THE PHANTOM OF THE FILM:

((The phantom looks over at Guy Raphaelson, uncertain whether or not he should guide him to the table.))

**I'm not sure who he is now, but he was once a talented marketing advisor for Un Ltd, a corporation intrigued by the marketing possibilities made available by the film. I found him bound and gagged within the storage chamber I was telling you about. I am not entirely above kidnapping, but binding and gagging are just a little too much for me. No one can sing when gagged. If he will just eat or drink something, I'm sure he will soon be back to his normal self.**

The HIGH PRIESTESS:

** Now that you mention it, it has been extremely quiet on the Marketing front lately.  Poor Guy!  Who would have treated you so cruelly?  Sit down and eat something and tell us all about it.  We should call Mr. Indapaddock at once!  He must be frantic with worry for his fiance. **

((While THE PHANTOM urges GUY to tuck in to a plate loaded with pate, cheese, cold meats and fruit, the HIGH PRIESTESS leans over to the EMPRESS OF EVERYTHING))

** Darling, there's nothing I'd like more than to have a cozy tete-a-tete and trade Diva tales and bra sizes,  but you know how subplots are...they can pop up and bite you in the arse quicker than you can say Cher in a shoe store. **

Empress of Everything



Looks to me like his hands are still tied. Here, darling, let me help you.

GUY RAPHAELSON:

**I'm Guy Raphaelson, and I'm afraid I'm not quite able to respond to people as I once had. I have always had some mental and concentration difficulties, but over the past few days...... well, things have changed a bit. In order to keep from losing my sanity in the darkness I-I-I found myself repeating various marketing strategies and financing formulae over and over again in my head... That was good, because it kept those other disorganized aspects of myself from gaining hold, but now they won't stop. At this very moment I am calculating the variable interest rate of a 20-year mortgage. And I -**

((Guy stops momentarily as the Phantom accidentally drops a plate of fruit slices and caramel dipping sauce on the floor.))

**Thirty-eight and four ounces.**

((Guy shakes his head.))

**I'm sorry.... where was I again... mortgages?**

((Guy shakes his head as if muddled and looks down at the ground.))

THE PHANTOM OF THE FILM:

**How silly of me, ladies. I seem to have already ruined our little feast.... I will order some more. This time, perhaps I can handle the plate without these satin opera gloves. Why did I decide to wear opera gloves to a film, I haven't quite figured that out.**

((The Phantom removes his stark white gloves revealing the badly scarred flesh beneath.))

**Oh, try not to think of that. There are worse things in this world... Speaking of which.... Guy, you really must eat something.**

I have to drive up to Wyomin' because I doubt his ol' truck would make it down to Texas.
