Another note - coming off your recent discussion about authors considering characters facets of themselves vs independent entities with "lives of their own," that here, Holland surprised his author.

It happens.

Yep - almost as if he was trying to prove a point.

Ack, you're such a tease! Make with the exposition, already!

Holland's scene - interesting. The man came dangerously close to some self-reflection there. Maybe there's a seed of hope for him after all.

Although his reflections on the koth remind the audience how formidable they are. One of the few things that could rip up an AI like Justin's shell so effectively.

I suspect Justin's core won't get the report from this fragment.

Sigh. I've said it every time she's popped up for the past few months. Poor Nisha.

Lots of little movement in the dialogue make it come to life. Nicely done!
