Let us be lovers, well marry our fortunes together Ive got some real estate here in my bag So we bought a pack of cigarettes, and Mrs. Wagner pies And we walked off to look for America Cathy, I said, as we boarded a Greyhound in Pittsburg Michigan seems like a dream to me now It took me four days to hitchhike from Saginaw Laughing on the bus, playing games with the faces She said the man in the gaberdine suit was a spy I said be careful, his bowtie is really a camera Toss me a cigarette, I think theres one in my raincoat We smoked the last one an hour ago So I looked at the scenery, she read her magazine And the moon rose over an open field Cathy, Im lost, I said, though I knew she was sleeping Im empty and Im aching and I dont know why Counting the cars on the New Jersey turnpike Counting the cars on the New Jersey turnpike

FADE IN ON: EXT: SKY - DAY [A WHITE BIRD soaring. The sky is a glorious explosion of blue and mauve and lavender. The setting sun washes the clouds with a delicate pink tint. The bird swoops and spirals and we are right there with him. Then suddenly, below us, an extraordinary sight appears.] EXT: LABYRINTH - DAY [It is the labyrinth, an enormous maze of incredible mandala like intricacy. From our magnificent vantage point, we are barely able to make out its details: the twisting walls interrupted here and there by lush forest, the complex web of waterways, the forbidding castle at the core. It is vast and magical, frightening and compelling at the same time. We would love to linger, perhaps fly lower and get a better look at this wondrous place, but the bird flies on] EXT: GLADE - DAY [It is an idyllic setting, warm and inviting. The late afternoon sun washes everything with a pink glow. Between the water and a line of lush fruit trees is a flower-strewn glade. A FIGURE emerges from the trees and walks toward the water. It is a YOUNG WOMAN dressed in a flowing white dress that swirls around her in the breeze. The pink light burnishes her hair and causes a gold circlet she wears on her head to glow. She is breathtaking, a vision of innocence and grace. She stops to pick a flower and then turns suddenly as if she has heard something.] GIRL: Is it you? GIRL: Your Highness! [The GIRL curtsies deeply and then looks up through lowered lashes, the shy smile still dancing on her lips. And then we pull back to reveal a crown perched on a head of tight curls. We are looking through the crown at the girl as she rises slowly, then looks boldly at the PRINCE.] GIRL: Do not be swayed by my pleasure at the sight of you, my lord. For though my father, the Duke, has promised you my hand, I cannot consent to be yours until the evil that stalks our land from highest hill to deepest dale is ... [Suddenly the GIRL stops speaking, a look of stunned confusion on her face.] GIRL: ... from highest hill to deepest dale ... her brow furrows in concentration and then Damn! [She burrows one hand into the deep sleeve of her gown and pulls out a rolled-up soft-cover book. She rifles through the pages.] [The PRINCE is not a prince at all, but a SHEEPDOG wearing a tin foil crown. He thinks his work is over and its time to play and he lunges happily towards the GIRL who isnt a princess or even a duchess, but 15-year-old SARAH.] [SARAH is knocked over by the playful DOG. Beneath the gown which we can now see is homemade and not very grand at all, we see faded jeans and running shoes.] SARAH: Get off me, you monster!! [The DOG grabs the book out of her hand and runs away with it, hoping to be chased. SARAH doesnt follow, she just sits up and pulls the grass out of her tangled hair and sighs with frustration. The DOG comes back over to SARAH, its tail wagging hopefully.] SARAH: If you value your mangy life, Merlin, youll hand it over. THE BOOK [On the cover it says, MEANDERS QUEEN a play in three acts by Robin Zakar_. SARAH reaches for it and we hear a clock tower begin to chime.] SARAH leaps to her feet. SARAH: Oh no, Merlin! Were really late! Why does everything have to happen to me!!!? [MERLIN prances around her happily, his foil crown in his mouth. SARAH pulls it out of his mouth and throws it in a nearby trash basket. He rushes after it and peers into the basket, wanting to fetch.] SARAH: Its all your fault, you miserable mutt!! She hikes up her dress and runs into the trees. MERLIN whimpers and EXT: THE OTHER SIDE OF THE TREES - DAY [SARAH comes bursting through the trees and runs down a hill toward the street. WE PULL BACK and WE CAN SEE an enormous steel mill on the other side of the river. And now WE NOTICE that the light isnt pink any more but sort of dull and hazy, and the idyllic glade is barely a suburban park, and this is just an ordinary day in a very ordinary place.] EXT: AN OLD RAMBLING HOUSE - DUSK [SARAH runs up a path to an older, rambling house. She goes through the front door, MERLIN hot on her heels, and neither one of them sees the beautiful SNOW-WHITE BIRD that lands in a tree beside the path.] INT: INSIDE THE ROUSE - EVENING [SARAH bursts through the front door and makes a beeline for the stairs. She almost makes it. SARAHS MOTHER appears in the hallway.] MOTHER: Sarah, where have you been?!!! [SARAH abruptly stops and changes to an elegantly graceful ascension of the stairs.] SARAH in an affected voice: I cant talk to you now. Im in rehearsal. MOTHER: You were supposed to be home an hour ago to baby-sit for Freddie! Dont we at least deserve an explanation? [SARAH stops and leans over the railing. She speaks with a melodramatic solemnity.] SARAH: As Meanders Queen, Ive been ... meandering. Dither me not about explanations. [With that she turns and heads for her room. On the door is a sign that says: Admittance by Invitation Only. SARAHS FATHER comes into the hall.] FATHER: Whats that all about? MOTHER: Its a part in a play, raising her voice but thats no reason to... SARAH turns in her doorway. She calls down. SARAH: Chasten not your Queen, Peasant! INT: SARAHS ROOM - NIGHT FATHER : Sarah, thats no way to talk to your mother! SARAH mumbles to herself: Shes not my mother. [SARAH takes a deep breath and closes her eyes. She can hear footsteps and SOMEONE comes to the other side of the door.] With a practiced gesture SARAH removes her jeans while leaving her gown in place.] STEPMOTHER : Sarah, when I tell you to be home at five, I expect you to be home at five. [SARAH quickly shifts to her STEPMOTHERs attitude -- hands on hips, and silently mimes her words.] SARAH: Yes, Madame! INT: UPSTAIRS HALLWAY STEPMOTHER: And dont Yes Madame me! FATHER: Is she all right? STEPMOTHER frustrated: Of course shes all right! I left the Bernsteins number on the kitchen table ... Freddie might be coming down with a cold so call us if he seems even the least bit uncomfortable ... SARAH sighs: Yes, Mother. STEPMOTHER: Oh! I give up! FATHER: Well see you later, baby. And remember ... INT: SARAHS ROOM - NIGHT SARAH & FATHER : Dont open the door to strangers. [We hear him leave. SARAH waits a beat and then turns and opens her bedroom door.] SARAH: And dont call me baby! she slams the door shut; mimicking her parents Precious little Freddie might be coming down with a cold ... [She sighs and looks around. This is really her world, her retreat, and she knows and controls every inch of it. The shelves are filled with an orderly array of childhood dolls and toys. The books are lined up neatly in the bookcase and if we could see them up close we would see that they were placed in alphabetical order -- and according to the year they were acquired. She walks over to her dresser. She checks herself out in the mirror above the chest of drawers and adjusts the golden circlet which has been knocked askew by her run. She then stops for a moment and looks at the photographs on the dresser. One of her FATHER, her MOTHER and herself as a LITTLE GIRL. Another picture of her MOTHER in a newspaper clipping is taped to the mirror. The headline says, Linda Williams a Smash in New Play. A cover of a Playbill is also tacked on to the mirror. It says _Best of Both Worlds_ starring Linda Williams. SARAH then reverently opens a music box -- the kind with a twirling dancer inside -- and to the strains of an unbearably tinny version of Greensleeves she begins to rehearse.] SARAH: Do not be swayed by my pleasure at the sight of you, my Lord ... SARAH : Someone has been in my room! [Through the mirror WE SEE what she sees: an empty space on one of the shelves. She swirls around and rushes out the door.] INT: THE HALLWAY - NIGHT SARAH: Wheres Lancelot? SARAH: Wheres my bear?!! INT: NURSERY - NIGHT SARAH enters FREDDIEs room. She searches the nursery. SARAH: Nobody listens to a thing I say. SARAH: How many times have I told them to stay out of my room ... [She gets to the crib and looks down. FREDDIE is wide awake, gurgling at Lancelot, SARAHs tattered old teddy bear.] SARAH: And you, you can just give me back my bear! [She yanks it out of the crib and leaves. FREDDIE looks hurt and his face starts to cloud up.] INT: SARAH S ROOM - NIGHT [SARAH is curled up on her bed, cuddling her bear. MERLIN sits beside her. She looks at the DOG.] SARAH: Youre the only one who understands me, Merlin. [He licks her face. She gets up and holds the bear out in front of her. SARAH: Do not be swayed by my pleasure at the sight of you, my lord ... SARAH: Go to sleep, Freddie! SARAH: Why does everything have to happen to me? INT: NURSERY - NIGHT SARAH: I dont need this. SARAH: There, isnt that nice ... [But FREDDIE doesnt think so. He pushes the blanket off and howls even louder. SARAH sees one of his toys on the floor and picks it up and gives it to him. She speaks through gritted teeth.] SARAH: Want your nice toy? [But FREDDIE doesnt. He flings the toy across the room. SARAH bends over the crib and speaks softly.] SARAH: You know, Freddie, I heard that the only thing to do with a baby who wont stop crying is to get some goblins to come over and teach him a lesson ... SARAH: How would you like that, kid? A nasty evil goblin ... [FREDDIE is quiet for a moment, almost as if he is considering. Then he really howls. SARAH sighs and picks him up. She begins to pace back and forth, and starts to hum. FREDDIE goes back to a mere whimper.] SARAH: Oh, you like that, do you? [She begins to hum even louder and more melodically as she places the BABY back into the crib. She then begins one of the moat macabre lullabies you could ever imagine. She sings of how scary the dark is, how the shadows on the wall like to eat you when youre small and how a baby doesnt stand a chance when the Goblins start their dance. She throws herself into her performance; adding to it a wild dance that has her whirling around the room, leaping into the air, making strange shadows on the wall. Finally, the dance ends when too many crazed pirouettes result in her stumbling against FREDDIEs dresser. She staggers a bit and then the lights blink as a crack of thunder is heard, followed by a flash of lightning.] ANOTHER ANGLE [Little FREDDIE is wailing. He hasnt understood a thing that SARAH has sung but he can sense that something is wrong.] SARAH: Ah, cmon, Freddie. It was just a song. [They are interrupted by the sound of the doorbell. SARAH reacts with a gasp of surprise. FREDDIE, for some inexplicable reason, is suddenly quiet.] INT: FOYER - NIGHT [SARAH approaches the front door with some trepidation. She starts to open it, then realizes what she is doing. She fastens the chain and only then opens the door.] EXT: HOUSE - NIGHT SARAHS POV [Through the door opening SARAH can see a very elegantly dressed, quite good-looking MAN of an indeterminate age. He has a worldly air, or is it other-worldly? Before he can speak a flash of lightning illuminates his face. He is a mesmerizing sight and SARAH cant help but gawk.] MAN: Excuse me, is this the home of Sarah Williams ... Sarah Williams, the actress? SARAH: Thats me. MAN: Allow me to introduce myself ... Im Robin Zaker. SARAH: You wrote the play! SARAH: Just a second. INT: FOYER - NIGHT [SARAHs hand hesitates over the chain for just a moment, and then she unfastens it and opens the door. ZAKAR enters and extends his hand.] ZAKAR: It is an honour, Miss Williams. I understand you make a delightful Queen Meander. SARAH: Well, weve just started rehearsal, but how did you know? ZAKAR: I was passing through this part of the country and heard that it was going to be done here. This is the first amateur production of the play, which of course is delightful for me. SARAH: You know we were supposed to open tonight, but we got delayed. The firemen had to use the hall. ZAKAR: Yes, I know, thats why I wanted to stop by to see you. [They are interrupted by a particularly loud crash from upstairs. And then FREDDIE begins to howl.] SARAH: Thats my brother ... SARAH: Ill be right back! [ZAKAR watches her run up the stairs. He glances around and then walks right to the liquor cabinet and takes out a bottle.] INT: NURSERY - NIGHT [FREDDIE in standing in his crib crying his eyes out. SARAH rushes in and sees that the storm has blown open the basement window and it is crashing against the wall. She rushes to close it. FREDDIEs screams are piteous.] SARAH: Oh, Freddie ... [There is more thunder, and then lightning flashes across the darkened room.] ZAKAR : Perhaps I can soothe him ... [SARAH gasps and whirls around. ZAKAR is framed in the doorway. He has a drink in his hand. SARAH holds the BABY close.] SARAH: You shouldnt be up here! ZAKAR : I just wanted to help ... SARAH rushes by him, still clutching the BABY. INT: HALLWAY - NIGHT [SARAH comes out of the nursery and hurries down the stairs. ZAKAR follows. FREDDIE is still crying.] SARAH: Maybe youd better leave ... [She gets to the bottom of the stairs. FREDDIE whimpers. ZAKAR is making her very nervous.] SARAH: ... I, uh, dont think I care to talk to you about the play. ZAKAR: Neither do I. SARAH: What! ZAKAR: Im more concerned about the baby, of course. SARAH: Freddies just fine. [But he isnt. Hes still crying. ZAKAR reaches into his pocket and pulls out a coin. Be runs it over his fingers right in front of FREDDIEs face. The BABY stops crying.] ZAKAR: There, isnt that better? SARAH : Uh, sure ... but you really have to leave ... ZAKAR: Im not just a playwright, as you can see ... bring him in here and Ill do some other tricks for him ... SARAH: No! Youve got to ... [But he is already in the living room. She follows, still holding the BABY.] INT: LIVING ROOM - NIGHT [ZAKAR is sitting on the sofa, looking very comfortable. SARAH stands in the doorway, not sure what to do. Reluctantly, she goes and sits down across from him.] ZAKAR: Now watch this, Freddie ... [He reaches into his breast pocket and tugs on the handkerchief there. It comes out followed by many others, all different colours. SARAH rolls her eyes. This is not that exciting a trick. FREDDIE isnt impressed, either. In fact he starts to cry again.] ZAKAR: So youre going to be like that, are you, Freddie? Well, you know what that means? ZAKAR: Its time to call the goblins! SARAH: What?!! [SARAH is surprised to hear this, to say the least. It echoes her silly threat to FREDDIE earlier.] ZAKAR: Yes. Thats what we do with bad babies ... we send for the goblins!! [And with that he reaches into yet another pocket and pulls out a poorly made, very silly-looking goblin hand puppet. SARAH laughs with relief. ZAKAR, his hand in the puppet, talks in a high-pitched, unconvincing goblin voice.] ZAKAR: You like goblins, dontcha, Freddie? but I bet your sister doesnt ... [SARAH rolls her eyes at this, and then gasps. Because for one very strange moment, the puppet keeps bouncing, but both of ZAKARs hands are visible! And then the puppet seems to move away from the table, and disappear! FREDDIE claps his hands with delight. SARAH jumps out of her chair.] SARAH: Where is it?!!! ZAKAR: Its in there. SARAH: Impossible! ZAKAR: See for yourself. [SARAH hesitates for a moment, and then places FREDDIE carefully on the rug. She then marches over to the cabinet and throws open the door.] ANOTHER ANGLE ANOTHER ANGLE [SARAH gasps and involuntarily slams the door. She whirls around to face ZAKAR.] SARAH: How did you do that?!! ZAKAR: Magic. SARAH: Oh sure ... [She nods, skeptically. She cant see -- but WE CAN DEFINITELY SEE -- the cabinet door slowly open behind her, and out of it comes a tiny, fierce-looking GOBLIN! This is not a puppet, but a living creature that moves quickly out of sight with an exaggerated tiptoe. SARAH is busy with another problem. She doesnt see FREDDIE!] SARAH: Wheres Freddie?!! [ZAKAR shrugs. In a panic, SARAH begins to look around this room. She calls for FREDDIE and, as she passes in front of the living room doorway, WE CAN SEE something scurry across the hallway. SARAH stops and listens.] SARAH: Freddie? [But it wasnt a BABY she heard. Behind her there is more scurrying as CREATURES begin to appear from various parts of the room. We hear faint snickering. She turns to ZAKAR, terrified.] SARAH: Where is he?!! ZAKAR points to the chair SARAH was sitting in. She is behind the chair and cant see anything. But when she comes around in front of it she sees FREDDIE comfortably ensconced in the cushions. And hes playing with the goblin puppet! SARAH reaches over and grabs the puppet out of his hands. She flings it across the room and scoops up the BABY.] SARAH: Who are you?!!! ZAKAR throws back his head and laughs, then suddenly leaps off the sofa and lands very close to her.] ZAKAR: Ive been known by many names ... but the one I prefer is Jareth, King of the Goblins!!! SARAH: I dont believe this! [Amidst thunder and lightning JARETH flings his arms up into the air, and he is suddenly dressed in strange, medieval garb, a cloak swirling around him. And whats worse, much, much worse, is that suddenly GOBLINS are everywhere! Popping out of drawers, from under chairs, swinging off the chandeliers. SARAH turns and runs out of the room.] INT: FOYER - NIGHT [Its worse in here! The GOBLINS are pouring down the stairs, SOME slide down the bannister! SARAH tries running into another room, but is soon back, followed by a DOZEN MORE! She barely makes it to the front door and struggles to open it with the BABY in her arms. The GOBLINS pull her back and laugh wildly. They fling her right into JARETHs arms. He scoops FREDDIE up and whirls away from her. SARAH tries to grab the BABY back but the GOBLINS get between them.] SARAH : Give him back, you monster! Give him back! [JARETH only laughs and starts to swirl gracefully. FREDDIE laughs with delight and SARAH struggles to reach him. With a superhuman effort she pushes through the MASS OF CREATURES and grabs onto JARETHs fluttering cloak. Its like being caught up in a whirlwind of incredible force.] SARAH : I ... wont ... let ... you ... take ... him! [But its too late. SARAHs feet leave the ground and she is pulled with them and the whole MASS OF GOBLINS. JARETH and FREDDIE swirl up through where the ceiling would have been, up into the blackness. Theres a QUICK MONTAGE OF SHOTS: JARETHs laughing face; SARAH, desperate as her fingers are losing their grip; FREDDIE, whos having a great time; GOBLINS, ALL gleeful; then -- JARETHs garment pulls out of SARAHs grip. She falls OUT OF FRAME, a silent scream on her face.] EXT: LABYRINTH - DAY A WIDE PEACEFUL SHOT [The sky is pink, and the WHITE BIRD swoops by us as WE TILT DOWN TO SEE the exterior wall of the labyrinth. It is a high masonry wall that extends off in either direction. Along the wall are various ornamental bushes and there is a small figure of a dwarf, his back to us, peeing into a tiny pond. It looks for all the world like one of those ornamental garden sculptures. But it isnt. This is HOGGLE. In a CLOSER SHOT, which is quite discreet, HOGGLE finishes peeing, and goes over to a particularly lush shrub. A few butterfly-like creatures, flower fairies, flit around the bushes.] HOGGLE: An hows me pride an joy! [He leans forward to sniff one of the magnificent blossoms, sighing with pleasure as he does. But before he can indulge he is stopped by the whistling sound of a falling object. SARAH falls from the sky and lands right on his prize shrub! Incensed, he screams with fury.] HOGGLE: What is this? Look what you done! You murderer! SARAH: What are you saying, you horrible little man?! HOGGLE: I aint horrible, Im Hoggle. And just look! Youve destroyed me prize blossoms! HOGGLE: Ill get ya for it, you big oaf! [And he picks up a spray can and goes after SARAH. But shes had enough. After the nightmarish kidnapping of FREDDIE and a drop from the deepest space, this guy is childs play. She reaches out and pulls the can from HOGGLEs hands. She then grabs him by the shirt-front and practically lifts him off the ground.] SARAH: Oh no you dont! If anyones getting anything around here, its me ... now where my brother?!! HOGGLE: I aint sayin nothin til ye let me go! . SARAH: Im sorry. But this just hasnt been my day. HOGGLE looks at his crushed shrub again. HOGGLE: Ye aint the only one. SARAH: And I dont understand any of this! HOGGLE: Now where have I heard that before. SARAH: What do you mean? HOGGLE: I mean, everyone who comes here thinkin they can make it through the labyrinth says sumthin like (mimicking Sarah in a whiny, high pitch) ... I dont understand this, whatever am I doing here, how will I ever get home ... SARAH: What makes you think Im here to get through a labyrinth? HOGGLE: Cant think of any reason why youd be standin here in front o this gate if you werent. [SARAH doesnt understand what he is talking about but when she looks up she cant believe her eyes.] ANOTHER ANGLE [A huge gate where just a moment ago there nothing but smooth, endless wall. SARAH gulps in disbelief. Then the huge wooden doors fly open and a terrified CREATURE runs out, full speed, screaming for his life. Right behind him come TWO MENACING GOBLINS riding on strange BEASTS. They are armed and dangerous looking. They quickly catch up with the CREATURE and drag him, screaming piteously, back through the gate. Before the gates close SARAH can see MORE GOBLINS, what seems like hundreds of them. SOME are mounted, MOST of them are armed. And beyond them a walled passageway seems to go on forever. Then the wooden doors slam shut.] SARAH: Oh, no! Not more goblins! HOGGLE: Thats Jareths goblin army, and that other poor fool musta been caught meanderin where he had no business. SARAH: What will they do to him? HOGGLE: I dont like to think about things like that. SARAH: I wonder if things can get any worse? HOGGLE: Hes taken sumthin o yours, aint he? HOGGLE: Jareth, our high an mighty king ... HOGGLE: Bet hes gone and taken sumthin you love. SARAH : Close. Hes got my baby brother. HOGGLE: Baby snatchin! Thats low. SARAH: So Ive just got to do something! HOGGLE: Like what? SARAH: Get Freddie back, of course! HOGGLE: Then yad have ta make it through the labyrinth, cause Jareths castle is at its very center. SARAH: Is it difficult? HOGGLE: Is me prize shrub crushed into oblivion? SARAH: Look, Im sorry about your bush! But its not like I asked to have some weirdo come and take my baby brother and then drop me out of the sky! HOGGLE: Well, I didnt ask for some overgrown flower fairy to drop on me prized possession, neither! SARAH: Oh, this is ridiculous! SARAH : ... standing here wasting time talking to some weird guy who should be living under a bridge ... [She is almost at the gate when she freezes with fear. Through the gate she can hear the cheers and jeers of the GOBLINS, and what might be the wailing of their poor CAPTIVE. Theres no way she wants to risk facing that horrific CREW. HOGGLE has come up behind her and as she backs away from the gate she bumps into him. She shrieks and whirls around.] HOGGLE: That aint the only way in, ya know! SARAH: Its not?! HOGGLE: Course it aint. Theres many a route in ... just only one way out. SARAH: Well show me one! Ive got to find my brother! [HOGGLE sighs impatiently. Be fingers a belt that he wears, rattling it in an obvious manner. It in hung with every kind of watch and bracelet and ring you can imagine.] HOGGLE: Information like that has a price ... SARAH: I could give you this ... HOGGLE: I had sumthin o this caliber in mind ... [He takes her hand and WE SEE that she is wearing a beautiful ruby ring. SARAH shakes her head vehemently.] SARAH: No. My mother gave me that. HOGGLE: She could give ya another ... SARAH: No, she couldnt. She lives real far away ... SARAH: This is all you get. HOGGLE: Bah! Its paste! [Something catches SARAHs eye. It is one of the tiny FLOWER FAIRIES. She leans over for a better look.] SARAH: No its not, its plastic. [HOGGLEs eyes light up at that and he grunts with satisfaction as he strings the circlet onto his belt. SARAH reaches out her hand to the FAIRY.] SARAH: What a beautiful little thing ... HOGGLE: Let me at it! SARAH: You murderer! How can you kill such beautiful creatures?!! [Just then the FAIRY gives SARAH a vicious bite. She shakes it off her hand and cries out in pain.] SARAH: It bit me! [HOGGLE quickly sprays the offending FAIRY and it falls to the earth, screaming all the way.] HOGGLE: Of course it bit ya! Theres nuthin more vicious than a flower fairy. Any fool knows that! HOGGLE : But you dont know nuthin, do ya? HOGGLE: I got a feelin Im gonna regret this. he stalks off Come with me an Ill show ya a way in. [SARAH hurries after him. As they walk along the endless wall HOGGLE looks at the circlet and polishes it on his sleeve.] HOGGLE : Plastic! EXT: LABYRINTH - DAY [Another part of the wall. HOGGLE pushes a bush aside and shows SARAH a tiny door. She looks at it dubiously.] HOGGLE: Thisll take ya into the maze, thats the first part of the labyrinth ... SARAH: The first part! What comes after that? HOGGLE: Then theres the Garden Maze, then the Forbidden Forest ... SARAH: That sounds inviting ... [He is through the door. He is still talking but SARAH cant hear him. She quickly tries to follow.] SARAH: Wait! Wait! I cant hear you ... INT: LABYRINTH - DAY HOGGLE: ... then comes the castle ... HOGGLE: ... thats surely where Jareths keepin the babe ... [He looks down at SARAH, she is through the door to her waist and straining to get the rest of herself through. HOGGLE sighs and grabs her hand. With a groan he tugs on her and pulls her through the doorway. She lands flat on her face.] HOGGLE: Ya dont seem ta be able ta do nuthin without my help, do ya? [He chuckles and SARAH gives him a look that could kill as she gets up and dusts herself off. She looks around and the environment seems rather benign. The brick walls are open to the sky, here and there a flower peeks through a crack.] SARAH: Oh, I think I can handle it. In fact, this place doesnt seem so bad at all. INT: CORRIDOR 1 - DAY [SARAH turns a corner and comes face to face with a FACE. It is huge and grotesque and protrudes out of the wall.] FACE: Go back! Go back before its too late! [SARAH screams and backs away from it, moving further down the corridor. She backs into something and whirls around. It is ANOTHER FACE.] FACE 2: Turn back while you still can!! SARAH: Hoggle! INT: LABYRINTH - DAY [HOGGLE is still standing by the door, an amused smile on his face. SARAH comes rushing toward him.] SARAH: Oh, Im so glad youre still here! They were horrible ... HOGGLE: You dont mean the False Alarms, do ya? [He shakes his head and goes off in the direction that SARAH just came from.] HOGGLE: If ya gonna let a little thing like them scare ya, Missy, ya havent a hope o makin it to the castle. SARAH: False Alarms? INT: CORRIDOR 1 - DAY [The corridor of faces. HOGGLE enters and the FACES start in on their routine. SARAH comes up behind him, shuddering at the ghastly sight.] FACE 1: This is the path of no return! FACE 2: Beware! Beware! HOGGLE: Just ignore em. SARAH: Are you sure? FACE 3: Abandon all hope ... HOGGLE: Oh, shut up, will ya? FACE 3: But I was just getting to the best part! HOGGLE: All right. But dont expect us to pay any attention. FACE 3 : Youre going to love this ... Abandon all hope ye who enter here, for this is the road to destruction!!! HOGGLE : Very nice ... FACE 3: Come back any time ... I mean, youre doomed, doomed! INT: CORRIDOR 2 - DAY HOGGLE: Ya see, things arent always what they appear to be around here, Missy ... SARAH : Whatever. All Im interested in is getting my brother back from that creep. HOGGLE: I admire yer determination, but it takes moren that to beat Jareth. SARAH: Well, maybe Im beginning to get the hang of this labyrinth business. SARAH: See, now Ill know which way we came in case I get lost. HOGGLE : Missy, goin back the way ya came is par fer the course around here, what ya want to do is go forward. SARAH: Look, Hoggle! Ive got to find Freddie and I dont need you to discourage me! HOGGLE: And I dont need to be wastin me time goin around in circles with you! SARAH: Thats fine with me! I know youre only after my ring, anyway! [She turns a corner and HOGGLE looks after her, hurt and pity crossing his face. He takes a few steps in her direction and an officious little creature, a BRICKKEEPER, emerges from the brickwork of the floor, takes out the cobblestone that SARAH marked, and replaces it with the marked side hidden. It looks up at HOGGLE.] BRICKKEEPER: Some people got no respect for property! [HOGGLE sticks his tongue out at the CREATURE just as it goes back into its hole.] EXT: AERIAL SHOT - DAY [The WHITE BIRD flies over the maze and WE SEE SARAH marching along. She thinks shes going forward but shes heading right for HOGGLE.] INT: CORRIDOR 2 - DAY SARAH: But ... SARAH: ... but you were just behind me! Im sure of it! SARAH: My mark! It was right here! HOGGLE: I told ya, Missy. Things arent what they appear to be around here ... JARETH : Except when they are. ANOTHER ANGLE [JARETH, in all his glory. SARAH and HOGGLE whirl around and BOTH gasp with surprise and fear.] JARETH: We meet again ... Sarah. SARAH: Wheres Freddie?!! What have you done with him!? JARETH: Nothing ... yet. [He walks toward them and they automatically step backwards. He looks down at HOGGLE.] JARETH: And what have we here ... Hoghead, isnt it? HOGGLE: Me names Hoggle. JARETH: Ah, yes. Now I remember. Youre the greedy little coward who lives outside the gate. Shouldnt you be back there minding your own business ... Hedgehog? [He chucks HOGGLE under the chin, and is quite rough about it. HOGGLE fumes silently. SARAH doesnt like this.] SARAH: Why, why dont you pick on someone your own size? JARETH: Whom did you have in mind? SARAH: I dont have time for any games. I want Freddie, and I want him now! JARETH: Ah, Freddie. An adorable little imp. Im really growing rather fond of him. SARAH: Where is he?!! JARETH: Hes in my castle, and seems to be enjoying himself immensely. [He ambles toward them and they cant help themselves, they BOTH step backwards.] JARETH: In fact, he likes being with goblins so much, Im considering turning him into one. SARAH: You cant do that! JARETH : Oh yes I can. SARAH: Can he? HOGGLE nods glumly. JARETH: But lets make it interesting. I wont do it for ... thirteen hours. If you make it to the castle before then you might be able to save him. If not, well, I think little Freddie will mike an adorable goblin prince, dont you? [He laughs and holds up both hands and WE SEE that they are empty. He then closes them and when he opens them again there is a gold watch in one hand. He throws it to SARAH, but HOGGLE intercepts it and eyes it greedily. Annoyed, SARAH snatches it out of his hand. She looks at it and sees that it has 13 hours marked on it. When she looks up again, JARETH is gone.] WORM : Well, good riddance to bad rubbish! [SARAH and HOGGLE BOTH jump and then look at where the voice is coming from. It is a little WORM, poking its head out of a hole in the brickwork.] WORM: Thats what the missus always says, she does. Why the last time she found that one around here she sent him packing. SARAH: Jareth?! WORM: She dont take to his kind of nonsense, thats for sure. Now, how about a nice cup of tea? The missus has a kettle on. [SARAH looks down at HOGGLE, who shrugs. She then looks up at the WORM and gives him a beaming smile.] INT: CORRIDOR 2 - DAY SARAH: Do you think Jareth will give Freddie back if I make it on time? HOGGLE: Its hard to say, Missy. But if I were you, Id worry bout first things first. SARAH: What do you mean? HOGGLE: I means ya got ta find the castle before ya can go savin the babe and I mean ta see that ya do! SARAH is thrilled and leans over and gives him a kiss on the cheek. SARAH: Oh, Hoggle! Thank you, thank you so much! HOGGLE: Seems to me I could be gettin that ring from ya after all if I plays me cards right. SARAH: I know you dont mean that. Youre helping me because youre really nice. HOGGLE: I aint nice! I just likes the way ya stood up ta him is all. Too bad moreve us havent had the guts to do the same. WORM: How about a biscuit? The missus just took a fresh batch out of the oven. SARAH: Thanks, but we really dont have any time. Weve got to get to the castle. HOGGLE: Ya wouldnt happen to know a shortcut, would ya? WORM: Well, you might try taking that first left. SARAH and HOGGLE look down the corridor. SARAH: But there isnt any left turn. [Just then a strange FIGURE seems to come through the left wall and walks toward them. He is dressed in long flowing robes and wears a hat shaped like a bird.] WORM: See, theres a left turn right there, where that Wise One just came in. SARAH: A Wise One! Maybe he knows the best way to the castle! HOGGLE: I wouldnt bet on it. SARAH: Excuse me, Sir. Could you tell us the best way to get to the castle? WISE ONE: The best way to the castle, hmmm. Im glad you asked that question. HAT: Now youve done it, gone and asked him a question. Well be here all day! WISE ONE: A castle, or fortress, or as it is sometimes known, a stronghold or citadel -- or, that which has a turret and barbican, but usually not a portcullis ... HAT: What did I tell you? Theres no stopping him now. WISE ONE: ... often there is a rampart or bulwark, and then a parapet -- perchance an actual vallum or counterscarp ... HAT: Shut up down there! WISE ONE: ... and for entrenchment; a moat, drawbridge and sally-port ... SARAH: This was not one of my better ideas. HAT: Well, I told you that, didnt I? But nobody ever listens to me! HAT: Enough! Nobody cares!! WISE ONE: Did one of you say something? SARAH: Oh, no. We never talk to strangers. WISE ONE: Thats very wise. An idea worth savoring. HOGGLE: Yeah, but keep it under your hat! HOGGLE thinks this is hilarious. The HAT doesnt. HAT: Ve-ry funny! WISE ONE: The stranger, hmm. Im glad you brought that up. The stranger; one not indigenous, also known as the alien, or one from beyond the sea ... HAT : I quit! I cant take it anymore! [And then they are gone, passing through the righthand wall as if it wasnt there. SARAH watches after them, stunned.] SARAH: How did he do that?!! HOGGLE: And how can we make sure he doesnt come back? WORM: Just go over to that bit of wall there and walk right through it. The important thing is to forget what you think you know. It doesnt apply around here. [SARAH and HOGGLE walk down to the part of the wall where the WISE ONE entered. Once there, they can see that a section of the wall is actually a passageway-width behind the rest of the wall. SARAH yells back to the WORM.] SARAH: Thank you! And tell the missus were sorry we missed her biscuits! INT: CORRIDOR 3 - DAY [SARAH and HOGGLE appear through the wall and SARAH laughs with delight. HOGGLE wasnt as pleased with the experience and feels the wall as if testing to see if it really happened. SARAH sees that they are in a corridor where the walls are crumbling and she climbs up to the top of one and looks over.] ANOTHER ANGLE SARAHS POV - THE TURRETS OF THE CASTLE SARAH : I can see the castle! It doesnt look far at all! [HOGGLE is still feeling around the wall, trying to figure out how they got there. SARAH jumps down and starts to run down the corridor.] SARAH: Come on, Hoggle. Lets go! 30 INT: CASTLE - DAY [JARETHs great hall. He stands by a window and looks out over the labyrinth -- from this vantage point he can see clear across it: the hovels that surround the castle walls, the arid plain that leads to the dense forest, encircling that, the complex maze. He seems lost in thought. The WHITE BIRD enters the window and lands on his shoulder. Behind him FREDDIE is having a grand time. His slippery crawl is too much for the GOBLINS that scurry about, trying to mind him. Meanwhile, a particularly stupid looking GOBLIN begins to approach JARETH. He saunters across the room and is stopped short by a FEMALE GOBLIN. She grabs hold of his shirt and hisses a warning.] FEMALE GOBLIN: Remember! Its bow and scrape ... bow and scrape ... [The STUPID GOBLIN nods and she lets him go. He then continues his approach to JARETH, only this time he does a little bow and then scrapes his foot across the floor, then repeats the action.] STUPID GOBLIN : Bow n scrape ... bow n scrape ... JARETH: Well, what is it? [The GOBLIN cant answer and do his bow-and-scrape at the same time so continues his painfully slow approach.] STUPID GOBLIN: ... bow n scrape ... bow n scrape ... [Annoyed, JARETH walks over to the GOBLIN and lifts him up by his shirt front. The GOBLIN is still bowing.] JARETH: I said, what is it?!!! STUPID GOBLIN: Th ... the girl and Hoggle, sire. Th ... theyre halfway th .... through th ... the maze. [JARETH drops the GOBLIN hard on the floor. FREDDIE sees this and laughs with delight. JARETH walks over and scoops the BABY up in his arms. He then carries him over to the window. He calls over to an ARMED GOBLIN by the door.] JARETH: I think its time they had some company. ARMED GOBLIN: Yes, Sir! [He then salutes, causing his visor to close on his face, then stumbles around looking for the door. JARETH shakes his head.] JARETH: Youll make a much better goblin than that, wont you, Freddie! [FREDDIEs response is to clap his sticky babys hand on to JARETHs face. JARETH, pretending he doesnt mind, carefully removes it. He then looks down to the courtyard below.] EXT: CASTLE - DAY JARETHS POV ARMED GOBLINS are pouring out of the castle. EXT: CORRIDOR 4 - DAY [SARAH and HOGGLE are striding down a corridor. They are about to come to a corner.] SARAH: Are you sure Jareth can turn Freddie into a goblin? I mean, thats really weird ... SARAH: What is it? HOGGLE gestures for her to be quiet and then we can hear what he hears -- marching. They look back the way they came. ANOTHER ANGLE [SARAHS AND HOGGLES POV - A BATTALION OF ARMED GOBLINS, marching right towards them!] ANOTHER ANGLE [They look at each other, then turn and run. HOGGLE tries to get through the wall the way the WORM showed them.] HOGGLE : Just forget what you think you know and ... [He smacks headlong into the wall. He stops to rub his nose and SARAH flies by him.] SARAH: Come on! INT: CASTLE - DAY [FREDDIE is now sitting on the lap of a GOBLIN, happily bopping it on the nose. JARETH snaps his fingers and a GROUP of sleepy MUSICIANS in the corner stumble over themselves to pick up their instruments. They begin to play and JARETH looks out the window and begins a song. He sings about the labyrinth; what it is -- his domain, and what it is to OTHERS -- a test, a proving-ground, not for the faint of heart.] INT: MAZE MONTAGE - DAY [While JARETH sings, SARAH and HOGGLE try to escape from the GOBLINS. They get a lead on them for a while and come to another corridor with crumbling walls. They scamper up to get a look at their position and see dust rising from several parts of the maze. The GOBLINS are everywhere.] [In another corridor, they are stopped in their tracks by DOZENS OF LITTLE FUZZY CREATURES who scurry towards them out of the way of the oncoming GOBLINS. They turn and run back the way they came and as they do WALL CREATURES chatter nervously and then disappear into the cracks between the bricks.] [In a corridor with very short walls they are able to see the tips of spears on either side of them, going in the opposite direction.] [They enter a corridor with several arches curving over it, forming small, intermittent bridges. Thinking they are safe, they stop for a breath, and soon realize that a BATTALION is right behind them. They scurry up the walls, and as the song comes to an end, they each lie across an arch hopefully out of sight of the GOBLINS below.] INT: ARCHED CORRIDOR - DAY [SARAH and HOGGLE huddle above the corridor on their arches as TWO GOBLINS bring up the rear.] GOBLIN 1: I can kill better than you can. GOBLIN 2: But Im better at maiming. Everybody says so. [And they are gone. Shaken, SARAH and HOGGLE slide down from their hiding places.] SARAH: Do you think theyre gone? HOGGLE: Sure they are. Goblins aint known fer their intelligence, ya know. They has as much trouble findin their way through the maze as you do. SARAH: Im not sure, but I think you just called me stupid ... [Suddenly HOGGLE yells and disappears. He has accidentally leaned on another secret wall opening. SARAH quickly follows.] INT: CORRIDOR 5 - DAY [HOGGLE and SARAH are now in the long circular corridor that divides the maze from the beginning of the second ring of the labyrinth -- the Garden Maze.] HOGGLE : I think I know where we are! SARAH: Thatll be a nice change. HOGGLE: This place is the end o the maze! That means were near the entrance ta the second ring o the labyrinth. SARAH: The second ring? Whats that? HOGGLE starts down the corridor. HOGGLE : The Garden Maze! SARAH : Sounds like a great place ... whats it like? HOGGLE: Dont know, I aint never made it this far before. [He is skipping happily down the corridor when SARAH hears something. It is a strange clanking sound.] SARAH : Hoggle! Whats that sound?!! HOGGLE: Now dont go gettin all girly on me, Missy, now that wes finally safe ... SARAH: So you think were safe, do you? HOGGLE : Didnt I just say so?!! SARAH: Then tell me what you think of that. [SARAH points behind them where the clanking noise is coming from. It is now much louder. HOGGLE comes over to her and takes a better look. He screams.] ANOTHER ANGLE [THEIR POV - A SLASHING MACHINE is coming right towards them. (A slashing wall is made up of rows of furiously spinning knives, and chopping cleavers, and has brushes along the bottom to clean up whatever it encounters in its path.) And there is no way around it because it completely fills the corridor.] ANOTHER ANGLE [HOGGLE desperately tries to walk through the wall the way they came in, but it is to no avail. He just keeps smashing his face. SARAH starts to run for it.] SARAH: Come on! [HOGGLE follows, every so often trying, and failing, to get through the wall.] ANOTHER ANGLE [SARAH, who is far ahead of HOGGLE, comes to a door! And hanging on a hook next to it is a bunch of keys. She looks back at HOGGLE.] SARAH: Hoggle, hurry! ANOTHER ANGLE [SARAHS POV - HOGGLE running toward her, and making slow but steady progress toward them BOTH -- the slashing machine.] ANOTHER ANGLE [SARAH fumbles with the keys, furiously trying key after key in the door but to no avail. She is terrified.] SARAH: None of the keys work! [Desperate, she starts banging on the door. HOGGLE is just a few yards away from her.] HOGGLE: Why dont you just try it? [He then tries once more to walk through the wall. SARAH tries the knob and sure enough, it opens. She is delighted. What she doesnt see is HOGGLE suddenly disappearing through the floor.] SARAH: Its open! Hog ... [She turns around and he is gone! And the slashing machine is just a few yards away! She screams and, in her terror, falls backwards through the door. It slams shut just as the slashing machine reaches it WE CAN SEE that FOUR GOBLINS in sanitation workers uniforms have been pushing the machine all along. They grunt and strain, cranking the wheels that turn the knives and pushing all at the same time.] INT: PICTURE GALLERY - DAY [SARAH emerges into a large room. The walls are covered with large paintings in ornate gilt frames. She is a bit stunned by the clone call with the slashing machine as she approaches the first painting.] SARAH : What in the world ... [She stops short in front of the first painting and cannot believe her eyes. It is a painting of the watch with 13 hours on it. The hour hand is on the 9. SARAH fumbles into her pocket and finds the watch that Jareth gave her. It also has the hour hand on the 9.] SARAH: Only 9 hours left! [The next picture is of a BABY surrounded by gruesome GOBLINS. On closer inspection, the BABY is obviously FREDDIE. She chokes back a sob and runs over to the next one, it is a picture of a rotunda with staircases going off in all different directions on different planes of gravity. It is an Escher room, and a closer look shows a GOBLIN happily standing on the ceiling. She shakes her head and goes by the next painting and gasps involuntarily. It is a compelling portrait of JARETH, and she moves even closer. Then she shakes herself out of it.] ANOTHER ANGLE [THE PORTRAITS POV - SARAH wills herself away and moves on, and we hear the sound of JARETHs breathing.] ANOTHER ANGLE [SARAH is nervous and eagerly looks for a way out. She rushes by another painting, giving it merely a glance. But something makes her go back for a better look. It is of a lovely, manicured hedge maze. In the distance WE CAN SEE the turrets of JARETHs castle. And in the sky nearby flies a beautiful WHITE BIRD. And then SARAH is amazed by what she sees. A closer look at the painting reveals that the WHITE BIRD is flying! It moves over the hedges and WE SEE a FIGURE waving.] SARAH: Hoggle! [SARAH, disturbed, backs away from the painting. And then, because it really is as wonderful as it is scary, she goes back for another look and over her shoulder WE CAN SEE HOGGLE waving and we hear his tiny voice.] HOGGLE: Missy! Over here! This is the way to the castle! [And SARAH strains to hear, and leans toward the painting, stretching her hand out and touching the painting, which makes it turn into a shimmering wall that her hand goes right through. And then she disappears right through the painting.] ANOTHER ANGLE EXT: HEDGE MAZE - DAY SARAH: What happened to you? I was afraid Id never see you again! HOGGLE: Ya know that trick with the wall? Damn, if it dont work with the floor, as well! INT : HEDGE MAZE - DAY [SARAH and HOGGLE have been walking through the maze a long time. They are tired and bedraggled. SARAH pulls the watch out of her pocket and sighs.] SARAH: An hours gone by and I dont think were more than four feet from where we started. HOGGLE: Thats cause ya wont do what I tells ya. Its clear as day we should be goin this way ... [He turns a corner and walks smack into a hedge dead end. He howls in pain and SARAH sighs and follows him.] ANOTHER ANGLE SARAH: Got any more suggestions? [Before HOGGLE can answer they are interrupted by a terrible gut-wrenching scream. It is positively unearthly. SARAH whirls around.] SARAH: It sounds like it came from over there! HOGGLE: Then lets go this way. SARAH: Hoggle! It sounds like someones being hurt! HOGGLE: Exactly why we should be headin in the othermost direction! [SARAH shakes her head in disgust and runs off as the screams become more unbearable.] ANOTHER ANGLE [SARAH, running through the hedge maze. Driven by the sound of the screams, she has an unconscious ability to find her way through. HOGGLE, trying to keep up with her, keeps running into dead ends.] ANOTHER ANGLE [SARAH emerging from the maze. She is stopped in her tracks by what she sees and quickly covers her mouth to prevent herself from screaming. HOGGLE emerges a moment later, barely pauses before he heads right back into the maze.] EXT: CLEARING - DAY that they have hung by his ankle from a tree limb. They have also taken pains to bind the CREATURE, who it is obvious could take an most of them and win in a fairer fight. He is about nine feet tall, powerfully built, and his screams of frustrated agony are truly unbearable. The GOBLINS have devised a unique method of harassing him. They ALL carry long sticks which have small, fierce, biting CREATURES on the end of them. The GOBLINS bat their sticks at LUDO, who bellows and tries to swat back. Since he is tied, the NIPPERS are free to bite him whenever they get near.] ANOTHER ANGLE SARAH: The poor thing! [HOGGLE peeks out from behind SARAH, then quickly ducks back. SARAH looks for a way to stop the torture. She picks up a rock and carefully aims it at the nearest GOBLIN. It hits his head and knocks his helmet visor over his eyes. Blinded, the GOBLIN lurches around, swinging his nipper stick at the OTHER THREE.] BLINDED GOBLIN: Hey! Who turned out the lights? [The OTHER GOBLINS see a new target and poke their nipper sticks towards him. He takes off and runs blindly into the hedge maze. The OTHER THREE chase him, carrying the nipper sticks upright no that WE CAN SEE their progress in the BG.] ANOTHER ANGLE [SARAH desperately tries to untie the huge knot that holds LUDO suspended upside down. She cant undo it and yells for HOGGLE] SARAH: Get out here, you coward! [HOGGLE appears from behind his hedge. He hesitates, then pulls a dagger from his belt and joins SARAH. He cuts through the rope in one hack, and LUDO falls to the ground with a thud.[ ANOTHER ANGLE [The nipper sticks start yammering away as they see SARAH and HOGGLE freeing LUDO over the top of the hedge. The GOBLIN chase stops and they head back to the clearing. HOGGLE dives for the bushes but a determined SARAH stays and pulls off the ropes. When LUDO is free, he picks up a huge log. As the FOUR GOBLINS come roaring back into the clearing, LUDO waves the log over his head. The GOBLIN charge immediately shifts into a GOBLIN retreat, the nipper sticks yipping in fear.] ANOTHER ANGLE [LUDO puts down the log and sits, his big shaggy head hanging down. He taken one hand and wipes away a tear.] LUDO: Ludo ... hurt. SARAH: Is that your name? Ludo? LUDO: Goblins ... mean to Ludo. SARAH: Oh, I know! They were terribly mean to you. (she moves closer and pats his arm) But its all right now. [LUDO sniffs and then breaks into the most endearing big dumb smile you have ever seen.] LUDO: Friend! SARAH: Thats right, Ludo! Im your friend. Im Sarah. LUDO: Sarah ... friend! [HOGGLE has come out from hiding during this exchange. He finds the whole scene a bit nauseating. And an unnecessary nuisance. If theres one thing he doesnt want, its competition for SARAH.] HOGGLE: I think Im about ta be sick. [They ignore him and LUDO grins for all hes worth as SARAH beams up at him. HOGGLE pulls her over to one side.] HOGGLE: I hope yer not thinkin o lettin the beast traipse along, Missy. Hell just slow us up. SARAH: Are you kidding?! Hell be a great help! The goblins are scared of him because hes so fierce ... [Just then LUDO shyly offers SARAH a flower that he has just picked for her. She takes it and smiles at him.] HOGGLE : I sees what ya mean. SARAH shrugs and gives LUDO a pat. HOGGLE sighs with frustration. HOGGLE: I just thinks we was doin fine on our own. SARAH: And we can do even better with Ludo. You want to help me save my baby brother, dont you, Ludo? LUDO: Save ... baby. Good! [SARAH nods with satisfaction and strides into the hedge maze. LUDO right behind her. HOGGLE follows, clearly unhappy.] EXT: FOREST GATE - DAY [SARAH, HOGGLE and LUDO come out of the hedge maze and see a wall with two SARAH-sized doors in it.] HOGGLE: This is it, the entrance ta the Forbidden Forest. All we gotta do is pick a door ... SARAH: What difference does it make? Lets just go! LUDO: One door ... good. One door ... bad. HOGGLE: Well, thats great news. Dont suppose ya know which is which? [SARAH skirts around LUDO and goes up to the doors for a closer look at them.] LUDO: One door ... good. One door ... HOGGLE: All right, ya walkin mountain! Ya made ya point. ANOTHER ANGLE [SARAH ignores the bickering behind her and examines the doors. Each one has a door knocker on it. Both knockers are carved into faces, except one has the ring going through its ears and the other has it stuck in its mouth.] SARAH : I guess once you choose a door ... all you have to do is knock. KNOCKER 1: Are you addressing me? SARAH: You can talk! KNOCKER 1: What? What? Youll have to speak up!! KNOCKER 2: mmffn ... grnth ... sminvl ... SARAH: You too! KNOCKER 2: ... gmft ... bmble ... ANOTHER ANGLE HOGGLE: If yer so smart why not show us another way inta the forest? LUDO: Ludo ... not ... know. HOGGLE: That figures, dont it? Why the Missy wants an overgrown hill o hair fer a friend is beyond me. [LUDO tries to make HOGGLE feel better and pats him on the shoulder. HOGGLE shakes his hand off with a growl.] ANOTHER ANGLE SARAH: I love it! Talking doors!! Are you the right door to the forest? KNOCKER 1: It doesnt do to ask me. For some reason I cant hear a thing. KNOCKER 1: No use asking him, either. All he does is mumble. KNOCKER 2: thgt ... vrnf ... lcl ... SARAH: I get it! You cant talk with that ring in your mouth! SARAH: Now, tell me which one of you is the right door to the forest. KNOCKER 2: Oh, I am. No question about it. SARAH: Great! How do we get you to open up? KNOCKER 2: One merely has to knock. SARAH: Of course, why didnt I think of that. KNOCKER 2: Oh no you dont, young lady! Ive had just about enough of that awful thing, thank you very much! SARAH: But how are we supposed to get through this door if you wont let me knock on it? KNOCKER 2: Well, I really couldnt say now, could I? KNOCKER 1: Oh do speak up, both of you? I cant hear a thing! ANOTHER ANGLE HOGGLE : Ya know ... even if she does get the door open, ya wont be able ta fit through. Why not make it easy on us all and take a hike? LUDO: Ludo ... Stay! HOGGLE: Yer quite the speechifier, aint ya? ANOTHER ANGLE SARAH: Are you sure there isnt anything I can do to change your mind? KNOCKER 2: Absolutely not! My lips are sealed! SARAH: Thats what I thought! [The KNOCKER presses its lips firmly together. SARAH deftly squeezes its nose shut. It sputters for air and finally has to open its mouth before it suffocates. SARAH shoves the ring in with a gleeful cry of triumph. She knocks, and the door swings open.] SARAH: Lets go! [She goes through the door and HOGGLE and LUDO race to follow. They BOTH try to get through the door at the same time and get into such a tangle that the door closes before they can straighten themselves out.] HOGGLE: Now youve done it! HOGGLE: Missy! Missy, wait! EXT: FORBIDDEN FOREST - DAY [SARAH on the other side of the door. Except on this side, there is no door, just a long expanse of wall. The forest is very dark, and as its name suggests, very forbidding. SARAH can hear HOGGLE calling, but it is very faint.] SARAH : Hoggle? EXT: FOREST GATE - DAY [HOGGLE is beating on the doors with such a frenzy that the other door swings open.] HOGGLE: Im coming ... [He rushes through the door and disappears. We can tell from his voice that he is falling down a deep hole.] HOGGLE : ... Miiiiiiiiissy! LUDO: Sarah ... gone. Hoggle ... gone. [He is sad and confused. A FIGURE emerges from the hedge maze and begins to walk along the wall, away from LUDO. It is the WISE ONE. LUDO brightens and chases after them.] LUDO: Wait! HAT: This ought to be a good one! LUDO: Ludo ... need ... door! WISE ONE: You have need of a door, do you? Ah, yes. A very useful thing, the door; also known as a portal or threshold -- and that which gives access, a gate or gangway ... WISE ONE: ... also an entrance or entry, often accompanied by a propylaeum ... HAT : If only I had hands I could cover my ears ... that is, if I had ears ... WISE ONE: ... not to be confused with a window, or fenestration ... EXT: FOREST - DAY SARAH: Hoggle, Ludo ... where are you? [She reaches into her pocket and looks at the watch. The hour hand is on the 7.] SARAH: Oh, Freddie! she shoves the watch back into her pocket Well, you guys are going to have to catch up with me cause I cant wait. INT: HOLE - DAY [HOGGLE is in a pool at the bottom of a deep hole in the ground. There is a ledge just above him and he splashes violently trying to reach it.] HOGGLE: Somebody help me! I cant swim! EXT: FOREST - DAY [SARAH is in a very thick, creepy part of the woods. She is clearly lost. She gets herself tangled in a thorn bush, and struggles with it to get herself free. Finally she does, and then, frustrated, sits down on the ground.] SARAH: Why does everything have to happen to me? [But theres no time to think about that because she hears the sound of a driving drum rhythm and then a wild-looking, spindly, leering LITTLE CREATURE comes scampering through the trees and into the clearing; and then ANOTHER, and ANOTHER and ANOTHER. SARAH is terrified as they approach her, but then not so terrified because the CREATURES arent doing anything except dancing; wild, loose-limbed, frenzied dancing. SARAH laughs, and cant help but be taken in by the wild spectacle. And then they begin to encircle her, still moving to the wild rhythm.] SARAH : What are you? WILD THING 1: Were Wild Things, baby! Wild! WILD THING 2: Wild and free! WILD THING 3: Get down! [And then more WILD THINGS appear, and these produce instruments. As and turn the drum rhythm into a frenzied upbeat number.] WILD THING 1: You call that wild! Ill show you wild! [And then he does an amazing thing, to say the least. He takes his head off and rolls it along his arms from hand to hand like a juggler, then tosses it high in the air and deftly catches it on his shoulders. SARAH gasps and tries to get sway but another WILD THING pushes her back into the middle of the melee.] WILD THING 2: Cut me some slack and move on back! [And they do, and, moving to the pounding rhythm, he takes his eyes out of his head and waves them at SARAH. He then tosses them on the ground as if they were a pair of dice. They land at SARAHs feet looking straight up.] WILD THING 2: Snake eyes! [SARAH is fascinated and repelled. And the beat gets hotter and the frenzy more frenzied and she cant help getting a little wild herself. She begins to really dance.] WILD THING 3: Thats it, baby, get wild and free! But youll never be as wild as me! [And to prove it he takes his head off and begins to dribble it like a basketball. WILD THING 1 leans over to SARAH and whispers conspiratorily.] WILD THING 1: I wouldnt call that really wild, would you? SARAH: Well, its ... uh ... sort of ... WILD THING 1: Id call this wild ... [And he takes off his head, puts it on the ground as if it were a golf ball, and then removes a leg and uses it as a golf club. The head goes flying, right to SARAH. SARAH catches the head, then tries to get it back to its body but the body dances into the middle of all the other WILD THINGS and she cant find it. So theres SARAH, running around like a chicken with two heads when suddenly the ears start to flap and the head flies out of her hand. A WILD THING grabs her hand and turns her around.] WILD THING 2: That was wild, baby. he starts to dance Now how bout gettin wild with me? SARAH: I think Ill sit this one out ... WILD THING 1: Not with us you dont ... WILD THING 2: Cause were wild! [And then theyre all over her, like a bunch of hyper puppies, and its really too much.] SARAH: Enough! Ive got to find the castle! WILD THING 2: Well, why didnt you say so, baby! WILD THING 3: Thats a _wild_ idea! [And then his head flies off and he has to quickly grab it and put it back and meanwhile the OTHERS start pushing and pulling on SARAH and propel her into the woods.] WILD THING 1: They got some wild goings on at the castle, baby! INT: HOLE - DAY [HOGGLE is holding on to the ledge with his fingertips. He doesnt have the strength to hold on much longer and he looks down at the water in mortal terror. He begins to slip just as a door opens in the sheer rock and JARETH enters, accompanied by GOBLINS.] JARETH: Well, what have we here ... if it isnt little Piggle! [HOGGLE screams and slips into the water. He tries to struggle back to the ledge but the GOBLINS push at him with poles, laughing maniacally.] JARETH: Did the girl decide she doesnt need you, now that she has that beast? HOGGLE : She wouldnt do nuthin like that! JARETH: Dont you know she could never care for a repulsive thing like you! HOGGLE: She does care! Me n Sarah is friends! JARETH: Only until something better comes along ... and Ive definitely got something better in mind! HOGGLE: Dont you hurt her! [HOGGLE grabs on to the ledge and the gleeful GOBLINS push him back down into the water.] JARETH: What I do to her is my business ... and it is inevitable. JARETH: You can be with me or against me. HOGGLE : Wh ... what do I gotta do? JARETH: I doubt if she can make it to the castle in time ... JARETH: But just in case, I want you to deliver her to me. HOGGLE: Never! Id rather die! JARETH: Then so you shall. [He drops HOGGLE back into the water. The GOBLINS shriek with delight. HOGGLE goes under and comes up sputtering.] HOGGLE: Wait! [JARETH was about to leave. He turns back to HOGGLE, a look of amusement on his face.] HOGGLE: I gotta know what ... what youll do to her! JARETH: I will do what ever amuses me ... JARETH: All you have to do is give her this. [He tosses HOGGLE the peach. HOGGLE catches it and immediately the water starts to recede.] JARETH: Youve made a very wise decision. HOGGLE: I didnt decide nuthin! [HOGGLE stares forlornly at the peach, and soon the water is gone and he is sitting on cold, damp ground.] EXT: FOREST - DAY [The WILD THINGS are leading SARAH on a rocky path. She stumbles along but they couldnt care less.] SARAH: Are you sure this is the way to the castle? WILD THING 1: Oh, did you say the castle? WILD THING 2: I thought she said hassle! WILD THING 3: I thought she said rassle! WILD THING 1: Rassle! Thats a wild idea! SARAH: OK, guys, funs over. WILD THING 2: Over! Its just begun! [And then the musicians are back and the dancing gets wilder than ever. The WILD THINGS totally surround SARAH, and though they arent hurting her, they are definitely not letting her out. What they do is start throwing their heads at each other and switching them.] WILD THINGS 1, 2 & 3: Now this is really wild! ANOTHER ANGLE [A door opens in a nearby boulder and LUDO appears. In the background WE CAN SEE and hear the WISE ONE as he wanders off.] WISE ONE: ... very often preceded by a porch, or portico, also verandah, and followed by a vestibule, otherwise known as an antechamber or foyer ... HAT: Why me?!! [The door closes. LUDO sees SARAH in the middle of this weirdness and is just a bit confused. SARAH sees him amidst the flying heads and cries out in relief.] SARAH: Ludo! LUDO: Sarah ... not ... want ... castle? SARAH: Are you kidding?!! Get me out of here!!! [LUDO approaches the WILD THINGS and grabs a head before it reaches its target and calmly tosses it into the trees.] WILD THING 3: Hey, big fella! Thats a little too wild ... [But theres no time to talk because LUDO calmly catches the other heads and tosses them away. The bodies go scurrying after their heads, followed by the MUSICIANS. SARAH is free.] SARAH: Oh, Ludo! Im so glad youre here! SARAH: Wheres Hoggle? LUDO: Hoggle ... in ... bad ... door. SARAH: Weve got to find him! Do you think we can? LUDO is very confident. He spent a lot of time with the WISE ONE. LUDO: Ludo ... knows ... doors ... LUDO: also ... portal ... or entrance ... INT: HOLE - DAY [HOGGLE is more depressed than ever. The peach is nowhere to be seen. Suddenly LUDOs head appears above.] LUDO: Hoggle ... all ... wet. HOGGLE: Aint that the clever observation, ya feeble excuse fer a thinkin creature! SARAH: Be nice, Hoggle. Or we wont get you out. HOGGLE: Missy! INT: FOREST - DAY [SARAH, HOGGLE and LUDO march through thick, overgrown forest. They do not know that they are being spied on by JARETHS GOBLINS.] INT: CLEARING - DAY [The THREESOME emerge into a clearing and see that they have come to a wide fissure that goes off in either direction as far as the eye can see. It is spanned by a rickety bridge held by two thick wooden posts on either side of the gap. SARAH eyes the bridge warily.] SARAH: It doesnt look too strong but we dont have much choice ... VOICE : Halt! Halt or be slain forthwith! [At first they dont see a thing and look around for the source of the voice. Then, the imposing 18 inch high figure of DIDYMUS, resplendent in rakish hat and swashbuckling sword, emerges from behind one of the posts and stands in front of the bridge. LUDO and SARAH are dumbstruck. HOGGLE, however, is not at a loss for words.] HOGGLE: Out of our way, ya wretched little rodent ... DIDYMUS looks directly at HOGGLE. DIDYMUS: You, sir, shall be the first to feel the point of my sword! SARAH: Please, we really have to cross this bridge. Its a matter of life and death! DIDYMUS: Under any other circumstances I would hasten to oblige you, fair damsel, for your mission sounds a worthy one. SARAH: Oh, it is! DIDYMUS: But I am sworn. Without my permission, none may pass. [SARAH throws up her hands and HOGGLE mumbles under his breath. It appears to be up to LUDO to break the deadlock. He lifts DIDYMUS up into the air and moves him to one side. They then start to walk toward the bridge and DIDYMUS chases them, brandishing his sword.] DIDYMUS: You dishonor me, varlets! En garde! DIDYMUS: Rapscallions! Duel ... or die! This gets their attention and they turn to look at him, annoyed. HOGGLE: What is this weasel babblin about? [It is too much for DIDYMUS. He flings himself at HOGGLE with a mighty war cry. HOGGLE tries to run for it but DIDYMUS is right behind him, administering more than a few pinpricks in embarrassing places. HOGGLE dives behind a bush and DIDYMUS sniffs at his cowardice. He comes back and faces LUDO.] DIDYMUS: It is you I want, rogue of rogues. You who dealt me the gravest affront! [And with that he jabs LUDO in the foot! LUDO is stunned, and howling, begins to hop on his good foot. DIDYMUS, his head thrown back for a triumphant yell, goes after LUDO with his sword flashing and there is nothing for LUDO to do but pick up a branch and defend himself. It is the most mismatched duel in the history of chivalrous absurdity DIDYMUS moving at an incredible speed, parrying the mighty swipes of LUDOs branch with great skill -- and no small amount of difficulty. And LUDO fending off the incessant pinpricks of the little sword, leaping about with surprising agility -- and at a rate that exhausts him totally. Finally, the two of them, breathing heavily, lower their weapons. And, to everyones surprise, DIDYMUS throws down his sword.] DIDYMUS: I no longer wish to slay you, for you are a truly noble knight. [Then DIDYMUS strides up to him and, craning his neck, attempts to look LUDO in the eyes.] DIDYMUS: Destroy me if you will. [LUDO quickly drops his branch in response. The whole thing has upset his gentle nature terribly. DIDYMUS then holds out a tiny paw.] DIDYMUS: Never have I met my match in battle, yet you, noble knight, have fought me to a standstill. DIDYMUS: Let us be brothers henceforth, and fight for the right as one! [SARAH cheers and HOGGLE, unimpressed, rubs his sore rear. LUDO smiles from ear to ear.] LUDO: Ludo ... get ... brother! [Then he and DIDYMUS exchange the ritual kiss on each cheek, which in their case is not easily accomplished. SARAH then turns practical.] SARAH: Well, now that thats settled lets get going. DIDYMUS: You forget my sacred vow, my lady. I cannot let you pass. SARAH: But you said Ludo was your brother! How can you refuse him?!! DIDYMUS: I have taken an oath. I must defend it to the death. HOGGLE: Some brother he turned out ta be! LUDO: Brother ... good! HOGGLE: Well, if hes so good, why wont he let us get on with our business? [LUDO scratches his head. He has no idea. SARAH sits down beside the crestfallen DIDYMUS.] SARAH: OK, lets handle this thing logically. What exactly have you sworn? DIDYMUS: I have sworn with my life-blood, no one shall pass this way without my permission. SARAH: Then may we ... have your permission? [DIDYMUS is stunned. HOGGLE and LUDO barely breathe. Slowly DIDYMUS looks all around and then, with a courage greater than any he has ever had to call on before, he says it.] DIDYMUS: Yes. [And the sky doesnt fall, and the earth doesnt heave, and everything is exactly as it should be.] SARAH: Thank you. [DIDYMUS breathes a sigh of relief and steps aside to let them pass. LUDO is the first one to go over and that is unfortunate. Because the rickety bridge collapses under his weight. SARAH and HOGGLE jump back on the ground near DIDYMUS just in time and poor LUDO swings over the deep fissure, hanging on to one of the ropes that held the bridge. With a mighty effort he hoists himself up on to the opposite side and looks forlornly over at the others.] SARAH: Oh no! [SARAH crumples to the ground, and stares miserably at the broken bridge.] HOGGLE: Now see what ya done, ya mush-brained mammoth! DIDYMUS: I, Sir Didymus, take responsibility for the actions of my brother, my lady. Lash out at me if you must. SARAH: Im not mad at Ludo, Sir Didymus. Im just upset because time is running out and I have to rescue my baby brother. DIDYMUS: You mean to rescue a child?!! SARAH: The goblin king took him, and Ive only got ... SARAH: ... five hours to get him back. DIDYMUS: Is this your quest, too, my brother? LUDO: Save ... baby. DIDYMUS: Then I shall join you, lady. I am at your service, upon my sword. SARAH: I happily accept your fealty, Sir Didymus. HOGGLE: This is all well an good, Missy. But we still got one little problem. LUDO: Ludo ... friends. HOGGLE: Yes, yes. Were friends. Very nice. Whats that got ta do with us gettin over there without a bridge? LUDO: Rocks ... friends. HOGGLE: Were wastin our time, Missy. Lets you an me go find another ... [He is interrupted by LUDO bellowing, which is followed by a sympathetic rumbling. Suddenly rocks pile in from both directions until there is a pile in the fissure high enough for them to walk across.] LUDO: Rocks ... friends! SARAH : They sure are, Ludo! [She skips happily across followed by a sullen HOGGLE. DIDYMUS whistles and is quickly joined by a tail-wagging SHEEPDOG. SARAH gasps, he is the spitting image of her own MERLIN.] SARAH: Its ... DIDYMUS: Ambrosius! My noble steed. EXT: FOREST - NIGHT [The edge of the forest. From here you can see the castle in the distance, just across the dry, cracked plain. The sky is full of stars. SARAH, HOGGLE, LUDO and DIDYMUS are sitting around a fire.] DIDYMUS: What will you do after we save the child, my lady? SARAH: Take him home, of course! That is, if I can figure out how. DIDYMUS: What is your kingdom like? Do you have many knights to defend your honor? SARAH: Not even one. DIDYMUS: It cannot be! What bitter place is this that does such dishonor to my lady? SARAH: Its a place where ... where nobody really sees me. LUDO: Ludo ... see ... Sarah! SARAH: I know you do, Ludo. she turns to Didymus And thanks to you, Sir Didymus, I finally have a knight. [He bows graciously. HOGGLE, who has been watching this scene, feels rejected and miserable. He gets up and wanders away from the fire. After a moment, SARAH follows him.] SARAH: Dont you feel like resting? HOGGLE: I aint tired. SARAH: Me neither. What I am is hungry. [HOGGLE winces but SARAH doesnt notice. SARAH looks back at LUDO and DIDYMUS. LUDO lies on his back snoring loudly. DIDYMUS dozes against AMBROSIUS side.] SARAH: Theyre both wonderful, arent they? HOGGLE: Theyre alright. SARAH: Theyre more than that! Theyre loyal and strong ... and with their help Im going to beat Jareth! SARAH: And yours, too, of course. HOGGLE: I aint no fighter ... [She shrugs that off and wanders away to look out at the castle. HOGGLE goes through agony for a moment, and then makes a decision.] HOGGLE: Missy ... if youre hungry ... [He holds out the peach that JARETH gave him: the worlds most delicious looking peach.] SARAH: Oh, great! [She happily taken the peach and bites. It takes everything HOGGLE has to not put his hands over his ears. She takes another bite and then stumbles.] SARAH : Everythings dancing ... SARAH: Even the stars are dancing! [HOGGLE turns and walks back to the fire. SARAH stumbles about as she gazes happily at the sky.] INT: CASTLE - NIGHT [FREDDIE is leading the GOBLINS on a merry chase. He crawls around the room, pulling things off shelves. A GOBLIN is on his hands and knees in front of JARETH polishing his boots. JARETH kicks the GOBLIN and sends him flying across the room. This makes FREDDIE laugh and he pulls a book off the shelf and throws it. It hits a GOBLIN on the head. JARETH scoops up FREDDIE and puts him in his cradle. He sits down next to him.] JARETH: Little goblin-to-be, I have something to amuse you. [He waves his hands in front of FREDDIE and suddenly beautiful crystalline balls appear in them. He runs them over his fingers like so many coins, their molten light so dazzling that FREDDIE kicks up his legs with excitement. And WE CAN SEE that at the end of his pajamas are two wizened goblin feet! JARETH laughs and flings the balls into the air and they turn into bubbles, beautiful, mesmerizing bubbles.] JARETH: Soon, little one. Very, very soon ... [And they both watch the bubbles as they fly out the window and over the labyrinth, coldly beautiful against the darkening sky.] EXT: FOREST - NIGHT [SARAHs hand opens slowly and the half-eaten peach falls to the ground. She stares out into the sky, mesmerized. The bubbles are approaching; dazzling, dancing bubbles. And then she hears music, haunting, spell-casting music. The bubbles come closer and WE CAN SEE that each one contains a TWIRLING DANCER, a DANCER just like the one in SARAHs music box. She gets up and follows them.] ANOTHER ANGLE HOGGLE: Damn you, Jareth! And damn me too! ANOTHER ANGLE [A bubble, with SARAH inside it, floating through the sky. She appears enchanted, and she begins to twirl, just like the OTHER DANCERS.] EXT: BALLROOM - NIGHT [A giant bubble, with a magnificent ballroom inside it. Tiny bubbles rush to join it. In one of them is SARAH.] INT: BALLROOM - NIGHT [The music changes and now SARAH is inside the ballroom. It is a magnificent spectacle with all the beauty and decadence of an 18th Century Venetian ball. Magnificently dressed DANCERS swirl to the music in an incredibly opulent setting. But when you look closer you sense decay just beneath the surface; things are threadbare, faded. The GUESTS wear masks that are elegant parodies of goblin faces, giving them all a slightly sinister look. And there is something very provocative about all of them; the WOMEN have bare shoulders and daring decolletage, many of the MEN have their shirts open to the waist. Some of them lounge against the wall indolently and there is the feeling that the party has been going on all night. In this setting SARAH is the picture of innocence. TWO WOMEN snickering behind their fans as SARAH approaches, and she is suddenly terribly self-conscious. How plain She feels amidst all this! She looks into one of the many mirrors that line the ballroom and sighs at her image. Then suddenly she sees something in the mirror that makes her gasp.] ANOTHER ANGLE [The mirror, and in it the reflection of a resplendent JARETH dancing with a particularly exotic-looking WOMAN. SARAH whirls around, trying to get another glimpse of JARETH. She is so intent on trying to see him that she doesnt notice that she is being stared at brazenly by a YOUNG MAN leaning against the wall. He moves next to her and whispers something into her ear. She hurries away, shocked; and the YOUNG MAN throws back his head and laughs. And JARETH sees the whole thing.] ANOTHER ANGLE [SARAH is approached by a MIDDLE-AGED MAN who has a box hanging at waist height from a ribbon around his neck. It looks like SARAHs music box. She looks down at it with interest and he throws open the cover. But there is no dancer inside, instead there is a stick carved like a snake. It shoots out at SARAH and she cries out and backs away. ALL THE PEOPLE around her laugh and she moves hurriedly on. JARETH, who is dancing with an even more beautiful WOMAN than before, watches SARAH.] ANOTHER ANGLE [SARAH is looking for JARETH. She spots him and sees him whisper something to his partner who smiles knowingly from beneath her mask and licks her lips. SARAH blushes and turns away and finds herself looking into another mirror. But in the reflection, JARETH isnt with a partner. He is standing alone, the DANCERS a whirling blur around him, and he is looking straight at her. SARAH, whirling around to face the crowd and she sees JARETH with yet a third BEAUTY. And then she realizes that it is herself! In a trance-like state she moves through the CROWD to get a better look.] ANOTHER ANGLE [SARAHS POV - She is whirling in JARETHs arms, and she is the most beautiful woman at the ball. JARETH smiles down at her and the attraction between them is palpable.] JARETH: You look like a queen. SARAH: I ... I feel like ... I ... dont know what I feel ... JARETH : Dont you? [And he whirls her around dizzyingly, so dizzyingly that she swoons in his arms. He catches her before she can fall very far, tightening his grip around her waist.] SARAH: Are we ... are we in a bubble? JARETH: Yes, we are. A dream bubble ... where your dreams can come true. ANOTHER ANGLE [OUR SARAH is being jostled by the crowd. She stumbles and almost falls on top of a COUPLE on a bench. The WOMAN is sprawled across the lap of the MAN who wears a mask with a very phallic nose. SARAH backs away from them, frightened.] ANOTHER ANGLE [JARETH and SARAH, dancing. She is smiling up at him, he has never looked more handsome. There is something more open about him, as if he, too, is caught up in the moment. He nuzzles her hair with his lips and whispers in her ear.] JARETH : My Queen! [Then he begins a song. A song that tells SARAH he will give her everything she wants, even things she doesnt know she wants. A song that says forget it all; all the restrictions, all the powerlessness. Forget and stay in the dream.] ANOTHER ANGLE [OUR SARAH watches, mesmerized. But every time she tries to get closer to JARETH and SARAH she in jostled by a lascivious ADMIRER, pushed out of the way by WOMEN laughingly being chased by MEN. She stumbles against a wall and a door opens. Inside, pillow feathers are flying and she cant make out what the SEVERAL PEOPLE are doing. A WOMAN comes up to the doorway, winks at SARAH, and closes the door.] ANOTHER ANGLE [JARETH finishes the song and SARAH looks up at him, smiling. He moves his face closer to hers and she closes her eyes. His face comes closer, and closer.] ANOTHER ANGLE [OUR SARAH shrinks back from what she is seeing. She turns and runs, pushing herself though the languid CROWD, right into the bubble itself.] EXT: BALL - NIGHT [SARAH comes crashing through the bubble and the whole ballroom crumbles. In seconds it resembles nothing so much as a junkyard.] EXT JUNK CITY - NIGHT [SARAH runs through the streets of a part-market, part-junkyard. There are piles of rubble and junk everywhere, and between them are tents from which PEOPLE hawk objects of all kinds. Some of them approach SARAH and she pushes them away, sobbing.] ANOTHER ANGLE [SARAHS POV - A RED TENT, and standing in front of it is an OLD WOMAN stooped over from the objects piled high on her back. She beckons to SARAH and pulls the tent flap aside.] JUNK WOMAN: Ere it is, Dearie. All the fings you want, all the fings you need. ANOTHER ANGLE ANOTHER ANGLE [SARAH gasps at the sight and runs headlong into the tent. She trips over the threshold and lands face down on her bed.] INT: SARAHS ROOM - NIGHT [SARAH sits up on the bed and looks around the room. She shakes her head and laughs.] SARAH: What a dream! [She gets up and stretches, then walks over to the mirror. She smiles at her reflection.] SARAH: Yep, youve got quite an imagination, kid, Just what a great actress needs. SARAH: How about a midnight snack, Sir Lance ... EXT: JUNK CITY - NIGHT [SARAHS POV - THE MARKET/JUNKYARD TEEMING WITH ACTIVITY. The JUNK WOMAN peers in.] JUNK WOMAN: Avent you got everythin you need, Dearie? INT: SARAHS ROOM - NIGHT SARAH: It is just a dream! [She takes a deep breath and goes to the door again. She opens it very slowly.] EXT: JUNK CITY - NIGHT [SARAHS POV - THE SAME TEEMING ACTIVITY. The JUNK WOMAN peers in again.] JUNK WOMAN: Best to stay in there, where its safe, Dearie. Dont know what might appen to you out ere. INT: SARAHS ROOM - NIGHT [SARAH clams the door again and rushes over to the window. A GROUP OF REVELLERS peer in at her and laugh. She quickly pulls the curtains closed and walks back to the center of the room. She stands clutching the bear, then looks up at her reflection in the mirror.] ANOTHER ANGLE [SARAHS reflection. Herself as a very old woman, clutching a teddy bear.] OLD SARAH: Best to stay in here where its safe. Dont know what might happen to you out there. SARAH steps back from the mirror and suddenly the floor becomes a sea of mud and all the objects in the room come falling down on her. As she tries to rise out of the muck more objects land on and around her and pull her down. SARAH: Help! Somebody help me! EXT: JUNK CITY - NIGHT [LUDO and DIDYMUS desperately searching for SARAH, DIDYMUS riding his DOG.] INT: TAVERN TENT - NIGHT [HOGGLE sits at a bar, drowning his sorrows. A JUNK MAN/BARTENDER works behind the bar. HOGGLE slams his cup down.] HOGGLE: Another! [The BARTENDER holds out his hand greedily. HOGGLE pulls a treasure off his belt and slams it on the bar. The BARTENDER pours.] EXT: JUNK CITY - NIGHT DIDYMUS: Did you see a noble maiden pass this way? JUNK WOMAN: A noble maiden, eh? What would she be doin in a place like this? DIDYMUS: Shes on a rescue mission ... JUNK WOMAN: A rescue mission, ha! Youre in the wrong place, for sure! The only fings we cares about rescuin around ere is our worldly goods! [She takes an oil lamp off her back and shines it on her sleeve for emphasis.] INT: SARAHS ROOM - NIGHT [SARAH is drowning in a sea of junk. She hears DIDYMUS and cries out hopefully.] SARAH: Didymus, in here! Help me! JUNK WOMAN: Dont worry, Dearie. I sent im away! JUNK WOMAN: Knew you wouldnt want to be leavin your nice fings for no rescue mission. SARAH: Oh my god! Freddie! JUNK WOMAN: Freddie? Is that one of them dolls over there ... or that nice teddy? SARAH: No! Hes my brother! And Ive got to save him! JUNK WOMAN: No you dont, Dearie. You can stay right ere with all your pretty fings ... SARAH: I know I can. But I dont want to! [She lifts herself out of the junk with a mighty heave and stands in the doorway. She looks down at the JUNK WOMAN triumphantly.] SARAH: Now get out of my way! EXT: JUNK CITY - NIGHT [The JUNK WOMAN pulls something off her own pile and holds it out to SARAH.] JUNK WOMAN: Wait, Dearie! Look at this! [She holds out SARAHs music box, opens it, and the little DANCER twirls inside.] SARAH : Keep it! [And she is off. As SARAH goes the CAMERA LINGERS on the JUNK WOMAN. And we begin to move around to her other side and even though we had just seen her from all sides, we now see something very, very different. Where the other side of the woman should be WE SEE a cross-section of her, with JARETH inside. His head is beneath the pile of junk and his hand is inside her head making it laugh. He is the puppeteer operating the JUNK LADY, as indeed, she has been operated. JARETH is mad.] JARETH: Damn. EXT: CASTLE GATE - NIGHT [LUDO and DIDYMUS sit forlornly at the gate. SARAH appears out of the night.] DIDYMUS: My lady! LUDO: Sarah ... safe! DIDYMUS: Is Hoggle not with you? SARAH: Hoggle made his choice, hes ... not part of the mission anymore. DIDYMUS : The coward! LUDO: Hoggle ... good! SARAH: Maybe. But theres no time to discuss it. Weve got a baby to rescue, remember! EXT: GOBLIN TOWN - NIGHT [Streets full of hovels encircle the castle. This is where the GOBLINS live. As SARAH, LUDO and HOGGLE walk through the dark, eerie streets they are met by the slamming of shutters and the extinguishing of lights.] DIDYMUS: Methinks they are expecting us, my lady. [A CHILD GOBLIN peers at them from an open doorway. A FEMALE GOBLIN sees him and drags him inside and slams the door.] SARAH : Methinks youre right! INT: TAVERN - NIGHT [HOGGLE is still at it. He pulls his belt off his body and WE SEE that the only treasure left is SARAHs plastic circlet. He slowly pulls it off and stares at it. The BARTENDER approaches, his eyes lighting up at the eight of this treasure.] BARTENDER: Another? [HOGGLE hesitates, then hands the circlet over. The BARTENDER bites it and his face lights up with glee.] BARTENDER: Plastic! [He goes to get the drink and HOGGLE puts his face down on the bar and sobs.] ANOTHER ANGLE [At the other end of the bar sits the WISE ONE. The HAT looks over at HOGGLE and shakes his head knowingly.] HAT: Drinkin to forget, eh, buddy? WISE ONE: To forget, ah yes. To suffer a mental lapse, to obliterate from ones consciousness, to suffer amnesia, a blank or fugue, to drink the waters of Lethe ... HOGGLE : Whats Lethe ... WISE ONE: The waters of forgetfulness. They remove from our minds what is too painful to remember ... WISE ONE: ... but with the memory goes our wisdom, or knowledge, that which brings us understanding, also enlightenment ... [But there is no one to continue benefitting from the WISE ONEs pearls. HOGGLE is gone.] HAT: You can cool it down there ... hes gone ... WISE ONE: ... a grasp of things, a depth or profundity of thought ... [The HAT sighs and looks over at the BARTENDER who is still admiring his plastic treasure.] HAT: Another one over here ... and make it a double ... EXT: GOBLIN TOWN - NIGHT [SARAH, LUDO and DIDYMUS emerge into the vast courtyard outside the castle. It in eerily quiet. Too quiet.] SARAH: Were going to make it! DIDYMUS: I am less than sure ... [They are interrupted by a high-pitched shriek as a GOBLIN jumps on LUDOs back. Then the courtyard is filled with GOBLINS, what seems like the whole army, coming right at them. DIDYMUS fends off the VANGUARD PARTY with his sword and LUDO punches out the ones that get by him. DIDYMUS unswords a GOBLIN and his weapon goes flying. SARAH picks it up and does some parrying of her own. But there are too many of them. The threesome turn and run.] INT: CASTLE - NIGHT [JARETH stands by the window, watching the battle. The WHITE BIRD sits on his shoulder. JARETH looks over at FREDDIE who stands holding on to the side of the cradle. JARETH smiles and turns back to the melee below. The BIRD flies out the window.] EXT: GOBLIN TOWN - NIGHT [SARAH, LUDO and DIDYMUS race down the streets. The GOBLINS are in hot pursuit.] EXT: STREET - NIGHT [They come careening around a corner and it seems that they have escaped their pursuers. The sound of the GOBLINS seems to be getting farther away.] SARAH: I think we lost them. [They turn and see that, unfortunately they have come full circle and are right back in the courtyard. LUDO climbs part way up a wall and looks over the streets.] DIDYMUS: What do you see, my brother? [LUDO gulps. What he sees is the GOBLIN ARMY coming down every street right towards them.] LUDO: Ludo ... see ... trouble! [And then the trouble arrives and SARAH and DIDYMUS are heavily into swordplay. LUDO tries clumsily to get down and is tormented by GOBLINS who prick at him with their spears. SARAH looks up and sees his predicament. She gets an idea.] SARAH: Call the rocks, Ludo! Call the rocks! EXT: GOBLIN TOWN - NIGHT [An enormous rumbling is heard and soon the streets are filled with boulders, all careening towards LUDO. They knock GOBLINS out of their path like so many bowling pins.] EXT: COURTYARD - NIGHT [SARAH and DIDYMUS fight bravely. LUDO keeps bellowing and throwing off the occasional GOBLIN that is stupid enough to jump on him. Soon the rocks reach the courtyard and form a barrier between the THREESOME and their ATTACKERS. LUDO reaches down and lifts SARAH and DIDYMUS on to the wall. They jump and disappear into the castle enclave.] INT: CASTLE - NIGHT [A door opens in a dark part of the castle. LUDO, SARAH and DIDYMUS enter. They look around and quickly tip-toe down a dark corridor. They turn a corner and see some GOBLINS marching their way. They duck out of sight.] EXT: CASTLE - NIGHT [The main entrance to the castle. TWO-GOBLIN GUARDS stand outside the large wooden doors. The results of the THREESOMEs escape can be heard in the distance. A FIGURE staggers out of the dark, singing drunkenly. It is HOGGLE.] HOGGLE: ... its so cold in the night with no gold to keep me warm ... GUARD: Who goes there? HOGGLE ... so cold, oh so cold ... GUARD 2: Dont worry about him. Hes on Jareths payroll now. HOGGLE: Thash right. Jareth owes me sumthin ... an Im here ta collect ... INT: CASTLE - NIGHT [A GROUP OF GOBLINS stand in a circle in a corridor. They torment a tiny, fuzzy yapping CREATURE with their nipper sticks. The CREATURE gets away from them and goes scurrying down the corridor. The GOBLINS laugh. It turns a corner and starts yapping for all its worth.] ANOTHER ANGLE [SARAH, LUDO and DIDYMUS pressed against the wall, trying to not be noticed. Unfortunately the little CREATURE has no sympathy for their plight. It stands at their feet, making a ruckus.] SARAH : Shut up, you little monster! LUDO: Nice ... thing ... [But the CREATURE doesnt want a pet. It sinks its teeth into LUDOs hand. LUDO howls.] DIDYMUS: I fear that this means trouble. SARAH: Run for it! INT: CORRIDOR - NIGHT [The THREE are running for all theyre worth. SARAH pulls the watch out of her pocket. It is on the 12:30.] SARAH: Only a half hour left! Weve got to find Freddie! ANOTHER ANGLE [Yet another GROUP OF GOBLINS running right toward them. They stop in their tracks and start running in the opposite direction.] INT: INNER COURTYARD - NIGHT [The THREE come careening into the long narrow inner courtyard. Balconies look down on it from the floor above. Opposite them is a large ornate door. They have a lead on the GOBLINS chasing them, but not for long.] ANOTHER ANGLE [On one of the balconies a particularly repulsive little GOBLIN laughs sadistically. The THREE look up and see the GOBLIN with his hands on a huge lever. He pushes it down gleefully and the floor opens up in front of the THREESOME. It appears to be a bottomless pit, too wide to leap across. Horrified they look behind them and see the GOBLINS gaining on them. And theyre throwing spears! Suddenly there is a triumphant yell from the balcony opposite the repulsive GOBLIN, and then a FIGURE leaps off it swinging on a rope.] SARAH: Hoggle! [It certainly is! He wrestles with the hideous GOBLIN and in the struggle it falls screaming into the pit. HOGGLE then grabs the lever and it is not a second too soon. The pursuing GOBLINS are entering the courtyard.] ANOTHER ANGLE [The floor closes and the THREE run to the door. An enraged PURSUER aims a spear at HOGGLE. He is hit. SARAH screams as LUDO struggles with the door. It wont budge and he begins to smash his body against it.] ANOTHER ANGLE [A seemingly half-dead HOGGLE staggers to his feet and throws his body on the lever. He appears to faint from the strain but the weight of his body pushes the lever and the floor opens again.] ANOTHER ANGLE [The enraged GOBLINS are stopped in their tracks by the yawning pit. They hurl spears at the THREESOME but it is to no avail. LUDO smashes down the door and they run in.] INT: JARETHS QUARTERS - NIGHT [SARAH, DIDYMUS, and LUDO carrying HOGGLE enter the room where we have seen JARETH and FREDDIE. They lock the door behind them. No one is there and FREDDIEs cradle is rocking, as if someone had removed him only moments before. LUDO places HOGGLE down and SARAH looks feverishly around the room. She spots a door.] SARAH: Thats the only way he could have gone! SARAH: No. I have to face him alone! DIDYMUS: But, my lady ... [He is interrupted by the sound of GOBLINS in pursuit. They start trying to smash down the door. LUDO runs to it and presses his body against it. HOGGLE moans and DIDYMUS and SARAH run to his side.] HOGGLE: I dont expect ya to fergive me, Missy, but ... SARAH: Forgive you for what? Saving our lives? HOGGLE: But, I betrayed ya, I gave ya that damned peach ... SARAH: Ssh! You did the only thing you could do ... SARAH: ... and I see you lost all your treasures in the process. HOGGLE: I dont care if I never sees another treasure again! SARAH : Here. Just in case you change your mind. [She slips off her mothers ring and presses it into HOGGLEs hand. He is overwhelmed and SARAH smiles at his pleasure.] HOGGLE: And Jareth said ya could never love me. SARAH: Jareth doesnt know everything. SARAH: Take care of him, Didymus. DIDYMUS: Ill guard the valiant Hoggle with my life! [The GOBLINS give the door a particularly loud smash and LUDO presses against the door even harder.] LUDO: Ludo ... too! SARAH: No maiden could have wished for nobler knights. ESCHER ROTUNDA - NIGHT [SARAH enters an overwhelming room with many staircases, balconies and doorways at different heights and at all kinds of strange angles that obviously have no relation to what we know as gravity. Her knees buckling from vertigo. Then she gasps.] ANOTHER ANGLE JARETH: Ive been expecting you. [SARAH stumbles and falls into the room, ending up on the ceiling. She tries to adjust to being upside down.] SARAH: Wheres Freddie?!!! [She has to look down and sideways to see JARETH and it is clearly grueling.] JARETH: Hes right there. [And he points to one of the stairways that juts out at a right angle from the wall. FREDDIE is climbing up the stairs happily, but from SARAHs point of view it looks like he will fall when he gets to the top.] SARAH : Freddie! No!!! [FREDDIE gets to the top but doesnt fall, instead he ends up crawling up the wall. SARAH sighs with relief and closes her eyes. This sends her reeling and she ends up in one of the archways. She tries to orient herself but there is no up, no down, no sideways. And the BABY is about to crawl off a balcony! SARAH screams and JARETH laughs. He begins a song that tells SARAH she never really understood what was gain on. Nothing is what it appears to be, not even things like up and down.] ANOTHER ANGLE [FREDDIE in the most precarious-looking situation yet, at the top of a staircase. He hesitates to crawl down, and to lure him, JARETH creates a ball out of thin air and throws it to the BABY. Of course, it bounces up. And all the while his song is taunting SARAH. She turns away from him and looks into the large mirror framed in the archway. She sees endless SARAHS. And while shes looking, the first reflection runs to the left, the reflection behind that to the right, and so on all the way down the line. And SARAHs still standing there! She falls backwards and ends up standing on the floor, watching FREDDIE chase his ball across the ceiling. JARETH dances on the wall now as he is about to finish his song. And there is FREDDIE on one of the balconies facing out of the rotunda. If he falls off that, hell really fall! SARAH runs up the opposite wall and finds that there is sheer space between her and the BABY. The only way to reach him is to jump. She looks at JARETH who grins at her, then at FREDDIE who is teetering on the edge. As JARETH comes to the end of the song there is nothing to do but jump. She looks at JARETH and cant repress a grin of her own.] SARAH: Like the man said, nothing is what it appears to be! INT: JARETHS CHAMBERS - NIGHT [SARAH falls right on to a magnificent huge bed. Opposite her JARETH sits in a chair. FREDDIE, wrapped in a blanket, is gurgling on his lap. SARAH reaches into her pocket and pulls out the watch. It is a few minutes before 13. JARETH stands up.] JARETH: Theres still time. [He gestures to a clock on the wall that shows the same time as her watch. He places FREDDIE into a cradle and comes over to the bed. He looks down at her.] JARETH: Besides, Im no longer interested in having a little goblin prince. Ive decided Id much rather have a queen. [He looks into her eyes for a moment. SARAH doesnt look away. Instead, she slowly eases herself off the bed and stands facing him.] SARAH : A queen? Have you chosen anyone I know. [She glides by him and walks to the window. JARETH chuckles appreciatively.] JARETH: Youve come a long way, little girl. SARAH: I certainly have. JARETH: Yes, I can see it in your eyes. No one else has ever made it this far in the labyrinth, no one else has ever been worthy ... [He takes her hand and brings it to his lips. She smiles down at him.] SARAH: Whats your offer. [JARETH stands quickly and looks at her. She certainly has come a long way!] JARETH: Why, everything ... youll rule by my side. SARAH: Everything? The chance to spend my life surrounded by repulsive goblins ... the chance to torment innocent creatures ... JARETH : ... the chance to never have a care in the world, to never have to do anything that you dont want to do. SARAH: Anything else? JARETH : Why, me. Of course. [SARAH surreptitiously eyes the clock. There is about a minute left. She glides away from the window and tries to position herself closer to FREDDIE.] SARAH: And what if Im not interested? JARETH: Impossible. I know you, I know what you want ... SARAH: Well, Ive got news for you, Jareth. SARAH: I dont want you! SARAH : Why, you miserable creep! [JARETH has hold of her arms but she breaks away and hauls off and punches him in the jaw. JARETH steps back, stunned. SARAH scoops up the screaming FREDDIE.] SARAH: How could you do this to an innocent baby?!! JARETH: You hit me! SARAH: And Id like to do more ... you, you ... ! [She is furious and wants to hit him again badly. Since she has the BABY in her arms she makes do with kicking him hard in the shin. JARETH howls and grabs his leg.] SARAH: I wouldnt want you if you were the last ... goblin on earth! [The WHITE BIRD flies through the window and lands on SARAHs shoulder. JARETH puts his hands on his ears.] JARETH: Dont say that! JARETH: Look at me! How could you do this to me! [Before SARAHs eyes JARETH turns into an undersized, ineffective, snivelling little GOBLIN. The features are those of a goblin, but still recognizably JARETH.] INT: CASTLE - NIGHT [JARETHs quarters, where DIDYMUS tends HOGGLE and LUDO still blocks the door.] JARETH : Why does everything have to happen to me! [They look at each other and suddenly LUDO realizes that the GOBLINS are no longer trying to break down the door. The THREE start to laugh.] HOGGLE : She did it! INT: JARETHS CHAMBERS - NIGHT JARETH: Nobody ever cares about what I want! [The walls and floor shake so from his pounding fists and feet that a crack opens up right in front of SARAHs feet. She looks at the clock and the minute hand moves to the 13. She looks at FREDDIE. Theres nothing to do but jump into the void. The clock begins to strike.] SARAH: OK, Freddie. Time to go bye-bye! EXT: SKY - NIGHT [SARAH and FREDDIE spinning through the dark, starry sky. The striking of the clock continues.] ANOTHER ANGLE [CLOSE ON SARAH AND FREDDIE. SARAH pulls him closer, lovingly. And they go on spinning.] INT: NURSERY - NIGHT [SARAH is lying face down on the floor. She comes to slowly and tries to sit up. Groaning, she rubs her head where it bumped on the corner of the open drawer. She tries to focus, blinking her eyes.] ANOTHER ANGLE [SARAHS POV - Her eyes slowly focus on FREDDIEs crib. When she can see, she gasps. FREDDIEs not there! The side of the crib is down and the BABY is nowhere to be seen.] SARAH: Freddie! [She leaps to her feet woozily. Still rubbing her head she staggers out into the hallway.] INT: RAILWAY - NIGHT [SARAH looks down the hallway and suddenly her face breaks out into a delighted grin.] ANOTHER ANGLE [SARAHS POV - LITTLE FREDDIE is crawling slowly, but determinedly, into SARAHs room. When he gets to her bed he uses all his strength to pull himself up on to his feet by holding on to the bedspread. Be then holds his hand out, trying to reach something.] ANOTHER ANGLE INT: SARAHS ROOM - NIGHT SARAH : Thats quite a journey you took, Freddie. [FREDDIE looks up at her and makes a sound. He continues straining, and WE SEE that what he is reaching for is Lancelot, SARAHs bear. SARAH smiles, and lifts FREDDIE up. She sits on the bed, FREDDIE on her lap, and hands him the bear.] SARAH: Here. Its yours. SARAH : You earned it. [She kisses his head and rocks him gently. Then she gazes out the window at the stars.] EXT: HOUSE - NIGHT [The light shines from SARAHs window. The WHITE BIRD flutters down from the starry sky. It perches in the tree beside the path.] THE END

It was a day in that blue month September Silent beneath the plum trees slender shade I held her there My love, so pale and silent As if she were a dream that must not fade Above us in the shining summer heaven There was a cloud my eyes dwelled long upon It was quite white and very high above us Then I looked up And found that it had gone And since that day, so many moons in silence Have swum across the sky and gone below The plum trees surely have been chopped for firewood And if you ask, how does that love seem now I must admit, I really cant remember And yet I know what you are trying to say But what her face was like, I know no longer I only know I kissed it on that day As for the kiss, I long ago forgot it But for the cloud that floated in the sky I know that still and shall forever know it It was quite white and moved in very high It may be that the plum trees still are blooming That womans seventh child may now be there And yet that cloud had only bloomed for minutes When I looked up It vanished on the air
