Panel 1
Alex: Hey Sam! Remember how we used to joke about the FBI having all our secrets?
Sam: Yeah, Alex. You know, like every agent's name, role, badge number and even their spouse's phone number?
Alex: Exactly! I mean, if they can steal it, they must have some secret tech.
Panel 2
Robin: Well, they definitely have the tech. Look at them now, they’re in a bit of a hacking mess! Can’t wait to see what they use next.
Panel 3
Alex: But hey, at least they’re all human. The real question is, do they have a backup plan for the hackers who are now hacking back?
Sam: Probably a backup plan for backup plans, right Sam?
Alex: Exactly, but this time it better be good or we’re in for some serious fallout. I mean, they can’t just keep letting anyone hack into their system like that.
Robin: Yeah, and a little too conveniently too. They’re in for a world of hurt now.
