Kaji: Be Royal

  1. FADE IN.


  2. Act 1


  3. EXT. SUNG WONG TOI - DAY


  4. Sunny. Pet garden. KAJI, the PACK LEADER and PETER enter.


  5. KAJI (V.O.): We haven't been here for months.


  6. STRANGER#1 comes close to welcome them.


  7. KAJI (V.O.) (Cont'd): I enter with a happy heart, but I've urgent things to do.


  8. Inspecting the garden, Kaji runs past STRANGERS#2 & #3 and MASTERS#1 & #2.


  9. KAJI (V.O.) (Cont'd): There is neither grass nor sand here.


  10. Pausing.


  11. KAJI (V.O.) (Cont'd): In a distance, there's a rectangular block.


  12. Pausing.


  13. KAJI (V.O.) (Cont'd): I'll check that out later. First things first.


  14. Act 2


  15. EXT. SUNG WONG TOI - CONTINUOUS


  16. Having checked spots, Kaji stays in a corner.


  17. KAJI (V.O.) (Cont'd): I don't want to follow in others' footsteps or I may step in their poops.


  18. Hesitating.


  19. KAJI (V.O.) (Cont'd): I'm very exposed. But there's no better spot here.


  20. Kaji begins to poop.


  21. KAJI (V.O.)(Cont'd): I eat like a bird, but I poop like Peter.


  22. Again.


  23. KAJI (V.O.)(Cont'd): But I seldom poop with music.


  24. Again.


  25. KAJI (V.O.)(Cont'd): Silence is golden.


  26. Leaving the mess to the Pack Leader to follow up, Kaji begins to engage with STRANGERS#2 & #3.


  27. KAJI (V.O.)(Cont'd): Let's get to know one another.


  28. Then, MASTER#1 comes close to Kaji, squatting to touch her head.


  29. KAJI (V.O.) (Cont'd): Let me reciprocate with a hug then.


  30. Kaji climbs up onto Master#1's lap to hug her.


  31. MASTER#1: You're so affectionate.


  32. KAJI (V.O.) (Cont'd): Just for you.


  33. Later, MASTER#2 throws a pink ball.


  34. KAJI (V.O.) (Cont'd): I'll get it.


  35. Kaji chases and guards the pink ball as Stranger#2 fetches it with his mouth.


  36. KAJI (V.O.) (Cont'd): I know the ball isn't mine. I may not like his saliva either.


  37. Having played the game a couple of times, neither Kaji nor her friends now would chase the pink ball.


  38. KAJI (V.O.) (Cont'd): The game lacks thrills actually. So I go back to being me.


  39. The Pack Leader goes to pick up the pink ball and returns it Master#2, before all the Strangers and their Masters leave.


  40. KAJI (V.O.) (Cont'd): Now, let me investigate that rectangular block.


  41. Getting close to the rectangular block, Kaji sees barriers.


  42. KAJI (V.O.) (Cont'd): Why I'm not allowed to get closer?


  43. Kaji whines.


  44. KAJI (V.O.) (Cont'd): Is it something royal?


  45. Kaji whines again.


  46. KAJI (V.O.) (Cont'd): I believe it's a stupid block!


  47. Whining again.


  48. Act 3


  49. EXT. SUNG WONG TOI - CONTINUOUS


  50. Standing at the centre, Kaji is in thoughts.


  51. KAJI (V.O.): The world here now is different from the one when we first entered.


  52. Wondering.

  53. KAJI (V.O.): Can a dog, a master, a hug and a ball change the world?


  54. Pausing.


  55. ;KAJI (V.O.) (Cont'd): Anyhow, I'll be royal in my own fashion.


  56. Kaji stands pretty for Peter to take a photo of her.


  57. KAJI (V.O.) (Cont'd): My mood is right. Let me pose like a Queen.


  58. Later, Kaji, the Pack Leader and Peter exit.


  59. FADE OUT


  60. THE END
