BRAIN HARVEST (16)
New Feathers
Int: Ding Wing's Main Office-New Orleans East-Downman Road-Thursday-7 a.m.
Ding Wing (Chief Manager) and Tyrone discussing new location for medical lab.
Ding Wing
"These things are gonna happen...I thought for sure that location wasn't a problem...it looked perfect, but somebody talked."
Tyrone
"Shit, I can't believe they picked me up...you know they could have pushed those charges on me, but the D.A. was too chicken shit, afraid of a cultural riot or something...they just let me go!"
Ding Wing
There is a reason for everything...we were already generating too much activity over there...they would have gotten suspicious eventually...so I've decided to spread this out a bit, I've got a piece of property over an Loyola and 6th street...it's an old storefront with an apartment up top...lot's of hidden parking in the back, bigger main floor, you should take the boys and check it out!"
Tyrone
"No problem, but what about moving all that medical equipment?"
Ding Wing
"Nothing that a few boxes, some throw clothes, and a little heavy manual labor can't take of..."
Tyrone
"So, I can live there, too?"
Ding Wing
"It will be just like the old place, except I would like to continue paying the rent there for a couple of months till things calm down...they'll still think your living there and won't get nosy about you moving all of a sudden...so how are my medical students holding up?"
Tyrone
"A little edgy, but that's the way they always are...always scared you might shoot them if they don't cooperate..."
Ding Wing
"Well, they are getting paid...don't know what they're worried about?"
Tyrone
They still have a lot of learning to do and they need to make a lot more pick-ups before I would consider them seasoned...a lot of learning to do...so when did you want to make this move anyway?"
Ding Wing
"About 1 o'clock today..."
Tyroon
"Why today...during the day?"
Ding Wing
"When no one will think to look....everybody is at work, school, doing things...I already have the U-Haul rented, get the boys to help you!"
Tyrone
"That might be a problem...I don't know how to contact Brian during the day...Brian's a little restrictive when it comes to his phone usage."
Ding Wing
"What...has the boy heard of a cell phone yet?"
Tyrone
"It's not that, he's worried about calls being tracked."
Ding Wing
"Well, figure out a way to contact him, we don't have all day...you know where he lives?"
Tyrone
"Yea, but I've never actually been over there, by Tulane...I guess I could go see?"
Ding Wing
"There you go, just drop in and see if he's home, what's the harm...and if you do get him, meet me over in the back of the old apartment about 1 o'clock, drop me a call and I'll treat some lunch!"
Tyrone
"Sounds like a deal, let me get going..."
(Fist Tap)
(1 Hour Later)
(Scene Switch)
Tyrone just parked on Broadway Avenue
Staring at all the hot co-eds roaming around
Tyrone making comment
"Hey sweet thing, give me some of that good chicken baby, like me some thigh meat Mama!
Continued walking, finally finds Brian and Sydney's apartment, knocking on door.
Sydney answering
"Oh my goodness, look who the Cat dragged in...what up man?"
Tyrone
"Look, hate to rush the deal, but we are moving the medical lab this afternoon and we need your help, you up for this?"
Sydney
"Come in man...ah your going to have to front this with Brian?"
Brian coming down the stairs
"You rang Sir...let me guess...ah someone's moving and you need physical labor?"
Tyrone
"Yea, kinda sudden, Boss already got truck, wants to get me and the stuff out of there this afternoon...you guys available?"
Brian
"I just Love shit like this...I get to answer the all important question...do we have a choice?"
Tyrone
"Well no, but if you. pretend that you willingly volunteered then it won't make me feel so bad for making you do it in the first place!"
Sydney laughing
"I think that was the most logical thing I've ever heard you say..."
Tyrone
"Thanks...I have my moments...so can you meet me over at the old apartment, say about 1 o'clock?"
Brian
"Well, since we don't have a choice, there seems to be no wrong answer here, my mind is made up...we're coming!"
Tyrone
"Great...look, like to stay and hang, but I gotta go, later!"
Brian
"What a fucking idiot!"
"You rang Sir...let me guess...ah someone's moving and you need physical labor?"
Tyrone
"Yea, kinda sudden, Boss already got truck, wants to get me and the stuff out of there this afternoon...you guys available?"
Brian
"I just Love shit like this...I get to answer the all important question...do we have a choice?"
Tyrone
"Well no, but if you. pretend that you willingly volunteered then it won't make me feel so bad for making you do it in the first place!"
Sydney laughing

Sydney
"No shit..."
(Scene Switch)
Ext: Tyrone's Old Apartment-1 p.m.
Tyrone backing up U-Haul truck into back yard, starts loading it up with his personal stuff.
Brian and Sydney show up, walking around watching Tyrone going through his stuff.
Tyrone
"Hey, you guys gonna help or watch?"
Brian
"We don't need any help watching!"
Sydney
"Yea, I can watch everything from here!"
Brian
"We'll let you know if we need something!"
Tyrone
"You fuckers better start putting shit in the truck...we ain't got all day!"
Brian
"You seem to be doing just fine..."
Sydney
"Yea, excellent job...your like a pro at this huh...like league quality!"
Tyrone
"I'm going to league you in the ass if you don't come help me..."
Brian
"Okay, but let's share the load now, no cheating."
Tyrone
"Twisted-ass fuckers!"
Brian pointing to new Odyssey van
"By the way, did you like my new purchase?"
Tyrone
"Let me take a wild guess...you paid 10 G's for it?"
Brian
"Even, amazing guess!"
Tyrone
"Signed that check, drove it off the lot?"
Brian
"Named her, too!"
Tyrone
"Your rad man, what did you call her...it was a girl, huh?"
Brian
"Rose...blue like a rose...I'm loving it...man you got a lot of shit!"
(1 Hour Later)
The gang has just finished loading up the U-haul with his stuff and the medical clinic.
Tyrone
"All that's left to do is seal up the false wall, the bookcase door, and nobody (beading some caulk from a gun) knows nothing!"
Brian
"So, your just going to vacate, just like that?"
Tyrone
"We're going to ride out the rest of the lease...about another two months, that way...nobody suspect anything, nobody come lookin for me!"
Brian
"Your just not home..."
Tyrone
"Exactly!"
(Scene Switch)
Pulling U-haul truck up to the back of the new building on Loyala and 6th Street.
It's an old store (a clock shop) with a front glass showcase, painter's tarp draped over the edges.
Tyrone
"Whoa, look at the size of this place!"
Brian
"Looks like somebody could use a fresh coat of paint?"
Brian walking back, through several rooms, opening other back door back out to the courtyard and to the other side of a huge parking garage
"Sure beat the shit out of the old apartment, you could make a hotel out of this place!"
Sydney walking around in the front room finding a box of old clocks in it, seeing a coo-coo clock in there, he pulls it out of the box
"Bet this bird hasn't been wound up in a while."
He starts to wind it up by pulling braided chain through winding pulley.
Moves the hands to midnight, bird pops out.
Sydney
"Dirty Bird, don't look at me like that!"
Brian
"What do you think?"
Tyrone
"This is some new digs all right shit...we should be up and running by sundown, can you remember this place...how we got over here?"
Brian
"So, I assume you'll be wanting some guest for tonight?"
Tyrone
"No, give Rose her new assignment tomorrow night...I want to enjoy one peaceful evening just getting everything unpacked, maybe having a little sprucing up party...or in other words...leave me be okay?"
Brian
"By the way, you know all them extra wafers we made from those Bowling Bimbo's the other night...do we get any extra for those?"
Tyrone
"You mean, the one's you almost drained to death?"
Brian
"Well yea, thought there might be something extra for Sydney and me?"
Suddenly Mercedes shows up in back parking lot.
Tyrone
"Oh shit, I didn't know he was coming...ah, you two...go out the front!"
Brian
"What's wrong, we're big boys...don't think we can handle ourselves...what is he, royalty or something?"
Tyrone
"Yea, something like that...look man, you have to go...really man!"
Sydney trying front door
"Looks like it's all nailed up or glued, all I know is that this fuckers stuck!"
Brian
"Look man...don't crap in your pants, we'll come out through the other back door, come on Syd..."
All of a sudden they hear a voice (Ding Wing) behind them.
"Excuse me gentlemen, going somewhere?"
Brian turning around
"Oh, I'm sorry, you sort of snuck up behind me...ah I'm Brian and this is my associate Sydney here, and you?"
Ding Wing
"I am the CEO of this little chemical club, this gathering so to speak...wanted to thank you boys for your avid and impressive participation...oh, they call me D.W., how nice to make your acquaintance!"
Brian
"Likewise, so you are like the financier and operator, huh?"
Ding Wing
"And one of the principles and co-founders to this technology..."
Brian
"Co-founder...ah, where is your partner in the group?"
Ding Wing
"A most unfortunate sequence of misguided circumstances has brought dear George to a most painful demise I'm afraid...but time heals, I have forgotten over things that have occurred...no ill will toward his unthinkable passing...things happen you know?"
Brian hesitantly
"Of course, of course...life must go on, there's always another day, for most of us anyway..."
Sydney
"So, are we the lucky one's who help grease your checkbook?"
Brian's eyes roll back
"Sydney please, I'm sorry D.W. sir, please excuse my blatant friend here...coothe is not one of his better traits!"
D.W. laughing
"Oh, no harm done...he does seem a little spirited...perhaps that's the secret to your unique system of catch and release...you work well as you play off one another, never taking this nasty business too seriously...not to the point where you start to actually feel any remorse...is that a close assessment?"
Brian
"That's it D.W., you nailed it!"
Ding Wing
"Well, in that case, I can assure you..perhaps grease was a bit too blatant, lacking complexity, no...I would prefer that you think of yourselves as my magic oil of strength, oil of worship, the very busy gears of production, the vital strength that constitutes success...thereby making this progressive organization strong and surefooted...no my boys, grease simply does not bespeak of your devout importance!"
Sydney whispering to Brian
"He could have stopped at oil of worship..."
Brian to Sydney
"Talk about over-kill...gees?"
Brian out loud
"Well, we've got you all moved in...Tyrone I believe has got a few cables to hook up, and we will be bringing you a new client tomorrow night...once again, it was so nice to meet you...and also...good night to you Tyrone, bye!"
Sydney
"Yes Mister D...glad we could lubricate you!"
Tyrone sarcastically rolling his eyes
"Always the pleasure...till we meet again in the moon light hours my son!"
As Brian and Sydney get into Odyssey
Sydney
"Talk about giving me the weeby-jeebys, I feel like I need an oil change, yuk!"
Brian
"I'm sure he's quite a charming man once you get to know him, like escargot the first time... also remind me to never take you anywhere in the public...your worse than a child!"
Sydney
"I never said I had manners...when did I say I fit in...never said nothing about manners..."
Brian
"Lubricants...boy, that's a first!"
