What’s going on with Duke?
(Cut to outside the temple where Duke is getting into a limousine. The door to the limo closes and it drives off just as Wilt runs out chasing Duke and Lana runs out chasing Wilt.)
LANA
Wilt! What are you doing?
WILT
I don’t have time to explain but we have to get to Duke as fast as we can.
(Fade to black.)
INT. – SELENE’S DRESSING ROOM – SEVERAL MINUTES LATER
(Scene opens with Duke and Selene making out on Selene’s bed. Duke stops her and sits up on the edge of the bed.)
SELENE
Why did you stop?
DUKE
I think I should go.
(Duke gets up to leave but stops when Selene sings.)
SELENE
Oh no you don’t.
(Duke turns around and goes back to Selene. Suddenly the sound of someone slamming against the door is heard. Cut to a one shot of the door.)
WILT
Ow! Damn it!
(The door is slammed again and this time it swings open to reveal Wilt standing on the other side. Cut to a full shot of the room. Wilt runs into the room and Lana follows. Selene gets up to confront them but Duke stays on the bed, lost in a trance.)
LANA
Now will someone please tell me what’s going on!
WILT
Selene isn’t just a normal singer. She is a Siren!
LANA
Wait. You mean like the Greek legend?
WILT
Some men will abandon everything to follow a Siren. Their jobs, their families, they even sacrifice their own wellbeing. But the Siren never cares. Not as long as she gets what she wants.
SELENE
You mortals can be so irritating.
