Transcript

HUGO CARMICHAEL: What?

LEV ARRIS: Hugo Carmichael?

HUGO CARMICHAEL: Who wants to know?

LEV ARRIS: My name's Lev Arris, I have some questions for you.

HUGO CARMICHAEL: Yeah, I bet you have. It's a pity, I'm fresh out of answers.

LEV ARRIS: It looks like you're going somewhere in a hurry.

HUGO CARMICHAEL: What gives you that impression?

LEV ARRIS: Malakai.

HUGO CARMICHAEL: Mala-what?

LEV ARRIS: Your sudden depature wouldn't have anything to do with Malakai, would it?

HUGO CARMICHAEL: Only if I believed in ghosts. Listen, well, I've got a ship to catch.

LEV ARRIS: Not before I ask you a couple of questions about a box you're taking care of.

HUGO CARMICHAEL: I don't know nothing about no box.

LEV ARRIS: Someone named Larn Regis.

HUGO CARMICHAEL: You running on a new brain, or what? Nobody told you that worm food's nothing to worry about? Now get out of here.

LEV ARRIS: You seem a little nervous.

HUGO CARMICHAEL: Only about missing my ship.

LEV ARRIS: Does this have something to do with me?

HUGO CARMICHAEL: You really restore my faith in human stupidity. Hand me my trunks.

LEV ARRIS: Let me help you somehow.

HUGO CARMICHAEL: You? Help me? You got a ship? You got d-drive?

LEV ARRIS: Yeah.

HUGO CARMICHAEL: Well, so have I, and I'm going to Hephaestus. It's a long journey and nasty things can happen when you're flying alone. So, if you're so keen to play the good samaritan, you can watch my ass, okay?

LEV ARRIS: Sure. Is it Malakai you're worried about?

HUGO CARMICHAEL: Jesus, you are behind the times. Malakai was a code name for Larn Regis. He fried when the Canera went down. Haven't laughed much since my first divorce.

LEV ARRIS: Malakai on the Canera?

HUGO CARMICHAEL: We'll talk when we get to Hephaestus.

Characters

Speaking

25th Anniversary

On May 20, 2020, Privateer 2: The Darkening director Steve Hilliker released The Darkening 25th Anniversary Restoration which featured footage restored from Betacam tapes. The footage has been edited down into a cinema cut but where available it is of much higher quality than the game's files.

Betacam

A pair of Betacam SP tapes recovered from Digital Anvil have provided high quality versions of much of Privateer 2: The Darkening's Main Plot. These cuts are not final and digital effects are missing.

Origin Museum VHS

A VHS tape digitized by Joe Garrity of the Origin Museum included versions of edits 7 through 74.

Storyboards

A collection of Privateer 2 Storyboards has been provided by Joe Garrity of the Origin Museum. They cover the Main Plot cutscenes.

Script

A The Darkening Script Draft 7 used during the game's shooting has been provided by Erin Roberts.

SC.206 INT. APARTMENT HALLWAY-DAY -OUTSIDE HUGO'S DOOR *

Arris touches the annunciator. The door opens. A big,
burly man looks out: this is HUGO CARMICHAEL. He has a know-
it-all, cocky attitude: the conversation proceeds in a tone
of good-natured scorn.

HUGO
What?
ARRIS
Hugo Carmichael?
HUGO
Who wants to know?
ARRIS
My name's Lev Arris. I have
some questions for you...
HUGO
Yeah, I bet you do! 'S a pity
I'm fresh out of answers.


SC.207 ON ARRIS

As he leans past Hugo and looks into his room. There are
travel cases lying around half packed.

ARRIS
Looks like you're going somewhere
in a hurry.
HUGO
What gave you that impression?


SC.208 ANOTHER ANGLE

ARRIS
Malakai.
HUGO
Mala what?
ARRIS
Your sudden departure wouldn't
have anything to do with Malakai,
would it?
HUGO
(laughs)
Not unless I beleived in ghosts.
Look, bub, I've got a ship to catch.
ARRIS
Not before I ask you a couple of
questions. About a box you're
taking care of --
HUGO
I don't know nothing about no box.
ARRIS
And someone named Larn Regis -


SC.209 ANOTHER ANGLE

Hugo looks up at Arris as he finishes his packing. Just a
little of the humor has gone off him, but much is intact.

HUGO
Are you running-in a new brain or
what, boy? I already said, that
worm-food's nothing to worry about.
Now get outta here.
ARRIS
You seem a little nervous.
HUGO
Only about missing my ship--
ARRIS
Does this have something to do
with me?
HUGO
(laughs)
Oh boy, you really restore my
faith in human stupidity.
(Points)
Hand me my trunks.
ARRIS
Let me help you somehow...
HUGO
You help me!
(Beat. Slams the case closed)
You got a ship? You got D-drive?
ARRIS
Uh, yes...
HUGO
Well, so do I. And I'm going to
Hephaestus. It's a long way...and
nasty things can happen when you're
flying alone. So if you're so keen
to play the Good Samaritan you can
watch my ass, okay?
ARRIS
Sure. Is it Malakai you're worried
about?
HUGO
(laughing affably at the dummy)
Jeez, you are behind the times.
Malakai was a codename for Larn Regis.
He fried when the Canera went down.
Haven't laughed so since my first
divorce!

Arris is stunned.

ARRIS
Malakai...on the Canera?
HUGO
We'll talk when we get to Hephaestus.

And Carmichael is out of there in a rush. More or less
astonished, Arris goes after him and OUT OF SHOT.
