Overlooking a cornfield, a WOMAN’S voice narrates the images on-screen – it’s an ultra-realistic online massive multiplayer role playing game (MMORPG) known as "Open World". ROWAN (30s) emerges from the cornfield, he’s standing in a classic American dairy farm. Controlling Rowan is EVAN FOYLE (19), his boss, MONTY (40), looms over him with WENDELL (17), who’s also watching. They’re inside a small room, a workbox, filled with future tech.
Inside a grungy rental in Indiana, FIVE DUDES (?), the BRAW (as they call themselves), loaf around their computer consoles playing Open World. In-game, they’re minotaurs – they spot Rowan outside the farm and rush to attack. He effortlessly dispatches them within seconds – he’s incredibly powerful. Wendell is impressed with the performance, Monty is concerned he may have seen too much and escorts him out. LAUREL BEREK (20) enters, she’s pissed – the dairy farm is hers to scavenge, Evan dismisses her. Monty orders the two to get back to work.
O/VARY - an office space inside a Lower Manhattan business tower, filled with computers, tech, and workboxes. GITA (35) enters, she’s on the phone inquiring about a missing person, Tina. Monty asks if she’s been found – nothing. Inside...
