Izzi : This is an actual Mayan book. It explains the Creation myth. You see that's first father. He's the very first human. Tom Creo : Hum. Is he dead? Izzi : He sacrificed himself to make the world. [pause] Izzi : That's the tree of life bursting out of his stomach. Tom Creo : Hey come. Izzi : Listen. His body became the trees' roots. They spread and formed the earth. His soul became the branches rising up forming the sky. All the remained is first father's head. His children hung in in the heavens creating Xibalba. Tom Creo : Xibalba. The star, eh, [corrects himself] Tom Creo : nebula Izzi : So what do you think? Tom Creo : About? Izzi : That idea. Death as an act of creation. Tom Creo : [looks away, withdrawing] I'll pull out the car and meet you out front.
