Synopsis: On the lush alien world of Pandora live the Na'vi, beings who appear primitive but are highly evolved. Because the planet's environment is poisonous, human/Na'vi hybrids, called Avatars, must link to human minds to allow for free movement on Pandora. Jake Sully (Sam Worthington), a paralyzed former Marine, becomes mobile again through one such Avatar and falls in love with a Na'vi woman (Zoe Saldana). As a bond with her grows, he is drawn into a battle for the survival of her world.

JAKE (V.O.)

I better wrap this up. There's a funeral

tonight, and I don't want to be late. It

was someone very close to me.

WIDE SHOT, moving in across the concentric rings of people,

all plugged-in and softly chanting. MOVING toward the

center, over the figure of Mo'at, to hover above --

NEYTIRI, kneeling beside two FIGURES on the dais --

151.

JAKE and his AVATAR lie head to head. Human Jake is wearing

an exomask. Both figures are still, hands folded, covered in

translucent silken shrouds of ROOT-CILIA.

CAMERA CLOSES IN as Neytiri removes the mask from Jake's

human face. She gently closes his dead eyes with her

fingertips. Then bends and kisses him.

MOVE INTO CU on AVATAR JAKE as Neytiri's hand comes into

frame, stroking his cheek. TIGHTENING slowly to--

ECU JAKE'S EYES. Hold a beat, then --

They open.
