INT. CENTRAL CITY – CONVENIENCE STORE – EVENING
120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEoNr0ZnwsP
[The convenience store is a clean, fluorescent-lit space nestled in the heart of the marketplace. A conveyor belt of packaged machine oils, canned nano-pastes, small batteries, and semi-questionable snacks line the shelves. Jason leads the way, pushing a hover-basket that occasionally tries to drift off like it wants to escape.]

JASON
"Alright, grab whatever doesn’t try to eat you first. But we’re on a budget, so no ‘luxury-refined turbine oils,’ got it?”
120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0xgZFoqe9b
SD-A (squinting at a can)
“...This one says ‘partially organic.’ Is that good or bad?”
120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtpLkmA0Eit
JASON (takes the can and squints at it too)
“Depends. If it moos when you open it, toss it.”
120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3saFwijK83
[SD-K grabs a six-pack of high-voltage microcells and a suspiciously bright-blue can labeled “THUNDER MUNCH!” Jason eyes him.]
120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOIDjZX7nQb
JASON
“You’re gonna short your entire system with that thing.”
120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb9DkYIHheH
SD-K (flat)
“Perfect.”
120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY29mj3iZcX
[They check out. The cashier bot doesn’t say a word, just slowly scans the items with the look of someone who once lost a family member to poor social interaction.]

EXT. BANK – SHORTLY AFTER
120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG7W4nJ6BI5
[The bank looms over the street like a polished financial tomb. Its signage flickers just a bit, as if powered by debt. Inside, a line of various bots shuffle forward, most of them Labor and Operator bots with respectable chassis and posture. Jason’s slightly scorched armor earns him looks.]
120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBNNL9dS9EX
[They reach the front desk—a pristine, silver-plated Operator bot with a head shaped like a judge’s gavel. Its eyes dim in disdain as Jason steps forward.]
120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrjMP86EsGE
FRONT DESK BOT (icy)
“Purpose of visit?”
120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡngaJ5UtNAH
JASON
“Withdrawal. Just a little.”
120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF8t5kllaz2
FRONT DESK BOT
“Hm. Security Class 5. Powerline Account.” (pulls up data)
“Current balance: 1,205 cred-cores. Request?”
120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcd2x403Hhm
JASON (trying to sound casual)
“Gimme 300.”
120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKZFoGlOBS0
FRONT DESK BOT
“For food and batteries again?”
120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKFv0WkOtWy
JASON (deadpan)
“No, I’m starting a hedge fund. Yes, food.”
120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6xpYLrR81H
FRONT DESK BOT
“Hmph. Would recommend better financial discipline. Perhaps fewer discretionary explosions.”
120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIx7KVYCT3W
[Jason forces a grin, grabbing the cred chip.]
120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuwFJqBck2m
JASON
“I’ll put that on my inspirational wall. Right next to ‘Don’t Die Monday.’”
120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRVyKwirZSC
[SD-A and SD-K wait by the exit, looking uncomfortably out of place. A few Labor bots walking in toss cautious glances at them.]
120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqfC99sqEjR
SD-K (low voice)
“They’re looking at us like we’re radioactive.”
120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9qWPIvjGTg
SD-A
“To be fair, you probably are.”
120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVgLELHx8V4
[Jason returns, waving the cred chip.]
120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgaAdcM0f4e
JASON
“Alright, let’s pay for our legally dubious dinner and bail before I get judged into poverty.”
120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡANDc48DB4Y

EXT. MARKETPLACE – EXIT – MOMENTS LATER
120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQOiXlg1utn
[They step outside into the cooling night air. Street lights flicker on, buzzing like old thoughts. Jason stretches and yawns.]
120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzcEBEC9BeW
JASON
“Marketplace complete. Wallet emptied. Dignity surgically removed. We’re making real progress, boys.”
120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcU7eYM7AZA
[SD-K groans. SD-A quietly enjoys the can of oil like it’s some sort of vintage wine. Behind them, the city hums along like it doesn’t care.]
