I Am Scorpion!
Episode Title: "Voices in the Ether"
TEASER
INT. SCORPION HQ – NIGHT
The team gathers around a digital board as Walter O'Brien projects a scanned FBI file onto the screen. The header reads:
"Tokyo Rose Part 02 – FBI Statement, 1946"
WALTER:
We're looking at one of the most controversial cases of WWII propaganda. The FBI's files on "Tokyo Rose"—specifically, the broadcasts of Iva Toguri D'Aquino—are full of firsthand accounts, voice identifications, and confusion over who really spoke on the air.
PAIGE (reading):
The witness says he heard "Tokyo Rose" on Leyte, that she'd use names like "Orphan Ann" or "Your Friendly Comity Chatty Ann." But he's also clear: the voices and styles varied, and sometimes it wasn't Toguri at all.
TOBY:
So, was Iva Toguri really the infamous Tokyo Rose, or just a convenient scapegoat?
SYLVESTER:
The FBI's own files show uncertainty. They relied on witness memory, not hard evidence.
HAPPY:
And yet, she was convicted of treason. If they got it wrong, it's a stain on American justice.
WALTER:
We're going to find out what really happened—by re-investigating the broadcasts, the witnesses, and the politics behind the prosecution.
ACT 1: THE BROADCASTS REVISITED
INT. ARCHIVAL SOUND LAB – DAY
Happy and Sylvester set up a forensic audio analysis, comparing original Radio Tokyo broadcasts to known samples of Iva Toguri's voice.
SYLVESTER:
We have hours of "Zero Hour" tapes. The witness statements say the style and voice changed—sometimes it was friendly, sometimes taunting.
HAPPY:
And the musical selections and intros were different. It's like there were multiple "Tokyo Roses."
PAIGE (via phone):
I'm cross-referencing the names: "Orphan Ann," "Little Orphan Annie," "Your Friendly Comity Chatty Ann." All used at different times, but not always by Toguri.
TOBY:
It's classic psychological warfare—keep the enemy guessing, never let them see the real face behind the voice.
ACT 2: THE WITNESS TRAIL
INT. SAN FRANCISCO – FEDERAL ARCHIVES – DAY
Paige and Toby meet with a historian who has tracked down surviving witnesses and their descendants.
HISTORIAN:
The men who heard "Tokyo Rose" were often exhausted, traumatized, and desperate for news from home. Their memories are vivid—but not always reliable.
PAIGE:
Did any witnesses ever recant or express doubt?
HISTORIAN:
Several did. Some admitted years later that they couldn't be sure which broadcasts were Toguri's and which were other women.
TOBY:
So the prosecution built its case on shaky ground.
ACT 3: THE POLITICAL PRESSURE
INT. SCORPION HQ – NIGHT
Walter and Paige review letters between the Justice Department, the FBI, and the White House. The pressure to find and punish "Tokyo Rose" was enormous.
WALTER:
This wasn't just about justice. It was about politics, public anger, and the need for a scapegoat after the war.
PAIGE:
And Toguri was in the wrong place at the wrong time—an American citizen, stranded in Japan, forced to survive.
SYLVESTER:
The files show the FBI even doubted some of the evidence, but the case went forward anyway.
ACT 4: THE LEGACY OF THE VOICE
INT. UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA – MEDIA STUDIES DEPARTMENT – DAY
Happy and Sylvester present their findings to a panel of historians and journalists.
HAPPY:
Our analysis shows at least three distinct female voices on the "Zero Hour" tapes. Only one matches Toguri's known voiceprint.
SYLVESTER:
The rest? Unknown—likely other broadcasters, or even Japanese nationals imitating American accents.
JOURNALIST:
So, the myth of "Tokyo Rose" was just that—a myth.
HAPPY:
A myth that ruined a woman's life.
ACT 5: THE MODERN ECHOES
INT. SCORPION HQ – NIGHT
The team watches a news report on the exoneration of Iva Toguri and the ongoing debate about wartime propaganda.
ANCHOR (TV):
New forensic evidence and declassified FBI files suggest that Iva Toguri D'Aquino, once vilified as "Tokyo Rose," may have been innocent. The Scorpion team's investigation has reignited calls for a full pardon and a re-examination of other wartime convictions.
WALTER:
History isn't just about the past. It's about setting the record straight for the future.
TAG: SCORPION HQ – LATE NIGHT
Paige and Walter share a quiet moment.
PAIGE:
Do you think we made a difference?
WALTER:
We gave the truth a voice. Sometimes, that's all you can do.

East Wing
Episode Title: "Echoes of Justice"
TEASER
INT. WHITE HOUSE – EAST WING – SITUATION ROOM – NIGHT
Director Ellen Hart (CIA), General Ricci, and Deputy Director Mason are joined by the President and the Attorney General. A folder stamped "Tokyo Rose – FBI Files" sits on the table.
PRESIDENT:
The Scorpion team's investigation is making headlines. The public wants to know: Did we convict an innocent woman for propaganda's sake?
HART:
The evidence was always circumstantial. The FBI's own files show doubts, but the political climate demanded a conviction.
RICCI:
We need to get ahead of this. If we admit mistakes, we risk undermining confidence in the justice system. If we stonewall, we look complicit.
ACT 1: THE POLITICAL FALLOUT
INT. WHITE HOUSE – PRESS OFFICE – DAY
The Press Secretary prepares for a briefing as reporters clamor for answers.
PRESS SECRETARY:
We acknowledge the new evidence and the important work done by independent investigators. The President is reviewing the case and will consider all options, including a posthumous pardon.
REPORTER:
Does this mean the government admits wrongdoing?
PRESS SECRETARY:
We're committed to transparency and justice. The facts will guide our response.
ACT 2: THE NATIONAL CONVERSATION
INT. OVAL OFFICE – DAY
The President meets with the Attorney General, Director Hart, and a panel of historians.
PRESIDENT:
We can't ignore the evidence. But we also can't rewrite history every time new information emerges.
HISTORIAN:
This isn't just about one woman. It's about how we handle justice under pressure. If we don't acknowledge mistakes, we repeat them.
ATTORNEY GENERAL:
A full review is underway. We'll make our findings public.
ACT 3: THE INTELLIGENCE ANGLE
INT. CIA – DIRECTOR HART'S OFFICE – NIGHT
Hart and Mason discuss the intelligence community's role in the Tokyo Rose case.
MASON:
We monitored the broadcasts, but our focus was on Japanese propaganda techniques. The FBI handled the prosecution.
HART:
Still, the line between intelligence and law enforcement blurred. We need to clarify our historical record.
MASON:
And make sure nothing like this happens again.
ACT 4: THE PUBLIC RESPONSE
INT. WHITE HOUSE – MEDIA MONITORING ROOM – NIGHT
Hart, Ricci, and Mason review social media and news coverage.
RICCI:
The public is divided. Some see Toguri as a traitor, others as a victim. The truth is more complicated.
HART:
We need to lead with empathy and facts.
ACT 5: THE PRESIDENT'S ADDRESS
INT. WHITE HOUSE – OVAL OFFICE – NIGHT
The President delivers a televised address.
PRESIDENT (TV):
Tonight, we confront a difficult chapter in our nation's history. The story of Iva Toguri D'Aquino—known to many as "Tokyo Rose"—reminds us that justice must be rooted in truth, not fear or politics. We will review the case fully and ensure that our commitment to fairness endures.
ACT 6: THE AFTERMATH
INT. WHITE HOUSE – PRIVATE STUDY – NIGHT
Hart and the President reflect on the day's events.
PRESIDENT:
Sometimes, leadership means admitting when we've been wrong.
HART:
And making sure we're never wrong in the same way again.
TAG: TV STUDIO – NIGHT
A news anchor summarizes:
ANCHOR (TV):
As the White House promises a full review of the Tokyo Rose case, historians and the public alike await the final verdict—hoping for closure, and a lesson for the future.
