INT. JASON’S CUBE – EVENING
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOVvODxyavq
[Jason’s head pops up from under a blanket corner, observing SD-A’s fort—complete with hanging wires, glowing snack wrappers, and a flag that reads “A-ZONE: TRESPASSERS WILL BE HUGGED.”]

JASON
“…Okay. That’s actually impressive.”
(steps inside, looks around)
“You got structural support in here? Light sources? Did you program mood lighting?”
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjBHhhzXvb5
SD-A (grinning proudly)
“Call me Fort Architect A.”
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1XRUXlTRAm
SD-K (deadpan, flipping a broken spoon in one hand)
“I call it ‘evidence for Jason’s upcoming eviction.’”
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPcPUXTjc2r
JASON
“Alright, listen up, weirdos.” (claps hands)
“You’ve been cooped up all day. I’ve been tortured by spreadsheets. It’s time for—brace yourselves—outdoor activities.”
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9iWH7hZuLl
SD-K (suspicious)
“Define.”
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9sBGJTtNQ9
JASON (smiling too wide)
“Movement. Sunlight. Not melting into the furniture.”
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡho2Nb9ZeJN
SD-A
“Yay! Like a picnic?”
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUIDBu838xN
JASON
“More like ‘violently graceful jog around abandoned land.’” (leans closer to K and whispers, smugly)
“Gotta walk your dog every day.”
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcYLWCHtdKP
[He dashes away just in time as K’s retractable blade whips through the air, slicing the snack flag off the fort.]
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡReiotWIa43
SD-K (growling)
“I will literally file you into spare parts.”
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJaf5KVe43p
JASON (O.S.)
“Love you too, cupcake!”

EXT. OUTSKIRTS OF CENTRAL CITY – NIGHT – OPEN WASTELAND
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL8j2xJLfOl
[The trio stands in a vast, mostly barren terrain just outside Central City’s reinforced walls. Old vehicles rust into the dirt. Distant wind turbines creak slowly. The air hums with a peaceful quiet—a rare calm.]
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy8UaZtLaYP
JASON (stretching, servo joints clicking)
“Ah, smell that? That’s the aroma of no paperwork and no neighbors judging your choice of sleepwear.”
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrhXvBES9MR
SD-A (sniffing)
“I smell burnt cable and old data towers.”
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfSi7ptS3fG
SD-K (scanning the area)
“…Perfect place to dump a body. Is this your plan?”
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdWWfxPFQP6
JASON
“If it was, I’d bring marshmallows. Now come on, let’s see how fast you two are when you’re not trying to kill something.”
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrwqlwJO9dZ
[He takes off at a light jog. SD-A excitedly follows, doing weird cartwheels and flips like he’s trying to impress gravity. K lags behind for a second, then sighs and activates his stabilizers to catch up.]
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYjSpXHH5cD
JASON (calling back)
“Whoever reaches that busted satellite dish first wins!”
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbLfVzqA0uM
SD-A (zooming)
“GOLD AND GLORY FOR THE FORT KING!”
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7m3k9UaMBi
SD-K (grumbling)
“I can’t believe I’m exercising with my own hit list.”
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjeFI0YMe7r
[They leap over rubble, duck under collapsed scaffolding, and make an all-out sprint. Jason’s arm transforms mid-run into a grappling hook, yanking him up onto a ledge before switching back with a smug spin.]
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9dgKt46kuj
JASON
“Still got it.”
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ90sTZNe2RC
[SD-K lands beside him with an annoyed scowl. SD-A follows, slightly out of breath, but smiling so big it’s practically a flashlight beam.]
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLraFie4nvC
SD-A
“Okay, I love outside. This is fun. This is weirdly fun.”
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfSW1PwsJFI
SD-K
“...It’s disturbing how fast I’m adapting to this.”
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9CB6wYHTpI

25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB6hguYExFO
[They stand together on a high spot overlooking the far edge of Central City, neon lights twinkling in the distance. The wind howls past like an old memory.]
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkWppM9rBdV
JASON (quietly, but smiling)
“Look at us. Just three freaks playing tag in a post-apocalyptic parking lot.”
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj6maA6zYRC
SD-A
“I’d put that on a postcard.”
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4hSjl3Wv4w
SD-K
“…You’re all broken.”
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuFMyOHndSk
JASON (grinning)
“Takes one to vibe with the rest.”
