DOORWAY

107Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJBFLdaIPnA

Josh holds Emily’s pod with both arms, looking hesitant to leave but clearly exhausted. Violet waves playfully, already halfway into her dramatic farewell.

VIOLET

“Next time, we’ll watch season two. It gets really existentially inappropriate!”

107Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡned9k7kLSv

A (flatly)

“Please don’t.”

107Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqCcXHFMtxq

Jason leans against the doorframe, arms crossed, amused.

107Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQmpGoilhSh

JASON

“Tell your daughter I’ll teach her how to forge pay stubs next time.”

107Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmoixo0MwtN

JOSH (panicked)

“Please don’t.”

107Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0S2zLo6kRc

Jason shuts the door with a chuckle. Silence. Calm.

INT. THE CUBE – MOMENTS LATER

107Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZJW4pyHSvg

Jason tosses himself onto the bed dramatically, bouncing a little as he lands flat on his back like a robot-shaped pancake. He lifts his newly reattached right arm and twists it around with exaggerated flair.

107Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHoMK4BwH4o

JASON

“Behold! The arm of a thousand malfunctions, reborn like a phoenix from garbage fire.”

107Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdCnGIKnGv7

A sits nearby, still staring blankly at the floor. K is in his usual corner, tail loosely curled, flipping pages in one of his books without much interest.

107Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSsZewWjqBA

A (numbly)

“Jason.”

107Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOX9yZOKgcr

JASON (still stretching)

“Yeah?”

107Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ47krQnKanW

“…I saw things.”

107Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjmpa8bhyUk

Jason lowers his arm slowly.

107Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEHj4e89nM5

JASON

“…Violet?”

107Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOQDCj53zpI

A (quietly)

“She said you can…invert polarity with joint tension and tail sync rhythm.”

107Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdCkOIJQjpu

K freezes. Jason sits up like he’s been jump-scared.

107Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjQatoes9N5

JASON

“She what.”

107Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzSLdEoeBOl

A (horrified whisper)

“She acted it out. With her hands.”

107Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡii9nZGbQKM

K softly closes his book and just whispers, “I hate this planet.”

107Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt11ydbWkH7

Jason groans, face in hands.

107Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzmo9lg0CiV

JASON

“Why does she do this to people? She weaponizes innuendos like it’s psychological warfare.”

107Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMrTk18757J

“I don’t think I will ever look at docking stations the same way again.”

107Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSnw1lZDM93

Jason flops back again.

107Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0dWinPcS70

JASON

“Okay. Mental reset. We’re gonna do something fun and harmless today. No babies. No trauma. No Violet.”

107Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyaJbcN4HIO

“That rules out most of this planet.”

107Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPTbWfg5eNC

JASON

“Shut up and let me pretend we’re normal for one day.”

107Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrDofauAF2S

He stretches again, circuits clicking as the reconnected arm finally stops making weird little ticking noises.

107Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg3qsB1GblX

A looks at him and nods slowly.

107Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUOLtlqyCz3

“…Movie?”

107Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqrWo3IB6xb

“Not romance.”

107Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsn4RVf8ngX

JASON

“Fine. How about a documentary on ancient murder bots?”

107Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNxYYrzcSK9

“…Wait, is that actually a thing?”

107Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMdIoYbDXVx

JASON

“It is now.”

107Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgpxjsm2Bgl

The three of them settle into their awkward, strange, very-not-normal peace.

Fade out.
