INT. NEW GATE'S HEADQUATERS

"Kate appears frustrated and irritated."

KATE

(Turns to Von who was about to give a presentation.)

Everyone you have recruited so far hasn't been able to meet up to our standard so why should we believe that you will get it right this time?

VON

Because I know I am right about this.

KATE

(Turns to Code 9)

Dad, I still think this is a total waste of time.

CODE9

(Turns to Kate)

So, what do you suggest we do?

VON

Dad!

KATE

I think we should close down our base in Abuja for now.

Von's ideas have not worked so far.

CODE9

Hmm, true.

VON

Dad, you cannot do that.

CODE9

Give me a reason not to.

VON

I will

(Turns to the presentation screen)

I and my team have put a lot of work into this.

Mr. WALTER

Go straight to the point, Von.

VON

We found someone who was able to sneak drugs into one of our potential targets for a long time.

This young man

(Points at a picture of Efe on the screen.)

From my source, he was able to bring our products into Winners Academy.

CODE9

Winners Academy!

Hmm, that is interesting.

VON

I know, right?

KATE

And so, what?

That is not enough reason for us to reconsider...

VON

(Interrupts Kate)

He sold fifty packs of F7 in his first attempt.

Seven hundred and fifty in his first week.

Mr. WALTER

Wow, that's a lot for a secondary school kid.

KATE

That is impossible.

How did he do it?

VON

(Chuckles)

That's a very good question.

Unfortunately, I do not have an answer to that question which is why we have to bring him in.

CODE9

Hmm, are you certain of these numbers?

VON

Yes, sir.

CODE9

Hmm.

Bring him in, then.

This doesn't mean we are letting you off the hook.

If he fits into our plans, then we will try one last time, but if this fails, then we will have to shut down our base and warehouse in Abuja.

VON

It won't fail, sir. I promise.

"Code9 gets up and walks out of the scene without saying a word."

INT. WINNER ACADEMY.

"Kemi catches Efe gazing at her."

KEMI

Oh, God what is wrong with that guy?

SANDRA

Who is that?

KEMI

That Nerd.

SANDRA

You mean Efe?

KEMI

Yeah.

SANDRA

I think he likes you.

KEMI

(Rolls her eyes)

Then he should summon up the courage and tell me.

SANDRA

Hmm, true.

But you know you are way above his league, right?

KEMI

Does it matter?

He is a man.

SANDRA

Whatever

(Files her finger.)

KEMI

(Catches him gazing again)

He is doing it again.

SANDRA

Ehh, let him look, na.

That's his business.

KEMI

Why is Gemma sitting so close to him?

SANDRA

How is that your business?

Don't tell me you are beginning to like him too.

KEMI

Meaning?

(Sandra smiles mischievously at her.)

Stop, it's not funny.

"Gemma sits beside Efe."

GEMMA

(Pushes some change into his pocket.)

My friends liked it, so I want more of it.

EFE

How many tablets this time?

GEMMA

Make it thirty.

EFE

Alright

GEMMA

So how do I get them this time?

"Efe whispers into her ears."

EXT, OUTSIDE OF WINNER ACADEMY'S COMPOUND.

"Cheta and Uche approach Efe."

CHETA

Omo this your uniform nor be here

EFE

(Turns to Cheta)

Don't start abeg.

UCHE

Calm down jor.

Omo this your school is big, Oh.

CHETA

I swear I sure say AC go dey blow una every day.

EFE

Abeg let's go home jor it's nothing too special.

UCHE

Tah!

You can't compare the infrastructure here to that of our school na.

EFE

Whatever let's go.

UCHE

Relax, na

Let's wait for Kome.

"Kemi walks into the scene."

UCHE

(Whispers to Efe)

Nor be your crush be this?

EFE

(Whispers.)

Shut up.

(Smiles at Kemi.)

Hi.

KEMI

You know I was wondering if you were at the cafeteria today to eat or stare at me.

EFE

What?

Who? Me?

KEMI

No, me.

EFE

Oh, sorry I didn't mean to.

KEMI

You know walking up to me for a little chat isn't a crime.

EFE

Really?

KEMI

Yes!

Really! Staring at me like that is creepy

EFE

I'm sorry about that.

KEMI

It's fine, just say hi if you want to.

EFE

(Smiles)

Sure, I will

KEMI

Alright, see ya

(Turns to leave.)

EFE

I would love to have your number if you don't mind.

CHETA

Wow!

KEMI

I will give it to you if you summon the courage to walk up to me tomorrow.

(Walks out of the scene.)

UCHE

(Wraps his hand around Efe's shoulder as they walk towards the main road)

Wow, she likes you, bro.

EFE

Stop.

It doesn't mean anything.

CHETA

Bro, this is your one-time opportunity to shoot your shot.

It's obvious she likes you.

EFE

(Smiles)

Hmm.

CHETA

Ehen that reminds me

How many products did you sell today?

EFE

Just hundred tablets, it was a slow day.

UCHE

Guy that's still a lot.

At least you can assist your Mum in clearing those debts.

EFE

Yeah.

"A black minibus suddenly stops in front of them, two masked men step out of the bus and grab Efe."

CHETA

Let him go

(Cheta and Uche attempt to free Efe from their firm grip.)

"The men in black push Cheta and Uche away, they push Efe onto the bus and drive away."

INT. WAREHOUSE

"Bob gazes at Efe."

BOB

Isn't he too young?

TIGA

I said the same thing.

VON

He is our only hope, guys.

"Efe gently opens his eyes and struggles to talk."

BOB

Boss, he is awake.

VON

(Walks towards Efe)

Mr. Efe

(Pulls off the tap attached to Efe's mouth.)

EFE

Who are you?

What do you want from me?

VON

(Smiles at Efe as he lights a stick of F7.)

Relax, Efe we are not here to hurt you.

EFE

Then why I'm I here?

VON

You are here because you are special, and you will be instrumental in my plans.

EFE

Instrumental, how?

What do you want from me?

VON

You, Efe.

You are what I want.

EFE

Why?

VON

Because I want to know how you were able to bring drugs into Winner Academy.

__________________________________

PRESENT.

INT. DETENTION CENTER.

"Efe turns to Mr. Eric."

EFE

That was how I was recruited.

Mr. ERIC

Hmm, so you were their strategy to save The New Gate's base in Abuja.

EFE

Yes, sir.

Mr. DUKE

So, if all you have said is the truth, then it means you are very important to the company.

EFE

Yes, I am.

Mr. ERIC

(Jots down.)

Since you are a very important asset to the New Gate, then shouldn't they be protecting you?

Because according to you, they framed you for this.

EFE

Yes, sir, it's...

Mr. DUKE

(Interrupts Efe.)

Why the hell will they do that?

Make us understand.

EFE

Because I was trying to escape.

I came here intending to run away from them.

Mr. ERIC

I want to believe you, Efe but I think there is more to this than you are telling us.

EFE

This is the truth, sir I swear.

Mr. ERIC

The New Gate are very organized and their policies against betrayers are very unethical.

Killing you would usually be their only option so I am just wondering why they will choose to frame you.

EFE

Because they do not want me dead.

They need me.

All of this is just sort of a kind of punishment for my actions.

Mr. DUKE

Hmm, that makes sense.

Mr. ERIC

(Gets up to leave.)

Thank you for your cooperation, Mr. Efe, we will do all we can to lessen your sentence.

EFE

Can I ask for a different compensation instead?

Mr. DUKE

You are in no room to negotiate, young man you should be thankful...

EFE

(Interrupts Mr. Duke)

I know and I'm grateful, but this is important.

Mr. ERIC

What is it?

EFE

Is it possible for this not to get to the public?

I do not want my family to find out about my present situation, please, sir.

Mr. ERIC

That is not within our control, you are a criminal involved in a very serious case all of this must come out to the public it's only a matter of when, son.

____________________________________

INT. Mr. ERIC'S OFFICE.

"Mr. Eric turns to Mr. Duke."

Mr. ERIC

What do you think of Efe's story?

Mr. DUKE

Well, it's obvious there is more to it.

Mr. ERIC

I do not believe his story.

Mr. DUKE

What's there not to believe?

Everything he said aligns with the evidence against him.

Mr. ERIC

I know but I think there is more to it.

Efe is not innocent, but I also think he is a victim here too.

Mr. DUKE

How?

Mr. ERIC

First and foremost, his story of being framed makes no sense I mean why would they do that?

Mr. DUKE

To get back at him for trying to run away.

That makes sense to me.

(Chews on a hamburger)

Do you care for?

Mr. ERIC

No, I'm good, thank you.

INT. TUNDE'S RESIDENCE.

"Tunde walks into the sitting room."

TUNDE

Where have you been?

KEMI

Tunde. Please do not start.

TUNDE

What's that supposed to mean?

KEMI

(Gets up)

Just let me be.

(Attempts to walk out of the scene.)

TUNDE

(Grabs her by the arm)

I'm talking to you, young lady.

Why are you acting this way?

KEMI

Let me be, Tunde.

TUNDE

Why can't you see that I am doing my best here?

KEMI

Why can't you understand that I do not care?

Take your kindness and sweetness elsewhere.

TUNDE

What else can I do to make you love me, Kemi?

I will do absolutely anything for you to open your heart to me.

KEMI

All I want from you is to let me be!

I cannot love you

TUNDE

Why?

KEMI

Because I am in love with somebody else.

I can never love you.

(Tunde attempts to slap Kemi.)

Go ahead, hit me!

It won't change how I feel about you, it's just what it is.

(Kemi walks out of the scene.)

"Bema takes out his frustration on the calculator in his hand."

BEMA

Oh God!

(Drops the calculator on the table.)

FAITH

You know destroying the calculator will not solve your problem.

BEMA

Faith, not now, please.

FAITH

It's just an assignment don't kill yourself over it.

BEMA

Easy for you to say, na.

You have done yours.

I just can't figure this out.

FAITH

Then let it be.

The teacher won't kill you for not knowing it.

BEMA

True but my Mum will.

FAITH

Why would she do that?

BEMA

Well, finals are getting close, and that over Sabi Math's teacher told my Mum that I am not doing well in his subject.

FAITH

That's sad.

You can copy mine.

BEMA

So that you will tell the whole world that you helped me.

No, thank you.

FAITH

Fine, at least I was nice.

By the way, I thought you said Kome doesn't like you.

BEMA

Faith, please!

FAITH

Do not pretend like you are not interested in what I have to say.

She likes you too.

BEMA

(Turns to Faith,)

Why are you so interested in this?

FAITH

Because it reminds me that I am living with a dude who is scared of expressing his feelings.

It's like an opportunity for me to put smiles on my face.

BEMA

Who says I'm scared?

FAITH

Your actions say you are.

BEMA

Well, I'm not.

FAITH

Prove it.

BEMA

What?

FAITH

Prove it.

Tell her how you feel when next you see her.

BEMA

What's the point?

FAITH

You are only reluctant to do so because you are scared.

BEMA

That isn't it.

FAITH

Then what is it?

BEMA

(Breaths heavily)

I think she likes someone else.

FAITH

Is she in a relationship with that person?

BEMA

No, I don't think so.

FAITH

Then tell her how you feel.

BEMA

What's the point when she likes someone else?

FAITH

How certain are you about it?

BEMA

I just know.

FAITH

There is no such thing as "I just know."

Just tell her how you feel.

(Gets up)

Good night.

(Walks out of the scene.)

DEJA

We are here, hope all is well.

ZINO

(Breaths heavily)

My brother is still missing and I'm getting worried.

ZARA

You know a single phone call will fix this.

ZINO

I know but I do not want to have anything to do with the company again.

DEJA

(Sits beside Zino.)

And we understand you, ma.

But this is your brother we are talking about.

ZARA

The choice is yours to make.

(Brings out her phone.)

With your permission, I will make the call this minute.

ZINO

Do it.

ZARA

Are you sure about that?

ZINO

Just make the call.

ZARA

As you wish.

(Dials a private number.)

"Funke appears frustrated."

TENI

This is leading nowhere, Funke.

FUNKE

I know but we can't give up.

We have to find out who these beads belong to.

TENI

But how do we do that when we can't even put together what the letters mean?

FUNKE

But people answer Ophia, right?

TENI

I don't think there is anyone who answers that name in this school.

FUNKE

Well, they have to be someone because that is the only name I can think of.

(Gazes at the beads on the desk.)

TENI

How about we just let all of these be?

To be honest, it's not in our place to figure out what happened to Victoria, and remember if we get caught, we will be in big trouble.

FUNKE

No, I can't let this be.

I must find out what really happened.

O-P-H-I-A.

Sophia!

Yes, it has to be it.

TENI

What's that?

FUNKE

I think I have an idea why we are finding it difficult to figure this out.

What if there is a missing letter and that letter is "S"

TENI

Okay...

FUNKE

That would give us a name that makes sense.

Sophia!

TENI

Wow, you might be right.

Now we just have to draft out the list of people who answer Sophia in this school.

FUNKE

There is only one Sophia that I think would be capable of this.

TENI

Who is that?

FUNKE

Dayo's Sophia.

TENI

Funke, we have no proof yet.

FUNKE

Of course, we do.

This is our proof, Teni.

TENI

This doesn't prove that it belongs to her.

Look you have been trying to pin this on Dayo and his group don't you think we should keep an open mind?

That's the only way we can really figure out which of the Sophia's this belongs to.

FUNKE

Teni, it's her!

Believe me.

TENI

Funke relax.

Let's just do this the right way.

FUNKE

Fine but I am going to prove to you that this belongs to her.

Hey, guys.

I'm good and you.

I'm fine.

NGOZI

Where is Isio?

BEMA

She went to the restroom.

NGOZI

Oh, okay.

Kome, how are you?

KOME

Hmm.

"Bema matches Kome's leg from under the bench."

KOME

I'm fine.

NGOZI

Any news from Efe?

KOME

None.

NGOZI

I'm sorry about that.

I can see that it's bothering you.

KOME

Really?

Trust me, you do not want to know what is troubling me right now.

BEMA

Kome!

KOME

(Turns to Bema.)

What?

NGOZI

What's going on?

KOME

You want to know?

Alright, I will tell you.

BEMA

Kome, stop!

NGOZI

No, leave her.

Let her talk because I don't understand her attitude this morning.

KOME

Just so you know, selling drugs won't solve your problem.

NGOZI

What's that supposed to mean?

KOME

Don't pretend like you do not know what I am talking about.

BEMA

Kome, that's okay.

KOME

Bema, leave me.

(Turns to Ngozi)

You think we wouldn't find out that you joined Dayo and his group?

My anger is not just that you joined them but that you kept it from us.

NGOZI

You have no idea how all of these happened, and you have no right to judge me, Kome.

KOME

You know how dangerous they are and yet you....

NGOZI

(Interrupts Kome)

Oh, stop it!

You always act like you are so perfect.

Yes, I admit I made a mistake, but you are not any better.

(Gets up to leave.)

BEMA

Ngozi, please sit down.

"Ngozi angrily walks out of the scene."

BEMA

NGOZI

You know what I mean, Isio.

Why did you tell them?

ISIO

Ngozi, calm down, please.

NGOZI

I trusted you!

ISIO

I know but I had no choice.

I was worried about you, and I couldn't keep it to myself anymore I just had to tell them.

NGOZI

Why?

Is it your secret to tell?

ISIO

Ngozi calm down, please.

KOME

It's nothing, I'm fine.

BEMA

That is not true.

I know you. What is really going on?

KOME

I'm just tired.

(Tears stream down her cheeks)

BEMA

Why are you crying?

(Pulls her into his arm)

KOME

I miss Efe I just want to know that he is fine.

BEMA

I know.

KOME

I know I shouldn't have said the things I said but I was just overwhelmed.

BEMA

I understand you, Kome but still you shouldn't have said the things you said to Ngozi.

KOME

I know and I'm sorry.

BEMA

You have to apologize to her.

KOME

I know.

BEMA

Oya clean off those tears.

(Wipes the tears off her face.)

BEMA

TEGA

(Stops her.)

Just hear me out.

NGOZI

What do want, Tega?

TEGA

I just want to warn you about Frank.

NGOZI

I'm not interested.

TEGA

Look all his going to do is use you.

Frank is a playboy do not fall for his tricks.

NGOZI

Tega, let me be.

TEGA

(Pins her to the wall.)

What do you see in him?

NGOZI

Tega let me go.

TEGA

You know I could offer you so much more.

"Frank pulls Tega away from her."

FRANK

I warned you to stay away from her.

(Punches Tega.)

"Ngozi stands between them."

NGOZI

Frank, that's enough.

Remember we are in school and there are Camera's around.

FRANK

If I catch you close to her again, I'm going....

TEGA

What are you going to do?

We both know just want to sleep with her.

And I pity you, Ngozi because you have no clue about what the animal is capable of.

FRANK

Who are you calling an animal?

(Attempts to hit him again.)

"Ngozi holds Frank."

"Takes off her glasses."

Mrs. IWEBEMA

I thought I made myself clear when I said any form of violent behavior would no longer be tolerated in this school.

FRANK

Ma'am, I can explain.

I didn't mean to hit him

Mrs. IWEBEMA

But you did.

FRANK

I know ma'am but it was because Tega was harassing Ngozi.

TEGA

That is a lie I only tried to talk to her.

Mrs. IWEBEMA

(Turns to Tega)

By violently pushing her to the wall.

Oh, you thought I didn't see that?

TEGA

Ma'am, it wasn't like that.

I was just trying to talk to her.

Mrs. IWEBEMA

But it was obvious she didn't want to talk to you.

(Turns to Ngozi.)

And as for you young lady, what happened?

NGOZI

(Avoids eye contact with Tega)

Ma'am, it's Tega's fault.

Mrs. IWEBEMA

I did not ask you whose fault it is.

I want to know what led to all of this.

NGOZI

Emm, Tega tried to talk to me, but I wasn't interested he tried to force me into the conversation then Frank stepped in to free me from his grip.

Mrs. IWEBEMA

(Turns to Tega)

So, you are the type that can not take no for an answer.

If a lady doesn't want to talk to you the right thing to do is to let her be.

Do you know the school can sue you for harassing your fellow student?

TEGA

I'm sorry, ma.

Mrs. IWEBEMA

Sorry for yourself.

(Turns to Frank.)

And you, I just hope you do not turn out to be the type that will beat his wife every time you are provoked.

FRANK

Ahh, ma no, oh.

I can't do that.

Mrs. IWEBEMA

Shut up your mouth my friend.

Tomorrow all of you will face your punishment now get out of my office.

Ngozi, sit down!

NGOZI

Ma?

Mrs. IWEBEMA

I said sit-down!

(Ngozi sits down.)

Now tell me, what happened?

NGOZI

Ma, it's nothing Tega has just been picking on me.

Mrs. IWEBEMA

What about Frank?

I believe there is more to the reason why he would defend you against his friend.

NGOZI

I don't know, ma he was just defending me.

Ma, Frank is a good person.

Mrs. IWEBEMA

Now you are defending him.

Hmm, you are aware they are under the influence of Dayo's leadership, right?

NGOZI

Yes, ma'am.

Mrs. IWEBEMA

So, if I were you, I would stay far away from them.

Remember you are here today because of the scholarship program, and this is not a good time to lose it.

NGOZI

Yes, ma.

Mrs. IWEBEMA

Now go back to your classroom.

NGOZI

Thank you, ma

Wow, it seems our plan is working.

Now all we have to do is wait for Efe's sentence.

BOB

How long do you think his sentence would be?

TIGA

No one knows for sure but that wouldn't matter as long as he gets access to what we need.

BOB

I'm not trying to be pessimistic but what if he doesn't survive it?

VON

He will survive it.

"Kate comes in unannounced."

KATE

Hello, brother.

VON

(Turns around.)

Kate, my one and only sister what brings you here?

(Stretches his hand wide for a huge.)

KATE

Where have you done with the asset?

VON

So, am not getting a huge from you?

KATE

(Goes closer to Von)

I am not here for petty talks and gestures.

What did you do with the company's asset?

VON

Hmm, I guess you already know the answer to that question.

KATE

What were you thinking?

VON

(Turns to Kate)

He tried to escape, and I decided to use that to my advantage.

KATE

Do you know what you have done?

VON

Yes, I do.

I have solved New Gate's biggest problem.

KATE

Maybe, but you did that at the expense of father's wrath and your life.

VON

I will handle Father, Kate.

Trust me I know what I am doing.

KATE

(Chuckles.)

Do you?

(Drops a file on the table.)

VON

What's this?

(Picks up the file.)

KATE

That is a full profile on Efe.

And guess what you missed out.

He is the younger brother of Zino.

VON

That's not true.

(Begins to tremble as he goes through the file.)

It can't be.

BOB

Who is Zino?

TIGA

The deadliest person I have ever known in my entire life.

BOB

Is she a member of the company or what?

TIGA

She was a member.

KATE

(Turns to Von.)

You know she's going to come for you it's just a matter of time.

I came here to warn you.

And Father wants to see you.

(Walks out of the office.)

Is she that scary?

TIGA

Bob if this is true then we are in trouble.

Zino taught me everything I know I worked with her; trust me she will come for us.

(Places both her hands on her head.)

"Ovie calls Zino to a corner."

OVIE

(Whispers.)

We have to do something about this.

ZINO

I know, I have asked my contacts in Washington to find out everything about the case.

OVIE

You know that wouldn't be enough Zino.

ZINO

That is all I can do for now.

OVIE

We both know that is a lie.

ZINO

What do you want me to do, Ovie?

OVIE

Get him out of that mess or make the people who are doing this to him pay for it.

You know they are only trying to get back at you.

ZINO

Ovie, you know I can not do what you are asking me to do.

I am done with that life.

(Walks away)

"Faith turns to Bema as they walk towards the school gate."

BEMA

What is it?

FAITH

Did you tell her?

BEMA

I don't understand.

FAITH

You know what I am talking about, Oga.

BEMA

(Takes a deep breath)

Look, it's not as easy as you think and besides, I can tell her anytime.

FAITH

Are you stalling Mr. Bema?

BEMA

No, I'm not.

FAITH

Lier.

BEMA

I'm not stalling!

FAITH

Then tell her, now!

She is in the class alone.

Now is a good time.

BEMA

Fine!

"Kome looks around."

Mr. DANIEL

The cameras don't cover this region as I have told you before.

KOME

Are you sure?

Mr. DANIEL

Yes, my love.

(Wraps his arms around Kome's waist.)

I missed you.

KOME

(Smiles)

I miss you more, my love.

Mr. DANIEL

(Kisses Kome)

I miss those lips of yours.

KOME

Really?

Mr. DANIEL

I see them every day in my dreams.

KOME

(Blushes)

I miss yours too.

(Kisses him)

"Mr. Daniel slowly kisses her neck as he unbuttons her shirt. He lifts Kome from the ground and places her on the table."

Mr. DANIEL

(Notice her uneasy facial expression as he takes down her underwear.)

What is it?

KOME

I'm scared, you know I have never done this before.

Mr. DANIEL

Don't worry, I'm going to be gentle with you.

(Slowly sucks her nipples as he takes off his pants)

"Bema attempts to open the door. Catches a glimpse of Kome and Mr. Daniel."
