TRIACS (10)



WHERE'S THE BACK UP UNIT



ENT: BEN BROACH'S HOUSE-LAB-8 A.M.

BEN AND CLAIRE ARE PREPARING FOR THEIR TRIP TO SAINT JOHN'S, BUT BEFORE THEY GO, A FEW LAST MOMENT DETAILS


CLAIRE

"I don't know why you want to fool with this...it's beyond me?"


BEN

"For some reason, I just felt the urge to bring another one of these guys to life...I'm not trusting Siemens or the military...I want one for myself!"


CLAIRE

"Perhaps so Dear, but couldn't this wait till the trip was over?"


BEN

"No, this crystal will only stay active as long as you burn in the precise frequency, you have to catch it while it's still cold."


CLAIRE

"Something like that, huh?"


BEN

"This won't take long, just chill out my Dear!"

(scene switch)


INT: DALE CLEVER'S APARTMENT-LIVING ROOM

WITHOUT HIS DEVICE HE SCEME'S TO VISIT THE BROACH RESIDENTS AND SEE IF HE CAN GET THE EXTRA TRIAC BEFORE HE HAS TO DEAL WITH THE GENERAL'S WRATH

(1 HOUR LATER)

DALE PULLD UP TO THE BROACH RESIDENT, WEARING A SKI MASK AND HIS NINE MILLIMETER GLOCK IN HIS HAND

HE STARTS TO WALK AROUND THE BACK, BUT BEFORE HE DOES HE SEE'S THE BROACHES LOADING LUGGAGE IN THEIR CAR

HE APPROACHES THEM


DALE

"Okay guys, not fooling around here, I need that other Triac...I saw you with it, now turn it over!"


CLAIRE

"Dale, is that you...what's gotten into you?"

DALE STANDS SILENT AS HE RELIZES THAT THE SKI MASK WASN'T DOING ANY GOOD


BEN

"Not sure what your trying to do here, but it's really not going to do any good...we have it locked away!"


DALE

"Well, unlock it then, where ever you have it..."


CLAIRE

"Okay Dear (knudging him), let's go unlock the vault and give it to him."


DALE

"Come on, let's go inside, where is it?"


RON (under breath)

"The dummy?"


CLAIRE (under breath)

"Of course, you have the life one...right?"


RON

"So Dale, missing the prototype...did something happen to it?"


DALE

"Yea, something like that, it's a long story...what do you care, you got paid!"


RON

"Indeed we did, quite a lot more than I thought we were getting, your company is very generous with it's allowances."

ALL OF THEM WALKING INTO THE HOUSE


CLAIRE

"Would you like a bite to eat?"


DALE

"What lady...I'm trying to rob you?"


CLAIRE

"I'm sure you have your reason's, isn't that true?"


DALE

"Yea well, things happened and there wasn't anything I could do about it, just need something to bring to the lab!"


BEN (handing him dummy Triac)

"Well, here it is...are we all good now?"


DALE

"What is this, it feels a lot lighter than I remember?"


BEN

"Well, it doesn't have the batteries, Honey...do we have extra batteries?"


DALE

"They're nine volt transisitors right?"


BEN

"Yes, two...


CLAIRE

"For a total of eighteen volts...three hours of protection..."


BEN

"Or destruction..."


CLAIRE


"Whatever you like Dear!"


DALE

"Where are you going anyway?"


BEN

"A little field trip..."


CLAIRE

"He promised me a little R & R when we finished our project, we finished it...


BEN

"And I'm keeping my promise, is that okay with you?"


DALE

"Yea sure...okay, well I'll be going, thanks for not making this messy...you know, down in my heart, I really didn't want to do this...I know your really good people..."


CLAIRE

"We know we are Dear, good luck with that one, and please try not to lose anymore?"


BEN

"Yea, they're kind of pricey!"

STICKING HIS GLOCK IN HIS WAISTBAND, HE PROCEEDS TO GO BACK TO HIS CAR

ONCE HE SHUTS HIS DOOR, STARTS HIS ENGINE, BEN REACHES INTO HIS COAT POCKET FOR THE REAL DUPLICATE TRIAC


CLAIRE

"Ben really...you don't have to do this!"


BEN

"I know, but I want this to be a nice quiet trip...I'm planning on enjoying myself!"

AS DALE STARTS TO TRAVEL DOWN THE STREET, BEN ACTIVATES TRIAC CAUSING ALL THE BULLETS IN DALE'S GLOCK THAT'S IN HIS WAISTBAND TO ALL FIRE OFF, KILLING HIM INSTANTLY


CLAIRE LAUGHS BREIFLY

"What have you turned me into, people are just such idiots these days!"


BEN

"See who laughs last get's vacation time, too!"


CLAIRE

"Well, come on...we have a plane to catch...are you just going to leave him in the middle of the street there?"


BEN

"Well his car just jammed into that row of bushes there...I'm sure someone will find him!"


CLAIRE

"Oh look, I found something in my purse..."


BEN

"What's that my sweet?


CLAIRE

"Extra batteries for the Triac and Dale forgot to get his snack...oh darn!"


BEN

"Well, this one is working just fine let's hit the road, shall we?"


CLAIRE

"Can't wait to show you my sundress, your just going to Love it.

DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD TO THE AIRPORT

BAN AND CLAIRE BOTH SINGING AS THEY PASS UP DALE'S BLOWN UP CAR


"Here we come, Saint John baby, we have been waiting for you!!"
