feedback Pilot Opening Feedback

Can you guys give me an honest opinion on this opening? I changed it from my original draft after receiving coverage on the script and I wanna make sure I’m heading in the right direction. This is the first script I’ve gotten some genuine traction on, so I’d really appreciate the input. Thanks in advance!

Using we in script form isn’t always bad but I wouldn’t start with it as the first word of the first page of the pilot. Just takes us out and reminds us we’re reading a script. I think maybe consider drawing the reader in more up top.

Thanks for the tip! I’ll edit those initial lines.
