Code Breakers” A digital-Heist.

INT. DIMLY LIT BASEMENT – NIGHT

A group of shadowy figures huddle around computer screens, their faces illuminated by the eerie glow of monitors. Among them is HENRY, a middle-aged man with weary eyes and a disheveled appearance. He clutches a coffee-stained notebook tightly.

HENRY (whispering) Alright, folks, we’ve been at this for months. Tonight, we make history.

SARAH, a tech-savvy hacker with a punk-rock edge, nods in agreement.

SARAH (leaning in) Henry, you better be right about this new software.

Henry takes a deep breath and fires up his laptop. Code scrolls rapidly across the screen, and his fingers dance over the keyboard.

HENRY (confident) This software is our golden ticket. It’s designed to bypass even the most advanced security measures. Trust me.

FRANK (agitated) Henry, we’re running out of time! We can’t keep failing like this.

Henry gathers his team in a secluded safe house, paranoia in their eyes.

HENRY (whispering) We’ve crossed a line we can’t erase. We need to disappear, lay low for a while.

SARAH (nervous) And what about the money?

Henry looks at the piles of cash they’ve amassed.

HENRY (resolute) We can’t spend it, not yet. We need to find a way to return it, anonymously.

EXT. FOREIGN INTERNET CAFE – DAY

The team scours the dark web for any lead on returning the stolen funds. They make contact with an elusive hacker known as “Silhouette.”

SILHOUETTE (voice disguised) You want to make amends? I can help you, but it won’t be easy.
