Pilot Script

Pilot: Part One

ROCKWELL
Because you owe me for distracting me while Marianne and I were training.

DEX
Bloody hell mate! A warning would be appreciated next time!

ROCKWELL
This was your warning

Rockwell walks off and is replaced by Hayes.

HAYES
Richards, Woods and Dean said that you have their mission file?

MAXINE
Yes sir.

HAYES
Meet me in my office then in fifteen minutes.

MAXINE
Yes sir.

Hayes walks off quickly and Dex turns to Maxine.

DEX
I thought Woods and Dean were on break?

MAXINE
No. Hayes sent them to try and find Markovetz.

DEX
He's still missing?

MAXINE
Unfortunately yes.

DEX
Do we have any leads?

MAXINE
Classified.

DEX
Really?

MAXINE
Sorry kid, Captain's orders.

DEX
Ouch.

MAXINE
You two still up for lunch in the lab?

DEX
If Lee's not dead by then.

Maxine nods and runs off towards the other side of the agency.

CUT TO:
INT. DEX AND LEE'S LAB
Kayne is waiting by the door as Lee jumps down from the stairs, but trips and hits the ground at Kayne's feet. Lee gets up immediately and opens the lab door.

LEE
You didn't miss your flight again, did you?

Kayne narrows her eyes, which makes Lee flinch.

KAYNE
(sighs)
No. I came down here ten minutes early.

LEE
(very relieved)
Oh thank goodness!

KAYNE
Let's just get this over with. Nunavut won't save itself.

Lee nods and walks into the lab, followed slowly by Kayne.
Lee and Dex's lab isn't the cleanest, but it appears to be organized in a way. Lee has the right side of the room, and Dex has the left. Dex's side is the cleaner one, but he does have computers and tablets all over his long desk. Lee's side has spare parts and tools all over the long desk, but there is one clear spot that has a sign that says, "reserved for jumping over".
Lee jumps over the desk on that spot and ducks behind the desk. Kayne looks around, disgusted.

AKAYNE
How can you work in such a messy place?

LEE
(pops back up from behind the desk with a box)
It may be messy, but I know where everything is.

KAYNE
Whatever you say kid. What do you have for me?

Lee pushes some spare parts behind the desk, leaving room for the box, which she sets on the table and opens. Lee takes out three items and sets them on the table. She then takes the long device and holds it up.

LEE
So Nunavut is a snowy place, right?

KAYNE
(nods)
Duh. Aren't you supposed to be smart?

LEE
First, that was a solid burn that actually stung a little. Second, yes I am. So let's say you need to get somewhere fast, and the fastest way is through a snow filled area. If you take any vehicle that isn't made for snow and place this device on the front bumper, it will melt the snow and ice in front of you, making it easier to ride through.
