:02:01
- Interested?
- Sure.
:02:03
I'd love to go up against
one of those guys.
:02:05
It'd make a nice break from
those accounting cream puffs.
:02:10
- What branch of the service?
- Strategic Air Command.
:02:15
Nice!
:02:17
Look. This is
all a mistake.
:02:20
I'm just a compound
interest program.
:02:23
I work at a
savings and loan.
:02:26
- I can't play these video games!
- Sure you can.
:02:28
- You look like a natural athlete.
- Me?
:02:32
I get out of breath
checking on T-bill rates.
:02:35
You're gonna make my User,
Mr. Henderson, very angry.
:02:38
- He's a Full Branch Manager.
- Another religious nut!
:02:46
I'd say
"Welcome, friend",
:02:48
but not here.
:02:50
I don't know
what I'm doing here.
:02:54
Do you believe
in the Users?
:02:57
Sure. If I
don't have a User,
:03:00
who wrote me?
- That's what you're doing here.
:03:03
Master Control Program's been
snapping up all us programs who believe.
:03:07
If you're useful,
he takes over all your functions.
:03:10
If he can't use you, he sends you
here to get your bits blasted.
:03:14
- What's your name?
- Crom.
:03:17
I'm Ram.
:03:19
They'll train you
for the games,
:03:22
but... I hope you make it.
:03:27
What's been going on
in the other sectors?
:03:30
I've been stuck here
for 200 microcycles.
:03:33
It's murder
out there.
:03:36
You can't travel in
your own microcircuits...
:03:38
without permission from
Master Control Program.
:03:42
Sending me to play games.
Who does he calculate he is?
:03:52
Okay, Clu,
:03:54
tonight we check everything
in the right hand column.
:03:59
Where are you?
There you are.
