WILT

Hold still you little bitch!

(Wilt finally pulls the knife out of Duke’s leg at which point Duke breathes a sigh of relief and lays sprawled out on the sidewalk. Lana runs out of the Licensing Office. Cut to a point-of-view shot from Lana as she sees Duke laying on the ground and Wilt holding the bloody knife. Cut to a shot of the three of them.)

LANA

What the hell is going on here!?!

(Duke sits up quickly to show that he’s not dead.)

DUKE

That crazy purple bitch just stole the map!

LANA

(Sarcastic) Oh no! Even the translated version we have back at home?

WILT

Wait. You have a spare copy of the map AND you’ve finished

translating it?

LANA

Totes do! I figured some extra precautions were necessary after hearing about everything you’ve been through so far. As for the translating, all we had left to do was get this legal business out of the way before heading over to pick up the Heart of Aphrodite. I wanted to surprise you but Duke getting stabbed works too.

WILT

That’s fantastic! Let’s go and finally end this nightmare!

EXT. – OBLEX’S STUDY – MIDDAY

(Cut to a shot showing the front of Oblex’s study surrounded by police cars and with caution tape preventing Duke, Wilt, and Lana from entering. All three have their backs to the camera while they look over the scene in front of them.)

DUKE

Well shit.

INT. – ANTIQUE SHOP – AFTERNOON

(Scene opens on a one shot of Venom looking over a shelf in an antique shop and wearing a new souvenir jacket. She picks up a small statue of a naked man and looks it over. Cut to a medium shot of Venom and the store clerk who is standing behind the checkout counter.)

STORE CLERK

Can I help you with anything?

VENOM

I can’t decide if this is tacky or my new paperweight.

STORE CLERK

Well just give me a holler if you’re buy’n. (Pause) So are you in town for the Festival of Love? It’s only a couple of days away.

VENOM
