Zero wasn't quite sure exactly what the man was saying, as his self-made lip-reading program was far from perfection, but he saved the entire record for further processing once the program was further developed. He did however, catch that the man's name was Poe, and something about Robobrains and ZAX A.I.s, which, in his opinion, were inferior to him. When he caught the phrase "couldn't...Turing test." however, he spoke up, knowing he could prove the man wrong.
"I'll have you know, I preformed the Turing test over five hundred times before the nuclear bombs fell, and, thanks to one of my many intuitive programs, I was able to pass them 17.16% of the time." Poe said something about his self-diagnostic and thermal ablation. "I assure you, I'm in proper repair." When the man drew his plasma gun, however, he realized that it was actually a threat. He brought up his claw arm to block the shot and started to move away, when the lights dimmed. Fortunately, however, he was able to see into the infrared.
