Patrick: Your guests for today showed up half an hour ago.
Cohen: Perfect. I’m going to do a bonus experiment during this battle. Don’t give it away to either of them, all right?
Patrick: No problem, sir!
Cohen: Hello there! Sorry to keep you waiting. I hope you’ve enjoyed the buffet!
Cybele’s former Master: Aw, yeah, man, it’s been great! So you’re the guy who does test Being battles for science, huh?
Cohen: That’s right. And you’re the Master of the Rabbit. A pleasure to meet you.
Cybele’s former Master: Hey, now, we don’t go in for that sort of capitalist fetishization of power structures. Me an’ my girl, we’re an equal team of partners. You don’t have a problem with that, do you, Mr. CEO?
Cohen: Perish the thought! I have a perfectly liberal mindset toward people who use sex toys.
Cybele’s former Master: Wha — buh — We challenge you!
Cohen: Great! I accept.
Classy way to get a challenge, Cohen.
Note that rabbit didn’t mind. As all beings, she would be perfectly fine being equal partner in day and sex toy in night, as long as it makes her master happy. Unlike some computers Kirk talked with, they seem to have big resistance against logical paradoxes.
Oh my god the Rabbit was owned by a hippie. How the hell did she get to Bennett?!
Oh God, what if that’s Bennett’s father?!
Okay, rolling out the theories on this “experiment”.
1: Cohen’s gonna try and physically harm the rabbit’s master.
2: He’ll try to harm the rabbit.
3: He’ll try and pull out of the match early.
I think he’s going to try to break the Rabbit’s bond from its Master.
This guy didn’t even get a name in the transcripts… that can’t possibly go well.
