Obviously this is not some lost Wicked Science script from the vaults but a piece of fanfiction. It's just an idea I had about how to continue the story after the conclusion of Season 2, not for an entire season, but for a single extended episode. I initially tried writing prose fiction but it didn't work out very well. I found this approach more natural and easier to write (makes sense since it's closer to the format of the real show). I have no experience of writing screenplays, so I just made it up as I went along based on my rather vague idea of what a script would look like.
The Conscience Chip
(Scene: We see first the clock tower of Sandy Bay High School, then the inside of a conspicuously battered car parked in the school car park. DINA is sitting in the passenger seat. She is tanned, has a cooler hairstyle than when we last saw her and is wearing some kind of alternative outfit. At the wheel of the car is RAUL, a dark haired, athletic, vaguely bohemian man in his 20s, tight black t-shirt, tattoos, etc.)
DINA: Thanks for the lift. (She reaches across and kisses him on the lips.)
RAUL: No problem. Nervous?
DINA (looking out of the window up at the school): No… why would I be? It's just a bit weird being back here after a whole year away.
RAUL: You know I still can't believe you're actually at school.
DINA: Oh I don't know about that. (She kisses him on the cheek.) I'm just going to have to get used to being back here.
RAUL: Yeah, but you'll get to see your friends again. Toby and Russ, that's what you said their names are, wasn't it?
DINA: Yeah, that's right. Well remembered.
RAUL: Well, I have an ulterior motive. When you tell me your best friends are a couple of guys, I don't forget a piece of information like that. They might be competition.
DINA: Competition? No, no. It's not like that, we're just friends. Maybe I did have a little thing for Toby at some point, but that's ancient history.
RAUL: Sure?
DINA: Sure. Trust me.
RAUL: And what about Russ?
DINA: Russ? No way.
RAUL: Why not?
DINA: You'll see when you meet him. Definitely not my type.
RAUL: But Toby was your type?
DINA: Toby? No, he's not my type either. But he's special.
RAUL: Now you've really got me worried.
DINA: Raul, you've really got nothing to worry about. Toby's an interesting guy, and yes, he is a bit special. But I have totally moved on from dating high school guys. (She kisses RAUL on the mouth again, this time for a bit longer.)
RAUL: Glad to hear it. Still, I'm looking forward to meeting them.
DINA: You will soon. (glances at watch) I'd better go.
RAUL: Sure.
(DINA gets out of the car. RAUL winds down the window. DINA turns to face him.)
DINA: What are you doing tonight?
RAUL: Nothing. I'll be at home. Want to come round? Eva will be there, unless I can find a way of getting rid of her.
DINA: Oh don't do that. You know how much I like her. I like hanging out with the two of you. I think it's sweet how you live with your sister.
RAUL: Thanks, she likes you too.
DINA: Yeah?
RAUL: Yeah. She told me.
DINA: I'm glad. Call me later?
RAUL: Definitely.
(DINA walks away from the car and heads towards the entrance to the High School. She sees RUSS hanging about on his own, a little way ahead of her.)
DINA: Russ! Hey Russ!
(RUSS turns, smiles and waves at DINA, who quickly catches him up. She gives him a big hug, which he returns slightly awkwardly.)
DINA: Great to see you!
RUSS: Great to see you too! Wow, you look way different.
DINA (pouting slightly): In a good way or a bad way?
RUSS: In a good way, definitely. You've… grown up a lot.
DINA: You're the second person to tell me that today. Maybe it's true. (Glancing around her) So where's Toby?
RUSS (awkward): Toby? Oh, he'll be along. I was just waiting for Sasha actually.
DINA: Sasha? Toby's cousin? I remember him mentioning that she'd moved here. Is she nice?
RUSS: Oh yeah. She fitted right in. We've been hanging out loads.
DINA (slightly suspicious): You boys didn't replace me, did you?
RUSS: Replace you? Oh no. You'll like Sasha. Definitely. So how was your year anyway?
DINA: Amazing. I've been to so many places, met so many amazing people. It's really worth it, if you get the chance.
RUSS: Humph… Not likely I'm afraid.
DINA (gushing): And… I met this amazing guy in Hong Kong. His name's Raul. He's Australian, but he was out in Hong Kong working for an NGO. He's really smart and totally chilled. And very well-read. He could even give Toby a run for his money on the smartness front.
RUSS: Uh… Great!
DINA: (still gushing) And you know what the best bit is? He just moved back here! He moved in with his sister, who's renting a place right here in Sandy Bay! She's totally cool too – works for an NGO campaigning against coastal pollution. We'll all be able to hang out loads.
RUSS (awkward): Right.
DINA: So what happened round here last year? Toby was a bit remiss on keeping me up to date.
RUSS: Oh, heaps.
DINA: I see they got rid of the doll.
RUSS: The doll? Oh yeah, the doll. Yeah, long gone. Garth shrunk it the first day of term last year.
DINA: Garth shrunk it? What, with Elizabeth's shrink ray?
RUSS: Yeah, that's right.
DINA (suspicious): Don't tell me Elizabeth's a genius again?
RUSS (apologetically): Yeah, she is.
DINA: And what about Toby?
RUSS: Yeah, he had to re-genius himself to turn me and Sasha back into humans.
DINA (more and more concerned): Humans? What from?
RUSS (deadpan): Flies.
DINA (by now outraged): Flies?! Let me guess, Elizabeth turned you into flies.
RUSS: Uh… yeah. But to be fair to her she wasn't exactly intending to turn us into flies.
DINA: What was she intending to turn you into? Rats?
RUSS: Oh no, she was just going to turn Toby into a fly if he broke into her secret lab.
DINA: That's enough already! So last year it was all just the same. I can't believe Elizabeth has the nerve to show her face round here.
RUSS: Oh, you'd be surprised.
DINA: So Toby was busy all year fighting Elizabeth?
RUSS: More or less.
DINA: But he defeated her, right?
RUSS: In a way, I suppose you could say so.
DINA (slightly aggrieved): Toby didn't tell me any of this.
RUSS: Oh, he probably didn't want to worry you. With you being so far away, you wouldn't have been able to do much. Anyway, it was a bit more complicated than that.
DINA: More complicated? (Conversation interrupted by arrival of SASHA).
SASHA: Hi Russ! (gives him a friendly little shove)
RUSS: Sasha! This is Dina Demiris!
SASHA (shaking DINA's hand): Hi! Great to finally meet you! I've heard all about you!
DINA (slightly jealous): Good to meet you too! You're staying at Toby's place, right?
SASHA: Yeah, that's right.
DINA: You didn't come to school together then?
SASHA (looks awkwardly at RUSS): Err… no.
DINA: I'm beginning to wonder if he's even coming.
SASHA: Oh he'll be here. We'll see him in class.
DINA: Oh. Ok.
RUSS (to SASHA): Dina was just talking about her new boyfriend.
SASHA: Oh really? (to DINA) Do tell!
(DINA begins to repeat her account of RAUL as the three of them go inside the school building).
