INT. CENTRAL CITY – JOSH’S REPAIR SHOP – LATE AFTERNOON
66Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl6yxaExKwf
[The repair shop is dim, cluttered, and smells like hot solder and old plasma grease. Flickering neon signs buzz above rows of hanging tools and diagnostic terminals. Bits of bots—legs, arms, a suspiciously dented head—sit in bins marked with faded tape: FIX, MEH, and HA HA NO.]

[Jason leads the way in, crate in tow. A large sign at the entrance reads: “Josh’s: No Refunds, No Explosions (Anymore).”]
66Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB73nw0yGJK
[Behind the front counter, a tall Labor bot with mismatched optics and a welder’s glove permanently fused to one hand raises a lazy wave.]

JOSH ANDERSON
“Well, well. Look who’s not dead this month.”
66Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8SLQfncqCC
JASON (grinning)
“Not for lack of trying. I’m here for my regular. Also… I got a ‘guest’ who’s leaking more than an old coffee maker.”
66Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR1IiVSpfed
[Jason gestures toward SD-A, who’s doing a very poor job of pretending not to limp. SD-A offers a stiff wave, his side waist clearly damaged under the fake cloak.]
66Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSDdN2NtYed
JOSH (eyeing him suspiciously)
“Friend of yours?”
66Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0PHJy15TFj
JASON (casual)
“Tourist. Picked up a scratch near the wall. You know how sightseeing goes.”
66Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuwfmL5mqtv
JOSH (sighs, grabbing a scanner)
“Uh-huh. If this one explodes on the table, you’re paying for the ceiling this time.”
66Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNm5pjzuwSI
[Jason drops onto the diagnostics chair like he owns it. The back clamps his shoulders and a robotic arm starts scanning his body panels.]
66Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Ho122XMLq
[Meanwhile, SD-A is led to a side cot. He lowers himself slowly, trying not to wince. Josh walks over with a scanner, eyebrows raised (if he had eyebrows).]
66Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ47rnvmt0rC
JOSH (to SD-A)
“Alright, let’s see what we’re workin’ with. Don’t flinch unless you want me to hit something important.”
66Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoKaUPsDFM9
[As Josh starts examining the side waist, his expression grows just slightly confused. The metal feels different. Alive, almost.]
66Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAtadkaFlCl
JOSH
“…What model are you again?”
66Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRtyrdzz5Os
SD-A (smiling awkwardly)
“Oh, I’m a… Vision Tech prototype. Custom job. Internal structure’s weird. Marketing gimmick, you know.”
66Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpRq6dmXvYc
JOSH (grumbling as he welds)
“Damn Vision Tech always makin’ the weird ones. Last week a bot walked in with a charging port inside his foot. Who greenlights that?”
(pauses)
“This… might sting.”
66Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9YCbUE3oLo
[A spark. SD-A flinches. Josh doesn’t seem to notice too much—too focused on fixing the damaged joint.]
66Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXlbyH7gwn8
[Across the room, SD-K is wandering like a lost cat, scanning everything with silent precision. At one point, he picks up a thermal welder, flips it, clicks it once, and then gently puts it down like he just held a nuclear trigger.]
66Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0NLwN2iN64
JASON (calling out)
“K! Don’t touch stuff! Some of those are alive!”
66Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBWt1YzqOOv
JOSH (grinning as he works)
“He’s like a toddler with lasers.”
66Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEzgH5Wa90B
JASON
“He’s worse. At least toddlers don’t try to evaluate your furniture for tactical advantage.”
66Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡASLvVJPR3O
[Josh finishes welding SD-A’s side and patches the surface with a layered armor strip. It’s not pretty, but functional.]
66Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFeSQ8OTQLb
JOSH
“There. Good as new. Maybe not factory-perfect, but you’ll survive a stiff breeze.”
66Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZn7pq7aLyh
SD-A (sincerely)
“Thank you. That was… surprisingly kind.”
66Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmv8ejUFtQK
JOSH (snorting)
“Don’t get used to it. I charge double for tourists.”
66Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZw28mH0BV8
[Jason stands from the diagnostics chair and stretches like someone who pretends his body doesn’t ache.]
66Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Y4REymY8C
JASON
“Appreciate it as always, Josh.”
66Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU22333BDhF
JOSH
“You still chasing Puris?”
66Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX2LmTeGgNM
JASON (fake cheer)
“Oh yeah. Nothing says ‘fun’ like decapitating murderbots for minimum wage.”
66Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyJ2Cirgvk5
JOSH (chuckling)
“Just try not to get killed. I’ve got a bet going that you survive another five months.”
66Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvSpwsRBDfc
JASON
“I’ll try to die after you win it.”
66Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVVGZQKW7rv
[They all share a quiet, brief smile. Even SD-K seems to relax slightly.]
66Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5e17Jskl5L
[Outside, the faint chime of an old city bell rings—six cycles past midday. Time to move.]
