The Reward (Part 1)

"Lies!"

(Scene: A Dim, Cold Cell. The air is heavy with silence. Two UNIFORMED OFFICERS enter, their footsteps echoing in the stillness.)

Officer M: Comfortable, boys? Enjoying your "restful" week in here?

Assam: We handed over the intruder! You promised us a reward!

Officer M: You brought us scrap. The humanoid was wiped clean—like an empty shell. Someone’s hiding something.

Officer Z: Who did it?

Assam: How would I know? We gave it to you as it was.

(Officer M steps forward, striking Assam hard with his baton. Assam flinches.)

Officer M: Lies!

(Boba takes a deep breath, glancing nervously at Assam, then speaks, his voice shaky.)
