84. EXT. CITY SUBURB - NORMANDALE (NEXT EVENING) A Rebel FORWARD OBSERVER TEAM look out over Matiu/Somes Island, concealed amongst dead trees. A LASER RANGE FINDER sits in the HIDE, pointing towards the island. An OLD JET RANGER helicopter flies over the Rebel position. It is blowing BLUE SMOKE. Despite having civilian markings it carries ROCKET PODS. On the side of the Old Jet Ranger is the stencilled words ‘Puff the Magic Dragon’. INT. BARRACK BLOCK (NIGHT) The Friendly Guard stands on duty as if nothing has happened. He has left his HELMET on the bunk. He talks to Mabel. Beth hears her name and goes to him FRIENDLY GUARD Yes Ma’am. That’s what the C.O. said. Requested her especially. Mabel turns to a perturbed Beth, who is more confused than ever. Mabel shakes her head. MABEL I really don’t think she should-- BETH Look Mabel, I’ve just got to act as if everything is normal. He wants a bit more flute, so I play. MABEL Beth... you don’t know what-- BETH Who does? Day to day. I survived The Well. He didn’t hurt me after all that, did he? MABEL I guess not. INT. CAMP COMMANDANT’S OFFICE - SLEEPING QUARTERS
85. The Camp Commandant and Beth lie up on the bed, watching a wall-mounted DIGITAL MONITOR. Beth has her FLUTE in hand. News reports show nationwide skirmishes between government and rebel forces. The Camp Commandant abruptly turns off the news broadcast. CAMP COMMANDANT You don’t need to see that. BETH Will we be O.K? CAMP COMMANDANT I most certainly hope so. Beth picks up her FLUTE and plays, in an effort to steady her nerves. FADE OUT. EXT. CITY SUBURB - NORMANDALE The dead trees are ABLAZE. The bodies of the FORWARD OBSERVER TEAM lie in scrub. SMOKE obscures the site. INT. CAMP COMMANDANT’S OFFICE - SLEEPING QUARTERS Beth stands at the head of the bed. She’s holding her FLUTE delicately in both hands, fingers posed. The Camp Commandant lies on the bed, hands behind his head, completely relaxed. BETH What’s going to happen? You’re in charge of The Island, right? CAMP COMMANDANT The camp has to go into lock down. The rebels have kicked off something and we just have to keep up appearances. For as long as we can, at least. Beth gets it. She puts the FLUTE to her lips. Starts to play.
