Cannot move character out of overlay

You have to actually add the overlay to the scene, so put it on the script right after the background like this:

INT. LUXURY PENTHOUSE BEDROOM - NIGHT with INT. LUXURY PENTHOUSE BEDROOM - NIGHT
at layer 1

This will put the overlay at layer 1, then you should put you character at any layer above that. You can do so with a command like this:

@CHARACTERNAME moves to layer 2
