The scientist wakes up several hours later just long enough to see his trusted robot, X9 and the two clone soldiers looking down at him. He realizes that he is on one of his examination tables. He tries to sit up, but the effort places too much strain on him and he collapses into another dizzy state of unconsciousness. All the time he is in the dark, his mind is racing, spinning out equations, presenting magnificent and terrible dreams and seeming to answer a lot of questions he has been looking for solutions to. Finally, after a day on his table being administered by X9 and the two clones, the scientist regains consciousness again. This time, he feels much stronger, having been hooked up to the beneficial devices on his examination table, and is able to see more clearly when he opens his eyes. 'What has happened to me?' he asks. 'I feel so strange. Is the mechocta damaged?' The mechanical voice of X9 tells the scientist that nothing happened to the mechocta. All they know is that they were in the process of training when they heard a loud noise and looked over to see the scientist hit the floor. They noticed that one of the tentacles of the mechocta was moving away from the scientist's body. They all went over to see what was wrong but all attempts to revive the scientist failed. X9 decided they needed to place the scientist on an examination table. X9 has a medical subroutine in his programming and was able to operate most effectively in hooking up all the necessary devices on the table to attempt a diagnosis of what was wrong with the scientist. But the exam came up with nothing. They became more concerned when they noticed the scientists cranium begin to swell. It grew at an alarming rate and all his hair fell out. None of the gauges on the exam table seemed to indicate any problems with the scientist's vitals so they could only wait to see what would happen to him. 'Please help me to my feet.' requested the scientist. 'I wish to examine this new development you speak of!' 'Certainly!' says X9 as he and the two clone soldiers help the scientist to his feet.
