INT. RYPAN, THE EVIL ONE’S ABOVE-GROUND PALACE – DAY
INSERT: CLIP of RYPAN, the cosmic psychic vampire from EVIL SEED: PROJECT UTOPIA, PART 2 with his PUPPETS OF CHAOS. He is dressed in a BLACK SUIT and RED SHIRT. He has an army of TWELVE hand-picked international players, CEOs and the likes in DARK SUITS, in conference in his ELABORATE PALACE. They are sitting in POSH, OVERSTUFFED LEATHER CHAIRS. He is addressing them from a PODIUM at the head of a LARGE ROOM with a LONG TABLE of seated glorified slaves.
There are NUMEROUS BOTTLES OF RED WINE UNCORKED and HALF-FULL WINE GOBLETS sitting in front of each PUPPET OF CHAOS. Some of them are smoking CIGARS. There are CRYSTAL ASHTRAYS in front of the ones who are smoking. There is an ELABORATE WOOD CARVED CHESS BOARD AND PIECES in the CENTER OF THE TABLE and further on down the table is a WOODEN ROULETTE WHEEL WITH RAKE SITTING ON FULL-SIZE ROULETTE GREEN PLAYERS FELT, AND SIX COLORS of CHIPS, RED, ORANGE, GREEN, BLUE, YELLOW, AND WHITE.
RYPAN (THE EVIL ONE)
Gentlemen, there is to be an immediate crackdown on humanity’s renewed hope for lasting peace. All responsible parties are to be captured and disposed of accordingly.
PUPPET OF CHAOS #1
Gaia’s recent resurgence means trouble, Pephredo.
RYPAN (THE EVIL ONE)
My telepathic powers rule my twisted agenda—the formidable psychic vampire of the cosmos—for my very survival depends upon it. I have located the source of trouble—Carlin, Aife, and Rama.
