(Scene opens with a bustling city. People are going about their day, oblivious to what’s about to unfold. The camera pans to giant screens on skyscrapers and TVs in shop windows, all suddenly flickering and switching to a single image: a teenage girl sitting calmly in a studio.) Rhea (calmly, looking directly into the camera): “My name is Rhea, and I have taken control of this broadcast to send a message.” (She pauses, her gaze steady and voice unwavering.) Rhea: “I need to speak with the President of the United States. Alongside him, I request the presence of impartial judges to mediate our conversation. This is not a threat. No one needs to be hurt. But until my request is fulfilled, this channel, and many others, will remain under my control.” (Cut to various reactions: office workers staring at their screens in shock, a family frozen mid-breakfast, and social media exploding with hashtags like #WhoIsRhea and #TVTakeover.) News Anchor (on a rival station, clearly flustered): “Ladies and gentlemen, we are experiencing what appears to be an unprecedented cyberattack. A young woman—her identity unknown—has hijacked multiple networks nationwide.” (In the FBI command center, agents scramble.) Agent 1: “How is she doing this? We’ve tried every override protocol, and nothing’s working.” Agent 2: “She’s not just in the system; she is the system right now. This is miles ahead of anything we’ve seen.” (Back to Rhea’s broadcast. She repeats her words with deliberate calm.) Rhea: “I need to find my mother.” (Cut to the President’s war room. Advisors debate furiously.) Advisor 1: “She’s just a kid. This has to be a prank.” Advisor 2: “A prank doesn’t hijack national broadcasts. We can’t risk ignoring her.” President (after a long pause): “What does she really want? And how far is she willing to go to get it?” (Meanwhile, the city is paralyzed. In the streets, people gather around screens, their faces a mix of fear, confusion, and curiosity. Back in the studio, Rhea sits silently, her expression unreadable. She waits, knowing that the entire nation is now her audience.)
