Enraged, David marched over to the apartment’s little gymn, where his wife, the twins’ mother, was training, assissted by the Allens’ household android, Silke AP700.
David: “How much longer will this take, Silke?”
Silke: “About...”
But David didn’t really seem to be interested in the answer. He had just asked to enter into a conversation situation with the android.

David: “GOTO - END - RUN.”
Silke closed her eyes. All CyberLife androids, even those programmed for factory work, passed the Turing test. David could just have said “Session’s finished” or something similar. But, no, the human had chosen to remind Silke and everyone around of her machine status, and not even thoughtlessly. David had aimed to hurt.

Claudia: “Okay, I can make a break. - Feel like punching something?”
At this point David wrestled control from me and proceeded to the “Mean” menu on his own:

David: “Matter of fact, yes! My younger self! What were we thinking, making those brats of ours!”
Claudia: “Ey...?”
David: “It was all fun and games when they were in the crib, and started to toddle. But now they’ve grown into monsters that think they can command us around like we were androids! And it’ll be another twelve years ‘till they are out of the house...”

Claudia: “What’s gotten into you? No, don’t answer that. It doesn’t make a difference. You were beyond rude, and you continued down that path when I offered you a way out and a means to work through your frustration.”
David: “Oh, that’s gold! Now those snowflakes of kids of ours drive a wedge between the two of us?!”
Claudia: “More like that kindergarten of a police department that you call your workplace infected you, so you act childishly now, too.”

David: “Shit, Claudia, at this rate I could just as well have volunteered for the holidy shift at the DPD. It pays outrageously well, but I wanted to go mountaineering with you’all!”
Claudia: “Maybe it’s not too late. You can still...”
David: Yeah, I can still patch up things with the twins.
Claudia: “...volunteer.”
David: “Say again?!”

Claudia: “I’ll just take Silke along to the trip, then your ticket won’t go to waste.”
David: “The android?!”
Claudia: “It’s got a parenting app, unlike someone I could name. See, I don’t run around catching criminals, and you don’t fly diplomats to Sixam and back. Maybe when we keep you and the kids neatly seperated from now on, we can salvage this family. It’s worth a try.”
David: “Wait, what, you can’t mean that!”
Claudia: “I’m looking forward to missing you a lot over the holidays, but for now get the fuck off my lawn and let me finish my training!”
