EXT. OPEN FIELD - DAY
Darla's bay doors open, and The Best Friends Squad steps out.
Adora now wears a sleeveless variant of her new jacket and is carrying a satchel. She's stretching in the open field.
Glimmer and Catra look around. Bow walks around the field holding his tracker pad in the air.
ADORA: This is it, I know it's been a long trip but we've finally reached our first planet!
Bow walks around while staring at his trackerpad, unknowingly walking towards a tree. Glimmer catches a glance at him.
GLIMMER: Bow!
Bow stops right before hitting the tree.
CATRA: As fun as it would have been to watch you wipe out on a tree, we need you in one piece right now.
Bow steps away from the tree.
BOW: Sorry, it's just that the distortion has gotten worse since we landed...
Bow's Trackerpad continues to display random First One's runes in a glitchy manner.
Glimmer teleports behind Bow and glances at the glitchy pad.
GLIMMER: Hey, Adora! Think you can read this?
Adora and Catra walk over, and Adora looks at the trackerpad, squinting. Catra leans against a tree.
Adora squints her eyes.
ADORA: Umm...
The runes overlap and glitch out sporadically, covering the entire screen.
ADORA: I can't make it out...
BOW: Well maybe we can find the source or something, it seems to get stronger that way...
Bow points into the woods.
Catra stands up, arms crossed.
CATRA: Guess you're leading the way.
EXT. A CLIFFSIDE - DAY
Unbeknownst to the Best Friend Squad, they are watched by the Captain through a pair of futuristic binoculars. Behind them is a smaller, angular spacecraft.
The captain looks directly at Darla, scanning the old spaceship.
CAPTAIN: Think you can ID it?
A male voice responds, THE INFORMANT.
INFORMANT: Lemme see...OH...
CAPTAIN: "Oh"?
INFORMANT: So you're not gonna believe this!
CAPTAIN: Spit it out already!
INFORMANT: You, my friend, are looking at a ghost ship. A vessel that may or may not have once belonged to She-Ra.
CAPTAIN: Wait, She-Ra was real!?
INFORMANT: Either way, I'm gonna pass this along to the King, so just sit tight, and don't act on your own!
The Captain sits cross-legged, looking down sadly.
CAPTAIN: Why does everyone keep telling me that?
CUT TO:
EXT. THE WOODS - DAY
Bow and Glimmer walk ahead of Catra and Adora through the forest. Bow is staring at his trackerpad's confusing symbols as he walks. Catra and Adora are flirting, or rather Catra is flirting.
CATRA: I'm loving the new look, by the way...
Catra touches Adora's bare arm.
Adora puts her free hand behind her head, flustered.
ADORA: Really? Thanks...I just thought, y'know...since it's kinda hot out here...maybe it'd be more comfortable...and it is.
Adora keeps walking after Bow, Glimmer, and Catra have stopped.
ADORA: But you know what, I'm glad you like i-
In a flash of light and a loud ZAP, Adora is thrown into a tree.
CATRA, GLIMMER AND BOW: Adora!!!
Adora lies flat on the ground, electricity pulsing through her body.
ADORA: Oww...
Glimmer and Catra help Adora back to her feet.
GLIMMER: Are you okay???
ADORA: Yeah...I'm fine.
The three of them look to Bow, who now stands in front of a glowing blue wall, a barrier, with First One's Runes etched in it, some of which are glowing white.
GLIMMER: Bow?
BOW: I think this is it.
Adora walks up to the barrier next to Bow.
ADORA: This is definitely First One's Tech...
BOW: I've got it!!!
Bow looks down at his trackerpad, and notices that some of the scrambled symbols are identical to the ones glowing in the barrier.
BOW: They're the same symbols...it's an encryption! So if I tap these symbols here...
Bow taps his trackerpad a few times, and a hole appears in the barrier.
CATRA: How did you...
BOW: Entrapta taught me, she thought it might come in handy. Now, c'mon! Are we gonna do this or not?!
GLIMMER: All right!!!
Bow, Glimmer, Catra and Adora walk through the barrier, and it shuts right behind them. On the other side they find-
EXT. TITUS - DAY
A highly futuristic and contemporary kingdom that not only is heavily built on Horde and First One's tech and architecture but is also full of greenery and flora. A perfect blend of technology and nature.
BOW: Whoa...
ADORA: This is...
GLIMMER: Amazing!
Suddenly, five SENTRIES, white humanoid drones vaguely resembling Horde Drones, with glowing blue accents land in front of The Best Friends Squad. Their arms transform into laser cannons aimed at Bow, Glimmer, Adora, and Catra.
SENTRIES: You are trespassing on Sovereign Land, and are now being detained by the Republic of Titus. Please do not resist.
CATRA: Really?! Again!?
