Panel One CORRIDOR IN THE HQ. Agent Lackley, terrified, sweating, running for his life. Susan’s word balloon comes from the door he just ran out of. SUSAN: (wavy balloo) OH LACKLEEEEEY! YOOO-HOOOOO! AGENT LACKLEY: Oh God1 Oh God1 Panel Two CONTROL ROOM. Susan floats towards the door Lackley ran out of. She just waves a hand dismissively behind here at everyone. The video camera is left floating there on its own to film everyone in the control room. Venkow has picked up a chair and is trying to swing it at the camera, but Agent Bradley and a techician are pulling him back. SUSAN: Play among yourselves, kids! I’ll be right back! (2) And don’t bother trying to smash the camera! It’s indestructible! AGENT BRADLEY: Sir! Please don’t! Panel Three HALLWAY. Susan casually, smiling, floating down the hall, hands in her pockets. Her feet never touch the floor. Maybe an angle from below. Think of this as a piss-take of those slasher movies like HALLOWEEN. SUSAN: Oh, Kenny! Come out, come out, wherever you are! (2) Heeeerrrre, boy! Panel Four INSIDE A SUPPLY CLOSET. It’s dark, with only the light from the vent panel on the bottom. Lackley is curled up and cringing, sweating. His eyes and face lit by the light from the vents. It’s like a scene from HALLOWEEN, only it’s Lackley hiding in a closet instead of Jamie Lee Curtis. SUSAN: (from outside) You think I’m gonna go all ‘feminist avenger’ on your ass? (2) Yeah, you’re right! But not how you think! Panel Five Susan opens the door to the closet. She’s acting like this is a game of hide-and-seek. Ken, cringing, throws up his hands and screams. SUSAN: GOTCHA! AGENT LACKLEY: (seriously jagged balloon) AAAAAA! AAAAAAAAA!
