DUKE
Hey! We need that!
MISTRESS
Stop looking for the heart Duke Butchmann! We have need of it and our cause is far more just than yours. Now my disciples, (Waves her hand to signal the other disciples.) disperse!
(All of the Disciples of Aphrodite exit and the alarms continue to blare. Cut to a medium shot of Wilt and Duke as they look at the display case with disappointment.)
WILT
Sorry man.
DUKE
(Sigh) It’s
not your fault. Come on; let’s get out of here before the cops show up.
WILT
Wait! (Picking up the small pedestal.) What do these markings look like to you?
DUKE
Holy crap! We need to take this to someone who can read it!
INT. – OBLEX’S STUDY- NIGHT
(Scene opens with Lana sitting at a table, going over a map and making marks on it. She stands up, still looking intently at her work, and takes a sip out of a glass of water. Then Duke tries to burst in the room but the door stops partway because of its chain lock. This sudden noise startles Lana and she spills the glass on her shirt. She turns to look at him angrily.)
LANA
Damn it Duke! You got me all wet.
DUKE
I have that effect on women.
(Lana puts her hand on the door getting ready to slam it shut. Duke sticks his arm in carrying the pedestal and tries to get further inside. As they talk Oblex wanders into the room.)
LANA
Goodbye forever!
DUKE
Wait! I found a treasure map. Right here!
OBLEX
Did someone say treasure map? (Snatches the pedestal out of Duke’s hand.) Theé mou! It’s true. Duke, Wilt, how would you two like to work for me?
LANA
What!?! But Sir, they don’t even have an archeology degree.
OBLEX
