B13 EXT. ISLAND - CLIFFS - DAY B13

Julius strides along a windswept path, followed by

Werner. The ocean spread out below them is vast and

empty. This island is far from anywhere.

WERNER:

(fretting terribly)

You've been here since you were a

baby -- you know nothing of

America --

JULIUS:

I know it is the cradle of

democracy and the land of the

free; besides, I speak twelve

languages -- I'm sure I can get a

job.

(CONTINUED)

TWINS - Rev. 5/9/88 5. *

WERNER:

They're a simple people; rather

primitive, not like us.

JULIUS:

My brother will look after me.

13 INT. JULIUS'S HUT - DAY 13

It's a blend of modern technology and the tropical

environment -- floor-to-ceiling book-cases, computers, a

hammock shrouded in a mosquito net.

Julius is hurriedly packing a small leather suitcase,

watched by Werner.

Werner hands over a photograph: it's a picture of a

younger Werner, Traven, and the six fathers.

JULIUS:

It's your only copy --

WERNER:

-- My need for it is only

sentimental -- yours may be

practical --

Julius slips the photo into his suitcase.

JULIUS:

Thank you -- I'll miss you.

WERNER:

(holding back the

tears)

I'll miss you.
