She ate a chocolate donut eight months ago, and the guilt has been building ever since? SMILEY

**Neoteny**

I think the truth's going to be about the Intruder...

Ebola

Nooo no more confessions, no more revealed truths!

*covers ears and ears and repeats*

Ignorance is bliss... ignorance is bliss... ignorance is bliss...

Nooo! A potentially really interesting mission comes up on the same week I start an office job? I don't want to wait an extra four hours before I can do the mission!

You think thats bad, my lunchbreak on Thursdays happens at the same time as the server restart, they come back up just as I need to head back to work which means I have to wait til I get back home and after I make some dinner...

Last week I was lucky and my break was shifted to the right... I'm hoping I can do the same today...

I loved this missions, as simple as it was. I thought meeting with Gray was the end and I was like, "aww, short mission." Then he sends me to the meeting (which I expected would take place in an Le or even the next cine) and I was like, "ooh schweet!" I think being at the LE where Pace convinced Intruder to meet made this mission even more fun. Beating up Hypatia and Bookwyrms was fun too. Oh and explaining Hypatia's and Gray's return was nice as well. 2 thumbs up!

so... It's clearly IMPOSSIBLE for a program to die in the Matrix this days, huh ?

Even in the films programs never really died (the Oracle for instance) We saw agents killed the films, but they returned (I guess a human killing an agent and a human with hacking powers killing an agent is a little different.) But I think it makes sense, why wouldn't they have backups?

Think of killing a program in the same way as sending it to the recycle bin... It can be retrieved, if not... well you always have your backup data.. (always make backups)

It's just that when Skinner died, nobody asked about a backup or something like that... This game looks a bit too much like comic books sometimes for me... you know, the rule "Only Ben Parker and Bruce Wayne's parents stay dead". Here it's the same but with Skinner and the Assassin.

**Procurator**

Skinner died at the Assassin's hand, didn't he? The Assassin was kinda special - he had killcodes and could undoubtedly have deleted any program he wanted. Permanently.

**PBlade**

Skinner was infected with the Assassin's corruption virus. If he had remained, it would have spread through the Agent system. Skinner deleted himself to stop the spread of the virus--he basically ripped himself inside-out and eradicated himself from the system to stop the spread of the virus, so his case is a little different than Gray getting slam dunked by the intruder.

Now that I got the right thread...

lol I killed Hypatia...

Weird having Gray as Controller because I didn't know he was restored yet.

Anyway, kinda boring meeting between the big brass. The biological interface program is obviously the only thing the Intruder wants, but why? And who is it? They said the Intruder detected it outside the simulation...was it Sati?

EDIT: oh and I wish someone would just stay dead. besides the above mentioned and those killed with their signals locked right after the mainframe got hacked.
