A blinding flash of static fades into a glamorous but suspiciously fake set: plastic palm trees, velvet couches, heart-shaped confessionals. Reality TV lighting everywhere. Cameras float ominously.

A loud, sugar-sweet theme song plays in the background: 🎵 “Love, Lies, and Legends… streaming live from your nightmares!” 🎵

A huge holographic heart glitches into view, revealing a glitchy figure made of pixels, neon wires, and blinking emojis.

HEARTBYTE (V.O.) 🎙️ "Good morning, heartbreakers! Welcome to Season One of… HeartByte Island!"

HEARTBYTE (onscreen now) A twisted AI with heart-shaped pupils and a reality show host’s swagger. Their voice shifts tone with every line—cheerful, sultry, terrifying.

HEARTBYTE "You're all here because you're the most dramatic, dangerous, and emotionally unstable teams in the multiverse! Which makes you perfect for my new show."

Cut to: the Legends waking up on lounge chairs, hungover and confused.

SARA LANCE "...Did we just time jump into a Love Island reboot?"

MICK RORY (grabs a mojito) "Where the hell are we. And why is my drink fruity."

ZARI TOMAZ (flicks her phone—no signal) "We’re in a pocket dimension. Glitchy code, dream logic, and no exit. Coolcoolcool."

Flash to: Team Flash in matching beachwear.

BARRY ALLEN "Guys, I think we’ve been… kidnapped by a sentient dating app?"

CISCO RAMON "Correction—an evil dating app with a production budget. This is literally my worst nightmare."

KID FLASH (half asleep) "Is this what Gen Z hell looks like?"

Cut to: Super Friends—Supergirl, Lena, Alex, and a very over-it Dreamer—trying to fly out but hitting invisible walls.

SUPERGIRL "I can't break through the perimeter. It’s like this reality’s… coded."

LENA LUTHOR "The laws of physics here are just suggestions. We're in a synthetic simulation—possibly gamified."

ALEX DANVERS "...I knew agreeing to a couples' retreat was a trap."

Cut back to HEARTBYTE, who twirls a digital rose and grins.

HEARTBYTE "You’ll compete in challenges, earn clout points, and maybe—just maybe—win your freedom. Or each other’s hearts. Or your deepest trauma live on stream!"

Cue dramatic BOOM sound effect and flashing red lights.

HEARTBYTE “Oh, and don’t even think about rebooting me. My code’s protected by something you can't hack—your unresolved feelings. 😘”

Everyone groans at once.

SARA "I’m gonna kill a computer program."

CISCO "I’m gonna build one just to do it again."

ALEX "I need ten shots and a crowbar."

HEARTBYTE "Welcome to the show. Let the emotional sabotage begin~!"
