Break the Ice Part 2

Well that was. [Han...] You all did really well yesterday.

[She didn't participate but of course, she was watching! ...probably on her phone. But today she's here to assist! Which means there's probably some other stupid activity ready to be thrown your way.]

Today we have a different kind of bonding activity for you! The name of today's game is--! Two lies and a truth. Today you're going to test how well you know each other-- and maybe learn a lot more!

[And for those who may not know the rules--]

You're going to give someone a list of two things that are not true about you-- and one that is. And based on what they know about you and their impressions of you, they're going to do their best to find the truth. When it's all done, you'll tell them whether they're right or not and if they got it wrong-- you'll tell them the truth!

No. I am a machine - I'm replaceable.

[swordsinternally]

I think... that's wrong. Even if you are a machine and someone replaces you, I don't think it would be the same. Not to most people, I'd like to think.

[preconstruction]

My replacement would look like me and my my memories. It would be seamless.

[swordsinternally]

But that doesn't change that your body got destroyed. It still... hurts the people around you, and I think that's important.

[preconstruction]

I'm just a machine, I wouldn't ...

[ would it hurt the people around him if he died? he'd never considered that. ]

[swordsinternally]

Other people might not think that way, though.

[preconstruction]

I don't know. This isn't the way it is at home. In Detroit, no one would treat me as if I were human the way everyone here does.

[swordsinternally]

Maybe you were just around the wrong kind of people.

[preconstruction]

[ he shakes his head. ]

That's how everyone is.

[swordsinternally]

Then... I think that everyone needs to change.

[preconstruction]

It's alright. I'm just a machine, it's not -- it's not something that needs to change.

[swordsinternally]

I don't know about that. I think... even if you're a machine, it doesn't give people the right to act horrible towards them without a reason.

[preconstruction]

I'm not alive, though. Not in the way humans are. I just seem like I am.
