ReBoot quotes

Dot

Phong, is that you?

Eh? Who's that?

Dot

It's me, Phong. It's Dot.

....Ohhh yes! Welcome, welcome! Tell me, how is your president? I have a present for her! I know it's here somewhere...

Dot

Look, Phong, do you know where Bob is?

......Bob? Oh... Oh yes, yes, yes, he is here too! [Dives into his box and starts flinging junk out] Bob, where are you my little friend? Oh, here he is! You were hiding, weren't you? Bad Bob, bad Bob! [Emerges with a blue Null in a cage] No one believes me, but truly, Bob here used to be a great Guardian! Ah, he was something back then... Ehh, but those times are gone. Cute little fellow, no?

Dot

No! No, that's not Bob! It can't be! Oh, what have I done? I lost the game and I destroyed Mainframe! I didn't even try. If only I could have another chance...

Chance has nothing to do with it, child. The future is not determined by a throw of the dice. It is determined by the conscious decisions of you and me.

Dot

What? What did you say?

Oh, would you like to see my windshield collection? I have many kinds!

You look perplexed.

Dot

What did you do to me? Was that a dream?

It was, shall we say, a reflection of yourself. What did you see?

Dot

I saw someone who let everybody down because she gave up. She didn't even try. Only it was me.

You learn well, my child.

Nice going, Dot! You beat the Fun House! I knew you wouldn't let me down! Phong, what are you doing here?

Dot

It's a long story.

I'm not getting a response! Wait! Something is happening!

Megabyte

"Turn... around"? [A vidwindow pops up behind him]

Dot

Attention, inhabitants of Silicon Tor: Your struggle for dominance is now over. I would like to take this opportunity to personally thank my dear friend Cyrus for helping me out with such a cunning and insightful plan. And as for the rest of you, hah! Who cares? [Blows a kiss before closing window]

[Gulp]

Megabyte

Hack, Slash, take him to the PID extraction chamber. I need a new shoeshine droid...

Glitch! Uh... Anything!

Hexadecimal

Megabyte, what a delightful mess you're making!

Megabyte

Thank you, Hex. I thought you'd enjoy it.

Hexadecimal

Now you wouldn't be intending to erase me, would you?

Megabyte

Oh, come now. Would that be any way to treat family?

You have what you need. Now use his greed....

Okay, mister, first thing's first, release my friend, now!

Very well.

Dot

We need more transport! We've gotta get everyone out of here now!

Everything that flies is in motion, Ms Matrix!

Dot

Not quite everything. Drastic times call for drastic measures. (calls Megabyte)

Megabyte

Ms Matrix, what a delightful...intrusion.

Dot

This is strictly business, Megabyte.

Megabyte

Oh really? Do tell. A partnership, perhaps?

Dot

Hardly. I need to rent some transport, now.

Megabyte

I do apologize, but this is not a taxi service. Especially under present circumstances.

Dot

But-!

Megabyte

Please, don't ask for any personal favors. Codemasters and viruses have a rather, how should I put this...unpleasant history? Good luck. [Ċloses Dot's vid window] You'll need it.

Dot

Well, I guess it's all up to Bob now....

All that's left is to ride it out. You know, I'm gonna miss these games. And my friends.

You would give your own life for them?

Yeah. You know, tradition.

Out of my way, Guardian!

You'll have to take me first.

Dot

Copy that.

And triple copy it!

You mean this old binome is so important that you would give up your very codes for him?

Yeah. Call it a Mainframe tradition.

Throughout the entire net, I have never witnessed such a blatant, contemptous display of-

Friendship?

Honour.

I knew you'd do it!

Dot

I can't believe you're-

Put it there, old man...

What are you trying to do? Make an old man sick? GO WA-WAWAWAWAWA-AWAY! [Murmuring inaudibly himself with grumpiness]

Follow me, we gotta get closer. Stay low.
