4.03: Fantasy and microchips, shootin' from the hip.

[katana_hacker]

Hiro is back in the lab, trying to figure something out. There was no real reason for the cure not to work, but the fact is, it didn't. Not completely, anyway. But it should've been complete. Which leaves Hiro wondering: what the hell went wrong?

So he's looking at the vaccine code scrolling past on a vidwindow. It's not an exact copy of SnowScan

It's time to come clean.

Bob's been wavering about whether or not to tell Hiro what he knows--if Hiro tells Dot, the whole thing'll unravel. But getting the cure to work is too important to let Bob's own misgivings get in the way. It's time to come clean.

"Hiro?"

Bob nods and tries to smile. "I will. So do you think you can correct for it and get the cure working?"

[katana_hacker]

"I think so, yeah. Particularly given the added impetus."

It takes Bob a moment to realize what Hiro is talking about. "Thanks. I appreciate it."

"You're welcome." Hiro manages a half-smile. "We will get them back, and cured if we have to. And I wouldn't want to be Daemon when YT breaks free of her Word."
