Board Members in Board Room- Strange’ smells a perfume

Strange: (Smells Perfume) I hate it

Strange’: I said I wanted the essence of sex!

Jacqueline: Yes

Board Member (Lloyd): Well I think this is it

Strange: You would, but let me show you what I’m talking about (Takes of thong)

Board Member 2: Unbelievable!

(Holds thong up to board members face)

Strange’: (Rubs thong in man’s face) this is the essence of sex! Voila!!! (Laughs indistinctively)

(Lloyd storms out of the room angrily)

(Strange starts speaking French)

Strange’: And you, where have you been you?

Marcus: I had to go…

(Strange cuts off Marcus)

Strange’- Oh Shut up! Look at this! This is ridiculous. (Throws thong) Why are my concepts being ignored? (Gets in Jacqueline’s face) I am not a fool! I know what the people want. They want to be shocked, and they want to be stunned, and they want to be jolted! (Shows her ass to Lloyd) (Lloyd turns head is dismay) So I’ve prepared a list of names for the fragrance.

Marcus: After what?

Strange’: After…..(Pause) Birth

Marcus: I’m sorry I thought you said “bath”.

His ominous blue eyes peering right through you as if you did not even exist. Slowly the camera pulls back as Alex takes a sip of drug laced milk revealing the type of company he keeps. His “droogs” as Alex called them were seated next to him on a bench in the Korova Milk Bar. The Korova Milk Bar was decorated with nude figures of women posed as if they had fallen backwards and they attempted to catch themselves by putting their arms behind them. The flats of their stomachs doubled as a table where glasses of milk could be placed. Other nude statues…

    “He yanks me by the wrist, thrusting his pelvis at me in a vulgar way, and I can see my hand in an endless slow motion rise- a mind all its own- and come down on the astonished, made-up face. And then the rain comes down hard, slapping sheets of it. The tablecloths are blown off the tables, dashing their cargo onto the floor. The candles go out. There are squeels of surprise.

    When ‘Kat22’ joins the conversation and ‘Pete’ leaves, the girl and ‘JJ’ start talking, however the tone between the two changes. ‘JJ’ uses a winking emotion after he says, ‘see you in a bit babes’ who could suggest that he is attracted to ‘Kat22’.

Additionally, he says, ‘I will go to ur yard’ and uses the word ‘p’ for money, the term ‘yard’ and slang word ‘p’ is American.
