INT. INSIDE THE WAREHOUSE – DAY

The warehouse interior is dark. It is all murky shadows and nothing can be seen distinctly.

JOE

(over radio)

Clear as mud.

GEORGE

(over radio)

We put in a master switch over here by the door.

An ECOHING CHONK as George throws the master switch. Bright white lights, recently installed, illuminate the warehouse interior.

Amidst waste and rubble the GYNOPHAGE is suddenly visible. The Gynophage is a monster shaped like a squat amphora without handles, about ten feet in diameter and twelve feet tall. The mouth of the “amphora” is a feeding siphon.

Many long tentacles project out from the Gyonphage’s body. There end in “grabbers,” “eyes,” “mouths,” “claws,” and phallic-like structures.

As Harry’s group enters, the Gynophage’s feeding siphon stands up, and its tentacles begin to stir and wave around. There is a round of GASPS and EXCITED UTTERANCES from Joe, Rosalie, and Harry.

HARRY

(over radio)

I can see why you had trouble describing this in my office, George.

Harry steps forward to about the outer reach of the Gynophage’s tentacles.

An eye-tentacle moves forward slowly and stares at Harry though Harry’s suit’s faceplate. The tentacle rests dead still as the eye watches Harry.

HARRY

(over radio)

Amazing…absolutely amazing.

Rosalie steps forward, a bit hesitantly, putting her hand on Harry’s arm as if to pull him back a bit.

ROSALIE

(over radio)

Dr. Lal, are you sure…
