INT. VISITOR'S QUARTERS - CAVE SYSTEM - DAY
[It's a makeshift room inside of a cave, decorated by Mayan artifacts and KELP FURNISHINGS: a couple hammocks etc. GLOWWORMS line the cave ceiling.]
"Wow," many say in awe.
[Shuri lies in a HAMMOCK unconscious. She jolts awake and peers around, clocking a TALOCANIL WARRIOR in the corner.]
[Shuri reaches for her Kimoyo bead earrings and tries to turn them on, no dice... they are too far underground. She exhales in frustration, then looks around more, seeing BUCKY, writing in a notebook, and RIRI, unconscious in another HAMMOCK.]
[Bucky looks up.]
BUCKY: Finally, you're awake.
SHURI: Where'd you get the notebook?
BUCKY: (looks down again) The Talocan girl. I scared the shit out of her, though. She must not have known I was a super soldier because she didn't expect me to be awake this early.
Many laugh, but Gabrielle and Bucky shake their heads.
SHURI: (noticing the notebook in Bucky's hands) What are you writing?
BUCKY: A will.
Steve snickers. "I'm surprised you haven't written one yet, you're so old." Bucky flips him off with both hands this time.
SHURI: (shocked) A will?!
BUCKY: I'm kidding. It's an escape plan.
Gabrielle rolls her eyes. "None of your escape plans ever work." Bucky just shrugs as the Wakandans all laugh at them.
[Suddenly, Riri wakes up panicking.]
RIRI: What happened? What's going on?
SHURI: Riri calm down, we're okay.
[Riri scans the room, and starts hyperventilating.]
SHURI (CONT'D): Breathe Riri.
RIRI: Don't tell me to breathe! Where the hell are we?
BUCKY: (deadpan) A cave.
SHURI: You're not helping!
[Bucky shrugs.]
RIRI: Oh my god. Oh my god.
[Riri goes into full panic attack mode. Looking around.]
SHURI: Don't look over there. Look at me.
[Riri clocks the TALOCANIL WARRIOR.]
RIRI: WHO IS THAT? OH GOD. WHY IS SHE BLUE?!
SHURI: Riri, close your eyes. Take deep breaths through your nose.
[Riri obliges.]
SHURI (CONT'D): Deep breaths. Nobody here is going to hurt you. I promise. Breathe deep.
RIRI: I hate caves.
"Agreed," Gabrielle mutters.
SHURI: What do you like?
RIRI: Cars.
SHURI: Okay... Think about a great car... Driving on the open road... just guzzling gasoline...
RIRI & BUCKY: You're terrible at this!
[But it's working. Riri's breathing begins to slow down.]
