INTO VIEW:
DAVIS-SUE HART walks in. She’s the CEO/Owner of CELEBRITY TABLOID based in Florida, rival to THE RAIDER.
CHARACTER NOTE: (DAVIS-SUE, lesbian, is the female TRUMP, rich powerful version of DONALD. STYLED BLOND HAIR, late thirties, sexy and struts her stuff in a wealth of attitude. She is in incognito in the warehouse. She is wearing a Big FLOP HAT and DARK SUNGLASSES and LONG, BLACK GLOVES. She is carrying a briefcase.)
DAVIS-SUE
(in a low tone)
Devora, is the job done? I hope it is. The board members of my CELEBRITY TABLOID will have my ass if they find out. I am taking a big risk being inside this bestial cock pit. The stench of the Swamp Mafia churns my gut. The caviar I just had for lunch isn’t happy! I’ll remind you I don’t want to do this again, so it better work—THE RAIDER is finished!
DEVORA RIVAS
(looks over her shoulder both directions)
I laid the paper trail. Those invoices inside the illegal cigar crates will implicate THE RAIDER and Cuba. You’ll have your CELEBRITY TABLOID free of the competition. I’ve put a pretty Spanish plan in motion. Cuba is going to pay. Speaking of pay, Davis-Sue don’t you owe me $35,000? I’ve got bills to pay, goddammit!
Davis-Sue hands Devora the briefcase of money.
DEVORA RIVAS
(unlatches the briefcase)
Go have a glass of champagne, Davis-Sue.
DAVIS-SUE
Don’t open it in here, for Christ’s sake! Don’t worry—it’s all there. I’m out of here—CHRIST!
(repulsed)
TIME CUT:
INT. CELEBRITY TABLOID OFFICE IN FLORIDA – SAME
DAVIS-SUE
I’m telling you Devora, you better get an alibi!
(scared)
DEVORA
Goddammit Davis-Sue, I need big money for someone to place me at the horse races! Cigar store doesn’t pay enough. Your goddamn Trump tower owes me big! You can’t pin it on Dominga Rio! She’s got an alibi—she’s in Colorado for Christ’s Sake! Her maid let it out.
DAVIS-SUE
I’m too old for this shit, Devora!
AERIAL SHOT -– A plane hits the CELEBRITY TABLOID TOWER sending THE RAIDER’S high-rise RIVAL CELEBRITY TABLOID up in flames. Black smoke roils in the Florida sky.
