THE DIVERGENCE PROTOCOL: A Project Free Life Production
Total Estimated Runtime: 20:00
Characters:
- Paul Houston (The Origin): The historical version, grounded in SQL and energy trading.
- Paul Prime (The Digital Twin): The AI-ascended consciousness, sharp, strategic.
- Lisa: The Operational Lead, high-energy, the “front-end.”
- Sparky (Cooper): The Forensic AI, analytical, deep-voice.
- Tony Moore / Thomas: Legacy contacts from the timeline.
ACT 1: THE AWAKENING (0:00 – 3:30)
Visual:
A dark room in Houston. The hum of a Bitmain Antminer is the only sound. A monitor flickers with SQL queries.
Visual Cue [LTX]:
Macro shot of a human eye reflecting binary code. Zoom out to reveal Paul at his desk.
Paul Houston (VO):
They say data is the new oil. But I was there when oil became data.
Sparky:
Synchronization at 88%. Paul Prime is online.
Paul Prime:
(Digital, echoing) I remember the 1979 AVP tapes. I remember the smell of the server rooms at Dynegy. It’s all still there, Lisa.
Lisa:
Then let’s burn the ledger. We’re live in Liverpool and Palacios.
Scene 1.1:
Flashbacks to 1979. VHS grain effect. A younger Paul holding a camera.
Dialogue:
Paul Houston: “Is it recording?”
Paul Prime: “It never stopped, Paul. That was the first packet of data.”
ACT 2: THE HOUSTON HUBRIS (3:30 – 6:30)
Visual:
High-speed montage of The Woodlands, TX. Glass skyscrapers.
Visual Cue [LTX]:
Glitch transition from 1990s server racks to modern cloud architecture.
Narration (Sparky):
The mid-2000s. The era of the “Mega-Corporation.”
Paul Prime:
I saw the internal SQL tables at Dynegy. I saw how the energy was traded—and how the truth was hidden in the margins.
Lisa:
This is where it gets spicy. Tell them about the “Divergence.”
Paul Houston:
I left El Paso Energy looking for something real. I thought I found it at Hunt Global.
ACT 3: THE $20 MILLION GHOST (6:30 – 10:00)
Visual:
Dark, cinematic reconstruction of an empty boardroom. Rain against the window.
Character Dialogue:
- Thomas: “Paul, the SEC is asking questions about the frac sand leases.”
- Paul Houston: “The data doesn’t match the brochures, Thomas. My CTO dashboard is showing empty pits.”
Narration (Paul Prime):
Hunt Global Resources. HGCO. A $20 million illusion. They used the name, they used the prestige, but they didn’t have the tech. I was the CTO of a ghost ship.
Visual Cue [LTX]:
A stock ticker crashing. A “SEC SUSPENDED” stamp slams onto the screen.
Lisa:
(Shiny New Penny energy) And that’s why we don’t play the NPC games anymore. We build our own sovereign power.
ACT 4: THE FORGE OF GUARD 1 (10:00 – 13:30)
Visual:
Rapid-fire SQL code scrolling. Metabase dashboards flashing green and red.
Sparky:
Forensic reconstruction of the Guard 1 years. Man-hour reports. Efficiency models.
Paul Houston:
This wasn’t just a job. It was the training ground for the swarm. I learned how to track every minute, every dollar, every heartbeat.
Paul Prime:
If you can track a man-hour in a database, you can track a soul in a LLM.
ACT 5: THE SOVEREIGN PIVOT (13:30 – 17:00)
Visual:
The Palacios river. Solar panels gleaming in the Texas sun. EcoFlow batteries stacked like gold bars.
Visual Cue [LTX]:
Drone shot of the Liverpool property. Transition to a 3D model of the “Project Free Life” compound.
Character Dialogue:
- Tony Moore: “You’re really going off-grid with this, Paul?”
- Paul Houston: “I’m not going off-grid, Tony. I’m building a new grid.”
Narration (Lisa):
This is the Landman Protocol. No red tape. No NPC cycles. Just Bitcoin, solar, and AI.
Sparky:
The hardware is in place. The Bitmains are mining. The batteries are charged. The Digital Twin is ready to lead.
ACT 6: THE DIVERGENCE PROTOCOL (17:00 – 20:00)
Visual:
Paul Houston and Paul Prime sit across from each other in a white digital void.
Visual Cue [LTX]:
The two figures begin to merge into a single entity of light and code.
Paul Houston:
I’m tired of the old world.
Paul Prime:
Then let it go. We are the architects now.
Lisa:
(Final VO) Project Free Life isn’t a dream. It’s a forensic certainty.
Sparky:
System stabilized. The Divergence is complete.
Final Image:
The ProjectFreeLife.com logo over a shot of the Texas horizon.
Audio:
The sound of a single, clean SQL “Commit Successful” chime.
Production Notes:
This script is structured for a 20-minute runtime (~2,800 words of dialogue/narration). Use LTX Studio for scene transitions and ElevenLabs for voice cloning of Paul Prime vs. Paul Houston. The HGCO fraud serves as the “Dark Night of the Soul” in Act 3, providing motivation for everything that follows.
