Red Eye Page #2

Synopsis: This is the story of a young resourceful heroine named Lisa Reisert who hates to fly, but the terror that awaits her on the night flight to Miami has nothing to do with a fear of flying! Upon boarding the plane, Lisa is trapped on a red-eye flight with a creepy villainous handsome and charming man by the name of Jackson Rippner, who's playing middle-man in the plot to assassinate a Homeland Security official. He's got her father pinned down by a would-be killer, using that advantage to coerce Lisa into phoning the luxury resort where she works and arranging to move the target into a pre-set position.

- She's exhausted, worked 18 hours,

and she suspects we all hate her

just as much as you do.

What do you say we give her a break?

Let her get back to a job

I'm guessing is a lot

more thankless than yours.

This airline sucks.

Next in line, please.

That's me.

Here.

Thank you very much.

And thank you.

You're welcome.

Yeah. Thank you.

Not at all.

That was just back-up.

- You got the ball rolling.

- Yeah.

- Reflex, I guess.

- Why is that?

I work in a hotel. I deal

with people like that all the time.

The Marriott? The Hilton?

- The Lux Atlantic It's in...

- Miami.

- Right. I know it well.

- Yeah.

- So you're on this...

- Very delayed flight to Miami. Yeah.

- You?

- Yeah. Sadly, yeah.

But you know what? That's

why God created the Tex-Mex.

The best nachos in the airport

and right across from our gate.

Good tip. Thanks.

Save you a seat.

Yeah, that was... I thought

since we're on the same flight...

I didn't mean to invade

your personal space or...

- No.

- I can take you over here.

- I just... I have a few calls to make.

- Sure. I understand. You go ahead.

- Have a good flight.

- OK. You too.

We will be updating you

with the departure time

of Flight 1019

with service to Miami...

- Hi.

- Hi. You must be Rebecca.

- Yes.

- Well, my name's Mary,

and I hear this is the first time

you're flying by yourself.

Well, you must be very brave.

- Are you gonna be OK?

- Yes, Mom.

- Are you sure?

- Yes, I'm sure.

- I'm just asking.

- I'm 11, not nine.

Come with me, you two.

There you go, sir.

Your nachos. Careful, hot plate.

Thank you, sir.

Oh, my God! I am so sorry.

- It's iced. Don't worry.

- OK.

- Let me find you napkins.

- No, no, no. It's fine.

- Are you sure?

- Yeah.

OK. Larry,

could you run back to Starbucks?

I need another mocha.

- Finish that one already?

- Someone's wearin' it.

Ladies and gentlemen,

your attention.

Flight number 17 leaving Dallas

National Airport from gate two

will be delayed for 20 minutes.

Paging a skycap with

electric cart to gate four.

Paging a skycap with

electric cart to gate four.

- Hi.

- Hi.

- Is this taken?

- No, it's all yours.

Thanks.

So did you get your calls made?

Yep. No more calls.

Good. What will you have?

- No, it's... I'm OK.

- If I can guess...

OK.

I'm feeling vodka.

Definitely sweetened.

Cosmo. Way too common.

Screwdriver.

No. No. No. Way too boring.

So that leaves me with the

simplicity of the grapefruit

or the complexity of the pineapple.

Grapefruit sea breeze.

- Could I have a bay breeze?

- You got it.

Thanks.

It's an impressive talent, though.

Very close.

- You know, breaks the ice.

- Yeah.

- So are you headed home?
