Cut to the sensors flickering on and off.
FREIGHT
The sensors.....they can detect the
sensors.
The cutters start their work.
FREIGHT
Wait! Stop! Abort! I know how to
send a signal.
The cutters continue.
Freight struggles in his bonds. The cutters move deeper,
blood spurts.
FREIGHT
WAIT GOD DAMN IT! WAIT. STOP. I
CAN STILL FEEL IT.
The cutters stop and in that moment he breaks free but the
injection arm hits him with a third dose of anesthetic. He
crawls down off of the table, but wobbles back and
forth. He is clearly bleeding.
He moves back and forth and lands in a hall way. Freight
leaves a trail of blood behind him.
INT – SENSOR ROOM – DAY
Freight taps into the computer rapidly. He just sets it up
to say S.O.S.
FREIGHT
S.O.S. God damn it! SOS.
The screen blips and seems to acknowledge the
command. Freight slowly slides backward in the chair,
unconscious.
SCENE – DAY – AIR LOCK – INT
A clean up crew comes on to the ship.
TECH 1
So do you think that this was just
a bug?
LEADER
A bug that says SOS?

FREIGHT
Alright. That’s it. Bob, I want
you to go away and don’t come
back. Even if I tell you
otherwise.
Bob slowly moves away. He stops once.
FREIGHT
Go Bob. That’s an order. And
don’t come back even if I scream
for it.
Bob moves away out of sight.
A pair of arms with cutters on them emerge from the
ceiling. They are very sharp. Another arm comes down and
injects Freight with Anesthetic.
FREIGHT
Wow. That’s some pretty strong
stuff.
Beat. The cutters start.
FREIGHT
Oh god. There has to be some other
way.
The cutters begin to cut and just breach a little bit of
skin.
FREIGHT
Wait! I can still feel that.
The cutters stop and the arm with the anesthetic moves up
and takes another injection.
FREIGHT
Wow. That is good stuff. I think
I can see new colors. I wonder if
I can telepathically communicate
with Kendra and Aaron. At least
they’re not starving to death,
knock on wood.
Freight knocks his hand on the table and gets an expression
of comprehension on his face.
The cutters start again.

FREIGHT
Think we can make it?
BOB

FREIGHT
Well, let’s give it a try.
BOB

SCENE - INT - DAY
Montage of both of them working on creating the harness and
trying it out.
Freight starts to strap himself into the chair. He has one
leg done up before he seems to have second thoughts. Bob
’watches’. Freight unstraps himself.
Freight goes through the rich people’s quarters and has Bob
scan them. A monetary amount appears on an account, which
goes up (Bob is carrying it) that goes up a bit each time
they enter a room. Finally, the number approaches one
million and Freight is resigned.
FREIGHT
That’s it. That’s will be enough.
Wide shot of Freight again approaching the med bay.
SCENE – INT – DAY – MED BAY
Freight begins to strap himself into the Apparatus. He has
some difficulty with this.
FREIGHT
Bob, you mind helping?
BOB
(Clicks twice.)
FREIGHT
Please Bob? This is the only way.
BOB
(Beat) (Clicks.)
They resume strapping him in to the chair. Finally once he
is secured, he talks again to Bob.

FREIGHT
How many calories did I lose?
SHIP’S COMPUTER
2400.
FREIGHT
WHAT?
SHIP’S COMPUTER
2400.
FREIGHT
That’s more than was in the
Shitbucket Pie.
Beat as the ship doesn’t say anything.
FREIGHT
Are you sure?
SHIP’S COMPUTER
2400.
FREIGHT
Shut up.
Freight slides with his back down against the wall,
muttering to himself.
SCENE – MED BAY - INT – DAY
Freight turns his head at Bob. Bob ’looks’ back.
FREIGHT
Well. (beat) I guess there really
isn’t any other choice then.
Freight walks over to a table, takes out a sheet of paper
and draws on it. He takes the piece of paper, tears it off,
and crumples it and then throws it away. He does this a
second time and throws it away.
A close up of the blue print reveals a set of elaborate
straps designed to put him into the Medical chair. He
stares at Bob.
