    oh my, looks like using THE MIC and cammy gave him the ability to wirelessly mess with non sapient machines (hopefully).

      No, no, this is Dr. Jones’ work: the wireless router was inside him all along!

        More specifically, in his wireless brain nodes

    …Vegan snickerdoodles is another of Dr. Lee’s codewords?

      I believe we’re seeing a new ability from Nick, here.

    So the battle suits are programmable, thus “squeeze until they’re unconscious” might work.

    How stretched is Ginny’s sweater now?

    • Candace

      Probably very stretched out. Ruined, no doubt. And I suspect Ron will not be able to let go of Virginia unless Nick commands it. Lucky for Dr. Lee, Nick is an honorable guy, and will probably do so as soon as he thinks of it, rather than making her wriggle out of the sweater to escape Ron’s clutches.

        Of course, it appears likely that if she did wriggle out of the sweater, she would fall a rather long distance, so, probably not the best idea in any case. Nor is commanding him to let her go – same result. Nick will have to be careful how he words his next command.

          Not necessarily, She’s in arm’s reach of the walls and she’s already demonstrated action heroine tendencies. So Nick could pull her back in even if she couldn’t get back in on her own. Assuming no interference from Ron who should probably be neutralized ASAP before he gets further chances to avenge his being wronged by a vegetarian. ^_^

          If Nick were to get Annex-1 to set them down before making Ron let go, it would be a non-issue.

          Nick could also pull Ron backwards, which would bring Virginia back in from the edge.

    Dr. Lee: Problem Solver! 😉

    I’ve been waiting for this moment! Nick instinctively seized control of Ron’s armor to save his lady love…

    So this is where those IT guys ended up after their series ended.

    “This is Anasigma Product Help Hotline, how can i help you?”
    “Uuhhh my battle suit is frozen and I cannot move”
    “We can certainly help with that sir. Now If I may can I get your name and your employee number?”
    “Listen this is emergency I need help soon-”
    “Please don’t be belligerent sir, I am here to help you. Now can I have your Name and Employee Number?”
    “OH FOR PETE’s SAKE-”
    “I am sorry sir, since you keep uncooperative I have to terminate your call here. Hope you have nice day”
    “No, wait-“

    Fortunately, it’s quite difficult to even reach the on -off switch when your suit is frozen and you can’t move.

      Maybe Dr. Lee thought of that when she built the suits. What part of his body inside his suit could he still move?

        I’m afraid the answer to that question is outside the normal low PG rating of this webcomic. I’m not sure that Dr. Lee’s mind would go to such areas anyway.

    “Have you tried switching it off and on again?” is the second-most popular tech-support question – right after “Is it plugged in?”

      “No it isn’t, which only makes the messages I’m receiving all the more concerning.”

        “I’m sorry. If it’s not plugged in, you don’t need tech support. You need an exorcist. Have a nice day.”

    Dr Lee did say Nick had an unfair advantage over the robots.

    Presumably this is what you get from a brain with embedded cybernetics, as enhanced by a pair of sane and mad scientists.

    Tomorrrow: Ron carefully pulls Dr. Lee back in. Then starts doing The Robot as Nick plays with his ability to control the suit.

    Well, I’ve heard more ridiculous failsafe shutdown codes
