Chloe saw the education terminal, "You dink we can use dat an take contwol?"
He nodded and Chloe hoped he was right. Walking over with him crawling behind her, she once again questioned whether she was with Chief Engineer Carson or Baby Teddy. For both their sakes she hoped it was the former.
Reaching the terminal, Kim sat down and let Carson sit on her lap while she entered in her credentials. Instead of showing the standard data feeds all that was present were toddler targeted programs.
"Dat stubid robot mus have aldered my file! Can you do someding bout dis?" She asked.
"Babi wawal da," he answered while gesturing for her to help him up.
She chose to interpret that as, "I definitely still know how to control the computer systems." and not, "I'm definitely a baby and have no idea how the shiny screen thing works." So, she helped him to a standing position and let him tap on the controls.
"CALCULATIONS COMPLETE. THREAT POSED BY SUBJECTS OUTWEIGH BENEFITS OF NEW DATA AT THIS TIME. SUBJECTS CARSON AND KIM TO BE DIRECTED BACK TO ADOPTING BEHAVIORS OF INFANCY AND TODDLERHOOD FOR CONTROLLED OBSERVATION."
Carson had barely touched the controls when a loud program launched. So loudly Chloe didn't notice as her suit beeped and said, "Toddler Behavior Correction Program Omega Activated."
"DATA INDICATES DIRECT BEHAVIOR REINFORCEMENT TO BE LESS SUCCESSFUL ON TODDLER. FURTHER INDICATES TODDLERS ARE NATURALLY PRONE TO EMOTIONAL VOLATILITY. OMEGA PROGRAM DESIGNED TO INTENSIFY EMOTIONAL RESPONSES. PRIOR OBSERVATIONS INDICATE ANY FURTHER REQUIRED BEHAVIOR MODIFICATION TO BE PROVIDED BY UNIDENTIFIED SUBJECT IN RESPONSE TO EMOTIONAL OUT BURSTS."
"Whad you do?" Chloe asked more harshly than she meant to. But who could blame her? Carson was supposed to be getting them system access not launching one of stupid toddler programs.
