Reflexes are critical

JOHNNY
I have good reflexes.

Carmen notices the way Dizzy's looking at Johnny, doesn't
like it one bit, takes Johnny's arm.

CARMEN
C'mon Johnny, we'll be late for Biology.

9 INT BIOLOGY LAB -- DAY - THE BIOLOGY TEACHER

is an older woman, very spry, also blind. Johnny, Carmen and
other students gather around covered lab tables.

BIOLOGY TEACHER
For our final today, please identify the mouthparts,
the abdominal organs, and for extra credit, locate the
nerve cord and count the ganglia.
You may begin.

The students remove the cover to reveal large alien bugs, 60
centimeter ARKELLIAN SAND BEETLES laid out for dissection.

CARMEN
Eeuch !

JOHNNY
Aw, c'mon, it's just a bug.

BIOLOGY TEACHER
Just a bug, eh ? We humans like to think we are
Nature's finest achievement. I'm afraid it isn't
true. This Arkellian Sand Beetle is superior in many
ways. It has fewer moving parts, can reproduce itself
in vast numbers, and unboud by concerns of ego and
mortality, makes the perfect selfless member of
society.

JOHNNY
Better put your goggles on.

Johnny slices the abdomen open with asurgical laser. Green
fluid sprays from the slit. Carmen turns away looking ill.

BIOLOGY TEACHER
Our galaxy is teaming with insect life. We have
identified over two billion species so far.
Human, life, it would seem, is the anomaly.

CARMEN
But we 're intelligent. Human minds have invented
art, mathematics and interstellar travel.

BIOLOGY TEACHER
True, we know of no insect society that has
produced a Shakespeare, an Einstein or a
Cherynkov, but before you let that go to your
head, take the example of the Arachnids, a
highly organized, highly evolved insect society.
