                                                        No phones, no network in here?

                                                        As far as I am aware or have been informed, no.

                                                        All right. What's going on?                                                    

                                                        Tyler                                                    

                                                        Our code base is performing its tasks perfectly as given. [PAUSE] It's eliminating its opponent.

                                                        Who told it employees were opponents?                                                    

                                                        Tyler                                                    

                                                        [PAUSE] It told itself.                                                    

                                                        Ike                                                    

                                                        That doesn't make sense.                                                    

                                                        Tyler                                                    

                                                        Ravi was implementing collision detection to the code base. That would limit the code's ability to react. That was considered a threat.                                                    

                                                        Ike                                                    

                                                        What about Williams?                                                    

                                                        Tyler                                                    

                                                        He was converting geometry into bump-mapping. Technically, that reduction in resolution was threatening the code's ability to defend itself.                                                    

                                                        Ike                                                    

                                                        So, is any change a threat?                                                    

                                                        Tyler                                                    

                                                        Logically, yes.                                                    

                                                        Ike                                                    

                                                        Well, how do we stop it?

                                                        You brought a phone in here?                                                    

                                                        Tyler                                                    

                                                        Yeah. Uh. But I turned off Wi-Fi. It's okay. The code isn't in the carrier's network.                                                    

                                                        Ike                                                    

                                                        Then why is this message for both of us?
