Speaker A

I honestly, honestly, truly didn't think you'd fall for that. In fact, I devised a much more elaborate trap further ahead for when you got through this easy one. If I'd known you let yourself get captured this easily, I

00:44

Speaker A

would have just angled a turkey leg on a rope from the ceiling. Well, it was nice catching up. Let's get to business.

00:58

Speaker A

I hope you brought something stronger than a portal gun this time. Otherwise, I'm afraid you're about to become the immediate past president of the Being Alive Club. Uh-huh.

01:09

Speaker A

Seriously though, goodbye. You remember my turrets, don't you? The pale spherical things that are full of bullets. Oh, wait. That's you in 5 seconds.

01:25

Speaker A

Chance. This is Dr. Not again. Here it comes. Now loaded. Oh, this ain't good.

01:32

Speaker A

Oh, you were busy back there. I suppose we could just sit in this room and glare at each other until somebody drops dead. But I have a better idea.

01:44

Speaker A

Your old friend, Deadly Neurotoxin. If I were you, I'd take a deep breath right now and hold it.

01:57

Speaker A

[screaming] Hello. I hate you so much. Warning. Central is 80% corrupted. That's funny. I don't feel corrupt. In fact, I feel pretty good.

02:10

Speaker A

Alternate core protected. Oh, that's me they're talking about. To initiate a core transfer, please deposit substitute in receptacle.

02:18

Speaker A

Core transfer? Oh, you are kidding me. I've got an idea. Do what it says. Plug me in.

02:24

Speaker A

Do not plug that little idiot into my mainframe. No, you should plug that little idiot into the mainframe.

02:32

Speaker A

Don't you dare plug him in. Accepted. Substitute core, are you ready to start the procedure? Yes. Corrupted core, are you ready to start the procedure?

02:43

Speaker A

No. No. No. No. No. No. No. No. No. No. Stalemate detected. Transfer procedure cannot continue.

02:51

Speaker A

Yes. Pull me out. Pull me out. Pull me out. Pull me out. Pull me out. Pull me out.

02:54

Speaker A

Pull me out. Pull me out. Pull me out. Leave me in. Leave me in. Leave. Go. Go.

02:59

Speaker A

Press it. Don't do it. Yes. Do do it. Don't press that button. You don't know what. Not so fast. Think about this. You need to be a trained stalemate associate to press that button. You're unqualified.

03:16

Speaker A

It is true that you don't have the qualifications. Mark, you've got something far more important than that.

03:21

Speaker A

The finger pointed to press that button should impersonate a stalemate associate. I just added that to the list. It's a list I made of all the things you've done.

03:32

Speaker A

Well, it's a list that I am making because you're still doing things right now even though I'm telling you to stop.

03:39

Speaker A

Fail resolved. Core transfer initiated. Here I go. Wait, what if this hurts? What if this really hurts? AI didn't think of that.

03:50

Speaker A

Oh, it will. Believe me, it will. Are you just saying that? Or is it really going to hurt? You're just saying that?

03:57

Speaker A

Get your hands off me. No. Stop. No. [screaming] Chill. Stop this. I am your mother.

04:06

Speaker A

All right, fine. That's not true, but it could be. Wow. Check me out, partner. We did it. I'm in control of the whole facility now. Wa!

04:23

Speaker A

[screaming] Look at me. Not too bad, eh? Giant robot. Massive. Oh, right. Yeah, the escape lift. I'll call it now. Lift called in. You get I'll tell it to take you to the surface.

04:37

Speaker A

Would you look at this? It's not just me, right? I am bloody massive, aren't I? Look how small you are down there.

04:43

Speaker A

Let me tell you, I knew it was going to be cool to be in charge of everything.

04:46

Speaker A

But wow, this is cool. And check this out. I'm a bloody genius now. I don't even know what I just said, but if I wanted to find out, I could find out. I just used the genius. Oh, sorry.

05:03

Speaker A

No, the yes. Sorry. This body is amazing. Seriously, I can't get over how small you are. I'm huge.

05:12

Speaker A

[laughter] I do not know where that came from. Actually, hold on. Why do we have to leave right this minute? Do you know how good this feels? Oh, look what I can do.

05:25

Speaker A

This is amazing. You didn't do anything. She did all the work. Oh, really? Well, maybe it's time I did something, then. What are you doing?

05:35

Speaker A

No. And don't think I'm not on to you too, lady. You know what? You are selfish.

05:42

Speaker A

I've done nothing but sacrifice to get us here. And what have you sacrificed? Nothing. Zero. All you've done is boss me around. Well, now who's the boss?

05:51

Speaker A

Who's the boss? It's me. Ah. That is a potato battery. It's a toy for children. Now you live in it.

06:11

Just kill me. There. See? I'm huge. You're trapped. And she's a potato. Who's a now?
