Opening Scene:

INT. BEELZEBUB'S CLUB - NIGHT

A cacophony of raucous laughter, heavy metal music, and the clinking of glasses fills the air. The club is a swirling vortex of neon lights, sticky floors, and intoxicated demons. BEELZEBUB, a massive, bee-like demon with vibrant purple and yellow coloring, DJ's from a raised platform, occasionally taking swigs from a giant honey-filled flask. Demonic patrons writhe on the dance floor, many already passed out.

(SFX: A particularly loud, garbled shout from the crowd)

BEELZEBUB (Shouting over the music) Alright, you gluttonous grubs! Let's raise the volume one more notch for another night of pure, unadulterated SIN!

The music intensifies, the crowd roars its approval. Beelzebub grins, her multiple eyes gleaming with malicious glee.

(SFX: A flash of blinding white light, the music screeches to a halt.)

Everyone stops, staring in bewildered confusion. In the center of the dance floor, bathed in an ethereal white glow, stands JUPITER. He's tall and slender, with a serene expression and long, flowing white robes. He sports a golden laurel wreath on his head and carries a silver balance scale. He looks utterly out of place.

BEELZEBUB (Lowering her DJ headphones, a hint of annoyance creeping into her voice) Well, now, ain't this a party pooper? What in the nine circles is a glow stick doing in my club?

Jupiter raises an eyebrow, his British accent smooth and refined.

JUPITER (Calmly) "Glow stick," as you so eloquently put it, would be a gross mischaracterization. I am Jupiter, the personification of Temperance. And I must confess, this… "celebration" is hardly what I would consider a balanced endeavor.

(The music fades out entirely. The crowd murmurs, unsure how to respond)

BEELZEBUB Temperance? Never heard of it. Sounds… boring. What are you, like, the patron saint of lukewarm tea and early bedtimes?

Jupiter slowly lowers his scale, the gentle clinking of the metal adding to the awkward silence.

JUPITER Not quite, though a soothing chamomile is certainly preferable to whatever concoction you are imbibing. Temperance is about moderation, control, and the understanding that joy can be found in restraint, not just indulgence.

BEELZEBUB (Scoffs) Restraint? Darling, you're in Hell! We're allergic to restraint. And that's honey, not tea, pal! (She takes a big swig of her flask). You're in the wrong neighborhood, sunshine.

JUPITER (Observing the chaotic scene with pursed lips) Indeed. The sheer excess here is… quite impressive, in a garish and unpleasant manner. I must admit I'm beginning to understand why the celestial realms occasionally require a cleansing deluge.

BEELZEBUB (Snarling) Are you saying I'm messy?

Jupiter gently shakes his head.

JUPITER Messy is a rather kind term. It's more akin to a… a poorly-regulated fermenting vat of chaotic energy. Honestly, the sheer lack of self-control is rather… pathetic.

Beelzebub's eyes narrow. Several of her bodyguards, hulking demons with insectoid features, begin to advance on Jupiter.

BEELZEBUB You're gonna regret that, twinkle-toes.

JUPITER (Without a sliver of fear) Are you quite sure? My presence here, despite its initial discomfort, is actually rather beneficial. It's quite fascinating to observe such a blatant disregard for one's well-being. You demons do seem to find a remarkable amount of enjoyment in courting self-destruction. It's… almost admirable in its sheer lack of awareness.

He turns his gaze to the drunken demons on the floor.

JUPITER Look at them. Lying prone, barely conscious, completely overcome by their base instincts. Is this truly your ideal of a fulfilling existence? A never-ending cycle of hedonistic excess?

He turns back to Beelzebub with a challenging smirk on his face.

JUPITER Tell me, Beelzebub. Do you ever feel… empty?

(Close-up on Beelzebub's face. Her usual arrogance is slightly faltering, replaced by a flicker of something akin to… discomfort.)

BEELZEBUB (Trying to recover her bravado) Empty? I'm the queen of gluttony, doll! I'm full! Full of… fun! (She gestures wildly at her chaotic club)

JUPITER (Smiling serenely) Ah, yes. Fun. I do believe I have a slightly different definition.

(Jupiter raises his scale, and with a flash of light, the club's music becomes muted and tranquil. The flashing lights fade, replaced by soft, golden illumination. Some of the drunken patrons begin to sit up, looking confused but… oddly calmer.)

BEELZEBUB (Shrieking) What did you do?! Stop that! Put the noise back in!

JUPITER (His voice calm but firm) This is tranquility, Beelzebub. A temporary reprieve from the overwhelming din. Perhaps a moment of reflection is in order, wouldn't you agree?

Beelzebub lets out a low, frustrated growl. She's clearly out of her depth.

BEELZEBUB (Fuming) You might be able to tame my party, but you ain't gonna tame me. I'll get you out of here, you holier-than-thou… I'll… (She struggles for a truly cutting insult) You… Temperance Terror!

Jupiter chuckles, a soft, melodic sound that is completely out of place in the hellish environment.

JUPITER An apt moniker, I must admit. Though, I prefer "Jupiter."

(He turns to the slightly calmer, but still confused, demonic patrons, a gentle smile on his face.)

JUPITER Now then, perhaps we can all take a moment to breathe and appreciate the… nuances of this particular gathering.

(Jupiter stands peacefully in the center of the now-calm club, while Beelzebub watches with simmering rage. The camera zooms in on Beelzebub's face, ending the scene with a close-up on her infuriated expression.)

(FADE OUT)
