Mirror Mirror by M2M Kids in America by Kim Wilde Volare by Vitamin C
Des-covery
(ESTABLISHING SHOT – The laboratory where DES was created. A SCIENTIST and an AGENT stand as other AGENTS examine the computers.)
AGENT: You didn't leave the computers, not even for a second?
SCIENTIST: N-no, sir, she was always well-guarded.
AGENT: You were on the lookout for spyware.
SCIENTIST: Yes sir.
AGENT: Then explain to me how this could have happened.
SCIENTIST: I can't think of....
(An email pops up on the computer. There is no sender address. The email reads: "It was me. I installed the virus.")
AGENT: Can you trace that email?
SCIENTIST: I think so. (types furiously) ....I have nothing.
AGENT: Do you have any idea what the virus does?
SCIENTIST: (nods)
AGENT: What does it do?
SCIENTIST: It compromises her immune system.
AGENT: You'd bet money on that?
SCIENTIST: Yes.
AGENT: Thank God S060787 found her.
SCIENTIST: Do you have their assignment?
AGENT: Of course.
(Later, in Syd's room. X Men Evolution posters are all around the room)
SYD: I'm WHAT?!
AGENT: I'll say it again...(aside)...for the nineteenth time...(To SYD) You. Are. Mo-ving.
SYD: Got it. Got it. (beat) Wait. Where?
AGENT: We've contacted a woman named JESSIE BARKIN. She's DR. DRAKKEN's sister.
SYD: Wait...who the heck is DR. DRAKKEN?
AGENT: You'll find out soon enough.
SYD: Got it.
(Later, SYD is laying on the bed in her new room, a shocked expression on her face)
SYD: JESSIE. BARKIN. Is. Satan.
DES: (leaning against the wall) She wasn't that bad.
SYD: 'Wasn't that bad'? She scares the holy living crap out of me! Mark my words, DES, that woman is going to make our lives heck!!!
DES: You really have the paranoid part of the FBI down-pat, don't you?
SYD: Guess so.
DES: Man, you were right, though. She IS kinda scary. I heard her yelling at you from three stories up! And you were all like... 'Don't hurt me, AUNT JESSIE!' (laughs)
SYD: 'Kinda scary'?
DES: Yeah. Then again when you found me I scared the holy crap out of you.
SYD: I am not paranoid!
DES: Whatever.
SYD: I'm not!
DES: You know who the last guy to say that was?
SYD: Who?
DES: One of the guys in 'Psycho'.
SYD: Yeah, right. (beat) The killer or the guy getting killed?
(Beat)
DES: What do YOU think?
SYD: (Groan)
