REFERENCE LOCK:

Do not redesign any character or prop.
0–3 SECONDS — MORNING:
Begin inside the same old room from the previous episodes.
Soft golden morning light enters through the window. The human wakes up suddenly and looks toward the window.
The window is slightly open.
The room is completely silent.
A faint scratching sound comes from outside.
3–6 SECONDS — THE DISCOVERY:
The human slowly approaches the window and looks down.
The baby dragon is sitting on the stone ledge outside.
It looks tired and slightly dirty from the previous night's flight.
Its large green eyes look directly at the human.
The dragon gives a tiny playful chirp.
6–9 SECONDS — THE GIFT:
The dragon carefully places something on the windowsill.
It is a strange glowing orange-gold gemstone, roughly the size of a human palm.
The gemstone pulses with a subtle internal light.
The human slowly reaches toward it.
The dragon watches closely.
9–12 SECONDS — SOMETHING IS WRONG:
The instant the human touches the gemstone, the engraved symbols on the ORIGINAL ANCIENT CRATE across the room suddenly begin glowing.
The camera quickly turns toward the crate.
Dust falls from its wooden surface.
The old metal lock begins vibrating by itself.
The baby dragon suddenly becomes alert.
Its wings partially open.
12–15 SECONDS — CLIFFHANGER:
The crate begins making a deep, ancient mechanical rumbling sound.
The human slowly steps toward it while still holding the glowing gemstone.
The baby dragon jumps through the window and lands beside the human.
Both human and dragon stare at the crate.
Suddenly—
THE LOCK OPENS BY ITSELF.
CUT TO BLACK immediately before the lid opens.
