=== Fun and Games ===
[The scene opens to Ellie and Riley in Raja's Arcade's arcade, Boston, where Ellie has just played an imaginary game of "The Turning".]
Riley: So?
Ellie: It was alright.
Riley: You loved it!
Ellie: Yeah. I kinda did.
[They both laugh. Music begins to play in the distance.]
Riley: You hear that?
[Riley heads towards a door.]
Ellie: Hey! [Riley stops.] Y’know what, we should head back. I need to head back.
Riley: You got plenty of time.
[Riley continues to the door.]
Ellie: Riley...I don't have anymore strikes left at this place. [Riley stops once more.] Tomorrow, we'll just pick up where we left off.
Riley: I can't.
Ellie: Well, we'll just do it another day then.
[Riley walks towards Ellie, shaking her head. Ellie scoffs.]
Ellie: Okay Firefly-girl, when?
Riley: They've asked me to leave.
Ellie: Leave what?
Riley: Boston. I'm supposed to join a group in another city. [Ellie glares at her.] I argued with them to stay here. But you know how Marlene is. Nothing's easy with her. Everything's a test. [Pauses.] They're picking me up tomorrow.
Ellie: Okay.
Riley: That's it?
Ellie: What do you want me to say?
Riley: I don't know. How about some friendly advice?
[Ellie scoffs.]
Riley: I'm serious.
Ellie: Why did you bring me here?
Riley: I wanted to see you.
Ellie: No. Why did you bring me here?
Riley: I don't know.
Ellie: I don’t know. [Sighs.] You want my advice? Go. C'mon. Let's just say our good-byes.
Riley: I'm gonna go check out this music.
Ellie: Riley. Riley!
[Riley turns from Ellie and leaves the room.]
Ellie: Goddamnit.
[Ellie looks back at the picture of Angel Knives on an arcade machine. She then chases after Riley. She finds her in a large department store, stood listening to the music playing from a stereo set, once more powered by the electricity the two started in the generator room.]
Riley: [Not facing Ellie. Of the room.] You ever see anything like this?
Ellie: Are we just done talking?
Riley: I don't know. Are we?
Ellie: You don't get to be pissed off at me. I'm pissed off at you.
Riley: [Facing Ellie.] For what? Asking you what you think?
Ellie: When have you ever cared about what I think? We were good. We were better than good. And then you told me to fuck off. And then you just up and vanish. This whole day... [Pauses.] You feel guilty? You want an out? I'm, I'm giving it to you.
Riley: I’m supposed to be holed up on the other side of town. I get caught as a Firefly, I'm dead. Guilt didn't make me cross a city full of soldiers, Ellie. And yeah, I did some shit that I don't know to take back but – I'm trying. Speaking of... [Riley removes her back pack and tosses it to the floor, revealing two water guns, the ones a corporal took from Ellie.] Those water guns you've been dreaming of. I nearly got shot for these. Surprise.
[Ellie walks over to the guns and picks them up.]
Ellie: Okay. First...I'm gonna destroy you. [Passes Riley a gun.] And then we'll talk.
Riley: [Prime gun.] You're about to get drenched.
Ellie: Let's see what you got Firefly-girl.
[The cinematic ends. The player now resumes control over Ellie and prepares to face Riley in a water fight.]
=== Don't Go ===
[Riley and Ellie begin walking back to their bags. The cinematic opens to a shot of Riley's bag. It then pans to Riley and Ellie walking back from their water gun fight.]
Ellie: Hey, so...I said it like an asshole but... I totally meant it. [Pause.] You should go. This is something that you've wanted for... You know, forever, so... Who am I to stop you?
Riley: The one person that can.
Ellie: [Jokingly.] No. Please, don't go. I'll be so miserable without you. [Serious.] I'll be fine. And you'll be fine. And we'll see each other again.
Riley: [Of her water gun.] You should keep these. Not gonna do me any good. [Ellie begins putting the guns in her bag.] You still lug that Walkman around?
Ellie: Always.
Riley: Let me see it.
[Ellie removes the Walkman and passes it to Riley.]
Ellie: Here.
Riley: What's in it?
Ellie: That tape you gave me.
[Riley smiles and nudges Ellie as she walks towards the stereo system.]
Riley: You really will be miserable without me.
Ellie: Shut up.
Riley: Leave that. Follow me.
Ellie: What are we doin'?
Riley: You'll see.
[Riley plugs the Walkman into the stereo system and presses it to play.]
Riley: Yeah.
[Riley stands up on a jewelry table.]
Ellie: What are you- Really?
Riley: C'mere. [Riley starts dancing as Ellie climbs up.] Get your ass up here.
Ellie: So stupid...
[Ellie stands, barely moving. Riley grabs her arms.]
Riley: Come on.
[With encouragement, Ellie begins dancing. The pair soon dance separately all around the table. After a while, Ellie drops to stillness again.]
Riley: Here.
[Riley attempts to get Ellie dancing again but she resists.]
Riley: What is it?
[Ellie stands facing Riley, almost sad.]
Riley: Hey...what's wrong?
Ellie: [Sincere.] Don't go.
[Riley stares at her for a moment then pulls her pendant from her neck, tossing it to the
floor. Ellie kisses her for a moment before pulling away.]
Ellie: Sorry.
Riley: For what?
Ellie: What do we do now?
Riley: We'll figure it out. But I don’t think Marlene's gonna go for it-
[A roar calls out in the distance.]
Ellie: Wait.
[They both turn to see several runners charging into the store. One sees them on the table and sprints at them.]
Ellie: Riley!
[Riley draws her pistol and shoots at the runner. The screen cuts to black and the cinematic ends.]
