EXT. CITY STREET - DAY
As they leave the council member’s office, the city feels different. The sky is overcast, and there’s a palpable sense of tension in the air. Lila’s MOM checks her device, her face growing more worried.
Lila's Mother
There’s something you need to know. After I left the facility last night, I ran a deeper scan of the data. The explosion wasn’t just an accident.
LiLa
What do you mean?
Lila's Mother
There were alterations made to the tech… deliberately. Someone tampered with the device to cause the malfunction.
Max
(shocked)
Are you saying this was sabotage?
Lila's Mother
(gravely)
I’m saying someone wanted this explosion to happen. And they might not be done.
INT. LILA’S APARTMENT - NIGHT
Back in the apartment, Lila sits at her desk, deep in thought. The data they uncovered now feels more urgent, more dangerous. Max sits across from her, nervously tapping his fingers.
Max
So what do we do now? If someone’s behind this, they’re not going to let us keep digging.
LiLa
We need to find out who sabotaged the device. If we can expose them, we’ll have everything we need.
Lila's Mother
There’s one more place we can look. The archives. They keep records of all the experiments, including access logs. If we can get in there, we might be able to see who’s been messing with the tech.
