Test Pilota Pirxa Page #5

---

Commander, you're trying to make our job as difficult as possible.

Of course! To make mine easier.

You need to realise that it's not just to trick you...

that we started a multi-billion dollar production.

It was us who put the brains in the heads.

If I'm not mistaken, it was nature.

OK then, we were second. But the details are secret.

And is everything else a secret?

What do you mean?

Are they capable of lying?

Can they lose control?

Yes, anything's possible.

But less likely to happen

than if humans were in the same situation.

How can you be so certain?

How amusing! We've performed experiments.

And the humans were laboratory rats?

Of course.

- Even if they could result in death?!

- Exactly.

Interesting.

And the results?

Humans are less reliable.

Poor, poor humans.

And what would happen if...

...I tried to bash their heads in?

He would defend himself.

- Until I'm dead!

- No, he would limit himself to defense.

And what if attack is the only means of defence?

Then he will attack you.

Give me the contract. I agree.

Here you are. Good luck.

You can tell your superiors

I will try to squeeze the worst out of them.

Commander?

You're a brave man, But, for your own sake...

...I advise caution.

So I won't be finished off by the robots?

Not robots - it's the humans who will fail first.

Your plain old Joes. Do you understand?

And robots? What do you really want from them?

They're specialists. They'll do anything for you.

I'll get them to do even more.

One whisky, please.

Whisky?

Here you are.

Tonic water, please.

- Telephone for you.

- Thank you.

Hello?

Pirx here. Well?

Have you decided?

I haven't had much time.

All I can say is, all things considered...

've come to the conclusion that there is a 90% chance...

...or even 99%, that God doesn't exist.

So there is a 1% chance that he exists.

That God exists?

Good. You can come on board with the others.

- See you soon.

- Goodbye.

- What do you drink?

- Gin and tonic.

- It's time to say goodbye.

- Goodbye, Director.

- Ah, one more thing ...

I need to let you know in advance,

that all your commands will be registered.

A black box?

Yes. It will survive in the event of a crash.

Then we could use it, instead of testimonies.

The countdown has started. I should go.

I wish you the best of luck.

We've done all we had to.

The rest is up to Pirx.

There's one thing that bothers me.

Pirx decided to fly because he miraculously avoided being killed.

Do you think our part of the crew could rebel? That's nonsense.

I don't know... I don't know.

If it came to that, God help Pirx and the human crew.

Get ready for docking procedure.

Start the engines.
