Roxy: Really?

Masaru: Uh-huh. It’s one of the most exciting movies I’ve ever seen.

Roxy: What happens in it?

Masaru: So, a long time ago, the people of Atlantis built pyramids all over the world.

Roxy: Yeah? OK. And?

Masaru: They had really advanced technology.

Roxy: Oh, I see.

Masaru: And then, there was a big war and everything got destroyed.

Roxy: Hmm. That’s hard to believe.

Masaru: Yeah, maybe. It’s just a movie.

Zaytox: Yes, I saw some humans. Humans really like mobile phones, don’t they?

Masami: Yeah. They weren’t looking at you?

Zaytox: Nobody cared. I heard some young people chatting. They were talking about pyramids.

Masami: Were they? Like the pyramids in Egypt?

Zaytox: I guess so. Humans don’t remember where pyramids came from.

Masami: Where did they come from?

Zaytox: From us. We aliens taught humans how to build them a long time ago.

Masami: Oh, did you?

Zaytox: Yes, that’s why they’re everywhere.

Derek: Yeah, but I’m still a musician.

Doris: Yes, but they have a new bass player.

Derek: He’s nowhere near as good as I am.

Doris: That may be true, but Bill likes him. Why don’t you start your own band?

Derek: Nah, I’m not good at writing songs like Bill.

Doris: Sounds like you’ll always be a Desperate Rat.

Derek: Yeah, I guess so.

Emma: Thank you. I’m Emma Rock with the Big West Daily News.

Peacock: Hello.

Emma: Professor, you wrote the screenplay for Atlantis Wars.

Peacock: Yes. And your question?

Emma: Isn’t it strange for a university professor to be writing a script for a fantasy movie?

Peacock: I agree with you up to a point, but I’ve written several books on the topic of Atlantis.

Emma: Yes, of course, but don’t you think people will get the wrong impression?

Peacock: Oh, I certainly hope not.
