enters Mike’s office. (Michelle) Here you are Mr. Kelly. (Mike) Michelle,

            set up the contracts for the Goza deal. Also, have it ready in two hours.
            Call my limo to the front. Mr. Schuzi and I will be going to the bid site.
            (Michelle) I’ll get right on it, Mr. Kelly. She starts to exit the room.

            (Mike)  Michelle.  (Michelle)  Sir.  (Mike)  How  long  have  you  worked  for
            me?  (Michelle)  About  nine  years  Mr.  Kelly.  (Mike)  Don’t  you  think  it’s

            about time you drop the Mr. Kelly crap? I’m just Mike, OK? (Michelle) I’m
            sorry  Mr.  Kelly,  Mike.  Please  forgive  me.  I’ll  just  get  the  job  done  for

            you. I promise I’ll work on it.


                              Ben’s home with him talking to his girlfriend.

            (Ben)  You  know  I  love  my  grandfather,  but  he’s  going  crazy.  I  don’t

            understand him. He is so wise and yet talks in riddles. (Tracey) Ben you
            know your grandfather loves you. Couldn’t it be that he is right and you

            refuse to accept it? (Ben) Tracey I thought I could talk to you. You too
            are fool enough to tell me to accept my dreams as truth. Has everyone
            gone crazy or am I the only one that has any real control of his mind? Be

            for real, Tracey. (Tracey) Ben you are so smart, aren’t you? I just don’t
            understand  how  someone  so  smart  can  be  such  a  fool.  You  refuse  to

            believe your grandfather is a wise old man. Some say he’s a prophet. (Ben)
            Enough  OK.  Let’s  talk  about  something  other  than  Machista  and  my

            grandfather. (Tracey) No, Ben, you have a gift whether you choose to or
            not use it is up to you. You can’t run away from your calling and who do

            you think you are? You’ll never, as long as you live, Ben, order me around.

              At that moment Blackfoot enters the room unannounced to Ben and

                                                        Tracey


            (Blackfoot) Ben, you may feel I have gone beyond my years, but the evil
            that has come to our land is that of man. Are you so blind that can’t see

            the winds of change? No one can dream the same dream for so long and
            not have some connection to that person’s life.


              Ben, in shock, would not answer, but he starts to think back to his
                young childhood when he would spend a lot of time talking to his

                          grandfather. Ben’s reflects on his past childhood.
