For the Voodoo ceremony, I thought having everyone doing the Hokey cokey
Left arm in, left arm out, in, out, in, out, shake it all about ?
You do the Voodoo cokey and you turn around , that's what
Voodoo's all about, oi !
"I've been informed that there ARE a couple of QAnon supporters who are fairly regular posters in AJB."
Act 4, Scene 4. Ye boat chase! Awaiting input from Charmed & Dangerous at this point. Am looking forward to The Sheriff of Pepper!
Act 5, Scene 1- Opens on Quarrel's boat, as he sails Sir James and Lord Felix to the right spot. Sir James leaves them and goes to rescue Solitaire....
Act 5, Scene 2. A villain's lair. Sir James & Solitaire are brought before Lord Kananga, who hast an inflated opinion of himself... maybe!
Act 5, Scene 3. Lord Felix sees Sir James & Solitaire off on a carriage... but Tee Hee awaits.
An idea for the boat chase, which obviously is geographically incorrect. Might be to have
The Crocodile farm high in the Louisiana mountains, and the chase is down hill in almost
White water conditions, hence enough speed to get kayaks across a road or do a jump ?
"I've been informed that there ARE a couple of QAnon supporters who are fairly regular posters in AJB."
TP this is magnificent, I couldn't have done better! I've just made a couple of suggestions to the ending, feel free to play around with it (ahem, the text, that is).
Sheriff of Pepper : "There's thine Son of A Batch! What the Hell art thou - some sort of Doomsday Book, boy? some sort of SiCo ? For we hath a cage strong enough to hold a varlet like you !"
Lord Felix: "Prithee sire Vassal, please explain to the Sherriff."
The Sherriff of Pepper's vassal: "My liege, Sir James is from Albion... A sort of Albion Agent..."
Sherriff of Pepper: "An Albion Agent! ... on which side? - West of Bromwich?"
The Sherriff of Pepper's vassal: "No, no, my liege, Sir James is helping out our boys..."
Sherriff of Pepper: "Tis too much for me! I must leave forthwith for fairer shores... I hear Thailand is quiet and restful..."
Me too, I much prefer doing dialogue to action scenes. You may have noticed I try to duck out of writing them as much as possible!
Have added C&D's ending to the scene above, plus the croc shoes line earlier.
We still need more for Act 5 Scene 2 (death of Kananga) but I had an idea for the ending so....
How does Kananga plan to slay Sir James & Solitaire (no, not mutated seabass with frickin' lasers)? How will he be foiled (Sir James's timepiece can't spin quickly enough to cut rope)? How will Sir James slay him (no compressed air to blow him up)?
Comments
In a little while we have a much longer chase scene coming up; any chance you could start thinking about that one...? :007)
( Only a few added ideas, please feel free to use or discard as needed )

(Feel free to change any of this, especially the shoes bit, and add an ending.)

( The reading Solitaire gives, will or should work for everyone )
Now, we're off to the crocodile farm... I think....

(Open for rewrites etc)
Something about wearing crocs being more tasteful than wearing green trainers?
We're relying on you for the boat chase, C&D, and are happily carrying on to the end! See TP's idea earlier for how to start off.
and forgive my spelling mistakes.

I find action scenes hard to do, as I think you need some dialogue, to play around with.
