Production Notes
**FADE IN:** **INT. WAREHOUSE - NIGHT** Jonathan meets with his old crew. JONATHAN Reign has lost her way. She’s forgotten the code. I’m taking back control. I’m doubling everyone’s pay. Are you with me? Half the crew cheers, their loyalty bought by the promise of quick cash. **INT. REIGN’S COMMAND CENTER - NIGHT** Reign meets with the other half of the crew. REIGN Jonathan offers you money. I offer you a future. Health insurance. Retirement plans. A legitimate life for your families. But you have to choose. The crew is divided. They value Jonathan’s loyalty, but they fear Reign’s power and respect her vision. **EXT. STREET - NIGHT** The two factions have a tense standoff in the street. Brothers who have fought side-by-side are now on opposite sides of a line drawn by their king and queen. The empire is officially broken in two. **SMASH CUT TO BLACK.** **ON SCREEN TEXT: THE CIVIL WAR HAS BEGUN.** **END OF EPISODE 32**
