TRIACS (15)




HAVE TRIAC, WILL TRAVEL




JENNIFER'S SUITE-HOME OFFICE-2 P.M.-SAME DAY

JENNIFER IS CURIOUS ABOUT THIS THONG WHO JUST MYSTERIOUSLY CALLED UP ON THE PHONE, SO SHE CONTACTS DU MING TONG IN NORTH KOREA


JENNIFER

"Hello, Du Ming...you busy?"


Du Ming Tong

"This, Miss Jennifer, L.A., how are you, did you get success?"


JENNIFER

"Well, yes and no...look there is a friend of yours maybe, a Thong or TJ, does that ring a bell?"


Du  Ming Tong

"What he look like, name don't remember me?"


JENNIFER

"Well that's just it, I've just talked to him on phone, but he says he knows you!"


TONG

"Miss Jennifer, look...I know many people, places, names, nicknames, but can't be sure about this person right now, okay?"


JENNIFER

"Hmm, that's interesting, cause it is an uncommon name, so you would have remembered a name
like that I think, huh?"


TONG

"Oh yes, for sure...so do you have device, we ready to pick up...you pay for device as prescribed?"


JENNIFER

"Uh...yea, I paid for it as prescribed, it was a little messy, but yes, I have it in my possession."


TONG

"I contact Ben Lee, he be your new contact...you can transfer it to him, okay?"


JENNIFER

"Well, this might not be the best time to do that, I'm a little busy this afternoon."


TONG

"What you say busy, we give you ten million...we send you your cut...business deal complete, we part company, then we see each other down road...later time, okay?"


JENNIFER

"Look Du Ming, I'm kind of busy this afternoon, can we fool with this tomorrow or something?"


TONG

"No can do, we close deal today, in Santa Monica...Ben Lee he waiting for you across street!"

JENNIFER LOOKS OUT WINDOW THROUGH HER BINOCULARS AND SEE'S BEN LEE WAVING BACK, LISTENING TO CONVERSATION ON THREE WAY CONNECTION


TONG

"Ben Lee, he don't say much...he only good at few things!


JENNIFER

"What kind of few things?"


TONG

"He do collections and kills people, very limited in kitchen...only make Egg Roll and Pho...real nice guy though..."


JENNIFER

"Sounds romantic...look, Ben Lee...this is not a good time, I have a guest and a meeting tonight, please come back tomorrow, okay?"


TONG

"Miss Jennifer, weird how you call to check on friend when we listen to you all time, you play with your foot boy, you relish treating your men like dogs...I have no problem with your little games, but this is business...ten million we give you to purchase device, you get...say you got device, we want device now, won't take long...you can't go no where till we say, otherwise...Ben Lee, not so nice...you see that, hmm?"

JENNIFER

"Well, it's not in my possession right now, I need to go get it first!"


TONG

"Miss Jennifer, please...why make things so difficult, you too pretty to tear into little pieces, very, very painful to die like that...very messy...not get deposit back on cleaning fee, now you understand?"


JENNIFER

"Yea, well I sort of understood from the beginning, but since you've been listening the whole time, my closet is not the one here, it is somewhere else...and I have to be alone when I go there."

LONG SILENCE

TONG

"Okay, I tell you what...I give you two hours or Ben Lee find out truth in you, do not play game with me...tolerate nothing...get device or painful of consequence...we understand?"


JENNIFER

"Yea, we understand...call you back in a couple, and oh yea, never heard of Thong right?"


TONG

"Never heard, by Miss Jennifer..."

JENNIFER HANGING UP PHONE, NERVOUSLY GRABBING CLOTHES AND THROWING THEM INTO A SUITCASE, GRABS TRIAC OUT OF HER PURSE, NOTICING THAT THE BATTERIES WERE APPARENTLY DEAD IN THE UNIT


JENNIFER TALKING TO HERSELF

"Oh crap, who has these kind of batteries...nine volts...smoke detector batteries, what else can happen?"

ENT: FBI HEADQUARTERS-L.A. COUNTY-PREPARATION ROOM-3 P.M.

AGENT ELLISON, AGENT HORN, AND CHIEF AGENT BILLY SINCLAIR HAVE GATHERED TO COUNT OUT A MIX OF REAL AND COUNTERFEIT C-NOTES TO PUT IN THE FOUR LARGE SUITCASES

CHIEF BILLY SINCLAIR

"Okay, what you want to do with this type of amount is fill almost to the top with the counterfeit, then top the facing layer with the real packets...just in case they have a scanner or something...that was a good amount you gave her for the sale...nobody has a chance to count all this, probably just peek in there and see that it's present, good thinking Ellison!"


AGENT ELLISON

"Thank you sir, what else do we put together here?"


SINCLAIR

"We'll have a sniper on the roof and some plain clothes guys around you, a couple of guys riding bikes by the pier, it will be a mix, so you'll be pretty safe."


AGENT HORN

"The only thing you have to keep in mind is that she does have the Triac, so if she decides to activate it, our agents will have to stay far enough away from it's energy range...all the other agents have been briefed on the matter..."


ELLISON

"Just like that, we just set up the deal this morning...you guys don't play around, do you?"


SINCLAIR

"Well, that's why all our guys are trained for immediate combat, to execute in minutes when something of this kind of importance comes down...the military really wants this device back, and I want to make sure we don't let them down!"


ELLISON

"I'm impressed, you have a lot more situations down here, than they did up in Sacramento!"


SINCLAIR

"How is O'Brian anyway...the old man has been working that sector for ages?"


ELLISON

"Well, he's got the social media tycoons, he's got just a lot of people who push people around with their wallets, it's a little different, more rural situations, but crime is crime no matter where we breath!"


SINCLAIR

"Just a lot more space to breath up there for one thing, just wanted to tell you how excited we were when we heard you were transferring down here...it's a real pleasure having you lead the division..."


ELLISON

"Well, thank you sir...I really appreciate the warm welcome...now about Horn...little ruff around the edges is he?"


HORN

"Hey, I'm a quick learn...just haven't worked in the field a lot...I'll get there!"


SINCLAIR

"He makes a mean cup of Joe...stuff will bend your ears!"

EVERYBODY LAUGHING

(2 Hours Later)

EXT: SANTA MONICA PIER PARKING LOT-5 P.M.

AGENT ELLISON PULLS OVER TO THE PARKING POST WITH THE PELICAN SIGN ON IT IN THE BLUE DISCOVERY RANGE ROVER HE BORROWED FROM INPOUND

IN THE BACK SEAT HE HAS FOUR SUITCASES WITH FOUR MILLION REAL AND TWENTY ONE MILLION IN COUNTERFEIT HUNDRED DOLLAR BILLS

HE SITS AND STUDIES THE ROAD ADJACENT TO THE BEACH, LOOKING AT THE PARLIAMENT SUITES, NOT SURE WHERE OR WHAT DIRECTION SHE WILL MAKE HER APPROACH, JUST LOOKING FOR A GIRL WEARING A BLUE DRESS AND A HAT

(1 HOUR LATER)


JENNIFER WHO HAS TAKEN A SIDE EXIT AND WALKED ALL THE WAY AROUND THE BLOCK, OUT OF VIEW OF THE AWAITING BEN LEE, SHE WALKS AROUND GROUPS OF CARS SPOTTING ELLISON'S RANGE ROVER, SHE MAKES HER APPROACH AND KNOCKS ON PASSENGER DOOR, HE UNLOCKS IT AND JENNIFER HOPS IN


ELLISON

"And how are you young lady...ready to become fabulously wealthy?"


JENNIFER

"Yea, I think I could handle that...I see you have my luggage all packed up, where are we going?"


ELLISON

"You got my toy out of the closet?"

JENNIFER TAKES THE DEVICE WHICH IS WRAPPED WITH A SCARF OUT OF HER PURSE AND DISPLAYS IT


JENNIFER

"I would show you how it works, but somebody could get hurt...and on top of that, the batteries I think are dead...it uses them old style smoke detector nine volts, but trust me...it works!"


ELLISON

"I believe you, so where are we going...you've got four heavy suitcases and might not be such a good idea to just load them into a buggy and tool around..."


JENNIFER

"Yea, I know like a trendy bag lady with all the loot!"


ELLISON

"I have a little good news and some bad news..."


JENNIFER

"I do too!"


ELLISON

"Oh really, I'd like to hear your's first?"

JENNIFER PULLS THIRTY-TWO PISTOL FROM UNDER HER DRESS AND AIMS IT AT ELLISON


JENNIFER

"Need you to get out and start walking away, I need to use your vehicle for a while..."


ELLISON

"Thought we made a deal, I'll take you where ever you want to go, I'm no threat...I just want my toy!"


JENNIFER

"Well, I talked to Du Ming Tong and he doesn't seem to have any recollection of you TJ or Thong or whatever your name is, so I'm just assuming you could be anybody, now move!"

AS SOON AS ELLISON STARTS TO EXIT VEHICLE A MAN GRABS HIM FROM BEHIND

IT'S BEN LEE WHO SPOTTED JENNIFER AS SHE WAS GETTING INTO CAR

A FIGHT ENSUES AS HE KNOCKS THE GUN OUT OF BEN LEE'S HAND, THEY ARE BOTH GOING BACK AND FORTH WITH FULL RANGE OF MARTIAL ARTS BEING DISPLAYED

AS BEN LEE FALLS BACK, HIS HEAD SUDDENLY EXPLODES AS A DELAYED PERCUSSION IS HEARD FROM THE ROOFTOP SNIPER'S RIFLE, BEN LEE LAY DEAD

ELLISON TURNS TO SEE RANGE ROVER TAKING OFF, DRIVEN BY JENNIFER, SHE TURNS TO GET ON SANTA MONICA BOULEVARD, BUT IS CUT OFF BY SEVERAL SHERIFF OFFICE CRUISERS, SHE DOUBLES BACK THROUGH THE PARKING LOT THEN OUT ONTO THE BEACH, ONLY TO EVENTUALLY GET STUCK AFTER THEY CHASE HER ALL THE WAY UP TO MALIBU POINT

THE POLICE PULL HER OUT OF THE CAR AND HANDCUFF HER, AS ELLISON FINALLY SHOWS UP ON THE BACK OF A BEACH PATROL MOTORCYCLE, HE WALKS UP TO HER, AS SHE SPITS IN HIS FACE

ELLISON

"And we could have had such a good time together, too...now look, you went and spoiled it for all of us.

ELLISON LOOKING AROUND AT THE FAMED MALIBU BEACH HOUSES


JENNIFER

"I'll get you for this you bastard, you watch, I have friends...lot's of 'em!"


ELLISON

"Where your going, you'll have a lot of new one's, too...officer please book this beautiful young lady into the county Hilton...make sure to give her one our best suite's if we have one?"


ARRESTING OFFICER (LAUGHING)

"Right away Agent Ellison, we'll even bring her the martini cart with all the fixings.

AS THEY TAKE HER AWAY, CHIEF SINCLAIR AND AGENT HORN PULL UP IN UNMARKED CAR


CHIEF SINCLAIR

"So, this is the way you spend your spare time...playing out on the beach all day?"


ELLISON

"Yea, sorry boss...can't just sit the office all day, makes me edgy!"


AGENT HORN

"Did you bring any toys with you?"


ELLISON GOES INTO THE SAND TRAPPED RANGE ROVER AND PULLS OUT THE TRIAC

ELLISON

"Of course, here's my favorite one right here!"

THEY ALL THREE JUST STAND THERE FASCINATED BY THIS LITTLE DEVICE, NO BIGGER THAN A CAN OF VIENNA SAUSAGE

CHIEF SINCLAIR

"Hard to believe that something so small can cause so much havoc!"


ELLISON

"Well, I'm just thankful this didn't fall into the wrong hands...now that would have been havoc!"


AGENT HORN

"Yet...I have a feeling we need to guard this thing like the Hope diamond...everybody wants a piece of this thing..."


ELLISON

"What's the next move Chief?"


SINCLAIR

 "We have a search warrant for her apartment, see if we can find anything interesting, then maybe on to dinner...I don't know Ellison, what do you think?"


ELLISON

"There's four million real cash in that truck, let's go binge shopping...get everyone a toy...maybe two!"


SINCLAIR

"Hey, this is Los Angeles...four million doesn't go as far as you think...maybe some Laker's tickets, popcorn...!"


AGENT HORN

"All I know is that we're not out of the woods until we get this back to Palmdale!"


ELLISON

"Lakers tickets are that much, gees!"



SINCLAIR

"They get you with the popcorn..."


HORN

"And that doesn't even include the extra butter..."

THEY'RE ALL LAUGHING AS THEY DRIVE OFF
