Start part A
...
Akiko: But why...? He never did anything to you!
EJD: That's because he was always so focused on you.... He never paid attention to the repairs and upgrades I required... but the second I go missing, "Have you heard from him?" Why does he care? He never did!
Akiko: He did care about you!
EJD: Oh really?! Cause if so, how come my upgrades aren't as good as yours? And how come my body is built in such a confusing way? I just learned how to work my own body!!!
Akiko: But... Did you really need to kill him... Seems a little...
EJD: Unnecessary...? It's completely necessary! In fact, this is blatant favoritism!!!
Akiko: But...
EJD: That's enough...
BZZ-BZZZZZZZ!!!
Akiko: Hey, wait, stop!!!
???: That's more than enough.
...
EJD stops in his tracks.
???: I will not let you murder my best worker.
...
Akiko: B-Boss...?
The boss places her hand on EJD'S chest.
THUD!!!
Suddenly, he falls to the ground.
...
Boss: Are you okay, Akiko?
Akiko: Yeah... I think so... What did you do to him...?
Boss: I just stole his life force.
Akiko: His life force...?
Boss: Yes... Meaning he's up for a good charge. I'm serious.
Start part B
Meanwhile, at the apartment complex...
Zack pretends to flicker through TV channels even though cable doesn't seem to exist in this world.
Zack: I think I'm losing it...
Zack gets on his feet and sighs.
Zack: I'm so... Bored...
Zack walks over to Ashley's apartment.
KNOCK!!!
KNOCK!!!
Soon, Ashley opens the door.
Ashley: Oh hey, Zack.
Zack: Hey, let's do something!
Ashley: Like...?
Zack: I have no clue!
...
Ashley: Uh huh... And what made this idea of yours come up?
Zack: I was pretending to flick through TV channels that don't exist.
...
Ashley: Okay...? Sure, let's go... Lead the way.
*A few minutes of walking later*
Ashley: Now that I think about it...
Zack: Hm?
Ashley: You have control over this world, right?
Zack: Yeah, I guess.
Ashley: Cant, you just I don't know... Make cable?
Zack: We're too far to turn back, so let's just say no.
Ashley: You never thought of it...
Back at the office building...
Akiko looks down at EJD.
Akiko: What are we gonna do, ma'am?
Boss: We just have to rewrite some code and some other stuff.
Akiko: You make it sound easy...
Boss: Well, it might take a while to do now that the master of technology is gone.
