WILT
You didn’t answer either of my questions.
JASMINE
(Sigh) You’ve crossed paths with us because you refused to listen to me. If you get in the Mistress’s way I won’t be able to protect you.
WILT
Protect me? What the hell happened to peace and love?
JASMINE
The world isn’t as black and white as you seem to think it is. (Turns to walk away.) I wouldn’t expect you to understand.
/> WILT
Wait! (Pause) What is your name?
(Cut to a close-up of Jasmine as she stops.)
JASMINE
It’s Jasmine.
(Jasmine whips her cloak around her body obstructing the camera’s view. Cut to a close-up of Wilt who turns his head and blinks because of the cloak in his face. Cut to a full shot of the tent where Wilt is now standing alone.)
INT. – MUSEUM – AFTERNOON
(Scene opens on an establishing shot of the Lágnos Museum that slowly zooms in on the sign with its name on it. Cut to a full shot of the inside of the museum where a female tour guide is escorting a group of tourists along with Wilt and Duke around.)
TOUR GUIDE
Zeus, Poseidon, Hades, Athena, Hera, Apollo, Ares, Hephaestus, Artemis, Hermes, Dionysus, and Aphrodite. These are the twelve gods that sit atop Mount Olympus.
(Cut to a slow pan across the tour group as the tour guide speaks. Most of the tourists are overweight and wearing novelty T-shirts or carrying cheep souvenirs. There is also a young couple acting “lovey dovey” with each other and not really listening.)
TOUR GUIDE
They seldom interfere with the affairs of mankind however they have been known to come down disguised as regular people like you or me.
(Cut to a full shot of the tour guide and her group. The young couple starts getting loud enough to disturb the others.)
YOUNG MAN
No, I love you the most.
YOUNG WOMAN
Well that’s impossible because I love you the most.
TOUR GUIDE
Quiet down please. Now where was I, um… (Sees Duke at the front of the group looking disinterested.) Well hello there.
(Cut to a medium shot of Duke and Wilt as Duke smiles back at the tour guide and looks like he is about to approach her. Wilt pushes him to the side and steps forward.)
