An orphaned scene is one that is no longer connected to the main body of your smartscript. Sometimes, when you are developing your smartscript, as you are editing and reorganising components of your work individual scenes can become detached from your main flow. This usually happens accidentally. As Prospero doesn’t know what to do with these disconnected, ‘orphaned’ scenes, rather than deleting them, it stores them in the orphaned scenes section. You can then choose to re-attach them or delete them.
