Forster switched the screens, looking through different levels of the ship, and noticed that Specter's robot soldiers were awake, and stealing stuff in multiple areas around, and in different rooms on the ship.

"F***, he broke free alright," Forster explained. "And to make matters worse, he woke up Specter's army." "What would Metal Forster want with Specter's soldiers?" Ellie asked. "They might probably still be working together," Forster answered. "Either way, we need to get out of here, and stop this guy." The five then heard the door getting sealed shut, as soldiers from the other side were locking them in, by phasering the opened part of the door, making it closed.

Forster noticed through the periscope. "Damn it, they locked us in," Forster said. "Looks like I'll have to escape through the floor then." Forster pulled out Switch 03, which made the drill appear on his left leg. Forster then used the drill to make a hole entrance to the third floor of the ship, and once it was finished, Forster jumped in it.

A couple of Specter's guards noticed Forster, and charged at him, but he came prepared by pulling out Switch 20, and roasting them alive. Forster then pulled out Switch 04, to set up a video chat link with the others. Ellie noticed her phone turning on, and pulled it out to see the video chat with her boyfriend. "It's been a while since I used this Switch, but I need to find a way for us both to communicate," Forster said. "Now if you can hear me, I need you to watch Kathy, while I'm fighting these guards."

"By yourself?" Ellie asked. "Won't you die alone on this ship?" "I won't die," Forster answered. "Besides, I have E-V.A to assist me, that and I have the holographic communicator that the gunslinger gave us in the pocket of my jacket your wearing. Can you toss it to me?" Ellie pulled out the communicator from the right pocket of the jacket, and dropped it in the hole to the 3rd floor, where Forster was. Forster then turned on the communicator while he was in the hallway. The holographic image of both Valerie, and Drake came on the video. "Happy Halloween, Forster," Valerie said. "How are you doing?" "What are you two doing on this communicator?" Forster asked. "Where's your son?" "He's too disabled after last month to go anywhere," Drake answered.

"Great, stuck in a ship with a possessed security robot, and the one person that I need help from is crippled," Forster commented. "Don't be like that, we can come up, and help you," Valerie explained. "Oh sure," Forster explained. "Give our writer more work to do this month, by having him do another crossover early." "It's just going to be us," Drake said. "We're his O.C's. It's not like people care about us." "Fine, but I doubt you'll make it all the way up here without a rocket," Forster commented. "We have our ways," Valerie explained, and the message player turned off. "I can't tell if I'm saved or f***ed at this point," Forster said.
