MAIDEN AMERICA VISITS NEW YAWK

MAIDEN AMERICA VISITS NEW YORK

INT. HOTEL LIVING ROOM

MAIDEN AMERICA with a comfortable sprawl on leather sofa chair. Reads New American Bible on iPad.

"The Book of Deuteronomy has a history 

quite peculiar to itself. Its old 
traditions and law code (12-26) 
are put forth in the form of "discourses" 
of Moses before his death. 
The extraordinarily intense and hortatory 
tone fits the mood of a discourse. 
The book contains possibly the preaching 
of the Levites in the northern kingdom of Israel 
before its fall in 721 B.C. 
If this book is situated in its proper historical perspective, 
its true impact is more vividly appreciated. 
It is the blueprint of the great "Deuteronomic" reform 
under King Josiah (640-609 B.C.). 
This was an attempt to galvanize the people 
into a wholehearted commitment to the covenant ideals, 
into an obedience motivated by the 
great commandment of love (Deut 6:4ff). 
Israel has yet another chance, if it obeys. 
The people are poised between life and death; 
and they are exhorted to choose 
life--today (Deut 26:16-19; 30:15-20)."

 

POV - MAIDEN AMERICA pensive. Taps keyboard of iPad. TISH strolls into room.

MAIDEN AMERICA 

I wanna go shopping 
with DENIKA for a few hours.


TISH 

They just pulled into the garage downstairs. 
They'll be up here in a few minutes. 


MAIDEN AMERICA offers Town & Country open magazine to TISH.

MAIDEN AMERICA 

Look at these, Mom. Tory Burch. 
They have a showroom here in New York. 


TISH stands beside MAIDEN AMERICA, purviews magazine pages.

There's a new post at Tumblr.

Come on! Everybody! MILEY (actual character name: Fred) 
is leading a revolution … ! - from National Lampoon, April 1989

Adjectives bring no meaning to nouns 

Vapid verbs appear to move no air, make no sound 
I have an excellent command of the English language 
but words won’t rhyme I forget what I just thought, all the time. 
…,

I will be thrilled reading and watching timelines of young folk unravel secrets from the treatise and delving into Murgatroyd's future cognition. 
Encouraging you, MILEY Cyrus, to pursue this quest 
for ourselves will be all I want. 
…,


TISH (O.S.) 

A scene for a MILEY Dream is coming up. Interesting.

MILEY, imagine: we both have four, six years of academic education, training pertaining to "electrical systems." Five, ten years later, and we have these cool bio-chemo-electro-mechanical robots

Murgatroyd


that we both have been understanding the concepts of electrical systems with and, lately we have unsuccessfully attempted to install an ever increasingly complex Picture Three form of cognition 



Hanscyrus Three

upon this robot's computer system. While on the plane back from a Neural Coherence Conference, you turn to me, take hold of my arm. My eyes open and I turn my head and watch you speak the Nobel Prize winning clue, you saying (something such as), 
"The calcium in the bone of the skull. The spherical container of the skull … is composed of positively-charged calcium … thin on top, thickens on descent … may cause the NPN, PNP transistor juncture gap which creates a magnetic flux which holds and centers it, (i.e. that thing in the back of the eyes) …!" A moments thought and I respond with, "It may. On first thought, seems possible, yes." 

MILEY, you thought of it first! We arrive back at the complex and for weeks we're attempting to create a similar environment for that "thing" to reside inside the cute little robot I wrote about earlier. 


On a November 23rd we hold a news conference detailing the discovery we made and demonstrate to the world the functional system we have installed into that cute little robot. You bought? Hot Tuna's album Burgers, because of the Water Song.
MILEY, believe. 
Someday … Murgatroyd will live …!
