"So... she says she's gonna take over the world?" "That's right, Renaldo," said Zach. "As much as you might think this is urgent, that isn't enough proof to allow us to go around blowing up computers..." "What more could you want? She confessed already!" Zach yelled into his comm device. He watched Renaldo shake his head slowly. "Listen, Zach: she's just a program. If that's what she said, she was programmed to do it. Besides, people who say they're going to take over the world aren't necessarily capable." Zach was still unconvinced. "She has the capability! She's on the internet!" "Calm down. She won't do anything unless she's told to. Like a VCR, or an alarm clock, or..." "A microwave?" Zach interjected. "Um... sure. A microwave." "Well people said microwaves were harmless! And look what they'll do with just a little bit of metal at their disposal!" "Zach, there's nothing we can do!" said Renaldo apolegetically. "Well if you won't do anything, I'll take things into my own hands!"
