We open to an undisclosed location, it's completely dark except for one area that's flooded with light. Within this area there is a complete surgery setup, complete with machinery, the operations tools, the table with the covered up patient on it, and a small team of doctors that are surrounding the operation table. The head surgeon stands at the front of the operation table, he has a handful of the sheet as he looks past the team of doctors into the shadows.
Head surgeon: Don't worry sir, we'll take good care of her.
The head surgeon pulls off the sheet to reveal the body of the alternate Mandy and examines her for a moment before turning back to the shadows.
Head surgeon: It shouldn't be too difficult, whatever metal she is made from protected her circuit boards and everything. I'll have to open her up to know more but my guess is the bullets banged something loose inside her head which caused her to shutdown.
From the shadows alternate Frank Banks steps into the light as he reaches into his pocket and retrieves a cigar. After cutting the end off he lights it with a match, taking a few puffs as he holds the match to the tip of the cigar to ensure it's properly lit. He shakes the match until it goes out then tosses it on the floor before moving in closer, taking big puffs from his cigar as he does.
Alternate Frank: See that you do, I paid your boss big bucks for the best care. I lost her once and I'll be damned if I lose her again, but do me a favor doctor remove this death from her memory like you did her original one.
The head surgeon nods and the team gets to work repairing alternate Mandy. Alternate Frank watches for a moment before turning to leave and as he does he pulls out a contract that he signed to have his cyborg daughter saved, the same company that built her for him and gave not only his daughter but his best agent back...Romano Enterprises. Alternate Frank smiles as he continues to puff away from his cigar as the scene fades.
We open back on Maniac’s bus, his and Mandy's clothes are thrown everywhere and they both lay next to each other on the bed breathing heavily after a long love making session(Sorry, you missed the action here while watching what was going on before.) After catching his breath Maniac stands, locates his boxers, puts them on, and heads over to the bar and makes himself a drink. As he sits and enjoys his drink he stares at the spear of destiny, not taking his eyes off of it as he thinks. Mandy gets up and walks over to him, not bothering to get dressed she wraps her arms around him and kisses his neck.
Mandy: What’s on your mind champ?
She smiles at calling him that and Maniac can't help but smile himself, but his smile soon falters as he thinks about what he must do next. He finishes his drink and sets the glass down before wrapping his arms around Mandy's.
Maniac: I have to get Wolfy back.
Mandy gasps as she pulls back, she begs and pleads not to, it's to dangerous and Wolfy wouldn’t want him to risk his life either but no matter how much she pleads he won't budge. Maniac kisses Mandy before grabbing spear of destiny and heading over to the couch, he takes a few deep breaths before he speaks. Would this work? And if it did, where would it put him? He hears the squawk of the parrot Wolfy's brother gave him and Maniac grins, bingo.
Maniac: Bring me back Wolfy.
The spear of destiny begins to shake and light up brightly in Maniac's hand but he holds on tightly and points it at the parrot as the scene fades.
