A Request for Understanding and Conversation

Janson Thomas, thank you for seeing me. I'm sorry for the inconvenience. I was just hoping we– might get a moment to chat in private, away from the others. Well– I won't take up too much of your time. I really only have one question: What do you remember about WCKD? You're not in trouble. We're just having a conversation. I'm just trying to understand.

[impatient]

Guard #1 Get your ass back in that chair.

[jabs his finger into Thomas's chest]

Guard #1 Hey! Back off!

[shoves Thomas away]

Thomas WHAT'S YOUR PROBLEM, MAN?! WHAT THE HELL, HUH?! WHY WON'T YOU LET ME SEE HER?!

[aggressively shoves the guard; Newt and the Gladers run over to hold him back]

Bohemian Rhapsody

Unity Among Misfits in Music

John Reid So, tell me. What makes Queen any different from all of the other wannabe rock stars I meet?

Freddie Mercury I'll tell you what it is. We're four misfits who don't belong together playing to the other misfits. The outcasts, right at the back of the room who are pretty sure they don't belong either. We belong to them.

Brian May We're a family.

Roger Taylor But no two of us are the same.

Bohemian Rhapsody

Renaming Jim Beach to Miami Beach

John Reid This is the band's lawyer Jim Beach.

Freddie Mercury We MUST stop calling him that.

John Reid That's his name.

Freddie Mercury We cannot keep calling him Jim Beach. No, that's absurd. Not to mention unspeakably boring. Miami. From now on I dub thee Miami Beach.

Jim "Miami" Beach The sun always sets behind you, doesn't it? On Miami Beach?

Ray Foster Right, now that everybody's got an acceptable name let's get to it.

Bohemian Rhapsody

A Masterpiece Beyond Promised Expectations

Ray Foster ]; groans] Christ. Well, I'm not entirely sure that's the album you promised us.

[after listening to [[w:Bohemian Rhapsody|Bohemian Rhapsody; Freddie stops music reel]

Freddie Mercury No, it's better than the album we promised you. It's better than any album anyone's ever promised you, darling. It is a bloody masterpiece.

Ray Foster Christ.

[under his breath]

John Reid It is a good album, Ray.

Roger Taylor We prefer "masterpiece.

Ray Foster It's expensive, and as for... Bohemian...

Brian May Rhapsody.

[clears throat]

Ray Foster ...Rhapsody. What is that?

Freddie Mercury It's an epic poem.

Ray Foster It goes on forever; 6 bloody minutes.

Freddie Mercury I pity your wife if you think 6 minutes is forever. And you know what? We're going to release it as our single.

[Paul scoffs]

Ray Foster Not possible. Anything over three minutes, and the radio stations won't program it, period. And what on Earth is it about, anyway? "Scaramouche"? "Galileo"? And all that "Ismillah" business? "Ishmillah"?

[chortles]

Freddie Mercury Bismillah.

[pause]

Ray Foster Oh, aye. Bismillah. What's it about anyway? Bloody Bismillah?

Freddie Mercury True poetry is for the listener.

Brian May It ruins the mystery if everything's explained.

Ray Foster Seldom ruins sales. 3 minutes is the standard. John.

John Reid Yeah, we need radio. Format is three minutes. I have to agree with Ray. I actually think the single's Love of my Life.

Brian May No.

John Reid Okay, how about John's song, You're My Best Friend? You know, "Ooh, you make me live." Catchy, stronger.

Ray Foster What about I'm in Love with My Car?

Brian May You're joking!

Roger Taylor Huh.

Brian May Oh, Jesus.

Ray Foster I love it. Well, ] Bohemian Rhapsody will never be that song.

[Freddie kicks Ray's desk; [Wayne's World|that's the kind of songs teenagers can crank up the volume in their car and bang their heads to.]

Brian May It's the band's decision. Bohemian Rhapsody. That's it.

Ray Foster You're My Best Friend. And it's my money.

Roger Taylor Bo-Rhap. Period.

Freddie Mercury Or we walk.

[removes music reel]

Paul Prenter ] was 7 minutes long. It was a hit.

[pauses; [w:MacArthur Park (song)|MacArthur Park]

Ray Foster Look, I'm not arguing with Bohemian whatever's...

Freddie Mercury Rhapsody.

Ray Foster ...musicianship, but there's no way in Hell the station will play a six minute quasi-operatic dirge, comprised of nonsense words! "Bismillah"? Bullshit! I paid for this record, so I say what goes!

Roger Taylor Have we no legal recourse on this?

Jim "Miami" Beach Ray, you did Dark Side of the Moon, haven't you?

Ray Foster I did.

[nods]

Jim "Miami" Beach Yeah, I absolutely love that record. Uh, legally, no. No, he's got your balls in a vice. It's a different matter in a court of public opinion, of course. Ray Foster's a giant name in the music industry, but... to the average person. Say the name "Queen", on the other hand...ears prick up.

[to Roger Taylor; answering his question; shrugs]

Ray Foster We're going with You're My Best Friend. Done.

[refusing to back down]

Freddie Mercury No, we know what we have, even if you don't. It's called Bohemian... ...Rhapsody. You will forever be known as the man who lost Queen.

[he puts his cigarette out on Ray's papers; leaves with the band]

John Reid Temperamental artists, eh? They're well aware they're tied to a contract, but who knows what goes on inside the inscrutable mind of the recording artist?

Ray Foster Mark these words. If they're not careful, by the end of the year, no one will know the name "Queen". Christ!

[brick is thrown through window]

Freddie Mercury You can take that out of our royalties, twat!

[shouting]

Ray Foster Wanker!

Brian May You can shove your gold discs! You made a mistake, Foster!

Freddie Mercury Arsehole!

Ray Foster You'll never have a gold disc, you medium talent! And to think, I worked with ].

[shouting; to Paul; [w: Jimi Hendrix|Hendrix]

Maze Runner: The Scorch Trials

Conflict Over Survival in the Scorch

Thomas Open this door, Janson!

Janson You really don't want me to.

Thomas OPEN THIS DAMN DOOR!

Janson Listen to me! I'm trying to save your life! The Maze was one thing, but you kids wouldn't last one day out in the Scorch. If the elements don't kill you, the Cranks will. Thomas, you have to believe me. I only want what's best for you.

Thomas Yeah, lemme guess– WCKD is good?

Maze Runner: The Scorch Trials

Urgent Changes in Experiment Protocols

Janson Good evening, Dr. Paige. Lovely to see you again. Although, I admit, I-I wasn't expecting to hear from you quite so soon.

Dr. Ava Paige Change in plans, Janson. I'll be arriving a little sooner than expected; first thing tomorrow.

Janson Oh, we'll be delighted to have you. I think you'll be pleased with the progress we've made. As you can see, early results have been extremely promising. Whatever it is you've been doing to them in there, it's working.

Dr. Ava Paige Not well enough. I've just received Board approval. I want all of the remaining subjects sedated and prepped for harvest by the time I arrive.

Janson Dr. Paige, we're going as fast as we can. We are still running tests–

Dr. Ava Paige Try something faster. Until I can guarantee their security, this is the best plan.

Janson Ma'am, security is my job; we're on 24-hour lockdown here. I can assure you, the assets are secure.

Dr. Ava Paige Have you found the Right Arm?

Janson Not yet. We've tracked them as far as the mountains–

Dr. Ava Paige So they're still out there. And they've already hit two of our installations. They want these kids as badly as we do. And I cannot– I cannot afford another loss. Not now, when I'm so close to a cure. If you are not up to the task, I will find someone who is.

Janson That won't be necessary. May I suggest we start with the most recent arrivals–

Dr. Ava Paige Just get it done. Janson. I don't want them to feel any pain.

[Janson starts to leave]

Janson They won't feel a thing.

Maze Runner: The Death Cure

Choices and Survival in a Dystopian Future

Janson Kill you? No, we don't wanna do that. We're gonna take special care of you. We'll keep you alive. Just. And in return– you will give life to the rest of us. The ones we choose to save anyway. Of course, there's not gonna be enough for everyone. Hard choices are gonna have to be made. In time, the Flare virus will burn itself out. The only question is, who will be the ones left standing? And thanks to you, to this, we finally get to choose. A future of our own making. To your health.

['''Thomas:''' Why don't you just kill me?; Rolls up his sleeve to reveal black veins on his left arm, then gets ready to inject the serum with Thomas' blood in it into his left arm; Gets hit in the head with a glass flask by Teresa and falls to the floor unconscious]

Janson Commands Emergency Lockdown and Silence

Janson Lock down the building, send everyone up to 20, and someone shut off those GODDAMN SIRENS!

['''WCKD Soldier:''' Yes, sir.]
