OPEN on John’s neighborhood as a red glow descends. Birds flee. JOHN EGBERT rushes onto
his balcony, flies to the railing, and looks into the sky.

ROSE (VO):​ S​ ince you’re reading this...chances are you started playing a game
called Sburb.

Reflected in John’s glasses, see a METEOR bearing down on Earth. Cut to black...

Mausoleum, through a raging storm. DAVE STRIDER watches BRO approach. JADE HARLEY

MAYOR bands together with PM and AR atop the dune of an apocalyptic wasteland. CALLIE

a space battleship as MOM and DAD hold hands. Heading to SKAIA. The screen goes dark.
