FADE IN:

INT. DORM CORRIDOR - DAY

Only voices can be heard.

MARTIN
(LINDYs boyfriend)
I don't know. She's like reading my
mind.

JULIA
(LINDYs best friend)
Oh, come on MARTIN! You really
believe that?

MARTIN
Yes, I do! She always...

JULIA
She always seems to know what's
inside your head.

MARTIN
Yeah. How...

JULIA
See, you're predictable.

JULIA opens a door and enters the corridor followed by


MARTIN.

MARTIN
I don't know. Maybe you're right,
Julia, but it still seems too
strange to me.

JULIA
Just forget about it, Martin!
MARTIN
Ah... It's easier to say it than to
forget it. Plus, she's doing it all
the time.

JULIA
I'll speak to her, okay. Just
forget about this.

MARTIN
Alright, alright.

JULIA
God, I hate it when she's late!

JULIA AND MARTIN pass by the camera.


FADE OUT
2.

CUT TO:

INT. LINDY'S ROOM - MORNING

CAMERA slides back from LINDY's eyes. She sits in the middle
of the room on a yoga carpet, meditating.

JULIA knocks on the door. LINDY opens her eyes.

LINDY is 23 with a cute girl-next-door face.

JULIA
LINDY! Are you here?

LINDY
Just a moment!

JULIA
Hurry up! We're going to get late.

LINDY
I'm coming!

LINDY grabs her phone and puts it in her purse. She puts her
jacket on while opening the door.

INT. DORM CORRIDOR - DAY

JULIA and MARTIN stand in front of LINDY's room. She gets


out.

LINDY
Hey, guys!

LINDY gives them a guilty smile.

JULIA
Let's go! We don't want to miss the
bus.

MARTIN
Hi, babe!

MARTIN and LINDY kiss and all three start walking through
the corridor.

JULIA
So, why did it take you so long to
get ready?

LINDY
I was meditating.

MARTIN
Meditating? Really? Now?
3.

LINDY
Yeah, and no MARTIN - meditation is
not less important than Steve Jobs'
speech.

MARTIN
See? She did it again, JULIA!

JULIA
I thought you're going to say that,
too. Don't be silly, MARTIN! LINDY
can't read thoughts. Right, LINDY?

LINDY looks at the ground.

LINDY
Yeah. Yeah, sure.

CUT TO:

INT. COLLEGE AUDITORIUM - DAY

The auditorium is full with over two thousand students.

LINDY, MARTIN and JULIA enter the hall. They take their
seats on the right side of the stage.

JULIA
This is so awesome! Steve Jobs
himself will have a speech
specially for us!

LINDY
Yeah, I'm so excited!

MARTIN
Big deal.
JULIA
Shut up!

LINDY
Hmm... I wonder what is it to have
the mind of one of the greatest
people alive.

MARTIN
Why don't you read his thoughts,
like you do with me?

LINDY
I actually might do that!

JULIA laughs.
Suddenly everyone in the auditorium stops talking.

MARTIN
Here he comes!
4.

Says MARTIN in excitement.

LINDY
Wasn't it a "big deal"?

MARTIN
Shut up!

He kisses her.

JULIA
There he is!

STEVE JOBS appears on stage and everyone applause. As he


stands on the microphone everyone holds still.

STEVE JOBS
Good afternoon, graduates! I'm very
happy to be here with you today...

As STEVE is talking, LINDY focuses and tries to break into


his mind. She succeeds.

FADE TO BLACK

FADE IN:

INT. STEVE'S MIND

LINDY is standing in a conference room. There is a large


table with several people sitting by it. STEVE is standing
up, talking to them. Behind him is visible the Apple logo.
STEVE JOBS
Okay, so here is the idea. We're
going to sell the iPhones at
incredibly large prices.

One of the guys sitting by the table interrupts him.

WILSON
But why? People are not going to
buy them then.

STEVE JOBS
That's why we're going to promote
our phones claiming to be the best.
PR, Wilson, PR. So, as I said
that's the idea.
LINDY gets closer and nobody sees her. She's watching a
memory.
5.

STEVE JOBS
When we release our seventh phone,
we're going to sell it for 15
percent of the usual price.

WILSON
Yet, I don't see why?

STEVE JOBS
Because, the iPhone 7 will come
with a micro-chip that will be
implanted in people's arms. This
chip will give them the power to
control their phones with their
thoughts.

WILSON
And how are we profiting from that?

STEVE JOBS
By not telling them that the chip
also has the vise-versa function -
the phone controlling their
thoughts.

WILSON
Hmm...

All men start thinking about that and discussing it.

STEVE JOBS
Order!

They all go silent.

STEVE JOBS
We can make them buy anything we
want then. All of our products, on
any price. What do you think?

WILSON
That's why we love you, STEVE!
You're a genius!

STEVE JOBS
So, you like it.

WILSON
I think we love it!

LINDY looks scared by what she just heard.

LINDY
Oh, no... This can't be true!
FADE TO BLACK
6.

FADE IN:

INT. COLLEGE AUDITORIUM - DAY

LINDY wakes up scared. She stands up.

MARTIN
Hey! Where are you going?

LINDY doesn't turn around and keeps walking.

MARTIN
LINDY! Are you okay?

MARTIN stands up and follows her. They exit the hall.

EXT. AUDITORIUM'S BALCONY - A MINUTE LATER

LINDY sits on one of the chairs placed on the balcony.


MARTIN comes out.

MARTIN
Hey, babe. What's going on?

LINDY
Nothing...

MARTIN
Why did you come here? I thought
you were excited about this speech.

LINDY
I was... Until...

MARTIN
Until what?

LINDY
Nothing...

MARTIN
It's not nothing, LINDY. Come on,
you know you can tell me.

LINDY gives him a sad and scared look.

LINDY
I... I can't. You wouldn't
understand...

MARTIN
Come on, babe! If I can't
understand you, who else?

LINDY thinks for a moment, staring at the sky.


7.

LINDY
Okay... But promise me you won't
tell anyone.

MARTIN
I promise.

LINDY
And that you won't freak out.

MARTIN
Okay, I promise.

LINDY
Say it.

MARTIN
Alright. I promise that I won't
freak out and I won't tell anyone.
Now, will you tell me what's going
on?

LINDY
I can read thoughts and enter
people's minds.

MARTIN does a shocked expression.

MARTIN
What?

LINDY
You promised you won't freak out!

MARTIN
Okay, so it's true that you were
reading my mind?
LINDY
Yes.

MARTIN
And... You know everything that I'm
thinking about?

LINDY
Yes, MARTIN. I know that you like
scratching your butt when no one
watches and I know that you have a
fear from clowns.

MARTIN
Oh god...
MARTIN blushes.
8.

LINDY
Hey! I'm still your girlfriend
despite all of your little secrets.
At least you're honest with me.

MARTIN
I love you!

MARTIN hugs her.

MARTIN
So, why exactly did you come out
here?

LINDY
I... I was in STEVE JOBS' mind. I
thought it will be cool but no.

MARTIN
Why? What did you see?

LINDY
Horrible thing, MARTIN. I... I wish
I didn't penetrate his memories.

MARTIN
What is so horrible, LINDY?

LINDY
He... He wants to conquer the world
and control people's thoughts.

MARTIN
Isn't he already doing it? Ha-ha!

MARTIN giggles.
LINDY
It's not funny, MARTIN! I saw him
speaking with some men and
discussing the new iPhone 7 that
will come with a body implant...

MARTIN interrupts her.

MARTIN
iPhone 7? LINDY they just released
iPhone 4S. What are you talking
about?

LINDY
I... I don't know. It's his memory.

MARTIN
Are you sure that you always see
true things? It might have been a
dream of his or just a fantasy.
9.

LINDY
I hope I'm not right...

MARTIN
You're not. I'm sure about that.
STEVE looks like a good man, plus
he's a genius.

LINDY
Yeah... Maybe you're right!

MARTIN
Sure I am! Come on, let's get back
there.

LINDY
Alright.

LINDY stands up and kisses MARTIN.

LINDY
I love you too!

INT. COLLEGE AUDITORIUM - DAY

LINDY and MARTIN enter back. They bump on JULIA.

JULIA
Hey! Where have you been? You
missed most of STEVE's speech.

LINDY
I... I needed some fresh air. I
felt dizzy for a moment.

STEVE JOBS
...I'll give you one last advice
before you officially graduate -
follow your dreams and never give
up!

Everyone starts applauding and STEVE leaves the stage.

JULIA
Come on! Let's stop him at the
back. Maybe he'll give us an
autograph!

JULIA grabs LINDY's hand and starts running.

INT. BACKSTAGE

JULIA and LINDY manage to catch STEVE JOBS right after he


leaves the stage.
JULIA
Mr. JOBS!

STEVE turns around.


10.

JULIA
Mr. JOBS, your speech was so
inspiring! I wanted to say thank
you!

STEVE JOBS
I thank you for listening to me,
miss...

JULIA
Stark. JULIA Stark.

STEVE JOBS
Thank you, JULIA! And who is your
friend?

He looks at LINDY and steps towards her.

LINDY
LINDY, sir. LINDY McDIAMOND.

STEVE JOBS
Nice to meet you, LINDY!

They handshake. LINDY has a vision.

CUT TO:

INT. LINDY'S VISION - DARK ROOM

STEVE JOBS is sitting on a golden throne. Behind him there


is a pyramid with an eye on it and two pharaohs beside it.

STEVE is looking evil and bites from a red apple.

STEVE JOBS
The world is mine!
He says while chewing the apple bite.

INT. BACKSTAGE

LINDY pulls her hand quickly and runs away.

STEVE JOBS
Uh...

JULIA
I have no idea, sir. Thank you,
again!

JULIA turns around and starts walking. STEVE does the same.

MATCH CUT TO:


11.

INT. COLLEGE AUDITORIUM - DAY

JULIA looks for LINDY and bumps into MARTIN.

MARTIN
Hey!

JULIA
Hey. Have you seen LINDY?

MARTIN
I thought she was with you.

JULIA
Yeah. We spoke to STEVE and when
they handshaked she pulled her hand
and ran away.

MARTIN
What the...

JULIA
Yeah, I feel the same.

MARTIN
I'll call her.

MARTIN takes his phone out of his pocket and calls LINDY.

MARTIN
She doesn't pick up.

JULIA
What is going on...?

MARTIN
I have no idea. Maybe she went back
home.

JULIA
I'll take a look around and you go
check at her place, okay?

MARTIN
Alright.

MARTIN turns around and leaves the auditorium. JULIA starts


looking around the hall.

INT. LINDY'S ROOM - DAY

LINDY rushes into her room and closes the door. She sits on
the ground slowly, sliding her back on the door.
LINDY
This can't be true...

She speaks to herself and starts crying.


12.

FADE TO BLACK

INT. LINDY'S ROOM - DAY

LINDY stands up and wipes her tears. She again speaks to


herself.

LINDY
I should meditate on this!

She grabs a couple of crystals from the shelf and sits on


the carpet, placing the stones in front of her. She crosses
her legs and closes her eyes.

CUT TO:

EXT. APPLE BUILDING - DAY

STEVE JOBS gets out of a car and enters the building.

INT. LINDY'S ROOM - DAY

LINDY is meditating on the floor when MARTIN knocks on the


door.

MARTIN
LINDY?

LINDY doesn't seem to hear that continues meditating.

MARTIN
LINDY? Are you here?

He knocks harder on the door. LINDY opens her eyes and


slowly gets up. She opens the door and lets MARTIN in.

MARTIN
What's going on? JULIA said you ran
away.

LINDY
I'm sorry. I...

LINDY hugs him and starts crying on his chest.

MARTIN
Hey... What happened..?

MARTIN worries about her and hugs her tightly. LINDY doesn't
say anything, just keeps crying.

MARTIN
LINDY... Is this about the mind
reading thing?
LINDY keeps silent.
13.

INT. APPLE CONFERENCE ROOM - DAY

STEVE JOBS enters the room.Inside there is a large table


with three men sitting by it. JOBS speaks as he walks.

STEVE JOBS
Good day, gentlemen.

Everyone stands up and STEVE takes his seat on the director


chair. Everyone sits back down.

STEVE JOBS
I'm happy to tell you that the time
has come for me to introduce you a
brand new strategy.

JAMESON
Strategy for which sector?

STEVE JOBS
None, JAMESON. It's a brand new
marketing sector. It's humans.

WILSON
What do you mean humans? We sell to
humans, yeah.

JONES
What? You have an idea how to sell
iPhones to monkeys?

STEVE JOBS
Close one, JONES. Really close one.
We're going to sell thoughts,
gentlemen.

WILSON
What? Ha-ha! Nice joke, STEVE. Now
head to the real point of this
meeting.

STEVE JOBS
I'm not joking, WILSON! Here, take
a look.

STEVE plugs in his iPhone to a cable and grabs a remote. He


turns on a projector and shows everyone the plans for the
new device on the whiteboard behind them. They all turn
around.

STEVE JOBS
This is our brand new device.

JAMESON
What is that?

WILSON
And how does it work?
14.

STEVE switches the presentation slide and shows a graph of a


human with the device on his arm.

STEVE JOBS
The laboratory of Rockefeller have
developed a micro-chip that can
transmit electric impulses that the
brain corresponds to, the same way
it does to thoughts.

WILSON
You're serious about this?

STEVE JOBS
Yes, I am. The only detail is that
the chip must be implanted inside
the body.

JAMESON
And how do we do that?

WILSON
And how will we profit from this?

STEVE JOBS
Really, WILSON? You can control
people's thoughts and you don't
know how to profit from that?

WILSON
Hm...

STEVE JOBS
We must make a drastic change in
our current marketing strategies.
Our next phone will cost twice as
much as the 4S.
WILSON
But why? People are not going to
buy them then.

STEVE JOBS
The idea is to make iPhone 5 and
iPhone 6 insanely expensive. That
way our phones will become a luxury
and everyone will want them. When
we release our seventh phone, we're
going to sell it for a $100 -
affordable price for anyone.

WILSON
Yet, I don't see why?
STEVE JOBS
Because, we can use this chip also
to give the people the ability to
control their phones with their
(MORE)
15.

STEVE JOBS (cont'd)


thoughts. At the same time we will
emmit thoughts to every chip to buy
only our products.

WILSON
Hmm...

JAMESON
This is genius!

JONES
Eliminate the competition and
enslave the customers. You're a
genius!

STEVE JOBS
So, you like it?

WILSON
Sounds good to me.

STEVE JOBS
Then we begin.

INT. LINDY'S ROOM - DAY

MARTIN is hugging LINDY and JULIA sits next to them.

MARTIN
Look, this thing is not real,
LINDY!

JULIA
Seriously, it's time to tell me
what you're talking about!
LINDY
Alright... But don't freak out.

JULIA
Okay. Go ahead.

LINDY
I can read minds.

JULIA
Ha-ha! What?

LINDY
You believe it and you know it to
be true, but you're fooling
yourself right now because earlier
you told MARTIN that he's freaking
out and there's no such thing.

JULIA
How... How do you know that?
16.

MARTIN
Told you! She can read thoughts.

JULIA
Oh God... So, you were inside
STEVE's head?

LINDY
Exactly... I saw horrible things...

JULIA
Like what?

LINDY
He has a plan on how to conquer the
world and enslave everyone.

MARTIN
Come on, LIN! We spoke about that
earlier... There's probably some
glitch in your gift or something...

LINDY
But...

JULIA
But what? Come on, this sounds like
some low-budget movie, LINDY.

LINDY
I saw him sitting on a throne,
eating an apple.

MARTIN
Just like a bad movie... Come on,
LIN. This is not true, you know it!
LINDY
Maybe... Maybe you're right...

JULIA
Sure we are. However, you have to
show me what you can do with that
gift! We can use it

LINDY
Hell no! I'm not using my gift for
profit, JUL.

JULIA
Alright, alright.

MARTIN
Come on. Let's go out somewhere.
LINDY
Sounds like a good idea.

They all get up and exit the room.


17.

TIME CUT:

ONE WEEK LATER.

EXT. A PARK - DAY

LINDY and MARTIN are sitting on the grass, giggling and


kissing. LINDY doesn't seem to remember anything about the
vision.

CUT TO:

ONE MONTH LATER.

INT. THE MALL - DAY

LINDY and JULIA are shopping at the mall.

CUT TO:

FEW YEARS LATER.

INT. LINDY'S HOME - NIGHT

LINDY is washing the dishes in the kitchen. The TV from the


other room is loud, so she can hear it.

TV
...and now, breaking news. Just a
few minutes ago, one of the
greatest minds that ever existed -
STEVE JOBS, has passed away.

LINDY hears that and leaves the dishes, going to the other
room. She stands in front of the TV, feeling kind of
relieved that her vision is not true.
TV
From Apple have decided to release
the new iPhone 7 at the amazing
price of only $50 in memory of
STEVE JOBS.

LINDY looks at the TV suspiciously.

TV
The brand new iPhone can be
controlled by thoughts, says Apple
director Greg WILSON. Every
customer will receive a micro-chip
and a special tool to safely
implant it in any part of the body.

LINDY falls to the ground in shock.


FADE TO BLACK
18.

FADE IN:

INT. LINDY'S ROOM - LATER THAT NIGHT

LINDY is sitting on the yoga carpet, meditating. MARTIN


knocks on the door. She gets up and opens.

MARTIN
Hey! I came as fast as I could.
What's up?

He asks worried and hugs her.

LINDY
You have to see for yourself.

LINDY grabs her laptop and googles the latest news. She
plays the news and after the video is over she closes the
lid.

LINDY
See? It's true...

MARTIN
I... I don't know what to say.

LINDY
There's nothing to be said, MARTI.
We need to figure out how to stop
this!

MARTIN
I don't think we can do anything...

LINDY
There has to be something.

LINDY's phone rings and she picks up. It's JULIA.

JULIA
Hey! Have you watched the news?

LINDY
Yeah, I did.

JULIA
Are you home?

LINDY
Yeah. I'm with MARTIN.

JULIA
Can I come, too?

LINDY
Yeah, sure.
19.

JULIA
Okay, because I'm on my way
already. I'll be there in twenty
minutes.

JULIA hangs up and LINDY leaves her phone at the desk.

MARTIN
Okay, let's think about it. We
can't do anything but there has to
be someone who can.

LINDY
Good point.

CUT TO:

INT. LINDY'S ROOM - TWENTY MINUTES LATER

LINDY and MARTIN are sitting on the ground, deeply thinking


about how to stop Apple's plan. JULIA knocks on the door.

LINDY gets up and opens.

JULIA
Hey!

LINDY
Hey. Why did you come?

JULIA
Your vision seems to be true,
LINDY. We have to do something
about it.

LINDY
I thought you don't want to be
involved in this since I told you
what your father really thinks of
you.

JULIA
Yeah, well. I didn't believe you
back then and I'm sorry for that.

LINDY
Thanks!

MARTIN
We can't figure out anything, JUL.
Do you have any ideas?

LINDY sits back on the ground and JULIA follows.


JULIA
Well... We can't fight Apple,
but...
20.

MARTIN
But?

JULIA
They are leaders of the phone
market, right?

LINDY
Get straight to the point.

JULIA
I'm saying that there's already
someone who fights them in
anything. We just have to figure
out who that is.

MARTIN
Well, their biggest competition is
Samsung.

LINDY
Exactly! If we can get Samsung's
director to know about this evil
plan maybe we can stop it.

JULIA
But why would they believe us? We
don't have any proof.

MARTIN
We must try.

LINDY
Alright. Let's check when their
main office building opens doors.

LINDY grabs her laptop and quickly checks on the


information.

LINDY
Seven. We should be there around
eight.

JULIA
Better get some sleep then.

LINDY
You can sleep in the kitchen, JUL.
The couch turns into a bed when
unfolded.

JULIA
Sounds good to me.
MARTIN
What about me?

LINDY
You get to sleep with me, silly.
21.

LINDY kisses him.

FADE TO BLACK

EXT. SAMSUNG BUILDING - MORNING

A car arrives in front of the building entrance. MARTIN,


LINDY and JULIA get off and head to the building. The guards
stop them.

GUARD
Where are you going?

JULIA
We need to speak with the director.

GUARD
You'll have to leave all your items
before entering.

LINDY
Alright.

They take out all of their items into plastic boxes and one
of the guards puts them in lockers, while the other one
checks them for weapons.

GUARD
Good. You're clear. Head to the
information desk.

MARTIN
Thank you.

CUT TO:

INT. SAMSUNG BUILDING


All three head to the information desk. LINDY leads.

DESK WORKER
Good morning. How can I help you?

LINDY
We're here to speak to the
director.

DESK WORKER
Do you have an appointment?

LINDY
No.

DESK WORKER
I'm afraid I can't let you in
without an appointment.

LINDY
Okay, when can we do that?
22.

DESK WORKER
Well... The earliest free hour is
in two weeks.

MARTIN
Two weeks?

JULIA
We can't wait that long.

DESK WORKER
I'm sorry. MR.SANDERS is a busy
person.

LINDY
Alright. Thank you!

DESK WORKER
Have a nice day!

All three head to the exit. They get their stuff from the
guards and go out.

CUT TO:

EXT. SAMSUNG BUILDING

LINDY, MARTIN and JULIA get outside the building and enter
back in MARTIN's car.

INT. MARTIN'S CAR

MARTIN
What do we do now?

JULIA
I have no idea.
LINDY
The director also goes out for
lunch break, right?

MARTIN
I guess so.

LINDY
Then if we can't get inside, we're
going to wait for him to get out.

JULIA
Yeah! We don't need an appointment
outside of the building.

MARTIN
And what? We wait here four hours?
23.

LINDY
Yes, MARTIN! The world depends on
us to save it from mental slavery.
We can't afford to let our only
chance slip!

MARTIN
You've got a point.

JULIA
Okay, but how do we know who's the
director?

MARTIN
There should be a picture of him
somewhere around the internet.

MARTIN takes out his phone and starts digging. He opens a


picture of SANDERS and shows it to LINDY and JULIA.

MARTIN
Okay, we're looking for this guy.

LINDY
Plus, I doubt the director will
walk alone.

JULIA
Yeah, there should be guards with
him.

MARTIN
I'll go get some coffee.

LINDY
So, now you are reading my mind,
huh?
All three laugh and MARTIN goes out of the car to get
coffee.

TIME CUT:

TWO HOURS LATER.

JULIA is taking selfies and MARTIN is playing a game on his


phone. LINDY is constantly staring at the building's
entrance.

LINDY
Come on, guys! Am I the only one
who pays attention to what's going
on?
MARTIN
Babe, there are two hours until the
lunch break.
24.

LINDY
And what if he goes out earlier?
What if we miss him?

MARTIN keeps on playing without saying anything.

CUT TO:

EXT. SAMSUNG BUILDING

LINDY, MARTIN and JULIA have got out of the car and stand in
front of the Samsung building entrance, waiting.

LINDY
Come on! It's twelve-thirty
already. Everyone should be out
already.

JULIA
What if they have a restaurant or
something like it inside the
building?

MARTIN
Possible. That's Samsung after all.

LINDY
Come on... Wait! There he is!

SANDERS and his two guards come out of the building. LINDY
rushes towards him.

LINDY
MR. SANDERS!

One of the guards pushes her away.


SANDERS
I don't have time for the press
right now!

SANDERS and his guards keep on walking towards a car. LINDY,


MARTIN and JULIA follow them.

LINDY
I'm not from the press!

SANDERS
Well, I don't have time for
autographs too.

LINDY
I'm here to tell you something,
MR.SANDERS!
SANDERS
Make an appointment!
25.

One of the guards gets in the car to drive and the other one
opens the door for SANDERS.

LINDY
It's about the new iPhone!

SANDERS was about to sit in the car when he freezes and


slowly gets back out.

LINDY
Oh, now I got your attention.

SANDERS
What about that phone?

LINDY
It's designed to control people's
thoughts, MR.SANDERS.

SANDERS suddenly looks worried.

SANDERS
Who are you? Are you from Apple?

LINDY
No. Look, I really need to talk to
you.

SANDERS
Get in.

SANDERS sits in the vehicle and the guard closes the door.
He goes to the other side and opens the other door. LINDY
sits in and MARTIN follows.

SANDERS
Only you.
MARTIN looks at LINDY.

LINDY
It's ok.

MARTIN
You sure?

LINDY
Yeah. I'll be fine, don't worry.

MARTIN
Alright. We'll wait for you here.

The guard closes the door and the vehicle pulls off to the
road.
INT. SANDER'S VEHICLE

LINDY and SANDERS sit at the back.


26.

SANDERS
Now, tell me who are you and how do
you know this?

LINDY
Look, I don't work for anyone and
it's a long story how I know about
this.

SANDERS
I have time.

SANDERS touches the guard's shoulder.

SANDERS
Drive around for a while.

GUARD
Yes, sir.

SANDERS
Now, will you tell me how do you
have access to classified
information?

LINDY
You won't believe me.

SANDERS
Try me.

LINDY
Well... I know it from STEVE JOBS
himself.

SANDERS
He told you about his plan to rule
over the world? Why I don't believe
you.

LINDY
He didn't tell me. I... I can read
thoughts.

SANDERS laughs.

SANDERS
Ha-ha! Nice one. Then what am I
thinking about right now?

LINDY focus for a moment, staring into SANDERS' eyes.

LINDY
You think about your secretary,
Jennifer. You think about how
you're going to have sex with her
in your office after you get back
to work.
27.

SANDERS pulls his shirt, looking uncomfortable.

SANDERS
How... How do you do that?

LINDY
Long story. The thing is how do you
know about JOBS' plan?

SANDERS
Can't you find out by reading my
mind?

LINDY
Look, I'm not wasting my energy
when you can simply tell me. The
world is about to be enslaved and
every second is precious.

SANDERS
You've got a point. Well, I have
'mole' inside Apple.

LINDY
Someone on top?

SANDERS
Yes. Actually, I was about to meet
that person now. If everything is
going as planned, he will sabotage
the production of iPhone 7.

LINDY
And if it doesn't go as planned?

SANDERS
Then we're all doomed.
LINDY
So, you know about this devil work
and you want to stop it?

SANDERS
Exactly. Look, I suggest that you
go home and forget about this.

LINDY
How can I forget about a world
domination conspiracy?

SANDERS
If the mole betrays me then I'll do
everything possible to expose that
micro-chip fuctions and shut down
Apple. Don't worry about this,
there's nothing you can do.

LINDY
But...
28.

SANDERS
Look...?

LINDY
LINDY.

SANDERS
...LINDY. Go back to your regular
life and just watch the news every
day. Either you'll see that Apple
suspend the release of iPhone 7 or
their conspiracy exposed publicly.

LINDY
Are you sure there's nothing I can
do?

SANDERS
Yes. I'm sure I have more power
than you, so just leave this in my
hands, ok?

LINDY
Okay.

LINDY smiles and SANDERS smiles back. He touches the guard's


shoulder again.

SANDERS
Take us back to the office.

The guard just nods and turns around the car.

EXT. SAMSUNG BUILDING


MARTIN and JULIA are walking in circles, worried of what's
going on.

MARTIN
Why is it taking so long?

JULIA
I don't know... Maybe they sat
somewhere to eat and talk.

MARTIN
I'll call her.

MARTIN pulls out his phone and right when he dials LINDY,
SANDERS' car arrives. LINDY gets off and the car leaves
again.
MARTIN
Hey! What happened?

LINDY
You won't believe it.
29.

JULIA
He doesn't care, does he?

LINDY
Vise-versa.

MARTIN
He agreed to help us?

LINDY
Nope. He already knows about this
and is doing everything to stop it.

JULIA
Yes!

JULIA jumps in happiness.

LINDY
It appears that someone from the
top levels of Apple is working for
SANDERS and will sabotage the
production of the new phone.

MARTIN
Awesome! So, we don't have to do
anything?

LINDY
Yes. You can go back to playing
your stupid games.

MARTIN
They're not stupid! It takes
intelligence and focus to defeat
the zombies!
LINDY
Yeah, sure.

LINDY and JULIA laugh.

JULIA
Let's go eat somewhere?

LINDY
Good idea.

They enter MARTIN's car and leave.

INT. A RESTAURANT - DAY

SANDERS is sitting at a table, drinking coffee. A man in


suit comes close and sits against him.

CAMERA SHOWS SANDERS' FACE FROM BEHIND OF THE MAN'S


SHOULDER.

SANDERS
Do you have it?

CAMERA cuts straight to the suited man's face. It's WILSON.

WILSON
Here.

He places a folder on the table and slides it to SANDERS. He


opens it and takes a look at the files.

SANDERS
Great.

WILSON
Without these plans a production is
not possible. We've made only eight
phones by now, so I would say my
part is done.

SANDERS
I'll make you the co-director of
Samsung as soon as I see official
news that the production has
stopped.

WILSON
Good. See you soon then.
WILSON gets up and leaves. SANDERS looks again at the folder
and smiles.

CUT TO:

INT. LINDY'S HOME - NIGHT

LINDY and MARTIN are lying on the bed, watching TV.

LINDY
I'm so happy that everything ended.

MARTIN
Yeah. iPhone production stopped due
to technical issues. Ha-ha!

LINDY
We saved the world!

MARTIN
Didn't SANDERS do it?
31.

LINDY
Shut up! It was us.

They both start giggling and kissing when a commercial on TV


interrupts them.

TV
Get the brand new Samsung Galaxy S8
Edge, now with the holo-chip,
allowing you to control your Galaxy
with your own thoughts.

LINDY rises.

LINDY
What?!
