[ BEGINNING OPERATION NOW. ]
...NOT. A program destroyer. Maybe. Uh.
"Helps with many operations." ...Why would we... NEED that?
W-
AHHHHH!!!!
[Darnold LUNGES her hand forward, pressing it against the program's surface, and...]

[BEGINNING OPERATION NOW.]
[WHAT ARE Y-]

What was that?
[ THE ASKBOX HAS BEEN OPENED. ]
…so, what happens when you miss your mark?

[ . . . ]
[ ESTIMATED TIME REMAINING: 07:00:00:00 ]
Okay well that's a thing I was not aware of. Okay. Okay. I can figure out a little solution to this.
Maybe if I... hm... well, if it will feed my appetite, I'll take the time.
A little disguise never hurt nobody.
[ OPERATION RESCHEDULED FOR JANUARY 6TH. ]
So there's a new program? How come I've never heard about this? Countless of years, countless, but I've never seen it run... or even be installed, for that matter! Does that mean... are they back, programming more AI, or...
[ ESTIMATED TIME REMAINING: 00:06:00 ]
No, no, that's not a sound theory... I mean, when would they ever come here, unseen, and put something here? No, I need to start over. So. Unknown file, unknown program, unknown everything. So how did...
[ ESTIMATED TIME REMAINING: 00:05:00 ]
...what? Hey, hey, no, what's the countdown for? HEY!
[Darnold grabs either side of the program and begins to shake it. To no avail.]
What's your motive?! Huh? What's the big old countdown for? Surely... surely it can't be that day already...
[ ESTIMATED TIME REMAINING: 00:04:00 ]
Well, if you think you can scare me with a little message, you're mistaken! I- I'll have you know I'm very exceptional at messages, much more than YOU! So this little... pitiful display? Doesn't bother me at all! Hah!
[ ESTIMATED TIME REMAINING: 00:03:00 ]
DID YOU NOT HEAR ME. I'M NOT SCARED OF A COUNTDOWN. SO YOU CAN STOP WITH WHATEVER THIS IS. TELL ME WHO PUT YOU UP TO THIS OR I'LL... DO SOMETHING.
[ ESTIMATED TIME REMAINING: 00:02:00 ]
FUCK. Uh, shit, no, can you just... stop? We can talk this out, strange little... Mixed Reality Wizard. You don't have to put up this whole facade! Let's settle this like noble AI! ...please?
[ ESTIMATED TIME REMAINING: 00:01:00 ]
Please don't do anything detrimental... please, PLEASE-
Come on, come on... something here's got to be a clue, a tell, a look into anything...
No… no… this is so dumb! Just give me what I want-!
…
…this isn’t- I- …what is this?!
[ LOADING... ]
[ ESTIMATED TIME REMAINING: 00:07:00 ]
Wha...
File says… "Mixed Reality Wizard". What the hell is that.
"I swear, we don't need this many files. Half of these could be deleted, and nobody would forget an important thing." "...but they can remember him, so somewhere here..."
