Daniel - stop doing nonsense, I'm waiting for you in the bar - after 5 minutes you will not come - I will tell everyone that you are impotent, I will say that I found in your box Viagra that does not help you anymore!

Daniel laugh

Ben - you won’t do that Daniel ... I don’t .

Daniel - of course I won’t, because tonight you will lose your virginity with that ugly one that I left for you!

Daniel left the cabin and humming a strange song headed for the 3rd deck to the crew bar

Crew bar fter 15 minutes, we see Ben coming in.

Daniel, Ben and other people have a drink and something vividly discussing, all in a light alcoholic intoxication.

Music plays loudly, smoke from cigarettes everywhere. 3 new girls came to the bar , we see them from 5 meters

Daniel - well, they finally deigned to come(Daniel raised his both hands up – very loud whistle)

Bartender at the bar looks at them - oh, I have a new arrival with us, who are they and what is their name, who knows?

Daniel – forget about them , these two mine(he show with his hand on the left ) , and that one , pale , she is for Benny

Daniel welcome to a aboard ladies! , he opened his arms , looking to others , - ladies , you are very lucky to meet us here first!

The girls greeted and everyone exchanged names

All these time Ben was constantly looking at Scarlet.

We see them drinking alcohol and having fun

Having drunk fairly and having gathered courage Ben asked Scarlet.

Ben – do you want to take a boat trip, it's noisy here and smoky, I'll give you an excursion. This is really huge ship! – pause - if you don’t mind?

Scarlet - of course, today is my first day, I will be very glad to have a walk on this ship – second pause , Scarlet looks at Ben -

Should I be afraid of you?

Ben smiles and after drinking his whiskey takes her hand ...

Ben - you should be afraid of him – he pointed to drunk Daniel with shaggy hairs

Everyone laughs. Daniel waves to Ben and Scarlet and says

Daniel - Benny, let your hands rest for today!(everyone laugh harder)

Scarlet – what did he say? what does it means(she looks at Ben) – is that some kind of ship humorous I do not know yet?

Ben - do not pay attention, he is crazy drunk man!(he smiles and looks at everyone)Ben pointed Daniels chest , then he hug him friendly , - But I really love him – he is my first love on this ship(everyone laugh harder)

We see drunk Daniels face – go away ,you are not in my taste

Upper deck of cruise liner. 3 25 am. Deep night , we see sky full of stars

A lot of cruise liners on the sides. Harbour full of them.

We see Ben and Scarlet are on the upper deck. going up to the fence Ben looks at the scarlet – they both look at the sky

Ben - where are you from?

Scarlet - New Zealand, not far away from here(she show with her finger to the open ocean side , like New Zeiland in that direction)

Scarlet – and you?

Ben - well,according to my experience it will take about 2 or 3 years for you , I hope you understand that ?

Scarlet – well , I am young and single(she looks at Ben with a smile) , and I think I have a lot of time to see that all

We see them standing close and looking forward to open ocean

Scarlet – so , let's go down, the girls have already lost me , and it is too late for me. Tomorrow is my first shift on this ship, I should be ready!

Ben make a little smile on his face.

Ben – sure.lets go down

We see Ben and Scarlet went down to the bar, there were much less people there since the bar was already closing. Ben and Scarlet joined to the company of their friends, Daniel and Terry alredy gone.

After 15 minutes, the bar closed and everyone wandered into the cabins. Ben ask Scarlet to see her of to the cabin , but she denied his offer

Bent went to his cabin in opposite side of the ship

Ben lay down his bed and closed his eyes

Bens dream

Ben standing in a small jewelry shop , he went in and after five minutes watching jewelry he found very beautiful brooch in the form of a rose with different colour stones. Ben ask for seller to see her , and after he took it in his hand he pulls her out of sleep into the real world . Ben took it to his hand and try to understand what is it made of. After he decided the brooch was very good and made of real precious stones he decided to make a present for Scarlet at one of their meetings , he put it in a pocket

Next Day.Hong Kong city.

Ben and Scarlet have a day off together.they are coming down the ship with happy faces and talking about nothing.After long walk they found small café. Ben ordered 2 coffee , waitress bringing them 2 cappuchino on a tray

Ben – you know Scarlet , we both from another parts of these world and I know there can not be any serious between us , but I want to make a gift for you. Do not deny it please , I bought in for you

Ben took out from his backpack small box and gave it to Scarlet

Ben –its just a little souvenire . nothing seriously

Scarlet took this box and with surprised face and opened it

Her eye became wider and she touched her hand with her mouse

Scarlet – Ben , this is wonderful (she looks at him) pause – it is so expensive!

Ben did not give her A chance to deny

Ben – its just a gift.nothink more , no no , its just a custom jewelry!

At that moment Scarlet kissed him.

After 5 seconds kiss they took each other hands and hug each other, we see them sitting in a small café

7 pm , same day. Anthonys cabin

We see An old man sitting on the same armchair near stained glass window in his luxury cabin on deck 11.he looks forward

His face was very tence and he touched his lipr with his right hand fingers

Anthony could not believe that Ben could somehow pull an object from the virtual world into the real one, he simply believed that it was a coincidence. Once he decided to make sure he just asked Ben where he got this amulet

Anthony stood up on his feet and hurriedly went to the cabaret. He leave his cabin slapped entrance door , then he goes to elevator. He enter cabareth , we see written on the wall - Bar Cabaret. Deck #7

Now we see a performance in the cabaret .Darkness. Ben is standing behind the bar. Anthony comes up to the bar. Still, he doesn’t turn to the bar, he watches the performance for a couple minutes then he standing with his beck to Ben said him very clearly and loudly
