INSIDE OUT 7.

MOM/DAD

(cheering)

Heeey! Would you look at that?! We

got a future center here!

INT. HEADQUARTERS

A super-bright CORE MEMORY rolls in.

It rolls to the Core Memory Holder. Clicking into position,

a LIGHTLINE shoots out. The Emotions follow it to the back

window and watch a new ISLAND OF PERSONALITY form.

JOY (V.O.)

And each core memory powers a

different aspect of Riley’s

personality. Like Hockey Island!

Five ISLANDS OF PERSONALITY float in space, miles from

Headquarters, connected by LIGHTLINES -- their power sources.

JOY (V.O.)

Goofball Island is my personal

favorite.
