SCENES:

● Beep beep beep. A string of sound is heard until it displays the room. A room that
consists of monotonous colors, sleeping pods, and monitors.
● ROBOT wakes up (powering on) and looks around their surroundings.
● They prepare for the day (opening the clinic/hospital, preparing the pods)
● They interacted with other staffs (nurses, the doctor)
● A sequence of the robot having consultations with the patients.
● They guided a patient to their pod, helped the patient lie down.
● ROBOT checked the monitor beside the pod and saw the dream the patient is
having.
● ROBOT is mesmerized by the dream the patient was having.
● ROBOT became curious, tilting their head.
● Next day, ROBOT tried setting up the pod, testing it to themself.
● When they tried it, they saw nothing. Only darkness. (If possible, third-person
view)
● ROBOT woke up and went to the Monitoring Room.
● Checked that they have no data from the sleeping pod they slept from.
● ROBOT starts questioning why they don't have any data from the pod.
● A day-night cycle is displayed fast-forward.
● ROBOT powered on feeling disappointed from the trials and errors.
● ROBOT was given an errand by one of the nurses to throw trash.
● When ROBOT went to the trash can outside their clinic, they saw a boy near the
trash can, all dirty, scavenging food inside the trash bin.
● ROBOT saw and realized that the BOY was hungry.
● ROBOT led BOY to a bakery and gave them food.
● BOY was pleased by it and gave something to ROBOT as a token of gratitude.
● ROBOT receives something shiny but wants to give it back to the BOY.
● BOY disappeared.
● ROBOT got confused.
● Next day, ROBOT went out to throw trash and encountered the BOY again.
(Same spot).
● Ever since that fateful day, they kept meeting in that alley where trash and grime
are found.
● ROBOT taught BOY a lot of things (playing, writing, etc etc).
jawe
● One day robot sees the boy very weak to the alley. Its eyes are very tired and it
looks like the boy hasn't slept.
● The boy has a drawing in the ground of a family like portrait and in the portrait it
has the robot and the boy's family and it has a text dream.
● The robot understands the boy wants to sleep and dream so he carries the boy
back to the lab.
● And the robot pinahiga the sa pod. And proceed to input the boys dream.

● The boy slept and the screen shows the boy is happy in the dream and he sees
his family and hugs and plays with them. The robot is happy to see it. However
the screen fades to black and the monitor shows the boy's vital signals.
● The robot sees it and goes with the boy's pod and tries to wake the boy but no
response. The robot tried again but nothing happened. He remembers
something: maybe the boy had no battery and needed to be charged like them.
Then, the ROBOT noticed something within the folds of the BOY’s oversized
clothes. A socket-like imprint with trembling hands, ROBOT searched for a cable,
connected it, and plugged the BOY in. But nothing happened. The BOY
remained motionless. The monitor flashes red.beeeppppp monitor sound.
● The robot stays for how long beside the pod where the BOY is and tries to
charge the boy for somehow there was a spark of consciousness flowing to the
robot. The robot questioned itself again. If a dream can disappear forever, does
that mean dreams are more than just data?
● The robot becomes more curious. It must understand what dreaming really
means. It returns to the pods, forcing itself to sleep again and again. But every
time, nothing happens. No dream.
● The robot keeps trying. Its system overheats. Its movements slow. Its energy
drains. Finally, it collapses. As The robot power fades, something changes. The
cold walls of the facility start to melt into colors. Shapes swirl.
● The floor turns into a soft, endless field. Up ahead, the child is waiting. They are
alive. Laughing. Running through glowing lights. The robot follows, feeling
weightless. It does not understand, but it does not care. For the first time, it is not
just watching a dream, it is inside one. And at last, it understands. A dream is not
just an image. Not just data. It is a feeling. A place where the lost can be found
again.
● The robot energy reaches zero. Its body shuts down. But they’re not afraid. In its
final moments, it plays with the child, running through the endless dreamscape.
Then, darkness
● Then, darkness. Back in the facility, everything is quiet. But deep inside the
system, a new file appears. A dream, with no known origin.
