XANDER:

I was invited. What's your story?

PETRA:

I don't know who you are or where

you come from, but I don't like you.

You ask too many questions.

There's a big line outside the "ladies" and no line at the

"men's". Petra heads into the Men's Room.

Some DUDE whistles at her. She pushes him out of the way and

enters a stall. Xander leans on the sink.

XANDER:

Come on, don't front like that. You'll

put a guy right off you.

PETRA:

Don't even bother, X man, I'm not

your type.

XANDER:

That right? Why's that?

The stall door flies open and Petra marches out.

PETRA:

My chest is too small and my brain

is too big.

She shoves him to the door and stomps back to her stall.

Xander walks back out, shaking his head and laughing.

Across the room, Viktor shoves the D.J. out of the way and

puts on "ANARCHY BURGER" by the Vandals. The rave dance is

interrupted by the pounding punk beat.

YORGI:

Xander, check it out! The revolution

begins!

Viktor and Anders swiftly turn the dance floor into a violent

mosh pit. Xander can't help it, he actually likes these guys.

YORGI:

Let's get some air, man.

Yorgi and Xander head outside. A moment later, Kirill hurries

out another door.

EXT. PRAGUE RIVERFRONT - NIGHT

It's late. Yorgi and Xander stroll along the river.

XANDER:

You got a great set-up here Yorgi.

You really know how to live.

YORGI:

It's a beautiful town, Prague. It's

been good to me.

XANDER:

I've been here before, when I was a

kid. My old man was in the service,

we used to live on the Army base in

Hamburg.

YORGI:

You, an Army brat? I don't see that

one at all. Did you join the service

as well?

XANDER:

Hell no. My dad was a straight up

tin soldier. Somehow he pissed this

general off and got himself

dishonorably discharged. Had a court

martial and everything. The charges

were total bullshit, so he was sure

he'd get his name cleared, but it

didn't happen.

YORGI:

Connections and politics, it's the

same everywhere.

XANDER:

My old man, he bought into the system,

and it screwed him. So he swallowed

a bullet. Me, I don't believe in

nothing I can't see and touch.

The camera suddenly ZOOMS across the city, flying over streets

and houses until, half a mile away, it finds Kirill in a

window with his SNIPER RIFLE.

P.O.V. THROUGH SCOPE - Xander's head is in the crosshairs.

The scope pans over to Yorgi, who looks INTO CAMERA and gives

a small signal, calling off the hit.

BACK ON YORGI AND XANDER

Yorgi looks up at a "PRAGUE PEACE CONFERENCE" banner.

YORGI:

Next week these idiots are having a

peace conference here. What the hell

are they going to talk about? It's

the system itself that causes all

the world's problems. You're okay,

buddy. Come on, it's getting early.

They stroll off and Kirill stands down.

EXT. PRAGUE STREETS - SUNRISE

A flotilla of VEHICLES (Xander's GTO among them) drives

through the gate in a massive, stone wall. It's a big manor

house in the middle of town.

INT. MEDIEVAL MANOR - COURTYARD - PRAGUE - SUNRISE

The GTO, sedans, SUV's park in the courtyard. Xander sees a

row of MOTORCYCLES parked here as well.

Xander also sees a Guard hit a switch that LOWERS the HEAVY

WOODEN GATE.

Yorgi corrals a bunch of STRIPPERS he's brought home.

YORGI:

This way, girls, let's go!

He leads the whole troop inside.

INT. MEDIEVAL MANOR - HALLWAY - SUNRISE

As they go down the hall/Xander sees ROOMS FULL OF OFFICE

WORKERS and MAFIYA GOONS.

VIKTOR:

Diversified global operations. The

sun never sets on our empire.

Xander takes in WORLD MAPS, FAX MACHINES, BANKS OF COMPUTERS.

For all their screwing around, it's clear Anarchy 99 runs a

large operation.

INT. MEDIEVAL MANOR - MAIN HALL - SUNRISE

With leaded glass windows overlooking the river, this place

is beautiful. Inside it's done up more like the house from

MTV's "Real World", except trashed. There's cool fish tanks,

a pool table, PS2 on a flatscreen and spray paint and holes

all over the walls.

SERVANTS welcome them with food and Yorgi's SECRETARY gives

him important messages.

YORGI:

(sorting through

messages)

Not bad, yes? The original owners,

they just one day decide to move

out.

Anders starts pounding on a drumset. Petra kicks a soccer

ball at him.

PETRA:

Yeb vas, z'opa. Shut up!

Yorgi paws at a Stripper.

YORGI:

I've got meetings this afternoon,

I've got to get some sleep. Just

pick a girl.

XANDER:

That's alright, I'm kinda tired.

YORGI:

You want to insult me? This is my

hospitality. Pick one.

Xander points at one of the Strippers. She's wearing a

fashionable FLAK JACKET.

YORGI:

Good, now find a room to crash in.

Petra, show him.

The surly Petra opens a door, revealing a hall of doors.

Xander and Flak Jacket follow.

XANDER:

You gonna tuck us in?

She just gives him a nasty look, walks into her room and

slams the door. Xander scratches his head and picks a room.

The others shuffle off to their beds with their Strippers.

INT. MEDIEVAL MANOR - XANDER'S ROOM - SUNRISE

Flak Jacket is out of sight in the bathroom. Xander talks to

her while he gets undressed.

XANDER:

Listen, no offense, but I'm not in

the market right now, okay? You can

stay here, but let's not --

He trails off as she steps out of the bathroom. She's wearing

just a G-string and the flak jacket.

XANDER:

You don't understand a word I'm

saying, do you?

She just smiles at him sweetly and pulls his shirt off. She

looks at the ENGAGEMENT RING still pierced through his nipple

and gives a puzzled look.

XANDER:

Stupid, right? That's what I was

trying to tell you. I just got out

of this heavy thing...

She kisses him and lets the flak jacket fall (PG-13 style).

XANDER:

The things I have to do for my

country.

He gives in and starts making out with her.

DISSOLVE TO:

INT. MEDIEVAL MANOR - HALLWAY - LATER THAT MORNING

Xander sneaks out of his room and down the hail. Behind him,

we can see Flak Jacket asleep amongst the tussled sheets.

INT. MEDIEVAL MANOR - MAIN HALL - MORNING

Anders is snoring on the floor. Xander skirrs around him and

goes through another door.

INT. MEDIEVAL MANOR - OFFICE - DAY

Xander finds an office and starts going through the desk. He

finds a PALM PILOT and snaps a RECORDING DEVICE to the bottom.

In seconds he's copied everything on it. He moves on to some

drawers.

PETRA:

What are you doing?

He turns, sees Petra standing in the doorway with a GUN.

XANDER:

Looking for a phone book. I want to

call a cab. Unless you wanna give me

a ride?

She shuts the door, advances, staring him down.

PETRA:

Who are you?

XANDER:

We hung out last night, remember?

PETRA:

I also remember you drove your car

here. Who are you really? Make no

mistake, I will shoot you and not

feel bad about it. Who are you working

for?

XANDER:

Hey, take it easy. I'm just a dude

trying to make a buck.

She SLAPS him, hard.

PETRA:

Bullshit. I see you look at

everything, study everything, ask

questions. I know exactly what you're

doing. Empty your pockets.

XANDER:

You've got to relax, baby, you're

paranoid.
