Tough Love: Episode 2

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!
