1G INT. KYNES’S LABORATORY CORRIDOR (ARRAKIS) 1G *


Dead soldiers lie scattered across a sandy stone floor. *
Duncan lies among them. *

CALADAN MILITARY HANGAR *

PAUL *
I saw you lying dead. Fallen in *
battle. Your face clean-shaven. *

Duncan is briefly shaken -- but Paul’s last words flood his *
face with relief. He claps his hands. *

DUNCAN *
Whew! Okay! Not gonna die! *
(points to his beard) *
I shave for no man! *

PAUL *
Duncan... *

DUNCAN *
That’s why you want to come with *
me! Listen. Dreams make good *
stories. But everything important *
happens while we’re awake. Because *
that’s when we make things happen. *

He claps Paul on the arm and heads back to his men... *

DUNCAN (CONT'D) *
I hope the girl part’s true! *

Paul stays behind, lost in his thoughts, out of arguments. *

There’s only one person left to ask. *

22 EXT. CALADAN’S CLIFFTOPS - DUCAL CEMETERY - DAY 22 *


An ancient graveyard overlooking the sea. *

DUKE LETO is carefully wiping stray dirt from a gravestone, *
on which is carved a bas-relief of a man fighting a giant *
bull. *

He sees PAUL walking to join him. Pleased at the sight of his *
son. *

LETO *
I miss him. *

A last look at the grandfather’s gravestone. *
