KAZAN:

This room is green.

--------------------------------------------------------------------

Kazan begins to knock his head into the wall.

--------------------------------------------------------------------

QUENTIN:

Holloway.

--------------------------------------------------------------------

Holloway now looks at Kazan.

--------------------------------------------------------------------

HOLLOWAY:

Hi there.

--------------------------------------------------------------------

Holloway puts a hand on Kazan's forehead.

--------------------------------------------------------------------

KAZAN:

This room is green.

HOLLOWAY:

Yes it is.

KAZAN:

I wanna go back to the blue room.

QUENTIN:

Is it shock or what?

HOLLOWAY:

I think he's mentally handicapped.

KAZAN:

I like the blue room.

QUENTIN:

Jesus Christ!

LEAVEN:

He almost broke my neck.

HOLLOWAY:

Hey there, are you all alone? Do you wanna hold my hand, honey?

KAZAN:

Butter first, then honey, Kazan. Butter first then honey.

LEAVEN:

How did he survive?

KAZAN:

I wanna go back to the blue room.

HOLLOWAY:

There's lots of blue rooms. We'll find another one to you real soon.

LEAVEN:

This is just way too bizarre.

HOLLOWAY:

Will you just worry about your own numbers...

--------------------------------------------------------------------

Leaven looks molested.

--------------------------------------------------------------------

HOLLOWAY:

Go on, I'll look after him.

--------------------------------------------------------------------

Leaven points at the ceiling.

--------------------------------------------------------------------

LEAVEN:

Safe, obviously. Since he almost fell on my head.

HOLLOWAY:

Shall we go for a walk? Kazan, do you wanna go for a walk?

--------------------------------------------------------------------

As Quentin begins to crawl up to the door. Kazan gets terrified. He hits himself with the one hand on his head.

--------------------------------------------------------------------

HOLLOWAY:

Erm' Quentin. Let's not make him do the climbing thing right away.

QUENTIN:

Holloway!

KAZAN:

Holloway.

--------------------------------------------------------------------

The screen fades and next time we see something is in a new room where Kazan opens a new door.

--------------------------------------------------------------------

HOLLOWAY:

Could they have taken us all the way to New Mexico?

QUENTIN:

What are you talking about Holloway?

HOLLOWAY:

I'm talking about: "Where do you hide something this big?" It has at least got to fill something.

--------------------------------------------------------------------

Holloway stands walks over to Quentin and stands beside him.

--------------------------------------------------------------------

HOLLOWAY:

I'm sorry to shake your foundations Quentin, but you have no idea where your tax-dollars go.

QUENTIN:

Free clinic doctors?

HOLLOWAY:

Only the military industrial complex can afford to build something this size.

QUENTIN:

Holloway, what's the military industrial complex? Have you ever been there? I'm tellin' you, it's not that complex.

HOLLOWAY:

And how would you know from where you are.

QUENTIN:

What do you think these establishments is? It's just guys like me. Their desks are bigger, but their jobs aren't. They don't conspide, they... buy boats. No, this place is... Remember Scaramanga? The bad guy in "The Man With The Golden Gun". It's some rich psyco's entertainment.

HOLLOWAY:

Is that what you think?

LEAVEN:

Clear!

--------------------------------------------------------------------

Holloway crawls into the passage.

--------------------------------------------------------------------

HOLLOWAY:

Ok, you're a cop. Single bullet theory. Right on.

--------------------------------------------------------------------

As Holloway lands in the new room, she starts to lose her breath. It seems like she's being choken.

--------------------------------------------------------------------

LEAVEN:

Gas!

QUENTIN:

Holloway! Get back here.

--------------------------------------------------------------------

But Holloway stays where she is.

--------------------------------------------------------------------

HOLLOWAY:

It's ok. I just swallowed my button.

LEAVEN:

I hate this! I hate this!

QUENTIN:

Your boy's having a conniption sitting there.

--------------------------------------------------------------------

A door is being opened.

--------------------------------------------------------------------

LEAVEN:

It's like crème without coffee.

WORTH:

She needs a break.

QUENTIN:

She can do it.

--------------------------------------------------------------------

Holloway crawls into Kazan and makes him touch her hair. And then back to the other room.

--------------------------------------------------------------------

WORTH:

They don't look prime to me.

QUENTIN:

Is that your two bits worth, Worth?

WORTH:

Of course it's what is worth.

QUENTIN:

Well?

LEAVEN:

Well, he's right. Not prime.

--------------------------------------------------------------------

Quentin jumps into the new room.

--------------------------------------------------------------------

LEAVEN:

STOP! In front of you!!!

--------------------------------------------------------------------

A lot of wires or whatever is being shot down from the ceiling and the slowly surrounds Quentin, rotates and Quentin just jumps away before he gets split up into several pieces. But it wasn't without pain. Quentin gets cut on one of his legs.

--------------------------------------------------------------------

HOLLOWAY:

What is it?

--------------------------------------------------------------------

Quentin gets back into the room.

--------------------------------------------------------------------

QUENTIN:

SHUT UP!!!

--------------------------------------------------------------------

The door closes.

--------------------------------------------------------------------

LEAVEN:

I don't know what happened. it wasn't prime.

HOLLOWAY:

Quentin, hold still!

QUENTIN:

Somebody stop that rackets!

HOLLOWAY:

Worth.

QUENTIN:

Leave the boots.

--------------------------------------------------------------------

Worth joins Kazan to make him shut up.

--------------------------------------------------------------------

QUENTIN:

And shut the f***ing door!

--------------------------------------------------------------------

The door closes.

--------------------------------------------------------------------

QUENTIN:

I had a feeling about that f***ing guy. He knew about that trap.

LEAVEN:

But these numbers aren't prime.

QUENTIN:

Then your numbersystem failed, but he knew.

HOLLOWAY:

Knew what? How could he know?

QUENTIN:

You're the paranoid, think about it. His only function so far is to kick us when we're down.
