Thunder rolls throughout the night as the mansion looms over in the distance owned by the Elliots. "We've got to curb her trips to the dump" As he speaks he tosses his glass in the air for N ducked out in a dapper suit, catches it on his large plate full of dishes and walks off. When he reaches the library he hears something strange...music...It sounds like trumpets with a strange siren playing as the trumpets play. He realizes they're coming from the window outside, he peers out. At first he sees nothing but darkness and rain hitting the window. When he looks down he sees something...odd. A man, a Human man wearing a blue suit and tie. The man appeared old and frail, the darkness outside made it look like he was floating. in his hand he has a small briefcase. He turns his head up to stare at N. He stares for a moment until he straightens his tie, turns around and walks away. As he walks away the music playing slowly fades as well. N, unnerved by what he just saw, starts running away from the window only to knock into someone else carrying a plate of dishes. The contents spill as they shatter to the floor. "Oh! I'm so sorry!" N speaks sadly looking to see it was V, dressed in a maids outfit wearing glasses. "I-it's okay I wasn't looking." They both kneel down to pick up the broken dishes only for their hands to meet and sparks to fly. They stare at each other visibly blushing. (Author's Note: Liam, why the fuck did you set up this romance only for you to scrap it an episode later? That ain't how you write a romantic subplot buddy.) Before N could say anything he's kicked to the side by J, also wearing a maids outfit. "Move it, mor-Hiiii Tessa." Her tone changes completely when she notices Tessa standing over there, someone peeking from behind her. "Oh-no, not another one" The small worker drone peeks from behind Tessa, however before anything else could happen N wakes from his dream sleeping on the ceiling. He falls into the snow. When he gets up he sees Gordon sitting away from him playing with the lighter he found. Gordon is still distraught at what he saw. When he finally arrived at the pod, yesterday the sun was coming up and Uzi was watching the sunrise while N was hiding in the pod. "I'd go and join you if the sun didn't kill me. What are you doing?" Uzi turned with a malevolent grin on her face. "Just plotting revenge for the destruction of the entire human race, classic rogue ai stuff. I hope they're sitting pretty on earth. Because we're coming for them." Gordon watches as Uzi begins to laugh wickedly as she does, her visor glitches showing off lines of code and a symbol. Gordon is shocked, a symbol? Wait, THE symbol. The symbol that caused Gordon to wake up in this dystopian exoplanet. Gordon backs away slowly from Uzi as she turns to him still chuckling to herself. "What? She asks, as if she didn't just say she's gonna destroy Gordons entire race." Gordon just stared concerningly at her, shaking his head slowly. Uzi frowns at him "Bite Me!" She lashes out and walks back into the pod.
