His question was going to be “What underwear does (female character) wear”. The answer, ‘commando’, is slang for no underwear. The only thing is, while I’m sure it should be obvious, I can’t tell what character he was going to ask about.
Go commando!
She’s going ’round without undies!
Don’t fret yourself none, she’s
Got no naughty bits!
What’s she planned, oh?
What will she do with this train now?
Well, Unity’s brain now
Has the sharpest wits!
You can ask what she’s got up her sleeve,
I’ll tell you what she’ll do, dude!
I’m ninety-nine point three percent spot-on!
If I’m not mistaken, I believe
That all of us are screwed, dude!
Better move before she knows that we’ve caught on …
Go commando!
She’s got no bra and no panties!
That “girl” is a man, please,
With no parts to hide!
And undies? What undies?
Just a waste of good cotton!
How could Nick have forgotten
That she’s empty inside?
By “enclosed system,” does Unity mean St Charlie, the Universe, or something in between? (I could believe either at this point.)
I like the way Hyper-Intelligent Unity has a less florid and verbose manner of speaking than the merely super-intelligent version.
Maybe I’m the dumb one, but in 56 years Ive never seen a percentage sign written any way but: % (the percent symbol on my iPhone). What would substitute for a forward slash?
I’d have thought with his sensor suite, Nick wouldn’t need to ask that…

Ms. Bee. He was asking about Ms. Bee, because Unity said she can simulate Ms. Bee’s answer to any question to 93% accuracy.
In Mother Russia, you go Spetznaz!
And in Scotland, ya go Regimental, laddie! ^_^
Huh. I would have guessed Predator.
Nah, those make your entire lower body invisible and keep freaking people out…

Yeah; she’s now smart enough she doesn’t need to do that to demonstrate how smart she is.
You can tell she’s extra smart because she spoke a semicolon.
In the narboniverse, semicolons are an incontrovertible sign of intelligence.
(Also, I’m not intelligent enough t work a semicolon into this post. Sorry.)
Simple fix:
In the Narbon;verse, sem;colons are an ;nvontr;vertible sign of ;ntill;gence..
That would make her as smart as Artie, at least by the standards of Dr. Antonio Smith, Forensic Linguist!
Who?
Oh, you mean ANTONIO SMITH, FORENSIC LINGUIST!
If Unity’s only 99.3% accurate, does that mean that Bee’s actually wearing a really tiny thong?
And, wait, wait, Unity’s percent sign uses a forward slash. Who are you and what did you do with the real Shaenon Garrity?
Maybe I’m the dumb one, but in 56 years Ive never seen a percentage sign written any way but: % (the percent symbol on my iPhone). What would substitute for a forward slash?
Backslash.
Ah. We who discovered Narbonic after the run was over, and didn’t read all the comments, missed the finer points for Shaenonography.
Hey, Skin Horse is listed in a webcomic contest and needs votes! http://www.comicmix.com/mix-march-madness-webcomics-tournament/2013/03/04/announcing-mix-march-madness-2013-seeding-round/
Let’s be honest, you don’t need brains to figure out where Nick is going when handed a straight line like that.
“What’s Violet’s favorite movie, what underwear does she wear, and who’s driving the body?”
So, since Unity can now predict the future, does that mean she’s as smart as Artie?
