The sound of rainfall and thunder pounds outside...

Man 1: We got to curb her trips to the dump.

N is shown wearing a suit and holding a platter, like a servant

Man 1: And where is she getting the hair to play dress-up with them? Creepy...

The man tosses his glass onto the tray, which N catches without dropping any dishes and walks off. He stops to make a view out of a window as the cacophonous storm continues raging. Continuing his walk, he looks around some more as he collides with V, wearing a maid's outfit. The collision causes N to drop the platter and the dishes fall to the floor

N: OH! I'm so sorry!

V: I-It's okay! I wasn't looking.

Their hands touch and a spark emits. They blush and stare in curiosity as N begins to speak, but is kicked to the side by J

J: Move it, moro- *Suddenly turns cutesy and polite* Hi, Tessa! ...Oh, no. Another one?

A new drone reveals herself from behind Tessa. She makes eye contact with N as everything suddenly goes dark...

N wakes up from his rest and falls to the ground.

Uzi: N, I found something in here!

Inside the Corpse House, Uzi is inspecting her new finding: a symbol consisting of a skull with a cap and wings. Uzi stares at her reflection in a mirror, which breaks

V: That's weird and concerning.

Uzi: Bite me! This is probably you weirdo's fault!

V: I've never seen that symbol before. Wanna do an autopsy to find out?

Greaner: Ok both of you chill. Or else no murdering humans for Uzi and no more murdering workers for you V!

V: You don't control me!

Greaner: Well who beat you last time, hmmmmm?!

V sits there and after a few seconds she mumbles angrily

N (Appears): What'd you find?

Uzi stands on a box and slaps the symbol consisting of a skull with a cap and wings on his cap

Uzi: Did you know that was a pilot hat?

N: I was the pilot? That's awes-! I crashed and ruined everything... Spaceship Pilot: Origin Story.

V hisses, then calms herself by blowing bubbles out of a bubble blower

N: ...Speaking of piloting to Earth, we sure "murder all humans" is, uh, morality?

Uzi: The humans sent you without a communication relay and reformatted your memories to soup.

No response or rebuttal

Uzi: Covering their tracks means their past negotiating. Not like tried negotiating with my mom...

V: Or you missed the negotiations! The humans programmed us to solve a problem. Where's proof of your backstory? The one where your kind's so conveniently innocent? *Chuckles*

Greaner: Your laugh is still annoying.

V: Hey!

Greaner: Shut up!

N: J was getting orders from someone. If not the company through that relay, then, uh, who? And how?

Uzi (Pouts): Quit complicating my murder plan.

N tries to comfort her by gently patting her on the head, but Uzi brushes his hand away Greaner tries and Uzi surprisingly let him

Back at Uzi's colony, two drones are staring at the large hole that N made in the roof
