A Disassembly Drone, an unstoppable death machine, stopped by the shot of a railcannon.
Yes, there's a lot of awesome moments in a web series involving killer robots.

Episode 1 - Pilot

  • Uzi managing to build a BFG capable of decimating a Murder Drone in one shot.
  • N managing to pry open the front door of the Outpost 3 (Uzi's Colony) when it doesn't close in time, and then blindly pinning Uzi’s access card to the door control.
  • Uzi and N's fight against J and V after N's Heel–Face Turn. It's enough to earn the respect of Uzi's classmates, who had previously mocked her. Not to mention that Uzi is probably the first Worker Drone to kill a Disassembly Drone.

Episode 3 - The Promening

  • There’s a reason why everyone was excited about the prom episode and the following scene proves this. Complete with the fluid animation, the colorful lighting to set the show and the amazing background music that heightens the action.
    • A dark example; Lizzy and Doll managed to fool V into a trap. The former pretended to be friends with her to the point of seemingly learning and exploiting her desire for attention and love. Meanwhile, the latter executed the prom queen candidates to allow V to be the victor on stage, giving her a chance to strike. If it weren’t for Uzi and N stepping in, Doll could have gotten away with killing V in front of an entire crowd of Worker Drones.
    • Lizzy deserves some praise as well. Despite being a False Friend to V, it seems she is the second Worker Drone after Uzi to get along with a Disassembly Drone. While Played for Laughs due to finding V ‘hotter than Doll’, Lizzy realized how far Doll was going and tried to warn V to run.
    • Doll continued her plan to kill V despite Uzi’s and N’s arrival. She summoned a couple of metal sticks to trap V. Then, she came close to the stage, not reacting at all when she popped one of the panicking Worker Drones, and forced V to watch the memory of killing her parents. The fact that this terrifies V proves Doll to be more dangerous than the Murder Drones.
      • V chose to fight back, tearing her arm out from the metal stick and tried shooting Doll. Unfortunately, the latter blocked all the bullets before throwing a knife to disarm V. With V unarmed, Doll tore a fan from its ceiling and nearly came close to killing her.
    • Uzi’s words to Doll when she questioned why she was working with the Murder Drones count as this. Remember, Uzi went through a lot after being nearly killed and left scarred from what she witnessed, but she was still willing to work with N if it meant fixing things.
      Doll: Uzi, would you really side with the Murder Drones? I’m not the only one who’s lost family to them.
      Uzi: Bite me! Whoever started this wants us to fight. I’m not dealing with anything well, but I’m done dealing with everything alone. [glances at N with a smile who returns the same smile in gratitude] We move forward together or not at all.
      Doll: [unamused] Cute, but I don’t need help.
      • The reactions from V and Khan speak volumes about how powerful Uzi’s words are to both Disassembly AND Worker Drones. V, the Murder Drone who had been enemies with Uzi, was surprised by her defending her. Khan, after fearing the Murder Drones and neglecting his daughter for so long, gives a warm smile in pride of Uzi’s bravery.
    • N pushing Uzi out of the way from the knives Doll threw at them. He knew that Uzi didn’t have regenerative powers like him and V, (yet) choosing to take the hit so that Uzi could survive.
    • When Uzi’s hand got stabbed with a knife, she pulled it out with an Evil Laugh. Doll is terrified by this, realizing that her Absolute Solver power doesn’t work on Uzi.
    • Doll still proves to be a great threat as she defended herself from any object Uzi tried throwing at her. When she got Uzi trapped by two microphone sticks, she summoned duplicated knives…only for N to block them off for Uzi.
    • When Uzi got back on her feet, she and N did an impromptu dance to avoid getting hit by Doll’s knives. Uzi grabbed one and used it to catch Doll off-guard when it nearly hit her, allowing N’s missile to send her flying back.
    • After N threw Uzi upwards from getting hit by a table, we are presented with Doll lifting several tables a la Carrie. In mid-air, Uzi used the tables as platforms to hop, kicked another thrown knife to hit Doll’s key bracelet and used the latter’s shock as a distraction to deliver a kick in the face.
    • To finish it off, V shot Doll in the back of her head before she could attack again, relishing with a Slasher Smile.
  • While the trio are inspecting Doll's home, the home's resident teleports to their location, having recovered from her otherwise fatal wound and pulls out the bullet that V shot her with. When she tries to shoot Uzi with the bullet however, Uzi's Absolute Solver power ends up kicking in and she manages to stop the bullet just before it hits her.

Episode 4 - Cabin Fever

  • While terrifying, Uzi's Absolute Solver form is something to behold, allowing her to go toe to toe with V; and if N hadn't stepped in, she might have actually KILLED V...
    • Of course, N arrived in the nick of time and picked her up, ending the scuffle in seconds by blocking Uzi's next attack and flinging her into the air so she has time to calm down.
    • Let's be more specific here... N threw V up in the air past the cloud layer, which — if Copper-9 works anything like Earth — has to be at least a few thousand feet in the air. He did this with one arm! Just what is that boy made out of?!

Episode 5 - Home

  • J manages to break through chains by chewing them out after Tessa keeps speaking ill of JC Jenson. It really shows the quality of these robots.
  • J and Tessa fighting against Cyn. ‘Nuff said.
  • While Cyn is a terrifying beast of death, she is still something that can’t be denied, awesome. A robot zombie that is infected by the Solver and thanks to it, she is able to manipulate matter and physics. Her fight against Tessa and J is one hell of a scene to see.
  • Knowing that the small little girl we see will grow to become Tessa from the present is actually pretty darn cool.

Episode 6 - Dead End

  • In a Creepy Awesome way, Alice is this. A serial killer and her baby sidekick who lives in the facilities underground where they tested the Solver, eating any unfortunate drone that winds up down there and collecting a piece of them for the antlers of her hat.
  • The Sentinels. Robot dinosaurs designed to hunt down other drones. They are the bad guy of the episode and not only do they have a Boring, but Practical ability, they have killed several Disassembly Drones.
  • V’s fight against the Sentinel drones to give the squad a chance to solve this whole mess and she sacrifices herself to save her friends. She possibly dies here, at least, giving a good fight.

Episode 7 - Mass Destruction

  • In a flashback, Yeva saves the worker that retrieved her to keep AS!Nori at bay since the rest of the human workers died trying to hold her down.
  • N and Nori Vs AS!Uzi. N and Nori fights a possessed Uzi that keeps growing limbs with scythes at the end with the fight ending after Uzi finally fights back the Solver.
    • There are moments where the Solver starts to invoke null black holes too. And both N and Nori manage to defeat it despite the odds!
  • Khan is finally done being a coward and is preparing for the worst and taking a step for badassery. He is trying to rebuild Uzi’s railgun and finally start defending the colony. Later in the episode, J is waiting for Tessa to come back when she finish the mission and is suddenly stopped by a school bus that makes her to lose her keys. Comes out Thad and Lizzy with customized versions of the railgun, something to which J actually takes caution as her screen suddenly reads “prior hazard”. It seems like the Worker Drones are taking more actions to defend themselves and that is so cool to see.
