DUNCAN *


Stabilizers still too lose. *

LANVILLE *
We’ll dial ‘em in. *

Duncan lays one huge hand on Lanville’s shoulder. *


DUNCAN *
Dial faster. *

Lanville grin and nods. Duncan turns to his commandos to give
more instructions, then sees:


DUNCAN (CONT'D) *
PAUL! *

Paul’s been waiting at the entrance of the hanger. Duncan
runs to him and wraps the boy in a hug.


PAUL *
Duncan. *

DUNCAN *
(pushing Paul back) *
You put on muscle! *

PAUL *
I did? *

DUNCAN *
No. Try eating something. *

Paul’s laugh is short: his mood is too serious for joking. He
checks to make sure no one’s in earshot.


PAUL *
So... you’re going back to Arrakis *
tomorrow. With the advance team. *

DUNCAN *
Yeah. *

Paul screws up the courage to ask the impossible. Then: *


PAUL *
I would like you to take me with *
you. *

DUNCAN *
You do? Oh. Too bad. Because no. *

PAUL *
Duncan-- *
