  FADE IN:



  DAWN. CRASHING SURF.



The waves TOSS a BEARDED MAN onto wet sand. He lies there.
A CHILD'S SHOUT makes him LIFT his head to see: a LITTLE

BLONDE BOY crouching, back towards us, watching the tide eat

a SANDCASTLE. A LITTLE BLONDE GIRL joins the boy. The Bearded

Man tries to call them, but they RUN OFF, FACES UNSEEN. He

  COLLAPSES.



The barrel of a rifle ROLLS the Bearded Man onto his back. A

JAPANESE SECURITY GUARD looks down at him, then calls up the

beach to a colleague leaning against a JEEP. Behind them is a

cliff, and on top of that, a JAPANESE CASTLE.
  INT. ELEGANT DINING ROOM, JAPANESE CASTLE - LATER



The Security Guard waits as an ATTENDANT speaks to an ELDERLY

JAPANESE MAN sitting at the dining table, back to us.
                     ATTENDANT
