Ramen scene
Late at night, unable to sleep, Creed Rivers stops at an outdoor ramen stand. Through a mirror behind the chefs, he spots four Noche assassins closing in. He reacts instantly — hurling his bowl, vaulting the counter, and engaging them in a brutal running gunfight through the stand, the connected building, and into the alley behind. He eliminates the assassins one by one using his pistol, a pan, and the machete torn from the last attacker's grip — before cornering the final man with the arc induction lance, vaporizing him in a burst of lightning. Standing alone in the alley, Creed calls Aline Fonseca and tells her he is leaving the city for her safety.

Panel 1:Wide establishing shot: a late-night outdoor ramen stand on a wet city street. Neon signs in red and orange hang overhead, their light smearing across rain-slicked pavement. A handful of open booths line the counter. Chefs work over steaming broth behind the bar. Creed Rivers sits alone at the far end of the counter, hunched over a bowl, wearing a dark jacket, his back to the street.
Narrator:“Being unable to sleep at night, Creed goes out for Ramen at his favorite ramen bar. ”

Panel 1:Close-up on the mirror mounted behind the chefs — a wide convex safety mirror angled to show the street behind the stand. In its curved reflection, four men in dark coats approach from across the wet street in a loose spread formation.
Panel 2:Extreme close-up on Creed's eyes, narrowed and sharp, reflected neon light glinting across them as he watches the mirror without turning his head.
Panel 3:Insert shot: in the mirror's reflection, one of the approaching men in a dark coat shifts his jacket open with his right hand, fingers wrapping around a gun grip at his hip.
Panel 4:Wide shot: Creed spins off his stool in one explosive motion, snatching his ramen bowl off the counter. His arm is already cocked back, body fully rotated, the bowl leaving his hand in a hard flat throw toward the nearest assassin stepping into the stand.
Panel 5:Medium shot: the ramen bowl connects dead-center with the first assassin's face — broth and noodles exploding outward, the man's head snapping back, hands flying up instinctively away from his gun.

Panel 1:Medium shot: Creed runs and reaches a red GTO parked at the curb under a broken streetlight. He hits the trunk release — the lid pops open, interior light spilling out. Inside the trunk, secured in a foam-lined case, the arc induction lance lies ready — a thick rifle-like weapon with a coiled blue-glowing emitter barrel.
Narrator:“Creed runs and makes it to his red GTO. Inside the trunk…his ARC INDUCTION LANCE”
Panel 2:Low-angle wide shot: the 4 assassins rounds the alley corner at a run — then stops dead. They stand ten feet from Creed, who has turned to face him, the arc induction lance raised and leveled at his chest. The assassin's gun hand drops slightly, his body going rigid.
Narrator:“The Noche attackers were under prepared”
Panel 3:Extreme wide shot: Creed pulls the trigger. A massive bolt of blue-white lightning erupts from the arc induction lance — the assassin's silhouettes consumed entirely by the blast, their bodies dissolving into crackling light and smoke. The shockwave sends ripples across the wet puddles on the pavement. The alley walls light up electric blue.
