Part 8: My Lucky Color is Blue

FADE IN

INT. SHINRA TOWER - CONFERENCE ROOM - DAY

REEVE sits in one of the chairs beaten. His face isn’t too bruised but his nose has begun to bleed. The two SHINRA SOLDIERS continue to prevent Reeve from going anywhere.

SHINRA SOLDIER #22

(into his radio)

Yes, sir.

(to the other soldier)

He’s here.

REEVE

Who is? Rufus?

A few beats; then the door opens and RUFUS along with HEIDEGGER enters. Rufus jokingly smiles at the sight of Reeve.

RUFUS

Reeve, my “loyal” executive, greetings.

REEVE

(standing up)

Rufus, I demand to know what is going on here. You have my two military escorts bring me here and tell them to violently abuse me.

RUFUS

You’re quite right. Be thankful that you’re still alive.

REEVE

What are you saying?

Rufus smiles and he and Heidegger sit down at the conference table.

HEIDEGGER

Please do sit, Reeve.

Reeve cautiously sits down at the table.

RUFUS

We’re beginning to question where your loyalty lies.

REEVE

I’ve always been loyal to Shinra.

RUFUS

Then why? Why neglect the President?

REEVE

What do you mean?

HEIDEGGER

You weren’t in Junon for the ceremony. What does that say to the world?

REEVE

(angered)

This is bullshit! Hojo or Palmer weren’t there either!

RUFUS

Hojo had a legitimate excuse. He is on the trail of Sephiroth…along with the Turks. And Palmer isn’t officially an executive. We’ve disbanded out space program for quite some time now.

REEVE

I was in the slums surveying the damage we caused.

RUFUS

Who gave that order?

Reeve is speechless.

HEIDEGGER

Speak!

REEVE

(defeated)

I did.

RUFUS

That’s right and what did I tell you about the Sector 7 Slums?

REEVE

You said that it was a waste because we weren’t rebuilding.

RUFUS

Then why survey the damage, Reeve?

REEVE

(defensive)

Because I disagree with your decision. I think we should rebuild. Shinra can’t put all it money into a plan to reach the Promised Land which we don’t even know exists.

HEIDEGGER

You are speaking the President of Shinra, Reeve. Show some respect!

Rufus calms Heidegger down with a hand gesture.

RUFUS

Tell me Reeve, were you loyal to my father?

REEVE

I’m loyal to all of Shinra.

RUFUS

Prove it then. If you prove to me that you aren’t some money-grumbling moron, I won’t kill you.

REEVE

Kill me?

RUFUS

Yes that’s right. The law does say that to rebel against the president of Shinra will spell your death via execution.

REEVE

No it doesn’t!

RUFUS

Now it does.

Rufus smiles.

RUFUS

(CONT.)

Are we understood? Show me you’re executive material and keep your damn mind focused.

REEVE

(determined)

Yes sir.

(BEAT)

I love my position here and I’ll prove to Shinra that I am valuable.

RUFUS

(smiles)

Good. You do that.

(BEAT)

And now…you’re free to go.

Reeve gets up, buttons his jacket, and leaves the conference room.

HEIDEGGER

I still think we should keep our eyes on him.

RUFUS

I agree. Get in touch with the Turks. I want a status report.

HEIDEGGER

Yes, sir.

EXT. COREL - RAIL TRAM PORT - DUSK

CLOUD, BARRET, AERIS, TIFA, YUFFIE, and RED XIII all wait in the Corel port for the tram to get ready to take them to Gold Saucer. A REPAIRMAN is there fixing a gear counsel.

TIFA

We’ve been here all day!

(to repairman)

Are you done yet?

The repairman flips a switch and the gears in the box begin to spin.

REPAIRMAN

Now I am.

He wipes the grease off his hands and gets up.

CLOUD

What was wrong with it?

REPAIRMAN

Looked like sabotage to me. Stuff like that just doesn’t happen by itself.

AERIS

Who could have sabotaged the tram?

Aeris looks at Cloud and immediately gets an idea of who it was. The repairman walks to the group.

BARRET

How much is it?

REPAIRMAN

Job like that…I’d say about 250.

Barret looks at Cloud. Cloud nods and Barret gives the repairman a pouch of cash.

REPAIRMAN

(stashing the cash)

Thanks.

(BEAT)

Say, aint you the guy everyone in this town talk about?

BARRET

What guy?

REPAIRMAN

Yeah I think you are that guy. A lot of people hate you here.

BARRET

(irritated)

Thanks, I know.

REPAIRMAN

Hey man, I don’t care what you did or didn’t do. I moved here from Midgar. It’s good business being the only repair guy in town.

CLOUD

Thanks for the help.

REPAIRMAN

You bet.

The repairman leaves. A few beats; then the group heads toward the tram.

YUFFIE

So who did sabotage our passage? Those Turk guys?

RED XIII

Perhaps it was him?

YUFFIE

Who?

TIFA

You’ve got a lot of catchin’ up to do, Yuffie.

The team boards the tram.

OPERATOR (OS)

Tram departing!

The OPERATOR flips a lever and the tram’s propellers begin to spin.

INT. ROPEWAY TRAM - NIGHT

The party, except Cloud, all sits on the cushioned bench that lines the interior of the tram. Barret is still extremely depressed as he watches the tram start to move up the ropeway.

TIFA

(comforting)

Barret, you gotta’ cheer up.

BARRET

Just leave me alone.

Cloud walks to the window and looks out.

CLOUD

Sephiroth must know that we’re after him. Who else could have sabotaged those controls?

AERIS

The Turks?

RED XIII

I doubt that, Aeris.

(MORE)

RED XIII

(CONT.)

Don’t you think we would have heard something back in Corel?

CLOUD

He’s right. It could only be Sephiroth.

YUFFIE

Again, who’s Sephiroth!?

Cloud sighs.

TIFA

Long story. But in short, he’s the guy we’re after.

YUFFIE

(sarcastically)

What’d he do to deserve people like us?

AERIS

Is ‘wiping out the world’ a good enough answer?

A beat.

YUFFIE

I see.

BOOM! A huge thundering burst nearly rocks the tram. Startled everyone looks out the window and sees that fireworks are exploding all over the place. In the midst of all the color is Gold Saucer, a huge gold-colored amusement complex that resembles a stem with five mushroom-like branches.

TIFA

(surprised)

That’s Gold Saucer!?

CLOUD

Yeah.

AERIS

Isn’t it beautiful?

RED XIII

Will they welcome my species there? I’d very much like to see this place.

CLOUD

I’m sure they will. Gold Saucer is the place to find the most bizarre creatures on the planet.

AERIS

Is this place run by Shinra?

CLOUD

(smiling)

Nope. It’s Shinra-free.

Aeris grins widely. Barret still sits there depressed.

AERIS

(gazing out the window)

The place is enormous! Can we even find Sephiroth?

CLOUD

We’re going to have to try.

(BEAT)

Now come on, we’re about to dock.

INT. GOLD SAUCER - RAILWAY STATION - NIGHT

The tram docks through a tunnel resembling a giant pink moogle. The station is brightly lit up. The doors of the tram open and the part gets out. They look at the place in amazement.

TIFA

This place is incredible!

Cloud walks up to the front counter next to the complex’s main entrance. There waiting is the EMPLOYEE.

EMPLOYEE

Can I help you folks?

CLOUD

Yeah, we’re looking to get in to Gold Saucer.

EMPLOYEE

Well you’re here. How many of you are there?

CLOUD

Six.

EMPLOYEE

Six-hundred gil then.

TIFA

(shocked)

Six-hundred! Isn’t that a bit steep?

EMPLOYEE

I don’t make the rules, lady. That’s all up to Dio.

Cloud pulls out his envelope of money and pulls the rest of the cash out. He hands it to the man.

EMPLOYEE

(counting the money)

Alright then.

(BEAT)

Welcome to Gold Saucer!

CLOUD

Thank you.

EMPLOYEE

Enjoy your stay. The railway will be waiting.

Cloud nods and the party proceeds into--

INT. GOLD SAUCER - STATION SQUARE - NIGHT

The Gold Saucer Station Square is a small round yellow room that has access to all of the complex’s activity squares. The doors to the other squares are circles connected to a tube transport system. There are six circular passageways. Each of them has the name of the square they lead to above it. The squares are, Chocobo Square, Wonder Square, Ghost Square, Event Square, Speed Square, Battle Square, and Station Square.

RED XIII

This is it?

AERIS

(looking at the circular doors)

I guess we go through those.

TIFA

So where do you want to go?

AERIS

We should do something fun while we’re here. Barret needs some cheering up.

BARRET

I aint in no cheery mood. So ‘jes leave me alone.

CLOUD

Can we just drop this?

AERIS

Sure, but we’re going to go play.

BARRET

So fucking play already! Don’t forget we’re after Sephiroth!

Barret runs and jumps into the Ghost Square passage.

YUFFIE

Where’s he going?

TIFA

Probably to look for a drink.

CLOUD

Alright enough of this! It’s obvious that Barret has a lot on his mind. We all do, but we shouldn’t lose our focus. Sephiroth is somewhere inside and I’m going to find him.

AERIS

How? This place is enormous!

RED XIII
