Weeks have passed, Michael is due to begain his 3 year tour in a week. Michael is now getting last minute things done before he is due to leave. Michael and Alicia are in his bedroom finishing packing.
"We're going on a trip..we're going on a trip...hey!" Alicia sung aloud to herself. "Please leave the singing and the songwriting to me please." Michael replied. "I was just getting into the spirit gosh...no need to be rude." Alicia said rolling her eyes. "Im not being rude...your just being annoying." Michael replied. "You seem uneasy about something...whats up?" Alicia asked. "Nothing..im fine, just a little tired thats all." Michael replied trying to not look at Alicia. "Michael, look at me...no not the bed...or wall..me.", Michael looked at Alicia. "Whats wrong?" Alicia asked. "I told you nothing." Michael said. "You dont wanna do this tour do you?" Alicia asked crossing her arms. Michael stopped packing and sighed. "No..not really." Michael replied. "Well why are you doing it then?" Alicia asked. "Because...i dont want to disappoint my fans." Michael replied. "Michael you need to think of yourself more...the media and everyone in the entertainment business is running you ragged." Alicia said. "Well i cant just quit." Michael said. "I understand that, but the thing is you have a family, you have a life, your true fans will understand if you go on a break for awhile." Alicia stated. "I did have a break i havent toured since Abby was born." Michael replied. "Michael that was only a year ago, you need to take a longer break than that." Alicia replied. "So you think i should just sit on my ass and do nothing?" Michael said. "Who said just because you wanna take a break from touring means you have to sit on your ass? Duh, have you forgotten me and you own pretty much all of SNL and we are the main writers and directors of the show i mean hello! and its flimmed right here in LA so you dont have to go to the other side of the globe to make money, you can do it and spend time with family at the same time." Alicia said. "Yea i could do that but i dont love it as much as i do performing." Michael replied as he zipped up his last suitcase. "Oh come on michael really?!..do you have to be that stubborn!" Alicia said with frustration. "What? im not stubborn?! why in the hell are you calling me stubborn?" Michael shot back. "Because it looks to me as if your choosing your career over your own wife and kids!" Alicia's voice rose. "That is not true!" , "Ok well if its not true then why are you going to do this 3 year tour? hmmm?" Alicia said. Michael was silent, he couldnt think of not one thing to say. "You see...your so set on making your fans happy that you dont ever stop and think about yourself, your family or your friends. you need to stop michael because one day the high price of fame is going to force you to do something that you will regret" Alicia said. "And how do you know this?" Michael said coldly. "Do you not remember what happened to you and Diane before you guys were married? remember how mary and diane's ex boyfriend mark tried to break you guys up?" , "Yea but that wasnt all that big, the media wasnt even in that whole situtation..that much....what do that have to do with the high price fame?" Michael asked confused. "Imagine if that whole thing was blown way more out of proportion, lets say that Mary got pregnat sooner than she did, and she went to the press and claimed you were the father, the media would have eaten that load of bs as if it were a feast." Alicia stated. "I still do not understand what the hell you are trying to say." Michael said still confused. Alicia let out a frustrated sigh. "Michael basically what i am trying to say it when your big in the businiess watch your every move, because one slip up and can cost you everything." Alicia said. Michael let out a nervous laugh. "You really think something is going to happen and that im going to lose diane...thats really something." Michael chuckled as he began to make his way out of his room. "MJ im serious! its not funny im not saying this just to hear myself talk ok! im doing it because one i care about you since you're my best friend and two i hate to see you get hurt and lose everything you work so hard to get." Alicia said. "Alicia i really apperciate the fact you're looking out for me and you're a really caring friend, honestly i dont know what i would do if i didnt have you as a best friend, but you need to stop worrying so much, i would never do anything that would ever cause me to lose Diane and the girls." Michael said as he began to walk down the steps, Alicia followed. "Michael you dont know that you cant predecit the future...how do you know one day you go to some party with the crew you get drunk and bang some other girl?" Alicia protested. "Ok now your starting to sound stupid." Michael said coldly. "Fine you dont wanna listen then im leaving...im not going to argue, you always do this michael, i try and be nice and help you , but my nicest only goes so far." Alicia stormed upstairs and grabbed her things and stormed back downstairs. "Alicia wait..." Michael tired to stop her. "Save it mj... your on your own." Alicia said coldy before slamming the front door. "What was all that about?" Diane replied as she came out of the living room. "Nothing...we just had a disagreement..thats all." Michael said putting his head down. "Aw honey dont worry about it...you guys are best friends...you going to have disagreements, just give her some space..she'll come around." Diane said giving michael a quick kiss on the lips...........

Child of innocence, I miss your sunny days
We joyously frolicked in extended plays
Ever since you've left the scene
The streets are lonely, dark and mean
Child of innocence, return to me now
With your simple smile show them how
This world once again can respond to your glance
And heartbeats flutter to the rhythm of your dance
Child of innocence, your elegance, your beauty
Beckons me now beyond the call of duty
Come fly with me far and above
Over the mountains in the land of love
Child of innocence, messenger of joy
You've touched my heart without a ploy
My soul is ablaze with a flagrant fire
To change the world is my deepest desire.
We joyously frolicked in extended plays

Child of innocence, your elegance, your beauty
Beckons me now beyond the call of duty
Come fly with me far and above
Over the mountains in the land of love
Child of innocence, messenger of joy
You've touched my heart without a ploy
My soul is ablaze with a flagrant fire
To change the world is my deepest desire.
"Moonwalker" -- a collection of short films made by MJ in 1988 -- was never released theatrically in the United States ... but one L.A. movie theater is finally trying to make it happen ... for one night only.
TMZ has learned Arclight Cinemas in Hollywood is on the hunt for a film print of the 1988 cult classic ... after MJ fans flooded the A.C. Facebook page with the challenging request.
According to reports, "Moonwalker" was never theatrically released in America because of failed negotiations with U.S. movie distributors back in the day ... however the flick was eventually released in The States on VHS.
FYI -- "Moonwalker" featured a super-iconic 25-minute featurette for "Smooth Criminal" ... which included an awesome cameo by Joe Pesci.
Arclight claims they're actively searching for the print -- we'll let you know if the search succeeds.

Certain items found in the room where Michael Jackson died could help shape Dr. Conrad Murray's defense -- namely, that other docs were medicating Michael.
Sources connected with the case tell TMZ ... evidence in the room suggests certain potent drugs were "prescribed and prepared" for MJ to self-medicate.
As we first reported, Dr. Murray's team will not challenge the L.A. County Coroner's finding that Jackson died of a massive Propofol overdose. But as we told you, Murray's team will present evidence in the doc's manslaughter case that Michael awakened, then gave himself the fatal dose of Propofol when Murray left the room.
We're told Murray's team hasn't decided if it will use the evidence found in the room to implicate other doctors in Jackson's death. But we do know Murray's legal team will present evidence during the trial that the fruits of Jackson's notorious doctor shopping over two decades wore his body down.
The rep for Dr. Murray's lawyer refused comment.

You came and changed my life
You Let Me survive
I never felt like this before
It's very perfect more Than I Thought
I came to This world hopeless,helpless
you Made Me Speechless
I was alone with no friend
you came my friend
Until The end
and never looked for How Much you had to spend
when My fears came
you came and took The shame
you lifted me up In the sky
and Made me fly so high
like a butterfly
cause you're angel In My sky
you opened my heart
Through blocked walls
You Made Me See the light
through Darkness night
You were My dreams
through My fighting In nightmare
I can't explain Much
how I Feel About You
Just Let my feelings come to you
Cause I love you
yes It's true!!!!!!!!!!

Co-executor John Branca tells TMZ, the first show will open in fall of 2011 -- and will travel throughout North America including the Staples Center in L.A. ... the same venue where MJ's memorial was held.
The show will be heavily focused on dancing -- honoring the legendary moves of MJ. It will also feature Jackson's songs and have the trademark Cirque du Soleil acrobatics.
In 2012, a second show -- in partnership with MGM MIRAGE -- will open in Las Vegas which will be far more theatrical with emphasis on technology and 3D. "It will be a theme-park-like show," says Branca.
Sources say the shows will be worth a fortune to the estate. Cirque and the estate will split costs and profits 50-50.
