        Jack will give his version, during which Susanne will enter
        and listen.  /en9/ TIME CODE: 49:30 (note: Waitperson
        referred to as Brad henceforth: with understanding, this can
        be Brad or Brenda, depending on casting).

                        JACK
                So you believe what he told you or what?

                        LYLLA
                It's too soon to say -- do you agree with what
                he said?

                        JACK
                He knows better.  That crap about his dying
                parents, give me a break -- Brad's a cokehead
                from way back, he was doing this to get a good
                deal on his own blow, wholesale so to speak,
                not to save his--

                        WAITPERSON
                That's not true.

                        JUSTIN
                Gentlemen, one version at a time please.
                Brad, you told your story; now if you have
                anything to say, Jack, say it.

                        JACK
                What I could say would blow your mind.

                        LYLLA
                Are you telling us you have nothing to say?

                        JACK
                What I don't understand is, what's in it for
                me?

                        MATRE'D
                I plan to report this to the police--

                        LYLLA
                If that's the best way to go: that was the
                agreement.

                        MATRE'D
                I won't compromise the good name of this resort,
                or my reputation, or the reputation of the
                McMenamin brothers, or the board of directors, or-

                        JUSTIN
                You may not have to.  Jack?

                        JACK
                I don't have to explain anything to him.

                        LYLLA
                Jack, if you'd be cooperative, none of this
                will have to go beyond this moment.

                        MATRE'
                I haven't agreed to that.

                        JACK
                See there?  The guy's got a cop mentality and
                if you, man, think you'll going to frame me
                with using your precious resort to run drugs,
                then I say you're going to have to prove it in
                court.  I'm here for one reason and one reason
                only -- and that has to do with my sister, not
                with drugs.

                        WAITPERSON
                You're lying through your teeth.

                        JACK
                Hey, I'll catch you people in court, how's
                that?

                        JUSTIN
                "He who complains too much . . ."

                        JACK
                Think anything you want.  I know my rights.

                        LYLLA
                Jack, you're making this more difficult on you
                than it has to be.  If you're only a cog in
                the machine, so to speak--

                        JUSTIN
                He may be running the whole machine shop.

                        MATRE'D
                Whatever the case, I can't drop this.  As soon
                as this wedding party ends, it's my duty to report
                this -- and
                the names of all involved -- to the
                authorities.

                        WAITPERSON
                If you have to do that, I'm sorry.  I made a
                mistake.

                        MATRE'D
                I'll take that into consideration --
                especially if you tell the police what you've
                told us.

                        JACK
                I have a few things to tell the police myself.

                        LYLLA
                Then tell us, for God's sake!  I'm sure we can
                settle matters without going to the police.

                        MATRE'D
                I don't understand why you say that -- being
                an attorney.

                        LYLLA
                My fear is that there's much more here than
                meets the eye -- and that a premature
                investigation, by the authorities, would have
                the real culprits running and getting off scot
                free.

                        JUSTIN
                I concur.  I'd like to hear more about
                Maxine's role.

                        JACK
                So would I, as a matter of fact.

                        SUSANNE
                I couldn't get ahold of Helen, Justin, but I
                did run into Evelyn and she's overheard some
                things about the drugs on board.  Not
                involving Jack or any of the crew, though --
                involving Angelo and the male church member
                who brought the bride aboard.

                        JUSTIN
                Angelo?

                        SUSANNE
                Yes.  I forget the other's name.

                        MATRE'D
                Yang Wolf, if I remember correctly.

                        SUSANNE
                She overheard a drugs sale being arranged -- I
                think Angelo was the buyer.

                        JACK
                Who's he trying to buy from?

                        SUSANNE
                I'm not sure.  I got the impression, though,
                that Angelo and Wolf were in business together
                on this, Wolf was making the arrangements or
                something, for the sale to Angelo.

                        JUSTIN
                Cokescam.  The church has been accused of
                dealing in drugs -- some preliminary charges
                are in the courts in California right now.

                        LYLLA
                Yang Richard, the groom, is a lawyer -- he may
                know more about it.

                        JUSTIN
                Worth checking out.

                        JACK
                What happens if this Angelo guy is guilty,
                he's here to buy drugs?

                        MATRE'D
                The important thing is, who is supplying it?
                Brad?  Was he a buyer?

                        WAITPERSON
                I don't know, honestly.  I was just working
                for Jack.

                        JUSTIN
                And Jack isn't talking.  Which I am beginning
                to find very interesting indeed.

                        JACK
                Hey, I'm not a seller for Angelo, okay?  I
                don't even believe he's buying.

                        LYLLA
                Why not?

                        JACK
                I got reasons.

                        MATRE'D
                I have another candidate, or two rather: the
                groom and the Priestess.  I'm sure I recognize
                them from New Orleans -- where they were
                accused of dealing drugs.

                        LYLLA
                Now that's interesting.

                        JUSTIN
                Indeed.  Were they convicted?

                        MATRE'D
                They disappeared.

                        JUSTIN
                I have a question: where are the drugs now?

                        MATRE'D
                Brad has them.

                        WAITPERSON
                I gave the stash to Jack.

                        JACK
                  They're safe, don't worry about that. And
                nobody here is getting any either.

                        WAITPERSON
                If the church actually is involved in drugs,
                if there's an actual sale going, it'd be with
                their own drugs.

                        SUSANNE
                Involving Yang Wolf.

                        JUSTIN
                And possibly Maxine as well.  Indeed, by what
                I've heard just now, perhaps the entire church
                hierarchy.

                        MATRE'D
                Of course, this is all speculation.

                        LYLLA
                If you're worried about your reputation,
                then surely you want to find out if
                there are, in fact, more drugs hidden here.  The
                way to find out, I think, is to let this sale
                take place -- to see if we can get evidence
                that it's taken place.

                        JUSTIN
                We can't do that staying up here.

                        SUSANNE
                What if I tried to get drugs from Angelo?

                        JUSTIN
                He no longer trusts you -- that'd be too
                dangerous.

                        LYLLA
                I could try.

                        JUSTIN
                Perhaps.

                        LYLLA
                Or Jack could play into Angelo's hands -- if
                he were cooperative.

                        JACK
                I'm clean and free, man.  Count me out of
                everything.  Later.

        He exits, will go to A.  /ex2/ TIME CODE: 53:00

                        MATRE'D
                 What do you suggest we do now?

                        JUSTIN
                Keep our eyes and ears open -- and hope the
                sale takes place.

                        LYLLA
                I'll see what I can get from Angelo.  Justin,
                why don't you talk to Yang Richard about the
                cokescam case?

                        JUSTIN
                You got it.  Susanne, do you think Trudy might
                know anything about this?

                        SUSANNE
                I really doubt it.  Her concern is Maxine.

                        JUSTIN
                Who may be involved.  Why don't you stick
                around Trudy?

                        SUSANNE
                Okay.

                        MATRE'D
                How can I help?

                        LYLLA
                By trusting us -- we want to clear your
                reputation as much as you do -- because we
                have clients to protect.

                        JUSTIN
                Yours is one tough customer.

                        LYLLA
                Jack has always been his own worst enemy.
                He'll thank me later.

                        MATRE'D
                Well, thank you, all of you -- I'm not sure I
                understand what's going on but I'm not letting
                anyone out of here until I make up my mind
                about all this.

                        LYLLA
                Fair enough.  Shall we?
