The Positively Tronic Man
Plot Synopsis
46 needs Shauna's help to resolve a major problem.
Plot Summary
46 came to Shauna after realizing that since he had been repaired his ability to swear and call people horrible names had been greatly impaired. Shauna agreed that 46's new attitude was greatly unsettling and set about to fix him. Marty came to check on 46 while he was being worked on and quoted the scripture of |Jim| which did nothing but frustrate 46 because he could not tell Marty how he really felt about the whole situation.
Unable to find anything wrong Shauna called in Alice to help 46 through a problem she thought was not mechanical but was psychological instead. She quickly discovered that he had no problem lying, but aggressive verbal abuse was still beyond him. She also discovered his sarcasm was in tact, and had a bit of fun at his expense in response to his sarcasm. Though the sessions did make 46 angrier they did not change his condition and he returned to Shauna for more help.
Shauna then attempted electroshock therapy which caused 46 to reboot and when he did he spouted things about bunnies and happiness and Shauna quickly began to worry about the damage she'd done, only for 46 to admit he was messing with her. Back to his former state 46 went to speak with Marty but found himself using words like "peachy", much to his dismay, but when Marty quoted the Book of |Jim| again he was able to respond with a "fuck you," and felt like all was well in the world again.
