INT. MEETING ROOM – NIGHT

Looking out a window we SEE a speckle of multicolored nightscape: blinking lights, cars driving by, hundreds of lives living quietly. An unidentifiable Los Angeles suburb rests below. We HEAR a voice introduce, “Nick Sadie”.

CLAPS make us look onstage.

                                                                                         NICK

                                                            You deserve more–you work hard everyday.

NICK SADIE is in his 30’s, average height and looks, in a suit, no tie, yet with an aura that makes one watch and listen: we want to see what’s up next.

                                                                                            NICK (Cont.)

                                                               Are you getting what you’re worth? 

We SEE a man staring up at NICK SADIE, his eyes focused on each thought as if in a hypnotic spell. Nick’s words speak only to him. Nothing else matters at this moment. This is MARCOS ALIAS. 

                                                                                                                               DISSOLVE TO:
