- One: [about Four] Most of the time, he just blends into the background. You don't notice him until he speaks up or takes the last of the carrots.
- Six: He left his comm, he packed up his gear. Guys, I think it's pretty obvious, he wanted us to leave without him.
- Five: But why, he seemed happy here?
- Three: He seemed nothing. That guy was harder to read than that book you gave me.
- One: That book is a classic.
- Three: Whatever. The pig is a wimp and that spider's a know-it-all.
- One: You going after The General again? You went to a lot of trouble to find him. And you almost had him. So I'm wondering if something like that makes you reconsider. Or does it just make you more determined?
- Six: He made me complicit in the deaths of thousands and I wanted to kill him for it. Nothing else mattered. So I tracked him down and I got him. At least, I thought I got him. But you know what? It didn't make me feel any better. The anger was still there. Just shifted.
- One: What do you mean?
- Six: Alive, he was the target, the focus of my anger. But when I thought he was gone, well, there was only one person left to blame for all those deaths.
- One: He tricked you.
- Six: I let myself get played.
- One: You still haven't answered my question. Are you gonna go after him again?
- Six: Eventually. But I'll take my time, partly because I wanna make sure I get it right this time, but mostly because, for now, I need someone to hate beside myself.
- The Android: It's been brought to my attention that my behavior is sometimes unreasoned, atypical of android standard. Weird.
- Three: Yeah.
- The Android: Given your observations, how would you typify my behavior?
- Three: Weird about sums it up.
- One: Didn't we just have a conversation about honesty and trust and not keeping things from one another?
- Five: But it was personal information. It was up to Four to share it.
- One: Then why did you tell her?
- [Nods to Two]
- Five: Oh, well she knows everything.
- Three: Oh that's just great. Four's a prince.
- [Points to Six]
- Three: He's a terrorist, and we still haven't figured out your deal.
- [Points to one]
- The Android: I was finally able to make contact with the captain of that merchant freighter.
- One: Is Four on board?
- The Android: Not anymore. They dropped him off at a former mining colony, apparently on an isolated and rather lawless planet.
- Six: Why would he go there?
- The Android: According to the captain, his passenger offered very little in the way of conversation.
- Six: Sounds like our boy.
- The Android: In the event I'm unable to identify the issue, a full reboot may be the only recourse.
- Three: Sure, do what you gotta do.
- [Starts to leave]
- Three: Hang on a sec. What does that mean full reboot?
- The Android: You would delete my memory stores and current personality matrix.
- Three: No-no-no-no-no way.
- The Android: Then you're satisfied with my performance, despite my aberrant behavior?
- Three: Hell, no. But I'll be damned if I gotta start over with a whole other robot.
- [Leaves]
- The Android: That's kind of him to say.
- Three: Somebody gutted our memories, probably because they thought it would make it easier to handle us. Make it easier to turn us in.
- Two: One of us is a traitor.
- Three: You wanna play process-of-elimination?
- Two: After you.
- Three: Okay. Five. Computers and gadgets are her thing. Double-dealing and conspiracy not so much.
- Two: Six is a suspect in a mass murder. Innocent or not, that type of rap sheet doesn't offer much in the way of deal opportunities.
- Three: Four, he's got that weird nobility thing going on. He'd rather lop off his own arm off than dishonor himself by betraying us.
- Two: Which leaves us with three possibilities. You, me, or one.
