INT. THE CUBE – MOMENTS LATER
70Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhbpxBf9OIS
The cube hangs in thick, suffocating silence.
70Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7yNEJZwAfR
Josh still stands frozen in disbelief, Violet cradling Emily protectively, her expression a tight mix of "Oh shit" and "This is gonna be hilarious."
70Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMyvN4zoIRl
Josh finally speaks—his voice trembling somewhere between hysteria and absolute breakdown.
70Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6yaMmhwaTT
JOSH (unhinged chuckle)
"Jason Gearman... I need an explanation about your two 'roommates.'"
70Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrV1lLXT2TB
Jason, without a word, raises his right arm.
70Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEg8qwuYayv
His hand transforms with a smooth click-clack, a built-in grappling hook system snapping into place.
He fires it at the door.
SLAM—locks it tight.
70Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgFe9lziTgM
JASON (monotone, dead inside)
"Everyone sit down.
Nobody panic.
Nobody scream.
Definitely don't call the police."
70Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5BIlwAEbPb
He dramatically collapses onto the floor like a broken marionette, groaning into the tiles.
70Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYQDWhIM23M
Violet quietly drags Josh down into a sitting position on the couch, whispering soothing "Shhh, breathe, babe" noises while Josh looks like he's about to either pass out or become a murderer.
70Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRtOXJIrX0X
Josh points shakily at A and K, laughing in that "I’ve totally lost my mind" kind of way.
70Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOuBhj0eCfk
JOSH (cracking up)
"Are these two gentlemen, like,
(laughs louder)
FUCKING PURIFICATION BOTS!!?"
70Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgHgQm3jzbN
A awkwardly shifts his weight, cradling Emily carefully before handing her back to Violet, who accepts her a little too quickly.
70Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbdhL0Eisz6
K just crosses his arms and raises an eyebrow, clearly thinking, "This is your mess, not mine."
70Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDdIWBvuH85
Jason, still face down on the floor, lifts a single hand weakly.
70Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuuXrVH2hGY
JASON (muffled)
"Technically... yes.
But before you start throwing chairs or call Homeland Defense, lemme explain. Fast."
70Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ69aPRU1fMu
He pushes himself up, sitting cross-legged on the floor like a guilty kid at detention.
70Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdq8XO1onnI
Jason then spills the whole damn story—
From the weird Liberation aftermath, the first encounter with A and K, the chaotic living arrangement, up to now, all in one long, fast, slightly panicked ramble.
70Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRm8kvTcsrw
Josh's expression shifts from "betrayed civilian" to "glitching Windows XP error."
70Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHHbfYaoyNf
Violet?
Violet just looks thrilled.
70Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZxkl36XTuS
She grins wider with every sentence Jason spits out, sipping her coffee like this is better than any soap opera she's ever seen.
70Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDjPLi7ZjAx
As Jason finishes his desperate monologue, he looks up at them with an exhausted, pleading expression.
70Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpcoyL8XZtP
JASON (hoarse whisper)
"...And that's why I kinda, sorta, accidentally, maybe… adopted two murder machines as roommates."
70Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwsGeSFTSug
Silence again.
70Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtyrAiMICGE
Josh stares.
70Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVgvfkmuq0s
Violet takes another sip of coffee.
70Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp0Ooy9pwo4
Emily gurgles happily.
70Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc8j1JPORcT
Josh finally opens his mouth—
70Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM4M0SvQ9Dt
JOSH (dead serious)
"I am going to have a stroke."
70Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcgrBxUr8IS
CUT TO BLACK.
