To you . . . PURSIAN

[Being petted by the free hand]

Purr-ko-sian . . . GIOVANNI

You do know that Viridian City Gym is only a hobby . . .my hope it that one day she might come there . . . [Laughter. Enter LIANNA - though hidden]

Some master of the world you are . . . GIOVANNI

[Turns in his chair seeing her

]

How dare you show your face here! Get out now! I thought I destroyed your organization! [Enter 3 of LIANNA's minions, before he could do anything they attacked him. He struggled with them]









GIOVANNI [as struggle continues, with PURSIAN helping him]

Butch! Cassidy . . .

Mewtwo . . .

[Face having the horrible realization, that MEWTWO is no longer employed] Somebody help me!

I'd even settle for Jessie and James! CASSIDY

[kicks the door down]

Sir, sir . . . . Boss ! boss? BUTCH

[finding evidence of a great battle, but no boss or LIANNA, or her minions]

Sir! Sir? CASSIDY

[to BUTCH, growling]

Those two . . . I didn't think they had the brains . . . BUTCH

[nods, picks up the broken frame]

Now you've got me, are you going to stand there and gloat? Well, Lianna?

[aside to PERSIAN]

Go, get help, anyone. LIANNA

[PURSIAN sneaks out of the room]

Still noble? Still noble? You are just like me, one little nudge and you will become me. GIOVANNI

Don't disillusion yourself, I'm three times worse than you ever will be . . . personally I don't think you have the guts to create what I did . . .

[she shivers to his gloat]

Frankly, Lianna, you are just a copycat. A copy is a copy, but the real thing is authentic. LIANNA

Then what of that stupid picture you always carry around, that's only a copy. GIOVANNI

Leave my Racheal out of this . . . LIANNA

[insulted]

She's dead.

[clutches the GS-Ball, which during the montage of attacks, she "borrowed"] You're so wound up in the memory of that girl; you didn't see what is in front of your face.

You choose a stupid memory over me . . .You spurned me! All for a dead woman and a vendetta . . .Well, well, you know that they say about a woman scorned, Giovanni . . . Without you, Team Rocket will die. I'll destroy everything you've ever loved . . .

[Throw up the GS-ball and catches it like it was a toy]
