Setting: Osborne Silver's Office:

Tyler walks on into Silver's office like he owns the place. He's wearing grey jeans loose jeans and a black dress shirt with a silver chain. He's wearing black out of style dress shoes though he looks hot enough to melt a heart.

Brown nose held up high Tyler struts over to Conner Morgan's desk and takes a mint out of the bowl. He throws it in the air and catches it in his mouth.

"I'm hear to see Oz." He says proudly.

Conner nods and rises taking a stack of papers with him.

"Follow me Mr. Rorke." he commands respectfully, handing Tyler the papers.

"Mr. Rorke, I like it." Tyler mumbles happily under his breath.

He walks over to Mr. Silver's office and opens the door for Tyler.

"He's waiting for you.." says Conner as Tyler walks in.

The door shuts behind him and he walks up to Osborne Silver who is behind his desk with his hands folded.

The scene looks like a clueless student (Tyler) meeting with an serious yet enthusiastic principal (Osborne) .

Osborne smiles as Tyler sits across from him.

"So Ozzy boy what do you got for me?" asks Tyler eagerly.

Oz claps his hands and rises, walking around the table and behind Tyler. He starts walking around his office explaining his plans.

"I don't want funny anymore Tyler. Life isn't funny. Life is dark. Life is gritty." he looks and points at Tyler, "You can give me gritty can't you?" he asks.

Tyler stands up fervent, "yeah, I can give you gritty." he says keenly.

Ozborne steps up to Tyler and shakes his hand, "welcome aboard, Eric."

Tyler hesitantly shakes his hand, "Eric?" he reiterates.

Silver lets go and starts pacing his office once again to explain, "You've seen Snow White and the Huntsman?" he asks.

Tyler nods.

"You seen, Red Riding Hood?"

Tyler nods.

Ozborne continues, "Classic Disney movies are being remade into dark tales…"

He stops and looks at Tyler with both hands behind his back, "Hence the word Tails."

Tyler tilts his head confused and impatient, "Come'on get to the point Oz." he commands.

Osborne approaches Tyler and looks him dead in the eyes, and begins,

"A 19th century, morbid, science fiction love affair remake of…" He teases.

A pause…

"The Little Mermaid…"

Tyler recoils in surprise.

The little mermaid? …Eric. I'm the lead. Yes!

Tyler shakes his head snapping back to reality.

"The little mermaid?" he confirms, "are you sure Oz?"

Ozborne nods as he goes and sits back down, "It's good, it's creepy, it's gold."

I'm down, Tyler thinks as he sits back down.

"I like gold. I'm in." agrees Tyler offering his hand to shake Oz's

Oz rejects and gets up, "Good my prince, you already have the script." He says pointing to the papers in Tyler's hand.

Tyler looks down and looks back at Oz who is pacing the room once again.

"Sit down, Oz, relax." Tyler suggests playfully.

Ozborne laughs.

"Sooo when do we start filming?" Asks an eager beaver Tyler.

"Not for a bit, unfortunately." he answers, "We still need the rest of the crew and our set."

"oh.." says Tyler disappointed getting up, "So who's my Ariel?" he asks raising an eyebrow creepily.

"Not sure." says Oz looking around, "We need a big star though, because you don't exactly fit the description."

Tyler scoffs, "This isn't my first movie!" he defends.

Silver stops and looks at Tyler cocking his head grinning, "But nobody knows you.."

Tyler crosses his arms, "I'll do something to get known! What do I do?" he groans.

Ozborne laughs and claps his hands together, "I'm sure you heard about Tate's missing plane?"

Tyler grins remembering.

Best news of my life. No Eddie. No worries.

"What does that have to do with anything?" he asks.

Ozborne stops pacing and walks up to Tyler. Inches apart he leans in and whispers, "You want to be a house hold name?" he asks.

"More then anything." Tyler whispers back.

"Find Eddie's plane." suggest Ozborne backing up and smiling.

Tyler's face dropped.

The guy who ruined my success is going to be my ticket to success? Maybe this is a trick. Maybe it's for real. I do need to get my bad-guy persona off my chest. And this would do it.

Tyler swallowed hard and looked away clenching his fist.

"I'll do it." he mumbled.

Silver beamed, "Great! Now get out of my office and I'll call you with follow up information."

And just like that Tyler was out.

Setting: Jake Madson Management

Adam and Mel are standing outside Jake's office banging on the door.

"Open up!" Adam yells

"We need to talk to you!" screams Mel about to barge down the door.

Adam looks at Mel and shrugs his shoulders.

Mel bites her lip and thinks.

"ooh!" she goes as she pats Adam's arm.

She clears her throat and punches the door three times.

"POLICE OPEN UP!" tries Mel in the most serious deep voice she can make.

Adam snickers.

Though there is still no answer.

"Maybe he's just not here." assumes Adam.

Mel sighs and starts to walk back to her car.

"Back to Plan B!" she yells behind her.

"What's Plan B?" asks Adam confused.

"I don't know!" Mel screams annoyed.

"How bout the website?" tries Adam.

"Forget the freaky website!" Mel yells angry.

Setting: Inside Loren's tent.

Loren opens her eyes. She feels well rested, though her heart is still sore.

She sits up and rubs her eyes. Suddenly, she realizes Kelly and her mom are no longer in the tent.

It's still dark outside so Loren is confused on where they could be.

Loren gets up and crawls out of her tent.

She looks around, but nobodies in sight. Not a footprint, not a whisper.

She walks to Max's tent and peeks her head in thinking maybe her Mom or Kelly is with Max and Jake.

The tent is empty as well.

"That's weird.." Loren says to herself.

Then she walks over to Eddie's tent. Hesitantly she pokes her head in.

That tent's empty too.

Loren grows worried. She walks toward to fire and starts to call out for her loved ones.

"Mom!?" she calls

"Max?!"

"Jake!?"

"Kelly?!"

There is no response.

Loren tucks a strip of hair behind her ear and she shrugs her shoulders, "Guess I need to find them.." she mumbles.

She bends down to pick up a 2x4 sitting by the fire.

She smirks, "for protection." she says to herself.

Then she begins to walk down the beach.

She walks just by the water so she can't get lost.

She looks to her left and peers at the threatening jungle. It's almost pitch black but some of it is glowing red from the nearby fire.

She swallows scared, and she grips her 2x4 tighter.

Please don't be in there, She thinks.

She looks to her right and gazed at the ocean.

The moon is full and sits just above the ocean line. Stars infill the sky and it looks like white Christmas lights.

Loren stops and appreciates the sight.

You can't see stars in LA

The stars and moon light up the beach with a mysterious teal tint.

It reminded Loren of Eddie's ring.

Loren sighs painfully.

The wave's in the ocean are rippling slightly and the blue water glistens.

Loren continues walking down the teal tinted moonlit beach.

"Loren?" a familiar voice calls from behind her.

The voice was sweet and sultry smooth. The voice was like chocolate and brought a smile to her face. The words Loren traveled into her ears and down to her heart, warming it.

She turns around.

"Eddie?" she asks.

Behind her was a eerie fog and she could see the silhouette of a brawny male.

It was Eddie's voice. It has to be Eddie..

Loren drops the 2x4 and grins, she runs into the fog in open arms.

As she descends into the fog she finds her mystery male.

It was indeed Eddie.

He was wearing a white button down dress shirt that was unbuttoned just enough to see his golden-bronze chest. The shirt was partially see-through because of the beach mist wetting it.

He was wearing loose grey dress pants. And no shoes.

His black hair was styled perfectly has hanging just over his eyes.

His hands were in his pockets and his head was tilted to the left with a sweet tilted smile.

"Loren?" he called again.

Loren beamed and ran up to Eddie.

It was just the two lovers hugging in the moonlight. Surrounded by the glittery fog and ocean mist that felt like tiny wet kisses.

"Oh Eddie!" she cries in joy hugging him.

She lets go and he cups her face, "I love you, don't you forget it." he says seriously at first but then ending with a smile.

Loren starts to cry tears of joy, "You remember?" she asks sniffling.

Eddie smiles and nods, caressing her cheek.

"The pastrami sandwiches, the weekend at the cabin, the hill, your party, everything…" he whispers sweetly. Then he goes into his pocket and takes out the ring.

"And most importantly this.." he says getting down on one knee.

Loren gasps.

Eddie looks up to her and grins holding her left hand,

"Loren Tate.. My biggest fan, my best friend, my girlfriend, the most beautiful girl in the world. I want to spend each and every waking moment with you, I want to fall asleep and wakeup by your side every day and night. I want to be able to wakeup in the middle of the night and roll over to see your beautiful face. I want to hold you as I drift back to sleep. Knowing your mine. Will you make me the happiest man in the world and marry me?" he says charmingly as he slips the ring on Loren's finger.

Loren smiles and nods, "Yes." she whispers.

"Yes!" she reiterates excitedly jumping on Eddie.

They begin to rough house and roll down the beach just by the water.

Eddie is on top of Loren and he puts both of his hands in hers. Just as he leans in to kiss her-

…

..

"Loren honey, wake up!" nags Nora shaking Loren's arm.

Loren sits up quickly and gasps.

"What? What?" she asks looking at her mom.

She then rubs her eyes and looks at her mom again.

She was still in the tent with her mom. And no Eddie.

"awwhhh.." Loren groans in disappointment.

It was just a dream.. -.-

Nora crawls out of the tent and Loren follows her.

Of course It was just a dream, of course.

They get up and Loren sees everybody by the now put out fire. They're clothes are all still tattered. Everyone still looks miserable. And by the lack of attention Eddie is giving her he still doesn't remember.

Loren sighs and approaches Max.

"Still nothing?" She asks already knowing the answer.

"unfortunately.." he responds.

Loren looks away at the ocean remembering her dream.

Why couldn't it be real?

Nora butts in trying to bring light into the situation, "We just need to jog his memory!" she says, then elbows Loren, "try talking to him!"

Loren shrugs her shoulders and walks up to Eddie.

It's worth a try..

Eddie is talking amicably to Jake, and there both eating some kind of berry fish funk.

Loren approaches them, "Hey Jake can I steal Eddie for a sec?" She asks sweetly.

Jake takes a bite of whatever he's eating and nods, walking away.

Eddie faces Loren and smiles.

Does he remember?!

"Leslie right?" he asks gesturing to her.

of course not.. And ouch!

Loren tilts her head trying to fight off the moral punch to the face.

"Loren, actually." She corrects.

Eddie nods taking a bite, "Right, right. So what do you want?" he asks.

Ouch again..

Loren bites her lip, "I was wondering if we could sit down and talk, reminisce? See if I can jog your memory?" She says kindly.

Eddie chuckles, "What makes you thing you can jog my memory?"

"Cause I'm your girlfriend!" she stammers angrily.

Eddie almost chokes on his food. "G-girlfriend?" he reiterates.

Loren nods.

Fiancé actually…

Eddie raises his eyebrows and walks away back over to Jake, "Yikes.." he mumbles walking away.

Loren's jaw drops.

That one hurt… That one killed me… I'm dead..

She sighs and walks back over to Max and Nora.

"Anything?" Nora asks.

Loren shakes her head and stands between her mother and Max. Max pats her back, "We'll get him." he says confidently.

Glad he thinks so. , Loren thinks.

Then, Max starts clapping his hands to get everybody's attention,

"Everyone! We're going to start heading into the jungle to see if there's anyone that can help us!" He announces, "Stay together, and don't split up by any means!"

Everybody grabs there bags and starts walking towards Max, Loren, and Nora and into the jungle.

"here." says Nora handing Loren her bag.

Loren wraps the band around her arm. "Let's go." she mumbles melancholy following Max and the rest of the crew into the deep jungle.

Setting: Tyler's Apartment

Tyler walks over to his kitchen sink and sets a bowl once full of cereal in it. He puts away the cereal box and milk. He then walks over to his couch and plops on it.

He reaches and grabs his laptop and opens it, going to his go-to search engine, Google.

"I cant believe I'm actually doing this." he mumbles to himself

He thinks, You have to find the plane, it's to be famous. A household name. Oz wants you now, not Eddie. Who knows? He's probably dead anyway..

He types in, "Loren Tate Eddie Duran Plane Search Groups" and hits ,enter.

The first thing that pops up.

Tyler raises his eyebrows as he clicks on the link.

He looks through the information.

"Blah blah blah blah." he complains scrolling down,

"Ah." he says finding what he wants.

He clicks the email link and begins to type in his message:

" TO: Melsanders1890

SUBJECT: finding Leddie

I would like to help look for Loren and Eddie's plane. I have connections. Call me, 555-3009

-Tyler Rorke

"

Tyler clicks 'send' and shuts his laptop.

That's all for now. , He thinks setting his laptop on his coffee table and sprawls out on his couch.

"Nap time." he says to himself before dozing off.
