Re: Paradise (Prometheus Sequel)
LOL! I like those even better than mine, dude... You know, as crazy as it sounds, we should start a thread with "If Characters Made Smart Choices" and do short funny skits like these.
WEYLAND (off camera) : Try harder.
DAVID: Very well, I will try introducing the black substance to one of the experimental animals we have on board to do tests on, in an isolation chamber like the one we have the head stored in. After all, trying it on a human would be stupid and might potentially endanger you, my creator, and we can't have that.
WEYLAND:
Good idea... and also in line with valid scientific practice and proper handling of biologically active substances, which you should have been programmed to do. After all, you seem to think you can pinch hit for a biologist.
DAVID:
I am also fluent in 6 million forms of communication, of course I can speak Bocci: it's like a second language to me.
CUT TO:
INTERIOR AMPULLA CHAMBER
The BIOLOGIST and the GEOLOGIST see movement in the black goo.
GEOLOGIST:
There's something alive in there!
BIOLOGIST:
I'll have a closer look...
GEOLOGIST:
No, you won't.
(drags him away protesting)
Something killed the Engineers in this place, and I'm betting those things were part of it. You can send in a drone later, but that door is staying shut as long as I'm anywhere around. Oh, and since I now know where we are, I ought to be able to find my way back to the others.
(later)
The reawakened ENGINEER confronts DAVID, who
speaks to the engineer in his own language:
(SUBTITLES)
He wants more life , *****R!
ENGINEER (replies in his own language):
(subtitles)
We made you was well as we could....the lamp that burns twice as bright burns half as long.
(tears david's head off)
DAVID: (to others) Better run like hell.
(they do. Except the two who were sane enough to bring guns. They riddle engineer with enough lead to make him a walking pencil.
He kills them, but the effort of killing them takes him too far away from the console, and he dies. )
with no one at the controls, the ship crashes.
The End.
