[ACT I - SCENE 1]

INT. CAVE - GRIZZLY’S ROOM - MORNING

The bright morning sun cuts through the window of the cave. GRIZZLY (Late 20s) lets out a long, heavy yawn, stretching his arms. He sits up and walks down the hall into the bathroom.

INT. CAVE - BATHROOM - CONTINUOUS

Grizzly turns on the faucet and splashes cold water onto his face. He looks straight into the mirror and instantly flinches. His vibrant, deep cartoon-brown fur is gone—faded into a dull, ash-brown tone, completely drained of life.

GRIZZLY

(Muttering, trying to smile)

Pfft. Just a phase. Yeah. Just a weird bear-aging phase. No big deal.He grooms his fur and takes a quick bath.

INT. CAVE - HALLWAY - CONTINUOUS

Grizzly steps out, drying his head with a towel. Suddenly, a sharp, blinding wave of pain arches across his neck.

GRIZZLY

(A sharp, choked grunt)

Gah!

His eyes give a rapid, painful reflex blink. He grips his own throat, gasping as the pain burns like a high-voltage shock. He runs back into the bathroom.

INT. CAVE - BATHROOM - CONTINUOUS

Grizzly pulls his chin up to inspect his throat in the mirror. He gasps. Right across his neck is a violent, dark purple, jagged bruise—the permanent scar left behind by Agent Trout’s taser batons.

PANDA (O.S.)

(Chirping cheerfully from the dining room)

GRIZZ! Rise and Shine! We have a big day today, you're gonna be so excited, you'll pop like a balloon!

Grizzly freezes. He cannot let them see this. He grabs a long, dark red scarf from the shelf, wrapping it tightly around his neck until the bruise is completely hidden. He forces his voice to sound loud and bright.

GRIZZLY

(Shouting out, hands on his hips)

U-Uh... woohoo! Hooray! I'm so excited! Oh boy... coming, Pan-Pan!

[ACT I - SCENE 2]

INT. CAVE - DINING ROOM - CONTINUOUS

Grizzly steps into the bright dining room, rubbing the back of his head with an overly energetic smile.

GRIZZLY

Morning, Lil' Bros!

At the table, Panda is vibrating in his seat, glued to his phone with a massive grin and a soft blush on his cheeks.

PANDA

(Gasping)

Grizz! You're finally up! Look, Lucy texted me! Her grand opening for "We Kale Bears!" is today, and she wants us to be the first ones to try the new menu! We get to go check it out! Face to face!

At the stove, Ice Bear flips a perfect omelette and carries the breakfast spread to the table. He turns his gaze directly toward Grizzly. For the first time since the cages, Ice Bear’s face softens into a gentle, unexpected, and completely genuine smile. He gives Grizzly a slow, warm wave.

ICE BEAR

(Voice calm, deeply affectionate)

Ice Bear made Grizzly’s favorite. Good morning, big brother.

Grizzly’s heart drops. Seeing his brothers so genuinely happy makes the phantom burning on his neck flare with guilt. His left eye gives a microscopic, erratic TWITCH before he instantly forces his loud daytime mask back on.

GRIZZLY

(Laughing slightly too loud, grabbing a piece of bacon)

Haha! Wow! Smells amazing, Little Bro! You're the best! And Lucy's restaurant?! Oh man, Pan-Pan, you gotta wear your best shirt! Don't want your face turning redder than my scarf, right?! Haha!

PANDA

(Playfully teasing, slowly tilting his head)

Uhm, Grizz? Speaking of scarves, what's with the scarf you have on your neck?— Since when do you do fashion accessories?

Hey everyone! I'm 14 years old and a huge fan of the show. For a long time, I felt like a regular kid with no real talents, and I was in a dark place. But We Bare Bears completely changed my life and inspired me to become a script and transcript comic writer.I’ve been working on a Season 5 Alternative Universe (AU) concept that takes place years after the movie when the bears are in their late 20s. Panda is a successful artist, Ice Bear is a chef at Lucy's new restaurant, but Grizzly is secretly struggling with severe post-movie trauma and schizophrenia from Agent Trout's cages, hiding his scars under a red scarf.I write my stories in true script/transcript format. I'm a bit shy, but I'm really excited to join this community and share my passion with people who love the show as much as I do! If anyone wants to read the script for Episode 1, let me know and I'll post it! Stay Tuned ^°^~
