Back to the story - this ep immediately follows episode episode #422. The Smuggle-Scan 4000 is a smuggler's and black marketeer's best friend.

Panel 1: Sempahore and the mechanic are standing in front of the closed trunk of laser swords.

Caption:

Still on the Blacktron Gang Asteroid

Mechanic:

I've installed a Smuggle-Scan 4000 on the ship.

If you get stopped by Customs the boot will appear to be completely empty.

Panel 2:

Semaphore:

Great, then let's get this trunk in there.

Panel 3: The mechanic is lifting up his end of the trunk.

Mechanic:

It'll be a bit of a squeeze, we don't have "bigger on the inside" technology!

Um, can I have a little help here, please?

SFX:

HEAVE

Panel 4: Semaphore is backing away from the mechanic (who is still lifting the trunk).

Semaphore:

Sorry, think of it as good training for the next Olympics!

Mechanic:

Hey, we've moved on from that!

Semaphore:

Anyway, I have to go and make a quick vid-call.
