full shot of the airplane on the runway as it takes off and flies away.)
INT. NEW JERSEY AIRPORT – A FEW MOMMENTS LATER
(Scene opens with a shot of the Mistress from behind near the entrance of the airport. She begins walking forward slowly and the camera follows her. As she gets close to the other people in the airport they stop to stare at her. Most of them look confused and step out of the Mistress’s way. Cut to a tracking shot of the Mistress from the front as she makes her way through the parting crowd. Cut to one of the disciples of Aphrodite sitting at a table in the food court. She is dressed in non-suspicious attire. She turns her head and sees the Mistress then removes her disguise to reveal the purple cloak underneath. Cut back to the tracking shot of the Mistress. The first disciple comes into frame and begins walking at the Mistress’s side. Cut to a second disciple standing post in disguise at a nearby newspaper stand. She is pretending to read a newspaper until she sees the Mistress and also strips down to her purple cloak. Cut back to the tracking shot as the second disciple takes her place on the other side of the Mistress. As the tracking shot continues more and more disciples appear from the crowd until the Mistress has somewhere between ten and twenty behind her. A security guard quickly runs up in front of them and holds a hand out to gesture that he wants them to stop. Cut to a one shot of the guard as he talks.)
AIRPORT GUARD 1
Hold it right there!
(A metallic sound is heard and a throwing knife flying in from off-screen strikes the guard in the chest. Cut to a tracking shot of the Mistress from behind. She calmly walks past him as the guard falls to the ground. As she makes her way to the hanger where the airplanes are stored another guard comes in from the right.)
AIRPORT GUARD 2
Hey!
(Without even bothering to look the Mistress throws another knife at him and he falls. Another guard comes in from the left and meets a similar fate. Finally the Mistress arrives at the hanger doors. One last guard appears from behind the door and holds a gun up to her head. Cut to a one shot of the guard.)
AIRPORT GUARD 3
End of the line b-
(The last guard suddenly collapses revealing Jasmine who knocked him out from behind. Cut to a medium shot of a pilot approaching his plane when the Mistress steps in front of him.)
PILOT
(Nervously) You’re not supposed to be in here.
MISTRESS
We need to borrow a plane.
(Cut to black.)
INT. LÁGNOS AIRPORT – NIGHT
(Scene opens on a montage of scenery from the island of Lágnos. We see establishing shots of beaches, architecture, sculptures from a museum, and finally a sign saying “Welcome to Lágnos”. Then we see Duke’s plane landing on a runway. Cut to inside of the airport where Duke and Wilt are entering the lobby after exiting the plane. Duke is holding a travel guidebook which he occasionally looks through. Wilt is talking on his cell phone.)
DUKE
Good ol’ La… (Looks down at the book confused.) Something or other airport!
WILT
No mom I’m not on “The Drugs”… (Pause) Look I’m just going on a little impromptu vacation with Duke… (Pause) Yes I know he’s an asshole… (Pause) No I couldn’t have called you. They make you turn your phone off… (Pause) I gotta go. I’ll call you later.
DUKE
Dude you are so whipped.
WILT
(Sigh) So now what?
DUKE
(Flipping through the guide.) Did you know that Greece is the most sexually active country in the world?
WILT
Duke!
DUKE
(Looking back up.) What?
WILT
You’ve risked our lives, you’ve had us abandon everything back home, and you’ve draged me to some random island in a different freaking hemisphere! So, when I ask you what our plan is please tell me something at least a little reassuring.
DUKE
Well I still have no idea where the Heart of Aphrodite is… BUT! I decided to start our search on this island for two reasons. First, it was the first flight to Greece that I saw available.
WILT
And the second reason?
(At that moment they walk near a sales stand set up in the lobby. The salesman notices them and starts to call them over. Cut to a shot from the side as Duke and Wilt approach the stand. The salesman always appears happy and excited no matter what he says.)
SALESMAN
Get your souvenirs for the upcoming Festival of Love! We got T-shirts, hats, and of course condoms! Fun for the whole family! It’s going to BLOW YOUR MIND!
WILT
Oh my god.
DUKE
The Laggny Festival of Love.
SALESMAN
It’s pronounced Lágnos!
DUKE
Yeah, I’m not going to remember that. Anyway, this festival is one of the craziest, most epic parties on earth. Everybody gets laid. Maybe even you.
SALESMAN
This is the last place you’ll be able to use your American money so don’t be stingy now!
DUKE
Ya wanna a T-shirt?
WILT
I-
DUKE
Don’t worry. (Holding up a five dollar bill.) This one’s on Abraham Lincoln.
(Duke ignores Wilt’s complaints while buying two “Festival of Love” T-shirts from the salesman. Cut to a medium shot of Duke and Wilt as Wilt tries to talk to Duke.)
WILT
You mean to tell me that we don’t have a single lead? How are we supposed to find the Heart of Aphrodite like this? Are you even listening to me?
(Cut back to the side view of Duke, Wilt, and the salesman.)
SALESMAN
Are you talking about that magical stone that grants wishes!
(Wilt pushes Duke to the side to get closer to the salesman.)
WILT
You know about it!?!
SALESMAN
Everyone on Lágnos knows that legend!
WILT
Where can we find it?
SALESMAN
I’m pretty sure there is some reference to it in the museum near here! You should also ask Danny at the local bar! He knows a little bit about everything!
(Cut back to the medium shot of Duke and Wilt. Duke is putting on the Festival of Love T-shirt which looks much too tight.)
DUKE
See? And just like that we have two leads. Now you can take that stick out of your ass and be cool like me. Well, not like me but you get what I’m trying to say.
(Wilt sighs and walks off-screen. Cut to next scene.)
INT. HOTEL ROOM – NIGHT
(Scene opens on a shot of the door to a hotel room from the inside. The door opens and Duke and Wilt enter the room. Cut to a full shot of the room as they each make their way to their beds.)
DUKE
Alright, we’ll crash here for a few hours then hit the museum in the morning. (Pause) Wow. That felt weird to say. (Duke jumps onto his bed and puts his hands behind his head like he is relaxing.) C’mon, don’t just stand there. I betcha I can find some Greek porn channels on this T.V.
WILT
Actually I think that I’m going to go out for a while. I just spent over ten hours on a plane with you, which is more Duke than anyone should ever have to put up with.
DUKE
Gee Wilt, I didn’t know you were starting your period already. Do you want me to check and see if I have any spare tampons in my purse?
(Wilt looks as though he is about to tell Duke off for a moment but instead starts walking back to the door.)
WILT
I need a drink.
DUKE
Wait. What am I supposed to do here all by myself?
(Wilt leaves Duke all alone in the room. Duke looks depressed and bored for several seconds. He eventually sighs and picks up the phone on the table next to his bed. He dials and it rings for a while before a voice is heard on the other line.)
r /> PHONE
Welcome to the Dirty Girls Live Sex Hotline. Connecting you to horny sluts from all over the country. We assure you that your call is very important to us. Please hold.
(Elevator music can be heard coming from the phone as the scene fades out.)
EXT. LÁGNOS AIRPORT – NIGHT
(Scene opens on an establishing shot of the airport with a plane landing in the distance. Cut to the front entrance as the Mistress walks out of the building. Close-up on the Mistress’s face. She smiles then cut to black.)
INT. HOTEL ROOM – A FEW HOURS LATER
(Scene opens on a shot of Duke still talking on the phone while sitting on the bed.)
PHONE
Mmm, tell me more Big Spender.
DUKE
Well, she accidently called me the other day but we didn’t talk much. Ever since then I’ve just been kind of…
(Duke hears someone knocking sloppily and turns his attention to the door.)
PHONE
What is it Baby?
DUKE
I’ll call back later.
(Duke hangs up the phone and walks over to the door. He opens it and sees Wilt, drunk and leaning against the door frame.)
WILT
Yay! You got the door open.
DUKE
Why didn’t you just use your room key?
WILT
I… I think I swallowed it.
DUKE
Dude, are you drunk?
WILT
Pfft. Yeah.
(Wilt suddenly bursts out into awkward laughter. Duke looks confused for a second but decides to join in laughing too.)
WILT
Wait! Stop laughing. I forgot I’mm mmmad at you.
(Cut to a tracking shot of Wilt as he storms past Duke and over to his suitcase and starts putting things in it. He mistakenly puts hotel property in along with his belongings as he packs.)
DUKE
What are you doing?
WILT
Packing!
(Duke walks into frame and camera cuts to a medium shot of the two as they talk.)
DUKE
Why?
WILT
Because! (Stops to think for a moment as if he forgot.) I’mm llleaving you.
DUKE
You probably shouldn’t be making any decisions if you can’t even say “I’m” right.
