2x01: Infected
Gonna start calling him Fawng now. >_>
Anyway, a file is on the way into Mainframe. Cool. An upgrade.
The upgrade is a small cylinder. Bob expected more.
On they go into the core with the upgrade. Cecil wants legs from the upgrade, lol.
Fawng tells everyone to prepare for "power down and upgrade". Bob hits the button. Powerdown completed, they open up the upgrade. Inside is MEGABYTE holy bald. He zaps Fawn and catches the lid of the upgrade when Bob throws it at him. He starts choking Fawng.
MB copies Fawng's ROM, takes the access codes and heads for Core Control. Dot comes to and tries to warn everyone.
The distress signal is barely discernible and a curfew is issued.
MB begins his villainous monologue but Bob cuts it off by kicking MB out of the way. He dodges MB again and MB goes for Dot and Fawng, so Bob throws an energy field in the way. MB bounces off the field and hits "glitch lampost" lmao.
Then glitch runs out of battery and Bob runs away.
Fawng tells Dot to run and leave him! Did Fawng die?! The f***? Bob runs back and pulls Dot into a portal that allows him to leave the core. MB is annoyed they managed to get out, but initiates an erase command anyway. Everyone begins to panic
MB uses the electromagnetic...disk things from Fawng's favourite game to chase down Bob and Dot. Bob uses Dot's charger to charge glitch and create an energy field.
At the diner, Enzo and everyone is disappearing and tells Cecil to keep energy shakes coming in order to keep their levels up.
Back in the core, Hex appears on screen. She asks if MB will erase her, and MB says that's no way to treat "family"...hmm. Hex says "let's discuss the deal." oooh! HEX/MB ALLIANCE. YAY HEX.
Mainframe is now collapsing. Holy crap.
MB promises Hex 50/50 control...yeah, I don't believe you. Dot finds the armory and Bob finds a charging module for glitch. I guess Dot's organizer only gave it a small amount of charge.
Fawng appears as a hologram, telling Bob to use Megabyte's "greed". Meanwhile, everyone in the diner is fading away. MB appears in video and taunts Enzo, but Dot appears piloting a HUGE F***ING ROBOT or "exoskeleton suit" as MB calls it. She punts MB all over the room, towards a huge, Return of the Jedi-like shaft. But as she goes to crush him with the exoskeleton, MB throws her off! She latches onto the ledge, and Bob appears just before MB sends her to her doom. He suspends her in mid-air and Dot recovers.
"Bob, I got him, reverse the program!"
"Ah, but WHO has WHOM, Miss Matrix?"
...MB then INFECTS THE EXOSKELETON and controls Dot. He says he wants a portal to the Supercomputer and begins to crush Bob's head, so Bob agrees to create one.
A portal room descends and MB enters. Bob uses glitch to put a lock on the door! MB is trapped...and then says this is actually where the Principal Office breaks down viruses!
MB begins to break down, but quickly uses his power to rig a self-destruct program. Bob has no choice but to eject Megabyte out of the core. MB lives on but Mainframe survives. A new file comes in.
Rating: 8.5/10
Megabyte got serious. More serious, I mean.
