Mycroft is not happy today. This is mostly because he found out last night that his oldest son had done something as pig-headed as start a fight with another boy over something entirely pointless

Some time after his father, Fry finds Mycroft and approaches, on his crutches. He still looks uncomfortable.

"He said he was going to release a program that changed clocks. That could cause computers to crash, or delete data. I explained this to him repeatedly.

If you have a hospital computer that you put data in, and it goes back ten minutes, that data might get deleted. Then people could die, because something wasn't recorded properly, or because a test was unordered or surgery unbooked."

"I'm fairly certain you misunderstood his intentions," Mycroft insists.

Of course, both Sherlock and Jackson had neglected to mention that this was discussed openly in the infirmary.

"But he said so!" Fry protests. "Ask Sherlock!"

Oh, dear.

"And why would Sherlock know anything about it? He's good with technology, sure, but I'm don't think he's quite that good."

God help us all if he is.

"Because Jackson admitted it when I told on him. Sherlock was going to tell you, but Jackson was trying to blackmail him."

"Of course he was," Mycroft says quietly. "Did they talk about anything else?"

[sandhu_kids]

"Sherlock said he was ashamed of both of us, and that I probably made it more likely that Jackson would succeed in cyberterrorism in the future." Fry says.

He misses out the part where he confirmed they were still friends.
