# NICE TO MEET YOU ### *(working series title — TBD)* **Episode 1 · Scene 1 — "Nice to Meet You"** **Logline —** A French developer arrives at her new sharehouse in Tokyo. A small boy at the end of the hall has been waiting for her — and he already knows her name. --- ### Characters in this scene - **LÉA MOREAU** — late 20s, French, web developer. Just landed. Still in her travel coat. - **SUZUKI-SAN** — 60s, building manager. Warm, unhurried, always seems to know a little more than she lets on. - **SORA TANAKA** — late 20s, UX designer at a startup. Easy smile, slightly distracted. - **REN** — 8 years old. Lives alone in the sharehouse. Calm beyond his years. --- ## SCRIPT *INT. SHAREHOUSE — SHIMOKITAZAWA, TOKYO — LATE AFTERNOON* A narrow entryway. Worn wooden floors, a paper screen, the city humming somewhere far away. Amber light leans across the hall. LÉA stands on the threshold. She hasn't taken off her coat. Her suitcase waits in the hallway behind her — she hasn't fully stepped inside yet. At the far end of the corridor, a CHILD sits alone on the floor, holding a cup of tea in both hands. He is watching her. Unblinking. Calm. As if he has been waiting a very long time. SUZUKI-SAN holds the front door open. **SUZUKI-SAN:** Welcome. I'm Suzuki. Please, come in. **LÉA:** *(a careful, rehearsed politeness — like someone reciting phrases learned by heart)* Nice to meet you. I'm Moreau. I'm from France. It's a pleasure to meet you. Suzuki-san steps aside. Behind her, a young man appears. **SUZUKI-SAN:** This is Sora. He's a designer at a startup. **SORA:** I'm Sora Tanaka. Nice to meet you — I look forward to getting to know you. A pause. Léa's eyes drift back down the hallway. The boy is still watching her. No smile. No discomfort. Just watching. **LÉA:** *(quietly, uncertain)* Um… that child… who is he? **SUZUKI-SAN:** *(perfectly natural, as if it's the most ordinary thing in the world)* Ah. That's Ren. The boy sets his teacup down. Slowly. Deliberately. **REN:** …I'm Ren. *(a beat — his eyes meet hers)* Nice to meet you, Léa. Léa goes still. She never said her first name. She said *"Moreau."* *CLOSE ON — Léa's face: the polite mask slipping, something cold moving underneath.* *HOLD — the boy's calm, patient eyes.* *CUT TO BLACK.* --- ## Tone & visual notes (for generation) - **Mood:** quiet, uncanny, never overtly scary. The horror is in how *ordinary* everyone treats Ren. Nobody reacts. Léa is the only one who senses something is off. - **Pacing:** slow. Long holds, soft room tone, a single distant train. Let silences sit. - **The key beat:** Léa introduces herself only as *"Moreau."* Ren answers with *"Léa."* This reveal is the whole scene — frame it clearly (the close-up + a tiny stillness) so it doesn't get lost in motion. - **Light:** late-afternoon amber, long shadows down the hallway. Ren slightly under-lit at the far end. - **Color/contrast:** Léa = outsider warmth (coat, suitcase, motion). The house = stillness. Ren sits exactly at the meeting point of the two.
