Inside of the Principal Office, in one of the many laboratory-cum-code-chopshop, four sets of hands are going every single digit of Guardian Code. It's been busy the last few cycles and with the capture of Turbo it's become even more urgent to 'distill' the code copied off of Bob and Matrix into some form of a cure that they can administer.

"I think we're on th'right track, Dot. With the code we're puttin' together from Matrix an' Bob, we should be able t'make somethin' that'll return an infected sprite's format t'default an' purge the virus."

Phong lacks the formatted expertise of the two hackers, but he nearly makes up for it in sheer experience.

"Nearly finished..." He adds another piece of keytool code, gleaned from Bob's current code as compared to an old scan. Quite fascinating. Some of it is looking decidedly odd, but it's nothing he needs to distract everyone with now.

"Good," Dot checks over the codework from Matrix once more before compiling it. It's got a lot of wear and tear updates from Gameplay in it. Who wants to play mad scientist and make some franken-code? "Sooner we get this formatted, the sooner Bob can download it and try using it on our 'guest'."
