[That is one surly looking alien sitting on a piano bench, a guitar -- just holding it. Not plucking, not strumming, not even tuning. Just holding it.]

Albert Wily is missing.

From what I can gather he's been missing since before the incident in the corridors.

So -- how many is that now? So much for our vaunted security -- official or otherwise -- or the people who pretend like they're authority here-- How many have to vanish before any of us do anything?

Useless. All your talk of organization, of safety -- and not a one of us are safe -- and we don't even know if it's one of us -- or one of them.

[Her eyes flicker, and she smirks, just a little.]
 
It is something you should consider, Megamind. [Both sentience, and that its gone mad.]

I said I didn't want to consider, not that I hadn't. The idea that we're living in the bell of a mad juggernaut hurtling through space isn't ideal.

I'm sorry. I misunderstood.

Where I come from, sentient machines are commonplace, as are...intelligent ships. [To a DEGREE anyway. The raiders were more like pets than anything else.]

I see. Do you work in partnership with those? These intelligent items? [Says the guy with a talking fish.]

[There is OBVIOUS HESITATION here. How much does she tell him? She can't trust him not to go blathering on to other people that she's a Cylon.]

I'm familiar with them.

Do they go crazy where you're from? Do you get them a robot shrink? What do you do?

[She scowls.]

They don't go crazy. There are -- defective models, at times, but that's...

[Another hesitation.]

If a model is defective, it's generally determined by a consensus. And -- sometimes subjective.

Did you work with these items directly, or re they merely something in your universe?

You're very curious, Megamind. I like that about you.
