The script

Panel 1

Alex (excitedly) Sam (nodding, unimpressed)

Alex: Sam, did you hear? The agents in The Matrix are getting more aggressive and might soon kill everybody. I feel like I’ve seen this movie before! Isn’t it a coincidence? Or is it a sign of our future?

Sam: Agents? In the Matrix? Coincidence or prophetic vision, it’s your call, Alex. But I’m not convinced.

Panel 2

Robin (laughing, arms crossed) Alex (confused)

Robin: Maybe Dario's just watching too many Matrix reruns? They all end with the same twist, right?

Alex: But, Robin, it feels like I've seen the ending before. Isn't it a sign of our future? The Matrix of possibilities, anyone?

Panel 3

Sam (sarcastically) Alex (giggling) Robin (smirking)

Sam: Let’s call it a Matrix moment, shall we? It’s either the same movie loop or the end of the world. I’m ready for either option. Just don’t expect any tea leaves.

Alex: Deal. I guess we should be ready for whatever the future has in store, whether it’s another Matrix reboot or the end of the world.

Robin: Or maybe it's just Dario’s wild imagination. Let’s all stay calm and look for our own Matrix moment, shall we?
