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! CUT TO: 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! CUT TO: 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! CUT TO: EXT. SAND POINT IDAHO NIGHT INT. SAND POINT INN HOTEL 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. CUT TO: 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. CUT TO: EXT. ARYAN BROTHER'S COMPOUND 7:00 AM Scott, Basso and Mason are in a meeting with Smith and Alva. 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. SCOTT Why don't you go back to town with us, and we'll drop you off at the hospital. SMITH I'm fine, thanks for your help. SCOTT Your welcome. Basso, we must go. CUT TO: EXT. SAND POINT IDAHO NIGHT INT. SAND POINT INN HOTEL Scott and Basso are having dinner in the Hotels dinning room. SCOTT It's amazing how prejudice people really are. BASSO 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. SCOTT What makes people so prejudice?
