EXT. SANDPOINT IDAHO/LAKE PEND O'REILLE DAY
EXT. LARGE CABIN ON LAKE
INT. LIVING ROOM
Scott and Basso are talking to Jeff Mason, a man
in his early thirties.
MASON
Like I said Agent Scott, I was
looking out the window and saw
this big light go by and thought
it was a police helicopter. Then
it stopped at the campfire where
the Cooper family were having a
cook out on the beach. A green
light came down from the space
ship and picked them up from the
beach.
SCOTT
How long have you known the
family that was abducted?
MASON
They moved in about six months ago.
BASSO
Had you noticed anything strange
about them?
MASON
I'm not a nosy man by nature
so I don't think I talked to
them more than two or three
times, since they've been here.
SCOTT
You told the State Police it
was a family of four, the wife,
husband and two children.
MASON
That's correct Agent Scott.
SCOTT
Do you live alone?
MASON
My wife passed away from cancer
a few months ago and I'm now
alone.
BASSO
I'm sorry to hear about that.
SCOTT
Have you heard of the Aryan
Brothers?
MASON
Yes I have. They've come by the
house from time to time trying
to get me to join, but I'm a
writer and really don't have
time for that nonsense.
BASSO
Mr. Mason do you believe in extra-
terrestrials?
MASON
I think it's time for the charade
to end.
SCOTT
I beg your pardon? What charade?
MASON
I'm the Gate Keeper of Delphi Two.
SCOTT
Delphi Two?
MASON
We're a very small star about
five hundred light years from
you and are considered in the
galaxy as an "M" type planet.
I mean you no harm.
BASSO
(reaching for
the couch)
Excuse me while I sit down.
SCOTT
This kidnapping was a ploy to get
us to come here, wasn't it?
MASON
Would you have come otherwise?
SCOTT
Probably not, what do you want?
MASON
We're here on a mission of mercy
and what we're doing is of benefit
to your civilization. Why don't
you sit down agent Scott and
we'll talk.
BASSO
Is your appearance the way you
are, or are you cloaked in a
form pleasing to us.
MASON
Is it really important what
I look like?
SCOTT
Yes it is?
MASON
Very well, my real appearance
would offend you, just as your
appearance offends me.
SCOTT
I understand, what is your mission
of mercy?
MASON
You recently had a small meteor
fall in the vicinity of Hayden
Lake and some of it's tail was
spread over a hundred square
miles. The origination of the
meteor or asteroid, whatever
you chose to call it came from
a place in space contaminated
with the worst spore in the
Universe. Once it infects the
human body then an entire
planet can be contaminated and
within a few months all life
is terminated.
SCOTT
How did you find out about the
asteroid?
MASON
We track this kind of spore in
the universe and when we find
traces of it we move in and
destroy it and cure people
contaminated and when we're
done we leave and go back to
our galaxy.
SCOTT
You have the missing families.
MASON
Yes, they're undergoing treatment
as we speak. The treatment takes
thirty of your days to complete.
SCOTT
Can you give me an estimate of
how much longer we can expect
you to be removing residents.
MASON
We've just one more location
then we'll be done, but we
need your help.
SCOTT
You need our help?
MASON
The Aryan Brothers compound.
You may not know it but we've
been tracking all your movements
since you arrived in Idaho.
SCOTT
Tracking us, I don't remember
seeing anyone following us.
MASON
I don't think you understand,
we have the ability to track
you visually by attaching a
device to your personal
effects.
SCOTT
My personal effects?
MASON
You removed all your clothes
when you entered the sweat lodge.
SCOTT
You were there?
MASON
My dear Mr. Scott, you under
estimate us. We have a device
that makes us invisible. Would
you like me to demonstrate?
BASSO
Yes, would you please.
Mason rolls up his right shirt sleeve and
exposes a small device looking like a beeper
and touches a button. He's quickly encased
in a golden light and disappears.
MASON (V.O)
Convinced, agents Scott and
Basso?
SCOTT
Oh, without any doubt. Now what
do you want us to do?
BASSO
Excuse me Mr. Mason but were you
invisible when were taking showers,
and other personal business?
MASON (V.O.)
Please don't concern yourself agent
Basso, clothed or unclothed you and
Agent Scott appear to us on the same
level a snake appears to you, do you
hear what I'm saying? Your appearance
is very offense to us.
SCOTT
Yes, I think we understand.
BASSO
What do you want us to do?
Mason makes himself visible and rolls down his sleeve.
MASON
The only asteroid dust that
remains on your planet is in
the Aryan Brothers compound
and we have to make ourselves
visible to remove it. The
brothers have very sophisticated
security systems and rather than
cause damage to us and them, we
need for you to approach their
leader William Smith and persuade
him to let us do our job.
SCOTT
What if we cant convince them?
MASON
Then we will have no choice but to
take care of the problem with
the final solution.
BASSO
And what is that?
MASON
Terminate their life support system.
SCOTT
Life support system?
MASON
Remove all the Oxygen within the
compound.
BASSO
They will all die, women and
children too.
MASON
As some of your people have
said before, the needs of many
far surpasses the needs of
a few.
SCOTT
How much time do we have?
MASON
The window is closing for us.
We can only stay in this
environment no more than two
of your months. The family
we rescued last night will
be cured by the time we
leave, anyone from this
point on will have to be
terminated so the disease
will not contaminate your
planet. The sooner we remove
the asteroid dust containing
the spore the better chance
you'll have of saving one of
your earth mans life.
SCOTT
We'll start on it immediately!

EXT. SAND POINT IDAHO DAY
INT. ARYAN BROTHER'S COMPOUND
Scott and Basso are talking to William Smith in
his quarters.
SMITH
Let me see if I have this right.
You want me to let in someone to
remove a "spore" that's dangerous
to my people?
BASSO
Yes, that's right.
SMITH
What happens if I don't permit
the removal of the spore?
SCOTT
All your people will die.
SMITH
How did the spore get here?
SCOTT
A small asteroid landed at
Hayden Lake and some of the
asteroid dust fell on your
compound.
SMITH
You expect me to believe that
hogwash. How do I know you
wont just plant some kind of
listening device to monitor
all our activities.
SCOTT
You need to trust us.
SMITH
How many people are on the
team to remove the spore
and also how long will it
take?
SCOTT
The team is composed of three
technicians and it will take
about two hours.
SMITH
Are they F.B.I. agents?
BASSO
No they're not.
SMITH
Are they on contract to the
F.B.I.
SCOTT
No, they're outside people.
SMITH
Foreigners?
BASSO
Yes, you could say that.
SMITH
You mean their illegal aliens?
SCOTT
I'm afraid so, but they'll
not harm you.
SMITH
No way, no damn way. Where
are they from Mexico?
SCOTT
No, they're from Delphi Two
a small star five hundred
light years from here.
SMITH
I want you two to leave
right now, or I'll have
you thrown out!
CUT TO:
EXT. SAND POINT IDAHO DAY
INT. ARYAN BROTHER'S COMPOUND
Scott and Basso are talking to William Smith in his quarters
about the removal of the spores.
SMITH
I mean it, please leave the compound and if
you need to come in again have a search
warrant.
SCOTT
You don't understand, if they can't get in they'll
remove your life support system.
SMITH
My what?
SCOTT
They'll remove all of the oxygen in the compound.
SMITH
Your not kidding are you?
BASSO
We don't kid about things like this.
SMITH
What does the alien look like?
SCOTT
He looks like you and I.
SMITH
Before I make my decision I want to meet
this alien.
BASSO
(writing a note)
This is the address of Mr. Mason, we can meet
you there tonight at six o'clock.
SMITH
Ok, this better not be a trick
SCOTT
We don't play tricks Mr. Smith!
SMITH
Be advised I will bring two of my brothers
with me.
SCOTT
That's fine, but they'll have to wait out in the
truck, we don't want to spook him.
SMITH
Will he be able to show me some proof that the
spore exists and it's a threat to my people?
BASSO
We can't make guarantees for Mason so we'll
have to wait and talk to him in regards to your
requests.
SMITH
Don't you people feel uncomfortable working
with an alien?
SCOTT
I can't speak for my partner, but I feel ok, but
I'll do whatever is necessary to get the job done.
BASSO
Remember were talking about saving earth and
all it's people!

EXT. SAND POINT IDAHO NIGHT
INT. MASON'S LAKE CABIN
Scott, Basso and Smith are meeting with Mason.
SMITH
How do I know you're an alien, you look just
like us?
MASON
(rolling up his sleeve)
Watch carefully.
(he makes himself
invisible)
SMITH
Where did he go?
MASON (V.O.)
I'm right here in front of you Mr. Smith.
(He makes himself
visible again)
SMITH
Damn'st thing I ever saw. Now, what does
the spore look like?
MASON
I can't show it to you because it's too toxic.
SMITH
Where in my compound is it located?
MASON
It's a stone, the size of a golf ball and it's
located about two feet down in the south
west corner of the compounds outer
perimeter fence line.
SMITH
Ok, let me talk to my people and I'll get
back with you.
CUT TO:
EXT. SAND POINT IDAHO NIGHT
INT. SAND POINT INN HOTEL
Scott and Basso are in their suite writing a report.
BASSO
I must be dreaming.
SCOTT
Why do you say that?
BASSO
Here we are waiting for a "Skin Head" to give us
permission to have Aliens from another world
remove a spore that is much more dangerous
then a nuclear bomb! What if Smith says no?
SCOTT
I'm more concerned with what the assistant
Director is going to do with us when
he reads this report.
BASSO
Why don't we let him see Mr. Masons
disappearing act, that will convince him.
SCOTT
I don't think he can handle it!
BASSO
I don't think we can handle it! Why do you
keep rubbing the small of your back?
SCOTT
I have a problem with my sy-sy .
BASSO
Sciatic nerve?
SCOTT
Yes, that's it, why do you know anything
about it?
BASSO
Are you, regular?
SCOTT
Regular, what do you mean?
BASSO
Are you constipated?
SCOTT
What a question to ask me.
BASSO
The great sciatic nerve is liable to be pressed
upon by various forms of pelvic tumors.
SCOTT
Tumors?
BASSO
Let me finish. Forms of pelvic tumors giving
rise to pain along it's trunk, to which the term
sciatica is applied. Tumors growing from the
pelvic viscera, or bones, aneurysms of some of
the branches of the internal iliac artery, calculus
in the bladder when a large size, accumulation
of feces in the ...
SCOTT
Enough, do you have some ...laxative?
BASSO
I have some female laxative.
SCOTT
May I have some?
CUT TO:
EXT. SAND POINT IDAHO DAY
INT. ARYAN BROTHER'S COMPOUND
Scott, Basso and Mason are talking to Smith.
SMITH
I'm sorry agents Scott and Basso but my staff
said no.
SCOTT
In that case you leave us no choice but to obtain
a court order.
SMITH
You'll never get a court order. How's it going to
read? Permit aliens on your property to remove
star dust. Really.
SCOTT
Your people can't make it for two hours without
oxygen.
SMITH
Then we'll die.
SCOTT
What're they afraid of?
SMITH
They have certain items buried on the grounds
and they don't want to be charged with firearms
violation.
SCOTT
Were not the BATF, so we don't care about firearms
unless their used in the commission of a crime.
SMITH
What guarantees can you give us that item's will
not be dug up?
SCOTT
What do you have, semi autos that have been
converted to full-auto?
SMITH
I don't know what they've buried and it's best
I don't know.
SCOTT
I'll give you and your people immunity from
prosecution in writing.
SMITH
Ok, they'll buy that, you can tell the aliens they
have from five to seven tomorrow morning,
that's their window take it or leave it.
SCOTT
We'll take it. Do you want a letter of agreement
now or at five in the morning?
SMITH
I want it now.
SCOTT
Basso, give me your legal pad.
SMITH
I want agents Basso's signature as a witness
to this.
BASSO
I'd be delighted to sign the document.
SMITH
If any thing goes wrong, I'll not be responsible
for what my people will do to you and agent Basso!

Scott and Basso are in their suite talking to Mason on the
telephone.
SCOTT
(on phone)
Yes, that's right, five o'clock in the morning.
Yes, we'll be at the front gate at four-fifty, ok,
see you then.
(Scott hangs up the
receiver)
BASSO
Every thing ok?
SCOTT
Yes, but my back is bothering me again.
BASSO
You know one thing that'll help your back
situation is when you tie your shoes. Try
standing up and placing your shoe on a chair,
that way you wont strain your lower back
muscles.
SCOTT
I've been tying my shoes by sitting on the bed
and bending over all my life.
BASSO
That's why you have chronic back problems.
SCOTT
Ok, I'll try it. (A beat).
(looking at Basso)
Thanks for caring.
BASSO
Your welcome.

EXT. SAND POINT IDAHO EARLY MORNING
EXT. ARYAN BROTHER'S COMPOUND 5:05 AM
Scott, Basso and Mason are at the front gate of the
compound.
SMITH
I'm sorry agents Scott and Basso but it looks
like a no show for your alien friends.
Out of a mist of ground fog emerges two figures and the back lighting
of the full moon makes them look sinister and threatening. One of the
figures is a young woman that could pose on the front of any
fashion magazine.
SCOTT
Mr. Mason we were starting to worry.
MASON
We were held up, this is my medical officer Alva.
SCOTT
Alva, were agents Scott and Basso, and this
is Mr. Smith the person in charge of this
organization.
ALVA
My pleasure, I need to check all of you and make
sure you haven't been contaminated.
(she removes a small
device from her bag)
Don't be alarmed, I wont hurt any of you.
(she holds the device in
a manner which indicates
scanning)
Everyone is fine, but Agent Scott, you have a
problem in the lower back. It's a small tumor, I
can remove it in a minute if you like.
SCOTT
I'm ok.
SMITH
Where are your removal people?
MASON
We use "TRA'S", Toxic Removal Androids.
Two figures appear out of the ground fog and look like
astronauts carrying special equipment.
SMITH
What are they going to do, start looking for the
spore?
MASON
They already know where it is.
SMITH
My security manager will be here in a minute.
Oh yes here he is.
A young man in his early thirties walks up to the group.
SMITH
Dick, I want you to accompany these two
disposal technicians and stay with them at
all times.
The young man and the two androids disappear into the fog
surrounding the compound.
SMITH
Why don't we go wait in my office
and have some hot coffee.
SCOTT
Sounds like a good idea.
BASSO
(looking at Alva)
What method do you use in the removal of
tumors?
CUT TO:
INT. ARYAN BROTHER'S COMPOUND 5:05 AM
Scott, Basso and Mason are sitting around a table in the cafeteria.
ALVA
In response to your question on medical
procedures. We use a device called an
Internal Foreign Tissue Extractor or (IFTE).
BASSO
Is their any pain associated with the removal process?
ALVA
None, I can demonstrate by removing the
tumor from your associate.
BASSO
Scott, go ahead and let her remove the tumor.
SCOTT
It's easy for you to say cause it's not your body.
ALVA
The device breaks down the tumor to a jelly like
substance then a small hole is made where the
jelly like tumor is sucked out. It takes about
two minutes.
SCOTT
No pain?
ALVA
No pain.
SCOTT
Ok, do it ....I can't stand the pain anymore.
BASSO
Scott, your such a baby.
Alva starts the medical procedure and tells Scott
what she's doing, step by step.
ALVA
(spraying a small part of his
lower back)
First I'll spray this antiseptic on the part of the
skin where the tumor will come out. Then I
place the IFTE on the spot turn the laser on
and that's it.
BASSO
Your done? That didn't even take a minute.
You could sure put a lot of doctors out of
business here on earth.
ALVA
How do you feel agent Scott?
SCOTT
Fantastic, absolutely fantastic! No pain, and
what a RELIEF!
ALVA
I need to have all of your people examined by
me to see if any have been close enough to the
spore to be infected.
SMITH
I'd like to wait till the spores are removed.
ALVA
As you wish.
SMITH
Where is your space ship located.
MASON
Our Star Ship is in a cloaked orbit around
your earth.
SMITH
What planet are you from?
MASON
I'm from Delphi Two.
SMITH
Delphi Two?
MASON
We're a very small star about five hundred light
years from you and are considered in the
galaxy as an "M" type planet.
SMITH
Who's responsible for the contamination of the
asteroid?
MASON
We think it was a spore found on a planet that
exploded near the outer edge of this galaxy and
carried for millions of years on the asteroid.
SMITH
On Delphi Two, do you have just one race of people?
MASON
I don't understand?
SMITH
You know, do you have some ..black, brown ,
yellow or?
MASON
All of our people are the same color.
SMITH
And what color is that?
MASON
Translucent.

ALVA
I've examined everyone in your compound
except you Mr. Smith.
SMITH
Go ahead. Did you find anyone contaminated?
ALVA
(scanning Smith with a
medical device)
Everyone is clean, but you have a problem.
SMITH
I've been contaminated?
ALVA
No, but the scan has discovered one of your
arteries is almost blocked, and your within
hours of a heart attack.
BASSO
Which one?
ALVA
Aneurysm of the ascending aorta, in the situation
of the sinuses of valsalva, and it's affecting
the anterior sinus. The aneurismal sac is ready
to burst into the cavity of the pericardium.
BASSO
What your saying is ....he will drop dead!
ALVA
Yes, I'm afraid so.
SMITH
I'm going to die!
BASSO
Is there anything you can do for him, Alva?
MASON
I'm afraid our time is up.
BASSO
Alva, can you do something?
ALVA
Yes, but it will take more than two minutes, and Mr.
Smith will have to be anesthetized
SMITH
Forget it, I'd rather die than have an illegal
alien cut me open.
MASON
We must go Alva, our time is up!
SCOTT
Smith, don't be a fool, let her save your life!
SMITH
No way!
MASON
We must go!
Mason and Alva walk away from the others and are
captured by a green light from a small shuttle craft.

He'd rather die than have an "Illegal Alien"
work on him.
SCOTT
We have to notify the law enforcement
agencies we contacted and give them
the final disposition of this case.
BASSO
I did that while you were taking a shower.
SCOTT
How did they react to your statements?
BASSO
As we expected. The State Police said they
hope they never have to call us again. The
Sheriff at Priest Lake was relieved it wasn't
any of the local Indians.
SCOTT
By the way, I received a call from Sand Point
Memorial Hospital that Smith was checked in
an hour ago with chest pains.
BASSO
I'm sorry to hear that.
