The Lunar Chronicles: The Fanmade Audio Drama Season 2
Patti Knox for Scarlet Benoit
With a personality as fiery as her bright red hair, Scarlet never hesitates to speak her mind. Despite growing up spoiled in Paris, she learned how to shoot a gun, hunt, and take care of herself after moving onto her grandmother’s farm and is an incredibly self-sufficient 18-year-old. She’s stubborn to a fault and refuses to take the police for their word when they say her missing grandmother simply ran away. She teams up with a mysterious streetfighter, Wolf, who seems to have answers about her grandmother’s whereabouts. Through spending time with him, she realizes that maybe some of the defensive walls she’s built up over the years can finally come down.

(Context for Line 1- Scarlet notices a bug on her father planted by the people who kidnapped her grandmother. She figures it’s transmitting audio to the kidnappers and speaks directly into it.) I don’t know what the hell you want, but I swear, if you even lay one finger on my grand-mère, I will hunt every last one of you down and snap your necks like the chickens you are!
(Context for Line 2- Scarlet has opened up to Wolf about her upbringing, something she’s never done to anyone else before.) Yeah. Life's funny that way. (Beat.) Mamie is the closest thing I have to a mom. When I lived with my papa, I would throw tantrums and scream just to get his attention. When I moved in with Mamie, She treated me like I mattered… like everything I said was worthwhile. I didn’t have to act like a spoiled brat to have her see me. (Beat.) So, yeah, not getting along with your parents is something we have in common.
(Context for Line 3- Scarlet is taken to see her grandmother after being imprisoned by the group who kidnapped her. She is openly crying.) After Papa told me what happened, I had to find you. Are you alright? Are you hurt? (Beat.) Good. I’m getting us both out of here. I promise. God, I’ve missed you so much.
