INTERIOR. DUNGEON WITH STONE WALLS. BARELY LIT.

A huge screen is hanging on the dungeon wall; it is the only light source in the room. In the darkness, many P’Tonatls are gathered in silence listening and watching. On screen, a man with round glasses is speaking softly. He has cropped hair at the sides and shark fin of matted hair on top. He is leaning forward, imposing.

ROUND-GLASSES MAN (softly): CONGRATULATIONS MY FAITHFUL, YOU ARE READY FOR THE FINAL TRIAL.

WHAT YOU CHOOSE FOR YOUR PRISONER

SHALL DETERMINE YOUR FUTURE.

Champiñongo (thinking): I HEAR HIM.

I HEAR HIM AND I CURSE HIM.

ESTEBAN.

DAMN YOU ESTEBAN.
