Scene 1: The First Recording
Amara and Elliot attempt their first recording session, which quickly goes awry. Amara's nerves get the best of her, and Elliot's perfectionism doesn't help.
"Let's take five," Elliot finally says, running a hand through his hair.
Outside the studio, Amara vents to Mina over the phone. "He's impossible. And he's not even polite about it."
"Sounds like he's pushing you because he believes in you," Mina says.
Scene 2: Finding Harmony
The session resumes, and Elliot adjusts his approach, softening his tone. "Let's just play," he says. "Forget the recording. Play for yourself."
Amara closes her eyes, letting the music flow naturally. This time, the recording captures the raw emotion Elliot had been waiting for.
