Midterm Exam

Midterm Exam.

[ Once again, the exam begins with the desks arranged in a perfect circle; one desk for each person that's participating in the program. There are nameplates for everyone, and they have been bolted to each of the desks, facing the inside of the circle...

...including the deceased. Their chairs have been placed on top of their desks, signifying that they will not be needed. Above of their desks are holograms of their portraits from their profiles, grayed out and bloodstained.

Today Han and Vivienne both are at the front of the classroom, but it's Vivienne that finally speaks up. ]


Today is your Midterm exam. Having successfully passed the halfway mark for the semester, today's proceedings will be a little bit different.

You are responsible for finding the culprits responsible for the deaths of Doris and Hank Anderson. You will have several hours to discuss the evidence and your decision. Know that there are two people among these here that bear the responsibility for these events. You will be asked to vote for each. The two with the highest number of votes will receive their punishment.

...Your midterm exam begins now.

Victims.






Suspects.



[ The physical evidence tray sits in the middle of the circle of desks; you all have the Evidence app on your tablets to access photo evidence. ]

Hasn't he gotten fixed? I don't know precisely what happened last Monday, but...

[unhalting]

Yeah, there was somethin' about him getting shut down. Wouldn't hurt to have more details on that, actually.

[ Coldly, glaring at Vivienne: ]

Why not ask our benevolent administrator? I'm sure she'd be willing to shed light, on the things she's done.

[preconstruction]

Vivienne initiated a shutdown procedure, but she did not break my body.

[ he looks over at her. there may still be some unresolved things between them. ]

Because my body was undamaged, Hank was able to restart me. That is not the case back home.

...there was an event last week in which Connor, on everyone's behalf, intended to destroy the works in my laboratory. I tried to stop him, but I was unsuccessful. When he pulled a taser on me, I shut him off to avoid any further conflict because of the rules...

[Yet in reciting it, despite the attempts to sound impartial-- she sounds full of regret.]

I don't see how it's related though. I was the one unable to resolve that issue.

[unhalting]

It's not a matter of you bein' involved, it's a matter of how he'd see the motive if he knew he'd be fixed afterwards.

[But Connor also explained the other circumstances so. Woo]

But thanks for answering.

[preconstruction]

It wasn’t on behalf of anyone but me.
