INT. HONEYBEE HIVE - LEVEL ONE BELOW - NIGHT
(SAMANTHA, MATT, NICOLA)
INSIDE THE HIVE, LINING THE HONEYCOMB WALLS, WE SHINE LIKE BRITTLE STARS [1.], FOR OUR GAZE IS AS ENERGETIC AS LIGHT. WE'RE SIMULTANEOUSLY A REFLECTION OF THE COARSE, BRITTLE, DUSTY PLAINS AND THE TRANQUIL, EXPANSIVE, AND INTRICATE NIGHT SKY. WE LINE THE INSIDE WALLS OF HONEYBEE HIVE. WE ARE THE HONEYCOMB'S EVER-WATCHFUL EYES. AND NOW WE SEE SAMANTHA AND MATT SWIMMING THROUGH THE AIR.
SAMANTHA
Matt, you're glowing. How do you feel?
MATT PEERS DOWN AT HIS WAIST. SURE ENOUGH IT'S YELLOW, BRIGHT YELLOW.
MATT
My chest is warm. Even in this jet of wind I'm feeling warm [3.] [4.]. Butterflies inside. They're moving as fast as us.
SAMANTHA
Caught in an air jet.
THEY FALL TOWARD THE GROUND, THEN SAMANTHA SPREADS HER WINGS AND AGAIN THEY RISE. MATT'S BREATHLESS. HE LAUGHS. HE LOOKS AT SAMANTHA'S SMOOTH SKIN. IT GLOWS ALSO. HE TOUCHES HER WAIST AND LOOKS DEEP INTO HER EYES. HE SPEAKS IN A WHISPER.
MATT
Like we're bioluminescent bacteria [2.] living in a deep-sea sponge with a glass skeleton [2.]. Are we in an aquarium?
SAMANTHA
That's how it feels. This is our ocean hidden in the heart of Utah.
SAMANTHA TOUCHES MATT'S BACK. HE SIGHS. HIS SPINE IS BEGINNING TO GROW.
SAMANTHA
It's growing. Nicola!
NICOLA
Welcome Matt, to the Hive.
ANOTHER BEE, HER HAIR THE COLOR OF HONEY AND GAZE JUST AS VISCOUS, FLIES TOWARD MATT AND TOUCHES WITH HER WING HIS BACK. ONCE, TWICE SHE RUNS THE WING DOWN HIS SPINE. MATT EXHALES. HE CAN SMELL AND TASTE THE ROSEMARY [5.] [6.] THAT HANGS IN THE AIR, THAT COATS THE POT PLANTS AND THE HONEYCOMB WALLS, AND THAT'S ALSO CAUGHT IN NICOLA'S HAIR LIKE A SWEET SPIDER'S WEB. HONEY DRIPS FROM NINA'S LIPS AS SHE PRESSES THEM AGAINST MATT'S. SHE WRAPS FIRST HER WINGS AROUND HIS ARMS, THEN HER SMOOTH BODY AROUND HIS LEGS. AND NOW COLOR APPEARS TO LEAK FROM HER EMBRACE ONTO MATT'S SKIN. HE BECOMES BLACK AND YELLOW. OUR GAZE FLIES LIKE A BEE TO THE OTHER SIDE OF THE ROOM. WE'RE CAUGHT TIGHT IN A MAGICAL JET.

[1.] Aizenberg, J. [Chemist quoted], & Cook, G. [Interviewer] (2012). [". . . There is the brittle star, which is a close relative of the starfish and sea urchin. It has a hard coating, and people assumed it was blind. But we found that part of its skeleton is coated with lenses - it can see through its shell. During the day it uses a dark pigment on the lenses to limit the light, and then at night it draws the pigment back into its body. It's like the brittle star is using sunglasses, and the lenses are better than we can make."]. The brittle star's apprentice. Scientific American, 306 (2), 64-67.
[2.] Aizenberg, J. [Chemist quoted], & Cook, G. [Interviewer] (2012). ["[The deep-sea sponge] lives on the ocean floor, and it grows itself a skeleton made of glass . . . Then, at the sponges base, where it is attached to the ocean floor, it has a crown of thin strands that behave like nearly perfect optical fibers, which guide light from one end to the other . . . Bioluminescent bacteria live on the sponge, and their light shines through the fibers."]. The brittle star's apprentice. Scientific American, 306 (2), 64-67.

INT. HONEYBEE HIVE - GROUND - DAY
(JAXON, MATT, CLARISSA, SAMANTHA)
ONE FINE MORNING WE FIND OURSELVES AT HONEYBEE HIVE RECEPTION. THE COMPUTERS ARE OFF, BRIAN'S SOMEWHERE ON A LEVEL BELOW, AND JAXON - A NATIVE AMERICAN SPIRITUAL ADVISOR - IS STANDING BEHIND A PLAIN WHITE DESK LIKE ONE YOU MIGHT FIND AT A NICE NIGHTCLUB. MATT IS SITTING ON A CHAIR, SAMANTHA AND CLARISSA ON A LOUNGE OPPOSITE. CLARISSA'S HANDS ARE WRAPPED AROUND MATT'S RIGHT HAND LIKE A LARGE, WARM RING, WHILE EMILY'S FINGERS ENCLOSE HIS LEFT. HE'S SMILING AND HIS PUPILS DART FROM LEFT TO RIGHT AS HE SPEAKS.
JAXON
What first attracted you to this part of Utah?
MATT
Everything. The atmosphere, the scenery, the cheery disposition of Samantha and Clarissa, how it smells, the way I feel, how it looks, how it tastes, the sights, the sounds. I just feel a connection, you know? A deep connection to all the people here, even those I haven't met yet. Spiritual almost.
JAXON
We call this place many different things, though it is most commonly referred to as the Honeybee Hive. Many who have never been here have their own names for it, some of which we consider derogatory. And for this reason we do not usually mention where we come from to those in Salt Lake and beyond.
CLARISSA
Have you heard the term "Juniper Creek"?
MATT
Yeah. That was a place in that show; Big Love [1.].
CLARISSA
A fictional place, of course, perhaps based on a place in Utah called Hildale. And sometimes this hive gets the label "Juniper". But you can clearly see that's inaccurate. This isn't a prison by any means. Nor does it resemble a North
