Episode 8: Seeds of Discord
A week after the incident at the ISS branch, everything appeared normal.
At least… on the surface.
The school bell rang, and students filled the corridors with chatter and laughter. Sam, Sandra, and Sarah walked together like ordinary students, blending into the crowd.
But Sam's mind wasn't in class.
During lunch break, she quietly slipped away.
Scene 1: The President's Office
Sam knocked softly.
"Come in," Dan's voice came from inside.
Sam stepped in, closing the door behind her.
"Sam? I wasn't expecting you."
"I need to ask you something," she said, her tone serious.
Dan leaned back in his chair. "Go ahead."
"Laspa."
Dan's expression didn't change.
"And the robots that took over the ISS branch last week," Sam continued. "Have you seen their symbol before? Do you know anything about the organization?"
Dan hesitated for just a second.
"No," he replied calmly. "I've never seen that symbol before."
Sam narrowed her eyes.
"And Laspa?"
"I don't know him either."
Sam studied his face carefully.
"You're lying," she said quietly.
Dan looked away.
"This isn't just an ISS issue," Sam added. "It's personal."
She turned and walked out before he could respond.
Dan exhaled slowly.
"...She's getting too close."
Scene 2: At Home
Sam dropped her bag on the couch.
Sandra looked up from her laptop. "You're back early."
"Dan is hiding something."
Sandra nodded. "I figured."
They both sat down.
"You think Amanda is working with Laspa?" Sam asked.
"I'm sure of it."
Sandra turned her laptop toward Sam.
"I hacked Amanda's phone."
Sam blinked. "You what?"
Sandra smirked. "Relax. I've been tracking her calls. She contacts someone every two weeks."
"Laspa?"
"Most likely."
Sam leaned forward.
"We need to spy on her."
"Already ahead of you," Sandra replied, typing rapidly.
"Wait… you're hacking the mayor's mansion?"
Sandra smiled proudly.
"Done."
Sam shook her head. "You're scary sometimes."
"I know."
Scene 3: The Plan
Sarah entered the room.
"What are you two doing?"
"We're going out tonight," Sam said.
Sarah frowned. "Mission?"
Sandra nodded.
"Stay home," Sam continued. "Cover for us and do our homework."
Sarah raised an eyebrow. "Both of you?"
"My exam is next week," Sam shrugged. "I'll still pass."
Sandra added casually, "And my IQ is 150. We'll survive."
Sarah sighed.
"...Be careful."
Scene 4: Following Amanda
6 PM.
Sam and Sandra followed Amanda quietly.
"She's heading to the park," Sandra whispered.
"Stay low."
Suddenly, Sandra stepped on Sam's foot.
"Ow!"
"You're the one blocking the way!"
"You're too loud!"
"No, you're too—"
A faint movement in the shadows.
Laspa paused.
"Someone's here," he muttered.
He grabbed Amanda and disappeared.
Sam looked around.
"...We lost them."
Sandra sighed.
"You blew it."
"I blew it?"
They glared at each other.
Mission failed.
Scene 5: Amanda's Plan
Amanda turned to Laspa.
"How did you know we were being followed?"
Laspa smirked.
"Years of practice. A spy notices everything."
Amanda smiled slowly.
"They're not as united as they look."
Laspa crossed his arms.
"What are you thinking?"
"I'm going to break them."
Laspa nodded.
"I'll give you time."
Scene 6: The Cold War at Home
Back home, Sam and Sandra walked past each other without speaking.
Sarah noticed immediately.
"Alfred," she whispered. "What's wrong with them?"
"They had a mission," Alfred replied calmly. "They'll sort it out."
Sarah wasn't convinced.
Scene 7: Family Meeting
Miss Bani returned home.
"What is going on here?"
Alfred explained everything.
Miss Bani sighed.
"Family meeting. Now."
They all sat like a courtroom.
"Sam, explain."
"She ruined the mission."
Sandra crossed her arms. "She started the argument."
Sarah whispered, "This feels like court..."
Miss Bani rubbed her forehead.
"Enough. You two need to work together."
They didn't listen.
Meeting dismissed.
Scene 8: Amanda Strikes (Next Day – School Break Time)
The next day at school, students filled the cafeteria during break time.
Amanda sat quietly at a corner table, pretending to scroll through her phone. Her expression was calm, but her mind was already working.
She glanced around.
"Everyone is here… perfect."
She opened Sandra's stolen laptop hidden inside her bag.
Her fingers moved quickly across the keyboard.
"Let's see how strong your bond really is…"
She logged into multiple accounts and began posting negative reviews about Sam.
"Sam is overrated."
"She's only popular because of her family."
"She thinks she's better than everyone."
Amanda smiled faintly.
Within minutes, the posts began spreading.
She quietly shut the laptop and slipped it back into her bag.
"Let the chaos begin."
Scene 9: School Buzz
A few minutes later, whispers filled the school hallways.
"Did you see the posts?"
"Is it true about Sam?"
"I can't believe it…"
Students began staring at Sam as she walked down the hallway.
Sam frowned.
"Why is everyone looking at me like that?"
Sandra checked her phone.
Her eyes widened.
"Sam… you need to see this."
Sam grabbed the phone.
Her expression darkened.
"What nonsense is this?"
Sandra frowned. "These posts are spreading fast."
Because the sisters were well-known in school, the gossip spread like wildfire.
Some students whispered.
Some stared.
Some secretly recorded.
Even teachers noticed the tension.
Sam clenched her fists.
"This is ridiculous."
Sandra suddenly froze.
"...My laptop."
"What about it?" Sam asked.
"I can't find it."
Sam looked at her.
"You think I took it?"
"I didn't say that."
But the tension was already building.
Scene 10: Explosion
Later during class break, Sandra searched Sam's bag.
Then—
She found it.
"My laptop…"
Sam turned around.
"What are you doing?"
Sandra held it up.
"Explain this."
Sam blinked.
"I didn't put that there."
Sandra shook her head.
"And the posts? You used my laptop?"
Sam's eyes narrowed.
"You think I'd do that?"
"You tell me."
Students nearby started whispering again.
"They're fighting…"
"Wow…"
"They're actually arguing…"
The buzz grew louder.
Sarah watched quietly from a distance.
"...This doesn't feel right."
Later used Sandra laptop after they reached home and realized it was Amanda.
Laspa and Amanda have a secret meeting with other anti agent so Sarah plans to infiltrate by dressing like an anti agent.
Scene 11: Captured
Sarah infiltrated the underground base.
She hid behind a wall.
Then—
Her phone rang.
Laspa turned.
"Who's there?"
Sarah froze.
She was caught.
Scene 12: Rescue
Back home, Sam looked around.
"Where's Sarah?"
Then her device beeped.
SOS: HELP ME
Sam stood up.
Sandra looked at her.
They both nodded.
"Let's go."
Scene 13: Rescue Mission
They stormed the base.
Fighting guards.
Freeing Sarah.
Laspa vanished again.
Scene 14: Aftermath

"It was Amanda," Sam explained.
Dan nodded.
"I'll look into it."

"I'm disappointed in you."
He froze her cards.
Grounded her.
Amanda clenched her fists.
End Credit Scene
Laspa stood in the shadows.
"The sisters..."
He smiled.
"They're becoming a threat."
He stepped forward.
"I'll deal with them myself."
Fade to black.
