TWO FATES

Written by: Lori Lee Peters, Kelsey Ann Wacker

Number of Pages: 109 Pages 

Country of Origin: United States

Synopsis

TWO FATES

Based on an Award Winning Memoir by Lori Lee Peters

Feature PG-13
True Psychological Drama
1970’s Lodi, California

Comps- LadyBird meets GoodFellas

Logline- In 1970s California, the young daughter of a Cadillac dealer faces a deadly prophecy as her father gambles everything to topple a Mafia boss.

Synopsis– Lou Peters, (45), a top-rated Cadillac dealer in California. His success catches the attention of Mafia boss Joe Bonanno Sr., 70’s, and offers Lou two million—double the dealership’s worth—along with a six-figure salary and bonuses for each new dealership he acquires. The goal? A California money-laundering operation. Lou, with a past in intelligence, buys time to contact authorities. After meeting Special Agent Bob Anderson, (34), he volunteers to work undercover for the FBI. As the Mafia’s pressure escalates, Lou insists on a legal separation from his family to protect them. The FBI sets him up in an undercover apartment complex, with Bob living directly above him.

For Lori, (13), her father’s sudden absence is devastating. She shares a deep bond with him—her protector. That bond becomes even more critical after Lori’s best friends introduced her to The End of Days prophecy, ending with, God will ask everyone only once- “Are you coming to Heaven or staying on Earth?” Raised without religion, Lori is thrown into existential terror. Her brain vibrates from the shock, and every morning she wakes in panic, wondering, Is today the day I die?

Despite his dangerous mission, Lou arranges visits with Lori, sensing something is wrong. These meetings become lifelines—for her, a tether to safety; for him, a momentary escape from the pressure. Between the stress of the operation, and idle time, Lou finds levity in pranking Bob and sharing the occasional drink. But as the investigation drags on, Lou faces multiple close calls, relying on quick thinking and Bob’s whispered earpiece guidance to avoid exposure.

Meanwhile, Lori begins to unravel. As time passes without her father, her fears consume her, warping her sense of reality. The world starts to feel fake, like a movie set. She turns to alcohol, sex, and drugs—anything to numb the fear. Then, during her freshman year, her boyfriend invites her over. Instead of the safety she longs for, she’s ambushed by his brother and raped. The assault—the brothers orchestrated setup—deepens her spiral, trapping her in shame and self-destruction. More than anything, she wants to ask her dad, Is God coming soon? But she doesn’t. If Lou, her hero, confirms what she dreads most, she’s certain her mind will shatter.

Lou’s Last Chance: The Subpoena
Lou calls Bonanno Sr. for advice after being served with a subpoena. Careful not to illegally entrap Bonanno Sr., he maneuvers the conversation skillfully. Then, after a few exchanges, Bonanno gives the order: “Take out the records and destroy them.” Bob and Lou explode with elation— They got him!

1979: The Trial
Lou testifies for four grueling days.

1980: The Verdict
The judge delivers the word— Guilty.

Lou won the battle, but not the war. After returning home, he’s diagnosed with terminal brain cancer. As treatments drain him, Lori stays by his side, just as he had comforted her on the nights she shook from fear. They reminisce, laugh, and he offers her life advice until sleep overtakes him.

1981 – Within a year of the guilty verdict, Lou dies of a Glioblastoma brain tumor, while Lori held vigil. After the funeral came years of struggle for Lori crushed by grief, fear, trauma, and silence. At her lowest, too terrified to live yet too afraid to die, something shifts. It’s as if Lou cleared a path through her anguish —guiding her to find her purpose. In that moment Lori made her dad a promise she was destined to complete.

Years later, she places a book on his grave…

The Kings Chair, Summer of 83

Written by: Michael Losonczy

Number of Pages: 85 Pages

Country of Origin: United States

Synopsis

In the summer of 1983, a group of kids discover something ancient hidden in the woods near their town. As threats rise against the land they love, they’re drawn into a mysterious adventure that tests their friendship, courage, and belief in something bigger than themselves

Writer Biography

Michael L. Dennis is a screenwriter and novelist whose work blends heartfelt character arcs with rich mythology and cinematic wonder. His writing explores the emotional power of memory, legacy, and place—often through the eyes of kids at the edge of discovery.
Michael is the author of The King’s Chair: Summer of ’83, the novel that inspired this screenplay. He draws from real places and personal childhood experiences to craft emotionally grounded stories infused with imagination and mystery.
He is currently seeking development partners, literary representation, and production collaborators.

Writer Statement

The King’s Chair is rooted in my own memories of growing up in this very small town of Lake Hiawatha, NJ in the early 1980s, where the woods were our kingdom, and imagination was a form of survival. I wanted to tell a story that captures the magic of being young—the way a stick can become a sword, a tree can feel sacred, and friendship can be the most powerful force in the world.

This screenplay is more than just nostalgia; it’s about honoring the land, reckoning with history, and listening to the stories that came before us. Through a lens of adventure and fantasy, I explore the ways we protect what we love—especially when no one else will.

As a writer, I’m drawn to stories where ordinary kids are called to do extraordinary things—not because they’re superheroes, but because they care deeply, believe fiercely, and refuse to back down. The King’s Chair is my love letter to those kids—and to the sacred, wild spaces that shape us.
