Episode Title:
THE ‘LUST’ CONNECTION
Written by Olu Famous
The story begins…
SCENE OPENS TO INT. CLUB - NIGHT
Afrobeat music thumps in the background.
Lights: Neon blues, purples, strobes.
CAMERA SWEEPS THROUGH THE CROWD — dancers, laughter, popping bottles.
FOCUS ON LINDA OKORO
Linda, early 30s, brown-skinned, stylish, poised. She sits at the bar, alone but calm.
CAMERA slowly tracks her from her heels up, highlighting her sleek white dress.
She sips a cocktail and looks around subtly.
DERICO ENTERS
Late 30s, charismatic, sleek in a designer dark-brown outfit. He enters with two goons.
SLOW-MO entrance. Eyes lock between Derico and Linda.
INT. CLUB BAR - MOMENTS LATER
He walks up to her, confidently.
DERICO
(smiling)
You look like trouble... but the kind I’d risk my peace for.
LINDA
(smirks)
You don’t look like peace either.
CAMERA circles them slowly as the chemistry builds.
They laugh. Derico buys her a drink. They clink glasses.
TRANSITION TO EXT. CLUB PARKING LOT - (HOURS LATER)
They walk to her car. Derico slips a card into her hand.
DERICO
Call me tomorrow. No pressure. I just think... this could be something.
She smiles slightly. He walks away.
INT. LINDA’S BEDROOM - DAWN
She lies in bed, staring at the ceiling. The card sits on the dresser.
Linda picks up her phone, hesitates.
🎞️ MONTAGE: PRAYERS
- INT. MRS. OKORO'S ROOM: She is praying fervently in silence.
- CAMERA CLOSE-UP on her weeping in prayer, Bible beside her. Soft piano music plays.
- CUT TO INT. PASTOR OLU’S OFFICE: Pastor Olu on his knees in prayer. Candlelit atmosphere. Soft piano music plays.
CAMERA MONTAGE dissolves slowly between each person, ambient worship in background.
INT. LINDA’S ROOM - MORNING
Birds chirp. She wakes up. Takes the card. Begins to dial Derico’s number…
FADE OUT
SCENE OPENS TO INT. RESTAURANT - DAY
Linda meets Derico at a private table. He’s charming, focused. They bond quickly.
CAMERA POV: Medium shots, warm lighting. Busy but calm environment.
DERICO
So you’re into hair products and skin therapy, yeah?
LINDA
Yeah, trying to open my own spa soon.
DERICO
I like that. I invest in people who know what they want.
He pulls out a wad of dollar-cash from his suit's inner pocket and drops it subtly on the table.
LINDA
(pretends to be shocked)
What’s this?
DERICO
Well, let's call it ‘Seed capital’ for your proposed business. No strings attached, at least for now.
CAMERA tight on Linda’s hand as she touches the money hesitantly.
INT. LINDA’S APARTMENT - NIGHT
She stares at the cash. Conflict evident on her face.
Her phone buzzes. It’s a text message from Derico: "Had a great time today. Looking forward to our next meeting..."
INT. DERICO’S APARTMENT - SAME NIGHT
He’s with his gang. Maps, charms, phones, and a red box on the table.
GANG MEMBER
She fit be one of those omo sarey wa gba. Wetin make you trust that Linda girl like that?
DERICO
I think she’s smart. Different. But she needs something. And that which she needs will be my hook on her neck.
CAMERA pushes in on Derico’s cold smile.
🎞️ MONTAGE: SPIRITUAL COUNTERFORCE
- MRS OKORO AT BIBLE STUDY: Highlighting scriptures on deception.
- PASTOR OLU IN PRAYER: Speaking prophetically: “Thank you Lord, I hear You... Father please pull back every soul who is connected to this Church that has been caught up or about to be entangled in hidden traps.”
Strings swell with tension and hope.
INT. MRS. OKORO'S HOUSE - EVENING
Linda visits her mom. They talk briefly.
MRS. OKORO
Linda, my daughter, Pastor Olu made some prayers during service just last week. And my spirit feels connected to those prayers. It's as if you're the one he was referencing in that vision. Please be careful because the road you take now… it will define more than just your future.
LINDA
(stands to her feet)
You and this your Pastor Olu sef… You worry too much, mama. No shaking, I will be fine.
She hugs her mother and leaves.
FADE OUT
INT. DERICO'S HOUSE - NIGHT
Linda, wearing a seductive red gown.
She knocks. Door opens. Derico exchange glances with her. She smiles and walks in…
LINDA
(acting care free)
Deri-boy, I hope you have something bold in the fridge for me to drink first?
Derico smiles as he lifts her and carries her into his bedroom…
