39_S is a main plot cutscene from Privateer 2: The Darkening. It is part of Mission O: Code Breaker. It plays when the player talks to Dimitri Avignoni at the Sinner's Inn on Hermes after viewing 38_S and returning with enough credits to pay Avignoni. This completes the mission.


Transcript

DIMITRI AVIGNONI: Hey, Arris, have you got the funds?

LEV ARRIS: Yep.

DIMITRI AVIGNONI: Great. Let's get on with it. You get comfortable, I'll be back.

--

NEWSREADER: ... the ?Sumas Eye II? has turned up surprising new evidence of alien technology similar to that found on Karatikus. The ?Sumas Eye? is now officially being classified presumed lost after transmissions from its location in a previously unsurveyed star system...

LEV ARRIS: That was quick.

DIMITRI AVIGNONI: It is, when you know how. Go on.

LEV ARRIS: What's that?

DIMITRI AVIGNONI: Duodecaplylatomate.

LEV ARRIS: What?

DIMITRI AVIGNONI: Someone must have nervous body trying to force this out. There's enough duodec here to blow you, me, the Sinners and this whole goddamn side of this port into vaporsphere. And the hole wouldn't even smoke afterwards. Just goes to show you, it pays to spend money on quality work. Meanwhile, if I were you, I'd take that someone quiet to read.

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.

Storyboards

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

Origin Museum VHS

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

Script

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

(Dialogue for when Arris comes back:)

DIMITRI
Hey, Arris -- you got the
funds?

(If he does)

ARRIS
Yes.
DIMITRI
Great. Let's get on with
it.
(Takes the solid)
You get comfortable...I'll be back.


SC.244 INT. SINNER'S INN - WIDER

Arris gets up, walks off and sits down in front of a
holographic display, which is showing some kind of
commercial. This in turn fades to a news program. (We do not
actually see what's happening in the holobox: its active
sides are turned away from us - we see only its back.)


SC.245 ON ARRIS

He watches the news program...at first bored, then more
interested. It continues as PTO.

NEWSREADER (VO COMPUTER GENERATED)
packet from the ill-fated)
The last-received squirt
stellar exploration vessel
Silmar's Eye II has turned
up surprising new evidence of
alien technology similar to
that found on Caractacus...
(beat)
The Silmar's Eye has now
officially been classified
"presumed lost" after transmissions
from its location in a previously
unsurveyed star system were
abruptly cut off, and mission
specialists could not re-establish
contact.
(beat)
This tragedy follows hard on
the heels of the Eye's scientific
triumph a week ago, when its
archaeological team confirmed
discovery of artefacts of a
technologically advanced alien
species, possibly felinoid in
nature, and also possibly
spacefaring.
(beat)
Authorities are promising a
full investigation. Meanwhile,
allotropic iron futures plummeted
when...


SC.246 INT. SINNER'S INN

As Dimitri walks back in. Arris looks up at him
suspiciously.

ARRIS
That was quick.
DIMITRI
It is when you know how.


BC.247 CLOSER

He holds out the solid for Arris to see, and delicately
pinches its sides. Its top pops open, revealing another
slightly smaler solid resting inside it. Dimitri holds the
whole business out to Arris.

DIMITRI
Go on.

Arris takes the solid out, looks at it, looks into the tiny
box. There's something inside it.

ARRIS
What's that?


SC.248 INSERT - INSIDE THE BOX

A little silvery wafer plastered against the bottom of it.

DIMITRI (0.S.)
Duodecaplatylonate.


SC.249 BACK TO ANGLE - THE TWO OF THEM

ARRIS
WHAT?
DIMITRI
Someone must have nervous body
trying to force this honey.
There's enough duodec here
to blow you, me, Sinners',
and this whole goddamn side of the
port into vaporsville. And the hole
wouldn't even smoke afterwards...


SC.250 ANOTHER ANGLE

Dimitri smiles gently at Arris.

DIMITRI (CONT'D)
Just goes to show you...it pays
to spend money on quality work.
-- Meanwhile, if I were you, I'd
take that somewhere quiet to read.


SC.251 WIDER

Dimitri goes back to his game. Arris pockets the solid,
slips out.
