MAXXAM
That wasn’t part of the plan.
XANDRELL (O.O.V)
I know. Our spies have located her
position but we can’t get a visual
on her. Once we step into the red
zone our men will be splatters.
We’ve resorted to hiding in the
purple leaves section.
MAXXAM
Well, we always knew this wasn’t
going to be easy. But now that her
husband’s been taken...
XANDRELL (O.O.V)
She might have to cooperate with
the Mutant Arbors.
MAXXAM puts another hand on his head and clenches his teeth.
In an abrupt movement he smashes down his fist onto the bark
of the tree.
MAXXAM
Which means she’s not going to
complete her mission! Everything
we’ve planned will be a complete
waste of time! How do we know she
hasn’t spilled top-secret
information we’ve discussed
already?
XANDRELL (O.O.V)
She’s a trained spy. She’ll know
what to do.
MAXXAM
She was supposed to be the one to
end the war! She’s our only hope!
XANDRELL (O.O.V)
Maxxam, cool it. I told you, she’s
been trained well. She’ll know what
to do. I know Jadrien. However much
she loves her husband, she won’t
let that distract her from her
goal.
MAXXAM sighs and slumps on his stool.
