Laney looked at the rose that Larry gave to her. Corey appeared onto the stage.
Past The Point Of No Return:
Corey: Go away for the trap it is set and waits for it's prey.
You have come here
In pursuit of your deepest urge
In pursuit of that wish which till now
Has been silent
Silent.
I have brought you
That our passions may fuse and merge
In your mind you've already succumbed to me, dropped all defenses
Completely succumbed to me
Now you are here with me
No second thoughts
You've decided
Decided.
Past the point of no return
No backward glances
Our games of make-believe are at an end.
Past all thought of if or when
No use resisting
Abandon thought and let the dream descend
What raging FIRE shall flood the soul
What rich desire unlocks it's door
What sweet seduction lies before us?
Past the point of no return
The final threshold
What warm unspoken secrets
Will we learn
Beyond the point of no return?
Laney: You have brought me
To that moment when words run dry
To that moment when speech disappears
Into silence
Silence.
I have come here,
Hardly knowing the reason why
In my mind I've already imagined
Our bodies entwining
Defenseless and silent,
Now I am here with you
No second thoughts
I've decided
Decided.
Past the point of no return
No going back now
Our passion-play has now at last begun.
Past all thought of right or wrong
One final question
How long should we two wait before we're one?
When will the blood begin to race
The sleeping bud burst into bloom
When will the flames at last CONSUME us?
BOTH: Past the point of no return
The final threshold
The bridge is crossed
So stand and watch it burn
We've passed the point of no return.
Corey and Laney approached each other and Corey wrapped his arms around Laney's waist. The two straps on Laney's white blouse fell down to the sides of her arms.
Corey:(soft and sort of saddened) Say you'll share with me
One love, one lifetime
Lead me, save me from my solitude
Say you want me
With you here
Beside you
Anywhere you go
Let me go too
Christine that's all I ask of
(Laney tears off Corey's mask, showing his face to the audience.)
Kin and Kon gasped and so did the rest of the audience. "Oh my god!" Larry said. "Dear lord!" Carrie said. Corey just looked at Laney and she smiled sweetly. He picked her up and cut one of the ropes and a trap door below them opened and they fell. The musicians and the audience gasped as they watched Corey and Laney fall. "Oh my god! We have to save Laney!" Kin said and saw Larry run towards the twins. "Where did he take her?" Larry asked. "I don't know," Kin said. "Go! Follow him!" Larry ran after Corey. "Oh no," Kon said. Meanwhile, Corey was grabbing Laney's arm running down to the music lair feeling enraged.
(Track Down This Murderer:)
Corey:
Down once more to the dungeon of my black despair!
Down we plunge to the prison of my mind!
Down that path into darkness deep as hell!
Why, you ask, was I bound and chained in this cold and dismal place?
Not for any mortal sin, but the wickedness of my abhorrent face!
CHORUS:
Track down this murderer!
He must be found!
Corey:
Hounded out by everyone!
Met with hatred everywhere!
No kind word from anyone!
No compassion anywhere!
Laney ...
Why?... Why?!
Larry ran past Corey's house and heard him singing loudly. He opened the garage and heard the singing coming from the sewer. He jumped in and swam to the music lair.
CHORUS:
Track down this murderer he must be found!
Track down this murderer he must be found!
Hunt out this animal, who runs to ground! Too long he's preyed on us, but now we know, the phantom of the opera is here deep
down inside!
He's here the Phantom of the Opera...
He's here the Phantom of the Opera...
Laney was in the strapless evergreen gown, she walked up to Corey singing and feeling upset.
Laney:
Have you gorged yourself at last in your lust for blood?
Am I now to be prey to your lust for flesh?
Corey smiled in a kind of creepy way and started to sing.
Corey:
That fate which condemns me to wallow in blood, has also denied me the joys of the flesh ...
This face - the infection which poisons our love ...
This face, which earned a mother's fear and loathing ...
A mask, my first unfeeling scrap of clothing ...
Pity comes too late - turn around
and face your fate: an eternity of this before your eyes!
Laney:
This haunted face holds no horror for me now ...
It's in your soul that the true distortion lies ...
Then Larry appeared and Corey saw him.
Corey:
Wait! I think, my dear, we have a guest!
Sir, this is indeed an unparalleled delight!
I had rather hoped that you would come.
And now my wish comes true - you have truly made my night!
Larry:
Free her!
Do what you like only free her!
Have you no pity?
Corey:
Your lover makes a passionate plea!
Laney:
Please Larry, it's useless!
Larry:
I love her!
Does that mean nothing?
I love her!
Larry:
Laney, Laney...
Let me see her...
Corey opened the gate and Larey walked in. The gate closed behind him.
Corey:
Be my guest, sir ...
Monsieur, I bid you welcome!
Did you think that I would harm her?
Why should I make her pay for the sins which are yours?
Then Corey tied Larry to the gate and put a lasso around Larry's neck. Laney gasped in horror. Corey went a little insane at that moment.
(Corey:) Order your fine horses now!
Raise up your hand to the level of your eyes!
Nothing can save you now - except perhaps Laney...
Start a new life with me -
Buy his freedom with your love!
Refuse me, and you send your lover to his death!
This is the choice -
This is the point of no return!
Laney:
The tears I might have shed for your dark fate grow cold, and turn to tears of hate!
Larry:
Laney, forgive me please forgive me ...
I did it all for you, and all for nothing ...
Laney:
Farewell my fallen idol and false friend ...
We had such hopes, and now those hopes are shattered!
Corey:
Too late for turning back, too late for prayers and useless pity!
Larry:
Say you love him and my life is over
Corey:
All hope of cries for help; no point in fighting!
Larry/Corey:
For either way you choose, he has to win/you cannot win!
Corey:
So, do you end your days with me,
or do you send him to his grave?
Larry:
Why make her lie to you, to save me?
Corey tugged harder on the rope making Larry jerk his head. He couldn't breathe very well.
Laney:
Angel of Music...
Corey:
Past the point of no return -
Larry:
For pity's sake,
Laney, say no!
Laney:
...who deserves this?
Corey:
... the final threshold...
Larry:
Don't throw your life away for my sake!
Laney:
When will you see reason ...?
Corey:
His life is now the prize which you must earn!
Larry:
I fought so hard to free you ...
Laney:
Angel of Music ...
Corey:
You've passed the point of no return ...
Laney:
... you deceived me.
I gave my mind blindly.
Laney:
Pitiful creature of darkness...
What kind of life have you known?
God give me courage to show you you are not alone...
Then Laney walked up to Corey and gave him a deep passionate kiss. She pulled back for air and kissed him again. She stopped and looked at him, he was crying softly feeling guilty for what he had done.
CHORUS:
Track down this murderer he must be found!
Hunt out this animal, who runs to ground! Too long he's preyed on us, but now we know, the phantom of the opera is there
deep down inside!
Corey:
Take her! Forget me! forget all of this...
Leave me alone - forget all you've seen...
Go now - don't let them find you!
Take the boat - swear to me, never to tell, the secrets you know, of the angel in hell
GO NOW!
GO NOW AND LEAVE ME!
Laney untied Larry and left leaving Corey sad and alone. As Laney walked outside the garage she felt someone grabbed her and put her in a sack. She screamed so loud, Corey heard it from the sewers. "Lanes," he said and put his mask back on and ran after Carrie who drove away in a car that she stole.
