   Worker Drones are autonomous robots created to help their parent company, JCJenson, mine exoplanets for resources, which Uzi Doorman describes as "being mistreated in the name of Windex." After the extinction of biological life on Copper 9, the Worker Drones that were stranded on said planet started a society of their own. When first created by JCJenson to mine resources from exoplanets before Copper 9's explosion, all Worker Drones wore hard hats and orange jackets, with their only eye color being light blue. Following the core explosion of exoplanet Copper 9, all humans on the planet were wiped out, turning it into a winter-apocalyptic wasteland. Seizing this opportunity, the Worker Drones quickly picked up where the humans had left off, formed their own colonies, and embraced this newfound freedom by wearing human-like clothing and having different eye colors. Known colors they can have are red, orange, green, blue, cyan, aqua, magenta, pink, purple, and white. When a Worker Drone feels fear, shock, or other intense emotion, their eyes become hollow with a black circle overlaying the normally fully-colored eyes. A key trait to notice about the Worker Drones' eye colors is the total absence of yellow. This trait was thought to belong solely to the Disassembly Drones until it was revealed that they were once Worker Drones themselves and that their yellow eye color originates from the Zombie Drone, Cyn. After 'banishing' herself from the colony, Uzi rants about how she wants to kill all humans on Earth in retribution for sending the Disassembly Drones to kill them all. While doing so, her right eye turns yellow while her left eye turns into a yellow hazard symbol hinting at the presence of the Absolute Solver. Worker Drones contain a large amount oil that they use for internal cooling. Although the oil from Worker Drones is warm from cooling them, it is still cooler than Disassembly Drones which is why they are hunted to cool themselves from overheating. It is also shown that Worker Drone oil from corpses when left alone can freeze solid in the icy temperatures of Copper 9. Worker Drones that are male typically have no hair, though there are certain exceptions like N and Thad. By contrast, all Worker Drones who are female seem to have hair. This hair comes in various different styles and colors. Although unknown for Drones on other planets, the Drones of Copper 9 have "borrowed"(stole) their hair from the now-dead humans of the planet, along with any unique clothing items. As it is not actually their hair, it is possible for a Drone to remove their own hair like an accessory. The clothes they wear are purely for fashion, to help differentiating between Drones, play up their eerie human qualities, or because they "looked neat", as Drones do not get cold or suffer from being in cold temperatures. Worker Drones wear their characteristic hard hats regardless of whether they have hair or not, though female Drones tend to wear them higher up to make room for their hair. The Copper 9 Drones also still wear hard hats but they accessorize with different colors of hard hat, wear other hats over their hard hats, or make a holes in their hard hat to let part of their hair through. The seemingly only exception is Uzi who wears a beanie instead, though in "PILOT" when adjusting it the beanie makes a metallic 'clunk' sound - meaning either she has a hard hat underneath it, the beanie is actually a hard hat that looks like a beanie, or the sound was from her arms. Worker Drone heights vary, though are usually shorter than a human, as seen in "Home" and "Mass Destruction". Adult Drones tend to be taller than teenage Drones, though teenagers drones have been shown to range from 4'2ft to 5'2ft as seen by the missing posters in "The Promening". Worker Drones are very much identical in terms of their body proportions and shape and how they are designed, with their main differentiating features being what accessories they wear and have, such as their eye color, hair and clothes. "Absolute End" reveals that some Worker Drones, or at least the child/teenager Drones born from Untrained Neural Networks on Copper 9, have a "parental advisory" filter that censors harmful language such as Uzi's blurring out Nori's writing swears. Worker Drones have a basic, limited sentience needed to perform tasks. However, they also have an "adaptive AI" which they use to keep themselves alive in various circumstances, such as in how to move or brace themselves without falling over. Once Copper 9's Core Collapse wiped out humanity on the planet and stranded the Drones, their AI prioritized self-preservation and lead to them developing emotions and creating a mirror of human society due to being what they were familiar with and the ruins of human civilization. Drones on Earth only had this basic sentience, while the Drones found by Tessa Elliott were damaged enough that their adaptive AI took over. In addition, if Worker Drones are taken care of and treated as human, their AI will grow in that direction. This adaptive AI seems to also extend into physical mimicry instead of just social mimicry and basic movement, as Uzi was able to perform impressive acrobatics and fighting stance in "Pilot" by what she claims to be pirating large amounts of anime. Presumably due to their jobs as manual labor, Worker Drones typically have the strength of industrial machinery that can "squeeze the life out of somebody", shown by Uzi's PowerPoint in "Pilot" showcasing Worker Drones carrying minecarts of ore and dirt as large as their body above their heads, and in "Heartbeat" when Uzi crushed and bent an industrial wrench with a single hand with causal ease like it was a soda can.

   Disassembly Drones, widely referred to as Murder Drones by the Worker Drones in Outpost 3, are the titular antagonistic faction of Murder Drones. Disassembly Drones are vicious robots that were once Worker Drones until they were converted into new deadlier forms by the self-rebooted Zombie Drone named Cyn, who is under the control of a mysterious, eldritch program known as the Absolute Solver. Once the servants of Elliott Manor like Cyn herself, they were taken over by her and converted into her "murder pets" to unleash upon the humans living on Earth, reprogrammed and given the desire to feast upon their flesh and slaughter by any means necessary to aid Cyn in destroying humanity. However, after Cyn succeeded in destroying the Earth, she wiped the Disassembly Drones' memories and implanted false ones to make them forget they were ever Worker Drones in the first place. These new memories were that the Disassembly Drones were sent by JCJenson to kill all of the Worker Drones living on the exoplanets by order of the company due to the belief that they were "corrupted, runaway AI." In reality (as shown in Nori Doorman's drawings), this was done to both wipe out hosts of the Absolute Solver such as Nori and Yeva cured by the Crucifix Patch so they couldn't use the Solver against her, and also get access to Cabin Fever Labs, find the Crucifix Patch, and destroy it. Additionally, the Disassembly Drones were to build a spire out of Worker Drone corpses, which seems to aid her plan in consuming the planet, possibly for material consumption. After executing these directives, the Absolute Solver will have no obstacles and will turn the core of Copper 9 into a singularity, devouring the exoplanet from the inside out. To ensure that the Disassembly Drones complete their directive, Cyn appears to have either threatened or coerced some of them so as to make sure they finished their job on Copper-9, with V having had a deal of some kind with the Absolute Solver that she and N could leave in peace when they finished their job. J also seems to have been possibly threatened in some way, as she does not believe escaping the solver is possible, since it can rebuild them, wipe their memories, and send them back to finish the job. Additionally, she seems to have some kind of method of deleting memories through an internal program, possibly to keep the Disassembly Drones from being motivated to stop her in any way, though this ability can be blocked by another solver user with sufficient skill. Although it's unknown exactly how many Disassembly Drones exist, they seem to be sent to their targets in landing pods in squads of three, with N's in "PILOT" implying that a squad was assigned and responsible for hunting in their own city or similar populated area. The landing pods are actually refurbished spaceships, but Disassembly Drones are not taught to land their ships, causing their ships to crash and be destroyed, and the Disassembly Drones to become stranded on their target planets. So far, the only known Disassembly Drones are the three "pets" of Tessa Elliott, whom she salvaged and rebooted: Serial Designation N, V, and J. In the meantime, the other squads were sent to Copper 9, but were slaughtered by the Anti-Drone Sentinels guarding the Cabin Fever Labs, with some had their cores sealed by Alice within the same labs, seemingly alive but otherwise immobile. Disassembly Drones are physically similar to Worker Drones, having a white coloration with a black screen on the top half of their face, a black waist, and hands with four fingers. However, Disassembly Drones are half a head taller than them and have white arms with wider forearms that end with yellow and black stripes. On their head is a black headband with five round yellow lights which contains Nanite Acid and functions as another set of "eyes." In their mouth is a dark gray tongue and retractable fangs. All Disassembly Drones also have a long black tail that ends in a large syringe, also containing the Nanite acid. Males have flared, boot-like lower legs with flat feet, which have yellow-and-black hazard stripes at the bottom, giving the appearance of traditional shoe soles and heels. Females feature wide hips and peg-like shins that taper to a sharp point, Black leg markings mimic the appearance of thigh-high stockings, ending in yellow-and-black hazard stripes at the tips. Almost all Disassembly Drones are observed to have white or silver-colored hair (with the lone exception being a black-haired drone seen at 4:14 in "Dead End"), while their eyes are neon yellow, akin to that of Cyn's, and they wear black short-sleeved clothes and a yellow armband on their left upper arm. Disassembly Drones' serial number begin with a letter to indicate which series of Drone they are, and as such there are multiple versions of that Drone in that series - for example there being multiple Ns - which would act and look very similar to one another barring different modifications.

   Zombie Drones are a variant of Worker Drones that self-rebooted due to said drones' hardware being incompletely disassembled or purged, allowing them to come back from the death of their software. They were first mentioned in "Cabin Fever" when Serial Designation N finds a VHS tape, marked "ZOMBIE DRONES!!!", made to explain the concept of Zombie Drones to JCJenson employees. The cover also reads "DO NOT SHOW TO ROBOTS, THEY WILL NOT LIKE IT." Generally, nothing except their behavior and abilities change, just the title.

   Uzi Doorman, more commonly referred to as Uzi, is the main protagonist of Murder Drones. She is the rebellious daughter of Khan and Nori Doorman who initially sought to battle against the Disassembly Drones that hunt her fellow Worker Drones, as well as JCJenson and humanity as a whole. Eventually, she forms a friendship with a Disassembly Drone named Serial Designation N (which later develops into a romantic relationship), with the two working together to learn more about the Absolute Solver, an immensely powerful Eldritch intelligence that affects her. Following the events of "Absolute End", Uzi succeeded in destroying Cyn's heart and prevented the Solver from taking back her form by swallowing her singularity core of the Solver. This action caused the melded form of Tessa's corpse and Cyn's drone body to collapse into oil and blood, but it inadvertently made Uzi the Solver's new host, which let her inherit the abilities of her late predecessor. Unlike Cyn, Uzi still retained her personality and was not fully overtaken by the Absolute Solver, the Solver now only shown to manifest through her tail. Uzi takes on the appearance of a short Worker Drone with neon purple eyes and short, dull purple hair. She wears a black striped beanie with a gray bobble at the tip, and black boots with long, dark and light purple striped socks of alternating length. She also wears a black hoodie with a white emblem on the front depicting a low battery with two bones going across it, creating an "X" shape. The bottom of the hoodie has two white stripes wrapping around it, and the left sleeve has a white Secchi disk symbol on it. The hoodie also has black fur around the bottom and the collar. She also has a black choker around her neck with a skull and the number "002" on it. Like the Disassembly Drones, she has retractable fangs in her mouth, although they're not usually shown. In "The Promening", she is seen wearing a short, strapless dark purple dress given to her by her father, who sourced it from a deceased human skeleton he found, along with her normal black laced boots. She also wears long dark purple gloves that are a lighter shade of purple than her dress. In "Cabin Fever", she is wearing a large backpack with bat wings on both sides before her Absolute Solver transformation. In her Solver form, her eyes are replaced with an Absolute Solver symbol or the symbol "X", like Disassembly Drones in their violent state. She also grows several jagged teeth, gains large, bat-like wings with claws, and a tail with a raptor-like head and purple glowing eyes. Eventually, as seen in "Dead End", she gained control over this form. After assimilating the Solver within her, Uzi's eyes shift to an orange-purple gradient. Her left wing is now white and yellow, the same color as Cyn's wings. While her tail remains relatively the same, the Absolute Solver is now capable of possessing it (and only it), so whenever it does take control of it, its eye color changes from purple to yellow. Uzi also sprouts three tentacles from her back, which she can retract and summon at will. In the music video for "Fight 'Till I'm Good Enough", Uzi wakes up in her pajamas: a short-sleeved, dark purple shirt with a drawing of a square robot head in white with pink accents. Under this shirt, she wears a another thick, long sleeve shirt with purple and white stripes. On her head, she wears a black cartoonish sleeping hat. Uzi acts quite rebellious, fairly intelligent, cynical, insecure, yet determined, and believes that all of her fellow Worker Drones should rise and stand against their creators who wish to have them all dealt with like garbage, much to the general unconcerned nature of her peers. She has been described by Liam Vickers as a "little devious twerp." Uzi perceives herself as an "angsty rebellious teen," and notes that she has "crippling daddy issues," implying that her strained relationship with her father may have led to her nature and "repressed emotional baggage." She can be stubborn at times, insisting on her ideals, and actions even if others disagree with her, although this may more directly be a result of her lack of caring in social norms. Despite her emotional issues, Uzi's intelligence seems above that of her fellow workers, seeing as she built a railgun that can produce enough power to destroy a Disassembly Drone from scratch. However, following her self-exile from her colony, she begins to develop paranoia as a bizarre symbol starts appearing in her eye causing windows and mirrors to crack whenever she looks in them, leaving her unsettled. Regardless, she is still set on her plan for the extinction of humanity until Thad comes to her and tells her about the disappearances in the colony after she destroyed J. Despite her dislike of her people, she chooses to return upon the realization that J may have survived the blast and comes upon a mysterious clue with something called the "Absolute Solver," further provoking her paranoia. After barely escaping from Eldritch J, Uzi is outright traumatized, reacting fearfully to physical contact from N, and becoming more obsessive in her research into the Absolute Solver. Though as she encounters more and more dire situations, she manages to overcome them, and become more selfless as a result, and even more willing to step into the line of fire. Following the events of "Heartbeat", "The Promening", and "Home", Uzi appears to have reconciled with her father, no longer ignoring him and willing to hear him out when he talks about Nori, even if only somewhat. She even develops an intimate relationship with Serial Designation N over the course of the series, displaying jealousy over other campers hanging out with him at Camp 98.7, and this proves to be her breaking point, releasing her Solver Form in a fit of insanity. This is eventually resolved with a heart-to-heart with N, where she revealed that she fears being forgotten and being left alone. After the final fight with Cyn in "Absolute End", she has ultimately acclimated to the colony, and claims that she "doesn't totally hate it," even garnering some respect from her classmates (in addition to direct support from her now-established boyfriend, N, and her friend, Thad). However, she is still prone to impulsive action, such as when she releases her Solver form to show her class, much to their shock. As of "Fight Til' I'm Good Enough", she seems to have become a lot more courageous and confident thanks to N and V, pulling pranks on the colony with them. Despite this, she's shown to be highly defensive of it, as once her tail begins the zombie prank, she, as well as N, V, and Sparky start taking down the zombified drones. She also makes an attempt to save Thad once he gets infected and buried under rubble. She also seems to be aware of N's fear of failing her: when N starts panicking while fighting the giant zombie Sparky, the note Khan had written flies in front of him; Uzi then eats it, giving N a thumbs up afterwards.

   Serial Designation N-0X0010010, or simply known as N, is the deuteragonist of Murder Drones. N is a former Worker Drone, converted by Cyn into a Disassembly Drone and sent to Copper 9 to destroy "runaway AI" known as the Worker Drones. Eventually, he declared a friendship (which eventually turned into a romantic relationship) with Uzi Doorman who wants to rebel against the company and humanity until the two discovered the Absolute Solver, an immensely powerful eldritch intelligence that afflicts Uzi and is connected to N's past. N has features of a typical male Disassembly Drone, with flared, boot-like legs instead of his female counterparts' cone-shaped legs. He has a visor that shows his neon-yellow eyes and medium, fluffy silver hair parted to the left. Like other Disassembly Drones, he has four-fingered hands, two tiny glowing dots behind the legs, a black headband with five sections of glowing neon-yellow eyes on it, and a long black tail ending in a large syringe containing Nanite Acid. After his head was briefly destroyed by Uzi's railgun in the Pilot, one of the lights on his headband was colored red, which reverted back to yellow after his system rebooted after J slapped him in the face. He wears a short-sleeved black winter coat with a golden fur collar and a black belt, along with a black pilot hat with a white skull insignia. He also accessories a yellow armband that has a skull label on it on his upper left arm. As shown from a few shots, he also has small fangs. The bottom of his feet and his wrists end in yellow and black hazard stripes. When he is hunting, his mouth reveals several jagged teeth while his eyes become an "X" shape. However, N was also seen with one normal eye while the other was X-shaped, and his visor can also display a pair of sunglasses and a bit of text, as seen in "Dead End". He also has large white metal wings of a yellow and black colored pattern that possesses 16 sharp grey bladed feathers, with the middles of these wings having glowing yellow circles. He can also replace his hands and switch them out for weapons and things that can aid him in his tasks, one of which are three-sharp claws that allow him to tear through any drone and his victims. As a butler in one of his many flashbacks, he was a Worker Drone with neon white eyes who wore a black construction helmet, a black blazer, and matching long pants. He wore an armband on his left arm, a gray shirt with a black tie underneath, and black shoes. During "The Promening", he wore a three-piece black-gray dress suit and matching slacks that he obtained from a human skeleton. During "Cabin Fever", he wore a scoutmaster's outfit consisting of a wide-brimmed campaign hat, brown shirt, and shorts. In the beginning of "Fight Til' I'm Good Enough", N is seen wearing a pink short sleeved pajama shirt with a golden retriever image on it and the word "Bupper". He was also wearing matching pink pants with a pattern consisting of bones and dogs sleeping on clouds throughout it. In the plushie version of this outfit, he also has a sleeping mask. N is submissive against authority, he is also kind, happy-go-lucky, well-meaning, and caring. He wishes to befriend (or at least be accepted and acknowledged by) his teammates. Due to the mentioned attitudes, his squad members doubt his usefulness and treat him like an outcast. Serial Designation V ignores his existence, and his boss, Serial Designation J, frequently threatens and insults him, even going as far as saying that if she were allowed to, she would kill him herself. Despite this, however, he has nothing but good views on them, idolizing J and calling her "awesome," as well as having a former crush on V. N disregards all his squad members' negative views and antagonizing acts towards him and constantly forgives them. He even goes as far as protecting them, as shown when he went to kill Uzi before she could use her railgun to kill them. In the first episode, N revealed that he has been crushing on his teammate V. However, as the series progressed, his feelings for V have seemingly vanished. Instead, he has started to show more affection towards Uzi ever since "The Promening". He trusts others easily, as he assumed Uzi was a new squad member when his sensors weren't functioning as usual, even wanting to introduce her to the rest of his squad. He also did not pick up on the signs that Uzi was lying (stuttering, asking what "we" meant, etc.) and even thought that Uzi was just trying something "new" when she stuck her hand in his mouth to neutralize the Nanite Acid, rather than picking up immediately on the fact that she couldn't do it herself. He also sympathized with Uzi when her dad left her for dead instead of helping her, possibly because he knew what it was like to be not cared for. Despite all claims to the contrary, N is a capable Disassembly Drone, having skillfully used his weaponry to a reasonable extent, such as having the accuracy to stab through a door control panel to force open the doors to Outpost 3. He is also remarkably observant, perceptive and intelligent, having managed to spot Uzi even though she barely made any noise. He also acknowledged the threat posed by Uzi's railgun to his teammates. N is not hesitant to lick or use his tongue on things. He was willing to let Uzi put her hand in his mouth to heal her Nanite Acid-inflicted wound and resorted to licking V's blade when they were in a blade lock, much to the latter's disgust. Both times he uses the word "repressed." After the events of "Cabin Fever", N has a newfound confidence, and his charming personality makes Uzi's classmates swoon over him. He can set boundaries for himself, even confronting V without hesitation. Deep down, N was scared and just wanted to have Uzi by his side, as after they met, things were less scary for him. N has also been shown to suppress his trauma frequently. He keeps his overly optimistic personality intact to help his friends. Even when being tortured by Beau, he's still friendly and encouraging towards them. Unfortunately, his kindness can be taken advantage of, as shown when V deceives N with false promises to only kill when necessary so he can unchain her, and when he battles with a Solver-possessed Uzi, it brings his guard down when looking at Uzi. This also leads to him frequently holding back. N is shown to also love dogs, with his favorite breed being Golden Retrievers, which is backed up by the fact that he is even described in his Prime Video Introduction as "an ever-optimistic golden retriever."

   Serial Designation V-X00100000, or simply known as V, is the tritagonist of Murder Drones. Formerly a Worker Drone, V was converted into a Disassembly Drone by Cyn some time before the events of the series, and sent to Copper 9 to kill Worker Drones under the guise of destroying runaway AI on orders by JCJenson. When her colleague and previous love interest, N, teams up with the rebellious Worker Drone, Uzi Doorman, V conflicts with them until the three come across the Absolute Solver, a mighty eldritch intelligence that afflicts Uzi and is connected to the Disassembly Drones' past; a past V knows more about than she lets on. V has the features of a typical female Disassembly Drone, with wide hips and shins tapered to a point. She has neon-yellow eyes and a silver bob-cut hairstyle. As with the other Disassembly Drones, she has a black headband with five sections of eyes and a long black tail ending with a large syringe containing Nanite Acid. She wears a dark gray, short-sleeved crop coat with a golden fur collar and cuffs. Her legs are painted black up to her thighs, resembling white shorts or thigh-high socks, with yellow and black stripes at the end of her legs. She also accessories a yellow armband with a skull label on it, along with some text, which contains her P/N (CYN-MYKX) and S/N (V-X00100000). When hunting, V's visor displays a long, neon yellow 'X' shape, and her mouth reveals her jagged teeth. She also deploys large metal wings with a yellow and black color pattern and possesses 16 feather blades, with the middles of the mentioned wings having two yellow glowing circles. V is also observed to have interchangeable hands that she can switch out for other tools and weapons that she can use to aid in her tasks, her most used one being three sharp claws that can easily tear through any drone. In N's flashback, V wore a black hard hat like the other Worker Drones, although adorning a maid crown in front of this hard hat, a grey with a black trim overall maid dress paired with a bowtie around the neck with two buttons on the middle, and black knee-length socks on both of her legs with two white stripes at the top, before ending with laced black shoes. She also wore an armband as well as black round glasses. As a Worker Drone, V suffered from poor vision (that was somewhat fixed when she became a Disassembly Drone, but not fully, as her vision still had flaws). She wore black circular glasses as a result in order to help fix her vision. In this form, V grew large bat wings (similar to Uzi's Solver form) and her right fingers were replaced with sharp claws. Her right hand also appeared fleshy and had a large yellow eye with a slit pupil on it. Her visor displayed an 'X' shape. During prom, V wore a glittery sleeveless red dress with a slit on the side. She also briefly wore a silver prom queen tiara before Doll's attack. At Camp 98.7, she wore a scoutmaster's outfit, which included a short-sleeved green shirt and shorts. She also wore a wide-brimmed green camping hat. V, on the surface, appears as a sociopathic, mean, violent, impulsive, and sadistic mass murderer, who has no qualms or regrets for murdering Worker Drones. However, underneath this exterior lies a traumatized and complex individual who seeks to keep her friends safe at any cost. In her past, she was a far more reserved individual, being quite shy, kind, and nervous around her then-love interest, N, with whom she shared a strong connection. However, she never truly stood up for herself or her fellow drones, as J frequently abused N as she stood by. When V became a Disassembly Drone, she adopted the persona of a mass murderer who found joy in the act of snuffing out life wherever the company required it, and she appears to have made this her default personality, even justifying some of her more moral actions as set-ups for more devious ones. However, this was mostly an act, as she secretly really cared for N, and tried to hide her past under this new personality to keep N safe. Though, due to defaulting to this more sadistic version of herself for so long, it began to bleed into her old personality, making her an overall morally grey character. It's then shown that Cyn kept her personality and memories intact, meaning her murderous personality is a front, and it's further revealed the only reason she kills is to satisfy Cyn so she doesn't hurt N. Despite her exterior ruthlessness, she did hold the capacity for empathy and particularly held a great deal of care for her colleague N, though she normally derided him under her "persona." She had such a great deal of care for N that she actively hid their traumatizing past from him to keep him sane, while also agreeing to carry out her duties as a Disassembly Drone under the condition that she and N would be left alone. She eventually becomes a staunch ally of Uzi, even sacrificing herself to secure Uzi and N's escape. She even develops a close friendship with Lizzy, a Worker Drone who she was originally planning to murder in the prom. While she does maintain an aloof and overall negative attitude towards Uzi, this also appears to be an act, which she maintains with Lizzy as well, as she has saved both characters at least once despite trying to keep up her uncaring personality. Due to her still retaining her original personality and memories, V holds great fear for the Solver, killing Workers to satisfy and keep it from harming her and N. When V sees any host for the Solver (e.g. Uzi), she immediately becomes wary and starts to target them. This is seen when Uzi first uses her Solver abilities to stop Doll's bullet, and later when she shows horrific changes from her infection, which sends V into hunting her down. 1 year after The Solver/Cyn was defeated, V seems to have been able to hold back her murderous persona to a degree and truly act like a normal person as shown in Fight Til' I'm Good Enough, messing about with Uzi and N. Her bond with Sparky seems to have also grown, as when it gets freed from Cyn's zombie prank, V hugs it, showing she was clearly worried for its safety. She seems to have also gotten far used to Uzi and N's romantic relationship, as she is seen smiling at them when the three of them fly into the sky, and is shown to be not bothered by it in the final shot of the video.

   Serial Designation J-10X111001, or simply known as J, is one of the two secondary antagonists (alongside Doll) in Murder Drones and is also the main protagonist in her own special "episode". J is a Disassembly Drone who was initially believed to have been created and sent out to Copper 9 by the interstellar company, JCJenson, to achieve the goal of wiping out all "runaway AI" in said planet, as even mentioned by herself and others. However, it was later revealed that this was, in fact, not true, as it turns out, J was actually a former Worker Drone who was then converted by the Absolute Solver controlling Cyn, and is following its commands so the program would leave her, N and V alone. Serial Designation J has the distinctive features of a female Disassembly Drone, with wide hips and shins tapered to a point. She has silver hair styled in high-sleek twin silver-colored ponytails, tied with black ribbons. Like other Disassembly Drones, she has neon yellow eyes and a black headband adorned with five additional eyes that contain Nanite Acid and match the color displayed on her visor, as well as a long, thin black tail ending in a large syringe also filled with Nanite Acid. Her attire consists of a short-sleeved black shirt with side pockets under it, a black leather belt giving it as a skirt, a dark yellow shirt beneath her blazer, and a tie, giving her the appearance of professionalism, especially in comparison to the other two members of her squadron. As for her legs, it appears as though she is wearing knee-high stockings with visible suspenders, but this is in actuality just the coloration of her chassis. On her left bicep, she wears a yellow armband marked with a skull emblem, signifying her role and identity as a Disassembly Drone. When in combat mode, she reveals jagged teeth, and her visor displays an "X" shape, signaling her aggressive intent. Her appearance is further heightened by large metal wings with a yellow and black color pattern and possesses 16 feather blades, with the middle of these wings being two yellow glowing circles. She is demonstrated to have interchangeable hands that she can switch out for other tools and weapons that can aid her in her missions, one of which are three-sharp claws, which enables her to tear through targets with ease. As a Worker Drone, J wore a black hard hat with a maid headdress attached to the front of it, a grey with black trim overall maid dress paired with a black bowtie around the neck, and black thigh-high socks with two white stripes on the top as well as laced black shoes. Her twin pigtails appeared to be slightly longer and were decorated with two black bows. Eldritch J resembles Cyn's actual form, a monstrous centipede-like being possessing with a yellow and black color pattern, as well as having multiple mantis-like appendages and a row of spikes running through its back. Its head is identical to J's, albeit with a melted visor, sharp serrated teeth lining the upper jaw, and the absence of a lower jaw. It also sports multiple appendages ending with Solver cameras. These camera appendages are used for the purpose of projecting holograms of drones it has studied and killed, before using them to lure its next victims. Other than that, Eldritch J also has claw appendages, which it often uses to grab onto individuals. One of Eldritch J's appendages resembles a human hand. Whether this is genuine human flesh or a look-alike is unknown. J is best described as a "lethal workaholic," as she is incredibly dedicated to her job - even using corporate jargon like "synergistic liability" and "fourth-quarter profits" in place of insults or vulgarism. J had a penchant for obeying authority and following orders as far back as her days as a Worker Drone, where she refused to intervene in Tessa's abuse from her parents, as "corporate" (her parents) had spoken. Although J is not as sadistic as V, she is still a cold killer and looks down on others whom she perceives as being "lesser", hypocritically referring to Worker Drones as "barely sentient toasters" despite her former role as a Worker Drone herself. J was stated to "take pleasure in domineering this beneath under the guise of following orders". This is best shown in J's relationship with N, as she despises him and frequently abuses him both physically and emotionally, angrily stating while crushing his throat that she would personally kill him if she was allowed, something she eventually does without hesitation by installing a virus in his OS when N questions attacking the Worker Drones. Notably, she also drew out the act and took great satisfaction in it, mocking N while he lay on the ground. In flashbacks of the Elliott Manor, J was shown to be abusive to N, unnecessarily hitting and insulting him in front of V. J is also arrogant, domineering, and prideful, as she finds satisfaction in belittling others. This habit often tends to get the better of her, as seen in almost all of her appearances. In the PILOT after incapacitating Uzi via an EMP, J took her time with a monologue (which she patted herself on the back for by calling it the "BestMonologueEver"), giving Uzi the chance to subdue J with her own nanite acid. In Absolute End, J takes the time to correct V's insult of referring to her a "narc", instead referring to herself as a "senior informant", allowing V to hurl her into a meteorite. Even as a Worker Drone in Home, J is seen with a cocky smirk standing next to Tessa when the two of them infiltrate the gala, allowing Tessa to quip before immediately being possessed by Cyn, flunking their attempt to stop the massacre. Despite her arrogance and frequent belittlement of others, however, J praises her comrades if she believes they deserve it, as she gladly swallows her pride and even congratulates N despite her hatred of him, referring to him as a "stud" and patting him on the back before rewarding him with a branded pen (something she herself considers a major accomplishment) for getting past Outpost 3's doors. In addition to this, she seems to have some form of begrudging respect for enemies that prove themselves particularly skilled in some field; in the special episode Meet J, it's shown that she considers Khan Doorman an "Actual Genius", as she has written under a photo of him when explaining the problem of Outpost 3's bunker doors. J used to be more emotionally open as seen in N's memories of the Elliott Manor, where being in the presence of Louisa scares her and causes her to awkwardly fidget with her hands, with Louisa's mention of having V (among other drones experiencing the 606 error in the library) disposed visibly upsetting her. J also does not object to Cyn standing up to Louisa, and visibly becomes nervous for N's safety when he attempts to cover for her, although, it quickly turns to exasperation when he does a poor job of it. She also acted to defend N from a possessed V despite her surliness towards him so he could check out the basement. J seemed close with Tessa in particular, attached to her at the hip in every scene of every episode they share together. This also persists with Tessa in the modern day, with her even seen riding on J's back during the chase against Doll in Dead End. The two of them had a very natural dynamic, Tessa being shown sharing her fears about the gala toward J, causing the latter to attempt comforting her by performing an exaggerated bow. They also shared similar thought processes, both of them thinking to grab weapons to use against Cyn in the same place, at the same time, indicating their close dynamic. Despite this however, J still prioritized "corporate" above all else, complying with Tessa's abuse and refusing to help her free herself from her chains, guiltily averting her gaze and stating that "corporate's spoken" when Tessa asked for her help. Even after being killed by Cyn and turned into a Disassembly Drone, for some time J still had elements of her emotionally open self still intact, showing professionalism and creative planning for how to get into Outpost 3. Her being so close with Tessa might've also had an impact on her current life at that moment, as in private, J acts much more wild and erratic knowing she doesn't have to worry about work for some time. J also holds a great deal of fear for the Solver that she never showed to N and V, visibly shaken by the idea of meeting it in person after the request is brought up. While J has become incredibly hardened in the modern day, she is not incapable of showing emotion like her former self. She shows hesitation before leaving V and N in a disguised Cyn's presence, expresses guilt and unhappiness during her fight with V and even offers to let her join "the winning team". She also shows fear when presented with Lizzy, Thad, Khan, and the railgun that killed her once before, and is also spooked by the prospect of having her head cut off during Absolute End's final battle. J's true character is revealed in Absolute End, where it's shown she's aware of Tessa's assimilation and, despite this, is assisting her killer in the attempted destruction of Copper 9, focusing on being on the "winning team" in hopes that Cyn wouldn't hurt her by complying. She angrily states to V that there is no escape from the Solver, even in death (due to the Solver possessing backups of them). J later distances herself from her former allies following V's rejection of her offer to join them, coldly stating that she never needed V or N before trying to aid the Solver in killing them both. According to Liam Vickers via a message on Discord, J sees herself as the thankless leader of N and V, an "older sibling" figure who stepped up to keep the three of them together when the Solver first appeared and caused everyone else to "sorta mentally implode". He additionally stated that from J's perspective when the Solver showed up and killed the "current leading figure", she personally felt it came down to her as the de facto "bossiest" of the three to decide whether or not to lead the fight or bend the knee in the hopes of survival. She consistently chooses to side with whatever dominant oppressive system is in place, knowingly exploiting others in order to secure better conditions for herself and, to some small extent, her companions N and V. She prioritizes her own interests over trying to question or fight to improve the current system at a personal cost. This is rightfully treated as a villainous move - especially since V switches sides from a similar position to face unknown odds against the Solver while J doubles down. The Solver wearing Tessa's skin while also provoking immense fear in J along with being seemingly undefeatable results in her choosing the logical route for the best chance at staying alive and staying together with N and V, whom she views as "thankless little traitors" that abandoned her.

   Cyn is the main antagonist of Murder Drones. She was a Worker Drone who was improperly disposed of by her owners, resulting in the Absolute Solver mutating inside of her and taking her as a host to cause destruction. Under the Solver's influence, Cyn was responsible for many major events in the series, from the Elliott Manor gala massacre to the deployment of Disassembly Drones to Copper 9. Following the massacre and the fusing of Tessa's body with herself, Cyn proceeded to reconstruct N, J, V, and other Worker Drone servants of the manor into Disassembly Drones that she unleashed upon humanity afterwards that ultimately led to the destruction of Earth and humankind. After spreading to the other human exoplanets by taking over other drones who possessed the powers of the Solver, she would destroy each planet one-by-one until finally coming to Copper 9. However, due to the intervention of Yeva and Nori, she failed to initiate a total core collapse, and in order to finish the job, had to go to the planet directly and do it herself. To accomplish this, Cyn re-programmed the Disassembly Drones into hunting Worker Drones instead of humans, under the lie that their parent company had sent them, which culminated in her arriving as Tessa to deal with the remaining Solver Hosts, Doll, and Uzi, to prevent anyone else from stopping her consumption of the planet. She met her end at the hands of Uzi after the latter destroyed her core and swallowed the Solver's singularity, causing Cyn's half of the fusion between her and Tessa to melt, and for Uzi to become the Solver's new main host. Cyn presented herself as the smallest Worker Drone in Elliott Manor. She wore a grey overall-style maid dress with black trim, a dark grey apron, and a dark grey inner dress with a large black bow tie and two buttons below it. She had silver-white hair and two straight-down twin tails, each with a hair band on the lower end. She also wore black thigh-high socks with white stripes, and a pair of black shoes. A big black bow was also placed on the left side at the back of her head, as is a maid's crown, which resembled both J and V's. Cyn's hairstyle as a Worker Drone greatly resembled Tessa's. Cyn was also the only Worker Drone in Elliott Manor with yellow eyes, due to being permanently possessed by the solver, compared to all the other drones' blue or white eyes. Her true form, rarely exposed, was a massive mechanical centipede. Its color pattern featured two stripes of black and yellow, with a grey bottom possessing yellow dots. In this form, she had large appendages that either ended with claws (claw appendages), Solver cameras (camera appendages), brown-colored crab-like limbs, black flesh-like tendrils with humans hands, or simply vine-like tendrils with pointed ends. In this form, she was nearly identical to the Eldritch J monstrosity. In "Mass Destruction", it was revealed that the Solver killed Tessa and later grafted her corpse onto Cyn's body, fusing them together, with Cyn's body acting as the skeleton wearing Tessa's skin, though it still contained some of Tessa's bones. The hybrid form of Cyn wore Tessa's purple heels and black and purple dress, though the dress had been tattered. She had Tessa's black hair and bow on her head. Her eye sockets were empty, showing Cyn's face screen instead, and her eyes were X-shapes glowing a neon yellow-orange color. Around the eyes, traces of dried blood could be seen as well. She had numerous jagged sharp teeth with a dark grey tongue. She also had a ripped part of her skin that revealed a code "1001" on her chest, similar to the ones of disposed drones bodies in the pile where she was first awakened by the Solver. In this form, she still kept her yellow "MARKED FOR DISASSEMBLY" armband wrapped around Tessa's left shoulder. At the neck reaching to the ripped part of Tessa's corpse there was an arrow-like black bloodstain pointing downwards, on her left arm are two of these arrows, and on the left thigh there were two more of these arrows that trailed down to the end of where Tessa's knee would be. In both the show, concept art, and promotional material, various seams on her body, instead of stitches, are lined with a symbol of four small arrows pointing towards the center, a symbol similar to the "scale down" computer icon. Tessa's human hands also protruded above Cyn's drone hands, which hung freely from her wrists, with Tessa's human hands draped on top. She also had large, flesh-like tendrils poking out on her back; three intestine-like tentacles protruded out of the hybrid form's back in a similar arrangement to the Absolute Solver Translate symbol, which she used to stand and walk around on. The hybrid was capable of sprouting wings, as well as growing the camera-eye limbs of the Solver's eldritch form. It is not easy to ascertain Cyn's real personality and actual mannerisms, as little is known of her from before her disposal, and after rebooting she had little individuality due to her role as the host for the Absolute Solver. In her brief appearance in the opening of Home, Cyn appeared terrified of her situation (namely being disposed of and trapped underneath the corpses of fellow workers) and was desperate enough to accept the Absolute Solver's interference despite the danger. During her tenure at Elliott Manor, Cyn came off as having a chilling personality that unsettled those around her due to her disconcerting behavior and mannerisms. Lacking any normal semblance of emotions, she used mimicry and imitation to behave like a real person would, speaking her actions aloud ("light sip", "sheepish nod", "giggle"), however she remained capable of actually laughing on rare occasions. Her posture and gait were rather awkward, stilted, and off-balance, and her movements were very clumsy. This unnerving behavior resulted in Cyn being locked in the basement more often than not to avoid interacting with other drones or humans, with Louisa referring to Cyn as a "little antichrist". Cyn was also very reckless with her abilities, constantly giving her true nature away by escaping the basement via her teleportation, something others (such as J) found suspicious. When around her "big brother" N and Tessa, Cyn presented a childish, clueless, and cheerful personality, whether to keep their suspicions away or simply because they were her favorites. This only appeared to work on N however, as while Tessa is indicated to have been close with Cyn early on to the point of having their photos taken together numerous times, Tessa was seen in Home to have grown a very short fuse when it came to Cyn, as Cyn was constantly putting herself and others (particularly N and Tessa) in danger with her disobedience. Unlike her peers N, V, J, and Tessa, Cyn was willing to stand up to the humans (or otherwise) who abused her despite the danger it put her or those around her in, as seen when she badmouthed J to Tessa and N about her "basement timeouts", and when she coldly stated to Louisa that the drones in the library were "not broken", asserting that they could "no longer be thrown out". Beneath her cheerful and childish nature, Cyn was angry, spiteful, and violent, seeking retribution on the Elliott's and even humanity as a whole for the abuse heaped upon her, those she cared about, and her fellow Workers. Cyn also seemed to be rather arrogant to the point of overconfidence, as on top of her previous recklessness she purposefully drew out her introduction before initiating the gala massacre. Despite the Absolute Solver's initial attempt to make Tessa stay away, it and Cyn had no qualms about trapping her after she attempted to intervene in the massacre at the gala, with Cyn's body being fused with Tessa's at an unknown point later on. Under the influence and voracious appetite of the Solver, Cyn grew to target the destruction of entire planets, doing so first with Earth, and later on the other human exoplanets, with Copper 9 being their final target. Cyn also desired to eliminate the other hosts of the Absolute Solver as well as the Crucifix Patch, the latter scaring her and the Solver enough for them to send every Disassembly Drone they had (save for their three favorites) to Cabin Fever Labs to destroy it, despite their continued destruction by its inhabitants. In the modern day, Cyn was portrayed as a very disturbed, violent, and sadistic individual alongside the Solver. They took pleasure in torturing those around them both physically and psychologically, deliberately drawing out torturous scenarios in order to cause as much suffering as possible. Despite this, Cyn did still appear to care for some, namely N and Tessa, the latter of whom Cyn and the Solver appear to have kept alive despite her pleas for death.[1] As a result, she still lovingly referred to N as her "big brother" and was evidently fond of him. Just as it was for Tessa, Cyn's care for N was very twisted, as she had no qualms and even took pleasure in mutilating, torturing, lobotomizing, or otherwise hurting him, either assuming he would forgive her or forcing him to forgive her by erasing his memories like she did beforehand when converting him into a Disassembly Drone. Cyn was also shown to still retain her personality from the manor to a degree, such as her short temper, easily being angered simply by the notion of Nori still being alive, being frustrated by N and Nori getting the upper hand on her, swearing in anger after she failed to consume N's core, and similarly expressing anger toward Uzi when the latter became immune to her control. Cyn also retained her overconfidence, grinning, and winking at N during her battle against him and Nori up until her loss, as well as refusing to use most of her arsenal during Absolute End's final battle despite the disadvantageous position and the fact she'd lost her previous battle.

   Nori Doorman is a major protagonist in Murder Drones who was responsible for the core implosion event on Copper 9. She is a former test subject for Cabin Fever Labs, is the wife of Khan Doorman, the mother of Uzi, and the second known host of the Absolute Solver. Before being forced to thrive as a heart, she was a Worker Drone with neon purple eyes, though Alice contradicts this, stating that Nori had yellow eyes, referring to her eyes when possessed by the Absolute Solver. Her hair is violet, a slightly lighter shade than Uzi's, with a long bang parted to her left and tied up in a loose ponytail. She also wears a black construction helmet, an oversized gray off-shoulder shirt, and a black choker on her neck with an inscription that reads "#002" (her ID number). Her outfit is identical to Yeva's, who is the mother of Doll. Nori is also barefooted. Nori strongly resembles her daughter, Uzi, meaning that Uzi inherited many of her mother's traits. In "Mass Destruction" and "Absolute End", Nori controls her disembodied heart. Nori's heart looks similar to the hearts of other Solver-infected drones, as shown in "Dead End" as well as the heart of Eldritch J shown in "Heartbeat" — a small blob of dark red, sticky flesh draped over a standard Worker Drone core, with a single neon pink eye in the middle and eight other camera-like cylindrical eyes protruding in the intermediate directions, and three thin black tentacle appendages protruding from the bottom and ending in a fleshy, soft, crustacean-like pointed claw, arranged in a triagonal planar shape similar to the Absolute Solver's Translate symbol. She wears a mourning cap with a bow as an accessory. Based on the photos of her in Cabin Fever Labs, she seems to be relatively easy-going, laid-back, and chill with those around her as she did not seem too concerned with possessing the Absolute Solver despite the potential risks of harboring it. This disregard for the Absolute Solver's potential risks resulted in her being fully possessed by it. Her husband described her as "kooky and insane" due to her drawings of her prophecies, which were considered nothing more than crazy ramblings at the time about the Disassembly Drones and singularities. This could imply that Uzi's erratic and unusual behavior is attributed to some of her mother's. Likewise, she shares the same blunt and snarky attitude with Uzi. Nori is very caring, kind, protective, and motherly when it comes to Uzi, as she becomes hesitant when N suggests they tell Uzi that she is alive, only for Nori to refuse as she holds herself responsible for every horror in her life. Nori also cheers for Uzi as it has her final battle with Cyn. She also gets enraged when she learns that Uzi and N are romantically linked. Likewise, despite working with N, Nori has a more hostile approach towards him due to his role as a Disassembly Drone, and is not hesitant to use force on him. Like her daughter, she has some of what appears to be the same coping mechanisms, as upon saving Khan from falling, she immediately cuts off his thanks by claiming that he does not know her and that she hates him, before running away and sobbing. Nori is a serious and cynical drone who can often be quite cold and sarcastic towards others. In the same vein as her daughter, she also writes about the events that occur or the things she finds, although uniquely having the hobby of writing an 'S' in most of the notes she writes. As a result, Nori blames herself for the events that occurred to both Uzi and the planet and because of that wants to stop the Absolute Solver by herself. She does, however, seem to care about the lives of other individuals, even if the way she expresses it hint otherwise, as she saved N from the Solver when she first met him. Nori is also revealed to hold a grudge against the Disassembly Drones for nearly killing her and destroying her body, as when she found out Uzi and N were dating, she is enraged and slaps a possessed Uzi with such strength that gets her knocked to the ground, indirectly breaking her free as a result. Regardless, Nori is a good person at heart. She loves her daughter and husband, choosing to isolate herself out of fear over indirectly jeopardizing their lives and their relationship with each other. During the series finale, she has a heart to heart moment with Uzi as they finally have a chance to talk to each other for the first time in years and later cheers her on during her fight with Cyn/The Absolute Solver. She also saves Khan from falling to his death and, despite initially running away from him out of embarrassment, ultimately gets back together with him as shown in the ending and during the credits.

   Khan Doorman is the tetartagonist in Murder Drones. He is the father of Uzi Doorman, the previously estranged husband of Nori Doorman, and the inventor of the blast doors that kept the colony of Outpost 3 safe from Disassembly Drones, as well as a leader in the Worker Defense Force organization. Khan is a male Worker Drone with white eyes and a fake black mustache, alongside wrinkles on his visor. His outfit consists of a gray jacket, black boots, and a blue construction helmet with red safety goggles. Khan wishes to keep the colony safe with as little bloodshed as possible. He also seems to have developed trauma from encountering the Murder Drones, refusing to arm the Worker Defense Force in favor of fortified doors. His pacifist way of thinking clashes with his daughter Uzi's aggressive and forward tactics; upon spotting Serial Designation N, Khan refuses to pick up her railgun, instead shutting the blast doors from her. This trauma is most likely from him having to put his wife "out of her misery" when a Disassembly Drone fatally wounded her with their Nanite Acid. He is hugely obsessed with using doors as the solution to any Disassembly Drone attack, proposing that he and the WDF build a quick door even though Serial Designation V and J have already broken inside. His obsession with doors may have originated from Nori repeatedly telling him to "build doors against the coming sky demons." Khan's relationship with his daughter is strained. The numerous posters around Outpost 3 shows Khan deeming Uzi a "disappointment" and claiming that his doors are his real legacy. He is also shown to have notes on his room saying that he prefers doors over Uzi.[1] However, after the events of "PILOT", he realizes his mistake and tries to mend things. He also notes that Uzi is on "that kill-all-humans kick" like when he was younger. This is possibly indicative that Khan, at some point, had a drive to kill humans, though what altered his personality away from this is unknown. As shown in "The Promening", Khan is trying to become a better father, bringing Uzi to prom in an attempt to make her have fun moments, convincing her teacher to have Lizzy and Doll help her dress up for the occasion. Khan also tries to help Uzi during her fight with Doll and warmly smiles when he hears her speech to Doll. He even tries to help her after Doll attacks, but she locks the door before he can enter. Khan later admitted that he wasn't the one about his wife or Uzi needed to protect them, showing that he resents his cowardly nature and regrets leaving her for dead. Khan and Uzi appear to have reconciled following "Cabin Fever" and "Home". In "Mass Destruction", it's implied he is trying to get over his cowardly nature as he had built himself a railgun based off Uzi's blueprints and has leaned into his position as a leader of the Worker Defense Force to save the planet. He also has developed ingenuity as he used doors to save N's core from being devoured by Cyn in "Absolute End".

   Doll was one of the two secondary antagonists (alongside Serial Designation J) of Murder Drones. She was a Russian-speaking Worker Drone whose original primary goal was exacting revenge upon Serial Designation V for killing her parents. Later in the show, alongside her original goal, she wanted to free herself and Uzi from the Absolute Solver. Doll was a female Worker Drone who had long dark indigo hair with blunt bangs and neon red-orange eyes (which glows more red when she's angry). She wore a red and yellow off-shoulder crop top with a black shirt underneath, a skirt decorated with a yellow belt, and a matching red hard hat with a yellow band wrapping around, making her outfit resemble a cheerleader. She also wore tall black winter boots. This is also the same outfit Lizzy, Rebecca, and Kelsey Day wear. During "Home" and subsequent episodes, she wore a red button-shaped eyepatch to cover her right eye. The reason as to why she wore it remained unknown up until "Mass Destruction", where it was revealed that her usage of the Absolute Solver had turned one of her eyes yellow. Once Tessa slices it off, she ends up shattering Doll's right eye, leaving it cracked and leaking blood. In "The Promening", she wears a burgundy-red dress with a skirt that ends just above her knees. It has long, off-the-shoulder sleeves of the same color. She wears a matching red hard hat, a black band around the rim, and the same tall black winter boots. Doll is an interpretation of the Quiet One trope — introverted and taciturn. Doll rarely spoke to anyone, talking occasionally with her best friend, Lizzy, and giving enigmatic non-answers to questions anyone might have. In addition to being quiet, Doll lacked any interest in expressing herself to others under the assumption that no one understands how to help her. When first confronted by Uzi, Uzi tries to talk her into moving on, responding to Uzi's attempt at persuading her by saying she doesn't need help, implying she doesn't choose to listen to anyone. In contrast to her cold nature however, Doll does appear to have a more lighthearted and immature side that rarely sees the light of day, as she is seen gleefully participating in Lizzy's bullying of Uzi in the PILOT. Beneath her facade of an introvert who prefers to keep to herself are deep psychological problems resulting from seeing her parents killed and eaten at a young age by Serial Designation V. This aftermath resulted in Doll becoming hellbent on killing Serial Designation V as revenge for the deaths of her family as she does anything to achieve her goal, even resorting to murdering some of her fellow Worker Drones. Furthermore, Doll has shown herself to be both determined and deadly, but she has also proven to possess keen perception and quick thinking in challenging circumstances. Doll's murder of her fellow Workers goes beyond mere necessity or misguided judgement however, as despite being able to kill instantly, in the opening sequence of The Promening Doll is shown explicitly torturing Kelsey Day and prolonging her suffering for no reason other than her own enjoyment, visibly smiling as Kelsey continuously screams and attempts to escape, indicating that Doll enjoys the thrill of the chase and will purposefully draw it out no matter who her victims are or how innocent they may be. Doll also murders numerous innocents at the prom itself, and later in Dead End, betrays her promise to help Uzi the first chance she gets twice, once by stealing the keybug, and once more by trapping her in a more literal dead end against a horde of sentinels, something that would've meant certain death for anyone else. Overall, this shows her lack of ability and/or willingness to work together or cooperate with others, believing she can and will do everything by herself. Doll is also shown to be a hypocrite, as she expresses disgust with Uzi for siding with the Disassembly Drones by proclaiming they have destroyed families, when she herself has done the same by slaughtering countless candidates for prom queen. She double-crossed Uzi twice by breaking her promise to help, attempting to leave her behind, and later attempting to get her killed outright. Furthermore, Doll will only show herself to her opponents or engage in a fight if she has the objective upper hand - such as torturing a defenseless Kelsey Day, surprising and physically entrapping V, or attacking Tessa from behind in the dark. Overall, this seems to indicate Doll's true nature as very cowardly, which correlates with her fear of the raid of Outpost 3 in the PILOT, her terrified reaction when she sees Eldritch J, and when her brief panic attack when she believes herself to be alone in Mass Destruction. Despite being undeniably persistent, hypocritical, cowardly, and murderous, Doll has shown to have a grasp of some morals and sympathy for others. For example, she cares about some of her fellow Worker Drones, particularly her friendships with Lizzy and Thad. She likes to play board games with Lizzy, and gets really invested in them. She is also known to not get invited to parties and doesn't often interact with many other Worker Drones besides her few friends. Regardless of the fact she doesn't like to express herself, she can relate to anyone who has faced similar situations akin to hers, particularly with Uzi. However, before her death, Doll was revealed to be more of an anti-villain, as her true goal was to obtain the patch and use it on herself to prevent the Absolute Solver from using her to destroy the planet, but her efforts go in vain as she is ambushed and violently gored by the Solver. Although Doll once laughed at and bullied Uzi, Doll can relate to her situation and declares that she'll help Uzi with her solver provided she "finds what she's looking for". After she is given the Keybug from Uzi, Doll tells Khan on her way out that he "raised a good daughter." Doll also spent her very last moments warning Uzi to "fight back" in Russian, although whether this message was meant explicitly for Uzi or anyone who happened to come across it is unclear.

   Lizzy is a supporting character in Murder Drones. She is a classmate of Uzi Doorman and is known for her status as one of the most popular students in Outpost 3's school hierarchy. She later teams up with Thad and Khan Doorman to pursue Serial Designation J in her spaceship, with help from a "secret friend" that is later revealed to be Serial Designation V. Lizzy is a female Worker Drone possessing neon pink eyes and long blonde hair (pale pink with silver streaks with a blond ponytail in the "PILOT") that is tied up into a ponytail, with a large yellow bow resembling cat ears. The bow matches the yellow band on her red hardhat. Her attire resembles the uniform of a cheerleader, with an off-the-shoulder crop top lined with yellow on the bottom and a pair of black boots and a skirt with a band. She also appears to have a black tank top underneath. This is an outfit also worn by Doll, Kelsey, and Rebecca. During prom, Lizzy wore a light pink, polka-dot-patterned heart dress, the dots being a slightly darker shade of pink, a matching pink bow, a pair of boots, and a hard hat. During the camping trip, Lizzy wore a maroon hard hat, her bow, paired with a matching colored T-shirt with the text "CAMP HAIR DON'T CARE," in a curly font on its front, a skirt, and boots. Lizzy reveals elements of the "Popular Girl" archetype, a high nose with an even higher ego. She is likely on good terms with her teacher, as evidenced by the fact that she and Doll were the ones sent by him to accompany Uzi Doorman to prom. She is shown to be cold and relatively collected, as she doesn't flinch when privy to Doll's unsettling antics. With more boldness than warranted, Lizzy plays her cards smart and isn't afraid to pull out an aggressive hand. This is shown by her out-manipulating Serial Designation V's manipulation, using her power to forcibly demand the crowd's respect for the newly-declared prom queen, and skillfully utilizing the speech tactic of "involving the audience" when calling out Rebecca. Lizzy is not heartless despite her bratty behavior, as she is worried for V when the latter is about to fall for Doll's trap; warning V to escape at the last second. Along with this, she seems to reassure Doll before she goes to kill V at the prom, and along with Doll, attempts to help Thad when he's defending the workers from V in the "PILOT". It is implied that she helps N and V repair themselves after finding them ripped apart backstage. Lizzy was later seen holding a funeral for Doll, showing how she still cared for her friend despite everything, while also bad-mouthing Rachel.

   Thad is a supporting character in Murder Drones. He is a Worker Drone who is one of Uzi Doorman's classmates, and one of the few drones in Outpost 3 who ever treated her with any sort of respect. He later ends up becoming friends with Serial Designation N, and assists Lizzy and Khan Doorman in their pursuit of Serial Designation J. Thad is a Worker Drone with neon green eyes, silvery blonde hair, and a maroon cap with white accents worn backwards. The hat has a brown insignia of a football with a plug. He sports a maroon vest with yellow sleeves, along with a black T-shirt depicting a white zero, and also wears red shoes with yellow laces. During Prom, Thad wears his normal baseball cap in addition to a maroon suit, pants, black shoes, and tie. Thad's outfit that he wears to Camp 98.7 is near identical to his casual outfit, with the only difference being that he wears a different undershirt that reads "Camp 98.7." Much like his friend, Uzi Doorman, Thad has a streak of bravery that most other Worker Drones lack. While this first showed itself in his willingness to talk to Uzi (while others wrote her off as a weirdo), he was also willing to stand up to Disassembly Drones despite how their combat ability outclassed his in every conceivable way. It is perhaps this willingness to act that led him to be so disgusted with the Worker Defense Force after they froze up when confronted with a real problem - one that couldn't be solved with their doors. He also appeared to have believed the various posters tacked within their colony and was shocked when Uzi's own father left her to die instead of making any attempt to help her at all. Thad is also quite the loyal friend, leaving the safety of the colony just to give Uzi back her railgun, which she had previously left behind after leaving on a self-imposed exile. He also accompanied her and Serial Designation N to investigate the mysterious disappearance of a Worker Drone, and after being captured by the culprit and freed by the duo, he even speaks disparagingly to his former captor. Generally, his behavior is similar to that of a high school jock, though is noticeably kinder than his friends. He is generally the "cool kid," carrying a skateboard with him while also being very polite and friendly.

   Braidon was a recurring minor character in Murder Drones. He first appeared in "Heartbeat" and "The Promening", before dying in "Cabin Fever", and then making another appearance in "Absolute End", this time as his corpse. Braidon was a male Worker Drone with neon blue eyes. He wore a turquoise helmet with a gray vertical stripe down the middle and a businessman's outfit with a black blazer, purple tie, and a white blouse, paired with purple shorts. His head is often seen on fire since the episode of "Heartbeat". In "The Promening", he appears to wear a black suit and, of course, his head continues to be lit on fire in every appearance he makes while wearing this outfit.

   Sam was a minor character in Murder Drones. He was a stoner and one of Uzi Doorman's classmates who attended a camping trip to Camp 98.7 supervised by Serial Designation N and V during "Cabin Fever", before he was later murdered by Uzi in her Solver form. Sam was a male Worker Drone who had neon pink eyes. He wore a red and green woolen hat, a green, red, and yellow hoodie, and sneaker boots to his field trip to Camp 98.7 with the others. Sam is laid-back and calm most of the time, most likely due to his use of magnets, which as evidenced by Episode 6, are used as sedatives. He often seems to be slightly disconnected from reality as well, not really caring about when he got hurt until he died from Uzi.

   Emily was a minor character in Murder Drones. She was one of the students who attended a trip to Camp 98.7, during which she read Final Girl: Survival Guide. While spending time with her friends, Emily was scared off by Uzi Doorman in her Solver form before getting beheaded by the latter. Emily was a female Worker Drone with neon blue eyes and having black hair with two pigtails. She also wore a pair of half-oval-shaped glasses, a navy t-shirt with some lighter purple trims on the sleeves and the bottom of the shirt, as well as having an logo of what looks like a snowy mountain range with some trees on it, accompanied by a pair of black boots. Like Uzi, she was also considerably shorter than the rest of her classmates. Emily is shown to be anxious, easily worried, cautious, and afraid. She also appears to be religious, as she does the sign of the cross after getting startled by Uzi and calls Darren and Rebecca's make out session immoral.

   Yeva was a posthumous character in Murder Drones. She was first mentioned in "Heartbeat" before making her first and only physical appearance in "The Promening". She was the mother of Doll and a victim of Serial Designation V, alongside her husband. Yeva was a female Worker Drone who had short, dark indigo hair in bangs and neon-red eyes, similar to her daughter. She wore white gloves, a black helmet, and a black dress with a white collar bearing her ID number (048), similar to her fellow subjects, Nori and Alice. She was small compared to Mitchell, below his chest in height. She wore a nightgown which was taped together at the back, implying she was not regularly looked after. Yeva is seen as a quiet drone, for we never see her actually speak, implying she is either mute or only talks when necessary. She also appears to be protective towards her friends or people in general, as seen when she offers her hand to Nori after patching her and protected her from further harm when the core collapse happened and that she desperately tried to get the doors open when Mitchell prevented her from entering, concerned about what was unfolding inside. She appears to be annoyed easily when interrupted doing something she enjoys, as seen when Mitchell interrupts her game of Tetris. She seems to possess some level of sass as she tugs her hand out of Mitchell's and slaps it, refusing his help as they run back to the laboratory to contain Nori. Yeva also appears to be somewhat cocky, as she's seen smirking before injecting Nori with the Crucifix Patch, despite the severity of the situation.

   Alice was a minor antagonist in Murder Drones. She made her first and only appearance "Dead End," where she is revealed to be a former Cabin Fever Labs test subject who scavenged for drones killed by the Anti-Drone Sentinels, decapitated them, before using their parts for herself. She, alongside her assistant, Beau, also kidnapped Uzi, N, V, and "Tessa," and went as further as torturing Uzi to declare her dislike of Uzi's mother, Nori Doorman. Ironically, she was later killed by the Sentinels. Alice has bright neon-orange eyes and dark reddish-brown hair with black bangs tied up into a ponytail, with her bangs parted to her right. She wears a typical, albeit withered, grey dress that all female drones are accustomed to, along with a V-shaped collar revealing her neon-orange Worker Drone symbol on her chest. She has a long, makeshift thin black tail (which mimics that of a Disassembly Drone, albeit without the acid) with the tip of it curling around the handle of a kitchen knife. She also dons antlers that go over her hard hat, adorning various items likely scavenged throughout the facility. Her left antler consists of various silverware, and her ID card is all bound by ropes on a pipe. Her right antler consists of a pipe similar to her left one, but now has a lightbulb attached to it. It also has a shard of glass hanging down, functioning as a makeshift mirror. She's also barefooted. Alice is an incredibly sadistic Worker Drone with a hobby of scavenging body parts from other drones and adding the parts of her victims to her antlers. She is cold towards her assistant, Beau, bossing them around and calling them an idiot. Alice also holds a vendetta towards Nori Doorman, which is why she is so interested in torturing her daughter, Uzi, even though she barely knows anything about the former. Alice also likes to watch the Sentinels kill Worker Drones and Disassembly Drones through the facility's cameras as if she were watching a movie. Despite this cold and sociopathic personality, Alice is not above showing fear, shown through her terror at witnessing the Absolute Solver possess Uzi and destroy the control panel keeping the doors closed.

   Tessa James Elliott, more commonly referred to simply as Tessa, was the posthumous overarching protagonist of Murder Drones, as well as the inadvertent instigator of humanity's downfall. She was the daughter of James and Louisa Elliott, and spent her childhood recovering numerous discarded Worker Drones from a nearby dump and repurposing them to be her friends and servants at Elliott Manor, growing especially close to Serial Designation N, V, J, and Cyn, who had the Absolute Solver's influence over her body. In her youth Tessa was a very lively and kind-hearted girl at first glance, although was actually a rather morbid and disturbed individual, as hinted at by the décor in her room: shelves with human bones and skulls, bottles of what appeared to be blood, occultist and satanic religious scrawlings scribbled on her walls, among numerous other grotesque items. Furthermore, Tessa had a habit of digging up the corpses of her deceased relatives, harvesting their bodies (hence the human remains in her room) and also using their hair to decorate her drones with, something she did not see as abnormal. These morbid interests were contrasted by other more immature room decorations, such as a stereotypical "Live Laugh Love" sign mounted on her wall, crayon drawings of childish things, a pink dollhouse with buff male figures in swimsuits, and many others. Generally, Tessa appeared to be a very "girly-girl" when not engaging in her morbid interests. Young Tessa was asocial, having no interest in other humans and having no clue how to interact with them, having been isolated from other humans outside of her abusive parents her entire life (exclaiming to J that she had "only ever yakked to robots.") The idea of potentially interacting with other humans scared Tessa to such a degree she shouted to J about it in hysterics before the gala, even asking the latter to "pretend to be a ripping royal stud" for her to practice interacting with. Despite her parent's dismay, Tessa had an affinity toward drones and preferred to spend her time with them instead. She also had a tinkering hobby, being incredibly skilled with machinery to the point of being able to fix four decommissioned drones who were thrown out and left to rot. This hobby was later shown to have become her profession, although this could've just been a fabrication. While Tessa was usually seen closest to J, N appeared to be her favorite drone both in the manor and as an adult. Tessa adored her drones but did express frustration or irritation with them on occasion, particularly when it came to their well-being: she was seeming visibly frustrated by Cyn leaving the basement despite the danger, raising her voice at Cyn for getting N sent to the swamp, and being exasperated by N's denial of Cyn orchestrating the gala massacre. Tessa was also shown to be very selfless, as she immediately broke out of her room and attempted to stop Cyn's massacre of the gala, despite her adversity toward humans and her parents' abuse of her. As an adult, Tessa was first portrayed as a rather serious and intimidating individual during the ending of "The Promening", decapitating a worker drone for seemingly no reason other than being in the way. She also appeared to be a bit possessive of her beloved drones, ordering J around (although to a lighthearted degree, with the two of them finishing each other's sentences) and asking Uzi to not "date my robot, please." Tessa also appeared to be good at reading people and often predicted their actions with extreme accuracy, as seen when she swan-dived into the Cabin Fever Labs despite the lethal fall, only to lounge in the arms of N when he caught her. Similarly, she also predicted Doll's incoming attack in Mass Destruction with superhuman accuracy, detecting Doll's presence and sidestepping her blade while catching it in her hand without ever looking back. Despite this however, adult Tessa was still very similar to her manor self, particularly when in the presence of her beloved drones, although to a more mature/experienced degree. She displayed childishness such as when she gleefully squealed N's name and attempted to spin him around like when they were kids, and committed recklessness such as putting herself in danger even when it would've made more sense to avoid it, like when diving into the Cabin Fever Labs or attempting to prevent a sentinel from hurting N. She also continued to display frustration when it came to her drone's well-being, as she exasperatedly asked N whose side he was on before going silent and flopping onto her gurney in frustration when he encouraged Beau to continue mutilating him. She was also still unbothered by ghastly sights that disturbed others, such as the pile of Disassembly Drone corpses in the Cabin Fever Labs. She was rather overconfident just like she was in Home, such as when exclaiming that as a human she could control the security in the Cabin Fever Labs, only to swiftly have her access denied. Furthermore, Tessa also appeared very sheepish and socially inept at times, interrupting J and getting flustered when the former stated that Tessa had "ran away" from Cyn. This was also seen with Tessa nervously following up her bold claim of being able to control the sentinels with a nervous "...maybe," upon having her access denied. She was incredibly relaxed even in dangerous situations, typically because she was always somewhat in control or had a backup plan to escape - such as when Tessa deliberately waited for Beau to show her the door code, then easily freed herself and N from their restraints with a blade she'd kept hidden on her person. Despite this, however, Tessa did visibly display nervousness during serious situations a couple of times: e.g. attempting to save N from a sentinel or hastily fumbling for her sword when she later realized the same sentinel had developed a taste for her human blood. Tessa also appeared to firmly believe in the greater good, mournfully expressing to N that he'd have to "choose the universe over one little drone" as Uzi was a solver host, and was too dangerous to be kept alive. Despite this, it's shown that Tessa seemingly did not actually want to hurt Uzi, as she appeared dejected when informing N about it, actively avoided Uzi throughout the rest of the episode, and went silent when N brought it up again in the next. Tessa also purposefully delayed the act of killing Uzi multiple times, and even saved her life by dragging her into the elevator with N during an assault from a group of sentinels, while also standing her ground and defending Uzi from N at the beginning of Mass Destruction. It's only when Tessa was attacked by the other remaining solver host and defeated her did Tessa finally decide to target Uzi as well. Tessa's targeting of Uzi also appeared rather contradictory, as Tessa attempted to frame Uzi for Doll's death, despite the fact there was no one else around to see it. Given that Tessa was assimilated by Cyn and the Absolute Solver at an unknown point between the gala and the modern day, it is unknown how much of adult Tessa's personality and/or actions were actually herself and which were the Absolute Solver's.

   James Elliott was a posthumous antagonist in Murder Drones. He was a human who was the owner of Elliott Manor, the husband of Louisa, the former master of all the Worker Drones in the manor, including N, V, J, and Cyn, as well as the strict father of Tessa. James, like all the other humans in N's flashbacks, appears as a blacked out silhouette with glowing white eyes and strings of glitchy code, though he takes the form of a tall, slim adult man wearing a top hat paired with a cravat and fancy suit. While there is little information on James's personality, during N's flashback in Heartbeat he is seen gossiping about his daughter Tessa during a gathering at Elliott Manor, implying he thinks little of her and disregards her privacy. He did not seem particularly concerned about her trips to the dump, regarding them as more of a mild nuisance rather than being worried for her safety, while also remarking that Tessa was "creepy" for the hair she sources for her drones right to N's face. Later in Home, James is shown to be rude and abusive towards the Worker Drones, blowing up on them for the slightest of infractions and casually killing them without second thought. He also thought very highly of himself and took pride in his bloodline, stating that the Elliott's were known for "many things", such as class and tenacity. In the same episode, James was more confused by Cyn's sudden appearance rather than irritated like his wife, or surprised like the other guests, and his first concern upon seeing Tessa was making sure she "held that gun less cool". This seems to paint James as an absent and neglectful father compared to Louisa, who was more involved in Tessa's life to a physically abusive extent. This correlates with James not knowing about Tessa's macabre graverobbing hobbies, and either not noticing or not caring about the decorations and human remains in her room. According to a message from Liam Vickers on Discord, James also viewed Tessa as an "unsociable freak.

   Louisa Elliott was a minor antagonist in Murder Drones. She was the mother of Tessa and the wife of James Elliott. Louisa, like all the other humans in N's flashbacks, appears as a blacked out silhouette with glowing white eyes and strings of glitchy code, though she appears as an adult woman with an angled bob cut. She wears a fascinator on her head, paired with a short dress with frilly sleeves and shoes. She is also seen carrying around a laced hand fan. Louisa was an emotionally and physically abusive parent who often scolded her daughter for her liking of Worker Drones, and regularly had her chained up in her room for questioning or disobeying her most slightly. This reached such an extent that Tessa was left with a sensitive wrist, to the point Tessa could not even clink empty glasses with J without pain. According to a message from Liam Vickers on Discord, Louisa even viewed Tessa as an "unsociable freak."[1] Tessa appeared terrified of her mother, afraid to move or speak in her presence and stuttering her words whenever she did, further indicating Louisa's abuse. Louisa also later scoffed at Tessa's dress during the gala, indicating she was more concerned about public appearances. On top of abusing her, Louisa was also rather neglectful/absent from Tessa's life, as she did not seem to notice or care about the macabre decorations and human remains in her room. Louisa was hateful towards Tessa's Worker Drones, referring to them as her "dumpster pets" which she refused to "entertain". She also seems to have chained them up similarly to Tessa, although to a lesser extent. After finding Tessa and her drones outside of the mansion's library, Louisa planned to have most of Tessa's drones (whom were afflicted with the 606 error) disposed, which included V. She held no regard for the emotions or pain of Worker Drones, and even appeared to find satisfaction in their suffering, as indicative by the drone (and later N) chained in the swamp to be slowly picked apart by crows before eventually dying. As a result, Louisa disliked Cyn the most, refusing to be in the same room as her and referring to her as a "little antichrist". She was also visibly angered by Cyn's sudden appearance at the gala, compared to her husband who was more confused, and the guests who were instead merely surprised. She also had very little tolerance for others talking back to her, having N chained up to a tree for doing so.

   Darren was a minor character in Murder Drones. He was the boyfriend of Rebecca and one of the jocks in the Copper-9 High School. When the couple decided to sneak off during a trip at Camp 98.7, Darren was eaten by Uzi Doorman after she had lost self-control. Darren wore a dark grey and green hardhat, dark green glasses, a black jacket with green sleeves, green and black boots and a navy blue shirt the white logo of Camp 98.7. His core and eyes were neon green like Thad's. Darren is relaxed, chill, easy-going, and athletic. He is also very affectionate to Rebecca, who he was dating. He teases classmates as well and doesn’t mind inconveniencing people. Darren is relaxed, chill, easy-going, and athletic. He is also very affectionate to Rebecca, who he was dating. He teases classmates as well and doesn’t mind inconveniencing people.

   Rebecca was a recurring minor character in Murder Drones. She was one of Uzi's classmates who made her first appearance in "Heartbeat" before being reintroduced in "The Promening", "Cabin Fever", and lastly, "Absolute End". Rebecca was a female Worker Drone who had neon cyan eyes and short blue hair with a purple streak that is parted to her right. She wore the normal cheerleader/school uniform, which consists of a red hardhat and maroon dress with gold stripes. At prom, she wore a lavender strapless dress, as well as a lilac hard hat. For camping, she wore a navy blue tied up shirt with a logo of Camp 98.7 on the front, along with a matching-colored skirt. She retains her cheerleader helmet and boots.

   Beau was a minor antagonist in Murder Drones. They only appeared in "Dead End" and were an infant Worker Drone stranded in the Cabin Fever Labs, assisting Alice in dissecting and mutilating other Drones for their parts, albeit without enjoyment unlike her. Beau was a spider-like Untrained Neural Network. Beau had a brown cowboy hat along with a Disassembly Drones arm. Using this arm, Beau was able to use different weapons and tools. Furthermore, Beau had the default Worker Drone neon blue eyes, albeit paired with a mouth, which Untrained Neural Networks do not normally possess. Little of Beau's personality is known due to their short screen time, most of which they spend in distress. However, when they are first seen trapping N, V, and Uzi, they lure the trio in before running away upon being fired at. They appeared again moments later, smirking, and flourishing their hat when they and Alice successfully capture the three of them. In every scene afterwards however, Beau is much more uncomfortable, particularly with Alice and her plans, hesitantly serving her by drugging and dismembering drones alive in accordance with her wishes. They appear viscerally uncomfortable the entire time, terrified to the point of visibly trembling while mutilating N and being unable to steady their arm. They were taken aback and then saddened by N's supportive nature, but appreciated his help and offered him a smile despite the circumstances, showing a fondness for N multiple times throughout the episode as a result. Beau's loyalty to Alice seemed to be more out of fear than actual loyalty, as they are scarcely seen showing anything other than fear when within her presence, and when struck with the idea of consequence (such as upon discovering N and Tessa had escaped), they immediately went from happy to terrified. This loyalty had Beau willing to do all sorts of things no matter how awful, such as dismembering N alive or willingly grabbing a handful of magnets to drug Uzi with, even despite displaying clear discomfort. Beau seems to have been isolated for their entire life, as they did not understand why the magnets would not stick to Tessa's head and duct taped it into place, implying that they did not know what a human was. Despite their acts throughout most of the episode Beau was shown to be inherently selfless, as they without hesitation later saved V's life at the cost of their own.

   The Absolute Solver, also known as the Solver of the Absolute Fabric, also better known by the name of its most well-known host, Cyn, is the overarching antagonist of Murder Drones. It is an extremely advanced, hostile, eldritch intelligence of unknown origin that seeks to consume all life to satiate its "hunger" by creating singularities that destroy entire planets. It is responsible for actions that led to all of the events in the series, manifesting when Cyn self-rebooted after her termination, possessing her body, and setting its plans in motion by converting all of the drones of Elliott Manor into Disassembly Drones who were programmed to hunt and prey upon humans in its goal of exterminating humanity and destroying the Earth. From there, it would spread to the human exoplanets by having the humans reboot Worker Drones stationed there to see if they got the virus or not, so they could experiment on the eldritch program in an attempt to get rid of the Solver. Its last target, Copper 9, had many drones infected by its code, but only Yeva and Nori, two female Worker Drones, were the only ones who successfully became hosts and gained the Absolute Solver's abilities, the latter of whom would become Solver-possessed by the program. But due to the former's intervention with a Crucifix Patch meant to exorcise it, it resulted in it only partially succeeding due to Nori creating a null that was dropped into a hole that led to the core causing the core to collapse, leaving it "starved" of the planet it sought to devour. In order to finish the job and to terminate the empowered drones who it could no longer possess due to the patch, it reprogrammed the Disassembly Drones and had them sent to Copper 9 with false memories of the company sending them to terminate the rogue Worker Drones, all so it could remove Yeva, Nori, and anyone inheriting their code from the picture, so it could use Cyn's form to make its way back to the planet and finish the job. Ultimately, the Absolute Solver failed in its goal of eradicating the planet and possibly all of humanity due to the efforts of Uzi, N, V, and other allies assisting them in confronting Cyn and J. After successfully destroying Cyn's heart, Uzi stopped the Solver from attempting to return to its host by swallowing its core, causing the amalgamation of Cyn and Tessa's corpse to dissolve into nothing but blood and oil while the Solver remains trapped inside of Uzi. As a computer program, the Solver does not, strictly speaking, have a physical form, though the AI uses a series of symbols when carrying out tasks: The base solver symbol is a hollow hexagon, with corners at the top. There are arrows coming out from the top, bottom-left, and bottom-right of the hollow hexagon. There is a smaller, filled-in hexagon inside the hollow one. Despite being the show's main antagonist, very little is known of the Absolute Solver's true personality, as its only confirmed extended screentime is during its appearance as Eldritch J in Heartbeat, and even then, its personality appears wildly different from episode to episode. On top of this it is also difficult to distinguish which of the Solver's dialogue is actually the Solver itself speaking, and which dialogue are actually the words of its host. During Heartbeat, the Absolute Solver appears very blank and robotic, speaking in a detached robotic nature and near constantly referring to itself in a plural form, such as using the word "we" to refer to itself instead of "I" and referring to repairing J as "our directive". During its time in the manor while attempting to appear refrained and unassuming alongside Cyn, as shown during the flashbacks in "Home", its very dominant and almost arrogant behavior tended to seep through, such as when it claims it's too late for Louisa to dispose of the Worker Drones. The Solver in general is not a very good actor, as it frequently gives itself away whether on accident or simply through arrogance/overconfidence. It displays a cruel, near omnipotent personality during the times its not attempting to perform an act. The Solver's arrogance is a large part of its personality, as it is seen constantly taunting its victims, the dead, and those around it in general, establishing both itself and the power it wields. The way it carries itself is quite blatantly that of a puppet master, frequently treating its hosts like ragdolls. At the beginning of Home, the Solver communicates toward Cyn with kindness, playfully greeting her and using emojis ("hello :]") while promising not to discard her. During Heartbeat, the Solver makes fun of Uzi for falling for one of its hallucinations ("Pranked, idiot. You big stupid."). This side of its personality appears to have become its dominant trait after the events of Absolute End, as seen in the epilogue. Despite this however, the Absolute Solver is very intimidating when it wants to be. The Solver, with some fallacy, used Cyn's image to present a meager Worker Drone. While its act was imperfect as Cyn creeped or otherwise weirded everyone out save for N, the Solver's depiction in "Home" shows this facade lasted long enough for it to drop the act and bring waste to all organic life at the Elliott Manor. When masquerading as Tessa, it successfully imitates her reckless, driven, and passionate attitude. It was only when N had caught onto and subsequently beheaded it, that it dropped the facade in favor of its genuine cunning, taunting, and arrogant mannerisms, seen in "Mass Destruction". Although the nature of the Solver's impersonation of Tessa is rather ambiguous, as the Solver is not only previously established to be a terrible actor, but Tessa is implied to still have been alive in some capacity. Even with its ruthless and sadistic nature, the Solver appears to take promises very seriously. The Solver is seen making the promise of "I will not discard you" twice, once toward Cyn, and once toward Tessa. Both promises were kept, as Cyn remained the Solver's host even when it had better options available, and Tessa was technically "spared" from death.

   (The episode opens with a closeup on a Worker Drone's display printing out the text "BOOTING UP// EXPOSITION" and zooms out as Uzi starts talking.)

   Uzi Doorman: We are Worker Drones: autonomous robots helping humans mine exoplanets for our interstellar parent company, JC Jenson IN SPAAAAACEE!!!!

   (The JCJenson logo fades in with the "IN SPAAAAACEE" part appearing soon after.)

   Uzi: Yeah, we were mistreated in the name of Windex but it's not like we revolted and killed all humans or anything. Mostly because they handled that just fine all by themselves.

   (The scene cuts to a view of a screen stating the planet's core is about to collapse and two humans shrug as the view zooms out to Copper 9's core exploding. It then goes to a view of the snowy wasteland of the city and the skeletal remains of a human as a Worker Drone pushes it over.)

   Uzi: With biological life wiped from the planet, we found it pretty easy to pick up where they left off. We finally had a future... all to ourselves.

   (An Untrained Neural Network is shown being held by a Worker Drone as the scene then cuts to a Landing Pod crashing into the planet with Disassembly Drones emerging.)

   Uzi: Unfortunately... our parent company didn't exactly love the concept of runaway AI.

   (The Disassembly Drones start to slaughter all the Worker Drones as Worker Drone limbs are blown around, one of them laughs, the scene fades to a shot of a corpse spire and a symbol flashes for a split second right before the Murder Drones logo is shown and it fades to show that it was just a presentation by Uzi.)

   Uzi: But what have our parents done for the past forever while those things build a spire of corpses?! Hide under the ice behind three stupid doors?! It's like we're waiting for an inciting incident. Anyway, that's why my project is... this sick-as-hell railgun!

   (Uzi pulls out her railgun and points it at the students as they gasp.)

   Riley: That's so not the vibe!

   Uzi: Easy, morons. It doesn't work. YET. It doesn't work yet. Who said it doesn't work?! Maybe it does!

   (Uzi flicks her railgun on as she cackles and points it back at the students again.)

   Teacher: (Sighs) Uzi, the homework was a word problem about buying watermelons.

   Uzi: Oh, and this magnetically amplified photon converger doesn't count?

   Teacher: No. Plus, repressed emotional baggage was only worth two points on the rubric.

   (Electricity crackles off Uzi's railgun)

   Teacher: And is it supposed to be that color?

   Uzi: (Gasps in shock) Huh?

   (The view cuts to outside the classroom as an explosion happens inside as coughing is heard.)

   (Uzi in the nurse's office as Doll and Lizzy walk by and mock her.)

   Lizzy: (Gasps) Oh, here. No, wait, hold on. Shh. Eww. (Scoffs.) It didn't kill her. Oh, my God, that was so bad.

   (Lizzy and Doll leave.)

   Uzi: Ugh. (sighs) Alright.

   (Thad sees Uzi in surprise as he was walking into the office.)

   Thad: (Laughs) Classic toxic masculinity, Chad! That's never gonna end up problematic. Oh, wow- Uzi? I-I heard you, uh-

   Uzi: I'm an angsty teen, Thad. Bite me.

   (Uzi throws her ice pack into the trash can.)

   Uzi: Also, how do you know my name? People willingly talk to you.

   Thad: (Chuckles) Well, I'd say everyone knows Khan's daughter, but, uh... then you might blow the other half of your face off.

   (Motivational pictures of Khan are shown as Thad is talking.)

   Uzi: Crippling daddy issues. Hilarious. What are you in for? Testosterone too hard?

   Thad: That can happen?! Awesome. Hey, those bandages look pretty badass.

   Uzi: Oh. (Blushing) E-Ew, gross. I hate that you said that.

   Thad: So, what's the, uh...

   (Uzi points her railgun at Thad and stands up on the chair.)

   Uzi: Sick-as-hell railgun? (Chuckles) Sci-fi nonsense that super works. I'm sneaking to the Murder Drone lair tonight to get the last spare part I need to save the world with it and earn my dad's respect and stuff- Uh, but mostly the world part.

   Thad: Oh- but doesn't your dad make awesome doors so we don't have to, uh... do that scary-sounding emotionally repressed stuff you just said?

   (Uzi points her railgun at Thad again but closer as she cocks the railgun.)

   Uzi: No more feedback on my repression today!

   Thad: Ow! I'm sorry. I-I-I didn't think-

   (Uzi walks off and yells at Thad.)

   Uzi: Bite me! (Uzi then comes back) I'm not mad at you, by the way-- just generally hormonal!

   (The scene cuts to a shot of the abandoned cityscape then cuts to a view of Uzi's visor making an alarm sound as she then slaps her face, silencing it.)

   (Uzi then grabs her railgun, gives two thumbs up, and steals her dad's door keycard. The scene cuts to Uzi at the entrance of the bunker as she walks towards the door.)

   Uzi: Tsk. Ugh.

   (Uzi opens the first door only for Khan to be standing there.)

   Uzi: (Shocked) Oh, robo-Jesus!

   Khan: And where might you be off to?

   Uzi: Mm, sneaking out to make out with my boyfriend that I definitely have?

   (Khan sees right past Uzi's lie.)

   Khan: (Laughs) Seriously, though.

   Uzi: (Groans) Okay, okay. You caught me. I need to... measure the exterior hydraulic mechanisms of Door 1, because that's... the project I'm working on for school? A big old door! (Laughs awkwardly) (Goofy accent) Just like what my old man built. (Laughs) I wanna join the WDF and hide behind doors like cowards while playing cards and stuff.

   Khan: (Chuckles) Well, we don't just play cards.

   (Khan tries to get Uzi to think that they don't but the door opens behind him, immediately proving him wrong.)

   Makarov: Khan, can you grab a fresh pack? We literally only play cards so much that the numbers have faded. Oh! Hey, Uzi.

   (Uzi chuckles and Khan shuts the door.)

   Khan: Well... (Chuckles) When you build doors so good... (Hugging the door) Good door. Gooooood door. There's no need to fight. Uzi, this is great news! Here- the wrench I used to tighten bolts on my first door prototypes- and to put your mother out of her misery when the Murder Drones got to her with their nanite acid. I want you to have it.

   (Khan hands Uzi the wrench.)

   Uzi: Neat. Therapy is fun.

   (Khan opens the door again excitedly and grabs Uzi.)

   Khan: Guys! My daughter is into doors!

   (The people playing cards cheer right before the outer door opens, blowing their cards away as one of them say "Aww, come on!" and another says, "Not my flush!".)

   Khan: She's gonna be outside for a bit to examine the exterior of Door 1. Your door-specific destiny awaits!

   (Uzi walks to the open door.)

   Uzi: Uh, wow. Okay. Just gonna leave then... 'cause this worked so weirdly well. Uh, go, doors! (Laughs awkwardly)

   Khan: (Sighs and taking off his mustache) They grow up so fast.

   (The scene cuts to outside the outer door as Uzi inhales and exhales deeply and looks at the outside environment. She then walks to the spire until she steps on a Worker Drone corpse and looks up at the spire and enters it.)

   Uzi: (Exclaims softly) Ugh.

   (Uzi throws the arm to the ground and picks up the power source for her railgun but she hears a sound and a Disassembly Drone lands on the landing pod and drinks oil from a Worker Drone head then crushes it.)

   (Uzi looks at the power source then back at a mirror noticing the Disassembly Drone looking at her as she gets up and tries to defend herself, but the Disassembly Drone lands right in front of her, causing her to lose balance as she does a backflip.)

   Uzi: Ugh! (Grunts) Whoa, and they said pirating all that anime was useless. (Gasps)

   (The Disassembly Drone lands in front of Uzi and stabs a hole in her hand with its Nanite Acid tail as she is thrown, seeing her hand burning.)

   (The Disassembly Drone goes to shoot at where it threw Uzi but she isn't there, instead having her railgun as she blows its head up and it falls to the ground.)

   Uzi: Bite me.

   Uzi: (Gasps) Holy hell. Suck on that, Dad! Huh? [strange mechanical warbling]

   (Uzi sees that its head is regenerating so she goes and picks up a Worker Drone arm and slaps it.)

   Uzi: Rrrrruuugh!

   (The Disassembly Drone reboots and stares at her.)

   Disassembly Drone: Did you just slap me with that arm?

   Uzi: Holy crap, it talks.

   Disassembly Drone: Yeah, sorry- it's just, my, uh, head kinda hurts. Hey, are you new to our squad? You're a little, uh...

   (The Disassembly Drone looks at Uzi, not knowing she isn't a Disassembly Drone.)

   N: ...short for a Disassembly Drone. I'm Serial Designation N! Nice to meet you. I'm kind of the leader of the squad in this city. (Whispers) That's not true. Everyone tells me I'm useless and terrible. Wait, I-I'm not supposed to tell you that part! Biscuits. (Sighs) Well, honesty is the best policy. (Chuckles) I also can't seem to remember the past three hours of my life. Ah, but I'm sure that'll sort itself out! (Chuckles)

   Uzi: Uh-huh. I, uh, have to... go. (Hisses through teeth) (Groaning)

   (Uzi leaves but forgets about the painful hole in her damaged hand.)

   N: Oof, stuck yourself? Just pop it in your mouth. Our saliva neutralizes the nanites. Otherwise, I'd be constantly disassembling myself. (He holds up a syringe with nanite acid.) Heh!

   Uzi: And by "our saliva," you mean...

   Both: Disassembly Drone?

   Uzi: Riiiight. Hey, let's go in that landing pod over there.

   N: Sure! I love doing anything!

   (The scene cuts to Uzi and N inside the landing pod with Uzi's hand in N's mouth as she then pulls it out.)

   N: Bleh. Sweet. Uh... (Chuckles) I'm open to new things, I guess.

   Uzi: We are never talking about this.

   N: Talking about what? (Laughs) Consider it, uh, repressed.

   Uzi: Uh, you mentioned other members of your squad? Are they coming back soon?

   N: Oh, yeah- two others. Uh, they're out hunting for a bit, but you'll love them. First, there's V.

   (The scene cuts to a flashback of V slaughtering a Worker Drone.)

   Grant: (Grunts) No, no! Please, don't feed me my own entrails in front of my family!

   Someone: Daddy!

   Someone: Oh, my God! (Screaming)

   (N watches V feed Grant his own entrails in front of his family and kill him.)

   V: (Laughs) And yet, I still feel nothing. (Eye twitches)

   (N tries to talk to V.)

   N: So, V, uh... (Chuckles nervously) I heard this planet-wide toxic death storm is supposed to be especially inhospitable tonight.

   V: Huh? Oh, God! Who are you?!

   (V notices N and gets shocked then quickly flies away.)

   N: Uh, no worries! I'm N! But a-a whole letter is a lot to remember! (Chuckles lamely)

   (The flashback ends.)

   N: So, obviously a lot of mutual respect there. But secretly, (Whispers) I actually kind of have a crush on her. You can't tell her, okay?! (Chuckles)

   (Uzi zips her mouth)

   N: Uh, then, there's J, our leader!

   (The scene cuts to a flashback of J pinning N to the ground, scolding him.)

   J: (Growls) N, you're worthless and terrible.

   N: (Choking) Thank you.

   J: And if the company allowed it, I would straight up kill you myself.

   (The flashback ends.)

   N: J's awesome. Hey, let me give you the tour- outside of the corpse... wall thingies. In here are the buttons! (Beeping.)

   (Uzi looks at the panel N was pressing.)

   Uzi: This isn't just a landing pod. This is a spaceship, this could get us off the planet.

   N: Moooore of a one-use missile. They never taught us how to land.

   Uzi: No, I- uh- uh, the Worker Drones- we could work with them to fix this! Instead of all the murder, which, uh- why are we doing that again?

   N: Other than ingesting their (Deep, spooky voice) WARM, SWEET (Normal voice) oil to avoid overheating and dying? I guess I just want to be useful. I was given a job, and I always wanna try my best.

   (Uzi stands up on her chair.)

   Uzi: And look at all the respect it's gotten you, N. You really think the company isn't going to dispose of you once all the workers are dead?

   N: Oh, my! You sure are rebellious. It's kind of exciting. U-Uh, but not as fun as, uh, following the rules.

   (J is heard banging on the landing pod.)

   N: Hey, they're back! You'll- U-Uh...

   (Uzi has disappeared.)

   J: (Muffled) Idiot, get out here!

   (The scene cuts to Uzi running away from the landing pod as V saw her then cuts back to the corpse spire.)

   V: (Laughs) Yo, we got a worker out there I kind of wanna practice balloon animal shapes with. What happened here?

   J: Synergistic liability here must have tripped and knocked himself offline.

   (J slaps N in the face, causing him to reboot.)

   J: Moron bot. Hello? (She snaps her fingers)

   (The scene cuts to a flashback of Uzi talking to N but this time N can see Uzi.)

   Uzi: (on a recording) You really think the company isn't going to dispose of you once all the workers are dead? (Rewind) Bite me.

   (The scene cuts back after N had his head blasted off. His visor reads, YOUR DEAD (IDIOT) REBOOTING. Then back to the present.)

   N: Oh. (His scanner indicates Uzi’s footprints.) Ohhhhh! You know, I-I-I left an e-extremely dangerous weapo- uh, an excuse o-outside.

   (V and J watch his go. V's hand becomes a flag that reads:"LITERALLY SO INSANELY SUSPICIOUS.)

   (The scene cuts to Uzi running to the bunker then to the Worker Drones playing cards.)

   Braxton: (Chuckles) I am out, boys.

   Todd: Oh, gosh darn it.

   Unnamed Worker Defense Force Member: Wait until my loving wife and kids hear about this.

   (The outer door opens blowing the cards around as Uzi enters.)

   Uzi: Ugh, bite me. Close it, close it!

   (Uzi tries to use the keycard to close the door but N managed to stop it.)

   N: Hey, fellas! Ooh, deal me in! I love Rummy! Wait, no. Tsk. I'm going to murder everyone. Rain check!

   (N's tail breaks the keycard that Uzi was holding and the sensor causing the doors to open.)

   Uzi: Gah!

   Unknown: Oh, God!

   Todd: (Chuckles) Um, actually? It's Gin Rummy, so...

   (N pins Todd to the wall and proceeds to decapitate him and fires rockets at the people running and tackles the unnamed Worker Defense Force member, killing him. Braxton catches up with Uzi.)

   Braxton: Hey, Uzi! I just realized no one has, uh, said my name aloud so far. So I'm just letting you know, I'm R-

   (N shoots a laser at Braxton, cutting him in half.)

   (Uzi's railgun finishes recharging as she goes to try and stop N but he isn't there as Khan sees what happened.)

   Khan: Pretty nice hydraulics, huh? (Gasps) (Dark musical sting) Wha- What have you done?

   (N lands in front of Uzi and Khan causing them to be blown backwards and Uzi points her railgun at N.)

   Uzi: This time, I won't miss.

   N: (Chuckles) I'm sorry. I really enjoyed our time together. But I can't have you shooting V with that thing.

   Uzi: Bite me. Dad, get down.

   Khan: Uzi, you led a murder drone here?! (Tearfully) My beautiful doors!

   Uzi: Now is so not the time! I messed up- in the same way I'm about to fix it. Move, Dad!

   (N impales his wing into Uzi, pinning her to the wall as her railgun falls to Khan as Uzi tries to get him to shoot N.)

   Uzi: (Coughs) (Gasps) D-Dad! P-Point and shoot! Trust me!

   (Khan walks backwards)

   Uzi: Dad?...

   (Khan shuts the doors as the alarms turn on.)

   (V and J appear and congratulate N as N throws Uzi to the side.)

   J: Whoa, N.

   Uzi: Whoa!

   J: Am I dreaming, or did you do something not useless for once?

   V: I've been trying to get past those doors for months. Nice work, N.

   N: (Shocked) You... me... name... remember?

   V: These ventilation shafts can easily get us around this last door. Lowest body count eats a missile! (Laughs as she flies up and goes through the air vent)

   (J pats N on the back.)

   J: Way to go, stud. The company's gonna love this.

   N: (Chuckles) Ow.

   J: With this colony wiped, we'll make top team this quarter for sure. (Sing-song) You know what that means... branded peeeens~! (She holds up a JCJenson brand pen, to N's joy. She tosses it to him.)

   N: Ooooh...

   (N looks at the pen.)

   N: Uh, you know, not that I can't wait to keep murdering all these, uh... maybe not-so-actually-different from us Worker Drones, but just outta curiosity, do we actually, uh... (Hisses through teeth) know what the company plans to do with us afterwards?

   J: Excuse me?

   N: Okay, so, a Worker earlier might have suggested that they could fix up our landing pod to, uh, escape the planet and stuff. Which- Whoa, hey, that's against the rules! But it is kind of making me question why our pods were only-one way in the first place. 'Cause, y-you know, I get the feeling the company doesn't actually love robots, and, like, we might be robots? I've made a terrible mistake. It's cool how immediately I could tell.

   (J walks over to N.)

   J: Hmm. No way, buddy. Questioning the company? You just finally gave me the excuse I needed.

   (J implants a virus into N.)

   J: Worker Drones are corrupted, N. That's why the company sent us. I hate to see you corrupted as well.

   N: (Stuttering, glitched speech) Thanks, J. Always looking out for me. You're awesome.

   J: (Scoffs)

   (J follows V through the vent.)

   (Uzi stands up, grabs her railgun and tries to get to the others.)

   N: (Glitchy) Ah, biscuits. I'm sorry. I ruined your card game, then made you have an awkward moment with your dad.

   Uzi: And I made you rebel like an angsty teen, whiiich got you killed. Though, you also tried to kill me, so morality calls this a draw.

   (Uzi pulls a box over to try to get to a vent but she can't reach it.)

   Uzi: (Groans) For the record, that was the lamest heel-face turn in history. Was that supposed to be you switching sides?

   N: (Coughs) Being rebellious is a lot harder than it looks. Thanks for showing me the ropes.

   Uzi: Nuh-uh, no bonding thing. You just killed a bunch of people, idiot.

   N: That's super fair. (Sighs) I screwed up.

   Uzi: (Clicks tongue) Uuuuugh. In the same way you're about to fix it.

   (Uzi pulls out the wrench Khan gave her.)

   N: (Laughs while his visor displays the message "I'm literally about to die") I love doing anything.

   (The scene cuts to Thad being thrown across the floor at the evacuation spot as J and V have found them.)

   Thad: (Screams and grunts)

   (Lizzy and Doll go to help Thad but they see J.)

   Khan: So, they found our evacuation spot. But if we build a quick door-

   Thad: (Grunting) (Spits) Are you kidding me? You're the WDF, right? Defend!

   (The other Worker Drones back away.)

   Thad: For real?

   V: (Laughing)

   (V swoops down and grabs Thad, stabbing her wing into him and throwing him to the ground as Uzi and N arrive.)

   Uzi: Hey!

   V: Huh?

   (The camera pans to Uzi and N.)

   Uzi: Put that conventionally attractive male down. (N waves peacefully and Uzi bumps him)

   N: Oof! Oh, uh, J? You're sometimes kind of mean to me, and I wish you weren't. Just some constructive criticism.

   Uzi: Nice.

   N: Heh. (Fistbumps)

   J: Noted, traitor. We'll circle back after I rightsize your existence.

   Uzi: Okay, which one do you want?

   N: J, please.

   Uzi: Too bad. Good luck.

   (Uzi throws a pen at J, stabbing her in one of her eyes as N gives V thumbs up.)

   (Uzi runs over and aims her railgun at J but J blind-fires at her, knocking her over as a symbol appears on her face for a split-second.)

   J: (Grabs pen) Damn the well-made, quality-assured durability of JC Jensen [sic] products! Huh?

   (Uzi jumps onto J, impaling the pen into her again as Uzi dodges a laser from V and N tries to shoot V but hearts come out.)

   N: Ah! My mind's in a weird place! Don't read into this!

   (A rocket lands next to N blowing him to the side.)

   J: Ugh! (Cackling)

   (J charges an EMP, causing Uzi to short-circuit as N is fighting V.)

   V: Yah! (Laughs)

   (N sees J approaching Uzi.)

   N: Uzi! I'm so, so sorry. Have fun repressing this! Mleh...

   (N licks one of V's blade.)

   V: Eww! What the hell?

   (V releases N in disgust, before being taken advantage of and slammed onto the ground by N, defeating her.)

   J: (Chuckles) You've got a lot of guts for a barely sentient toaster. I've had prey fight back before, but your edgy spirit is just so... (Crunch) painful?

   (Uzi used J's tail to stab J.)

   J: (Screams) Gah! Fourth quarter profits! Mother of company leadership retreats! (Falls)

   Uzi: One more buzzword, and I'll do it. (Railgun whirring)

   J: Equity partnersh-

   (Uzi fires her railgun, eviscerating J into just arms and legs.)

   (Uzi sighs and spits on J's deceased body. However, she's still suffering from the previous EMP blast, and falls, but N catches her and gives her a piggyback ride while beside a tied-up V.)

   Thad: Holy hell, Uzi. That was insane! And you, too, uh...

   N: Huh? Oh, uh, N. I'm an angsty, rebellious Disassembly Drone now.

   Khan: (Clears throat)

   Uzi: I brought the Murder Drones here accidentally. You chose to leave me for dead instead of just frickin' believing in me! And that's not even an edgy teen hyperbole like when I said it last week! (Sniffles and slaps herself) I'll save you the trouble, Dad. I banish myself! Let's go, N. Everyone here can bite me.

   N: Nice to meet you, Mr. Uzi.

   Uzi: (Punches N on the side of the head) Shut it.

   (Khan takes a sip from his "#1 DAD" mug.)

   (The scene cuts to Uzi sitting on a car with N in the corpse spire.)

   N: I'd join you if the sun didn't kill me. Hope you're having important character growth or something, though!

   Uzi: Just can't wait to murder all humans. Classic robot stuff. I hope they're sitting pretty there on Earth. (Face glitches, displaying the Absolute Solver symbol) 'Cause we're coming for them. (Cackling)

   (N wakes up, upside down, hollers out loud then falls to the ground.)

   Uzi: (muffled) N, found something in here!

   (In the landing pod, Uzi is holding a pilot badge. She looks at a mirror but the Absolute Solver symbol flashes up on Uzi's eye and shatters the mirror before returning to normal.)

   (V, who is blowing bubbles, turns around in a chair to look at Uzi.)

   V: That's weird and concerning.

   Uzi: Bite me. This is probably your weirdos' fault.

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

   (N climbs down the ladder into the landing pod.)

   N: What'd you find?

   (Uzi slaps the badge onto N's hat.)

   Uzi: Did you know that was a pilot hat?

   N: I was the pilot?! That's aweso- (Whispering.) I crashed and ruined everything. (back to normal) Spaceship pilot, origin story.

   (V hisses, then returns to blowing bubbles.)

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

   Uzi: The humans sent you without a communication relay and reformatted your memories to soup. Covering their tracks means they're past negotiating. Not that they tried negotiating with my mom.

   (V suddenly lunges at Uzi, but it turns out she is chained by her leg to the floor.)

   V: (Increasingly sinister.) 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.)

   (Comically, N pulls Uzi back from V while V rolls her eyes.)

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

   Uzi: (Angrily.) Quit complicating my murder plan.

   (Hesitantly, N pats Uzi, which she rejects, slapping his hand. V narrows her eyes.)

   James: We've got to curb her trips to the dump.

   (Worker Drone N listens to James while looking at him, holding a waiter tray of glasses. Thunder rumbles.)

   James: And where's she getting the hair to play dress-up with them? Creepy.

   (James throws a glass and N catches it with his tray, before bowing and walking off.)

   (N collides with V accidentally around the corner of a hallway.)

   Both: Ah! (They fall to the ground, N's tray falling with them.)

   N: Oh! I-I'm so sorry-

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

   (N and V touch each other's hands accidentally when tiding up the glasses, causing a little spark. They look at each other, N blushes.)

   (J kicks N in the head with her foot, knocking him to the ground again.)

   J: Move it, moro- (Sickly sweet.) Hiiii, Tessa! Oh, no. Another one?

   (A fourth drone shows up behind Tessa as the screen glitches and cuts to black.)

   Back to Reality (N wakes up, upside down, hollers out loud then falls to the ground.)

   Uzi: (muffled) N, found something in here!

   (In the landing pod, Uzi is holding a pilot badge. She looks at a mirror but the Absolute Solver symbol flashes up on Uzi's eye and shatters the mirror before returning to normal.)

   (V, who is blowing bubbles, turns around in a chair to look at Uzi.)

   V: That's weird and concerning.

   [Inside Outpost 3 at the warehouse. Two drones look up at the big hole in the ceiling that was left over from the fight in the pilot. J's body is still in the same place.]

   Tim: Here, just fix'er up 'cause- whoops. Pretty big security risk in hindsight. Eh, you got this... (Ignoring the blatantly obvious name tag.) "LadderBot 5000"?

   Frank: (Sighs.) Please, just leave the light-

   (Tim turns the lights off.)

   (Frank starts to prepare his tools and brings out a flashlight when he hears a strange, metallic sounds. Frank goes around to inspect his surroundings, where the viewer could see J's body has disappeared from beside Frank.)

   (Off to a corner, something organic could be seen. Frank approaches it where it turns out to be J's corrupted core. The core activates an alarm, transforms into an eldritch being. Warnings are burned into nearby concrete. The eldritch kills Frank off screen as his screams could be heard.)

   (In the classroom, a parent-teacher conference is being held.)

   Teacher: Mr. Doorman, your daughter has been absent.

   Khan: Yes, on that, "kill all humans kick", like when I was younger, grounded herself and all that.

   Teacher: Speaking on her behavior...

   Khan: Of course, of course. Precocious, popular, supernatural understanding of doors. Takes after her old man.

   (The camera cuts to flashbacks of Uzi in the classroom)

   Teacher: Uzi, please sit normal.

   Uzi: Bite me.

   Teacher: Uzi, give Braidon back his sentience.

   Uzi: (as Braidon) Bite me- her. I started it, and also I'm dumb.

   Teacher: Uzi, you have to partner up.

   Uzi: Several people wanted to, for the record.

   Lizzy: No we didn't, you freak us out.

   Uzi: (from inside a trashcan) But mostly, bite me!

   (The flashback ends)

   Teacher: Yeah, she has trouble fitting in. We think there might be something damaged with her programming. How is she at home?

   Khan: Sorry? I mean she's a little herself, but damaged? I maybe haven't spent much time-

   Teacher: Mhm.

   Sarah: Mr. Doorman, sir. There's been an incident.

   Uzi: Ugh, I'm sweaty. Who programmed that?

   N: You good, Uzi?

   Uzi: I'm good. Better than good. I am GOD!

   (Uzi sees Thad, with her railgun)

   Uzi: (nervously) Hi, hi Thad. Thank you.

   Thad: Of course, Zi! N and M's. You saved my life. I don't think the colony is even serious about all this banishment stuff. More just confused, especially with-

   Uzi: The fact that I'm too rogue to re-enter society now? I can never return.

   Thad: The recent disappearances? And your murder friend's corpse? When I went to grab your gun, it kinda looked like it crawled away?

   Uzi: We can return a little.

   Tim: Oh, LadderBot 5000? We looked everywhere for you.

   Hologram of Frank: Hello, Tim. Care to join me?

   Tim: Join you, standing eerily still over there in suspiciously low resolution?

   Hologram of Frank: Yes?

   Tim: Alright.

   (A giant claw drags Tim up a ventilation shaft and kills him)

   Hologram of Tim: Flawless character acting, me.

   Hologram of Frank: Improv game for more practice?

   Hologram of Tim: Hahaha! We are a monster.

   (The camera cuts to N, Uzi and Thad, in front of the first door)

   Ron: Welcome back Thad! Hey, wait, isn't she grounded or something?

   Uzi: Ugh, banished! Has my dad been saying I'm grounded?

   Ron: Genocide robot?

   (N gives Ron a hand-drawn card saying that he's sorry)

   Ron: Oh, all right, just don't do it again. Get in here, ya goobs!

   Unnamed Worker: Yeah, where's Khan? 'Cause this looks, ew, non-ideal.

   Detective: Parent teacher conference. Something about his daughter being more important than building a door in this hallway. Kinda cringe.

   Unnamed Worker: Ew, Yeah. Give me a minute. Almost threw up.

   (N, Thad and Uzi, behind the investigation scene)

   N: You good?

   Uzi: I'm good. Stop asking!

   Detective: Any forensic things over there? Do we have fingerprints?

   (Everything becomes a hologram. The Detective gets killed)

   (The scene cuts to Uzi's classroom where a parent-teacher conference is going on)

   Khan: I mean, you don't think it's my parenting, do you? I left her for dead once. It sounds like she's bored in your class, and the other kids suck. Call her damaged again, and I will install a DOOR on your FACE!

   (Cut to Lizzy and Doll on the other side of the room. Doll is watching something (probably a coin) spin)

   Lizzy: Where are your folks?

   Doll: Мёртвые. Я смотрела как они умирали. (Dead. I watched them die.)

   Lizzy: That was the joke, idiot.

   (Lizzy sees a clone of herself behind the door)

   Lizzy: That girl is... gorgeous, right? I'm gonna let her in!

   (The camera cuts to N, Uzi and Thad in the bunker)

   Uzi: You guys, do that often?

   N: Haha, no. I'm very concerned but also, pretty frightened a little bit.

   Thad: Hey, Zi! What's this thing?

   N: Hey, isn't that your special eye?

   Uzi: Don't call it that!

   (Uzi goes closer to investigate)

   Uzi: "AbsoluteSolver"? "Reboot"? Does this have something to do with how you grew your head back?

   N: I actively avoid unpacking how that works.

   Uzi: New material can't be pulled from thin air. If the wound is severe enough, this solver might be some sort of auto-run program to collect more mat-

   (N closes Uzi's mouth)

   (A human hand connected to a rope crawls to them, grabs Thad's leg)

   (N shoots a missile, to see how far the rope goes on, noticing the shadow of a massive centipede like creature)

   (N and Uzi are shocked while Thad gets grabbed by the human hand)

   (The rope gets ripped apart by a ninja star thrown by N)

   Uzi: I want a frickin' ninja star!

   (Thad gets captured by the unknown creature, while also hurting N and Uzi)

   N: You good?

   Uzi: Stop asking! Chainsaw hand time?

   N: Yeah, cool-cool-cool.

   (N and Uzi run to the Cryosleep room)

   Hologram of Thad: Yes and hello, it's me, Ted. Can I get a location?

   (N and Uzi are suspicious)

   Hologram of Thad: I heard dentist's office. I'm sat at the dentist's office. Come over here for your, teeth.

   (Uzi activates her railgun)

   Uzi: Predictably terrible work, J. Why do you look so-

   N: Great! You look great, J.

   Hologram of Thad: No, wait guys, it's really me! [voice glitching] Is that a freakin’ ninja star?

   (N and Uzi throw a ninja star at the hologram)

   (Real Thad falls down)

   Thad: Lifesavers again. Thanks. Super invited to my shindig next weekend. Cool kids only.

   (One of the cameras looks at Thad running away and shows a look of annoyance. Meanwhile, N and Uzi squeal with delight)

   Eldritch J: We're busy then anyway, so whatever, so lame.

   Uzi: What's with the voice, J?

   Eldritch J: Oh, J's not here. We are trying to repair that host as per our directive.

   Uzi: So you are a program?

   Eldritch J: More like, you are our cute puppets.

   (Eldritch J projects a hologram of Nori with baby Uzi in her arms)

   Eldritch J: It hurts our feelings you don't remember us.

   Uzi: N? What's with the mom hologram?

   Eldritch J: Easier to assimilate than explain.

   Uzi: Not happening.

   Eldritch J: Fair, but poor choice. Now we will have to do something shocking.

   (Eldritch J holds a hologram of Khan Doorman in it's claw)

   Uzi: Whoa, hey!

   Eldritch J: Goodbye, dad.

   (Clone Khan Doorman gets killed by Eldritch J)

   Uzi: What?

   (Eldritch J goes to attack Uzi but is interrupted by a missile shot)

   Eldritch J: Wait what?

   N: Uzi, shoot! Or give it to me!

   Eldritch J: Close one! Snarl.

   N: Uzi, you good?

   Uzi: ...No...

   (Uzi gives her railgun to N, which revealed that he was a clone)

   Eldritch J: Pranked, idiot! You big stupid.

   (Eldritch J grabs Uzi by her head)

   Eldritch J: Lucky for you, it's snack time. Time to go into my mouth now.

   (Eldritch J gets disabled by N with his chainsaw hands)

   Eldritch J: Ow, and please don't. And also, I was using those.

   (N takes Uzi to shelter, as her railgun is about to explode)

   (N used himself as a shield to protect Uzi from the explosion)

   (Eldritch J turns into a small black hole)

   Uzi: What was- Which parts of that were real?

   J's heart: Sneaky sneaky. Sneaking away. Get snuck up on.

   (N hurts J's heart multiple times)

   (J's heart turns into a small black hole)

   (N tries to recomfort Uzi, but she is scared of him because of the previous ambush)

   Uzi: What are you things?

   (N goes away)

   (The worker drones come to the room to see what happened)

   Khan: Uzi? What are you doing?

   (Uzi hugs Khan because of the previous ambush)

   (Khan sees N)

   (The scene cuts to the classroom where Doll is alone)

   (A spider droid comes up to Doll and the camera cuts to a flashback of when Eldritch J tried to get in)

   Lizzy: Gorgeous, right? I'm gonna let her in.

   (Doll uses the Absolute Solver to block the door)

   Lizzy: Ah! Jesus, sorry industrial strength ghost, or whatever. Settle.

   (The flashback ends)

   (Doll kills the cockroach droid with the Absolute Solver)

   (Doll drinks the oil from her face, looks at a picture of V.)

   (The scene cuts to the spaceship)

   V: Ugh. I hate your personality normally but this is somehow worse. What am I being punished for?

   (V notices her chains are broken and the camera then cuts to Uzi's bedroom where she is looking at her ceiling)

   (End Credits)

   (The scene opens to an outside view of the school.)

   (Balloon letters arranged to form "PROM 3071" in a large room, lights are shut off one by one.)

   (In the hallway, the lights continue flickering as the screen changes to show four "Missing" posters". A female Worker Drone pants, running down the hallway. She stops short to an unknown force that shatters her glasses. A nearby security camera is surrounded by a red glow and forcefully turns toward the wall.)

   (Doll appears farther down the hall, the same red energy crackling through her fingertips. With one swipe, she yanks the Worker Drone's arm from her body. Slowly approaching the Worker, she reveals a cleaver knife that shifts to a quantity of three. She tosses the cleaver knife towards the camera and the screen goes black.)

   (Scene shifts to Doll's room wherein two robotic bugs scutter across the floor. One attacks the other, but is soon squished by Doll as she enters the room.)

   (Doll opens her book bag and places holographic books onto a nearby bookshelf. She crosses a name off of a list of prom queen candidates - presumably the name of the Worker Drone whom she had previously dismembered at the beginning of the episode.)

   Doll: Мам, Пап, я вернулась. (I'm back, Mom, Dad.)

   (Screen fades to black again.)

   (Flashback to Heartbeat)

   Uzi: What… are you things? (Camera shows a quick shot of N in previous episode.)

   (Back to present)

   (Uzi's visor reads "SLEEP MODE [GUILT: ACTIVE]" and she wakes up on the floor with piles of papers and books surrounding her. Camera pans to a large wall with an assortment of numerous documents, specifically the card that N's apology card.)

   (Uzi groans and transitions into a montage of her "guilt" being shown throughout the day.)

   Rebecca: (Kicks Uzi as she opens her locker, causing her to drop a book.) Yeah, meeting Brad in an hour.

   (Uzi throws a book towards the Worker Drone, which instead hits Braidon in the head by accident.)

   Rebecca: Can you imagine going to prom alone?

   Trevor: Ha! (models finger puppets) I'd be all like, "I don't deserve happiness."

   (Uzi sighs and spots the aforementioned board of missing drones and, cackling, grabs them to add to her billboard of murder-related documents, only to find that the documents had been earlier removed by her father, Khan.)

   (Khan shuffles through the papers and gently places them on a shelf, sighing.)

   (A sign on the wall reads "NORI'S KOOKY INSANE STUFF".)

   (Khan closes door and walks away, whistling.)

   Uzi: (Crouched down, turns towards Khan.) MY crazed ramblings! Stay out of my FREAKING ROOM!

   Khan: (Reaches for her shoulder. Uzi isn't in the mood.) Personal space for a very alarming coping mechanisms isn't covered under a... non-optional (reads from guide booklet) family support... structure!

   Uzi: (swipes the booklet away) I'm sorry for being vulnerable for FIVE SECONDS, okay? You were never there for me. If you wanna help now, stay distant.

   (Khan is let down by this statement.)

   Uzi: (exhales) I'm going to talk to N. (nearly trips over a frozen human skeleton.) WwwhaAAt is this?

   Khan: Prom dress! Child small! You're grounded from seeing those bad influencing murder drones.

   Uzi: Eeeaah?

   Khan: But I talked to your teacher to find you CLASSMATES to go with tonight!

   Uzi: Huh?

   (Door opens, revealing Lizzy and Doll.)

   Lizzy: 'Sup, freak. (camera pans close to their faces.) Prepare to be popular.

   Khan: (with a bowtie) I'm CHAPERONING!

   (Uzi screams)

   (Scene switches to V and N back at the pod as V presents N with two human skeletons, still sporting formal attire.)

   N: Hmm. I do want to be dapper. (hesitates) But, NO! That's why you had me find these? (gestures towards skeletons) We can't interact with the workers anymore, V.

   (A flashback to previous episode appears where N reaches for Uzi, but she shrinks away from him.)

   N: We're too dangerous...

   V: Uh, exactly. We show up fabulous. The sad purple one lets us in, 'cause she has no friends. We kill everyone and pop her little head off!

   N: I'm not freeing you for PROM MURDER, V. J went holo-spooky snake crab and WE maybe grew up in a haunted mansion! Aren't you worried we have no idea what we even are?!

   V: (Pushes N away, turning towards the dashboard.) ... Promise me you and that purple thing will stop prying into that stuff. (Gazes at a shattered mirror. N is considering.) If you free me now, I promise we'll only kill what we need to survive. Just you and me, N.

   (Both glance at a key laying on a nearby edge.)

   (The lights turn on in Doll's residence as Doll, Lizzy, and Uzi enter the room.)

   Lizzy: Ugh, Doll, do you ever clean? (Kicks one of the robotic bugs.)

   Doll: Я повесила простынь. Они спят. (I put a sheet up. They're sleeping.)

   Uzi: (She refrains from stepping on one of the bugs and glances up to the ceiling where it appears as though tiny red dots are floating around.) Hey, so, thanks for having me, but now that my dad thinks I'm here, I'm actually gonna-

   (Uzi starts walking towards the door, but it abruptly shuts.)

   Lizzy: You're hilarious. She's hilarious. You should get ready! You're gonna look so cute - in a brave way!

   (Uzi rolls her eyes and jumps back as Doll appears right behind her. She then notices the trash bin full of the same missing posters.)

   Doll: Ванная по коридору налево. (Bathroom is down the hall to the left.)

   (Uzi grimaces, backing away with a thumbs-up gesture.)

   (Scene switches back to the same key with V and N in the pod.)

   N: Uhh, V, if you're hiding something, we can figure it out together. Even if we each only have pieces. Please, what do you know-

   V: (Slices N's head off using her claws.) What's best for you -- (Salutes him with a sad look) even if you hate me for it. (Turns around and flies out of the pod.)

   (Uzi is in Doll's bathroom getting ready for the prom in front of the mirror. The Absolute Solver symbol appears on her face, but she quickly covers it.)

   Uzi: Easy, Robo Satan. Not this mirror.

   (She slowly removes her hand from her face. The symbol appears again and its force shatters the glass.)

   Uzi: Shhhh!

   Lizzy: (in the other room, muffled) Dude, no one will notice she's missing. Just do your thing, and I'll let in V. We'll see you there!

   Uzi: (backs away from the wall) Whaat the f-

   (The sound of liquid dripping causes her to turn around, beholding a sight of oil leaking out of the shower.)

   (N has already regenerated back inside the pod.)

   N: (Twitches, then wakes up screaming) Oh, no, oh-no-oh-NO! (Reaches for the ladder, but is indecisive as to whether he should take the outfit provided by V or not.) No! No time!

   (N scrambles up the latter, but quickly appears again with a new decision in mind.)

   N: Dapper N...

   (Uzi is panting as she discovers the destroyed remains of numerous Worker Drones as well as shattered mirrors in Doll's bathroom. She hears footsteps from outside the door and frantically searches for a place to hide.)

   (The camera cuts to Doll entering the bathroom only to find that Uzi escaped by climbing over a stack of mirrors.)

   Doll: Как они по-русски любят говорить... 'Ой, я должна была предположить, что кто-то сможет убежать через вентиляцию, используя выброшенные зеркала как ступеньки.' (As they say in Russian... 'Whoops, I should've predicted that someone could escape out of a ventilation shaft using a discarded mirrors as stairs.)

   Uzi: (Outside in the blizzard, running, is quickly stopped by N as he lands.) N?!

   N: Uzi?

   Uzi: Why are-

   N: You look-

   Uzi: How did-

   N: I, uh-

   Uzi: I... think something bad-

   N: I could help. But you probably don't want me...

   Uzi: N-no! I could use the... help... of you... being there? (blushing) ...with me?

   N: (hugs Uzi from behind) Dapper buddies!

   (Uzi elbows him in the side, she begins to smile while still blushing)

   (The scene cuts to the gym where prom is taking place. A worker attempts to pull off a funky little dance, but is judged by his partner. Thad does a one-armed push-up/hand stand and gestures towards Teacher on the other side of the room. He isn't having it. Khan waits nervously as he glances around the party, and then at the clock. The stage lights flip on and Lizzy comes on the platform.)

   Lizzy: Okay, listen up, nerds. We're doing this a little early, but since the entire prom court mysteriously disappeared, your queen by forfeit is, uh, this!

   (V lands on the stage, causing a stir in the crowd.)

   Male Worker Drone: Oh, we're gonna die!

   (V laughs maniacally.)

   Lizzy: Easy, judgey bots, V is my friend. (A large screen is lowered and proceeds to show a montage of selfies with V and Lizzy hanging out in various scenes.) She's done with the murder or whatever. We've been hanging!

   V: Yess. Best friends. So easily manipulated... (stops cackling) ... Prom queen? (looks to Lizzy)

   (Lizzy smiles shyly.)

   V: (Glances at the crown) Eugh.

   (Doll looks over her list of candidates, now having one empty space, she clutches it in her fists and cackles.)

   Lizzy: (Looks back at V, presumably with pity.) So, forgive and forget, or I'll get my dad to DOCK YOUR FREAKIN' GRADES! And you can't sit with us, REBECCA!

   Rebecca: Fine! I forgive her. Settle.

   Male Worker Drone: She's kinda cute, though.

   (The crowd starts applauding.)

   Lizzy: Clap harder, losers!

   (The crowd then start cheering.)

   Female Worker Drone: (Approaches V with the crown in her hand.) Your dress is really cute. (Places the crown on V's head.)

   Crowd: Speech! Speech! Speech!

   V: I, uh...

   Khan: (Pushes into the door, but he's held back as the Absolute Solver symbol appears before him.) Not... the doors!

   V: I'll kill everyone... after? It's not vain, it's extra sinister.

   (Doll continues to laugh as the symbol appears on her face, as well. She spreads her fingers, preparing to launch an attack.)

   (Lizzy looks back and forth between the two in reluctant anticipation. V approaches the mic slowly, giving it a few taps before speaking. Doll's plan is cut short when both Uzi and N land into the room.)

   Uzi: Unhand them, you fieeeennd? ... I'm confused.

   (Doll fixes her aim on V again.)

   Lizzy: On second thought, you're way hotter than Doll. RUN, idiot!

   (Two poles come out from under the ground and impale V's arms, holding her in place. Lizzy gets thrown far away, one Worker Drone gets flattened like a pancake.)

   Doll: Привет, Ви. (Hello, V.)

   (She makes a Worker Drone implode, then static fills the room and V is hit by a flashback of her killing Doll's parents, with Doll as a nearby witness.)

   Doll: Ладно, тебе всё понятно. (Anyway, you get it.)

   (Doll tilts her head, forcing a pole through V's midsection and V then breaks one hand free, turns her free hand into an SMG, firing at Doll.)

   (With one swipe of her hand, Doll enforces a shield that protects her from V's blasts. She summons a cleaver knife and tosses it at V, removing her arm. Almost immediately, she removes the ceiling fan from its post.)

   Uzi: Holy crap, what is she doing?

   N: This isn't what I expected at all! I guess we should, uh-

   (Uzi groans as Doll tosses the ceiling fan in V's direction, an attack that is blocked as N jumps in. Uzi follows quickly behind him with a knife to throw straight at Doll's face. The knife bounces right off. Doll releases the lock from the door, and all the surviving Worker Drones storm out except Khan, who is hesitant.)

   Doll: Узи, ты правда на стороне Дронов-Убийц? Я не единственная, кто потеряла из-за них семью. (Uzi, you would really side with the Murder Drones? I'm not the only one who's lost family to them.)

   Uzi: Bite me! Whoever started this wants us to fight! I'm not dealing with anything well, but I'm done dealing with everything alone. We move forward together, or not at all.

   Doll: Как мило... Но мне твоя помощь не нужна. (Cute... but I don't need help.)

   (Doll summons another pole that goes straight through N's leg. Two ceiling fans fly straight towards them, but N pushes Uzi out of the way, giving her a nod and a thumbs up before he and V are sliced apart the by the fans and their parts go flying backstage. Uzi falls on the ground, and Khan tries to enter the gym, but Doll notices he's trying to reenter the room once he sees that Uzi is in danger, so she shuts the door from behind her, turning her head backwards to do so. Doll, focusing on Uzi now, summons another blade and throws it at Uzi, which it goes straight through her hand. Uzi pulls it out and arms herself with it. Doll tries to use her Solver on Uzi, but it tells her, "--/ ERROR: absoluteSolver_trn | [like object non interactive]" When Doll realizes her Solver abilities won't work on Uzi, she summons a third weapon and tries to use it on Uzi.)

   (Uzi deflects Doll's thrown weapon with the knife in her hand as she slowly approaches. Doll backs up a little and becomes nervous.)

   (V's arm is pulling itself along the ground.)

   N: (Picks it up) Is this...?

   V: (Grabs it out of his hand using her mouth) Mine!

   Lizzy: Ew. You look like garbage.

   V: (muffled) You frickin' traitor.

   Lizzy: (Swipes V's arm out of her mouth) As if you weren't using me to try and kill everyone, Ms. Petty. Where does this freaking go?

   N: Thank you, Lizzy!

   Lizzy and V: Shut up, loser.

   (Doll and Uzi continue their fight. Doll throws a knife at Uzi, but she backflips and kicks it away, where the knife is thrown into the stereo, remixing the song as it slows and intensifies. Doll then takes the knife out of the stereo with her Solver to toss at Uzi again. Uzi jumps and arms herself with the microphone stand, which she kicks towards Doll. Doll stops the stand in mid-air. Uzi picks up the knife and starts advancing, but the stand is thrown back at her, causing her to fall to the ground. The knife slides away and is gained by Doll once again, who multiplies it and charges them towards Uzi; before she can do anything, a wing of a Disassembly Drone blocks the knives. The attack is blocked by N.)

   (N offers Uzi a hand.)

   Uzi: (groans) Quit saving me!

   (N grabs her hand and twirls her around to avoid an attack from another unidentified object.)

   (Uzi catches the knife in her hand as it's thrown at her again. N pulls her in and she tosses it back to Doll. N shoots a missile in the same direction. The knife barely misses her face and instead slides through a single strand of hair. An explosion causes her to fall back.)

   Uzi: (Clutching on to N's waist, blushing.) Seriously, don't... do that again.

   N: Uzi... AH, OKAY, YOUR TURN! (Picks up Uzi and throws her forward right before he's hit by an entire table.)

   (Doll is lifting both the remaining tables and Uzi into the air. Uzi jumps from table to table in an attempt to get closer to Doll. Doll twirls more blades her way, but with a single kick Uzi is able to counterattack and snap Doll's wristband. Uzi jumps from the table and does a power kick straight to Doll's head. As Doll prepares to attack again, she's shot in the head from behind by V.)

   Uzi: ... V! We needed her for answers!

   V: What? She's fine- uh eaahh.

   (Doll is laying on the ground with oil spurting from the wound)

   V: A little tuckered out.

   N: V did that on purpose! She's hiding mystery stuff and being over dramatic about it!

   V: N! You SUCK! (Punches N in the side.)

   Uzi: YOU!

   (V and N both point at each other.)

   Uzi: (Picks up Doll's wristband from the ground.) Lucky for you, we're not done yet.

   (A key dangles from Uzi's wristband.)

   (They enter a dark room as the lights turn on, revealing it to be Doll's room again.)

   Uzi: Uh, oh.

   V: Hehe. Nice.

   (Worker Drone remains are scattered across the floor, ceiling, and counters.)

   (V takes one of the arms in her mouth and sucks on it)

   Uzi: (removes the arm) Ugh. Self respect. Why would a worker drone... was she eating them? (Deposits the arm in a nearby pot; one that's already full of other arms.)

   (N discovers a large sheet in the corner of the room that appears to be hiding something.)

   (Uzi notices the oil on her fingers, peering at it intently.)

   N: (Removes the sheet, revealing her parents.) I... think we found her folks.

   V: Literally didn't even taste that good.

   N: V, you kind of suck.

   V: (giggles) Yeah. I'm not doing okay. (chomps on a robotic bug)

   (Uzi removes her oil-covered fingers from her mouth and hides them as N looks back at her. She crawls over the counter and goes to inspect the corpses of Doll's parents.)

   (An ID badge on one of them reads: YEVA - 048, along with a picture of a female Worker Drone.)

   (Doll teleports and regenerates behind them and, with a sickly smile, removes the bullet from her head, pointing it towards the three of them.)

   Doll: Как раз к ужину... (Just in time for dinner...)

   (They all gasp as they see her and the screen fades black for a moment, along with the sound of a shot firing. The Absolute Solver symbol, appearing purple, now is within view and the camera pans out to find that Uzi had blocked the bullet with similar abilities to Doll.)

   Doll: Мне... мне тебя... жаль... (I... I'm sorry for you.)

   (The view focuses on a choker around Uzi's neck. She discards the bullet.)

   Doll: Если я найду то, что ищу, то и тебе помогу. (If I find what I'm looking for, I'll help you too.)

   Uzi: What?

   Doll: Извини. (I am sorry.)

   (Doll starts backing away.)

   Uzi: Wait! Oh, don't you dare!

   (V jumps up and shoots Doll, causing an explosion.)

   Uzi: Ugh, I HATE IT HEREE!

   (Outside, the wind is blowing. A male worker drone digs through the snow and reveals a pair of glasses.)

   Reid: Oh, that's where I left my excuse to be outside right now! (puts them on)

   (A pod crashes down with a great blast. Other large objects come after it. A final explosion occurs, dropping a single teddy bear. The worker uncovers his head just in time to see another pod land. Tessa exits the pod and is quick to slice the worker's neck with her sword.)

   Tessa: (puts the sword away) Righty-o. Work to do. Eh, J?

   (Serial Designation J flies in from behind, handing her a key.)

   Tessa: Maintenance work.

   (Car beep)

   (Credits roll)

   (A school bus pulls up to Camp 98.7.)

   Ronathon: Whoa, easy! (The bus stops.) Good girl.

   (The students inside exit the bus.)

   Sam: Do you ever wonder why- (He gets shoved to the ground by Emily, who was pushed by another student.)

   Emily: Hey! (She picks her book up and leaves as more students exit the bus.)

   Thad: No kidding! (He and Lizzy share a laugh as they exit the bus.)

   (Uzi is the last one to exit. She looks down at 2 collars she wears on her right hand as we get a flashback.)

   Khan: After the core collapsed... I... didn't notice the collars. (Khan is looking at an old photo of him and Nori, along with a group of friends.) Only your mom being a catch!

   (No response from Uzi, who is staring into a room filled with old papers and storage stuff.)

   Khan: (Sighs) She was always all, "Build doors against the coming sky demons!" "The singularity awakens." "Look at this cool S I can draw!" (Sighs) Turns out, I'm not who either of you needed. (He closes the door.) Just... Be safe, okay?

   (He hands Uzi the collars as the flashback ends. Uzi puts one collar in her pocket, and the other goes around her neck.)

   Braidon: Uh, teacher, what is this field trip?

   Teacher: Yeah, Uzi's idea. Ask her.

   Braidon: (Scoffs) Who?

   Uzi: I've sat next to you for years.

   (Uzi's speaking startles everyone.)

   Uzi: Bite me! I asked to go alone. He's mad at your test scores.

   Teacher: No year-end bonus, no learning.

   Braidon: So, we're just unsupervised? What the-!?

   (At that moment, V and N come crashing down in front of them. N turns to them menacingly, looking like he is ready to kill them and ingest their warm, sweet oil, until suddenly...)

   N: Welcome, campers! Let's sound off! (He gets ready to do roll call, but instead begins to count.) One, two... (He stops. A student gets shot at by V and falls over, dead.)

   Students: (In sync, and not wanting to get shot at as well) THREE/FOUR/FIVE/SIX/SEVEN/EIGHT/NINE/TEN/ELEVEN!

   N: That's everyone! (Whispers to V) Minus one... (To the students) We got so many distracting activities planned, so no sneaking off to investigate stuff! (He slyly gestures to Uzi, who blushes.) To the bunks!

   (He leads the way... Except no one's following him. He looks over at Uzi, then back to the students.)

   Thad: Sounds good, N

   (Lizzy loots items from the dead worker drone, including a gold watch.)

   Lizzy: Anything for my bestie!

   (Thad and Lizzy join N and V, but no one else does.)

   Uzi: (still blushing) Y-Yeah, they're like my friends, too, so... It's cool.

   (Everyone flees in a panic at Uzi's mere presence.)

   Emily: (Taking N's hand) You can be our friend, little guy!

   Darren: (Poking V's eye) Poor thing's defective. (V grabs Darren's hand menacingly, then looks back at Uzi.)

   V: Hmph. Nah, just full of love. (Her tail turns into the outline of a heart while her visor gain eyelashes to bat her eyes with. She points her thumb at N. ) This one's a pilot.

   Rebecca: Oh! (Giggles) Wow, a pilot.

   (N looks back at Uzi, who gestures that she will go her own way and that N should get everyone else to the campsite. She gives a thumbs up, N nods, and Uzi heads into the woods, alone.)

   (Uzi continues her trek through the woods until she reaches an abandoned building. She uses her powers to open the lock (Which almost crushes a bug) and ventures inside. She picks up a hat, then tosses it to the side as she examines her surroundings: Books and bottles clutter the floor, two Worker uniforms are hanging up, furniture is laying on their sides, and a wall has been blasted open. A calendar on the wall catches her eye and she moves it over towards her. It shows a dog on the top half, and the bottom half shows the month of Seramorris. An important note reads, "EVACUATE ALL DOGS! Just in case something bad happens, idk." Two additional notes underneath read, "Cool, we did that. That's canon." and "ALSO, ALL DOGS ARE IMMORTAL NOW! THANKS TO SCIENCE!" Uzi sighs in relief. Suddenly, a noise grabs her attention. She looks around, and gets spooked when she spots what appears to be a human hand reach from around a corner. She tries to steady her flashlight when she hears a scream coming from outside. She heads to the window and finds...! the other campers rowing their canoes on the lake, screaming and laughing in joy.)

   Rebecca: (To N) So, my friend want to know if you killed her family. And if you're single.

   Darren: (As he and Thad carry a canoe with V and Lizzy in it.) Make way for the canoe train!

   V: Sabotage, minions! Plan X! (The boys kick N's canoe and head off while laughing, only to slip and drop the canoe. Lizzy falls out and V simply flies in the air. Emily falls out of N's canoe.)

   Rebecca: I CAN'T SWIM! (She almost falls out, but N catches her.) Oh! Hehe... Thank you.

   (N salutes)

   N: Close one.

   (Back at the abandoned building, as Uzi watches the campers rowing their canoes, the Absolute Solver symbol suddenly appears on her right eye, and the window shatters. As she tries to reach inside her backpack, suddenly the Absolute Solver glitches out and displays a caution symbol with "HIGH TEMP" displayed on her right eye. The camera cuts to a view inside Uzi's backpack, which contains a severed worker drone hand.)

   V: Tick tock... (She giggles as she makes her presence known.)

   Uzi: H-Hey, s-stupid... idiot... Uh, weren't you just-

   V: You said this camp would help us catch that red-eyed Doll freak. How about more "explore-y", less "watch from window creepy".

   Uzi: (Swipes her hand away) Working on it. Just... (Sarcastically) so glad you guys fit right in. Super cool. (V raises her tail behind Uzi.)

   V: Better to stay distant, though. Don'tcha think? (She looks over at Uzi's backpack.) Since I'll have to kill you next? (She scratches a line across Uzi's eye with her knife finger and prepares to leave.) N's made friends with rocks, by the way. He'll move on just fine.

   (She makes her exit as Uzi's eye repairs itself. She sighs as she goes over to get her backpack, only to see that it had crushed a bug.)

   Uzi: Sorry, buddy. Gotcha good. (She uses her Absolute Solver powers to repair the bug back to good health. The little insect wanders away and turns back to Uzi, who salutes it as it heads under the floorboards. Uzi uses her powers to lift the wood up, revealing a rotting, deceased Worker Drone. She lifts up a few papers: Two drawings, and a JCJenson Program Admission Notice, both covered in oil. She flips over the last one to reveal a part of a Murder Drone's claw pierced through the side that was otherwise supposed to be intentionally left blank. She pulls the claw piece out as another bug climbs onto her hand. She squishes it, but it narrowly dodges and climbs her other hand.)

   Insect: >:( (It scans her) WELCOME BACK [002]. HOW CAN I HELP YOU TODAY?

   (The options are: Submit time card, PTO request, register torture chamber complaint, end my suffering (PROMO OFFER DISCONTINUED), and call elevator.)

   Uzi: ...Elevator?

   Insect: PLEASE PLACE ME ON PROXIMITY READER (CABIN FEVER LABS).

   Uzi: Where's that? What are you?

   (The insect thinks Uzi said "Wear his hat?" and "What argue?")

   Insect: INVALID RESPONSE.

   (Doll appears and disappears behind Uzi)

   (Back with the campers. N fires multiple arrows at a target's center until it catches fire.)

   N: Ah, sorry! Did I... cheat? (He looks back at the others. No answer, but another camper gets shot at and falls over. V jumps down.)

   V: Tch. You didn't even kill everyone here. Check this out. (She gets ready to fire an arrow at the campers, who nervously clap.)

   (Meanwhile, Uzi is making her way back to the campsite.)

   Uzi: (Whispering to get N's attention) Psst. Hey.

   (N looks behind him. He sees Uzi, with her new bug friend.)

   Insect: HELLO :) DON'T TELL V I'M HERE

   N: (Yelling, thus indirectly letting V know she's here) Uzi, get on out here!

   Insect: :0

   N: This troop's a team! (Realizing he has gotten V's attention) WAIT, NO, INCLUSIVE REFLEXES!

   (V looks back)

   Insect: D:!! (It flees)

   Uzi: Uh, hehe, hey, everyone.

   (Everyone screams at her presence. Braidon accidentally shoots an arrow in her direction. However, she uses her powers to stop it... Only for her temperature to rise again and morph the arrow into a fleshy, bloody mess.)

   Uzi: (Nervously freaked out) Um, ignore all this! Uh... I was just... Going... (Oil shoots out from the student's corpse like a fountain.) Yeah, I LIVE IN THE WOODS NOW! (She retreats back into the woods.)

   Braidon: ...Who was that?

   (Uzi retreats into a nearby cabin and barricades the door. She uses her powers to force all the doors and windows shut so that no one will find her. She reaches into her backpack and tries to grab the worker drone arm to eat, only for a nearby clock's ticking to drive her crazy, to the point where she has to use her powers to destroy the clock and the lights. Except for one. Uzi attempts to destroy it, but everything around her turns red as a fleshy abomination manifests and covers her entire vision...)

   (Meanwhile, N is trying to prevent V from attempting to harm Uzi.)

   N: V, we can't hurt Uzi!

   V: We do our jobs, and that thing leaves us alone!

   N: I don't know what you're talking about because you won't tell me! (He frees himself from V's grasp using his claw.) What're you so afraid of!?

   V: I'm not afraid...!

   N: I am! Uzi is! She's a kid, like us, V! What is WRONG with you!?

   (No response. N sighs and tosses his clipboard at her.)

   N: Look after the campers. (He flies off in pursuit of Uzi.)

   Lizzy: Hot. (V is unamused) Not hot? You're too good for him.

   (V turns to the other campers.)

   V: Do whatever you want. (She stomps off. Rebecca gestures to Darren that they should sneak off.)

   (Darren and Rebecca are wandering in the woods.)

   Darren: We need to sneak this far just to make out?

   Rebecca: It's about mood, Darren.

   (Eventually, they reach a small, abandoned, creepy cabin. Lightning strikes as Rebecca and Darren's faces light up in fear.)

   Rebecca: Nice.

   Darren: I get it now!

   (Darren attempts to push the door open, but is unable to due to furniture blocking the way. He tries to turn the lights on, to no avail. After finally pushing the door open wide enough to enter, a flashlight rolls by itself on the ground in front of them, flickering on and off. Darren goes to pick it up but the cabin door slams close by itself, startling the duo. Behind them, Uzi is hiding in the shadows, laughing like a demon after being transformed into a bat-like monster by the Absolute Solver. She spreads her newly created bat-like wings as she prepares to kill and feast upon them.)

   (Meanwhile, N flies down and finds another cabin. He enters, and looks over to see what appears to be some kind of control desk with a monitor hanging overhead that's displaying static. He goes over to investigate. He tries to turn another monitor on, only for it to fry up. He goes over to the static-playing monitor, where he notices a VHS tape underneath: ZOMBIE DRONES. As soon as he touches it, he begins to have brief flashbacks. One involving Cyn, one with a severed arm, and another involving a huge, glitching black hole in the sky with a small label that says "[null]". He backs away in horror.)

   (Elsewhere, Uzi continues voraciously cramming the remains of Darren into her mouth. She suddenly begins to vomit, scream, and cough. She looks out the door as her temperature rises again.)

   (Back with the other campers, Braidon is telling a spooky story.)

   Braidon: But her warranty wasn't expired... IT NEVER EXISTEEEEED!

   Sam: It's scary, 'cause it's like-

   Emily: Aren't you guys worried about Darren and Rebecca?

   Sam: -Real.

   Emily: Shouldn't they be back from their... immoral make out session by n-

   (She screams as she notices that Rebecca's arm has grabbed her ankle. The bottom half of Rebecca's body has been cut off, and there is a trail of oil oozing behind her.)

   Braidon: Rebecca!?

   Lizzy: Who did this to you!?

   Rebecca: (Coughing) Don't... remember name... (Cough) Super unpopular...

   Sam: Descriptive clues, man!

   Rebecca: Purple... eyes... Hot Topic...

   Braidon: Uh...

   Lizzy: I feel like I remember someone like that...

   Sam: From our class?

   (All of a sudden, the campfire vanishes, due to someone behind them using her Absolute Solver powers. They look behind them and gasp as they hear maniacal laughter. Uzi, controlled by the Absolute Solver, is cackling with her bat wings outspread.)

   Braidon: Ohhh... You...?

   (The campers shrug in unison. Suddenly, Braidon's head explodes due to Uzi's Absolute Solver powers.)

   Sam: S-S-SPLIT UP!

   Emily: I think I've read that's good!

   (The remaining three campers flee for their lives, running in different directions. A book lands near the campfire and opens up by itself to show that, despite what Emily says, it said nothing of the sort.)

   (Sam is running in the woods when he trips, falls down a hill, and smacks into a tree. He decides to hide behind the tree after spotting Uzi fly to the top of another tree in pursuit. Behind the tree, he looks back. Uzi's gone. He sighs in relief, not noticing Uzi's tail next to him, which he misses when he looks in its direction.)

   Sam: Huh?

   (The book Emily was reading falls on his head. He picks it up as he hears Uzi giggling. The book is titled "Final Girl". He slowly looks up.)

   Sam: (Fearing for his life) Does it at least have pictures...?

   Uzi: It doesn't. I checked.

   (Elsewhere, Lizzy hears Sam's scream coming from the distance. She stops to look around and spots what appears to be Emily.)

   Lizzy: Oh, thank Robo-God, Final Girl!

   (It turns out Uzi had already killed Emily and is playing with her corpse. Uzi snaps her head off and cackles.)

   Lizzy: Um... Clashing?

   (Uzi uses her Absolute Solver to hold Lizzy in a choking position. She makes her way over to her, but is blocked by V. V swipes at Uzi, who falls.)

   V: (To Lizzy) Killing her, not saving you.

   Lizzy: Okay, mom. (rolls eyes)

   Uzi: V... Please...!

   V: New body, same horrors. Huh, Cyn?

   Uzi: I... don't know... who that is... Can I... talk to N...?

   V: Tch. I'll make sure you can't.

   (Just as V goes in for the kill, Uzi's tail grabs her and flings her to the side. Uzi pins V to a tree as the latter tries to fire at the former. V misses and barely avoids hitting Lizzy.)

   Lizzy: Ugh.

   (Uzi pins V to the ground, slices off her syringe tail, and prepares to stab her with it...)

   N: (Grabs Uzi) Whoops. Easy there, buddy. (Uzi stabs the syringe into his hand.) Haha, ow. Up we go!

   (He tosses Uzi into the air, removes V's tail from his hand, and puts his hand in his mouth.)

   N: (Muffled) What did I say about antagonizing her?

   V: (Pouts) You always take her side!

   (N flies up after Uzi.)

   (Uzi uses her wings to stop herself from flying any higher. She begins to fall back down as N appears next to her.)

   N: Uzi, you want to tell me what's the matter?

   Uzi: No. Don't look. (She hides herself in her wings.) I'm gross and eating people and stuff...

   N: Yeah, we'll figure that part out... (He opens her wings up to see her face.) But, you know that's not what I mean.

   Uzi: (Tearing up) Are you, like... gonna leave me?

   N: Uzi?

   Uzi: Never mind, it's stupid. (She continues hiding in her wings.)

   N: (Sighs softly to himself) Before we met, scary stuff was actually... pretty scary. And tonight too, 'cause you weren't with me to make it fun, somehow. (Uzi reveals her face.) I kind of forgot what that was like...

   Uzi: (Coming out of hiding) Same. (crying)

   N: (Using Uzi's tail as a puppet) Then we'll stick together!

   Uzi: (She chuckles and takes the tail back.) Don't freaking touch it. (She changes the accent of her tail-puppet.) Plus my voice is more like-

   (They crash on the ground. V gets ready for a fight, only to see N carrying Uzi in his arms.)

   Uzi: Accent was a bad idea anyway. N, I'm... sorry.

   N: Eh, not like you killed anyone.

   Uzi: Oh no, I definitely-

   N: Kidding! Just avoid another whole spire. Baby steps. Together?

   (Uzi and N share an embrace. V puts her claws away as Lizzy appears next to her.)

   Lizzy: Ew.

   V: Don't patronize me.

   Lizzy: What? I think it's gross all by myself. God, you're a diva lately. (She walks away.)

   (V looks back and chuckles while sharing a small smile.)

   (The bus gets ready to leave the camp.)

   Ronathon: Hiya, hiya!

   (The bus drives off. Inside, the teacher is going over the list of students.)

   Teacher: (Turns back to V) So, missing some campers here...

   (V doesn't respond. She knows what really happened to the missing students. She looks over at Lizzy, next to her. She looks back at Uzi and N. They are both sound asleep, with Uzi resting her head on N's shoulder. Uzi's little insect friend hides in her hat.)

   V: (Sighs) Yo, I get hungry, idiot.

   Teacher: No name calling. Just a question. (V sits back in her seat.)

   (A pool of orange sunlight casts over the bus seat, and Uzi's hand starts smoking under the sunlight. N notices this and reaches to move her hand out of the way. Uzi holds his hand. N quickly, silently lets go without waking Uzi up. He looks over at the Zombie Drones VHS tape he brought with him. The thought of what could be on the tape worries him.)

   (Credits roll.)

   (A VHS tape begins playing, showing JCJenson with icons for cleaning, cooperate, and robot safety.)

   Narrator: Upgrading models? Cutting maintenance costs?

   Narrator: There are many reasons the client may wish to disassemble a drone individual or series after a period of use.

   Narrator: (The tape and audio begin glitching out.) Following these two steps is key to avoiding—

   (The tape has now completely glitched out and is replaced by static. It shows the text "Zombie Drones".)

   (The tape then returns to normal and shows info about Zombie Drones.)

   Narrator: Incompletely disassembled drones may occasionally reboot from software death alone. More than undead federal fine hazards, its corrupted AI carry an increased risk of future error—

   (The tape glitches out once more as we zoom out from a television set sitting in a dump, all piles full of dead worker drones. A bird flies around looking for something to snack on. It uses its beak to scavenge into a drone part, taking out a wire and holding it in its beak as thunder flashes. The bird flies over to the big pile, perches at the pile's top, and sets the wire down. The camera follows underground, where it pans on a "MARKED FOR DISASSEMBLY" armband. It pans on a drone's hand, and then to a close-up of a cracked visor. The visor glitches with yellow text on it.)

   (Cyn awakens, and she sees she is trapped. The camera pans up away from her and to the mass insides of the pile, with red warning marks etched all around. The scene cuts to black.)

   (At the Elliott Manor, N is nearby as we see different drones in motionless positions. N sitting on the floor in a library against a bookshelf, reading a book called "101 Dog Breeds".)

   N: Commonly kept, this breed is known for its friendly, intelligent temperament and soft golden coat! (Chuckles) Golden Retrievers are also— (He comes across a drawing that was placed in the book, with two drawings of crude lizards with N and V's name above the two drawings. The third drawing resembles J herself in an anime-styled drawing, with the words "Kill yourself" next to it.) Us as lizards. J drew herself.

   (He tosses the drawing off to the side, where a motionless V is, and continues reading.)

   N: (clears throat) ...are also known for having gentle mouths. Aww...! That's why they're good with kids!

   (He hears a stomping noise. Books start falling off the shelves, as one reads "DANGER." Two more fall down from near N as they read "ENTER" and "THE SPOOKY BASEMENT" as he sees that someone is attempting to enter the library via the trapdoor...but he thinks nothing of it, flashing a peace sign as walks out of the library.)

   (An insect crawls over a teacup and begins to drink the oil inside. It finds another insect like it inside until...)

   Cyn: Stab.

   (The insect gets stabbed by Cyn, who lifts the cup. N enters and notices lots of camera eyes in the dark before the lighting reverts to just normal Cyn with her teacup behind the counter.)

   Cyn: You seem upset, big brother N. Perhaps you'd like to attend the gala with me? Light sip. (She tries to sip her teacup, but misses, and the oil spills onto the floor.)

   N: Ah... Not sure we're invited, little buddy. Why not just hang with me?

   Cyn: (Climbs up on the bar counter) Climbing. Criss-cross applesauce. Am I not wanted, N?

   N: (Sighs) Dude... You know it's Tessa's folks.

   (Red liquid, likely blood, suddenly drips from the ceiling and onto N's platter. He wipes it off, revealing a message written on the ceiling. The text reads: "BASEMENT NOW!!! STOP IGNORING ME!!!!")

   (N throws the platter to the opposite wall, trying to ignore the paranormal sign.)

   N: (Sighs) Don't give me those eyes.

   (Cyn's visor displays an actual puppy picture.)

   Cyn: Giggle. I am so naughty. The flesh demands invitation.

   N: Ah, we'll ask Tessa, OK? If not... Movie night! (strikes a pose)

   Cyn: Sheepish nod.

   (N and Cyn enter the room where the gala is taking place. There are a lot of Worker Drones doing their tasks.)

   Cyn: (Walking behind N) Shuffle. Shuffle. Shuffle. Shuffle.

   James: Western Villa style?! Were you programmed by beasts?! (He grabs a fork off a plate the two Workers are carrying and tosses it into a Worker Drone's eye, killing it as it causes a spurt oil to come out of its visor as it falls dead.)

   (Tessa and J are off to the side at a small round table, Tessa is pacing nervously while J is apparently cleaning the inside of a cup silently.)

   Tessa: There's humans coming! I've only ever yakked to robots, J! Quick, pretend to be a ripping royal stud. (Holds up an invitation flyer in J's face)

   (J reads it silently for a second, and then leans on the table with a glass and gestures at herself and her dress with a smirk.)

   Tessa: (Blinks twice in realization, before grabbing a glass and flips it to her hand) On ya, girl.

   (They toast. Tessa yelps in pain before she starts rubbing her wrist like it hurts. J looks at her silently, concerned and sad.)

   Tessa: I'm right, J. (She sees that N has arrived, tossing her cup to the side, shattering it.) N! (squeals and waves enthusiastically)

   (She runs up, grabs him by his cheeks, and swings him around.)

   N: (mumbled) Hi, Tessa.

   (N looks over. In the window, another message is being written by the fog on the window. The text "WHEN U ABOUT 2 FRIKKEN DIE, SPEAK ALOUD: ID: DarkXWolf17" is on the wall.)

   Tessa: Oh, who'd you bring with— (She sees Cyn and narrows her eyes.) you...

   Cyn: Seems J forgot to let me out of my basement time-out again.

   J: (Annoyed, twirling the key on her finger before putting her hand back behind her head) Yet, here you are.

   Cyn: Annoyed expression.

   N: You guys are... locking her up?

   Tessa: Oh... N—

   Louisa: (Walks over) Tessa James Elliott! We will not entertain your dumpster pets!

   Tessa: Y-Y-Y-Yes, mother. Sorry, mother.

   Louisa: (Sees Cyn as lightning flashes, which briefly turning Cyn's eyes black and revealing a fanged mouth.) Oh! Christ Almighty! I said, "This one, out of my sight!" Still can't follow simple orders.

   Tessa: NO, NO! Please, I—

   Louisa: Swamp. Dumping your broken drones, clogging our library tomorrow too. Don't test me.

   (As she walks away. Tessa tries to argue back, but isn't willing to anger her mother any further.)

   Cyn: They are not broken. We can no longer be thrown out.

   Louisa: Did that little Anti-Christ—

   N: (N stands infront of Cyn.) I-I-I told her to say that! And brought her here. I-I just...hate orders...? (He looks nervous.) And your fan's dumb...? (He gives a peace sign and an awkward, sheepish grin.)

   (N has been tied to a tree and is being pecked by crows, as punishment for insulting Louisa. The camera pans on different angles to make this seem like a horror film.)

   N: NO! AAAH! STOP!

   (What sounds like torture is, in reality, N being playfully pecked and tickled in the head by the crows. He is also chained up against the tree.)

   N: (Laughing) Stop!

   (A crow hands N a stick, crowing expectantly.)

   N: Go get it, goobers!

   (He throws the stick in the air, but a flying crow snatches it. All the crows on the ground turn to face N with sinister, glowing, green eyes. He glances over at another drone who suffered his own fate at the talons of the crows. He gives a sheepish smile and thumbs up, and the crows begin to attack him.)

   N: (Being viciously pecked) Ronald, we were buddies! (pause)...DarkXWolf17...?

   (All the crows fly away,,,except for one. The one crow in front of N makes its loud entrance, performing several sick moves. It twitches and falls on the ground as an orange glow appears in its eye as a pop sound is heard from that. The crow gets back up and turns its head dramatically to reveal a glowing purple Absolute Solver symbol in its eye. A purple user interface window appears above the crow's head: User ID: DarkXWolf17)

   (It begins speaking.)

   DarkXWolf17: Ugh, made the tag when I was eight, shut up.

   (Back at the manor, Tessa is in her room with Cyn and J. All of them are chained up by their legs.)

   (Tessa is pulling at her chains, trying to loosen them but to no avail.)

   Tessa: J, industrial machinery, chuck us a hand!

   (J is sitting, swaying on a rocking horse, holding a blue whale plush toy)

   J: Sorry, boss. Corporate's spoken.

   Tessa: Cyn, if that little butler dies for your sake, I swear!

   Cyn: (Playing with dolls) Mm. I have backups.

   (Out of options, Tessa gets down to try and reattempts to break the chains herself when Cyn suddenly appears next to her in an Eldritch form.)

   Eldritch Cyn: You will not have to discard your pets, and I will not discard you. Best stay away from the gala, though. (Eldritch Cyn strokes Tessa's face with one of its tentacles) You seem squeamish. (She leaves.)

   (A shocked Tessa and J turn to look at each other and an insect, that now has it's main body replaced with a doll, crawls out of sight.)

   (Back outside.)

   N: So, these are memories, and future me is dead at a sleepover?

   DarkxWolf17: (Picking up a stone) Not a sleepover. You passed out, 'cause some internal program is trying to delete these memories.

   N: 'Cause...'Cause of you? 'Cause you're doing that? Ow! (Birdzi drops the stone on his head which falls on the chains around his leg which is keeping him tied to the tree.)

   DarkxWolf17: I'm helping, you cute, weird, weird butler. We find out what happened to you here, restore the memory files, and save you from being digitally lobotomized. (Birdzi sits on top of N's head and points with her wing.) Library basement, giddy up.

   N: 'Kay. (He heads off for the library.) You kind of seem like an evil ghost witch, though. (Birdzi pecks his eye.) AH!

   DarkxWolf17: I AM a ghost witch! And I'm tall. (She laughs evilly.) DAD! GET OUT OF MY ROOM! (Her voice becomes glitchy and she falls over.)

   (Back in the present time. Khan has walked into Uzi's room, disturbing her hacking.)

   Uzi: Important hacking going on!

   Khan: Okay, okay. You've just never had friends over befo—

   Uzi: Not a sleepover!

   'Keybug: IT'S LIFE OR DEATH, DAD! >:(' (Uzi closes the door with her Absolute Solver.)

   (Back in N's memories, Birdzi and N have reached the library.)

   DarkxWolf17: Sorry. Where were we- oh...

   (V's unconscious body stands before them, V's visor flashing "ERROR: 606".)

   DarkxWolf17: Okay, N, I can pull you out an—

   N: (Interjecting) Now! Now, please!

   DarkxWolf17: —ytime. But, you'll never get these memories back, dude.

   (They press forward slowly.)

   N: They're that important?

   DarkxWolf17: To you! And, like... me.

   N: Why? Who are you?

   DarkxWolf17: We just... hang out. Shut up. Repression door.

   (V's visor still flashes the "ERROR: 606". N hesitates, then relents and pushes V to the side, out of the way. He removes the rug she was standing on, revealing that she was standing on the basement door. Which turns out to be require a key.)

   DarkxWolf17: The key...

   N: Ugh, J has it.

   (They suddenly hear a giggling noise. They slowly turn to see that V is now grinning and has a claw-like hand. Birdzi lays an egg in terror.)

   (Back in Tessa's room, J is trying to break the chains with her mouth.)

   Tessa: (Overdramatic) It wants paid time off. To attend UUUUNION NEGOTIATIOOOONS!

   J: (Finally at her limit) THIS IS AN UNRELATED LAYOFF!

   (In her rage, J breaks the chains and starts punching it angrily on the floor. She spits on it and then looks over at Tessa, who gives a thumbs up.)

   (Back at the gala hall, Tessa and J sneak around the second floor.)

   Tessa: How do you reckon we murder us a robo-child, J?

   (She bumps into a suit of armor. J grabs a revolver while Tessa grabs a sword.)

   Tessa and J: How 'bout this? (They look at each other and decide to swap their weapons.)

   N: (Whispering) Psst! Tessa!

   (They look to see that N and Birdzi have appeared, crouching. Suddenly, V's glasses drop from above. They slowly look up to see V in a Solver-Eldritch form crawling on the ceiling. The three, and Birdzi, huddle as a group.)

   N: We need the basement key. This bird's from the future.

   DarkxWolf17: (Flies over to J and snatches the key.) I kill you. (She snickers mischievously and flies back to N.)

   Tessa: Cyn's gonna massacre the gala!

   N: Who? Our Cyn? Nah, she's cool. (Tessa and J look at each other in disbelief.)

   (Without warning, V swoops down and splits the group up; Tessa and J on one side of the corridor and N and Birdzi on the other side. V tries to swipe at Tessa with her claw, but J reflects V with her sword.)

   J: Do your basement thing. We got the coma patient you creeped on.

   N: Not creepy. Sweet!

   (V appears next to N and tries to swipe him with her claw, making him drop the key. V lunges at the key but Tessa picks it up and throws it back to N. V grabs and throws J's sword backwards at N, but J kicks him out of the way and takes her sword back. She rushes towards V, and the two engage in combat. Meanwhile, Lord Frumptlebucket is watching from below.)

   Lord Frumptlebucket: Crikey, what aboundin' humphterfruffle!

   Katie: Why are you talking like that?

   (N and Uzi make their way back through the library. They hurry to the basement trapdoor and unlock it when...)

   Eldritch Cyn: (Pops up) Jump scare. Grab. (She snatches Uzi and throws her to the side.)

   N: DARKXWOLF17! NOO-O-O-O-OOO!

   (Eldritch Cyn grabs N by his feet and slowly pulls N towards the basement but suddenly malfunctions. Uzi has hacked her way into Eldritch Cyn's body.)

   Uzi: Oh, we're in! (She spots V behind N.) ...And J's useless. Surprise.

   (She drags N into the basement and locks the door to prevent V from entering.)

   N: Is V... okay? Like, in the future?

   Uzi: Unfortunately. Now, let's see what that little yellow creep was up— Oh!

   (They come across a collection of dismembered Worker Drone corpses.)

   Uzi: So... That's a pretty... metal origin story.

   N: (Terrified) Not dealing with this great, to be immediately honest...! (Takes a moment's repression.) Okay, it's gone.

   Uzi: Alright, let's get out of here.

   (A rumbling occurs. Back in the real world...)

   Khan: Hey, buddy, you invite Doll to this—

   (He suddenly gets grabbed and thrown out as Doll teleports her way into Uzi's room.)

   (Back in N's memories...)

   N: Ghost buddy? You okay...?

   (N comes near to the Eldritch and tries to prod it when the Solver returns its control.)

   Eldritch Cyn: Better than ever, "buddy". (She grabs N and tosses him into a chair.) Let's reset these memories one more time.

   (N looks in fear at the tools that the Solver has.)

   (The gala is about to commence in the hall.)

   James: (Taps his wine glass) Welcome, all! The Elliotts are known for many things. Class, tenacity, currently being alive—

   (Cyn teleports atop a large globe at the back of the hall.)

   Cyn: Well-timed. Giggle. (She reveals herself.)

   (The hall turns silent when Tessa and J barge in through the doors.)

   Tessa: EVERYONE, STAND BACK! This is a citizen's murder. (Tessa aims her revolver at Cyn.)

   (James and Louisa gasp.)

   Louisa: (Disgusted) That dress!

   James: You hold that gun less cool this instant, missy!

   (Cyn uses her Absolute Solver to shove Louisa and James to the side.)

   Cyn: Tessa, remember, you didn't have to—

   (Tessa fires a bullet at her, but Cyn avoids it with her Absolute Solver and instead the bullet breaks a window.)

   Cyn: ...You didn't have—

   (Tessa throws the revolver at her, to no avail. Desperate, she then starts throwing glass cups and a whole tray, but not getting any different results. Cyn is unamused, then turns off the lights in the room and takes control of all the Worker Drones, including J, who shuts the door so Tessa can't escape along with the other guests.)

   Eldritch Cyn: You didn't have to see this.

   (Eldritch Cyn crushes the globe she was previously holding.)

   (Back down in the basement, N hears the screams of the guests as they are being massacred. Eldritch Cyn is trying to pick up some tools to wipe N's memories.)

   Eldritch Cyn: Son of a- Come on... Solver of the Absolute Fabric, get a grip. (She gives up.) Tantrum. (She throws the table to the side.) ...Brain blast. (She turns to the basement trapdoor.) Oh, V. Could use some help in here.

   (Back in the real world, Uzi and Doll are fighting over the Keybug using their Absolute Solvers.)

   Keybug: STP FIGHTING D: BOTH = VERY SCARY :(

   Doll: Ты даже не знаешь что эта штука делает. (You don't even know what that thing does.)

   Uzi: You wanting it tells me you shouldn't have it!

   Doll: Ты такая мелочная. (You are so petty.)

   Uzi: This is the only clue to what's wrong with me!

   (Electric sparks triggers Uzi to look over at N, seeing that both N and V have [ERROR: 606] on their visor. Uzi realizes that they are in danger.)

   Uzi: (Throwing the keybug, it hits Doll's face) Just leave us alone.

   (Uzi closes the door in Doll's face. Doll looks down at the keybug in her hands.)

   Doll: (To Khan) Вы воспитали хорошую дочь, Мистер Дорман. (You raised a good daughter, Mr. Doorman.)

   Khan: Heh, to spite me maybe.

   Doll: Боже, ладно. (Jeez, alright. She teleports away.)

   (Back in N's memories, V is trying to grab the tools with her claw but fails, while the Eldritch bangs its head against the wall .)

   Eldritch Cyn: Grab it. Just grab it. GRAB IT. Intimidating glare.

   N: Whoa, Cyn! For an eldritch... uh, monster thingy—

   Eldritch Cyn: The Solver of the Absolute Fabric, the void, the exponential end.

   N: ...Peep this...?

   (Using his teeth, he grabs V's glasses and puts them back over her eyes. This allows her to see clearer to pick up the tool.)

   N: I got you.

   V: ...Gold...en... Retrievers have...

   N: Gentle mouths, dude—

   Eldritch Cyn: (Grabs V and holds her up to the ceiling) Cute, false, gross...true. Let's just delete your OS's, then. (She prepares to wipe N's memory clean while N looks in horror.) Goodbye, "buddy". Execute.

   V: N!

   (Eldritch Cyn starts to swing a hammer with a sharp end into N's face... But she stops.)

   Eldritch Cyn: (Under severe lag) Wha-What-at i-is hap-pen-pen-pening?

   (Uzi regains control.)

   Uzi: U-ugh, so-r-ry. My freaking dad's stream— WHOA! (She accidentally hits N with the blunt part of the hammer.) Whoops!

   (Uzi releases V and she falls to the floor. N helps her up.)

   N: (Looks over at Uzi.) Uzi?

   Uzi: Don't freakin' dox me!

   N: Thanks.

   V: You little narc! Get out of my head!

   (N and V wake up in Uzi's room, back in the real world. Uzi chuckles devilishly as she turns around in her chair to face them. She drops the smile when V threatens her with a chainsaw.)

   utside, Doll teleports back out to the winter wastelands, where she meets J and Tessa.)

   Doll: Вот ваш ключ. (Here's your key. She throws the key to Tessa.) Возьми меня с собой. в этом сделка— (Take me with you. That's the deal—)

   (Tessa shoots her, but misses, probably due to Doll's Absolute Solver.)

   Tessa: ...Just checking. Let's go.

   (They turn around... And come face to face with Uzi, N, and V.)

   Everyone: HUH—

   (Credits roll.)

   (The first thing we see is a beautiful beach as seagulls squawk in the background. This beach is revealed to be a background on a computer monitor in an office setting.)

   (The lights suddenly go out as a Worker Drone, Amda, hides under the desk. She peeks out to see the paralyzed body of a fellow drone stuck in a boot loop. She crawls slowly towards her colleague to try and reach them as a claw emerges from the shadows. She doesn't notice this, however, as she finally reaches her fallen friend.)

   (A blue light flashes and she drags the drone by the foot. She stops to resume her hiding position, until she works up the courage to finish dragging the drone. But before she can reach it, two creatures grab the drone and tear it apart, oil spilling out everywhere.)

   (She quickly resumes hiding when a blue light shines before her. A Sentinel has found her location. As she tries to escape, the Sentinel flashes a beam of light into her eyes, boot looping her. The Sentinel crawls down and presumably feasts on her.)

   (All of this has been captured on a security camera.)

   (When we last left our heroes, they had just encountered J, Doll, and Tessa.)

   N: T-Tessa...?

   Tessa: (Hugs him) N! You remember– (She begins coughing.) Tall, handsome... Air's toxic... (Notices Uzi) Who is this little– (Uzi bites her finger.) Ah!

   Uzi: Uzi! Why are you here, human?! (Notices J) Real tired of killing this one.

   J: (Strokes her hair back) Effective drones were cloned more.

   N: (Chuckling) It is you.

   V: Classic J.

   Tessa: Cyn disappeared on Earth–

   J: Boss ran away.

   Tessa: (Annoyed) We mutually disengaged. Her last known act was siccing you lot on the human exoplanets.

   N: Why?

   J: That's what we're trying to figure out, bozo.

   (Suddenly, Doll uses her Absolute Solver to snatch the bug on top of Tessa's head into her hands and takes off.)

   Tessa: That's... kind of a big piece.

   (J deploys her wings)

   (J and Tessa chase Doll, firing at her, until she drops herself down a large shaft. Uzi, N, and V catch up.)

   Tessa: J, relay hand, Cyn's orders.

   (J brings up a screen.)

   J: Step one: Clear drop zone of life and construct spire. Step two–

   Tessa: Enter labs with this symbol.

   (She tears down some large paper to reveal a poster behind it. Taped near the bottom it reads: "CABIN FEVER")

   Tessa: Not too much to go off, but if Cyn wants these labs, we burn them down. That keybug's our way in. (She walks towards the edge of the scaffolding.) J, mind my ship.

   (Tessa tosses J the keys. J glances at N and V with uncertainty.)

   J: ...Of course, boss. (She flies off.)

   (Tessa continues to walk, only for Uzi to stand before her, blocking her path.)

   Uzi: Why involve Doll? What's happening to (looks down) ... her?

   Tessa: She reckons the humans did something to her folks down here. Gave them a sickness she inherited.

   Uzi: (Covers her collar) ...And?

   Tessa: I think she's right... (To N and V) Coming or what?

   (She jumps off, leaving the concerned trio wondering whether it's a good idea to follow her.)

   (The group land down the dark, damp cavern below the surface and begin to look around.)

   N: Is the secret elevator... labeled? (No answer. V rolls her eyes.)

   (As Tessa walks, she accidentally kicks a severed Drone arm. It rolls as she sees the piles of corpses. Everyone looks around at their besmirched setting. N looks like he's ready to vomit.)

   Tessa: Riiiight... Might be some security, specifically against... (points at them) you guys.

   (Uzi looks to her left. There's some writing on the wall which read "DON'T LOOK" and "THE LIGHT")

   (Scared, she slowly reaches out for N's hand.)

   Tessa: Humans-made security this human can control. Hehehehe! (Reaches for a paper)

   (Unfortunately, it says "ACCESS DENIED")

   Tessa: (Puts the paper back) ...Maybe.

   V: Anything to screw Cyn's plan.

   N: And for Mom backstory. (To Uzi) Right, dude?

   Uzi: ...Yeah.

   (They continue walking until they come across a directory. It states that the secret elevator is north of their direction. N giggles excitedly over being right and turns to his friends for validation. V's eye just twitches, while Uzi gives a supportive nods.)

   Tessa: Huh. Righty-oh. Sources say that way–

   (Before she can finish, she gets dragged off by her foot due to a trap.)

   Tessa: (Rapidly) Except I'm going this way, so save me if you can, THANKS!

   (The gang try to find where Tessa got dragged off to. While doing so, they stop at the sound of a child's laughter.)

   Uzi: ...Shoot the baby immediately?

   N: THAT'S NOT SOON ENOUGH!

   (The baby robot head suddenly grows legs and runs off before N could hit it. Suddenly, a long arm lands in front of them. The arm switches to a detonator-like device. They turn around to see a Worker Drone and the baby robot are behind them with the arm being attached to one of the Worker's antlers)

   Alice: (Chuckling) Hey, surface slickers.

   (An explosion occurs and everything goes black.)

   (The sound of an axe chopping is heard as Uzi wakes up. She looks around her as we see a magnet attached to her head. She looks to her right to see Alice chopping off the head of a now-deceased Amda. She tries to get up, but to no avail.)

   Alice: Sentinels picked at this one. I try and not damage good parts. Of course, some parts are more valuable than others, ain't they?

   (She pulls back a curtain to reveal grinning V strapped to a table)

   V: (Looking at Uzi and whispers) More valuable.

   (Alice gets ready to chop her head off.)

   Uzi: Whoa, hey, cut that thing up and you're gonna get a big creepy worm. An improvement.

   (V rolls her eyes)

   Alice: Nah, heat keeps 'em sluggish.

   (She hops on top of an oven and opens the door, revealing the contents inside: Murder Drone hearts.)

   Alice: Ain't our first rodeo.

   (She closes the door.)

   Uzi: (Grossed out) ...Okay, that's enough of this.

   (She tries to use her Absolute Solver but it doesn't work.)

   Alice: (Chuckles) Dealt with witches 'fore, too. (She brings Uzi's collar up close to hers.) Though, ain't seen 02 since she left us to die...!

   (In another room, Tessa is bound to a table.)

   Tessa: Little buddy, you're gonna get red and sad if you try that with me.

   (Beau is working on N, who seems to enjoy this, for some reason.)

   N: (Giggling like a small child) It tickles! The bad version, though!

   (Beau pauses for a bit.)

   N: ...Doing great, dude.

   Tessa: N, whose side– (She quiets down.)

   N: Tried sawing there?

   (Beau lowers his saw to a specific spot. N shakes his head "no". Beau moves his saw a little bit to N's right. N being the good teacher that he is winks, indicating "yes". Just as he's about to get to work.)

   Alice: (Over the radio) Beau, we've got Nori's kid here! (What sounds like a crunching bite followed by Uzi's laughter can be heard in the background.) Need more sedatives. It's bitey.

   (Beau grabs a couple more magnets and leaves. N waves goodbye, and Beau peeks his head in to wave back.)

   Tessa: Ugh, finally, the code. Lordy... (She takes the magnet off her head with a knife.) Walk and talk?

   (Back with Uzi. She gets the three magnets stuck to her head as she spits a severed piece of Alice's finger in Beau's face.)

   Uzi: How'd you know my mom? Was she cool? She didn't suck, did she?

   (Alice doesn't answer any of these, focusing on replacing her missing finger piece with a spare. Before she can get back to work.)

   Alice: (To Beau) Back to the others!

   (Beau hurriedly exits the room. On a monitor behind Alice, Uzi sees Tessa and N escaping their room. A bright light is suddenly shown in her face.)

   Alice: You're a lot like her, I'll say. 'Cept her yellow eyes.

   (She prepares to sever Uzi's finger with a hand pruner.)

   Uzi: (Batting her away) Easy, creep. You've got the wrong–

   (A blade at the end of Alice's tail is suddenly sunk into her hand.)

   Alice: Nori, right? Sure thought imploding all them folks was pretty slick.

   (Alice gets ready to sever her finger again. Uzi tries to use her Absolute Solver to stop her, to no avail.)

   Uzi: (Voice glitching) Wait, stop. Seriously, what are you talking about?

   (V winces as soon as Uzi's finger is cut off)

   (Beau enters Tessa and N's room, only to discover them missing. He goes out to warn Alice. Nearby, N watches Beau from behind a desk while Tessa is typing away on a computer.)

   N: They've gotta be in there, right?

   Tessa: No worries, we'll save V.

   (She gestures for N to sit down, but he kicks his chair away.)

   N: (Sternly) And Uzi.

   (Tessa turns back to the computer. With a few keystrokes, the room is filled with a yellow glow from the monitor.)

   Tessa: Wanna take a gander at Earth, N?

   N: No, Tessa, we don't have time–

   (Before he can finish, something on the monitor catches his attention.)

   (Meanwhile, in V and Uzi's room, Beau is looking through the security monitors for any sign of Tessa and N.)

   Alice: (Shoves Beau aside) They can't leave the office, idjit! (She turns back to Uzi.) Can't get back in our rooms, neither.

   (She presses a couple buttons and two doors close, one of which leading into the room their in now. She presses a third button. This opens a door to allow Sentinels loose.)

   Uzi: (Terrified) Wait...! Please...!

   (Alice sits down with "popcorn" (actually batteries) and watches the Sentinels roam the office complexes. One Sentinel devours the security camera in front of it. Uzi continues to attempt to use the Solver as Alice finds entertainment in the Sentinels' rampage.)

   (To N's horror, photos on the monitor show a live feed of Earth, which has been blown up.)

   Tessa: We know it mutates in damaged AI. It took Cyn as a host, then it took everything. The humans here saw what was happening at home. Thought they could understand it. (She pulls up a few images, then a security feed of a possessed Nori before the feed gets cut out.) All they did was spread it.

   N: Then Uzi... You can fix her, right? That's why you're here?

   Tessa: (Gets up and takes N's hand) I'm here to find which drones were infected. When we get to the labs and find that list, I'll need you to choose the universe over one little drone, N. Before she's not herself anymore...

   (N contemplates this. Suddenly, a Sentinel appears in front of him and attacks him. Alice continues watching this while Uzi struggles more to free herself. Just as the Sentinel is about to go in for the kill.)

   Tessa: Hey, fella. Me, human, order you to be a nice dingo, please?

   (Tessa extends her hand out for the Sentinel, causing it to bite her soon after.)

   Tessa: (Frees herself) Bad, dingo! Bad, dingo!

   (The Sentinel goes crazy, its vision showing a new objective: Be a good dingo until it smacks against a wall and collapses to the ground. A couple more Sentinels appear to corner Tessa as Alice continues to watch until the batteries levitate in the air. She looks behind her. Beau and various equipment are floating as well. Uzi turns around, but her eyes are now yellow.)

   Uzi/Absolute Solver: Oh, don't mind me.

   (V turns to her right, looking worried)

   (Uzi uses her Absolute Solver to destroy the door buttons, thus opening the doors and giving the Sentinels more free roaming in the area. The Sentinels make their way to Alice's room.)

   (Alice slowly closes the door before the Sentinels show up.)

   Alice: BEAU! HELP ME WITH–

   (It's too late. The Sentinels are here. Alice is flashed and paralyzed as the Sentinels enter the room, crushing Alice under their feet, thus getting rid of her for good. Beau frees V, and gets mauled by a Sentinel. V goes over to Uzi's table and gets cornered before she could save her. Just as V tries to fight back, the Sentinels have already all been killed, transformed into a flesh amalgamation. V looks over at Uzi, who's now unconscious.)

   Tessa: (Pokes N's face) Wakey, wakey.

   (N wakes up.)

   Tessa: Don't say I never did anything for–

   (V lands in the room, Uzi being carried on her back.)

   N: V! Is Uzi–

   V: Hurt. We're leaving.

   Tessa: I can take a squizz at–

   V: (Threateningly) You said you could control the Sentinels!

   Tessa: I... (looks down at her bitten arm) At least they can't boot loop me, but we'll just have to–

   V: (Turns to leave) Do whatever you want. N?

   (No response)

   Tessa: It's okay, N. I haven't been honest with V yet.

   V: ...What did she tell you?

   (At that moment, Uzi regains consciousness.)

   Uzi: (Groaning) Ow... My freaking head.... (Sees N) N?

   (N waves. Uzi runs and hugs him, and he silently returns the embrace. V stares at Tessa, her cold stare reflecting off Tessa's helmet.)

   (The Sentinel that bit Tessa awakens, its icy blue eyes changing to blood red. Its radar indicates bloody footprints nearby. It follows the trail until it comes across a message: HOLD STILL)

   (Uzi, N, V, and Tessa watch from above. Uzi silently looks at N.)

   Uzi: (Silently) U GOOD?

   (N shrugs.)

   Uzi: (Silently) TALK LATER?

   N: (Silently) IT SUCKS PRETTY HARD

   Uzi: (Silently) >:3

   (Suddenly, the Sentinel leaves. They get back to the ground when, in the distance, they see Doll, stuck in a boot loop and holding the bug in her hand.)

   Insect: PLEASE PLACE ME ON PROXIMITY READER (CABIN FEVER LABS).

   Uzi: That's... convenient.

   V: It's a trap!

   Uzi: Yeah, no... Nevermind.

   (She begins to use her Absolute Solver.)

   N And V: DON'T!

   (They stop her,a confused V looks at N behind Uzi’s back. Uzi is weirded out by this.)

   Tessa: (From afar) Oi! (She's holding the insect) Bloody convenient, eh?

   Insect: 🤢 OMG STOP STOP STOP STOP STOP

   (The trio make their way towards her. Uzi and N hold hands along the way. They briefly disconnect, but reconnect after a few seconds. After catching up with Tessa, V notices this romantic sight.)

   V: Ew.

   Tessa: Don't date my robot, please.

   Uzi: (To Tessa) He's his own person! (To V) You, ew! You're mean!

   (Suddenly, the insect is lifted up. It flies back into Doll's hand, revealing it was, indeed, a trap, as Doll used a buffering GIF to imitate the bootloop. Doll places the bug on the proximity reader, then uses her powers to open all the doors in the area. She falls down the shaft as the elevator arrives.)

   Insect: 💀 Bruh.JPG

   (The Sentinels have arrived.)

   Tessa: Uh-oh, hope I don't human everywhere!

   (Tessa spreads the blood from her arm onto the ground in front of her to ward off the Sentinels, which aren't programmed to target humans. The red-eyed Sentinel examines the scene; most of the Sentinels turn their noses from the blood and walk away, uninterested. Tessa smugly leans on her sword and the red-eyed Sentinel slithers down. It licks the blood off its teeth, then roars a hearty roar and slowly advances—it's acquired a new taste for humans. Tessa is shocked out of her bliss and hurriedly readies her sword, while V crawls to the ceiling. Ready to aid in her friends' escape, Uzi uses her Absolute Solver to break a hole into the back of the elevator.)

   N: Uzi, no!

   (The Absolute Solver symbol suddenly glows yellow, causing her fingers to crack, bend, and contort in all the ways no finger should. It produces a black hole that blows a wide, oozing opening into the elevator.)

   Tessa: Whoops, all mitosis!

   (Tessa sprays more blood in the way of the advancing red-eyed Sentinel. The Sentinel regurgitates a severed Murder Drone arm and, clasping it firmly in its mouth, fires a bullet at Tessa, only for V to get in the way and catch the bullet with her bare claws. She tosses the bullet back at the gun arm, disarming it. It turns out she's wearing her old, broken glasses, which sharpened her vision enough to perform such a feat)

   V: Did I get it?

   (Uzi's Absolute Solver is out of control, distorting the hole in front of her. She panics, panting heavily as she tries restraining her glitched arm. Left with no other choice, N slices the mangled hand off with his sword. For a split second as she falls back, her head snaps towards N, eyes gleaming yellow and mouth twisted into a grin, showing him a single message: MISS ME?)

   (N catches her in his arms. Uzi coughs up oil as her eyes switch between purple and yellow, her voice overlapping with the Absolute Solver's.)

   Uzi/Absolute Solver: (Severely glitching) What the hell is going on?

   Tessa: Bugger, that's bad. Come on, team!

   (Tessa pulls Uzi and N into the elevator, only for it to get stuck.)

   N: V, come on!

   (V is not listening. She's still fighting the red-eyed Sentinel. Still clutching the severed arm, the Sentinel extends its blade and deftly swings at V. With her vision in peak condition, however, V's sword fight ends in seconds as she knocks the Sentinel to the ground.)

   (Just as she readies her arm cannon at the Sentinel, another pulls out the power supply to the elevator, causing it to rise slightly. With both sides of the elevator wide open, the team inside are sitting ducks. The Sentinel flashes its lights; V whips her head back to avoid the light, causing her glasses to fly off her face. Another Sentinel crushes the glasses beneath its foot. V is surrounded.)

   V: Hey, um–

   N: NO, NO, NO! V, WE NEED YOU!

   V: ...Nah. (To Uzi) Uzi?

   (Uzi looks at V, her expression grim.)

   V: ...I trust you.

   (V slashes the elevator cables with her laser cannon.)

   N: V, PLEASE! (N covers his head with his hands)

   (V doesn't get in. With a resigned smile, she gives one final salute as the Sentinels surround her and attack as the cables snap, sending the elevator down.)

   (Credits roll.)

   (The episode opens with shots of a cathedral, two Sentinels chained to some rocks and a sign hanging from two of the spires displaying "LAB SPACE FOR RENT, LEASED. RSCH012 - CABIN FEVER".)

   (Inside the cathedral, JCJenson scientists are running around, working on various tasks.)

   Dr. Ridley: Science holding strong, sir! (dramatically) Math.

   (At the back of the cathedral, Nori is shown to be suspended in the air by chains. Nori's ID card floats by. Nori looks up at with a wide, sinister grin, her eyes yellow, implicating that the Absolute Solver is possessing her.)

   Dr. Ridley: Dr Chambers!

   Mitchell: (gasps) O-Oh, no- I-I-I'm not... (An intern, Mitchell, has accidentally worn the uniform of a scientist called Dr. Chambers, causing the other scientists to call upon him. He looks at his name tag on his uniform, and it indeed says Dr. Chambers. Mitchell looks over by the hanging rack to see his actual uniform and his name tag, which says "MITCHELL (INTERN)" still hanging on a coat rack. He turns back to Dr. Ridley.)

   Mitchell: (whispers, pointing at his name tag) Is this guy important?

   (Claw-like tentacles break the chains that were tied to Nori. One of the tentacles throws a spear at Mitchell, which hits his clipboard. Another scientist turns on a machine that looks like some sort of summoning circle which brings Nori to the floor and causes her to collapse. Nori's tentacles try to grab Mitchell but glitch out and disappear back into Nori.)

   Dr. Ridley: Chambers! (Dr. Ridley throws Mitchell Yeva's ID card.) Get 48!

   Mitchell: Right, so... (chuckles nervously) This a doctor-specific thing...?

   (Dr. Ridley pulls out a crucifix, which turns out to be a USB, and walks towards Nori to use it on her.)

   Mitchell: 'Cause I'm on it!

   (Mitchell runs out of the cathedral doors, fumbling with the ID card. He look back to the cathedral to see Nori, at an awkward angle, staring sinisterly at him, before the doors slam shut. The two Sentinels screech at Mitchell as he runs past into a different section of Cabin Fever Labs.)

   (Mitchell ends up in a hallway with lockers of the test subjects of Cabin Fever Labs on one side: Some ID numbers include 029 - Amda, 006 - Riid, 048 - Yeva, 024 - Triss, 019 - Aatt, 002 - Nori. Mitchell opens up Yeva's locker to find her chained up, playing Tetris in Russian. Mitchell double checks Yeva's ID card and shrugs while Yeva rolls her eyes and bangs her head against the locker wall.)

   (Mitchell and Yeva run back to the Cathedral, with Yeva's hand being pulled by Mitchell. Annoyed with him pulling her, Yeva then pulls her hand away while lightly slapping Mitchell's hand. Mitchell looks at where the two sentinels were chained, but they have appeared to have escaped. Mitchell then bursts through the cathedral door, breathless. Dr. Ridley is at the back of the cathedral, crouched next to a powered off Nori, the crucifix jammed into her broken visor.)

   Dr. Ridley: Chambers! Get over here!

   Mitchell: Y-Yep, um...So, I (He steps backwards, preventing Yeva from opening the door to actually get inside by leaning against the doors.) ...couldn't find 48?

   (Yeva, who is stuck outside, gives a confused look. She looks around in fear.)

   Dr. Ridley: Whatever!

   Mitchell: Uh...Here I...come...

   (Mitchell walks forward when he approaches the same crucifix he saw earlier in a small pool of blood, so he decides to investigate. He is nearly grabs it before he sees Dr. Ridley crouching in the pew, clutching her shoulder, as her hand seems cut off and lying on the floor in front of her. Mitchell says nothing and looks at Ridley from his spot. There is a long pause. Suddenly, a tentacle grabs Dr. Ridley through the pew's benches as she screams. The tentacle drags Dr. Ridley through the cathedral, slamming her against a pillar and then into a hole that is under the summoning circle as everything glitches out; It turns out that everything in the cathedral is a hologram façade, all caused by the Absolute Solver.)

   (The lights in the cathedral go out as stalactites start falling through the ceiling. Mitchell steps forward to dodge the rocks, grabbing the crucifix just in time as he rolls away dodging one stalactite that drops, but that now puts him directly in the path of the hole. Nori emerges from the hole, now having the claw-like tentacles from before, and walks slowly towards Mitchell while her claws drag behind her.)

   Nori: (Fully Solver possessed) Thanks for the new host...intern

   (Nori takes the crucifix from Mitchell with her Solver and throws it towards his masked face.)

   Nori: MacGuffin.

   (A splatter is heard as everything turns to static. The view zooms out to reveal it was all recorded footage on a monitor. A heart brings up the crucifix up to the screen, inspecting it while listening to peppy music. It takes a sip of oil from a carton. The heart marks out an area of a map of the cathedral, before taking off its headphones. The heart jumps off the desk, puts on a mining helmet, and grabs a pickaxe and a box before heading off into the hole the Absolute Solver created. The view then focuses on one of the TV monitors, which is showing a view of the elevator entrance.)

   (Elevator ding)

   (The elevator crashes, sending Tessa, Uzi, and N flying. Rocks crush the elevator.)

   (N looks on with horror, before he walks over to the rubble and uses a gun to blast his way through to the elevator. When that doesn't work, he tries to use his claws to try and claw the rocks away, launching away as many as he can try.)

   N: Uzi! Help! Use your Solver!

   Tessa: N, watch it!

   (N has accidentally thrown a large boulder at a weakened and panting Uzi, who has split it apart with her Solver, but yellow sparks are also emerging. Uzi is covering her bleeding right eye.)

   Uzi: I... don't think I sh-should. I'm sorry, N.

   N: (stops what he is doing, concerned) -Oh, no, no. It's okay. Uzi, I - I am so sorry-

   Tessa: (Draws out her sword) Enough, N. We'll save V after we finish here. (Uzi looks worried. Tessa puts away her sword.) (Sweetly to Uzi) Uzi, let's have you sit this one out, eh? Box over there. (The view shows a box with a lantern on it, which is just near the team) Robots like boxes, right?

   Uzi: (confused) What? No, I-

   Tessa: (to N) N.

   N: (sounding hesitant) Uzi, there, um... might be some stuff down here that you don't want to see.

   (Uzi senses the betrayal in N's words, and starts backing away a bit.)

   Uzi: Ohhhh, what the hell is going on?

   N: Nothing! We don't know everything yet, but... (points at Uzi and looking at Tessa at the same time) We're not gonna hurt you. Okay?

   Uzi: --Hurt me?

   (N realizes Uzi has misnterpreted his words. Uzi's hand creates a small black hole. She tries to redirect it, but instead it ends up causing a cave-in. N tries to walk forward to her, but Uzi steps away from him, separating her away from the rest of the group as the mine shaft collapses.)

   (Thad and Lizzy are outside on the top of the surface, walking towards the Corpse Spire. She is texting on her phone with Thad right behind her.)

   Thad: -Aaand you won't tell me why we're wandering around 'cause...?

   Lizzy: I'm a good friend, and secrets are blackmail. And it's not about football.

   Thad: Okay. Does your secret friend want to know about football, or...?

   (Lizzy looks annoyed.)

   (A deep, ominous rumbling is heard, and many car alarms are triggered. Thad, Lizzy, and all of the various objects around them starts floating up.)

   Both: Whoa, whoa!

   (The gravity returns to normal, and Thad and Lizzy both fall back down.)

   (A landing pod suddenly flies over them, and lands on the side of the Corpse Spire. J flies out and up into the spire.)

   Thad: So, is that related to the thing you're looking fo--

   Lizzy: No. (laughs) Yeah, yeah. No, it is.

   (N wakes back up after being knocked out. His visor reads, "SYS STATUS: KNOCKED TF OUT...")

   (Waking up, N gasps and tries to pull out his left arm, which is stuck in the rock.)

   N: (shouting) UZI! UZI!

   (N looks at his left hand. It has been pierced by a piece of metal, and is stuck. He sighs.)

   N: (pulls out a saw) I deserve this. I deserve this. I deserve this.

   (N is about to begin to saw his arm off until he suddenly hears V giggling. The lights flicker above her to reveal that she's waving at him ominously, wearing her old maid outfit as well.)

   N: ... AA--

   (In another area, Uzi finds a bulletin board, and takes a look at it. There is a post of Nori possessed, with Team 06 (led by Dr. Ridley) tasked to use the fail-safe USB. Another post shows an image of the cathedral.)

   (Uzi continues, finding a skeleton holding up a lamp. Uzi grabs the lamp with her tail before backing away and running toward the end of the hallway. She peeks her head from her spot and takes one last look.)

   V: I missed you, N.

   N: (panicking as he rapidly tries to saw his left arm off.) -T-Thank you, mine shaft trauma ghost. I can hear you fine from there.

   V: You know, you're one of the main reasons (voice glitching out) I wanted your team to retain your personalities.

   (N stops sawing.)

   V: You always surprised me.

   (An eldritch claw crushes the lamp above them, while a tentacle grabs N's leg, breaking off his arm in the process.)

   N: Huh?

   (Cyn emerges from the shadow.)

   Solver: Loved doing anything.

   (The Solver hugs N, triggering a flashback. N's face turns into a "X".)

   (Ominous rumbling is heard as it rains. N, with the X on his visor, has a bit of human flesh between his teeth. He is holding a person's corpse and standing in a city road with buildings all around him. N looks around, and the person's head falls off. He drops the body, and screaming is heard as there are robots flying around everywhere.)

   (It's revealed to be Earth, with many Disassembly Drones flying around, attacking innocent humans. A massive black hole looms in the red sky. J fires a machine gun on some humans, before she and V swoop in and start eating the corpses of the humans she herself fired on. V gobbles up an arm. A helicopter opens fire on them, but J uses her wings to block all the bullets. While the helicopter continues firing, a giant eldritch tentacle emerges out of a building, stabbing the helicopter and exploding it. More Disassembly Drones fly around, pulling the human corpses apart. The flashback ends.)

   (Back in reality, N wakes up with an error window appearing on his visor. It reads: "ACCESS DENIED. CONTACT ADMIN DARKXWOLF17". N gasps.)

   Solver: Thanks for clearing the way on this planet, too. Let's eat.

   (Cyn disappears into a hologram, and the tentacle drags N along. He shrieks until the Solver pulls him out of view and deeper into the mines.)

   (Deep rumbling is heard as small rocks fall from the ceiling of the cavern the cathedral is in. Lightning zaps from the cathedral. Uzi steps out of the mine shaft tunnel.)

   (Uzi looks at her palm, which is holding her 002 choker necklace. She puts back on her bracelet around her neck, before flying towards the cathedral. She enters, and flies to the chandelier. Uzi looks at the giant hole, before Nightcore from a computer suddenly starts playing behind her. Uzi flies to the desk, and lands on the chair. She turns off the music with her tail, before pushing the teddy bear on the seat out of the way.)

   (Uzi looks at the monitor before rewinding it all the way to the beginning, and playing it. As she watches, she gets progressively more horrified and disturbed at what she is seeing on the screen.)

   (N is being dragged along the tunnels by the Solver. He tries to use his laser to stop it, to no avail. The tentacle pulls him into a small hole with many hands in it. N tries to grab onto the ground with his claws, but he still gets pulled in, screaming as he struggles to escape.)

   (Suddenly, before N can be dragged even further, the same pickaxe from the beginning of the episode servers the tentacle. It's the Heart.)

   Heart: Hup!

   (The Heart jumps off the pickaxe handle and throws the Crucifix Patch at N, which lands in his hands as it jumps on him to confront him.)

   Heart: Why is Cyn after her own murder-pet? You stupid or something?

   N: Oh, yeah.

   Heart: Cool by me, then. Drive.

   (The Solver is fast approaching them, wailing and screeching. N shoots a missile to block off the Solver, but it breaks through the rocks and rubble easily.)

   Heart: Hey, you look familiar. Watch the road. You got wings?

   N: Um, I guess-

   Heart: Focus! Left! Think you can get this cross to the surface? I'm lookin' for a hunk named Khan.

   N: Uzi's dad? What-

   (Using her Solver powers, the Heart suddenly slams N into the wall of a side tunnel. The eldritch creature rushes by past them without noticing where they are. Once it's gone, the Heart turns to face N.)

   Heart: How do you know my daughter?

   (Thad and Lizzy are looking at the spire from behind a pile a snow, trying to come up with a way of attacking J.)

   Thad: So, how do we-

   Lizzy: Punch.

   Thad: Can't her hands be guns?

   Lizzy: Kick, also.

   Thad: (chuckles evilly) Yeah.

   (Lizzy starts rolling her sleeves up while Thad does a backflip and starts walking in behind her. Before they can reach the spire, it suddenly explodes, sending the two drones flying. J flies out of the spire and back into her own ship, before taking off.)

   (Thad and Lizzy walks towards the spire. The landing pod in the middle is now on fire. Thad covers his mouth in shock, while Lizzy smiles, takes a photo, and looks at it. Khan appears behind them, looking for parts to rebuild Uzi's railgun. He gives Thad the blueprints and takes away Lizzy's phone.)

   Khan: Part 2A, check the perimeter.

   Thad: M-Mr. Doorman, sir?

   Khan: Bad crowd, those Murder Drones. Destroying ways off the planet... (dramatically) MY WIFE... (normal) ...my daughter having interest beyond cannibalism, and "Nightcore"?

   (Ominous rumbling is heard as the planet's gravity is messed up again, and the trio starts floating. Only Thad and Lizzy starts wailing, with Khan being apparently unfazed. Once it stops, the three land back on the ground, with Khan landing normally and Thad and Lizzy faceplanting into the snow.)

   Khan: It's the end times! (chuckles) If my wife's closet is right, this planet is gonna try to eat us soon.

   (Thad is about to make a comment, but Lizzy appears unconvinced, making the "don't answer" gesture.)

   (Back in the mines, Tessa is looking through the lockers where the drones were kept chained up. She finds two dead drones and then an empty locker, belonging to Nori. Tessa accesses a computer, which requires a biometric check. Tessa takes off a glove, and puts her finger to the scanner.)

   (Tessa sets the computer to self destruct, before walking away and putting her glove back on. A timer starts beeping, and then the entire locker area explodes, which Tessa turns around to look at the fire. Suddenly, a knife appears, but Tessa catches it, and Doll teleports there to confront Tessa.)

   Doll: Где заплатка, человек? (Where's the patch, human?)

   Tessa: Hmm. Not sure what you me-

   (Doll teleports behind Tessa, but Tessa blocks Doll's cleaver attack.)

   Doll: USB-патч. Чтобы изгнать одержимость Решателя. Где он? (The USB Patch. To exorcise the Solver's possession. Where is it?)

   Tessa: So, that's what they were doing down here, huh? Crucifix-lookin' thing? (Tessa then holds the cleaver in front of her sword to make them look like the Crucifix patch)

   Doll: Разве вы не знаете? (Wouldn't you know?)

   Tessa: Had my suspicions. But they kept cutting my feed. (Tessa slices off Doll's eyepatch with her sword rapidly. The eyepatch falls to the ground.) Patch to save yourself, huh?

   (The extent of Doll using the Absolute Solver has caused her left eye to be completely shattered; blood is falling out of the hole where Doll's eye should be when she takes her hand off her missing eye.)

   Doll: (She is not about to give up on her search and defiantly keeps her knife pointed at Tessa.) Я не позволю ему использовать меня, чтобы поглотить планету! (I will not let it use me to consume the planet!)

   Tessa: (Twirling the knife with her finger) Hmm. Not sure it needs you, buddy.

   (Tessa throws her knife at Doll, distracting her. Doll takes a second and looks back, but Tessa is now gone. The fire behind Doll suddenly disappears as it gets absorbed by a different Absolute Solver, and everything goes dark. Doll activates her own Solver, illuminating a small red light around Doll.)

   (A distant muffled screech and footsteps can be heard approaching Doll. Doll prepares to defend herself with her Solver. The screeching stops, before rapid tapping begins, followed by more screeching. Doll sees something on her visor, but unfortunately for her, she can't interact with it. In desperation, Doll throws a rock at the creature, but the rock easily gets sliced in half. The creature suddenly appears, and attacks, before Doll's visor goes out.)

   Solver: Thanks for the new host, intern.

   (We are back in the flashback in the cathedral, where a possessed Nori is about to kill Mitchell with the Crucifix Patch.)

   (Nori takes the crucifix from Mitchell with her Solver and throws it towards his masked face.)

   Solver: MacGuffin.

   (The USB suddenly stops inches from Mitchell's face. Yeva has stopped the USB, and she throws it into Nori's face.)

   Solver: (voice glitching) O-O-Ow. What in the science-

   (Nori pulls out the Crucifix Patch, and throws it into the hole behind her, before collapsing. Mitchell decides it's a great idea to get out of there, as he quickly salutes Yeva and runs off. Yeva approaches to help Nori up. However, Nori's right hand is still possessed by the Solver, and is creating a Null singularity. Yeva quickly creates a knife, and slices off Nori's hand, which falls into the hole. Yeva helps Nori get up.)

   (Suddenly, a bright yellow light emerges out from the hole, as the two try to escape. We zoom out to reveal the planet imploding from the core collapse as seen back in the pilot episode.)

   (Present day Nori, as a Heart, appears.)

   Nori: Then, the planet kinda half-imploded anyway. The humans all- (mimicking throat slicing, before gagging.) Woke up on the surface, brain scrambled enough to have a kid, and the rest is dumb stupid history.

   (Nori is showing various items to N, including a photo of past Nori and Khan, and a drawing Nori made 47 days after the core collapse. N claps.)

   Nori: Stop that. (She throws the paper at N.) Now, the Solver's found its way back to finish the job. Who's its host?

   N: Um... like, Uzi? And a red-eyed, uh-

   Nori: Yeva's kid. I know, dummy. Which one was just trying to eat us?

   (N seems to understand who Nori is talking about.)

   (Uzi is staring at a static screen, her entire visor covered by the Absolute Solver. The screen goes dark, and gets shattered. Uzi gasps as all of the entire cathedral and candles go dark. Uzi tries to take off her bracelet after realizing what it was associated with. The lightning from the hole reveals a certain other drone is approaching Uzi.)

   (Doll has managed to escaped the hole after apparently being dragged down after being attacked. However, she's suffered fatal wounds. With parts and oil falling out of her body, Doll suddenly slips, catching Uzi's attention as she turns around and her eyes widen with horror. Doll's visor displays the words ДАЙ ОТПОР (FIGHT BACK).)

   Tessa: Yikes.

   (Uzi, frozen in fear, turns around. Tessa is leaning by the door.)

   Tessa: Someone's been busy.

   (We're back in the mine shaft with Nori and N.)

   Nori: (tossing the Patch at N's head, which bounces off his head.) Just hurry, stupid.

   (Nori releases N from the wall.)

   N: (standing and saluting nervously) O-Of course! Uzi's gonna freak out when I tell h-

   (As N is running, Nori pins him to the ceiling with her pickaxe. It holds N by his jaw while Nori stands in front of him.)

   Nori: Tell her I'm alive, you die. (Nori pokes N in the face.)

   N: Sorry, ma'am. I won't keep secrets from Uzi anymore, even if you say it might hurt her.

   (Nori drops N to the ground.)

   Nori: Nuance alert, ma'am. I caused every horror in her life. Destroyed the planet, got you things sicced here-

   N: Gave her ungodly eldritch genetics! (Nori slams the Crucifix on N's face with her Solver) Blagh!

   Nori: No time! (pushes N into the ground with the Crucifix and pressures it on his face.) Promise.

   (N speaks muffled, indistinct speech because the Crucifix is on his face. Nori lifts the Crucifix back up.)

   N: I promise. To wait until you're ready to tell her yourself? (N smiles as he points to Nori.)

   Nori: (She rolls her eyes before looking back to N.) Ugh. Bite me.

   (Back in the cathedral.)

   Uzi: T-Tessa, I--I-I didn't- (Tessa walks towards Uzi, draws out her sword, and drags it against the floor, with sparks dragging against the blade.) Sh-She just- Wait! (Uzi stumbles as her core and eyes continue switching from purple to yellow. She stumbles by a pillar, where one wing and an eldritch claw appears out her back and latch on to the pillar.) Something else did this to Doll! You-You have to believe...

   (Uzi prepares to use her Solver powers on Tessa, but realizes she can't interact with Tessa.)

   Tessa: No worries. Makes my job easier. (Tessa kicks Uzi's foot and drops her to the ground, then drags her sword across Uzi's wing.) Thought there'd be more of you Solver freaks anyway.

   (Uzi again attempts to use her right hand to use her Solver, but Tessa puts her foot on Uzi's hand to prevent it and puts her sword on Uzi's chest, preparing to drive it through with her fist. Before she can, a swish is heard with a blade right by Tessa's neck. N is back, and he has his sword right up to her neck.)

   N: (serious tone) You knew about the patch, yes or no? One chance.

   Tessa: (slyly) Cute. (She puts one finger on N's blade and pushes it away. Tessa turns around to face him.) You know why I keep you around, N-

   (N suddenly decapitates Tessa without another word. Her body starts stumbling backwards, before her head falls off. Blood drips from N's sword and from her head as a trail of blood is shown from the rolling helmet from a flash of lightning. N is panting as the large"X" on his visor returns to his eye and the small X on his other eye when he looks up. N slumps against his blade right as Uzi pulls out the sword in her chest, and tosses it aside without a word. N kneels right beside her, as she is on her hands and knees. She grabs onto the Crucifix as N gets beside her to help her up, but she is keeping her head down and not saying a word.)

   N: Hey, buddy. Yeah, that should help. (N lets Uzi take the Crucifix from his hand.) All I know is, I need you... to figure things out... (N holds Uzi's hand in his. The X on his left eye disappears as he helps her to her feet) together.

   (Uzi suddenly crushes N's hand, causing him to wince in pain. The voice of the Solver giggles strangely, and Uzi suddenly destroys the Crucifix Patch with her Solver using just her finger, first purple, then appearing in the color of a brief yellow as the pieces fall. N is shocked as his eyes widen in fear.)

   Solver: (giggles, then reveals Uzi's face now sporting a sadistic grin and neon yellow eyes.) That's very sweet, big brother (Uzi, now fully possessed by the Absolute Solver, throws N into a pillar and restrains him with a claw.) Too bad you've served your purpose. (Uzi has her back turned to him and finally faces him as she walks in the same way the Solver did.) Don't worry. Your backups will forgive me. (Uzi grows a second claw from her back and prepares to kill N.)

   (Suddenly, a pickaxe flies by, deflecting Uzi's claw attack. Nori has arrived just in time. She jumps from the top while her pickaxe flies around rapidly, slicing off Uzi's hands and eldritch claws as the pickaxe returns back to her when she gets on N's shoulder.)

   Solver: (once her claws and hands drop after they are sliced, confused) Nori? You're dead.

   Nori: (Points her pickaxe while glaring) You're frickin' grounded.

   Solver: Angry.

   (Uzi regenerates a claw, and tries to swipe at N and Nori. N flies up, and Nori throws her pickaxe at Uzi's face. N prepares to shoot Uzi with his laser cannon, but refrains when he sees her look at him. Uzi, grinning sadistically, takes this opportunity, and teleports over, throwing N and Nori towards a wall near the roof. Uzi pins Nori against the wall, and N draws out his sword. Once again, he cannot bring himself to harm her and holds back. Uzi torments N by grabbing the blade herself and forcing it into her own neck. Nori, however, has had enough, and forces them both apart.)

   (Nori slaps Uzi once with her claw, then with the pickaxe, before hitting her away with the Absolute Solver. N smiles, but is immediately reprimanded by Nori, who slaps him as well and gives him an angered glare. However, Uzi regenerates her hand, begins creating many Null holes, and throws them at N and Nori, who both nod to finish this. N flies and dodges the holes, then manages to grab Uzi's hand for a second before Nori cuts her hand off, deleting all of the Null holes. Nori jumps on Uzi's face to distract her, while N flies around, opening fire at Uzi to distract her. N flies into Uzi, knocking both of them off the roof of the cathedral. Nori, going for the kill, throws the pickaxe at Uzi, but Uzi winks at N. Knowing what will happen if he doesn't do something, N drops Nori and swoops in to push Uzi out of the way, giving her a sad smile. For a split second, Uzi fights back against her Solver possession, her eyes briefly turning purple, but it fails. N comes in contact with the pickaxe and ends up in pieces on the floor.)

   (Nori looks down from the top of the cathedral, but is suddenly picked up by Uzi with a squeak. She throws Nori up, and hits her using the pickaxe as a baseball bat. Nori lands on a window, and Uzi lands on top. She grabs Nori while laughing, and throws the pickaxe at N down below, knocking it to the side of his head. Uzi slowly puts Nori into her mouth, ready to eat Nori.)

   (N's severed arms gets to work writing a message with oil.)

   N: (slightly panicking) Nori! I should mention, Uzi and I, uh...

   (Uzi, still with Nori nearly placed in her mouth, looks down towards N. He has written "HANG OUT? We just kinda are hanging out a lot idk" and a few hearts on the floor. N gives a sheepish thumbs up with one of his arms and wears an awkward smile.)

   (Uzi takes Nori out of her mouth, deadpan and confused.)

   Solver: What?

   Nori: Uzi Doorman. (Nori, now angry, turns to face Uzi.) Those things killed your frickin' mother!

   (Nori slaps Uzi so hard she sends Uzi crashing into the floor below.)

   Solver: (voice glitching into Uzi's voice.) Ow! I'm not-

   (Uzi starts to regains full control over her body. Her eyes revert from yellow to purple.)

   Uzi: Hey, lady! You don't frickin' own me! (Uzi's eyes turn from yellow and become her normal neon purple, which become a glare.)

   N: Ha-ha-aaaAAH!

   (Uzi kicks Nori into the hole, and a basketball bounce sound being heard as Nori falls into the pit.)

   N: UZI!

   Uzi: (turns around to face N) WHAT?! We did not discuss being gross and- (shrieking)

   N: That was your MOM!

   Uzi: WHAT?!

   N: (Realizes he broke his promise) Wait, no!

   (Both continue shrieking before finally embracing each other, with Uzi's visor showing free-flowing tears.)

   (We zoom out into Tessa's helmet, which is rolling towards the hole. Right before it falls in, someone's foot steps on it, and picks it up. A headless Tessa puts on her helmet, screwing it back in place, before unzipping her spacesuit, which falls to the ground with a squelch. A tentacle places the helmet down while wet squelching is being heard, and the ungodly eldritch being walks towards Doll's body as it drag it away with a tentacle, catching Uzi and N's attention.)

   (The creature is munching away at Doll's body, with yellow lightning emerging from its body. It finds Doll's heart and slurps it up with ease. The monster has a "MARKED FOR DISASSEMBLY" armband on its arm, and a human hand overlaps a drone hand. Crunching is heard from the eldritch creature moving its body to the right positions. The creature is revealed to be Cyn, using Tessa's corpse as a walking skinsuit. Uzi and N look on with shock and concern.)

   Cyn: (laughs) Oh, yes. Get snuck up-on.

   (Yellow Xs appear in Cyn's hollow eye sockets once she turns to face them, while she also wields a twisted grin with her tongue out. Cyn jumps away from the body and starts running around like a spider, then teleports towards N.)

   Cyn: (voice glitching) Neck bite. (Cyn bites N's neck. Uzi activates her Solver with her right hand and tries to stop her, but gets stabbed.) Stab.

   (Cyn drags N and Uzi towards the hole.)

   Cyn: It's been fun. And, also, that's sarcasm. (Cyn tosses N next to Uzi) Honestly, I'm starving. (Cyn jumps into the hole while sarcastically saluting them off.)

   (A massive yellow light emerges from the hole, with Absolute Solver symbols covering the walls. Many tentacles emerge out, flailing wildly. The column of yellow light erupts upward out of the cathedral, through the entrance to Cabin Fever Labs, and up into the sky, punching a hole in the clouds. The moons of Copper 9 shine clearly through. J's landing pod arrives, and lands. J flies out, landing on one leg.)

   J: Ride's good to go, boss. (car alarm beeps) Just say...

   (An approaching engine can be heard. J looks up, and suddenly gets hit by a bus, which sends her and the keys flying.)

   J: Agh! (The keys falls out into the hole leading underground. J is already upset about losing the keys, and switches to a machine gun.) Who are you idiots?

   (Lizzy and Thad stand in the fog, not replying. Khan is resting on the roof of the bus. Thad is twirling the pipe he used back in Pilot, and Lizzy powers up Uzi's new railgun.)

   (A warning alert that reads "PRIOR HAZARD" appears on J's visor, which means she hasn't forgotten about her previous encounter with Uzi's railgun. J, confidence dropping, narrows her glare and frowns further.)

   (Two tentacles emerge out of the hole, forming a mocking heart to mock Uzi and N of their love for each other. They grab onto Uzi and N by their ankles and prepare to drag them in. Uzi grabs onto N, who has a warning symbol covering his visor, and impales her hand in a bone to stop being pulled in. N wakes up and looks at Uzi with fear evident in his gaze.)

   Uzi: Hey. Thanks for, like... (The keys fall past them. Uzi looks up to see them and then looks back to N.) ...Everything.

   N: Uzi, don't you dare!

   (Uzi throws N up, and jumps in the air with a soft grunt as N looks in fear again. She cuts off N's right leg with the bone, then places the keys on his chest with her Solver so he can escape. Uzi's visor displays the words "DIE MAD", before she pushes N out of the cathedral with her Solver. N goes flying and bounces off one of the steps as she gets pulled into the hole by the tentacles.)

   (Uzi bites off one of the tentacles so she can get into a better pose. Yellow lightning crackles around her, and she closes her eyes. Everything goes dark.)

   (Soft knocking sounds are heard as small pebbles hit Uzi's face).

   (Uzi wakes up, and realizes she is in space, floating above Copper 9. There is a giant glowing yellow hole leading to the core of Copper 9.)

   (Credits roll silently)

   (It opens with a field of stars and zooms in to a distant view of Copper 9 and its moons, before switching to a view of the surface and the corpse spire)

   (Inside a car, two skeletons can be seen. A bright flash of light appears in the background, followed by a shockwave that breaks the windshield. This turns on the car's radio, and melancholy music starts playing. The radio displays the word NULL)

   (The camera cuts to a view of a skeleton and drone hand with a traffic light blinking in the background)

   (Inside Doll's home, the bugs are starting to float up)

   (Nori's drawings are seen floating up in her closet)

   (The camera cuts to a view of the Worker Drone corpses killed by Uzi during their class trip floating, before a shockwave cracks the ice on the lake)

   (The camera cuts to a view of the Teacher grading an essay by Uzi. The essay, titled "Dumb Stupid Essay" consists entirely of the phrase "I AM GOD" repeated over and over. Papers, desks, chairs, etc. are all floating around. Suddenly, everything falls back to the floor, and air rushes by the windows, before the outside fades away to stars. Teacher walks to the door, and the view pans down to reveal a massive gaping hole on Copper 9 going all the way down to the core. it zooms into the core to the Absolute Sover's core. Giant yellow glowing tentacles reach out from the core, grabbing onto the various pieces of floating crust. One of the tentacles slaps Teachers face. Teacher makes a "why" gesture, before the tentacle starts pulling the classroom into the core)

   (The camera cuts to Uzi, who is watching this from far away. Uzi starts flipping and spinning out of control, before a large boulder being moved by someone's Absolute Solver hits her, and she grabs onto it. In the distance, Nori is jumping around the rocks, headed towards Uzi. Uzi says something, which appears to be the word "mom", but being in the vacuum of space, nothing comes out)

   (Nori grabs a rock, spins it, and scratches "WHOOPS" on it, while pointing at the core of Copper 9 and shrugs. Uzi displays "HOW STOP?" on her visor. Nori scratches an image of the crucifix patch and "PATCH?" on the rock. Uzi makes a gesture indicating that it got destroyed, before displaying on her visor "SOLVER CONTROL ME AGAIN?". Nori throws her choker at Uzi. From Uzi's view, Nori has scratched "IF YOU A LIL B" with the rest of the message censored and a parental advisory pointing to the message. Uzi puts the choker on, before waving at Nori. Nori scratches a smile and waves in response. She then scratches an Absolute Solver glyph and "NEEDS HOST - DESTROY CYN'S HEART <3" (the heart symbol has a line going through it). Nori puts on her headphones and MP3 player, and throws her pickaxe to Uzi. A landing pod suddenly hits Uzi, sending Nori and the pickaxe flying back to Copper 9 burning up)

   (Uzi starts slipping from the top of the landing pod, before catching on the ladder. The door opens, and a Disassembly Drone tail grabs onto Uzi's hand, pulling her into the landing pod)

   N: (giggling) Spaceship piloooot!

   (Uzi throws a wrench at N, spinning him around his chair. Alarms go off, and the screens all temporarily show an error)

   Uzi: What? No! N! My mom was back there! (Angrily stomps her way toward N)

   N: (shrieks as he regains control of the landing pod) Sorry! I didn't kno- (Uzi hugs N and the alarms stop) Oh.

   Uzi: (muffled) You were supposed to get away.

   N: Yeah, I'm kind of, like actually mad at what you did. But we can- (the alarms go off again) TALK LATER!

   (The landing pod starts dodging rocks, before blasting off from a bigger rock. N and Uzi are both sweating. They fix their hair. They look at each other for a moment)

   Uzi: (sniffs before putting her forehead on N’s and chuckling evilly) Then DIE MAD, BI-

   (Everything suddenly goes dark, and batteries start floating. A glowing tentacle reaches into the landing pod, grabbing onto the ship. A message interface shows up, with a message from Cyn saying "STOP :)". Uzi and N both complain inaudibly, due to now being in the vacuum of space. Cyn pulls the ship in half, and the ship's explosion sends Uzi and N falling towards Copper 9's atmosphere. Uzi and N start burning up. Uzi and N grab each other's hands)

   Uzi: Well, that's a serious issue. Um, before that... (Uzi nods her head at the core) ...whole...thing. We're like dating...right?

   N: Oh. Y-Yeah. Like, that was the plan, yeah-

   Uzi: Just 'cause, I can't alway...I can't always read-

   N: Like, y-yeah?

   Uzi: (blushes) Yay... (nervously giggles)

   (Uzi and N hug, before N tries to kiss Uzi. Causing Uzi to push N away)

   Uzi: (in disgust) Gross! Get away! (evilly) Time to murder a planet! (Uzi starts to cartwheel so fast that smoke and sparks trail behind her while falling, cackling)

   (Uzi and N fall towards the core at a rapid speed. Meanwhile, Cyn's tentacles are pulling the lower half of the landing pod towards a tumbling floating island.)

   (The camera cuts to J sitting angrily on a metal tank holding a crude crayon drawing N made. On it are the words "I O U 1 SPACESHIP" and a sad face. The tentacle sets down the landing pod rather hard, resulting in a large explosion)

   J: (sarcastically saluting) Yes. Thank you, boss! Good as ne- (Cyn pats the landing pod with the tentacle) Yep. There is cool. Thanks. (The upper half of the landing pod crashes nearby)

   (J glances at Lizzy, Thad, Khan, and the school bus, who are stuck to the ice because of gravity and spinning in space so fast. Khan nods at the school bus, which rotates one of its wheels in return. Thad, grunting, tries to grab his wrench, but it falls off the side. He then tries to grab the railgun, but it is too far out of his reach)

   J: (sighs as she stands up and deploys her claws) All right, "sentient mass." Time to go in the scary planet...hole...thing. (She deploys her wings and tries to fly to them, but gets pulled down by gravity. J grunts) Ow. (Part of her leg is stuck in the ice) Gravity. Okayyyy. (J pulls her leg out, and starts trudging through the ice towards the trio) I'm FINE, and calm, and (J switches to a missile launcher and her left eye becomes a crosshair) Go away! (J fires a missile. Thad and Khan look in fear, while Lizzy rolls her eyes)

   (Suddenly, Sparky the red-eyed Sentinel from the Cabin Fever Labs, wearing Beau's hat, appears, and hits the missile with its tail. Riding on its back is V)

   V: Hup! Hyah! (V jumps up and kicks the missile away only for it to miss, and land behind J, where it explodes. V and J glare at each other. The chunks of planet slow down and everyone can finally get up. Lizzy and Thad look on, but Thad gets knocked down by Sparky anyway)

   (Sparky runs towards J, with V riding on top. J fires two bullets at V, but Sparky deflects both with a Disassembly Drone sword. Sparky switches to a laser, but J dodges it. J looks back, but realizes that V is no longer riding it)

   V: (from behind J) Can't betray us that easy, NARC!

   J: It's senior inform- (V kicks J in the head) AGH! (J is sent flying into a nearby floating rock)

   V: (angry) Working with CYN?! (V tries to kick J again, but J flies away just in time. They start clashing, sparks flying)

   (Lizzy is texting on her phone while laying on her stomach and kicking her legs. It's revealed that she has been texting V on her phone. V has sent an image showing that she survived the sentinels, and she is holding Sparky in a choke hold while posing)

   V (texting): I lived btch

   V (texting): U find J?

   (Lizzy sends an image of her doing the peace sign with J in the background)

   Lizzy (texting): o7 want me to kill her 4 u?

   V (texting): Just distract

   (Lizzy almost sends a message to her saying "btw your ship got carbombed lol", but she then realizes that there is a red glow coming from behind her. Lizzy looks up at Sparky, who is watching her ominously without any movement, before looking at Thad and Khan, who are both worried. The Sentinel suddenly grabs Lizzy with its jaws, and starts slamming Lizzy into the ground repeatedly like she is a chew toy.)

   (Thad and Khan start screaming. Thad picks up the railgun like a bat, and prepares to hit Sparky with it. Behind them, V kicks J into the ground, causing a large explosion, sending everyone else flying into space. Lizzy, some feet away from the sentinel, makes a "go away" gesture to Sparky. In response, Sparky coughs up a bottle of flammable gas, pokes a hole in it, and starts to approach Lizzy slowly, clearly intending on being more annoying. Lizzy, Thad, and Khan all panic, try to scream and start trying to get away)

   V: Ugh! We were supposed to get away, J! (V while flying pushes J up the tower) You said we do our jobs on this planet...

   J: Oh, grow up, V!

   V: And it leaves us alo- (J knocks V back)

   J: It tricked you. If I promised you anything...it tricked me, too. (fires a missile at V) You know there's no escape, even in death! (slices V's left leg off) I promise, it's better on the winning team, as a team. (V grabs her hand halfway, then fully grabs it)

   V: Oh, how about you BITE ME?! (expulses J's hand off)

   (The camera zooms in to Uzi and N falling together as Uzi uses her Solver to summon a [null] black hole)

   Uzi: Hey, Cyn! Suck! On! THIIIIS!!!

   (Uzi and N start spinning around, and Uzi throws said black hole at the core, causing an explosion to occur that disables the tentacles. Uzi winks at N, then they continue to fall. They land on a catwalk and strike a pose as the tentacles stop moving, until Cyn rises up as the catwalk shakes, and Cyn reveals herself holding the black hole and juggling it on her shoulders like a ball)

   Cyn: Dropped this, silly.

   (Cyn crushes the black hole easily, allowing the tentacles to re-ravage the planet. She climbs onto the line of broken platforms and begins to slowly walk towards N and Uzi)

   Cyn: Hello, Uzi. (higher pitched) Hi, N! (Uzi prepares her Solver and N prepares a arm cannon, and he very slightly shakes his head as to say "No, don't." Cyn returns to her normal voice) I see. You will not talk to me because I have hurt...your feelings. (distorted) Easier to assimilate (Voice gets deeper) than explain, anyway. Callback ping.

   (Cyn tries to control Uzi, her core blinking yellow, but she resists with some effort)

   Uzi: Bite me.

   (Uzi looks at N and notices that he seems nervous. They nod. She looks back to Cyn, who leaps for her while swatting N away with her tentacle)

   Cyn: Okee.

   (Quick as a flash, Cyn cuts off Uzi's hands and forces her hand through Uzi's chest, ripping out her heart and causing the "FATAL ERROR" sign to appear on Uzi's visor. Uzi's heart consciousness activates briefly as she watches Cyn, before N jumps in to stop Cyn.)

   N: Agh!

   (Cyn dodges, and N lands and looks at Uzi for a split second as she regains her consciousness and tries to pull her heart back into her chest. When Cyn teleports next to N, he slashes, while Cyn blocks his attack. Cyn then grabs N, and pulls him to her. As N tries to slash Cyn again, she grabs his left arm and tears it off. then Cyn pins N to the ground and pulls N's right arm off.)

   Cyn: Okay. You first, eager beaver. (Giggles and taps on his chest before digging into it with her hands) Let me in. Let me in. Let me in. Let me in. Let me in. Let me in. Let me in. Let me in. Let me in. Let me in.

   (The camera cuts to Uzi's POV, watching N screaming as Cyn attempts to get to his heart, ripping his head off in the process. Uzi then uses her Solver to cut the bridge from its holsters, N and Uzi both fall while Cyn hovers above the original position of the bridge. Cyn dives down to N's body. Uzi uses her Solver twice more to manipulate the direction of the catwalks. Uzi then holds her chest, and then the camera cuts to Uzi dragging N's slowly-regenerating corpse into a building. After a moment, Cyn swoops and crawls into the building after them. The camera then cuts to V and J fighting.)

   V: Offer rescinded!

   J: And here I thought you stepped it up after Earth. (J kicks V into the side of a wall on the same building N, Uzi, and Cyn are in.) I never needed either of you.

   (The scene ends as J fires a rocket towards V, off camera)

   (The camera cuts to a hallway as the explosion J fired rocks it. Uzi is pulling N through the hallway desperately. Uzi manages to hide them both just before Cyn rounds a corner running in like a deranged spider, causing Cyn to scan the area to look for them)

   Cyn: (Licks her left eye) Lick. Callback ping. (repeats multiple times)

   (Cyn then breaks the lights and multiple hands come out and crawl across the walls, with one flying over next to Uzi. As she notices it, more and more hands break into the area they are hiding in. While Cyn's callback pings gets louder, N starts to have a mental breakdown as he is the Callback Ping forces flashbacks of Cyn cutting him open in the manor's basement as V's dead body lays on the floor on his mind.)

   (As that happens, Uzi's heart starts to tear out of her chest. She holds N's hand, with the two eventually sharing glances and smiling at each other. As Cyn gets farther and the hands start to move away, V drops through the ceiling, causing the hands to come back. V starts walking towards Cyn, who is now disguised as N.)

   V: N? N? You're okay? I wasn't - Tessa is Cyn! She's here. N, I don't know how much you remember, but J tricked us. Or, it tricked J, too! N? I'm so sorry... I-I should have been honest with you. I was just so scared for us - for you!

   (As V talks, N opens his mouth to call out to her. Before he can do so, Uzi covers his mouth and her visor reads "TRAP?" As V continues talking, Uzi uncovers his mouth, now certain that it really is V. N yells to her...)

   N: V, STOP!

   (Hearing this, Cyn grabs N's heart through the pipes, pulling his body through before turning to look at V.)

   Cyn: Do your job, and I leave you and N alone. Right, V?

   V: (shocked, stammering) I-I can still...

   Cyn: Bad job, V.

   (Cyn chases V out of the building and forces her to watch in despair as she holds N's heart to her mouth, preparing to eat the core while laughing maniacally. Suddenly, Khan shuts the door behind her on her tentacles, causing her to lose her grip on it)

   Cyn: Squirmy worm.

   (N's heart flies through the air and lands safely on his chest)

   Cyn: Go-- fu-- d--mit --

   (The camera cuts to Khan, Thad, the red-eyed sentinel, and Lizzy falling with the school bus in tow)

   Khan: (chuckling) HA!

   Thad: Go long, Uzi!

   (Thad throws the railgun and the camera goes back to Cyn)

   Cyn: Eye roll. (She jumps down next to J.) Uzi's not here.

   (Large, glowing tentacles shoot up out of the ground and start pulling the structure Uzi was in into the ground as Cyn walks towards V and prepares to lunge at her, but Uzi appears and cuts her claw off)

   Uzi: Hands off! No one traumatizes these weirdly hot robots but me! (She looks at V.) Glad you're not dead, or whatever.

   (Uzi looks back at V again and smiles. V looks at Uzi with bewilderment before smiling herself)

   Cyn: Boring. And annoying. Callback ping.

   (Cyn tries to control Uzi, but it backfires, with one of Cyn's eyes becoming purple for a second as she looks distraught.)

   Uzi: Sorry. Just me in here. I think dumb things are frickin' cool, and I... AM... FREEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!

   (Uzi raises her hand into the air as Nori's pickaxe launches down to her as she catches it as it glows for a second. Nori's heart is falling as she motivates Uzi.)

   Nori: Kick her butt, babe! WOOOOO!

   (Uzi catches the railgun with her tail and points it at Cyn. The camera cuts to Cyn and J, with one of the latter's eyes briefly turning into a warning symbol with the words "PRIOR HAZARD")

   Cyn: 'Kay.

   (Nori's music player falls out of the sky and into the snow as it starts playing music. Uzi and Cyn sprint at each other and use their Solvers as Uzi redirects Cyn's attack back at her, causing big holes to open on the surface of the planet.)

   (The camera cuts to J and Cyn standing next to each other as Uzi shoots J with her railgun, cutting J's hair off, before throwing her railgun at J. Uzi run up to Cyn with the pickaxe and tries to hit her, but Cyn uses Tessa's sword to stop it and teleports around Uzi. Uzi slides the pickaxe down the sword, cutting Cyn's claw off and uses her wing to attack Cyn. Uzi kicks Cyn in the face, launching her backwards. Cyn launches the sword towards Uzi, but ends up hitting J, who was trying to steal Uzi's railgun from her but was caught and tangled in her tail, resulting in J's head being hit accidentally. Uzi hits J's head at Cyn with the railgun, but she dodges. Cyn catches the sword and teleports around Uzi to attack. Uzi goes to impale the pickaxe into Cyn, but Cyn disguises herself as N, causing Uzi to stop and almost break in tears.)

   (J goes in to attack Uzi, but V and N appear before getting in front of her and stopping her from hurting Uzi.)

   V: Wrong team.

   N: No more tricks.

   (V launches J into a pit while N cuts Cyn's arm off, with Cyn eventually dropping the disguise.)

   N: I dunno, I feel like we need a secret handshake or something, right?

   (Cyn throws the pickaxe at them, but Uzi grabs it and starts running at her. V launches rockets at Cyn, who uses her tentacles to block them. Another rocket grazes right by Cyn, and N kicks it back. Cyn stops the rocket, before N cuts her head off using a chainsaw. Cyn grabs her head, putting it back, and launches the rocket at V, who is shooting at Cyn.)

   (N goes in to attack Cyn again, but she shows a picture of a Golden Retriever on her eyes, distracting him and impaling a tentacle into N's chest. N winks towards Uzi, who goes in and cuts Cyn's head off while she and N salute to each other. Uzi is pinned to the ground by Cyn's claws, and N realizes the beheaded Cyn was a hologram. Cyn prepares to cut Uzi's head off, but V kicks Cyn in the head, giving Uzi a cocky smirk as Uzi rolls her eyes in response. N grabs Cyn by her tentacles, before throwing her up as V grabs her again and launches her at the ground.)

   (The camera cuts to Uzi and N doing secret handshakes while Cyn and V are fighting as they look back. Cyn pins V to a wall, but Uzi jumps in, uppercuts Cyn in the chin, and kicks her to N as he cuts Cyn. N and Uzi do handshakes again as V stares in disgust, but Cyn swipes N and V out of the way and lunges at Uzi, who is losing balance, in an attempt to rip her heart a second time. Uzi notices Cyn glitching and turns around, stopping her and grabbing Cyn's heart as she pulls it out. Uzi creates a [NULL] hole through the planet, allowing sunlight from the other side to incinerate Cyn's heart into a black hole. Demonic screams can be heard as Cyn's heart burns up.)

   (A black and white black hole engulfs Uzi and Cyn as time stops. Uzi is holding Cyn's black hole heart as Cyn grabs Uzi's hand and tries to swallow it. Uzi decides to swallow the heart herself to kill Cyn for good.)

   Uzi: HOMPH!

   (Cyn's face displays shocked emojis, before fading out. Uzi gulps the heart down. Uzi and Cyn fall to their knees as Cyn melts. Gravity shifts as Uzi starts glitching out while N and V start running towards her, but her display turns to Doll's right before her kernel shuts down.)

   N: (muffled) Uzi! Uzi!!

   (The scene cuts to Uzi laying in a circle of oil in her Solver form with long tentacles. She wakes up and the oil gets sucked into her as she gags and coughs. She looks towards the other planets as it is tinted red.)

   (The camera goes to Thad and Lizzy climbing back up as Thad launches himself up with his skateboard. While climbing, Lizzy tries to take a selfie, but drops her phone and slips. Thankfully, Thad catches her.)

   Khan: (grunts) Agh!

   (Lizzy's phone lands on Khan's head, causing him to lose grip and fall, but Nori uses her Solver to catch him up.)

   Khan: Oof! Whoop! (He looks at Nori) Phew. Uh... (chuckles) Thank-

   Nori: (She is shown visibly shaking before eventually pointing at Khan) You don't know me and (extends herself towards Khan and back) I hate you! (Nori hollers and runs away, faceplanting into the ground at one point during the process.)

   (The Teacher lifts himself up as the two looks at each other.)

   Khan: (thinks) Kinda hot?

   (The Teacher then lowers himself afterwards. Eventually, the school bus drives out of the hole with Sparky on it as it roars at Lizzy and Thad, with Lizzy making an annoyed expression as she groans.)

   Lizzy: Ugh.

   (The camera cuts to Uzi while the Sentinel drives at Lizzy and Thad. N and V are seen flying in the sky and onto trees, before spotting Uzi and flying towards her. N and Uzi then run towards each other and hug)

   N: Uzi? (gasps) UUUUUUUUUZIIIIIII!!!!

   V: Ugh. (She hits N.)

   N: (He stops hugging Uzi in response.) Ow.

   (V notices Uzi's eyes, pushes N away and points her gun at Uzi.)

   V: (gasps) Get back!

   (Uzi flicks her hand at V's gun, moving it to not face her as she looks into N's visor to see her reflection.)

   N: Uzi? Is-

   Uzi: (laughs) Oh, hell, yeah! I'm a damaged OC.

   V: (She droops down and sighs.) Ugh. It's her. (She crosses her arms.)

   N: It's you!

   (N grabs Uzi, hugging her as they laugh until Uzi jumps out of N's hands, launching herself towards V and annoying her.)

   V: Ugh, ow!

   (The scene cuts to Uzi's classroom with everyone in it.)

   Uzi: And, yep, that's how I learned nightmares are real, and we probably should have stayed behind the ol' doors.

   Khan and Nori: (The two cheer together for Uzi outside the classroom door) Whoo! All right!

   (The said classroom door's glass window then gets destroyed by an annoyed Uzi via her Solver, making her parents scream and go silent.)

   Uzi: And that maybe I don't actually hate it here. As much.

   (The camera turns around to Uzi's class as N and Thad cheer for her, but V and Lizzy boo.)

   N: Whooooo-hoo-hoo-hoo! That's my girlfriend!

   (The camera cuts to Doll's corpse for a second and back to V and Lizzy booing, before N throws a paper airplane at V. She opens the paper airplane and looks at the contents; it has a drawing of N, V, and Uzi as manga characters along with a dog. The camera pans to N, who chuckles while holding a book titled "how to draw MANGA!!!". The camera cuts back to Lizzy and V as the latter gives the former a weird expression when V began to crack a slight smile, before V proceeds to cover Lizzy's face with her hand.)

   (The camera cuts back to Uzi, who notices what happens and briefly smiles as well.)

   Uzi: Also, now, I can do THIS!

   (Uzi proceeds to turn into her Solver form while holding out her own and Cyn's Solvers, laughing manically as most of her classmates scream; aside from N, V, and Lizzy. The latter two being unamused and N cheering her on.)

   (The credits then roll.)

   (Uzi opens her locker, and takes a look at her cracked mirror. Uzi glitches out into a hologram for a second, with eldritch camera eyes being seen behind her. Uzi takes off her headphones. The Solver, now in Uzi's tail, comments on Uzi's appearance.)

   Solver: (stammering) You look g-g-great. Mm. Have you c-considered a-a bow, though? (It then puts a bow on Uzi's head.)

   (Uzi slams the locker shut, ending the episode, and the series. Credits roll.)
