INT. THE CUBE – EVENING

The door swings shut behind them with a soft clack. The trio disperses into their usual corners of chaos.

Jason tosses the medicine bag onto the kitchen shelf, sorting bottles into the half-empty cabinets with a low sigh. Across the room, A sprawls out onto the bed, nose already buried in the new book he picked at the store. K, meanwhile, grabs a scrap of paper and a black pen, sketching something that looks deeply concerning—a mass of twisted limbs and hollow eyes.

JASON (over his shoulder, muttering)
"You better not be drawing what I think you’re drawing, K."
73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjQpFs9mbY5
K (without looking up)
"No promises."

Jason rolls his eyes and heads into the bathroom, peeling off his jacket as the shower kicks on with a hiss of steam. The door clicks shut behind him.

Silence settles for a moment, until—BEEP-BEEP—Jason's texter buzzes loudly on the kitchen counter.

A glances up from his book, curious. He hops off the bed and picks up the device, the screen still glowing. A new message blinks:

> Josh Anderson:
Hey, Jason! Are you free tomorrow? Violet and I have a reunion. Can you babysit Emily for a few hours? She’s still in the pod, so it's easy. Thanks, bro!

A tilts his head, thinking.
Shrugging, he types back:

> A:
Sure!

Just as he puts the texter down, Jason’s voice echoes from inside the bathroom.
73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ6FaKDnrcZ
JASON (calling out)
"Hey, who’s texting me?"
73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ8iuGb7JtG
A (loudly, innocent)
"Josh. He’s asking if we can babysit a data pod tomorrow. I said yes. You don't mind, right?"
73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxKsiaIwin4
A beat of silence.
Then the sound of Jason’s forehead slamming against the shower wall.
73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt6mGci9PWv
JASON (muffled, pained groan)
"Why—why—would you think it's appropriate to let me—literally the worst adult in three factions—and you two homicidal maniacs babysit a kid?!"
73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ15gRpi8waD
A (cheerfully)
"Because you like kids?"
73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡipNPoyotTG
JASON (in existential agony)
"I like other people's kids when they're far away! Not when they’re in the blast radius!"
73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0qEO4I2iZq
K snickers darkly from his seat on the floor.
73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1dWuY0v4fe
K (deadpan)
"Don't worry. If the pod gets corrupted, we'll just raise it into a weapon of destruction."
73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGbXWoWRdX4
JASON (yelling from the shower)
"THAT DOESN'T HELP!"
73Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6RXE5HuVL4
A picks up his book again, smiling as if he’s already proud of their upcoming mission.
Tomorrow was definitely going to be something.

FADE OUT.
