4.03 What's love got to do with it? (<--what's the title got to do with the episode?) typed by :glitch007 last modified:Oct 31/2001 Scene opens with a room within the supercomputer, the time is around Bob's cadet days. A virus called 'kilobyte' is shown to be contained Dixen (Bob's partner):One more virus for the deletion chamber Bob:He can hear you! Dixen(mocking):So? Hey, kilobyte, ready for oblivion? B:Do you have to be so ??calis?? D:It's a virus, cadet, a dirty no use virus! B:Look, you don't know his story, what made him this way or how he-- D:A user made him this way! A user programmed him to destroy, to infect, to corrupt. Why a user does such a thing is beyond our capacity to understand, so ,eh, there's no point trying. **presses the computer** B:I don't beleive a user would knowingly release a virus on the net. D:Why, I 4got who I was talking to. I suppose you made a readme on the psyche of users. B:Well, actually I-- D:You're never gonna pass the finals, kid. B:What? D:Guardians are here are to mend and defend ok? Not sit around trying to work out the way user thinks and why viruses are introduced into systems. **Kb growls a little** Shish, I'm glad prime guardian has never seen any of your works B:I had a meeting with Turbo just last second **Kb is getting restless** He thought my ideas to reprogram the viruses for the good were radical. D:'Radical'? Uhh, he used the word 'radical' and you think-- **Sonar beep** D:What the? **the virus breaks free, alarm** **virus screams** D:Glitch, pass me through central, we have a 4.03 (**the episode number**) in progress B:4.03? A viral upgrade?**Bob tries to attack the virus head on** D:BOB! NO! **The virus flings him away effortlessly, Bob screams and lands on his back, then flips forward and hits his head on the floor** **virus approaches Dixen** D(talks into glitch):Upgrade skipping a generation, has the ability to fly, transfinite power reserves, infection rating of-- **Kb is about to grab her, she jumps off the wall and onto Kb's back** D:Glitch--narrow beam **a ball of light appears on Kb's forehead, Kb flips Dixen off his back and she lies helplessly on the floor** **Kb approaches Dixen, claws extend, Kb yells and deletes most of Dixen, she is thrown against the wall** **Kb walks towards Bob, but then he transforms into Gigabyte** Gb:I AM GIGABYTE!!! **he dissappears** Present-->Game cube in Mainframe **Matrix is a wrestler, and he's beating the..ahem... out of the user** **announcer talks in the background** Matrix:ANDRAIA!!! **voice echoes** The supercomputer-->in Daemon's throne room **Andraia is just sitting there looking blue, I mean feeling blue** Daemon:Why do you look so sad Andraia? An:Oh, my lady. I--I didn't hear you. D:You are thinking of another An:Yes, Matrix..we've never been apart. I feel lost. D:Let me help ** she puts her hand on Andraia's neck and the infection glows on the temple** You should go to him. An:I'm sure he feels the same way, but I'm not worried.. Love conquers all boundaries D:Are you sure? An:I'm counting on it Principle Office-->a prison cell, Turbo is being detained **Bars slide shut by 2 guards, Mouse walks into the scene** Mouse:There. that should hold ya Turbo:For a while? Yes. **he smiles** M:I hate the way he keeps smiling at us. T:I have heard the word, I am at peace. Ray has heard the word too, Mouse. M:What did you say? T:The surfer, he waits for you with my lady. All you have to do is drop the firewall and he will fall into your arms Dot(just entering the prison):Can it, Turbo! M:Daemon's got Ray. Dot:You've only got his word for that? M:and Andraia! D:Mouse, I know M:Well, we have got to DO something! D:Mouse, please, we need to talk to Turbo now. M:Talking ain't gonna get us our friends back! **she pushes Bob and Dot aside and leaves** Bob:Mouse! D:Let her go, Bob...I'll deal w/her later Turbo:Bob? It's true, you are one w/your keytool. You are my lady's messenger! Bob:messenger? T:You were right, Bob. There are benign viruses-viruses that are good. This proves all of your theories Dot(to guard):He is secure isn't he, you took his keytool? Bob:Copeland, his keytool is called Copeland. Guard:Ma'am, Mouse gave him a thorough search and I mean thorough. He didn't have a Copeland. Bob:That's impossible, when a keytool joins with a guardian, they--we exchange code. Copeland must be w/him or Turbo is incomplete T:Bob, you are the only complete guardian. You are the messenger, when my lady has you everyone will hear the word. D:Well, I've heard quite enough, do it! **Bob emits a yellow beam from his icon into Turbo** T:No! My lady! The wooooooord! **Bob runs out of energy...again and fades a bit, Turbo falls** D:U ok? B:Yeah, is Turbo cured? T:not..entirely, but I can fight her control now B:Turbo, what is Daemon's function? T:To bring unity to the entire net. B:Unity? First time I've heard it called that. D:Why is Bob Daemon's messenger? T:As Daemon's infection grew out, keytools left us. Bob is now the only guardian who can create portals D:So she can't use the guardians to get into the closed or offline systems, Bob, she needs you to complete her function T:and she'll get ya, nothing can stop her. D:Oh I wouldn't bet on that Some room in the supercomputer, the infected guardians are trying to hack the firewall using a device similar to the one Megabyte used to break into Phong's mind **beep beep, red light with Mouse's signature** an infected guardian:go to level 7**beep**...by 8**beep** **Hologram pops up with the 2nd in command** infected guardian:Daycan! Daycan:You should've hacked into that system seconds ago. Guardian:We're already at level 8, we never had to pass 3 before this. There's no way through. D:That is not good enough, our lady has a schedule to keep, I cannot accept failure **Guardian looks really worried** Mainframe Computer:Game over. **Matrix yells and changes his icon to games sprite icon** Principle office -->the lab where Mouse added in the game sprite function into Enzo's icon (Ep:Game over) **Hex is playing with nulls** Dot:She's a what? (referring to Hexadecimal) Phong:A sprite D:Not a virus? Ph:No. D:How? **a vidwindow on hex's wireframe is in front of Phong** Ph:When the user did a viral scan of Mainframe, Hex was unaffected. Hex:It tickled. Ph:We naturally thought it is Hex, go figure. Dot:So what's changed? Ph:Her power, it is really quite simple, her icon held the viral scan, but her power levels were too strong for it to work. Dot(continuing):and when she repelled the guardians, Ph:she drained herself enough for the scan to trigger, she used the nulls to try to protect herself D:But the nulls fled when the game landed. Ph:and bingo!, new hex. **Hex tries to stack up some nulls inside the incubator thing, but they fall** D:I thought you said you lost your powers. H:I have D:Then, how are you doing that? H(not paying much attention to Dot):Oh! D:Come on! **Dot drags Hex towards the door** Bob(just enters the lab):Hi! Hex:Hi Bob! **Vidwindow with Mouse and Matrix appear behind Dot and Hex** Mouse:Dot? We've got an idea. D:Not now Mouse. Matrix:We have to talk! D:Later! **Vidwindow closes** **Vidwindow with Cecil and Little Matrix appear** **Enzo jumps onto Cecil while he says this** Cecil:I must protest most strongly. I am many things, but I am not **holds up Enzo** a nanny! Dot(to Enzo):I told you to change outta those clothes! Enzo:No! **Vidowindow with Specks-the one eyed nerd binome opens** Specks:Uhhm Sir Ma'am Dot:Not now, Specky! **Dot closes window** Dot:Phong, talk to Enzo Enzo:That's Little Matrix! **Dot closes window** Dot:Hex, you're with me, Bob where's your car? B:Just outside. D:I'm borrowing it! Ph:But where are you going? Dot(walking out):To find my father! **door closes** Ph(to Bob):Well, just slip out of your uniform and hop on the scanner. I'll be with you in a nano Bob:I'm sorry? Ph:Bob, we need to run a full compile on u. B(trying to avoid it):No, no, I'm fine! Look, haven't you got to talk to Enzo? I'll come back when you're not busy. Ph:On the scanner! It's doctor's orders! Supercomputer-->Daemon's throne room pendullum swings **Andraia is on the floor while daemon is on he throne** An:**chuckles** oh, you should've seen us fight that first game together, he was so brave. He said he was a guardian, showing to impress the girl. I knew he wasn't a guardian, of course, I could hear everything they said...but I didn't care, I was in love. It was love at first sight D:You are so lucky. I am not programmed for this type of love..and I can never go against my code. **Daycan walks in and bows down b4 Daemon** Daemon:Daycan, do you love me? Day:Why, of course my lady. We all love you, you are the word. An:It's not the same thing **Daycan gets up** Day:I have bad news, my lady. We cannot crack the encryption codes on the firewalls that block our path into Mainframe An:That'll be Mouse, she's very good Daemon:Mainframe has a hacker working for them? Day:and a virus, this system is remarkable. Daemon:But, my messenger must hear the word. Time is running out Day:I have...failed you my lady. Daemon:Code 101 (which is his death sentence) Day:101100111001, oh **His staff falls and Daemon absorbs him** Daemon(to An):Tell me more, tell me what it feels like to be in love **Andraia smiles** Back in Mainframe **Dot uses Bob's car to get to Lost Angles (which was a part of the twin city)** Hex:Well this is nice, so you and Bob are.... Dot:Just friends! Hex:Ok, just checking. I've always had a little thing for Bob and I... I didn't want to get in the way if you were-- Dot:We're just friends! Hex:Good. At Lost Angles **Hack and Slash are still looking for Nibbles** Hack and slash: Heh, that wasn't Nibbles, I do not like a ??lay?? **Hex gathers nulls into a pile** Dot:Dad, it's me, Dot can you hear me? **nulls scatter** Dot:Hex! Hex:It's not working, oh give it up! Dot:We're talking about my father, would you give up [if it was your father]? Hex:I was born in the explosion that created Lost Angles, an explosion doesn't usually display the best parenting skills D:Hex, just try again **she realizes something** What did you just say? Flashback-->Twin City principle office **Welman is conducting his experiment** W:System detected, executing gateway command. **portal spins like a coin** **sparks fly out from the laptop on the lectern** **Gigabyte appears from the portal** Gb:I have become Gigabyte, destroyer of systems!! **portal splits Gb into 2 halves** **Silhouettes of Hex and Megabyte appear** **explosion** **tears and torn buildings are seen in the twin city** **Megabyte faces one way, Hex faces another, Mb looks at Hex and walks off** Hex:I like it here! (that's why Lost Angles, or a broken part twin city, became her home) **siren** Present-->Same location Dot:Dad didn't destroy the twin city, all this time I thought-- Hex:In a strange way, your father saved my life or rather gave me life. I'll try again...sister **nulls are piled up, nibbles approaches the pile of nulls** H&S:Oh there he is, nibbles! **nulls form the shape of a sprite, nibbles is in the 'head' position** Hex:ta-da (again) **Dot removes her glasses in disbelief** D:Dad! You're back W:Yes, sort of...I missed you so much **Dot approaches the pile of nulls** W:No! You cannot touch me, the nulls! D:Oh dad. Principle office-->The picture room where the reboot team got ready to fight nullzilla **Phong is sitting at his desk, Enzo on the other side** **They are staring at the Newton's cradle, which is a thing with 5 metal balls, the outer balls going back and forth** Enzo(bored stiff):Are we done? Ph:Well, us, Enzo E:Matrix! Ph:right, right Matrix, well this has been a nice little chat E:Are we done? Ph:Done? Yes, but-- E:See ya! **Bob walks in and looks at Enzo leaving** B:Phong you wanted to see me? Ph:Ahh Bob, please take a seat. **Bob sits** Ph (hands Bob a card that psychologists use):What do you make of this? Bob:Oh, uh that's easy, it's Dot with that haircut she used to have when we first met and she's smiling **the card shows a silhouette of something similar** Ph:OH!! oh I see it now! **Bob takes a flask containing a yellow chemical and examins it** Ph:My son, I've been going over your scans and I'm afraid that there is something terribly wrong Bob(already knows):Merging w/glitch didn't work Ph:**gasps**So you know? B:Yeah, glitch was damaged, we both knew the risk, but it was the only way Ph:Do you also know that continued use of your glitch powers will result in total fragmentation? B:I'm a guardian, I can't go against my code. Ph:Dot will never allow you to-- B:and that's why we're not gonna tell Dot. **alarm blares** Ph:what in the net? B:What is it? Ph:Bob, we're online! **Mouse and Matrix are going to supercomputer** **firewall opens, ship goes to the net, firewall closes** A meeting room within the principle office **A circular table is seen in the middle, Welman, Dot and Phong are there in the room, Turbo is in his cell as seen through a vidwindow** Ph:Mouse is outside the firewall Dot:and she has all the encryption codes Bob:Mouse will never give them up to Daemon Turbo:Mouse will give up the code if she's infected, she'll do it willingly, that's how the infection works D:This is my fault, I should've guessed Matrix would try something like this B:I can port after them, bring them back D:That's not an option. Look if anyone can pull this off, its those two T:and if they can't find Andraia and Ray? D:Matrix will go for the kill, he'll try and take out Daemon-he has a problem with viruses B:That's putting it mildly D:Bob, can you form a portal that could evacuate the entire city? Ph:No! no, that is beyond Bob's current power limits D:I thought so..Dad, I need you to construct your gateway machine again W:But, it destroyed an entire city D:I don't believe it did. Phong? help him. Bob, if we're going to defeat Daemon, we need a cure for her infection, find out why your code didn't work. Turbo? You're going to tell me all about Daemon, anything, everything you can remember. There are 2 things I know for sure: We're running out of time and you can never trust a virus. Supercomputer Daemon's throne room **Matrix points his gun at what appears to be Daemon** **His eyeball spins and target is being placed** Matrix: Gun:Command Line, targeting, hi x **The M target zooms out and lights come on, it appears that Matrix was unknowingly aiming at Andraia** An:Hi lover. Matrix:Andraia! **They both run to each other** An:I missed you Matrix:I'll never leave you again, never! An:There's someone you've got to meet Matrix:We gotta get outta here An:My lady **Daemon is floating in the air** D:Hello Matrix, I've heard so much about you **Matrix shoots at her** **slow motion...** **the bullet says DAEMON on it** **it stops in front of her face** **she holds the bullet with her fingers and it explodes, no effect** D:Your weapon is useless here **flies down** **Mouse attempts to cut her head off but her sword breaks in half, not even a hair was broken** **Daemon lands and infects Matrix and Mouse** Matrix:My lady An:Welcome home, lover Daemon:So love conquers all boundaries **turns to Mouse** hello Mouse:My lady, I'm so sorry, can you forgive me? Mike(oh no!):Matrix, Mouse, hey good to see ya. Oh glory, we are reunited and it feels so good Daemon:Mouse? the hacker? Mouse:Yes my lady Daemon:Your encryptions are beautiful, works of art. **she touches mouse's face** Principle office-->Control room Dot:Net, on screen now! **screen shows the sprawl of green lights** Prison Turbo:You have to find a way to destroy her! Bob:You, better than any sprite, know how I feel about that T:Bob, this isn't the time for your theories, this isn't a small sealed system that your talking about, it's the entire net. Face it mainframe was an experiment that didn't work. B:Didn't work? Have you seen Hexadecimal? She's cured T:And Megabyte? B:I kept him contained, in time, I could've reprogrammed him. I still believe he could've been turned T:**laughs** your faith is astonishing after what his genesis did to Mainframe's twin city? After what he did to your partner? **Bob flashes back** Past<--The room at the beginning of the episode B:Just hang on Dixen, HELP! I NEED HELP IN HERE! **Dixen fades** D:Too late cadet B:Dixen please, don't **glitch beeps and downloads her code into itself** B:No, glitch stop **Dixen is deleted** B:NOOO!!! **glitch hovers in the air and then attaches to Bob's arm** **glitch exchanges code with Bob** B:glitch:system scan, track and lock on Kilobyte In the wrecked Mainframe or twin city, not sure which one **ambulances hover around** **Dot arrives at the scene** Enzo:Where's dad, sis? Where is he? Dot:I, I don't know! Enzo:Dad! **cries in Dot's arms** **Bob walks out of a portal into Mainframe** **Portal shuts behind him** Bob:Glitch:mend. **it mends 2 tears** **he sees Dot, who takes off her glasses** Bob:I'm a cadet, I mean...I'm a guardian, I come from the net Dot:The net? Bob:yes from another system, a supercomputer. **He looks around** I'm so terribly sorry Dot:You caused this? Bob:No! Dot:**pounds Bob's chest** You did! this is your fault **cries** Bob:No, I came to help, please I just wanna help **Turbo steps into Mainframe with 2 others with him** Turbo:Bob, are you ok? Present<--jailroom Turbo:Bob, are you ok? Bob:Yeah, jsut remembering the first time I came to mainframe. I can't believe how much its changed since then Turbo:Yeah the net's increased exponentially, it's becoming impossible to police. In a strange way, Daemon is right Bob:What? T:She's trying to bring order to chaos, now isn't that our prime function B:She wants unity, one voice, one way, the web is supposed to be varied, diverse T:Maybe it's too diverse **points to his temple** B:That's the virus talking, you've got to keep fighting it T:**grunts**I'm trying, Why didn't your code cure me, Bob, why? -end--
