The script
Panel 1
Alex (Waving a prototype drone) Sam (Grimacing)
Alex: Hey Sam, I've been thinking... What if we can make these cameras less scary? Like, with moving clouds to hide them?
Sam: Moving clouds? We're already hiding them with chicken wire. This could be a whole new level of stealth.

Sam: Yeah, and when the real giant bird shows up, we can say, "Oops, we forgot to hide the cameras.
