I wrote the scope for the variable wrong, it should now be:
with an intermediary variable to hold the place for the on-the-fly-generated text in the created script. I removed the sed script for adding the quotes later on in the script and don't need to append anything. This is a lot easier solution, maybe I just needed sleep or something or a fresh look. Regardless to add this part for my boss added 4-5 seconds to the runtime for the script. It used to run in one or two seconds for the creation of the subservient script but that now moved to 7-8 seconds almost with this one line. Just FYI for those comparison shopping things to do in scripts and the time they take to run, the generated script has over 1000 lines in it.
Anyways if you happened to be kind enough to be working on an answer thanks anyways.

The script command forks and creates a sub-shell, according to the value of $SHELL, and records the text from this session. The script ends
when the forked shell exits or when Control-d is typed.
OPTIONS
The following option is supported:
-a Appends the session record to filename, rather than overwriting it.
NOTES
script places everything that appears on the screen in filename, including prompts.
