Lost Voyage Page #2

---

- LOOKS THAT WAY.

- I'M WORKING AN ANGLE RIGHT NOW.

- GREAT, GREAT.

- LISTEN, YOU GOT A MINUTE?

- SURE.

- I'VE BEEN TALKING TO THE SUITS.

- AND?

AND...

THERE SEEMS TO BE SOME

CONCERN ABOUT THE RATINGS,

TALK ABOUT NEW BLOOD.

JULIE.

SHE'S ATTRACTIVE,

SHE'S BRIGHT.

SHE FITS RIGHT INTO THE

- SO I'M TOO OLD NOW?

- NOBODY IS SAYING THAT.

THEY JUST WANT TO TRY

HER OUT ONCE IN AWHILE.

YOU KNOW, THROW HER A FIELD

ASSIGNMENT NOW AND THEN.

WHAT ABOUT ME? I HAVE SPEN THE PAST THREE YEARS

TRYING TO BUILD THIS SHOW

INTO SOMETHING RESPECTABLE.

AND YOU'VE DONE A GREAT JOB.

BUT JUST...

THEY FEEL IT'S

TIME FOR A CHANGE.

MIKE, I'M ONTO A BIG

STORY RIGHT NOW.

CAN WE DO THIS LATER?

WE CAN DO IT ANYTIME

YOU WANT, DANA.

BUT IT'S TIME FOR JULIE

TO START MOVING UP.

DON'T FIGHT ME ON THIS.

IS THAT A THREAT?

NO, IT'S GOOD CAREER ADVICE.

HI. AARON ROBERTS?

- I'M DANA.

- DANA ELWAY.

- NICE TO MEET YOU.

- YOU WATCH MY SHOW?

JOURNALS OF THE UNEXPLAINED?

SOMETIMES.

YOU LOOK BETTER IN PERSON.

OH, THANK YOU. I THINK.

I KNOW WHAT YOU'RE HERE FOR.

WOULD YOU LIKE TO COME IN?

THANKS.

MR. ROBERTS, I'M A

LITTLE PRESSED FOR TIME,

SO CAN I GET TO THE POINT?

I WOULD LIKE YOU TO

SEE SOMETHING FIRST.

OKAY.

THIS PICTURE WAS TAKEN WHEN

I WAS EIGHT YEARS OLD.

AND EVERY COUPLE OF YEARS

SOMEONE IS NOSING AROUND

LOOKING FOR A NEW ANGLE

ON AN OLD STORY.

BUT THIS TIME:

THERE IS A STORY.

I'D REALLY LIKE AN EXCLUSIVE.

AND CONSIDERING:

YOUR BACKGROUND,

YOU'RE A WONDERFUL CHOICE.

THIS IS BIG NEWS FOR US.

YEAH, RIGHT.

WILL IT AIR BEFORE THE

TWO-HEADED ALIEN BABY,

OR AFTER "I TOOK A

SHOWER WITH SATAN"?

THAT WAS ACTUALLY ONE OF

OUR HIGHEST-RATED SHOWS,

AND I DOUBT THAT THIS

WOULD EVEN COME CLOSE.

WOULD IT HELP IF I

HAD SOME HORNS?

VERY FUNNY.

LOOK, THINK ABOUT IT.

YOU... A YOUNG BOY...

SAYING GOODBYE TO YOUR PARENTS

BEFORE THE CORONA

QUEEN DISAPPEARS

INTO THE BERMUDA TRIANGLE.

AND THEN, YEARS LATER,

THE SHIP RETURNS,

AND YOU GO ABOARD TO SAY

YOUR FINAL GOODBYE.

GO ABOARD?

WE'RE FLYING OUT TO THE

SHIP IN FOUR HOURS.

WILL YOU GO?

I DON'T KNOW.

LOOK-- LOOK, MR. ROBERTS,

LET ME BE STRAIGHT WITH YOU.

I NEED THIS STORY.

I THINK IT WOULD BE

GOOD FOR BOTH OF US.

HOW'S THAT?

I'VE DONE MY HOMEWORK. I KNOW ABOU YOUR WORK IN PARAPSYCHOLOGY,

AND I KNOW ABOUT YOUR INTERES IN THE BERMUDA TRIANGLE.

WE TALK THE SAME LANGUAGE.

I DON'T THINK SO.

I SEE THE PARANORMAL AS A

FIELD OF SCIENTIFIC STUDY.

YOU SEE IT AS A WAY TO

EXPLOIT PEOPLE'S FEARS.

I'VE SPENT THE LAST 15

YEARS FIGHTING AGAINS

THE SORT OF STORIES

THE MEDIA FABRICATES.

AND BESIDES, MY INTERES IN THE TRIANGLE IS--

IT'S PURELY PERSONAL.

IT'S NOT SANCTIONED
