Write a Screenplay Scene

Write a screenplay scene with the following details:

Genre: [drama / thriller / comedy / action / horror / romance / sci-fi]
Scene location: [INT. or EXT. — location and time of day]
Characters in the scene: [list with brief description of each]
What happened immediately before this scene: [context]
What this scene must accomplish: [advance plot / reveal character / establish relationship / create tension / other]
Emotion the audience should feel: [suspense / sympathy / unease / laughter / heartbreak / other]
Key piece of information revealed (if any): [what the audience learns]
How the scene ends: [the button — the final beat before the cut]
Tone: [naturalistic / heightened / comedic / terse]
Page target: [1 page / 2 pages / 3-5 pages]

Format requirements:
- Proper screenplay format (scene heading, action lines, character cues, dialogue)
- Action lines: present tense, visual only — what the camera sees
- Dialogue: subtext-driven — characters rarely say exactly what they mean
- No camera directions unless essential to meaning
- Economy — every line of action and every word of dialogue earns its place

After the scene:
- Identify the subtext in the key exchange of dialogue
- Suggest one way to make the scene work with no dialogue at all
- Note the scene's function in a larger story context
