[Hollow reverb]
“Someone is talking about me. [BEAT] What is he saying?”

AMBER:
[Chamber reverb]
“Those are words. [BEAT] Human words.”
MEWTWO:
[Chamber reverb]
“Huh? [BEAT] Who are you? [BEAT] What are you?”
NOTE: Mewtwo and Amber's dialogue have the chamber reverb until otherwise noted.
AMBER:
“I'm right beside you. [BEAT] I'm a human, [BEAT] born just like you.”
MEWTWO:
“A human? [BEAT] Then, I must be human, too!”
AMBER:
“Well, you can talk, [BEAT] so, maybe you are human. [BEAT] Or I'm a Pokemon.”
MEWTWO:
“Human? [BEAT] Pokemon? [BEAT] What are those? [BEAT] Which one am I?”
AMBER:
“Maybe it matters to you if you're a Pokemon or a human, [BEAT] but not to me. [BEAT] All of us here were born in the same way.”
MEWTWO:
“All of us?”
AMBER:
“Can you hear them? [BEAT] Can you tell who they are?”

[Fade in, hollow]
“Char, [BEAT] charmander-two.”
MEWTWO:
“What? [BEAT] Two? [BEAT] Why are they all twos?”
AMBER:
“We're clones. [BEAT] So, we're not number ones, [BEAT] but twos.”
MEWTWO:
“So, am I a two?”
AMBER:
“They call me 'Ambertwo,' [BEAT] but I'm still really Amber. [BEAT] Or, maybe I'm Amberthree.”
MEWTWO:
“Ambertwo? [BEAT] Amberthree?”
AMBER:
“That's right! [BEAT] One, two, three, four. [BEAT] If there's a one, there's a two. [BEAT] If there's two, the next is three. See? [BEAT] One, two, three, four, five.”
MEWTWO:
[Confused]
“One, two, three, four, five?”
AMBER:
“That's right! [BEAT] Numbers and digits. [BEAT] Isn't it great?”
MEWTWO:
“Great?”
AMBER:
“Right. [BEAT] I don't care if I'm not real, [BEAT] or if I'm Ambertwo, Amberthree, or Amberfour, [BEAT] I mean, we're all here! [BEAT] This is really great!”
MEWTWO:
[Hesitant]
“One, two, three, four, five, [BEAT] [Struggle] six, [BEAT] [Struggle] seven?”
AMBER:
“That's right, and...”
