PAGE 1
Panel 1:Professor Prism stands beside a chalkboard, gesturing wildly, Pip sits, looking puzzled.
“Today, Pip, we tackle entanglement!”
Panel 2:Prism draws two cartoon atoms with a squiggly line connecting them on the chalkboard.
“It's when two particles get super-linked.”
Panel 3:Close-up on Pip, gears turning in its head, a small spark over its head.
PAGE 2
Panel 1:Prism holds up two identical, brightly colored socks, one in each hand, with a mischievous grin.
“Imagine these are 'magic' socks!”
Panel 2:Prism places one sock into a decorated box, giving the other to a still-puzzled Pip.
“They always have opposite colors, but we don't know which!”
Panel 3:Pip holds its sock, looking at the box with a questioning expression on its screen.
“Opposite... how?”
PAGE 3
Panel 1:Prism is now in a different room, opening his box, revealing a bright blue sock.
“Okay, I'm checking mine...”
Panel 2:Pip, back in the original lab, looks at its sock, which is instantly revealed to be red, surprising it.
“Whoa! Mine's red!”
Panel 3:Prism and Pip look at each other through a split panel, both wide-eyed with surprise.
“Instantly!”
PAGE 4
Panel 1:Prism points to a thought bubble above his head showing the two linked atoms, one now blue and one red.
“Like our socks, particles share information, instantly!”
Panel 2:Pip gives a thumbs-up, a bright lightbulb icon appearing above its head, signifying understanding.
“Spooky action at a distance!”
Panel 3:Prism and Pip high-five, both grinning widely, celebrating the successful explanation.
“Exactly!”
