(Int. room with liquids, night. Anne gasps awake and sits up with the help of Baal. Satan sits next to him, looking concerned.)

Baal: Are you alright, Anne?

Anne: (Out of breath.) Yes, I'm fine.

Baal: (To Satan.) What in the blue blazes was that?

Satan: I don't know, but it certainly wasn't normal, now calm yourself, and go find our newest resident, I believe her name was Charlotte, can you do that?

Baal: Yes my lord. (Starts to exit.)

Satan: Excellent, now Anne-

(Baal's knees buckle, and he makes a sharp, pained noise. Satan rushes over to support him.)

Satan: Alright, this does not have to be done immediately, I'll take you somewhere to rest, then speak with Anne, you can carry out my request when you feel up to it.

(Exit Baal and Satan. Anne lays back down awkwardly and stares at the ceiling as she waits for Satan's return. Cut to when he enters again.)

Satan: May I speak to you now?

Anne: Yes sire.

Satan: Come then.

(Exit Satan and Anne.)
