Virtuosity Page #2

Synopsis: The Law Enforcement Technology Advancement Centre (LETAC) has developed SID version 6.7: a Sadistic, Intelligent, and Dangerous virtual reality entity which is synthesized from the personalities of more than 150 serial killers. LETAC would like to train police officers by putting them in VR with SID, but they must prove the concept by using prisoners as test subjects. One such prisoner is ex-cop Parker Barnes. When SID manages to inject his personality into a nano-machine android, it appears that Barnes might be the only one who can stop him.

Yes. The Three Stooges... Every time|Wile E. Coyote got crushed, I...

Parker, if you don't want me|to help you, just let me know.

I knew why I was at LETAC yesterday,|but why were you there?

- You're an intriguing subject.|- Intriguing? Can I write that down?

Sure.

I was doing research for a book.

I'm a criminal psychologist.|I occasionally consult for them.

How did you know Sid 6.7 would be|in the Japanese restaurant?

Colon...parenthesis.

Smiley faces. People used to sign off|their e-mail with that.

The programmer always gives you|a clue as a game.

People don't usually die in games.

Depends upon your idea of fun,|doesn't it?

We need to talk about Matthew Grimes.

This one's for you.

He provoked you. He killed your family.|He took your arm.

- If we can prove that what you did...|- What?

Temporary insanity, isn't it?

- Just that it won't ever happen again.|- It won't ever happen again.

It can't happen again.

You see, my wife|and my daughter are dead.

Pawn to position three. Castle.

Rook to pawn four.

Queen to bishop seven.

Knight to rook two.

Queen to bishop two.

Pawn to bishop fiive.

Hi, Clyde. What are you waiting for?

I want you to come inside, Clyde.

I'm so tired of playing alone.

Oh, man. Oh, man. She just|keeps getting better and better.

- She's interactive, Clyde.|- "Very interactive."

Sheila 3.2 is collecting information|from 136 aspects of your physiology.

Your heart rate, pupil dilation,|vocal intonation, syntax...

- Any detectable tumescence.|- "Oh, yeah..."

Hey, man, let me use your gear|for a little while.

I want you, Clyde.

Queen to knight seven.

I want you inside here with me now.

Come on...

- "Program terminated."|- I have a more productive idea.

You've been trying to|incubate a nano-tech android.

Mr Wallace thinks that my software|is the solution to your problems.

May I suggest we begin|by incubating Sheila 3.2?

Brilliant. Genius.|Grab her module and follow me.

Enacting Sid 6.7.

Sid!

Reilly's right. She's one of your...|finest compositions.

- Nice.|- "Yes..."

Tight cords.

- Do you like this, Sheila?|- "You know I do."

- Do you like this, Daryl?|- "Come on."

Module out.

Was I bad?

- "Are you gonna punish me?"|- Be quiet, Sheila.

Why don't youjust kill me?

Module out.

If they want to destroy you, Sid,|let them try it in the real world.

Are there any limits to|Sheila 3.2's interactivity?

With me she's become|quite an expert chess player.

With you...well.

Get that f***ing thing away from me,|you stupid idiot!

Come here. Check this out.|Did he scare you, Elizabeth?

Yes...

Watching your people in VR auto-reset|gave me this idea. Put them on.

Millions of nano-machines are|suspended in chlodial solution.
