And she realizes why.

Doesn't have to use the fire extinguisher on them because they have been shipped.

They have been automated, manized.

And now they're best of buds with each other and with her.

So that kind of gives us a sense of the lay of the land here.

And as she's wandering around, we get this water cooler conversation between Sherman and Gregory, we learn their names are later, who are former members of opposing tribes from the surface and very cordially just offering each other the chance to get refreshments first, which I don't know if you saw this, but this reminded me of there was a viral video in November of these two phones with chat GPT talking to each other.

And they're just like each addressing the other, not realizing, I guess, that each LLM is talking to an LLM.

They're just like both talking about how they're going to keep the good vibes rolling.

And it just continues almost infinitely because they just keep picking up prompts from each other and there's no substance to what they're saying whatsoever.

Lucy continues to wander around, and she finds her dad, Hank, bearing his scar in a vault-style unit in the simulation section.

And he, even though he appears to be somewhat surprised when she wanders in, he takes it in stride and...

He just says, we never got to discuss all quiet, did we?

So he wants to have book club.

Book club is in session here, but Lucy didn't do the reading or at least didn't finish the reading.

I wonder whether we would have had a prerecorded voicemail about how they just need some space if she had dialed it.

But I guess the difference is that they do talk to each other because, you know, they're not telepathic.
