INT. BELIAL'S OFFICE - NIGHT

Mina sits at Robert's desk and types on the computer. Thom
and Vlad stand around Mina.

MINA
Robert was acting strange, so I
looked around and found this.

The computer screen shows a spreadsheet.

One line is highlighted - "G-Blood storage. Moved 5,
remaining 0."

VLAD
All of it...

Vlad leans back and takes a deep breath.

Thom gives Vlad a confused look.

MINA
This is Grigorov's blood, storage
which has been kept for decades.

THOM
But why would he need his own
blood.



INT. WAREHOUSE - OFFICE - DAY

Several vampires stab syringes filled with red fluid into the
necks of tied-up 7.59s.

The tied-up people shudder and their eyes become glazed over.



INT. BELIAL'S OFFICE - MOMENTS LATER

Mina seated, Thom and Vlad standing as before.

THOM
Oh my god.

Vlad and Mina look at the ground.

MINA
I also overheard Robert ordering
his men to move to a location on
Figueroa. Is that a rescue?

VLAD
That is nowhere near where they are
holding our son.

THOM
No, but it is near something else.



EXT. STAPLES CENTER - DAY

The Staples Center is in the background. A street sign in
the foreground reads, "Figueroa."



INT. BELIAL'S OFFICE - NIGHT

Mina seated, Vlad and Thom standing as before.

THOM
How many people can Grigorov
control with that much blood.

VLAD
I don't know. Thousands, maybe.
But what about my son?

THOM
If he's like what we studied in
school, he'll let him die as a
martyr.

Vlad and Mina look shocked.

VLAD
Is this true, Robert?

Robert emerges from the shadows. Thom takes a defensive
posture.

ROBERT
Excellent observation, Vladimir.

VLAD
How long have you known about this?

ROBERT
I am the Belial, I know everything,

Vlad walks toward Robert.

VLAD
You would put my son at risk for
your gains.

ROBERT
I would put any one at risk for the
good of vampires. But this venture
is Grigorov's, he has his own
autonomy as Beaozaer.

Vlad paces.

VLAD
So where is Grigorov.

ROBERT
That I am not at liberty to say.
As I said, he possesses his own
autonomy.

Vlad looks back to Mina. Mina seems nervous.

VLAD
Then I submit my challenge for his
authority.
