Thank you for voting!
FADE IN:
INT. DEN. HOME IN GARDEN OF EDEN - NIGHT
ADAM is reading the newspaper on the sofa while EVE types furiously away at the computer on the desk nearby.
ADAM
Are you still blogging?
EVE
I just have a few more comments to reply.
ADAM
I'm tired, Eve.
EVE
Why don't you go on ahead, my love.
I'll be there in a few minutes.
Adam neatly folds the newspaper and sets it on the end table. Rising,
ADAM
How about some warm milk?
EVE
That would be lovely.
Eve watches Adam disappear into the kitchen then returns to the computer.
INSERT EXCHANGES BETWEEN EVE AND ABRA ON THE COMPUTER.
EVE
Abra, our relationship is in the Dead Sea!
It's been the same routine for hundreds of years.
ABRA
But, Eve, you're the most revered couple in history.
People worship you.
EVE
(flustered)
I don't want to be revered or worshipped.
I just want Adam to look at me the way he did on the day God created us.
Is that too much to ask?!
ABRA
All right, let me think.
Have you ever tried pasties?
EVE
Abra, I invented pasties. Leaves. Remember?
ABRA
True. I've got it! A love potion!
EVE
You've got to do better than that...
Eve stops, frozen, as Adam sets her glass of warm milk beside the computer. She manages to press the Escape key without him noticing, then turns to him.
EVE
Thank you, dear.
ADAM
So, all done?
EVE
Wha...? Oh, yes. Yes.
She picks up the glass of milk and sips. A message pops up on the computer screen.
ADAM
Are you feeling all right, Eve?
EVE
Yes, of course.
(laughs nervously)
Why wouldn't I?
ADAM
Because Abra just sent you a message to take Jasmine, Neroli, Lavender, Myrtle, and Ylang Ylang. Then Tangerine, Bergamot and Blood Orange with Zdravetz, Sandalwood, Nutmeg and Ginger wrapped in Vanilla, Cinnamon and Cardamon.
Disbelievingly, Eve watches Adam's expression transform. He grins boyishly.
ADAM
Eve, my darling, my love...
Eve turns the computer off, then turns to Adam, beaming. She leads him by the hand up the stairs. Under her breath,
EVE
(sighs)
God bless its pentium chip heart.

Z is for Zorro?
And the winners are:
Zorro - Antonio Banderas (69%)
Lolita - Catherine-Zeta Jones (69%)
Fray Felipe - John Goodman (60%)
Thank you for voting!
FADE IN:
EXT. VILLAGE. 1820's LOS ANGELES - DAY
A crowd of PEONS watch SOLDIERS posting a DEAD OR ALIVE Bulletin for the capture of ZORRO. Suddenly, a galloping horse flies into the crowd. Zorro marks his signature Z into the side of the building. Galloping from the opposite direction,
another Zorro appears, carving a Z adjacent to the first.
Perplexed, peons and soldiers surround the two dismounted Zorros who study one another suspiciously, hands on the hilt of their swords.
ZORRO
En guarde!
The two dual like devils; each lunging, retreating, circling, lunging, retreating, and so on for an hour. Peons are taking a siesta; soldiers are resting against the side of the building; the two Zorros clinging to one another in exhaustion.
FRAY FELIPE appears. As Zorro turns to him, his hat falls releasing locks of long, glistening hair; perspiration clinging to and outlining a sultry, feminine body.
ZORRO
Lolita?
Lolita drops her sword, then sensually straightens out her hair.
LOLITA
Ah, exhilerating!
(amused)
Not Lolita, but Z.
Peons stir; soldiers scratch their heads.
Smiling seductively, she steps closely towards Zorro. She caresses his face then rips off his mask, revealing Zorro's true identity.
FRAY FELIPE
Diego?
LOLITA
Yes. It is Diego!
DIEGO
Why Lolita? Why would you do this to me?
LOLITA
Because I am the true Zorro! Tell them!
Diego studies the questioning crowd.
DIEGO
(bowing his head)
Yes. It is true.
LOLITA
Ha ha ha! No one can defeat Z!
Another Zorro appears, gallops passed Lolita, and snatches her up onto his horse. They disappear into the sunset.
DIEGO
Z is for Zorro?

Thank you for voting!
FADE IN:
EXT. ORNATE FOUNTAIN. MT. OLYMPUS - DAY
ZEUS stands facing the fountain; his wife, HERA, sitting on its edge. Zeus waves his hand over the fountain. Images of the Beijing Olympic Games appear in the water.
ZEUS
Just in time.
HERA
Archery?
ZEUS
The semifinals.
(exasperated)
How could he miss? This is his chance for a medal!
HERA
There is no better archer than you, my love.
Zeus is intensely fixed on the archer placing last of the four finalists.
ZEUS
Hera, I'll be back in time for dinner.
HERA
Where are you going?
In a flash, Zeus is gone.
EXT. THE OLYMPIC GREEN ARCHERY FIELD. BEIJING - DAY
Zeus strides through the crowds, disguised as a spectator. He shakes his head as he watches the ARCHER continue to lose. Zeus disappears; the Archer shivering as an unusual sensation overtakes him.
As the Archer releases his arrow, it makes a dead-on bullseye. He waits his next turn confidently, regally. He makes another bullseye, then another, finally, a Robin Hood and wins the Gold medal.

INT. MEDALS PODIUM - NIGHT
After the medals ceremony, the MEDIA flank him; a female JOURNALIST holds a microphone to his mouth.
JOURNALIST
I've never seen anything like your performance!
(grinning)
You were like a god out there.
ARCHER
Well, I had some help.
JOURNALIST
From?
ARCHER
(as he steps intimately closer)
We can talk about it over a quiet dinner.
JOURNALIST
Zeus. It's Hera.

Afraid of Clark Gable?
And the winners are:
Belle: It's a tie between Joan Cusack and Reese Witherspoon (30% each)
Eddie: Bill Murray (41%)
Thank you for voting!
FADE IN:
INT. STAGE. CARNEGIE HALL - NIGHT
APPLAUSE accompanies a famous MAGICIAN after finishing his Disappeariang Act. He turns to the audience and bows.
MAGICIAN
Thank you. Now, for my next act, I will need two volunteers.
A scattering of people in the audience rise. A COUPLE wearing baseball caps in the second row LAUGH in excitement. The magician points to them; gestures they join him onstage. When they arrive,
MAGICIAN
And what is your name, sir?
MAN
Eddie.
MAGICIAN
Very nice to meet you, Eddie. And is this your lovely wife?
EDDIE
My soon to be wife, Belle.
MAGICIAN
And a belle you are.
Belle grins bashfully; hands clasped nervously below her waist.
MAGICIAN
Now, this act is about our fears. Most of us have some type of phobia. A fear of heights, for example, or of snakes.
He turns to Eddie.
MAGICIAN
Hold out your cap, would you please, Eddie? And close your eyes. Now, think of something you're afraid of.
Eddie closes his eyes.
MAGICIAN
(gently prodding)
Think...think.
Out of Eddie's hat crawls a tarantula.
MAGICIAN
Slowly open your eyes, Eddie.
Eddie GASPS at the sight of the spider he's deathly afraid of, immediately dropping his cap to the stage floor. The audience APPLAUDS wholeheartedly while the magician's assistant appears to pick up the cap, then leaves.
MAGICIAN
Are you ready, Belle?
She squirms as she nods.
MAGICIAN
All right then. Take off your cap, close your eyes, and think of what scares you most.
Belle closes her eyes, squeezing them tightly. The audience begins to LAUGH. Eddie retreats. The magician looks puzzled. Belle beams from ear to ear.
MAGICIAN
You're afraid of Clark Gable?
BELLE
Not at all. I'm just terrified of marrying Eddie.
(turns to Clark)
Ready, Mr. Gable?
Arm in arm, they walk off the stage together; Eddie scratching his head.
