Yang Wolf arrives and now joins Maxine at the bar.
/en12/ TIME CODE: 31:00
YANG WOLF
Champagne, please. You're not drinking?
YIN MAXINE
Not when I'm pregnant.
YANG WOLF
Right, I forgot.
YIN MAXINE
You don't contribute to the sperm bank?
YANG WOLF
Haven't, no.
YIN MAXINE
I think the Reproductive Center is the most
important activity in the church.
YANG WOLF
We keep busy in so many areas, actually. Hard
to keep track of all the stuff the church is
up to. I had hard enough time keeping the
wedding ceremony straight.
YIN MAXINE
It's your first wedding?
YANG WOLF
Right.
YIN MAXINE
I thought you'd done one before.
YANG WOLF
What difference does it make?
YIN MAXINE
You don't have to get nasty about it.
YANG WOLF
Sorry -- I got things on my mind.
YIN MAXINE
I know you do.
YANG WOLF
What I got on my mind is none of your
business. You keep that straight, and we'll
get along fine.
YIN MAXINE
You don't have to bark at me -- I'm on your
side.
YANG WOLF
I don't need you anything but quiet,
understand?
YIN MAXINE
We made a deal -- don't you trust me?
YANG WOLF
Not when you stick your nose into business
that has nothing to do with you.
YIN MAXINE
Jack has to do with me -- and with you, too, I
think.
YANG WOLF
I don't know what you're talking about.
YIN MAXINE
Of course you do. You're afraid Jack will
nose in on your business. Bad enough the
press is snooping around, saying the church
deals drugs. It's a very big affair in L.A.
Cokescam, the papers are calling it.
YANG WOLF
How come you know about L.A.? I thought you
were from the bay area chapter.
YIN MAXINE
Our law offices are in San Francisco. I work
as temporary help sometimes, it's all they
talk about in the office, whether or not
there's a bad apple in the church or whether
it's just the usual harrassment.
YANG WOLF
And what's the consensus?
YIN MAXINE
Oh, I'm not sure there is one.
YANG WOLF
Well, just make sure you don't give anybody
any ideas.
YIN MAXINE
All it takes is one bad apple. Trudy, for
example.
YANG WOLF
If you got something to say about Trudy, say it.
YIN MAXINE
Some of the best families are into drugs. I
know, I used to work for one, right here in
Portland. Drugs were everywhere. Jack deals,
I'm sure you know about that -- and maybe
Trudy is one of his best customers. Maybe
they both belong in jail.
YANG WOLF
How come you never brought this up before?
YIN MAXINE
I didn't put two and two together til I saw
Jack here at the wedding.
YANG WOLF
You want to frame Trudy, is that it?
YIN MAXINE
Both of them. I loathe the entire Brodey
family. If there's a scapegoat from the cult,
it would make your business much easier,
wouldn't it?
YANG WOLF
I don't like you talking about my "business."
YIN MAXINE
I can help you, is what I mean.
YANG WOLF
Maybe you can, maybe not. I'll have to think
about it.
YIN MAXINE
Jack surely has cocaine on him tonight.
YANG WOLF
What if he doesn't?
YIN MAXINE
It's unthinkable he wouldn't.
YANG WOLF
You seem to have been around more than I
thought.
YIN MAXINE
Very streetwise, as a matter of fact. You
wouldn't think so, given my artistic talent.
Most artists are snobs. But I'm very
streetwise. I know more dirt than you can
imagine.
YANG WOLF
How'd you get into the church?
YIN MAXINE
I joined to be a mother.
YANG WOLF
Sure you did.
YIN MAXINE
It's true.
YANG WOLF
Maybe I believe you, maybe I don't.
YIN MAXINE
You're a very suspicious person.
YANG WOLF
Comes with the territory.
YIN MAXINE
Talk to Jack yourself, why don't you? He
doesn't hide his true nature very well. For
someone like you, he'd be a pushover. He'd
probably tell you he has drugs if you asked.
He's not very clever at all.
YANG WOLF
Like he might sell me some?
YIN MAXINE
I bet he would. Why don't we find him?
YANG WOLF
You figure on coming along?
YIN MAXINE
Just to point him out to you. Or have you met
already?
YANG WOLF
No, we ain't met.
YIN MAXINE
Then shall we?
They leave to find Jack. /ex11/ /ex12/ TIME CODE: 33:30
