LYDIA
You are absolutely right.
EXT. NEAR THE GATE LEADING TO THE INSTITUTE – MORNING
A crowd of several dozen protesters is standing by the gate. Several buses arrive and unload several hundred more protesters who join the siege around the gate. The police are not around at this time of the morning.
INT. IN THE INSTITUTE KITCHEN – MORNING
Lydia approaches Akiva, who is finishing cleaning the kitchen after breakfast.
LYDIA
I notice that you have recently developed an aura, around your body and head. Do you want to tell me something about it?
Akiva stands embarrassed, but after a few seconds he comes to his senses.
He swallows.
AKIVA
Yes, I go out at night to the greenhouse we discovered. Trying to understand what is going on there.
LYDIA
You know that we are not allowed to travel in the mountain alone. You probably know that.
