Transcript For Strip 2240
Panel 1Cut to: Diana's workstation in the property-recovery department at Cooper Security. She is focused intently at the Screen.
Caption: Diana had expected her job in the property-recovery section of Cooper Security would be as mundane as her old job working for Juan Goméz had been.
Caption: Instead it was much more complicated.
Panel 2
Diana from POV the screen. She's furrowing her brow in frustration.
Caption: A shipment of highly valuable Drangolian Werpolitzi had gone missing from the Kornbluth testing facility in Braunfels Sphere.
Caption: Kornbluth is contracted with Cooper Security so it's up to Diana to track the stolen goods down and recover them if possible.
Panel 3
She leans back in her chair, momentarily defeated.
Caption: Each 'batch' of Drangolian Werpolitzi has a unique identifier code embedded within, making it easier to track.
Caption: So long as anyone handling it is part of the Kim-Favreau Compact, which allows her to search their transfer records.
Caption: But many operations aren't part of the Compact.
Panel 4
Shift focus, Diana has that crafty look, and we can see Lester at another workstation a few meters away, glancing over at her.
Caption: There are ways around such difficulties, but she isn't cleared for accessing data volumes that sensitive.
Caption: The obvious solution is to go work on her 'babysitter.'
