001 [Audio then Video] [Originating from Solian Temple]
Oi! What's going on here!?
[Well, someone's not entirely happy today, are they? Then again, if you were just running with your buddies and suddenly found yourself waking up in front of a shrine, you'd be a little intrigued about it. Enough to half-heartedly listen to the robed beings explain the situation to you. He wasn't sure if he believed them, either. It's not like he'd met them before, and no one was able to vouch for them. Really, what did he care about them?]
Deckerd! Duke! Are you there?
[They're the ones he was with last, after all.]
Anyone?? I'm by some weird shrine and these creeps came up to me and gave me this--
[Suddenly, it switches to video, showing a very confused Power Joe.]
THIS THING.
[Glad to see you're adjusting well, PJ.]

Hey, I can take care of myself!
[Video]
Oh waitALSO WHY ARE WE YELLING?]
I can hear you.
[Video]
Sorry. I'm just a bit out of sorts, yeah?
[Video]
How much did you get out of the acolytes?
[Video]
Let's see. I'm aligned to someone called Solus. And I got this mark on my arm.
[He rubs the back of his neck, in thought.]
We're stuck here, and something about helping 'build'? At least I'm built for that.
[Video]
You were built for what?
[Video]
Yeah, I was built for construction work.
[And fighting.]
[Video]
Built by who?
[Video]
[Why is that so odd?]
Weren't you?
[Video]
[Red flags start popping up. There's only one group of people Arcee knows about that were able to make a working bootleg Cybertronian.
She doesn't like them.
This would explain all the mistakes he's been making...]
[Video]
But then how--
[This doesn't make sense...You're almost just like him, you're pretty much a sleeker BP.]
[Video]
[So she can step on them.]
Re: [Video]
My name's Power Joe. I'm part of the Brave Police of Japan.
[Video]
Since when did Japan have that kind of tech?
[Video]
Well we were just average robots at first. But then we obtained Super A.I.
From our Boss.
[Video]
Do you really expect me to believe any of this?
[Video]
If I wanted to lie, I'd say I was whatever you are!
[Video]
[She stops, actually taking in what he just said. Which really says something in itself because she really wanted to be snarky right there.]
Okay, let's say you were built by humans. So everything about you... it's just an A.I., right?
[Video]
Originally. But something happened that caused us to gain Super A.I. Basically, we have emotions and can make decisions.
[Video]
[Video]
We realize we have no hearts, if that's what you mean. We're not 'alive'.
[Video]
[It's pretty much like talking to a toy.
...I'm really sorry, PJ, you have no idea. She just doesn't understand.]
[Video]
[He's getting a bit defensive here...]
[Video]
[Video]
You think we aren't 'people'. That we can't think for ourselves.
