Bakar or Agent Bakar is one of the two tritagonists, alongside Rizwan, of the Agent Ali series. He is a Combat M.A.T.A. Agent and the biological uncle to Ali. In Season 2, he works as the mentor of KOMBAT young agents.
Agent Bakar is an agent under M.A.T.A and is Ali's biological Uncle. He is given the responsibility of training Ali under General Rama's command. As a M.A.T.A Kombat Pillar Agent, he is capable of fighting enemies with various types of martial arts.
At the end of MISSION: SENSATIONAL, Bakar is suspected to be the traitor in M.A.T.A. and believed to be Uno since he is captured copying the blueprint of I.R.I.S. in MISSION: BLUEPRINT by security cameras. However, in MISSION: EVIDENCE, Ali finds out that Bakar is framed as he is being mind-controlled by Dr. Aaron to retrieve the I.R.IS.'s blueprints.
Appearance[]
Bakar has curly, afro-like hair, and has sharp features around his chin and jawlines, highlighting masculine features on him. He has thick eyebrows and a squared nose, and has bigger body sized compared to other characters.
Bakar usually sported a red-and-white baseball cap. He wore it to the front during mission, and wore it backward when not in mission. He usually wears a heavy blue Combat suit that can withstand and tanked most attacks, and his main gadget is Plasma Shield, equipped on both of his arm. In his casual outfit, he wears a blue jersey shirt, a short pant that reach until his knees, and a pair of sandals.
He sometimes sported a fake mustache when he’s trying to disguise himself. Some of the disguise he has worn is S.R.T. Cyberaya 1’s cleaner outfit and a butler’s suit in MISSION: NEO, where he combed back his hair.
Personality[]
Bakar is light-hearted and friendly, but can be serious when he needs to be. He is protective of his nephew and cares a lot about his family, even his brother-in-law, Ghazali. He does his best to keep M.A.T.A.'s existence a secret, and time and time again lends his Kombat agent skills to important missions. General Rama trusts him with mission plans - and the responsibility of keeping Ali safe while M.A.T.A. searches for a way to separate him from Ali.
Bakar is confident about both his skills and looks, and constantly hits on any lady who crosses his path, including Dos and Jenny, with his cringy and terrible pick-up lines. His only other love is for food - especially burgers, which he tends to eat on the go during missions. As a Kombat agent, he frequently gets beat up and injured.
While Bakar can be goofy, clumsy, and unserious, he is wise for his age, and often provided Ali with life advices or emotional support each time Ali faces insecurity or indecisiveness. He also knows when to jokes and when to take his mission seriously, as seen by him flirting with Dos or Cinco, but did not let his guard down enough for them to overpower him.
Back when Aliya was still alive, he used to be a reckless and a troublemaker agent, alongside Karya, as seen by them ignoring Leon's briefing and running straight into mission without preparation. He learned to value teamwork and taking things seriously with his team (Leon, Karya, and Geetha), and passed down these lessons to Ali in the future.
Bakar is bad with technology, as he needs Jenny to explain gadgets usage to him. After her departure, he faces difficulties in understanding how to use his new gadgets or communication devices, making General Rama annoyed with him. He also doesn't know how to navigate his smartphone as efficiently, as he accidentally muted his phone and needed Ali to unmute it for him. Although he is bad with technology, he has a positive outlook about it and did not blame technology as the reason human fell behind or do bad things about, instead he sees it as a neutral tool that assist human.
History[]
Pre-Series Life[]
When Bakar was a young child, he was bullied by a few teenagers and had his burger taken. Aliya stepped in but got hit back, and Bakar stood up against the bullies multiple times, until they got bored and spooked by him, throwing his burger back and leaving them. Aliya comforted Bakar by offering to buy him a new burger. In another flashback, he tried to play with the other kids at the park, but was shunned and ignored as he didn't has the latest handheld gaming console, GameBod. Aliya saw him sulking on a bench and comforted him, and they play tag together. Later, Aliya gifted Bakar a self-made handheld gaming console for Bakar, and although Bakar teased her for only having old video game in it, he thanked her and treasured it.
M.A.T.A. Secret Files (MISSION: AIR HITAM): Bakar is seen being late to his mission briefing again. He rushed his order at Mamak Maju, garnering attention. Mamak Maju helped distracted the customer while Bakar was sent to M.A.T.A. HQ via secret route. Bakar ran to the briefing room, and apologized to General Rama for being late. General Rama scolded him as this was the tenth time he’s late again, and Bakar got lectured by Leon, making Bakar irritated at Leon. Bakar, Leon, Karya and Geetha were assigned to erase malware found in some waste disposal bots that has lost control and attacked the workers, with Leon appointed as the team leader for the mission. Bakar and Karya sneaked out and went straight to destroying the bots while Leon tried to explain his strategy to the team. Bakar and Karya bet against each other that whoever can destroyed the most bots will get treated to lunch for a whole week. They were caught off-guard by a huge waste disposal bot that can shoot lasers, and they were forced to hide behind covers. Bakar tried to distract the bot so Karya can ambushed it from behind, but the laser attack was too strong, and they ended up cornered again, until Leon and Geetha arrived and assisted them. Bakar recklessly rammed one of the bots Geetha was on, making her fall but she was saved by Karya. With teamwork, they managed to take down the bot, but another bot came and taken Geetha. Geetha was trapped under the bot, and the bot has heavy plasma shield that repels attacks. Bakar and Leon ended up in a heated argument, but Karya reminded them to focus. Leon analysed the bot using his Data Watch, and Bakar begrudgingly asked Leon for a plan. While Karya distracted the bot, Bakar would ambush from behind and tanked the next attack, allowing a window of moment for Geetha to throw Karya’s card to the bot’s main sensor. They managed to take down the bot and their mission concluded. Back at the H.Q., General Rama scolded them for making things unnecessarily complicated due to their infighting. After the report, Leon said his goodbye, and told Bakar not to be late for the next mission, implying he still wants to team up with him again in the future. Bakar promised not to be late again while Karya teased Leon for not lecturing Bakar, and Leon threatened to report Bakar’s tardiness to Aliya the next time he’s late again, making Bakar tried his hardest to convince Leon not to tell her. Karya reminded Bakar of their bet and mentioned he took down more bots, so Bakar has to treat him to lunch for the next week, to which Bakar relent, and they went to Mamak Maju together.
Story[]
Season 1[]
Dos and Trez sneaked into one of M.A.T.A. base, and Bakar happened to be one of the agent working there that night. Dos ran into Bakar, and Bakar stopped her and gave her one of his cringy pickup line. Bakar claimed he knew everyone in the base, so he assumed Dos is a new agent assigned to the base, unaware that she was there to steal I.R.I.S.. Bakar was too late to stopped her from escaping, and thought to himself “he’s done for” for losing I.R.I.S. under his watch. He tried tracking I.R.I.S. down, and found the signal to stopped at S.R.T. Cyberaya 1. He reunited with Ali, who he thought is now 9 years old. Bakar followed Ali to a nearby convenience store, but his suspicious behaviour makes Ali confused. Bakar asked Ali if he has taken something by mistake, to which Ali denied. Bakar told Ali he’s in danger, and told him to run away while he stall Trez. Ali got captured by Dos, and Bakar arrived to save him. Ali tried to run away with I.R.I.S., but felt bad about leaving Bakar behind so he came back and synchronised I.R.I.S. to himself. Ali passed out from draining his energy via I.R.I.S., and Dos and Trez ran away as backups is arriving soon. Bakar took Ali to one of M.A.T.A. base, where Bakar, General Rama, and Jenny discussed about Ali’s fate now that he has locked I.R.I.S. to himself. General Rama told Ali he now belonged to M.A.T.A., and will be made into an agent until they figured out a way to separate I.R.I.S. from him. Since then, Bakar went on missions with Ali, accompanied by Alicia, Rizwan, and Comot. After Ali disobeyed a “Protokol Gegas” order, he was suspended for a little while and Rizwan took over and trained Ali, making Bakar felt lonely and jealous over Rizwan’s role in Ali’s life. While chasing validation, Ali created a Waubook social media account using his agent identity, making Bakar mad at him for endangering his life and missions, and forcefully told Ali to delete it. Ali refused and in the heat of the moment, told Bakar that he’s not the one making him cool, it’s Rizwan. Bakar later helped Ali save Viktor who was kidnapped by Abang Bear and Komeng, and having learnt his lesson, Ali deleted his social media account, and tried to tell Bakar and apologised to him, but they were interrupted by General Rama, Rizwan, and Jenny, who arrested Bakar and accused him of being a mole to the enemies. When Numeros invaded M.A.T.A. base for I.R.I.S., Comot helped released Bakar from his cells, and he went straight to save Ali from Numeros, but was injured badly by Uno. Ali triggered Override Mode, and managed to take down Numeros, but Jenny succeeds in overriding one of the droid manually to stop Ali and separate I.R.I.S. from Ali. Alicia arrived with Comot and saved Ali and Bakar from being buried in rubbles. Back at Ali’s home, Bakar waited for Ali to wake up, and they apologised and made amend with each other. Bakar told Ali about the aftermath of Numeros invasion. Later, they returned to the base for one last report from General Rama, and Bakar prompted General Rama to tell Ali about M.A.T.A. Academy. Ali took his one last look at I.R.I.S., but due to his clumsiness, accidentally synchronise I.R.I.S. to himself again, making General Rama really angry at him.
Season 2[]
Bakar, Ali, Alicia, and Comot went on a mission to stop Komeng and his goons from stealing. The next day, Ali, Alicia, Bakar, Karya and Comot went to M.A.T.A. Academy together for the first time, only to find it in ruin. Ali and Alicia work together to fight against the mysterious Masked Magician, until Bakar stopped them and welcomed them to M.A.T.A. Academy, explaining to them that everything is staged and it’s an orientation exam for both of them. While Ali was enrolled at the Academy, they went on a few training missions together. They encounter Jenny, now Cinco, during a mission at C-Tech Weapons Manufacturing Facility, and Ali got suspended from the Academy as they worry about him and I.R.I.S. safety. Bakar, Leon, Geetha, and Rizwan were assigned to recapture Dos who has escaped from her cells, only to get betrayed by Rizwan who planned to run away with Dos so he can meet with Uno. Ali, overwhelmed with his emotions, triggered Override Mode and injured his allies, and Bakar, with the help of Leon and Geetha, stopped Ali from going after Rizwan. Ali tried to apologise to everyone, and Bakar expressed his disappointment at Ali. Ali failed one of his trainings due to his miscommunication issue, and was scolded by the other Mentors. Bakar told him to stop playing hero and to stop acting alone and by himself. A few days later, Analogman escaped while being transported to his jail, and Bakar, Ali, Alicia, and Moon were assigned to recapture him. They tried Atlas for the first time and Bakar was proud of Ali’s improvement and invention. After a period of time, Rizwan returned and turned himself in at M.A.T.A. Academy, and demanded an audience with M.A.T.A. Pillars Leaders. Rizwan, controlled by Uno, turned off Academy Island defense system, allowing Numeros to invade the island. Bakar, Karya, Leon, and Geetha tried to hold them off, but was badly overpowered. The Academy Students had a standoff against Numeros, assisted by Agent Zain, and he stayed behind to stall Uno while the other students and mentors escaped from the island before a satellite aerial attack destroyed it. Bakar was last seen accompanying Alicia to pay her tribute to Agent Zain, and he silently pay his tribute to Aliya as well before leaving the memorial room with Alicia.
MISSION: NEO[]
Bakar, Ali, Alicia, and Comot were assigned to rescue Dato’ Othman from a terrorist attack. One of the terrorist managed to bombed a huge hole on the plane they are on, and Bakar tried to seal the hole shut, but faced difficulties due to air pressure threatening to suck them all out of the plane. Agent Fit and Agent Bobby arrived to assist them. The next day, Bakar, Ali, Alicia, and Comot were invited to M.A.T.A. HQ for a mission briefing, where they were requested to track down Abang Bear and his illegal weapon dealing. During mission, Ali left to chase after Niki. Bakar and Alicia tried to find Ali, and Ali surprised them from behind, and Bakar asked Ali about his well-being and scolded him for leaving mid-mission. After receiving intel from Abang Bear, Bakar, Ali, Alicia, Comot, Fit, and Bobby were assigned to sneak into Menara Beta to find link between Vikram and the illegal weapon dealing. Ali accidentally revealed Vikram’s hidden compartment, and they found plenty of Azurium hidden inside it. Since then, Ali no longer joins their missions, and each time Bakar and the other arrived at Vikram’s other base, they found Azurium has long been taken away by some unknown perpetrator. Bakar was assigned to capture Ali under M.A.T.A.’s order, but he tried to talk with Ali first and held some agents back from instantly capturing him, allowing Ali to escape. Ali hurt Bobby and Fit tried to hurt him back, but Bakar pushed Fit off and argue with him. Ali ran away to Pinggiran and unknowingly lead Bakar, Alicia, and Fit to a trap. They were taken out by Niki, Surya, and Andik, and were restrained physically by Niki back at her base. Niki revealed to them the truth about Aliya and I.R.I.S., and left them behind in order to deal with Vikram and take out Dato’ Othman. Ali had a breakdown, but was comforted by Bakar and Alicia. Mak Yah arrived with Comot and released them from their restrain, and Bakar and Ali rushed to stop Niki from murdering Dato’ Othman. They were assisted by other M.A.T.A. agents who are equipped with I.R.I.S. Neo, but Niki was able to override theirs, making them lose control and attacked Ali, Bakar, Alicia, and Mamak Maju gang. Ali eventually triggered Override Blue and take down Niki. Bakar came to see the defeated Niki, who told Bakar to end her life and take revenge for Aliya, as she no longer has any will to live. Bakar refused, saying that’s not what Aliya wanted, and believe in giving another a second chance. After the event, Bakar, Ali, and Alicia meet up with Agent Dayang and Agent Ganz, who requested Ali to return I.R.I.S. back to M.A.T.A. as punishment for helping Niki. Bakar tried to argue with them, but Ali accepted his punishment and gives I.R.I.S. back. Bakar shares clips and video logs of Aliya stored in M.A.T.A. database to Ali, now that Ali knows about Aliya’s true identity. Bakar reminisced about his moment with Aliya where he asked her why she wanted him to be agent, and Aliya told him that there will always be people in need of help, so they have to be the helping hand they need. Bakar, Ali, Alicia, Comot, General Rama, Rahul, Rajesh, Razman, Fit, and Bobby went to eat together later.
In M.A.T.A. Secret Files (Post-Mission: Neo Logs), Bakar and Ali went on a run together as daily training, and Ali shared his insecurities and worries about no longer having I.R.I.S. by his side, since he thought he won’t be as efficient and useful as he previously was without I.R.I.S. aid. Bakar attacked Ali seriously, and Ali dodged all of the attack. Bakar explained to Ali that even without I.R.I.S., Ali was able to dodge all his attacks, so he has nothing to worry about. Bakar shared a pendrive containing Aliya’s video logs to Ali so he can study and learn from her.
Season 3[]
Bakar tried to sneak into Ali’s home to surprise him, only to find Ali has long woken up and has started his daily morning training. Bakar and Ali talked about Aliya at the hills watching over Cyberaya, with Bakar admitting he felt worried that if Ali find out the truth about Aliya, he will quit as an agent, but Ali reassured him that he felt more motivated as it makes him felt closer to Aliya. Ali excused himself so he can give Comot her breakfast, and Bakar tried to challenge Ali to a run, but tripped on a branch and rolled down the hills, and Ali chased after him. Later that day, Bakar tried to join an online meeting with the other mentors and students, but his loudness distracted the class, so Geetha kicked him out from the call. Back at M.A.T.A. Arena, while supervising the student’s friendly match, Bakar asked about the imported agents, to which Leon corrected him with “international young agents”, and told him not to change their titles carelessly. Leon briefed the young agents about M.A.T.A. Arena tournament. Bakar wake the young agents up early the next day, and narrated Arena round with his megaphone, annoying Leon. Ali scored Top 5 at the obstacle run round and was given a new gadget upgrade. While Ali was still confused about what to choose, Bakar arrived with burgers and shares stories about Aliya and giving him advice, easing Ali’s mind. Bakar helped Ali choose his upgrade, and they choose Magnetic Techno Suit together as it looks cool. When Bakar caught Ali and the other young agents fought in the cafeteria, he scolded them, and gave Ali a wake-up call about how Aliya did not win Arena by messing around. He later stepped in with the other mentors to stop the round as the other agents start fighting among each other instead of focusing on the tournament. Alongside other mentor, he staged a blackout to force them to talk and get to know each other, and later explained the situation and the next round briefing to Ali and the other young agents. He informed Ali that his point was deducted due to Comot’s misbehaviour, so Ali did not get to pick his team for the next round. During treasure hunting round at Cyberscience Center, Ali, Alicia, and Kim ran into Rizwan and Dos, and Bakar and the other mentors fought them so Ali, Alicia, and Kim can escape. After the Cyberscience incident, Bakar, Geetha, Leon, Karya, General Rama, Dayang, and Ganz discussed about Rizwan and whether to continue the Arena tournament. Disappointed with Dayang’s decision to continue the tournament, Bakar confronted them, and Geetha backed him up, claiming that the current participants did not have enough time to train and were not ready, and their morale is already down after Cyberscience Center attack. Dayang and Ganz explained themselves, and admitted that the current tournament was run to find the new suitable user for I.R.I.S.. The amount of current participants were reduced to only 8 and there’s a team imbalance issue, so they were made to change Pillar, and Ali and Khai were assigned to Combat pillar. Bakar refused to share information about Rizwan to Ali, making Ali angry, and he refused to pay attention to Bakar’s Combat training, and later acted recklessly during tournament round. Bakar went to visit Ali after the first tournament round at Techno room, and Ali apologised to Bakar for being harsh on him about Rizwan and for losing focus. Bakar gives pep talk to Ali, and he tearfully tells Ali that he felt proud of him and gave him a long hug, until Kim interrupted them and he walked out of the room crying loudly. Bakar cried tears of pride when Ali was named the finalist of Arena. During the final, Bakar and Karya would attack any finalist who stepped out of the tournament bound. Before the final can conclude, Cinco invaded the Arena ground, and Bakar, Leon, Geetha, and Karya stepped in and instructed Ali and Alicia to find the other finalists and helped the other students and Dayang and Ganz. They were defeated by Cinco, who has Override Mode on her side. After defeating Cinco, Bakar, Leon, Geetha, Karya, Dayang, Ganz, and the other young agents celebrated Alicia as the new winner of Arena tournament and as the new I.R.I.S. agent. Bakar looked at Ali and Ali gives him a reassuring smile.
MISSION: S.A.T.R.I.A.[]
Bakar went on a mission with Fit and Bobby, with Alicia leading the team at Azurium Refinery, to stop a group of pirates from stealing unprocessed Azurium. While they were able to stop them, Alicia was struck with a vision of a worker and the pirate boss working together, and instructed the team to stop them. Bakar and Bobby chased after them to the escape pod to prevent them from escaping, while Alicia and Fit stayed behind, trying to stabilize the refinery system to prevent an explosion or collapse. While the mission is a success, Alicia was seen feeling anxious about something. A few days later, Bakar and Alicia were assigned to assist Ali in his first S.A.T.R.I.A. mission to capture Neonimus, and Bakar gets to see Ali donned S.A.T.R.I.A. suit for the first time. While the mission seems to be a breeze at first due to Ali and Alicia’s efficiency, they later found a speeding bus filled with civilians in danger. Bakar and Alicia stayed behind to save them while Ali chased after Neonimus. Neonimus managed to hack the tunnel, allowing water to flood in, potentially drowning them. Alicia override the cars and tunnel doors to pave a way for Bakar to drive the civilians out, but passed out from overusing her energy via I.R.I.S.. Bakar tried to save her from drowning, but Ali was faster, so Bakar save himself instead. Neonimus sent them another threat again, and Bakar, and multiple other agents were assigned to Cybertopia to track down Neonimus. Bakar and Alicia enjoyed themselves to ice cream and rollercoaster ride, much to Fit and Bobby’s surprise. They were overpowered by Neonimus’s spiderobos, but Ali managed to take down Neonimus and successfully ended the mission. M.A.T.A. HQ fall under chaos later for unknown reason. Bakar, Karya, Geetha, and Leon tried to hold off Cero, who now has access to S.A.T.R.I.A., while Pillar Leaders, Dato’ Othman, and Cyberaya Developers escaped via “Island Protocol”. Leon mistook S.A.T.R.I.A. as Ali, but Bakar corrected him, suggesting that the current S.A.T.R.I.A. is not Ali as it is taller, since Ali is short, like Leon. Cero easily took them out. Bakar appeared again as a hallucination in Ali’s nightmare sequence, where he blamed Ali for everything that is currently happening.

Ali is Bakar's biological nephew. Bakar took care of him when he was a toddler, but stop visiting after Aliya's death. They reunite again after Ali mistakenly receive I.R.I.S. and they went on missions together. Bakar play the hypeman and emotional support role for Ali. When Ali starts getting too close to Rizwan, Bakar felt jealous and insecure, though they move on from this after MISSION: OVERRIDE event. Bakar is proud and always believe in Ali's potential as an agent. He is caring and patient with him, but is not afraid to hold Ali accountable when needed. Ali looks to Bakar as a source of motivation and support.
Aliya was Bakar's elder sister. They both love each other and Bakar looked up to Aliya. Aliya would stand up for Bakar against his bullies, and even learn diligently to help build a mini gaming console for Bakar. Aliya kept secret about her involvement with Niki and Pinggiran from Bakar, but told him all about her involvement with M.A.T.A.. She was the reason why Bakar joined M.A.T.A. as an agent. Bakar is also a little scared of Aliya, as mentioned in Mission: Air Hitam where Leon threatened to snitch to Aliya if Bakar fell out of line again. Bakar was not aware of the real reason why Aliya dies, and when she passed away, Bakar stopped visiting Ali and Dr. Ghazali due to grief. Bakar would always share stories and videos about Aliya to Ali.
Alicia is Bakar's teammate, and they often teamed up together even in missions where Ali is not assigned to. Both Bakar and Alicia are comfortable working with each other, and trusted each other's skills as an agent. Bakar is one of Alicia's trusted adult as he was the one to accompany Alicia when they visit Zain's memorial. Bakar is attentive to Alicia's well-being during missions, often tanking hits meant for her and asking if she is okay. Alicia also back up Bakar when Agent Fit was pissed that Bakar was having fun instead of taking the mission seriously, claiming that since their role is to blend in with the crowd, they might as well have fun. Alicia and Bakar ride a rollercoaster ride together.
Comot is Ali's pet cat and Bakar's teammate. Comot trusted and is comfortable being around Bakar, and doesn't mind his touches or getting close physically to him. It is implied that Bakar smothered her with too much love and attention when he took care of her for Ali, causing Comot to hissed at Bakar when he petted her and claiming that Comot likes to stay with him.
Rizwan was Bakar's coworker. While they get along well and Bakar looked up to him as the best agent in M.A.T.A., he does get insecure over Rizwan's mentorship with Ali. Bakar also knows Rizwan well enough to be able to tell Ali about Rizwan's backstory. Bakar is the one who felt the most betrayed (after Ali) over Rizwan's departure from M.A.T.A..
General Rama: They have a superior-employee relationship. While General Rama trusted Bakar to handle missions, he also felt annoyed with Bakar's incompetency in technology.
Jenny Woo/Cinco: Jenny was Bakar's coworker. He trusted her skills as a Techno agents, and would sometimes flirted with her. When he tried saving Ali from Numeros, he requested assistance from Jenny, only for her to direct droids attack to him. Bakar was confused with her behaviour and assumed it was because she wasn't wearing her glasses. When Ali revealed Jenny as the mole in M.A.T.A., Bakar was surprised to know she was friend with the ugly beefy guy (Trez). Jenny is often annoyed with Bakar's flirting and his tendency to bring food to the base, causing roach infestation in the base. When Bakar reencounter Cinco again at C-Tech Factory, he tried to persuade Cinco to return to M.A.T.A., and she responded with a laser attack.
Bakar work with Geetha, Karya, and Leon as Academy mentors together, and they went on missions together from time-to-time and is very well-coordinated with each other. They have their own code and strats together. One of their notable mission is Misson: Air Hitam, where they went on a mission to remove malware system found in some malfunctioned waste disposal bots. Bakar and Leon did not get along well with Bakar thinking Leon is a stuck-up and annoying, while Leon thinks Bakar is embarassing and annoying. Bakar and Karya are the troublemakers of the team. Even so, they grew as a team with Bakar listening and trusting Leon's plans whenever they are in a mission, and Leon using Bakar's strategy when facing Cinco.

Bakar was originally meant to be the main protagonist of the show, before it was changed to Ali. The idea was that he is a burger seller who communicated via secret codes compiled in his burger. Foodtruck Burger Bakar is his secret base. His character was later changed to be Ali's biological uncle.[1]
Bakar is shown to like eating burgers. This is shown in the early promotional arts, Ejen Ali Teaser Number One and MISSION: IRIS. In fact, the show's director, Usamah Zaid, had mentioned that he and the other co-creators had always imagined Bakar and intended him to be a spy disguised as a burger cook.
