War/Peace - Part II. Clarissa Daisy Huntsman
to use these trees/
Coppers hear the chatter,
fly by; gotta make a seize/
Ban us from the rock homes that we go through/
Where we stash hash that's like the best 'shrooms/
Cop jocks wanna pull us up like poor roots,
but I wish they could let us sit/
They lot want this honey/
They'll take this 'comb/
Our yellow hearts in us
don't have a legal tone/
But we bees be poised/
H2O [honey flow]/
Let's get a melting pot/
"If you coming, come on"/
We try to keep shit sweeter/
Our buzz be a heater/
Come round tour Utah/
We can "roll some reefa"/
Wet honeybees/
Bee breath beaches/
Come taste the honey walls/
Well, I think you need a B(ee) cup/
Squeeze up
COP 1
What's going on here?
COP 2
What did you just say? Something about stashing hash?
CLARISSA LOOKS AT BRIAN.
CLARISSA
Oh my god Brian.
SHE SHAKES HER HEAD.
COP 2
Oh, this guy's high as a kite.
COP 1
I think we've stumbled upon a Hippie commune, Mark.
CLARISSA
Uh . . . we're filming a music video. We love the scenery here. Thought we'd film your chopper too if that's alright.
THE COPS WALK UP TO CLARISSA AND BRIAN. BY NOW THE PROPELLERS OF THE CHOPPER HAVE COME TO A STOP.
COP 1
We're going to need to see some grass.
COP 2
We'll need to look in the shed guys.
CLARISSA TWIRLS A FINGER THROUGH HER HAIR. SHE CALMLY APPROACHES THE COPS. HER VOICE IS SMOOTHER THAN THE DUNES.
CLARISSA
We've only got some cameras inside. Hey - do you think we could film you two?
COP 1
You can film us. But we need to take a look inside.
THE COPS SMILE. THEY PUSH PAST CLARISSA AND BRIAN AND THEN THE FIRST ONE CAREFULLY OPENS THE DOOR. CLARISSA LOOKS AT BRIAN.
CLARISSA
The monitors! Are they on?

INT. HONEYBEE HIVE - GROUND - DAY
(CLARISSA, BRIAN, COP 1, COP 2)
COP 1
Surveillance equipment!
THE TWO COPS WALK OVER TO THE COMPUTERS. THEY LOOK AT THE SCREENS. THEY BOTH LAUGH.
COP 2
It's a hive. I heard about these. Told you we'd find one.
COP 1
Wow.
HE LOOKS UP.
COP 1
Guys. Don't play games with us. We need to see some reefa already.
BRIAN
We swear we don't grow. I got some from a mate in Salt Lake.
AGAIN THE COPS LAUGH.
COP 2
Ok.
THE COP RAISES HIS HANDS.
COP 2
What we're asking here is to "try" some. We ain't here to seize no plants.
COP 1
Except enough to get us high.
COP 2
Look guys; we're awful glad we found this place. We're under a lot of stress right now. And - trust me - we're searching Utah for something a lot more dangerous than some friendly botanists. And you may be able to help us out.
CLARISSA'S MOUTH DROPS.
CLARISSA
Wait. Ok.
SHE LIFTS AN ARM. IT THINS AND BEGINS TO FORM INTO A WING.
COP 1
Wow!
CLARISSA
You guys don't care? Really? I mean, you haven't called for back up so it doesn't seem like you wanna seize anything.
ONE COP APPROACHES CLARISSA.
COP 1
Here's the deal.
HE SHOWS HER HIS BADGE.
COP 1
I'm police chief Tom. And this mission we're on is pretty damn important. Fact is; some sands in Utah has been rising over the past several years. We have data from satellites. Something's happening underground. Someone's testing nuclear weapons [1.] [2.] around here. And these are the people we're after. I'm relieved that you guys aren't the ones, but also pretty damn annoyed we haven't found them yet.
CLARISSA TAKES A DEEP BREATH.
CLARISSA
In Utah? Oh no.
COP 2
We all know what happened in Australia. No one should have nuclear weapons.
CLARISSA
Look, whatever help you guys need we'll give it to you.
CLARISSA TURNS AROUND.
SHE TAKES ANOTHER DEEP BREATH.
SHE CAN'T CRY. NOT NOW. NOT AGAIN. DEEP BREATHS, ONE TO TEN.
