Panel 1

Alex in his cluttered garage, working on a new invention. He holds a smartphone in front of him, looking cheerful and excited.

Alex: Alright, Sam! I've got a security blanket for the FBI. Just add my new encryption app, and all their secrets are safe from hackers!

Panel 2

Sam: Yeah, Alex. I can picture it now. Just make sure it doesn't get intercepted by the hackers too.

Panel 3

Alex: No worries! My app can detect any intercepted messages and alert the Feds right away! I'm gonna name it 'The Shield' for now.

Sam: Well, if you're sure it's the best way to go... I guess we could use a little extra security.

Alex: Absolutely, Sam! Together, we're gonna make the world a safer place for all our agents!
