T-Tessa?
[Tessa] N! You remember m
[Coughing] Too tall. Handsome.
A-Air's toxic.
Who's this little-- [yelps]
Uzi. Why are you here, human?
- Real tired of killin' this one.
- Hmph.
Effective drones were cloned more.
- Ah, it is you. [chuckles]
- Classic J.
[Tessa] Cyn disappeared on Earth.
- Boss ran away.
- [Tessa] We mutually disengaged.
Her last known act was siccing you lot
on the human exoplanets.
Why?
That's what we're trying
to figure out, bozo.
[Tense music plays]
[Tessa] That's kind of a big piece.
[Upbeat music plays]
[grunting]
J, relay hand. Cyn's orders.
Step one: clear drop zone of life
and construct spire.
- Step two--
- [Tessa] Enter labs with this symbol.
Not too much to go off,
but if Cyn wants these labs,
we burn them down.
That KeyBug's our way in.
J, mind my ship.
Uh
Of course, boss.
[Sinister musical sting]
Why involve Doll?
What's happening to
Her?
[Tessa] She reckons the humans did
something to her folks down here.
Gave them a sickness she inherited.
And?
- [Sinister music]
- [Tessa] I think she's right.
- [Sinister music stops]
- Comin' or what?
[Grunts softly]
Is the secret elevator
Labeled?
[Tessa grunts softly]
[gags]
[Tessa] Riiiiight.
Might be some security
specifically against
You guys.
[Keys tapping]
Human-made security
this human can control.
[Chuckles]
Maybe.
Anything to screw Cyn's plan.
And for mom backstory.
- Right, dude?
- [Chuckles nervously] Y-Yeah.
Ooh. [chuckles]
[Tessa] Huh. Righty-o.
Sources say that wa-- [yelps]
Except I'm going this way,
so save me if you can, thanks!
[Beau giggling]
[giggling continues]
- Shoot the baby immediately?
- That's not soon enough!
[Beau giggling, cooing]
[all gasp]
[laughs] Heyya, surface slickers.
[All gasp]

- Huh?
[Tense music plays]
[groans]
[thud]
[blade rings]
[grunting]
[Alice] Sentinels picked at this one.
I try and not damage good parts.
Course, some parts are more valuable
than others, ain't they?
More valuable.
[Uzi] W-W-Whoa, hey.
Cut that thing up,
and you're gonna get a big creepy worm.
An improvement.
Nah, heat keeps 'em sluggish.
Ain't our first rodeo.
[Wet squelching]
Okay, that's enough of thi-i-is.
[Grunts] Huh?
[Laughs]
- Dealt with witches fore, too.
- [Grunts]
[chuckles]
Though, ain't seen 02
since she left us to die.
[Tense music builds]
- [Tessa grunting]
- [N, giggling]
[Tessa] Little buddy,
you're gonna get red and sad
if you try that with me.
[Yelps] It tickles!
Th-The bad version, though!
Doing great, dude.
[Tessa] N, whose side
Tried sawing there?
[Alice, over radio] Beau!
We've got Nori's kid here!
- Eh--
- [Uzi chomps, cackling]
[Alice] Need more sedatives.
Uh, it's bitey.
[Radio chirps]
- [keypad beeps]
- [door panel chirps]
[Tessa] Ugh, finally, the code.
Lordy.
Walk and talk?
[Grunts, spits]
How'd you know my mom?
Was she cool?
She didn't suck, did she?
Back to the others.
[Grunts]
Hey, you're a lot like her, I'll say.
Cept her yellow eyes.
Easy, creep. You've got the wrong--
[Groans softly]
- Nori, right?
- [Breathing heavily]
Sure thought killin' all them folks
was pretty slick.
[Groaning softly]
[voice glitching] Wait, stop.
Seriously
What What are you talking about?
- [Yelps]
- [fingertip clatters]
[dramatic musical sting]
[suspenseful music plays]
They've gotta be in there, right?
[Tessa] No worries, we'll save V.
And Uzi.
[Keys tapping]
[Tessa] Wanna take a gander
at Earth, N?
No, Tessa, we don't have time
Can't leave the office, idjit.
Can't get back in our rooms, neither.
[Sentinel chitters]
[gasps softly] Wait
Please
[Sentinels chittering, screeching]
[Sentinel roars]
[gasps, grunting]
[Tessa] We know it mutates
in damaged AI.
[Keys tapping]
It took Cyn as a host.
Then, it took everything.
The humans here
saw what was happening at home.
Thought they could understand it.
[Suspenseful music plays]
All they did was spread it.
Then, Uzi
Y-Y-You can fix her, right?
That's why you're here?
[Tessa] I'm here to find
which drones were infected.
When we get to the labs
and find that list,
I'll need you to choose the universe
over one little drone, N.
Before she's not herself anymore.
[Sentinel growling]
[suspenseful music plays]
[laughing]
[munching]
[whimpering]
[Tessa, wary] Hey, fella.
[Over-enunciating]
Me, human
Order you to
Be a nice dingo, please?
[Sentinel screeches]
Ah!
Bad, dingo! Bad, dingo!
[Sentinel chirping, growling]

I never did anything for--
V! Is Uzi--
- Hurt. We're leaving.
- [Tessa] I can take a squizz at--
You said you could
control the Sentinels.
[Tessa] I
At least they can't boot loop me!
- We'll just have to--
- Do whatever you want.
N?
[Tense, melancholy music plays]
[Tessa] It's okay, N.
I haven't been honest with V yet.
- What did she tell you?

Ow, my frickin' he-- N?

[coughing]
[mixed normal speech and Solver]
W-What the hell is going on?
[Tessa] Bugger, that's bad.
Come on, team.
[Both shout]
V, come on!
[Suspenseful music continues]
- Hey, um--
- No, no, no!
V, we need you!
Nah. Uzi
I trust you.
