International airport arrivals hall in the afternoon, with natural fluorescent lighting mixing with golden sunlight streaming through tall windows. Families wait behind metal barriers holding welcome signs, travelers rolling luggage past security checkpoints. Sofia, 17, white American girl in jeans and sweater, stands holding a handmade poster board sign with "WELCOME HOME DAD" in red and blue markers, small American flag taped to corner. Ryan, 19, white American boy in casual clothes, stands beside her arguing. Medium shot captures Sofia shaking her head: "Please don't start." His open hand slaps across her face, she stumbles against the barrier, sign stays gripped in her hand. Close-up: Strangers around them freeze, phones lifting. Wide shot: Automatic arrivals doors open behind her, passengers emerge. Staff Sergeant David Reyes, 40s, white American, walks through in desert combat boots and worn military uniform, deployment bag on shoulder. His eyes scan and find Sofia in seconds. He sees the sign first, smiles, then sees her face—smile becomes something harder. Medium shot: He crosses the hall with measured steps, deployment bag drops to floor, both arms wrap around her in long embrace. Close-up: She presses face to his uniform, still holding sign. He releases her, turns to Ryan with quiet authority: "You're going to leave this airport right now." Ryan studies the boots, uniform, bag on floor, then leaves. Father straightens the small flag on her sign with one finger, picks up bag: "Hungry?" She looks at his worn uniform: "Starving." They walk toward exit together. No logos, no brand names, no watermarks, no text overlays.
