BLACK.

JOY (V.O.)

Do you ever look at someone and wonder, ā€œWhat is going on inside their head?ā€ Well, I know. I know Rileyā€™s head.

WHITE. FADE IN...

INT. HOSPITAL - DAY

A newborn baby swaddled in a blanket, held by her parents.

Push in... and ZOOM IN TO HER HEAD.

INT. HEADQUARTERS

Out of the blackness steps a glowing figure. This is JOY. The room is black except for a bright CONSCIOUSNESS SCREEN.

JOY

Hmm?

In front of Joy is a single large BUTTON. She pushes it.

INT. HOSPITAL - CONTINUOUS

The baby gurgles and wiggles happily.

JOY (V.O.)

And there she was...

INT. HEADQUARTERS - CONTINUOUS

ON THE CONSCIOUSNESS SCREEN:

MOM

Hello, Riley.

DAD

Oh look at you. Arenā€™t you a little bundle of joy?

A GOLDEN GLOWING SPHERE rolls from behind the screen. Itā€™s a MEMORY of what we just saw: Mom and Dad cooing at Riley.

To be continued...open in new window.
