Gamin Console scene:
The assassin then leaped upon the shaft, his torn jacket brandishing a pistol. Adam and Hui were startled by the footage caught on security camera. Tonight the security system, so systematically laid was impossible for an overrun. They felt helpless at once because they could see more than they and things at a greater distance, not by virtue of any sharpness of sight on their part but because they were carried high at the security base. They fished out the devices to throw signal for the intrusion and possible assault.
Adam: I wish it were real. Gaming is fun; the surreal experience makes you feel like you have outgrown your inept image and have become real heroes who can save this world
Hui almost sheepishly: Yeah! You are the superhero who saves the world
Adam displaying mock anger: Had it not been you, we would have lifted level five well ahead in time. And if I am not the savior, then is it the Chinese ace next to me? (mockingly points at Hui)
Hui: That was racist… Doesn’t help much when you agree we are part of same melting pot. We came from one and will vanish in unison.
Adam: I don’t see any affirmative nods here. (Pun in voice)
Well, why are we physically, anatomically and morphologically so disparate?
Hui: I don’t see much difference. We have not grown tails in Japan, horns in Africa, Furs in USA or wings in India. We are still same. The color of skin, features etc are nothing but geographical adaptation. We are basically still analogous.
Adam: There was Darwin, then Huxley then many more. How do you believe what is true? We may come from one and vanish in one, and then what is the purpose? Doesn’t it sound sadistic? Somebody created us, let us free to fool around and then will destroy us. Isn’t it similar to our games, where we terminate lives? This is so lame.
Hui: We might as well know. But as they say, if the camel once get his nose in the tent his body soon follows. Why does everyone who had a hint of afterlife and et al vanished soon after they hit rock bottom…. Buddha? Jesus?
Adam: I am perplexed… Hasn’t Huxley defended Darwin and won by saying these lines?
To twice slay the slain,
By dint of the Brain,
Is but labor in vain,
Unproductive of gain,
Hui: How would I know? I have my beliefs and I stick to them. I don’t ask you to agree but to ponder.
Adam: Gaming is easier. Let’s hit the button.
And so these men
Disputed loud and long,
Each in his own opinion
Exceeding stiff and strong,
Though each was partly in the right
And all were in the wrong
