CHAPTER 7:
My Lover Vinny

(Scene #28: The Estharian
sewers. Quistis and Selphie
hightail down the catwalk--
only to stop short before
Vincent, his rifle aimed at
the SeeD gals.)

Quistis: V-Vincent Valentine....?!?

Vincent: At your service. So, you
$^&*%@# so called Trepe Teacher
had the gall to come back after you
jilted me years ago!! First Lucreatia,
and now you!!

Quistis: Listen, I can explain....

Vincent: Explain? That you left me
for that Galbadian bastard Seifer
Almasy?!?

Quistis: That wasn't me that dated
Seifer--it was Rinoa Heartily.

Selphie: Hey, I remember that.

Vincent: It WAS....?!? I didn't
know that.

Quistis: I'll prove it that I still
care for you. (From there, she
hugs and French kisses the
former Turk full on the mouth,
to Selphie's surprise, if not
amusement.)

Selphie: WHOO-HOO!! Go,
Quisty!!

(After the kiss, Quistis steps back.)

Quistis: If you may pardon me, me
an' Selphie got some crucial taxes
to pay in Deling City.

Selphie: An' the sooner, the better.
See you, Vinny!!

(From there, The Blues SeeDs
run down the path when Vincent
calls out.)

Vincent: Hey you %@#*$^&!! You
forgot to pay me my alimony!! Come
back here!!

(Even while Vincent shoots down
the path the gals took with his rifle,
Quistis and Selphie reach the end
of the passage.)

(Scene #29: The Esthar Airstation #7,
night. Lifting up and out a section
of sewer grating, our heroines run to
the airstation and board the Ragnarok
--2.3 seconds before a squad of G-Army
troops patrol that section. Inside the
bridge, Selphie adjusts the ship's
controls.)

Selphie: All set?

Quistis: It's 106 miles to Deling City.
We got a full tank of fuel, 70,000 gil,
an' peace of mind. Hit it.

Selphie: WHOO-HOO!! We're flyin'!!

(With that in mind, Selphie pilots the
Ragnarok up and out from Esthar--just
before Seifer spots it.)

Seifer: It's the %@#*$^& Ragnarok!!
STOP THEM!!!!!!!!

(Even while the Galbadian troops open
fire, and their bullets ricochet off the
Ragnarok's energy sheild, the
Estharian dragon ship is rocketing off
into the night sky. As such, Seifer
pulls out a comlink unit, shaped like
a cell phone.)

Seifer: Attention, attention, to all of The
Republic Of Galbadia Army Dept!! The
Ragnarok is on the loose in the skies!!
Send EVERYTHING you got after it, or
no pinball in the rec room!! (pause) What?!?
Imogene's Delicatessen?!? You got the wrong
number!! (muttering) Dumb party line!!
