** Reese and Root build a supercomputer to decompress the Machine out of UsefulNotes/{{PlayStation 3}}s. [[http://phys.org/news/2010-12-air-playstation-3s-supercomputer.html This is something that's actually happened.]]

'''Root:''' [[UsefulNotes/PlayStation3 These particular gaming consoles]] [[MrExposition have a unique cellular structure that can be scaled. Networked, they approach the processing power of a supercomputer, but only use about a tenth of the power, and their OS can be overwritten with Linux.]]\\

** Shaw's back to knocking out her nurse and threatening Lambert, mentioning that [[KickTheSonOfABitch "it's so fun getting you shot a thousand different ways."]] Lambert orders two mooks to disarm her and bandage her hand (from a broken shard of glass) and neither one wants to take on [[ActionGirl Shaw.]] Too bad it's not a simulation this time.

''Alone. Reading 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea. Exciting. And salty. Nobody’s night is more exciting than this.''

''Foolish man home safely. Tall Man has rendezvous’d for my extraction. Conclude security detail transmission. See you later.''

*** Then it happens in reverse, with the criminal dragging Reese while griping.

*** No mention is made of it, but Reese has some trouble with the chopsticks he's using. By the next cut to a different angle, he's switched to using a fork.

** The Machine gets him back in by making one of the juror's phone's go off and getting him held in contempt. For some reason, it also takes the time to change his ringtone to MC Hammer's "Can't Touch This".

*** After Reese successfully neutralizes security, Finch enters the building to find Reese holding several looted assault rifles.

** Reese quieting AngryGuardDog Bear by speaking Dutch. (Video [[http://www.graubaers-boker.com/ here.]])

** Shaw and ''Fusco'' (in cool shades) doing a PowerWalk.

** [[NotGoodWithPeople Shaw]] gets stuck talking down a suicidal man in a bomb vest. Realizing the issue with this situation, she calls Reese.

** For that matter, the way their respective weapons fit their characters is pretty funny. Carter has her [[BoringButPractical trusty standard-issue police officer's piece.]] [[GunNut Shaw]] has the latest in state-of-the-art weapons tech. And [[TheChick Zoe]]... has a Taser. A ''pink'' Taser.

** When he gets there, he hides in the closet, popping out [[{{Beat}} a moment later]] to toss Bear his chew toy before darting back in...only to realize that all three walls are ''[[MoreDakka completely covered in]] [[WallOfWeapons weapons and ammunition]]''. His expression of bug-eyed horror is what really sells it. Gifs of the moment can be found [[http://relevanttosomeone.tumblr.com/post/70334911359/the-closet-of-mass-destruction-oh-how-i-miss-you here,]] [[http://adeadedskull.tumblr.com/post/52002130246/dont-insult-the-closet-of-mass-destruction here,]] [[http://gallifreyan-detective.tumblr.com/post/76373852313/when-will-you-ever-going-to-need-all-those and here.]]

* "/" ("[[NoPronunciationGuide Root Path]]"):

** The exasperation level gets taken UpToEleven when he tells her that he [[ArsonMurderAndJaywalking left the baby in Reese's care]]. He is utterly matter-of-fact about the whole thing until the store cashier mistakes the two of them for new parents:

** The MexicanStandoff in the church. Lambert and Root are sitting in the pews with the latter pointing a gun at his back. Martine pops up pointing a handgun at Root. Then [[UpToEleven Reese materializes, aiming a sniper rifle at Martine]]. Then there's the conversation they have as this all unfolds, with CasualDangerDialogue abounding and Lambert putting on a WickedCultured act:

*** Later, Fusco is guarding her at a social function, and Finch calls him, advising him that he's tapped the building's cameras and advises him to stay away from the shrimp puffs after seeing the condition of the kitchen. Fusco hurriedly takes the shrimp puff he's about to bite into out of his mouth.

** This exchange when Reese appears in the backseat of Carter's police cruiser.
