Synopsis

Mia Torres, 28, flips chicken at a failing KFC while her life crumbles under debt and dead-end shifts. One night Colonel Sanders materializes from the drive-thru sign and pummels her in the parking lot, leaving bruises no one else can see. Each beating peels back layers of the brand’s predatory history, pushing Mia to weaponize the Colonel’s own secret recipe against him. Her boss covers up the attacks to protect the franchise; her best friend thinks she’s cracking. As the Colonel’s assaults escalate from fists to fryer grease and secret blend shrapnel, Mia rallies the night crew for a midnight revolt inside the glowing red-and-white tomb. The line between mascot and monster dissolves as she forces the Colonel to taste his own exploitation. In the final showdown Mia burns the secret recipe and walks out wearing the white suit herself, now the new Colonel—only this time the beatings stop.

Cold open

INT. KENTUCKY FRIED CHICKEN - NIGHT

Fluorescent lights hum over empty fryers. MIA TORRES, 28, mop in hand, stares at the glowing Colonel Sanders mural. The eyes seem to follow her.

MIA
Another twelve-hour close. Thanks for nothing, Colonel.

The mural’s painted hand twitches. The red-and-white suit steps off the wall with a wet crunch. COLONEL SANDERS, seven feet tall and smelling of grease, advances.

COLONEL SANDERS
You owe me twelve more hours, girl.

He grabs her by the throat and slams her into the hot box. Grease spatters. Mia screams as his fist—thick with secret herbs—connects with her ribs.

EXT. PARKING LOT - MOMENTS LATER

Mia staggers out, bruises already blooming. The Colonel’s laugh echoes from the bucket sign above.
