to me, remember?"
"What kind of cooperation do you
suppose I'm going to get if I
start shouting aliens or devils?"
"Just trust me, I know what I'm
doing."


FATHER JOHN
"I'm sorry, you're right of
course." "So what's the plan?"


SUSAN POWERS
"I'm working on one." "Give me
some time."


Father John and Mary Kate sit down on two chairs nearby


MARY KATE
"We've gotten this far, so I
suppose there is still hope."


FATHER JOHN
"I'm beginning to believe that
too."

SUSAN POWERS
"Okay, how does this sound to you
two." "Every observatory, views
the night sky from a different
angle." "What one might be able to
see, another might miss entirely."


FATHER JOHN
"With you so far."


SUSAN POWERS
"Suppose, I tell the other
observatories, that I am seeing
something they cannot see, due to
my unique vantage point on the
earth."


FATHER JOHN
"So what are we seeing from here?"


SUSAN POWERS
"How about meteors, moving at
tremendous velocity?" "They will
strike the earth within two days."


FATHER JOHN
"But they'll figure out you're
lying."


SUSAN POWERS
"Not lying, MISINTERPRETING."


Father John and Susan Powers smile at each other, Mary Kate
gives a somewhat half smile


FATHER JOHN
"It just might work." "All we need
to do, is get at least some of the
world's population to stay indoors
on the 21st."


Susan Powers begins to type out a memo which she intends to
send to the U.S. with instructions to alert people of the
world to stay indoors on December 21st

SUSAN POWERS
"If anyone had told me two days
ago, that I would be doing this
today..."


FATHER JOHN
"Thank you Susan."


Mary Kate rises from her seat and in a somewhat subdued
manner, extends her hand to Susan Powers

SUSAN SHAKES MARY KATE'HAND SMILING


SUSAN POWERS
"I'll send this out as top
priority." "Even if this turns out
to be nothing, I can simply say, I
miscalculated the trajectory of
the meteors."


FATHER JOHN
"Bless you Susan."


MARY KATE
"Yes, bless you Susan."


SUSAN POWERS
"I hope this all works out."

"This is rediculous."


FATHER JOHN
"There must be something we can
do."


MCFEERSON
"I don't think you can help me,
any more than you'll be able to
help yourselves." "Monsignor has
spoken."


MARY KATE
"We need a miracle."


FATHER JOHN
"And fast."

some help."
