The Lost Tribe Page #2

Synopsis: While on their way to Asia to close a business deal, five friends (Anna, Tom, Joe, Alexis, and Chris) rescue a man that's been left to drift at sea. Injured and in shock, the stranger overrides the yacht's autopilot and attempts to change the vessel's course, but instead wrecks the boat on a rock and the vessel sinks. The castaways wash ashore on the beach of an uncharted island and attempt to contact the Coast Guard over the yacht's radio. Before the Coast Guard can arrive, the body of the stranger vanishes from the grave the other survivors had laid him to rest in. Needing some time to himself, Tom wanders into the jungle and is attacked by an unseen assailant. During the attempt to find Tom the next day Alexis is killed by the jungle's inhabitants and Chris is taken. Joe and Anna discover a nefarious plot by the Vatican to cover up a research team's discoveries on the island before Joe is killed be an assassin sent by the church. Anna is then left by herself to survive on the island

No. Let's gather what's left

and build a shelter.

Hey, Hey.

How did this happen?

It doesn't make any sense?

I thought you were standing watch.

I was. I don't know.

It could have been the autopilot.

I don't think so.

That auto pilot was state of the art.

Yeah, but those things

conk out all the time.

Conk out?

Yeah.

Storms or solar flares

they disrupt the satellite link up.

They go off the air.

Look, for all I know it could have been

stuck in the death stars tractor beam.

As long as the insurance company

buys it, I'm fine.

It'll be fine.

Trust me.

It's all good.

This is why the Dalai Lama says

to practice detachment.

So your not bound by the

shackles of material possessions.

It means we need to

learn to let go.

Yes

Hey Honey? I think the universe

trying to tell me something.

Hey Sherlock, the wood needs

be drier than that.

Sherlock?

We did that at school.

What does that mean then?

Watson is that you?

He doesn't have to call me

Sherlock.

Must have their reasons.

Perhaps you should have been keeping

watch instead of making stupid jokes.

And then we wouldn't be stuck at the

end of this world.

What do you think I am?

A puppet?

Hello?

Is he?

I think so.

You see?

I told you he had drowned.

Yeah, but ...

How did his body get here?

Now that we have identified the body,

can we go please?

We can't just leave him like this.

The smells going to get a lot worse as it rots.

And it won't be long till something comes by

looking for a free meal.

There is a dog running around here,

there's gotta be someone here.

Besides ...

We've gotta start thinking

about food and water.

But shouldn't we stick together

now, Tom?

No, someone needs to go.

If anything happens ...

Oh Wow.

Hello?

Hello?

What is this place?

It looks like some kind of

military site.

It works.

Damn!

My God. Gansus.

- What?

- Gansus research.

They sponsored my research project

last year on dna coding.

- At NYU?

- Yeah.

They're very well funded

by anthropologists.

And very well armed.

Give me.

Hopefully it works.

Works pretty good.

Yeah, it's trying to

find a signal.

There ...

I found it!

FIND THE REMAINING TEAM

AND TERMINATE:

What's going on?

Guys?

It makes no sense.

Why did they leave all of this here?

They must be coming back.

Guys? Hello!

Joe! Alexis!

Here.

Jesus, man.

Look.

- What?

- Look.

Hey doesn't our guy

wear this?

Yeah

He was here.

Let's go!

Hey Chris! Joe!

Tom! Over Here!

What happened?

I don't know.

We found it like this.

Mayday! Mayday!

Does anybody read me? copy.

Mayday! Mayday! Mayday!

Does anybody read me? copy.

When are they supposed to be here?

I don't know, Joe.

You heard them.

They lost the transmission.

Somebody or something

took that guy ...

and you want us to just sit around here and

doing nothing?

Please trust me.

We're gonna be ok.

OK?

Ok like your dead friend over there?

Oh yeah.

We could go see him,

but somehow he's gone!

Oh hey let's all go to my boat.

We can't.

Why?

Because it's gone!

But for our leader,

everything is ok.

Joe, I do not recall asking

to be your leader.

Not his fault, okay, Joe?

The guy went through the port hole

and crashed the boat.

- Anna!

- None of us could know that.

- That guy crashed my boat?

- Is she serious?

We don't know

if that's what happened.

She's laughing?

After that foolishness

solar flares and satellite links.

- After I take my chances with you?

- Stop!

What?

Tom!

I was trying to save time.

Fat lot of good that did.

I didn't know this was going to happen.

Don't go?

Look, we all understand.

We understand.

Lying is ok!

- Tom?

- Anna, please.

I just need some space.

Hello?

Hello?

Hello?

Tom?

Tom!

Why would he have gone in there?

He must have went back to the camp.

What? Why?

The equipment was still there.

He must have thought they would come back.

I don't ... I'm going.

Okay, let's go.

Now hold on a minute. Shouldn't

We wait here for him?

I mean the Coast Guard could

be here at any time.

Fine. Wait, if you want.

The jungle is a living breathing organism.

And you just breathe it in and it'll be ok.

Oh My God.

Tom?

Hello?

Tom!

So it was all like here, right Anna?

Everything, all the gear, everything

was here.

Boy, they didn't waste any time did they?

Where did they go?

The text message said to find

the remaining team and end the mission.

They must have come back and left.

And he's out there,

looking for them somewhere.

Yes, but how the hell can we find them?

That's like looking for Noel Gallagher

at Old Trafford, isn't it?

Hey Guys?

Over here.

What is it?

Looks like they might have gone through here.

If that guy was here, he

must have been in some kind of trouble.

We're gonna find out, aren't we?

Guys?

Oh my gosh.

Lovely.

What else we gonna find?

Chris?

There's something up there.

It's probably just the wind.

Guys, what's going on?

Everything Okay?

Yes

- Yes, fine.

- Can we go now?

Oh good.

Who is it?

Jesus Christ! He's here.

Oh My God!

What the hell kind of animal did that?

The sternums been split open.

No animal did that.

What's happening?

Oh My God.

What is that?

There is something up there!

I've had enough of this. I'm going

back to the beach.

You can't just leave, Chris.

You see that?

That's not normal! You said so yourself!

I'm going back to the beach to wait

for the coast guard.

like any normal human being,

rather than running around

playing George of the bloody jungle!

Ok he is right. We need to go back.

What if they don't show up?

And what if Tom is in trouble out there?

That's a risk I'm willing to take.

I'm sorry, but I'm going back. We don't

know what's going on!

You are unbelievable.

All this being a warrior goddess at one

with the universe bullshit ...

goes flying out the window

once the sh*t flies?

You're pathetic!

Let's go.

Tom

Hello?

Is anyone there? Hello

We need to catch that dog.

Tom?

Tom?

Chris, wait up.

Chris, wait up.

What happened to that yoga of yours love?

Maybe we should head back.

I'll tell you what.

I didn't ask to come along.

If you want to go back, jog on.

Unbelievable.

Damn!

It's all been erased.

I saw something.

There may be something here.

Yeah

Kansas is canceling

funding,

it makes no sense, given that

in the last three days ,,,

we've come closer to the truth

than we have in 300 years,

The rest of the team decided to leave

but I couldn't

I told him that I needed

another week ,,,

to finish up the

field reports ,,,

of the specimens we've

uncovered so far,

They agreed ,

And then it happened,

We found something! We found something!

There was no doubt in my

mind that this was it,,,

the answer to a question that man

had been searching for since the beginning of time ,,,

the missing link in our evolution,

The cranium was much larger

than I expected ,,,

and the eye sockets were small,

indicating a limited field of vision,

it conclusively proved that,
