Page-04
Guy- reading from a
booklet titled]-“customs of all the races and people of all countries in the
world in the year 1965”
Eid- this locator will tell us our exact location!
Oh! This is England and these people have not yet bridged
the channel----- conversation is going on outside garth’s house.
Guy looks up England in the booklet- England was fully
civilized in the year 1965!
Eid-ok!, we can speak with any bdy after we take this
international language tablet!
Now we have to search for those areas whele they can pick us
back to our time…give me the book
Guy-[defiantly]—“I can read!”
Eid- don’t be afraid , once they come to know of our
situation they will make arrangements to find the area where we can be picked
up”…they will pick us up with the help of” time ray” once they locate the
area..
Guy-I know , I may be a mere man but I am not afraid!
Eid- then pick up the satchel and prepare to move!
Guy- “no!’
Eid-“ come! I have taken
out the details of this map”
Guy- ok.. member of superior women’s organization now have a
look at the map closely!
The region where they can pick us up is half the distance of
the world, thousands of mile from here.. How will we reach there? On foot? Oh!
–exclaims eid when realization dawns on her!
Page-05
Guy -if we have to go halfway round the world we will have
to enlist the help of some local person!
Eid-you are right!
Eid- there is a house over there! Let us wake them up!
Guy- intelligent woman! I recommend that you read this
booklet first!
Because they may be in habit of eating up strange women , take some
precautions first!
Eid[reding from the booklet]- what is marriage ? I have
never heard about this before!
Guy-probably it is an ancient custom where a woman selects a
single man… dos not change him every year!
Eid- this is a very strange, I will have to go through this
booklet!
Eid [reding from the booklet][amazed]- guy infact it was the
man who used to select a woman!
Guy[smugly]- so we are in a time when man was more
important!
Eid-[outside garth’s residence]-we have landed up in a very
strange time zone!
This is a romantic
nuclear age. Man is superior than and controls the woman , there is ancient
custom of marriage!
Guy- we will have to rsort to some romantic method to enlist
the help of a local[[this conversation is going on while Garth sleeps
blissfully unaware of the drama being played out outside his residence!]
Guy- the window is open!
Eid- right!
Remember this is a romantic time if there is aman inside
this house I will easily take him under my control…and if there is a woman you
try and win her affections to best of
your capacity!
Guy- men find it a little tough , but I will give it a try!
Page-06
Guy-eid !it is a man!
Eid—I will role play romance like in olden times! You stay
downstairs while I make him agree to help us!
Garth wakes up in very strange circumstances….[with eid
leaning on top of him holding his neck in her arms]
Eid tries to play a make believe romantic role from 10thousand years past as she visualizes
in her imagination.[holding garth in close embrace---“you are so attractive,I
want to marry you!
Garth[amazed]- what did you say?
Eid-You are so strong
and handsome, but I don’t even know your name
Garth- but that hardly seems to bother you! Would you please
leave?
Guy watching from outside garth’s open bedroom door
[thinking]-he does not seem to desire her, but I do!
Eid[offended]-what did you say?
Garth-get lost!....not very good!...but you are not my type!
Eid- stop! You thankless man! How dare you say this to me?
Guy- this does not
seems to be the way of making friends here…
Page-07
Eid- you rude man! How dare you treat me like this? No man
can survive after insulting me like
this, who are you?
“I am garth!”
Garth- it seems you had a lot to drink in some dance party
late in the night
Eid who is being lifted up and carried out of the room -- release me! Let me go!
Garth-let me first drench you in cold water first!... garth [spotting guy by
side of bedroom door]- o.k. so another reveller !
Guy- how are you doing?
Eid- I am fine , do I
take it that you are a neutral bystander
in this whole drama!
Guy- it was eid’s idea , why should I interfere?
Garth goes to the bathroom, with guy following him!
Eid- stop him! Otherwise you will be punished!
Guy[thinking to himself]- he seems to be doing to do the right thing!
Guy [to garth]- are you really going to soak her?
Gath- yes she deserves this!
These sour women take
advantage of their being women!
Garth has thrown eid in to the shower!
Eid shouts-“I hate you!”
Garth- “ look already there is some improvement!—I will
throw you some clothes now!
Eid coming out of shower drenched to skin and furious-why
did you not stop him?
Guy-because if we want to return to out time zone we will
have to make friends with him.
Eid – you must have enjoyed yourself hugely!
Guy- I could not have stopped him , so I thought why not
enjoy myself!
Page-08
Garth –eid strip off your wet clothes and wear these
payjamas, they belong to my friend professor lumiere who has gone out for some
weeks
eid[surprised] men are professors here?
Gath- what is so surprising about this?
Guy- men use to run
the world in these ancient times.
Eid- I forgot!
Garth- by the time your friend is ready you can have a drink
with me
Guy- she is my boss not my friend!
Garth- now a days
many women are holding top jobs
efficiently
Guy- garth really we are not from the present time
Garth- so what is the difference between past and
present?[thinking to himself]—“this couple seems to be old fashioned.
Eid has stripped off her wet clothes in the bathroom
toweling herself[thinking]- guy will surely make some foolish mistake like all
men… I will have to make haste..
Meanwhile guy is enjoying a drink—“ it is a delicious drink”
Garth- yes ! it is called scotch whiskey!
Garth- guy what secret things are hidden in your satchel?
Guy- not secret but personal postage letters for the year
2985!
Eid is changing
clothes in the bathroom[thinking to herself] I will have to keep in mind the
fact that I have reached a time zone in the past where animals like garth used to rule the
earth! We will have to hide the truth from garth and cook up a story and take his help in reaching the designated area for pick up back to our
time.
Meanwhile guy is under the influence of liquor…garth the
truth is eid and I are from the future!
Garth is that so? Eid is furious with guy on learning that
he has already revealed the truth to garth-“ you have told him against the
rules that we are time couriers!”
Guy- that is the only way to enlist his help, we cannot fool
him!
Garth- look I have had enough of this joke , I am going
to turn in now..
Guy – [holding the satchel to garth – you will not believe
me without a proof, this satchel can not be opened without the help of a time
key
Garth- let me open it to have a look inside!
Garth tries to open the satchel with the help of a knife ,
acid and blow torch but that cloth is indestructible!
Eid- “you are mad to have given proof to that primitive man,
he will never help us unless we threaten him!
He is a man from the dawn of civilization , it will not be
difficult!
Guy – if you want to threaten him consider me out !
