85.<br />

The Camp Commandant and Beth lie up on the bed, watching a<br />

wall-mounted DIGITAL MONITOR. Beth has her FLUTE in hand.<br />

News reports show nationwide skirmishes between government<br />

and rebel forces.<br />

The Camp Commandant abruptly turns off the news broadcast.<br />

CAMP COMMANDANT<br />

You don’t need to see that.<br />

BETH<br />

Will we be O.K?<br />

CAMP COMMANDANT<br />

I most certainly hope so.<br />

Beth picks up her FLUTE and plays, in an effort to steady<br />

her nerves.<br />

FADE OUT.<br />

EXT. CITY SUBURB - NORMANDALE<br />

The dead trees are ABLAZE.<br />

The bodies of the FORWARD OBSERVER TEAM lie in scrub.<br />

SMOKE obscures the site.<br />

INT. CAMP COMMANDANT’S OFFICE - SLEEPING QUARTERS<br />

Beth stands at the head of the bed. She’s holding her<br />

FLUTE delicately in both hands, fingers posed.<br />

The Camp Commandant lies on the bed, hands behind his<br />

head, completely relaxed.<br />

BETH<br />

What’s going to happen? You’re<br />

in charge of The Island, right?<br />

CAMP COMMANDANT<br />

The camp has to go into lock down.<br />

The rebels have kicked off<br />

something and we just have to keep<br />

up appearances. For as long as<br />

we can, at least.<br />

Beth gets it. She puts the FLUTE to her lips. Starts to<br />

play.
