SCENE 7 - THE STOWAWAY REVEALED

EXT. GREAT GLEN - DAWN

The first pale rays of morning creep over the jagged Highland peaks. Frost clings to the windows of RHONA’S COTTAGE, glittering like a thousand tiny diamonds.

A soft, distant SNORING drifts from inside — deep, rumbling, and unmistakably belonging to TIM WATSON.

INT. RHONA’S COTTAGE – UPSTAIRS HALLWAY – CONTINUOUS
MARION WATSON slips out of bed, feet sinking into plush, fur-lined slippers, a Christmas gift. She wraps herself in a fluffy dressing gown that looks like it was knitted from clouds.

She glides down the hallway, serene — until she steps on a single, ancient floorboard.

CREAK.

INT. JIMMY’S ROOM – SAME MOMENT
JIMMY’S eyes snap open instantly — alert, sharp, almost electrified.
Solar Cola still hums through his veins like bottled sunlight.

He scrambles to the window and taps his watch.

JIMMY (whispering) 
How was the night, Maximus?

His watch vibrates.

ANTHONY (V.O., polite, metallic) 
Impervious to the Highland chill. Energy at forty-two percent.
I require a solar top-up, but the local star is currently obstructed by a cloud shaped like a sheep.

Jimmy grins despite himself.

INT. KITCHEN – MOMENTS LATER
RHONA MACLEOD is already up, bright-eyed, stirring porridge like a witch brewing something important.

Jimmy bounds in, hugging Marion as he enters.

JIMMY 
Morning, Mum! Morning, Rhona!

He turns to Rhona, trying to sound casual — and failing.

JIMMY 
So… about those grainy pictures. Anything… big?

Rhona sighs, leading him toward her lab.

RHONA 
I wish, Jimmy. But the skeptics say my pings are gas bubbles or shoals of fish.

EXT. DRIVEWAY – SAME TIME
Marion steps outside into crisp Highland air. She reaches up to the roof of MISS OCEAN, grabbing the edge of a heavy yellow tarpaulin.

MARION 
Right… come here, you stubborn thing.

She yanks the tarp back.

ON THE ROOF – CONTINUOUS
ANTHONY, hidden beneath the tarp, instantly dials his camouflage to maximum.

The tarp hangs over… nothing.
Or rather — something invisible, shimmering like a heat haze.

Marion blinks.

MARION (whispering) 
That’s not possible…

She reaches out.

CLUNK.

Her knuckles hit solid carbon-fibre.

She yelps, recoiling.

MARION 
Jimmy… Jimmy Watson!

ON THE ROOF – CONTINUOUS
Anthony realises the game is up.
He drops the cloak.

The shimmering air collapses into the sleek, blue-and-silver form of a DINOBOT.

ANTHONY (polite bow) 
Hello, Mrs Watson.
How are you today?
Your slippers appear very efficient.

Marion points at the ground like Professor McGonagall catching a student out of bed.

MARION 
Down. Now.

Then she bellows:

MARION 
JIMMY! JIMMY!

INT. RHONA’S COTTAGE – TIM’S ROOM – SAME TIME
TIM jolts awake, hair wild, dressing gown askew.

TIM 
What’s the hubbub? Is the VW okay?

He stumbles outside — sees Anthony — freezes.

TIM 
Oh cripes. He’s for it now.

EXT. DRIVEWAY – CONTINUOUS
Jimmy and Rhona rush out. Jimmy sees Marion’s face and goes pale.

JIMMY 
Sorry, Mum…

MARION (furious) 
SORRY?
Where’s the trust, Jimmy?
You smuggled a… a military-grade robot project on a family holiday!

Tim tries to look stern but fails spectacularly.

Rhona, meanwhile, looks like she’s been hit by a bolt of magical lightning.

RHONA 
Jimmy… what… who is this? Who is Anthony?

Marion jumps in.

MARION 
You know Jimmy’s robot project? The one we mentioned?

Rhona nods — then Anthony flicks his cloak off again.

Rhona performs a perfect Highland vertical jump without moving her feet.

TIM (cheering) 
Good jump, Rhona!

CLOSER – JIMMY AND ANTHONY
Jimmy steps forward, serious now.

JIMMY 
This is Anthony, Rhona.
And I know I broke the rules…
but you have to listen.

He looks at his parents.

JIMMY 
Anthony isn’t just a project.
He’s a walking sensor.
And last night… he picked up a signature in the Loch.

Tim’s General voice returns.

TIM 
Jimmy, no tall tales. Don’t use a legend to get out of trouble.

Jimmy gulps.

JIMMY 
It’s not a tale.
Anthony — please.

Anthony steps forward, eyes glowing amber.

ANTHONY 
Jimmy is on point, Mr Watson.
There is a large creature in the water.
Displacement: thirty to thirty-five tons.
Morphology: non-standard.

Tim smirks.

TIM 
Good yarn, you two. Nearly had me.

Marion softens, pulling Jimmy into a one-armed hug.

MARION 
Oh, come here, you little smuggler.

But Rhona isn’t smiling.

She’s staring at Anthony.
Then at the Loch.
Then back at Anthony.

Her mind is whirring like a Hogwarts clockwork contraption.

RHONA (breathless) 
Wait… did you say thirty tons?

Anthony turns politely.

ANTHONY 
Correct, Professor MacLeod.
Would you like to see the frequency response?
It was… a greeting.

Rhona gasps.

RHONA 
He talks!
He talks... and he has better sonar than the Royal Navy!

She grabs Jimmy by the shoulders.

RHONA 
Jimmy — bring him inside.
We have work to do!

SCENE 8 - THE LOGIC OF LEGENDS, SECRETS OF THE DEEP

INT. RHONA’S LABORATORY – DAY
The laboratory hums with a strange, enchanting energy — a blend of ancient stone walls and futuristic robotics. Copper pipes snake along the ceiling like enchanted serpents. A faint blue glow pulses from a cluster of hydrophones.

RHONA MACLEOD paces the room, hair slightly wild, eyes darting between her framed certificates and the DINOBOT perched politely on a reinforced stool.

RHONA 
(whispering, incredulous)
I’ve spent two years calibrating those hydrophones, Jimmy…
and this metallic marvel of yours makes a positive identification in less than twelve hours?
It’s enough to make a Professor take up knitting.

JIMMY WATSON sits cross-legged on the floor, adjusting his glasses with the calm confidence of someone who builds miracles in his spare time.

JIMMY 
It’s not your tech, Rhona.
Human sensors look for what humans expect.
Anthony’s different.

Rhona leans in, curiosity overpowering her shock.

RHONA 
How exactly does he work?
Is he programmed with a search algorithm?

Jimmy shrugs — casual, almost embarrassed.

JIMMY 
He’s AI. Self-learning.
He doesn’t just process data — he understands context.
He filters out the noise.

RHONA 
Meaning?

Jimmy looks up, voice softening.

JIMMY 
Meaning… I’d rather he was considered a friend.

Rhona blinks, then nods quickly.

RHONA 
Right. Your friend. Your companion.

JIMMY 
And more.
He’s family.

INT. LABORATORY DOORWAY – CONTINUOUS
MARION and TIM stand in the doorway, watching with warm amusement.

MARION 
Don’t let us stop you, Rhona.

She gives Jimmy a supportive wink — the kind that says you’re safe now; your secret’s out.

Rhona turns to Marion, still baffled.

RHONA 
How did a boy his age build something that belongs in a top‑secret research facility?

Tim chuckles, leaning against the frame.

TIM 
With a little help from us.

Jimmy shakes his head.

JIMMY 
Not a little, Dad.
I was totally supported.
Anthony wouldn’t exist without Mum and Dad giving me time to fail until I got it right.

Tim and Marion exchange a proud look.

But Tim’s military skepticism flickers.

TIM 
Well… I’m still a “believe it when I see it” man.
Are we sure this isn’t a very sophisticated glitch?

Jimmy sits up straighter.

JIMMY 
There is something out there, Dad. Honestly.

Rhona steps forward, voice firm.

RHONA 
He’s right, Tim.
I’m somewhat of an expert on the subject.

Tim glances at her wall of PhDs and Marine Biology honours.

TIM 
I can see that, Professor MacLeod.

Marion crosses her arms, smiling.

MARION 
Jimmy won’t say it, but he’s a programming genius.
And Anthony is self-aware.
If they say the signature is real, I’m betting my surfboard on it.

Rhona turns back to Jimmy, eyes bright with hope.

RHONA 
Will you help me, Jimmy?
Will you let Anthony show me what I’ve been missing?

Jimmy looks up toward the ceiling — toward the roof where Anthony had been hiding.

JIMMY 
How’s that with you, Anthony?

Anthony’s optical sensors pulse a friendly blue.

ANTHONY 
I am here for the family, as always.
And I must admit…
this “Nessie” variable is a most intriguing scientific puzzle.
I would be honored to assist, Professor.

Tim claps his hands together.

TIM 
Right then!
We’ll leave you boffins to your secret meetings.
Marion and I are taking Miss Ocean out to see the sights.

EXT. COTTAGE DRIVEWAY – MOMENTS LATER
The two‑tone blue VW KOMBI purrs to life.
Marion leans toward Tim as they pull away.

MARION 
Thank you for that, Tim.
For leaving them to it.
They’re like two peas in a pod.

Tim grins.

TIM 
Three peas, don’t you mean?

The van disappears down the lane.

THE MIDNIGHT MISSION

INT. RHONA’S LAB – AFTERNOON
The atmosphere shifts — from cosy domesticity to daring adventure.

Rhona unfurls a large, weathered map of the Loch across the table.
Anthony projects a soft blue grid over it, scanning terrain.

RHONA 
Here.
The Whispering Bay.

She points to a jagged indentation in the coastline.

RHONA 
Deep. Secluded.
Far from the tourist trails.
The legends say the creature rests there when the moon is high.
If we go at midnight, we avoid Angus Campbell and his binoculars.

Jimmy’s heart thumps with excitement.
Anthony’s sensors hum as he runs a terrain analysis.

It feels like planning an expedition to a forbidden island —
a place of ancient monsters and hidden truths.

JIMMY 
A midnight expedition…
Just us and the Dinobot.

Rhona’s eyes gleam — the look of a scientist on the brink of discovery.

RHONA 
It’s going to be a wild night, Jimmy.
Let’s get the equipment ready.

Anthony’s eyes glow brighter, like lanterns in the deep.

ANTHONY 
I shall prepare the sonar suite.
And perhaps…
a torch.

Jimmy grins.

Rhona rolls up the map with a snap.

Adventure is calling.

And the Loch is waiting.

FADE TO BLACK.
