The Fifth Element Page #21

PRESIDENT:

(beaming)

Yes.. Well? Where are our two heroes?

MACTILBURGH:

They were so tired from their ordeal that

we put them in the reactor this morning..

PRESIDENT:

I have 19 more meetings after this one

Professor..

PROFESSOR:

Of course.. Let me see if they're revived.

AIDE:

We go live in one minute, Mr. President.

Mactilburgh goes to the reactor and opens a small slot which allows him

to see what is going on under the blue shield.

Leeloo and Korben are naked, arms wrapped around each other, kissing and

probably engaged in hoppi hoppa.

Mactilburgh looks troubled.

MACTILBURGH:

I.. uh.. they need five more minutes,

Mr. President.

The President, pressed for time, looks over to his aide who in struggling

with a phone call.

AIDE:

No ma'am... I tried... No ma'am...

PRESIDENT:

Who is it?

AIDE:

Some woman... claims she's Korben's

mother...

PRESIDENT:

Give it here...

The President takes the phone and goes to the window.

PRESIDENT:

Mrs. Dallas, this in the President.

On behalf of the entire Federation,

I would like to thank...

MOTHER (V.O.)

Don't pull that crap with me, Finger...

I'd recognize that trash can voice of

yours in a dark alley during a rain storm.

You tell that worthless no account son

of mine he should plotz for the way he's

ignored his mother... when I think of all I

sacrificed for him...

284EXT. NEW YORK

Outside the lab we see the President through the window, holding the

phone away from his ear.

PAN slowly across Manhattan.

Credits Roll as TWO full rising silver moons ascend in the dark blue sky.
