we be the alternate...maybe"

Brian

"Good way of looking at the obvious...oh, by the way...the way that mall is configured, it might be kind of a bitch getting in and out...you know from where we're parked...gonna need to look around, try to find the closest spot to the exit.

Coming around the corner, they find the freight loading area which just happens to connect to the backs of the restaurants.

Brian

"Perfect, just like the Doctor ordered!"

Sydney

"Out of sight, out of mind..."

Walking around to the front of the mall entrance, walking through mall, going into food court.

Brian seeing sign saying "Beefy Fries".

Brian

"Boy, that's a heart attack made in heaven, just waiting to happen..."

Sydney

"It's crazy some of the stuff they sell around here...they should have a special kiosk for Lipid test!"

Brian

"It's a lesson in creative chemistry, like how many flavors can we put into a chicken before one realizes it was machine separated and reconstituted, how many colors can we make them out of...hey look a bright red double crusted corn dog...no chicken, but somewhere a dog was mentioned...yummy!

Brian spots lone girl and guy over by the Super Sloppy Joe kiosk.

Brian

"Come on, we've got clients waiting 12 o'clock dead ahead!"

Sydney

"These two...they look like they would prefer to be left alone?"

Brian walks up

"Excuse me, how's your Super Sloppy?"

Guy looking irritated

"It's fine, just fine...can I help you with something?" 

Brian

"We were doing a random taste test..."

Sydney

"We're from the National Underground Taste Test Committee."

Brian looking around, spots a guy with a camera from a distance and waves to him.

Guy waves back


Brian

"That's our cameraman over there...anyway could could you take a moment and taste a product, see if you can tell any difference?"


Guy

"Do I get paid for this, what's going on here?"


Brian

"After the survey okay, let's see how you do..."


Sydney already pouring shroom elixir into plastic cup, handing it to Guy

"Here you go sir!"


Guy taking sip, smacking lips

"Wow, kinda of...kinda punchy...like a strawberry/ cherry something?"


Girl

"I wanna try, please, please, please, tell your photographer to frame me, I'm perfect for a promotion!"


Sydney pours another cup and hand it to her.

"Here you go...look into the camera and be surprised!"


Guy

"Wow, where's the other sample?"


Sydney

"Oh, I'm sorry...it's in the other side of the Thermos, it's a split holder, hold on..."


Guy sipping round two of same side of Thermos

"Oh boy...this one is much better, really setting things off now...like whoa...hey, what's in this shit?"


Sydney

"It's a current combination of the new and improved and the tried and been there!"


Girl (now starting to hallucinate)

"It all...well makes sense to me...life is so fucking cool man!"


Guy

"My questions have been answered, the second one is the better of the dozen I've tried so far..."


Brian looking at Sydney

"They most certainly have been, now...so, without any questions that we care to answer...now you two, if you guys...being the couple in wait...would now be good enough to come outside to finish the rest of the interview and be rewarded with an unplanned weekend road trip in the middle of the week...who knew how lucky you Guy's fell into luck..."


Guy

"Okay, sounds like someone's gettin something...hey...can I bring my girlfriend, too...she puts out when she's in the mood...kinda like always...puts out that is?


Brian

"Of course, putting out freely is a great incentive to the bigger prize...here's an idea...let's bring her along, too, and see what happens?"


Guy

"Sounds like we be hittin on somethin, this is too cool man...where do we go?"


Sydney

"Come with us, the limo awaits..."


They escort the hallucinating couple to the back freight exit and into the awaiting van.

Angela

"Your serious about all this girl...huh...never thought it would get to these darts...are you sure this crap is gonna work?"

Int: Luigi's Deli-Elysian Fields Avenue-10 P.M.

Paula talking to her best friend Katy while going through this night's receipts.


Paula

"Can't figure out why a guy with as much as he has to look forward to, is messing around with this monkey business like he is?"


Katy

"Well...maybe he's overcome with the money...that's usually what sucks 'em in, it does the deal!


Paula

"So, all this is...is a thrill rush, like a greed trip...he's like living a dream, on the outside...of course, he could be dealing drugs or something?"


Katy

"It's the whole image thing, everybody get's an inside angle, a position or something...can't help themselves...didn't seek it...it just found them...happens all the time!"


Paula

"Well, it's a little more complicated than that...I mean this guy is dealing people..."


Katy

"What...I thought you said he was working some side clinic shit, that's what you told me, right?


Paula

"Not completely straight with you on that...just so you know,,,he's getting people high against their will, abducting them, then taking them to this place where body chemical are extracted, like brain fluids and stuff, then they return them back to the streets...like fucking nothing ever happened!"


Katy

"What the fuck...that's kidnapping...do yourself a favor and don't get caught up in his shit, his hell hole, you hear me?"


Paula

"That's just it...I've already went on a mission with them, thought he was making it up, but it turned out to be the real deal, now whatever you want to call it...an outing, and yea, I even took part in drawing these guys in...I know the the whole game, and shit...I still can't this guy out of my mind...it just sucks!"


Katy

"Well, if you've got your foot that far into the door, I would simply consider if he is a keeper, worth the risk, from there an ultimatum, you or his wacky ways...he's got to make a choice and decide...listen to me...if he's worth it...find his answer, save yourself a heart break, okay?"


Paula

"Yea, your right...one things for sure?"


Katy

"What's that?"


Paula

"Nothings going to change, if I don't take a stand!"


Katy

"Exactly..."


Paula

"Well, let's see, I know where he should be at right now...maybe I can get lucky...you know, cut him off at the path..."


Katy

"Well, it's simple really...if he doesn't want to play ball with you, you've seen the light...the answer is clear, no sitting around guessing where this is going to go, or end up...right?"


Paula

"Your too good to me, I'm going to see what's going on right now...hope you don't mind me splitting early?"


Katy

"Your doing the right thing...good luck girl...be careful out there!"

"Yea, caught me completely off guard when he asked for the other sample...just look at them two...tripping blissfully into the moonlight!"

Brain Harvest (18) Remembering The Hell

BRAIN HARVEST (18)

Remembering The Hell

Int: Tulane Medical School-Professor Fennel's Class-Monday-2 p.m.

Professor Fennel

"Now the Golgi bodies transport the different proteins, remember that...through the channels, gates, and the pumps to the right locations, just like a postal service."

Random Student

"Probably a lot faster, too!"

(Everybody Laughing)

Brian raising hand

"Excuse me, but how does it know where to send each protein?"

Professor Fennel

"Good question Brian, especially when you consider protein packaging consist of 25 thousand genes which in turn can make 25 thousand polypeptide chains of protein, now consider the shape of the protein, as it can change according to it's purpose, to the surrounding molecules, it's ability to fit in, and this is all decided by the dna template strand which is copied exactly from the Endoplasmic Reticullum...the studded Ribosomes characterizes the RNA molecule, giving it it's predetermined address, like I said, this is merely a copy called the mRNA or messenger DNA...which is shipped to the factory floor so to speak, where each protein is carefully developed for it's eventual function based on the pre-encoded template...okay?"

Brian to Sydney

"See, I was paying attention...I'm getting my money's worth out of this yet!"

Sydney raising hand

"Oh yea, well watch this..."

Fennel

"Go ahead sir...what was your name?"

Sydney

"Sydney...Sydney Waxman...so during those changes, these modifications, does the mRNA form into amino acids?"

Fennel

"No, the mRNA translates into polypeptide chains, or a chain of amino acids which is a basic way of saying it's converted from one language to the other...don't forget, the amino acids bind to one another by a chemical bond between carbon and nitrogen, called the peptide bond, in groups...resulting in a peptide chain!"

Brian

"Excuse me sir, one ore question, I seem to remember you saying that proteins encompass 20 different peptide chains..." (sticking tongue out at Sydney)

Fennel

"Correct, just consider how many words one can make with an alphabet of 26 letters...remember we're talking polypeptide, an almost limitless number of combinations...they are not like two peptides which is two, but mutiply that at 20 times 20 at 400, or or 20 times 20 times 20 you get 8000, and can anyone remember the Latin for those two?"

Sydney holding hand up

Fennel

"Yes Waxman, I mean Sydney?"

Sydney

"Two peptides are a dipetide and three is a tripetide..." (sticking tongue back at Brian)

Bell rings, doors unlock

Fennel

"Till next Monday, study those channels, gates, and pumps...they'll be a quiz, and don't forget to think before using your brain...it's there for a reason...use it, till next time...good day!"

Walking out toward parking garage.

Brian

"Getting a little competitive here...Lovin it!"

Sydney

"Only three weeks till finals, not gonna fuck it up now..."

Brian

"Well, even if I don't know everything, at least I can kiss some ass and get on their good side!"

Sydney

"Same thing I was thinking, we should hang out, maybe get a room together...

Brian

"Funny wabbit...thought I'd head back and take a shower, those classes always make me feel dirty!"

Sydney

"Wonder who we'll run into tonight?

Brian

"You mean for those we choose to enter Zombie Land?"

Sydney

"Yea, the world of tomorrows with dreams you'll never remember..."

Brian

"Nor want to... you know..what's been bugging me, the only thing I can't get out of my mind is Tyrone blowing up on Paula...can't get that shit out of my mind!"

Sydney

"He's all or nothing, attitude is not one of his better virtues...I wouldn't let it worry you?"

Brian

I know there's no reason to be worried, be angry, or even care...he'll always be an asshole, it's in his genes!"

Sydney

"As long as he keeps it in his jeans..."

Brian

"Paula certainly stood up to him...the girl isn't scared of anything or anyone..."


Sydney

"Nope, she's an original!"

Ginger (formerly abducted victim) shopping with girlfriend Angela


Ginger

"Are you sure about needing the extra free range chicken breast?"


Angela (Valley Girl)

"Of course, it's like the most awesome thing, the meat is to die for...it's amazing!


Ginger

"What's the difference, it's freaking chicken?"


Angela

"Are you for real...you know that just regular "gag me with a spoon" free range chickens just walks around moping, dragging their ass, no guidance...no incentive to think healthy, firm up, where as the extra free range chickens have their own personal trainers, that stimulate and encourage the birds to get off their ass and move around!"


Ginger

"Like what, doing laps, sprints, chicken marathons?"


Angela

"Something like that...all I know is that they taste better.

Sydney

"Didn't realize Tyrone had so much shit, dude's like a pack rat..."


Brian

"Hey, don't forget we were moving a medical clinic, too?"


Sydney

"No, more like a plasma center where you don't get paid...you just do a two day withdraw!"


Brian

Like a blood center you take stoners against their will who can't tolerate reality...shit this place is packed tonight...people acting like they haven't eaten in week!"


Sydney

"Only place I know where you can pick up a loaf of organic bread for only 10 bucks!"


Brian

"Nothing on sale, shit nothing is ever on sale at Whole Foods...their claim to fame...blatant price gouging at it's finest..."


Sydney

"And they Love it, too!"


Brian

"You got that right, come on...let's see who wants to play Zombie King tonight!"


Brian and Sydney walk into Whole Foods

Angela

Angela

"Are you dead sure...you don't want to go around pointing fingers unless your positive?"


Ginger

"Oh yea, I'm sure, that's the guys...wonder what the hell they're doing back over here?"


Angela

"Shopping, it's what everybody else comes here to do?"


Ginger

"Yea, they're shopping alright, but what they're looking for doesn't fit in a cart...we have to keep an eye on these guys..."


Angela

"Maybe we should follow them around, see what they're up to?"


Ginger

"That's just what I was thinking, come on...let's get your jock chicken, and hang loose. 


(Scene Switch)


Brian and Sydney making quick time with the Gay Duo

Gay Guy #1

Ginger

"Yea, it's all coming back now, we can follow them and see what's up, probably over at that place on Carrollton Avenue."


Ginger follows them, but soon realizes they're going to a different location.


Ginger

"No, no something's not right here, they're going east, what the fuck?"


Angela

"What's wrong, thought you knew these guys?"


Ginger

"No...that's not it, this is not the right direction...they must have moved or something."


Pulling close to the entrance of the back parking lot of the old clock shop on Loyala they stop.
Watching Brian's van pulling in.


Ginger

"So, this is a new place...we can't just go back there right now, for all I know they've got weapons and stuff back there..."


Angela

"What are we going to do?"


Ginger

"Nothing right now...but we can come back a little bit more prepared next time..."


Angela

"This is crazy girl...whatta you have in mind?"


Ginger

"Our own little forced form of abduction, I'm gonna make those fuckers pay dearly on our next visit!

BRAIN HARVEST (17)

Calling Your Bluff

Int: Tulane Medical School-Professor Yardley's Class-11 A.M.

Professor Yardley

"If you remember when we were talking of divergence, that fine control required, like using the the fingers, which must be capable of delicate controlled motions of many varieties..."

Brian whispering to Sydney

"Talk about delicate controlled emotions...he's already making my nerves twitch...wonder when he's going to start talking about wienies again?"

Sydney to Brian

"I'm not a betting man, but you know it's coming..."

Brian to Sydney

"Yea, one hand on the desk, one hand on the meat..."

Professor Yardley

"Now the fibers from the motor area form into the Pyramidal Tract, that being...the tract that connects the cortex and the spinal cord, hence the Corticospinal Tract..."

Brian to Sydney

"Having fun yet?"

Sydney to Brian

"This is like Chinese water torture, only instead of water he's dripping acid on your head!"

Professor Yardley

There are roughly 150 thousand muscle fibers in one Pyramidal Cell...don't forget the Pyramidal Cell has control over all motion from the cortex to the spinal column."

Bell ringing, doors unlock

Yardley

"Okay guys, till Monday...the Corpus Callosum and the Basal Ganglia await your discovery!"

Brian walking out

"Like a fucking hemorrhage it does, this guy doesn't know when to quit...guy drives me nuts!"

Sydney

"Think of a really bad sit-com with no commercials...so where are we going now?"

Brian

"Well, back home...gotta take a shower and get ready for this afternoon..."

Sydney

"What's so pressing about this afternoon?"

Brian

"Got a picnic with Paula."

Sydney

"With Paula...or is Paula the picnic?"

Brian

"Depends on how this irons out...depends on what she has in the basket?"

Sydney

"Oh...I get it...a surprise lunch!"

Brian laughing

"Yea, it could be sandwiches and potato salad, or a hot dog on a bun?"

Sydney

"Sounds more like your hot dog in her bun!"

Brian

"Then I guess you were right?"

Sydney

"'Bout what?"

Brian

"Paula would be the picnic..."

(Scene Switch)

(Two Hours Later)

Ext: New Orleans-Shore of Lake Pontchartrain-Somewhere on Lakeshore Drive-2 P.M.

Brian and Paula sitting on sea wall eating po-boys, sharing a a quart of Dixie beer.

Brian

"So...what is it with this Wicken shit?"

Paula

"It's not shit, it's an ancient religion, a way of life!"

Brian

Sorry, with this Wicken religion, you can pretty much worship anywhere, huh?"


Paula

"Of course, the world is our church, natures the altar."


Brian

"Seems perfect, ever get called "Tree Hugger" or anything?"


Paula

Oh sure, comes with the territory, but you get use'd to it...what about you...other than you wanting to be a Brain Doctor?"


Brian

"A supposed Neurologist..."


Paula

"Yea that, what do you do?"


Brian

"To be honest, I've got kind of a dark side, doing some immoral stuff..."


Paula starts cracking up

"I knew it, I knew you were too good to be true, thank God for early on lakefront get together's...so what, now your going to lay me some bullshit about being the world's biggest spy huh...maybe some top secret organization of espinoge that you can't discuss, the lone drifter on a mission, working for a big syndicate?"


Brian

"No really, nothing like that, just some immoral activities..."


Paula

"Well, spill it out...I've heard 'em all...don't worry, I'm a great listener!"


Brian

"Well, we basically encourage people people off the street..."


Paula

"When you say encourage, what are you implying?"


Brian

"We meet them, try to get them friendly, slip them a mickey in their drink or just offer them a sample of something, get them to try this, and then when they are zoned out of their minds, we borrow them for a day or two, drain their body's of any neurological brain chemicals...things like Serotonin, Dopamen, whatever is in demand that day from our Lab Leader, that part is completely out of our hands..."


Paula

"So, let me see if I have this straight...you basically kidnap people, drain their bodies, and what...take them out some where in a cage far out of town and just...and just set them free...like some kind of wild animal?"


Brain

"In a nutshell...except we don't put them in a cage, we usually just drive them to Denny's for breakfast or to the bus station, pay the bill, say we're going to the bathroom and leave...told you it was kind of immoral!"


Paula

"For the Love of God, that's the sickest thing I've ever heard..."


Brian

"Well, you asked, so there it is!"


Paula

"Do...stupid question this is...what am I thinking, but do they...recover?"


Brian

"In a day or two I guess...other than a little unexplained missing time, they go back to normal."


Paula

"I'm assuming, this is illegal...I mean how much you get for taking all this risk?"


Brian

"Yes and no, kind of a new crime that the Police haven't exactly classified...yet anyway...perhaps criminal clinical procedures, medical maleficence...that including the intentional drugging, abduction, and like I said...the unapproved medical procedures...and for all of it my buddy and me make about 8 grand for three pick ups each week, takes about three hours a night, pretty routine once you get the hang of it!"


Paula

"So, you do this three days a week?"


Brian

"Depending, maybe four...and then we bring in more than one sometimes, too!"


Paula

"So, there's more than one at a time?"


Brian

"Our record is three...they're in no condition to drive, so the vehicle get's filled up pretty quick!"


Paula

"Well hell, by all means, I must check this out!"


Brian

"Really, are you serious?"


Paula

"Brian...not to be discrediting of what you just told me...but in all good conscious, I must see this for myself...I took a big chance dating you...I've been single a long time...if you get my drift...I really want to like you...so no matter what it is, if it's the truth...I can live with that...although I wished you had just told me you were an underground spy, I could deal with that...so when are you going to do another catch and release?"


Brian

"Tonight, round seven-thirty..."


(Scene Switch)

(Four Hours Later)


Brian, Sydney, and Paula pulling up and parking at 24 Hour Fitness Center.


Brian

"It's one of our favorites...are you sure your ready for this?"


Paula

"Shoot the moon honey...let's hit this bad boy!"


Brian

"Okay, first...let's go through a few procedures."


Paula

"Oh, let me get this straight...you mean you don't just go in there and start force feeding them and dragging them into the van?


Sydney

"It's all patterned from trial and error, you have to appear open and desirable...get their trust, then proceed slowly, very methodically."


Paula trying to regroup

"Okay, so this requires deception?"


Sydney

"On the highest order..."


Paula

"So, that we can get them high and take them bye-bye?"


(Everybody starts laughing)


Sydney

"Where did you get this chick...she's perfect!"


Brian

"Okay class clowns, now Paula...try to pay attention...we're just going to go in there...kind of check out the weights and the equipment, anybody from the place comes up, you just say your  looking at the facility, nothing more, okay?"


Paula

"Yes sir....so what kind of people are you looking for?"


Sydney

Mostly people preoccupied with themselves, not really aggressive toward anyone, no instigation...just king of self-contained."


Paula

"So, you guys come in and try to connect, like long lost buddies, sort of...get their confidence?"


Brian

"Yea, they're kinda like ("Wow, I got lucky here and wasn't even trying!"), like money for nothing..."


Sydney

"Chicks are free...sorry, excuse the pun there...just do the vernacular, at this point they're ready for anything!" 


Brian

"You induce trust, spontaneity, their natural impulses pop in, a long with a little curiosity, and BAM, your in the driver's seat, they're eating out of your hand...


Paula

"Got it!"


(Scene Switch)


All three walking into the 24 Hour Fitness club.
People on Stair-masters, exercise bikes, people working on weights, juice bar over in the corner

Brian spots guy helping a buff blonde headed girl holding a pair of large dumbbells


(Scene Switch)


Trainer Guy

"Now breath in, come on...pull the weight up...come on, over your head, okay hold...hold, all right now...slowly bring down the weight, exhale slowly, slowly...there you go!"


Buff Blonde Girl

"Man, you can really feel that burn when you bring it down slowly..."


Guy

"Where do you feel it?"


Girl

"In my tits, it's making my tits sore...you know, my breast...that whole area!"


Guy

"It's okay, sore tits are good, it's from your muscles getting all that fresh oxygen...okay, let's repeat!"


(Scene Switch)

Brian

"These two look interesting, why don't we walk over and get friendly...hey Sydney (busily pigging out at snack bar)...guard those Guaco chips...whatever the hell those green things are, come on Paula..."


(Scene Switch)


Brian and Paula make there way over to the couple


Guy

"Okay, now we are going to work on the tri-ceps, then the glutes."


Girl

"Did you say my glutes...what are they, are they flabby?"


Guy

"No, no they're just out of tone!"


Girl

"They don't have any tone...heck mine don't even make any noise!"


Guy sensing ditsy blonde air head

"Ah...right, well okay, let's see...pull the body over, now take the weight and pull straight up there on the side of your body...there you go, good girl!"


Girl

"I like being a good girl..."


Guy

"I'm sure you will, can, I mean could, I mean are...ah now...where were we?"


Brian interrupting

"Excuse me, didn't mean to interrupt, was just admiring her technique."


Guy

"Yea, I was too, I mean...no problem, it's cool...just trying to show her the ropes, get her started right!"


Girl

"He's my trainer, hey Dah it's weights....not ropes, but he's training me, I'm his student, we are trying to make my tits burn..."


Paula breaking in

"I've been there...well before my trainer here starting breaking me in!"


Guy laughing

"Oh, your a trainer, Hi I'm Bob...Bob Turner, 24 Hour fitness associate...here doing weights, cardio, a little reflexology..."


Brian

"So, you bulk up their torso's, get them winded, and tickle their feet?"


Guy (Bob) laughing

"Wish it was that easy, but everybody has their own ways of achieving that perfect body...so, how long have you been training?


Brian

"Well, she's one of my first, I'm just getting started."


Paula

"He's still just a virgin, but we'll be breaking the seal as soon as he's ready!"


Brian pushing Paula

"That girl, what's this, everybody a comedian all of a sudden?"


Paula

"No, it's this damn health drink he made for my program (Pulling strapped Thermos off Brian's shoulder)...can't get enough of it, you two should try this stuff, better for you than a smoothie, it really does wonders for your muscles..."


Girl

"Does it keep your tits from getting sore?"


Paula

"That too, I Love it!"


Guy

"Really, what's the secret?"


Brian looking wild-eyed at Paula


Sydney walking up from snack bar

"Hey man, got anymore of that?"


Brian

"Hey my friend, wait your turn, we have guest...company here!"


Paula continuing

"It's loaded with vita-nutrients and just wait till you hear about the good stuff that's inside...here guys, take a shot!"

Paula saunters off to smoothie table, picking up two small cups, stopping, turning her head toward guy and smiling. She proceeds to bend over, poking her her butt out, like a monkey style presentation, she proceeds to pour some of the strawberry shroom elixir into the cups.

Paula walks over and hands them each a cup

"Here, make yourselves happy!"


Both drinking the elixir, as Brian and Sydney just watch Paula work the room.


(10 Minutes Pass)


Guy

"This is really...really unusual, I feel happy, but yet I don't care, it doesn't matter, and then it does matter..."


Girl

"Student to trainer, where's my tits?"


Guy

"But because it matters doesn't matter, because life is beautiful and I just don't care!"


Paula

"That makes perfect sense, your a perfect man, a real dreamboat, I would do you in a moment if my boyfriend wasn't here...but you know... good healthy living is like that!" 


Girl

"I don't know what's happening, but I wish everyone would quit moving around...everything...one...is kinda wavy and shit...oh my God!"


Paula putting her hands up (like what's next)


Brian mouthing back to Paula with drink commands accidentally blurts out

"Another hit!"


Paula

"Hey guys, a breath of fresh air completes the experience, is everybody ready?"


Guy

"I thought we were already outdoors, never seen wildlife in the gym!"


Girl

"We are outside on the inside of the world of our minds...my God and there's more...shit!"


Brian to Paula

"Sounds like you, only without the energy drink!"


Paula to Brian

"She's a spiritual woman, just bound up in her creative juices, kind of neat watching her unwind and express...chemically induced, but what the hell..."


Girl

"I can feel all the cosmic ventures brewing forth, the butterflies caressing the tree with their wings..."


Paula

"Oh boy...this is weirding "me" out!"


Sydney coming back from outside, from pulling van into entrance, to Brian

"Sir, have the Rose in position, you ready to load sir?"


Girl hearing Sydney

"Oh please, show me your Rose, the blossoms are amazing, the petals, the vivid colors of the rainbow Goddess..."


Brian

"Oh yea...I think we've been ready, let's go!"


(Scene Switch)


Guy on left back seat, girl on right back seat, Paula in the middle, with her arms around both of them.


Paula to Brian

"You just have to have a woman's purgative toward the venture...that is if chosen, most still don't have that advantage...but we're getting better, we're getting there!"


Brian to Paula

"Either way, you've definitely got the touch...shit you were working that room like a seasoned professional...so what did you think?"


Paula to Brian

"Beats making sandwiches, but I'm sure they are not all this simple?"


Brian to Paula

"Actually, some are even easier than this, just how you approach it that matters..."


Sydney to both

"Yea once, years ago, but by choice, I was looking at the butterflies and the trees...it was the only time I really tripped on acid..."


Brian

"Save it Syd, we're home..."


Brian pulls into back parking lot of new building.
Tyrone comes to the door
Tyrone seeing Paula for the first time, he assumes Brian brought him 2 girls and a guy


Tyrone

"Boy, you guys not be messing around, that's fucking amazing, just poppin back to the threesomes just like that...shit, like nobodies business you guys are something else!"


Paula slips out from between the hallucinating couple

"Hi, I'm not one of the space cadets here, new face otherwise..."


Brian

"Yea, this is my new recruit, ah this is Paula, Paula...Tyrone...please save your assumptions for the Gossip Queens...she's just a close friend, was just curious about the operation, we good with that?"


Tyrone

"I ain't got nothing going, I like women, Tyrone always like women...they wanna play the little game, like for real man, let's do it!"


Brian looking around at freshly painted blue walls, floors cleaned up, windows cleaned and shining.

"Wow, really like what you've done to the place...dig the blue!"


Tyrone undoing seat belts on hallucinating couple

"Cool man, thought you'd like it...worked my ass off this afternoon!"


Sydney finding Coo-Coo clock freshly painted and mounted on wall, pendulum swinging.

"Look at this shit, even got the bird in the air!"


Tyrone

"Little booger was a pain in the ass, damn bird full of spiders and shit, but finally just took a hose and washed it out, gave her a coat of paint, and brought that bitch back to life...I like it!"


Sydney

"Thanks man, I like it, too!

All of a sudden, the clock hits 11 o'clock, little freshly painted bird (still wet) comes out and spews paint all over Sydney who's standing in front.

Coo-Coo Bird

"Coo-coo, coo-coo, coo-coo..."


Sydney 

"On second thought, I'd like to take a pellet gun to that fucking bird...look at my clothes man...fuck!"


Brian

"Bird's just showing you some Love man, enjoy the moment!"


Tyrone

"I'll have to adjust that later, but we have guest to attend to at the moment...so what do you really think...ah?"


Paula

"The names Paula."


Tyrone

"Like right Paula, boy you be spunky and cute as a button girl...Tyrone like that, so...what's it doing for you?"


Paula

"Doing?"


Tyrone

"Yea, like you want to hang out, make your sweet ass a little money, maybe Tyrone let you play with that sweet ass, Tyrone "knows" what a pretty white girl like you need...trust me!"


Paula laughing

"You do...well that's comforting, every white girl needs to know these things...got that big black junk a girl needs and desires you sexy thing!"


Tyrone leaning in

"Now you speaking brother Tyrone's language, we be on the same page...right?"


Paula

"Well, I can say this much, Brian doesn't bluff on this shit, but in my opinion...this stuff is exactly as he defined it, it's just a big ass mind game...like for real!"


Tyrone

"Oh yea honey, we do this shit for real, ain't nobody...and I mean nobody we can't do if we put our minds to it...understand me now sweet thing!"


Brian walking back in

"Yea, she was a skeptic, but she came out of the closet real quick!"


Tyrone

"Well, if you want, we'll be doing another one on Monday...that is if your interested in coming?"


Paula

"I don't know, I mean I have a "real" job, I'm only off on Fridays!"


Tyrone

"Real job...what you doing now woman...this is a real job, real money, good future...bitch you on the inside now, you hear Tyrone...you can't just dis Tyrone like that..."


Brian pissed

"Wait a minute my brotherly shitfaced fuckhead, you don't be talking shit like that to her...better clean it up Tyrone or you won't have anybody playing paddy wagon, you hear me...look, she manages a pretty upbeat deli, she is a take charge kind of woman...you bastard assed piece of shit self-centered street fucker, don't even fuck with me, understand?"


Tyrone

"No, you be pulling shit now...she could be making big money with Tyrone, but she'd rather be throwing Bologna on white bread, making fucking bird feed, what the fuck she think she is?"


Brian

"I'm sorry Paula, Tyrone talking out his ass...paint thinner must of got to him, let's go!"


Paula

"That's okay, I'm sorry I started a war here...ah Mister Tyrone, I really appreciate you letting me check out your operation here, but I have feelings for Brian...real ones...I had asked him to prove his side-line and he did, his story gelled...despite the generous offer...I'm committed to feeding the starved college masses with my meager salary...someone must throw the Bologna I'm afraid..."


Tyrone

"Yea, well...to each his own, sorry I popped off like that...but I thought you were looking for a new career, you know...in the medical business?"


Paula laughing

"Medical business...how long do you think your going to get away with this...do you really call this a career...come on dude?"


Tyrone

"Better get this bitch out of here, Tyrone be upset...nobody like it when Tyrone get upset...she put dissed on Tyrone's empire, I will exist forever understand me, you cheap ass white bread bitch, I will succeed and conquer, you understand Tyrone...you believe Tyrone..."


 Sydney to Brian

"Sounds like someone need a piece of wafer?"


Brian to Sydney

"If it was up to me, I'd shove the whole thing in his mouth!"


Paula to Brian

"It's good, I believe you now...lets leave!


Tyrone to Brian

"Oh yea man, her's your checks from last round, don't spend it all in one place?"


"I'll keep that in mind...good night...come on gang!"
