TRIUMVIRATE SE Deleted Scene 5
By The Host
This scene is changed slightly but importantly, considering
the story’s finale. The reunion between Davies and Johnson
is warmer in this original version of the scene.
JOHNSON
You’ve got a good crew here, Jack.
DAVIES
I guess.
Johnson clambers into the gun pit.
JOHNSON
You guess?
INT. DAVIES’S GUNSHIP -– CONTINUOUS
The window by which Robert entered the cramped cockpit
swooshes closed around him. Jack is already in the cockpit,
getting a feel for the controls.
DAVIES
I don’t think they really like me.
Sometimes they seem like they do.
Macy, I guess. But even he’s been
kinda different since he got
command.
JOHNSON
Oh, yeah? They seem to be good
guys. They’ve only been nice to
me, anyway.
(Looking around)
How long’s it been since you were
in one of these?
DAVIES
Last time I flew one of these I
crashed it into a space station.
JOHNSON
You haven’t flow one since then?
DAVIES
(Grinning)
Don’t worry. Our mission this time
is just to crash it and get out
alive. My specialty.
JOHNSON
As long as you can get us there
alive.
DAVIES
I missed you, Robert. If it wasn’t
for Dawson—
JOHNSON
I hear you two are close.
DAVIES
(Slightly surprised)
Close? I – No, I wouldn’t – not
really. But he’s a very great man.
He’s helped me. He sees promise in
me.
JOHNSON
I still don’t really trust him,
Jack.
DAVIES
You don’t know him then. If you
did, you wouldn’t say that.
JOHNSON
I hear that he and Copley and the
CEO go way back.
DAVIES
It’s not true.
JOHNSON
How do you know?
DAVIES
He would have told me.
JOHNSON
He’s like a father to you?
DAVIES
(Quickly)
My father’s dead.
(Terse pause)
No. But because of Dawson, now I
know why you said you’d be willing
to die.
JOHNSON
You’d give your life for the USS?
DAVIES
I’d give my life for Dawson.
