#Detritus; “You are an evil Insect.”

April 15, 2020

INT. COURTROOM – VERSA GALACTIC COURT – PLANET VERSA – DAY

John and Morgan stand in front of the judge with a lawyer and the Prosecutor.

John turns to Morgan, she shrugs. John turns to the Prosecutor.

JOHN

“Pardon me? Children of the variable code. What does that mean?”

Prosecutor ignores him. John turns, looks up at the judge.

JOHN

“Your, Honor. We don’t know or understand what, children of the variable code means?”

Judge stares at John and Morgan expressionlessly.

JUDGE; “Your kind knows and practices, evil.”

JUDGE; “Like pathetic insects.”

JUDGE; “Evil epitomized.”

John and Morgan appear insulted. Morgan stares at the Judge, her face grows angry.

MORGAN; “No! You don’t know us! You sir are a, liar!

John stares at the Judge. He appears determined, angry. He peels his coat off.

JOHN; “Well your honor. Pardon me If I break things!”

JUST THEN

John’s body expands, displays massive muscles. He roars loudly.

JOHN, “Rrrrrrr!!!”

Court guard steps forward.

John, drops to a knee, spins with his leg extended out, knocks the guard of his feet with it.

John rips a long neon-tube-light off the wall. Throws it at the Judge like a spear. The long-neon-tube penetrates the Judges chest.

The Judge and Courtroom explode into a ball of fire.

INT. COURT – BACK-HALLWAY – DAY

John and Morgan run as fast as they can on a multi-colored floor, they appear scared.

INT. HUMMER (moving) HIGHWAY – PLANET VERSA – NIGHT

O.S. (off screen) accelerating Hummer engine.

John, in the drivers seat, both hands on the wheel, drives, appears focused. Morgan sits in the passenger seat. They both look at the multi-colored rainbow-like roadway out in front of them.

John and Morgan look down at the yellow-button. She presses it.

Morgan turns to John turns. She appears to admire him, smiles subtly.

MORGAN

“Well Mr. muscles, that was pretty impressive back there.”

John smirks, turns to Morgan.

JOHN

“We were in trouble. Plus they really pissed me off.”

He turns to Morgan

JOHN

“Doesn’t look like we’re gonna find justice or a solution out here. We gotta get back home.”

Morgan nods in agreement.
