The moment the door shuts behind her, Piter turns to the *
Baron. Frustrated. *

PITER *
If the Duke’s son lives -- *

BARON HARKONNEN *
No Atreides will live. *

PITER *
My lord, you gave your word to the *
Witch. And she sees too much. *

BARON HARKONNEN *
I said I would not harm them. So I *
shall not. But Arrakis is Arrakis. *
The desert takes the weak. *

And now the Baron begins to RISE INTO THE AIR, his hands out *
to the side, palms forward, like some horrible mockery of *
Christ. *

BARON HARKONNEN (CONT'D) *
My desert. My Arrakis. My Dune. *

47BB EXT. ARRAKEEN - NIGHT 47BB *


Moons over Arrakeen. *

47B PAUL’S DREAM: EXT. ARRAKIS DESERT - DAY 47B


Paul follows Chani in a narrow passage between huge rocks.

Chani shows him a little nest of desert mice. They are close
to each other. First intimate moment.

47BA INT. RESIDENCY, PAUL’S BEDROOM - NIGHT 47BA


Paul is dreaming.

47C PAUL’S DREAM: INT. ARRAKIS, DARK ROOM 47C *


A little plate with some spice powder on it. *

GURNEY (O.S.) *
They say: everybody here is *
addicted to it. *

An index comes into frame and grabs some grain with its tip. *
