    LEMNISCATE

    PART THREE

    'Dire Need'

    PAGE ONE

    One

    Up-high shot, looking down on the school room as

    Kurt is looking at the group and Don is looking at

    Midell.

    MIDELL

    This school has now been cut

    out from the rest of the cityby a high-dense carbon shield.

    Two

    Close in on Don, who's distraught.

    DON

    No! You need to remove that

    immediately. She's not sick

    because of Plararox. It's

    something else.

    DON

    And she's not just putting

    all the students in danger

    DON

    But you and me as well.

    Three

    A look at Midell and the group. Looks like high-levels suits from another world. Kurt is shown.

    MIDELL

    We have our orders. Besides,

    we know that it isn't Plararox.

    MIDELL

    She's sick because of something

    entirely different.

    KURTWhat?

  • 8/6/2019 Volume One - Part Three

    2/16

    Four

    A look at everyone, epescially Don and Kurt

    shocked faces.

    MIDELL

    A human virus.

    PAGE TWO

    One

    Inside one of the buildings. It has no floors and

    all the wall are covered with screens all the way

    to the ceiling. They are showing different images

    from people's lives. Thomas and Helena are in the

    center of the panel, looking up at a screen just

    above their head that reads: Ravengard

    They're each holding a blue package. The building

    is half-filled with people.

    VOICE

    Alpha Mezon just gave birth

    to four children. Congrats!

    Two

    A woman named Klora walks up the two.

    KLORA

    You pinks are just too beautiful!

    I'm so jealous of you.

    THOMAS

    Hi. I'm Tom.

    Three

    Close in on Klora.

    KLORA

    Thomas Quinn and Helena Grover.

    KLORA

    You're in our city now, honey, and

    we know everything.

    VOICE

    Krempa High Five just graduated.

  • 8/6/2019 Volume One - Part Three

    3/16

    Moving around. Klora has turned her head, looking

    at a woman, Teska, who's walking to her.

    KLORA

    The Fives. I know that class. Teska?

    TESKA

    Yes, endman?

    KLORA

    Sent digital flowers to class

    five and a Myer Light to Gordo

    for his accomplishment.

    HELENA

    Where do you want these packages?

    Five

    Klora points to a small place next to a big stage.

    KLORA

    Over there. But you can't

    leave just yet.

    KLORA

    Ravengard is about to start.

    Six

    Moving way back, looking at the building as a

    whole, all the screens have turned gray.

    KLORA

    You're going to love it!

    PAGE THREE

    One

    Don and Kurt are staring at Midell.

    KURT

    How do you know this?

    MIDELL

    The time-stamp for the moment

    Mala Theodora got sick and the

    moment these package weredelivered.

  • 8/6/2019 Volume One - Part Three

    4/16

    MIDELL

    They're the same.

    Two

    Close in on Don and Midell.

    DON

    No. You are wrong. Any bacteria

    from our world would have

    burnt up in the collapse.

    MIDELL

    Remind me again why you pinks

    are here.

    Three

    On Don, Midell and Kurt, who's in the center of

    the panel.

    KURT

    That's different. The Memphotamalia

    Virus was at the collapse. It

    wasn't spawn on Earth.

    MIDELL

    Yes, all of you keep saying that,

    but I have a sick girl with anunidentified illness.

    Four

    On Midell.

    MIDELL

    Something like this hasn't happened

    to us since the second wave.

    MIDELLNow, I'll say this nicely.

    Five

    Midell nods to the rest of the group. They begin

    walking towards Don and Kurt.

    MIDELL

    Do NOT come anywhere close

    to the door.

    Six

    The group has grabbed Don and Kurt and thrown them

  • 8/6/2019 Volume One - Part Three

    5/16

    another empty school room.

    MIDELL

    I want a full body scan and

    all her vitals now!

    Seven

    The door shuts and locks. Don and Kurt looks at

    each other.

    KURT

    If she's sick because of us,

    then...

    DON

    I know, years of work gone.

    Eight

    On Kurt.

    KURT

    Not just that. I don't think

    they'll let any of us leave.

    PAGE FOUR

    One

    The building is now filled with people and Klora

    walks on stage.

    KLORA

    Welcome everyone to the 248

    wave. We'll begin in just

    a moment.

    KLORA

    But first, we have visitorsfrom the Lemniscate Foundation.

    Two

    Everyone in the crowd is surprised.

    KLORA

    That's right. Human beings!

    KLORA

    Could you come out?

  • 8/6/2019 Volume One - Part Three

    6/16

    Three

    Thomas and Helena walk carefully on to the stage

    as everyone is holding up their hands to the two

    KLORA

    Let's greet them our way, shallwe?

    Four

    On the crowd. They're pointing their hands at

    Thomas and Helena and their hands begin flashing.

    VOICE

    Human beings are located in

    the Ravengard.

    Five

    Close in on Klora, Thomas and Helena. All the

    screens over their heads suddenly show pictures of

    Thomas and Helena. Helena is looking at Thomas.

    KLORA

    Keep it short.

    HELENA

    You do it.

    Six

    Thomas takes a step out on the stage, nervous as

    hell.

    THOMAS

    Hello.

    EVERYONE

    Hello Thomas Quinn!

    PAGE FIVE

    One

    On Thomas.

    THOMAS

    Um, well. At the collapse, when

    our worlds touched. For a briefmoment, life touched life.

  • 8/6/2019 Volume One - Part Three

    7/16

    THOMAS

    Bits for your world was forced

    together with bits from ours

    with a massive force.

    Two

    Moving around, seeing the crowd but staying on

    Thomas.

    THOMAS

    This created a passage for

    us to meet each other.

    THOMAS

    But it also created the Memphotamalia

    Virus.

    THOMAS

    Which is a very harmless virus

    that has the ability to

    grow in any environment.

    Three

    On Thomas, though with the screens in the

    background, showing the Memphotamalia Virus.

    THOMASAnd it both our world an

    excuse for an meet-and-greet.

    THOMAS

    That's why we are here. And

    why we are delivering Plararox.

    THOMAS

    So all of you can get a chance

    to see or friendly faces.

    Four

    Thomas turns to Klora as everyone in the crowd is

    staring dead-silent at him.

    THOMAS

    I-I guess that's all.

    SOMEONE FROM THE CROWD

    Is is true what they say about

    you pinks?

    Five

  • 8/6/2019 Volume One - Part Three

    8/16

    On Thomas, looking into the crowd at the person

    asking the question. Klora is walking between

    Thomas and the crowd

    THOMAS

    I don't know. What do they say?

    THOMAS

    That you like to be stupid.

    KLORA

    And that's all the time we

    have. I've just been informed

    that we can connect.

    Six

    Everyone in the crowd is looking up. Thomas has

    turned his head, looking up as the screens all

    colors, lines, waves and circles floating around.

    Helena is looking at Thomas.

    HELENA

    How do we connect?

    THOMAS

    By looking at that.

    KLORA

    Welcome to Ravengard! This

    upgrade has been brought to

    you by Valmaero!

    Seven

    As all colors, lines, waves and circles begin to

    float out of the screens, smashing together in the

    middle of the building, just above everyone's

    head, everyone starts dancing.

    PAGE SIX

    One

    Don and Kurt are looking at each other with the

    closed door in between them.

    DON

    They need to listen to me.

    KURT

    Endman is the highest authority

  • 8/6/2019 Volume One - Part Three

    9/16

    around here. They get anything

    they want.

    One

    Don turns around, taking a step out and looking

    into the school room. There's images ofLemniscates floating all over the room.

    DON

    What is this?

    KURT

    It's a project for school, but

    like Show 'n Tell back home.

    Two

    Don has walked up to one of the images. He pressed

    a button on one of devices showing a Lemniscate.

    VOICE

    In the known Galaxy, there

    are four different planets.

    VOICE

    Tolka, Ovrio, Baltza and our

    planet, Simpta.

    Three

    The four planets are shown floating around each

    other.

    VOICE

    These planets all exist at

    four different points in space.

    VOICEThey can observed from each

    planet during the night.

    Four

    Now you can see that the planet are actually

    floating in two circles.

    VOICE

    But due the Lemniscate, these

    planets also exist withinthe exact same point in

    space.

  • 8/6/2019 Volume One - Part Three

    10/16

    VOICE

    This is what makes the Highway

    possible.

    VOICE

    Four planets, existing at two pointsin space at the same time gives

    us the ability to walk from one

    planet to the other without even

    noticing we did it.

    VOICE

    How this phenomenon is possible

    is still unknown.

    Five

    On Don, who more distraught and confused then

    ever.

    DON

    (quietly)

    How? I-I don't understand.

    Six

    With the three planets in the sky barely visible,

    Thomas and Helena walk out from the Ravengard onto the street. Tons of alien are right behind

    them.

    HELENA

    What just happened?

    THOMAS

    I think our suits were just

    upgraded.

    PAGE SEVEN

    One

    Two female aliens named Fermina and Loka walk up

    behind them.

    LOKA

    Not just your suit. You too.

    LOKA

    Your lung capacity, your

    focus, your stamina. Everything!

    FERMINA

  • 8/6/2019 Volume One - Part Three

    11/16

    You just got smarter from

    partying!

    Two

    On Fermina and Loka, looking at each other.

    FERMINAWe should bring them to the

    beach.

    LOKA

    Yes. That'd be great. Everyone's

    seen you by now. It'd be

    awesome to show up with you two.

    Three

    Turning around, Helena as the center-piece andFermina to the right and Loka to the left.

    HELENA

    We have packages to deliver.

    FERMINA

    Haven't you figured out this

    city yet? Everyone's connected.

    FERMINA

    These packages will deliverthemselves.

    LOKA

    Can I get a Posspulates to

    this location?

    Four

    On Thomas and Loka.

    THOMASWhat's that?

    LOKA

    Transportation.

    THOMAS

    Why don't you use a teleportation

    pole?

    LOKA

    That's a bit too retro forour style.

  • 8/6/2019 Volume One - Part Three

    12/16

    Five

    Don is staring at the floating Lemniscate, totally

    gone.

    KURT (O.P)

    Don. Are you listening to me? Don?Six

    Don does a double-move. As he's shaking his head,

    he turns around and walks to the door.

    DON

    (yelling)

    Let me in! I need to see her

    vitals!

    PAGE EIGHT

    One

    Midell opens the door. Temple is looking at Don,

    worried.

    MIDELL

    Do you know what the punishment

    is if she dies?

    DONNo, but I know she's not sick

    because of us.

    Two

    Don walks up the girl and places his hand on her

    shoulder. He looks at Temple. Midell looks from

    the background at the rest of the group.

    MIDELL

    Arrest these two at once.

    DON

    The suit didn't detect the

    virus. Why?

    TEMPLE

    Because it's never seen

    that kind of virus before.

    Three

    Moving around.

  • 8/6/2019 Volume One - Part Three

    13/16

    DON

    OK. Set back. But that doesn't

    mean it's a human virus. I went

    through the collapse. I watched

    all my clothes burn. It can't be.

    TEMPLEThen what is it?

    MIDELL

    Do not talk to them.

    Four

    On Don.

    DON

    All her other vitals are fine.

    DON

    Which means that the infection is

    in a specific spot and doesn't

    interfere with the rest of

    the body.

    DON

    What did she complain about

    before?

    Five

    Moving around. Don closes his eyes.

    TEMPLE

    Her stomach.

    DON

    Inside her stomach now. I can't

    see anything wrong.

    DON

    Wait. There!

    Six

    Don is keeping his eyes close as Kurt looks

    worried on him and Mala. Temple is in the picture

    too.

    DONIt's an ulcer.

  • 8/6/2019 Volume One - Part Three

    14/16

    KURT

    How did she get an ulcer? How

    is she the first one to have

    an ulcer, ever?

    DON

    Wait.

    Seven

    On Don.

    DON

    There's something around the

    ulcer. Something small.

    Eight

    Close in on Don, he opens his eyes, saddened.

    DON

    Oh no.

    PAGE NINE

    One

    The beach. Hot sand. Great lake and way too many

    people either bathing or laying in the sand. Andalmost everyone is hugging and kissing each other.

    Thomas, Helena, Fermina and Loka are walking to a

    small crowd to the left of the panel.

    LOKA

    (shouting)

    Hello friends!

    FERMINA

    Look what we brought. The latestand the greatest!

    Two

    Helena and Fermina. In the background, a man is

    walking towards them, who Fermina is checking out.

    HELENA

    What are we doing here?

    FERMINAPassing the upgrade around, of

    course.

  • 8/6/2019 Volume One - Part Three

    15/16

    MAN

    Hello you.

    Three

    On Fermina and the man. Fermina kisses him on thecheek.

    MAN

    Thanks. Just what I needed.

    Four

    Thomas notices Helena smiling and looking at

    Fermina and the Man as they kiss even more.

    THOMASNow there's a smile I haven't

    seen in a while.

    Five

    Helena and Thomas kiss. In the background, Fermina

    has the man around his arm, looking in the crowd.

    FERMINA

    Who's ready to party?

    PAGE TEN

    One

    Everyone's looking at Don.

    DON

    I was wrong. It wasn't an

    ulcer. It's a burnt wound.

    MIDELL

    How can her stomach be burnt?

    Two

    Don is looking up at Midell.

    DON

    It was burnt by an organic material

    that her body couldn't fight against.

    DON

    It's all around her wound.

  • 8/6/2019 Volume One - Part Three

    16/16

    TEMPLE

    Can you save her?

    Three

    Don looks down on the girl, saddened.

    DON

    (quietly)

    I'm sorry.

    KURT (O.P)

    What is it? Why is she sick?

    Four

    Everyone in the room, all staring at Don.

    DON

    She was raped.

    DON

    By one of us.
