Power Up CID

Power Up CID is a mission in Saints Row IV.
==Overview==
This mission is the first of two objectives in the "Ghost in the Machine" quest.
Kinzie and Playa are not able to rescue the other Saints without the A.I., and the A.I. will not assist without a body. Kinzie manages to locate several C.I.D.s that are being used to reactivate the first hotspot. Also at that location is a new weapon, the Bounce Rifle, and several Zin.
==Gameplay==

After collecting the Bounce Rifle and clearing the area of Zin, Playa approaches one of five C.I.D.s. After touching it, it blows up, as does a second. A third attempt succeeds.
;
Takes C.I.D. to a near-by rooftop so Kinzie can locate its' tracking device and clear its original programming.
;
While this happens the Zin locate the C.I.D. and attempt to destroy it.
;
;
Once the locator beacon has been deactivated and the original programming wiped, Kinzie initates the download of the A.I. and states that it will take 55 minutes to complete the download. When asked why it will take so long, Kinzie replies that the connection in that part of the simulation is slow. If the C.I.D. is taken to an area of greater connection speed, such as the nuclear plant,it may allow the download to finish faster, but such an area will be guarded. Regardless of the danger Playa decides to head to the Nuclear Plant. Enroute to the plant Playa asks how long it will take for them to start rescuing the Saints once CID is online. Kinzie states they should be able to rescue the others almost immediately, assuming the A.I. isn't lying. She is then surprised, and annoyed, to find their first rescue is to be Matt Miller.
;
Clear the area of Zin.
;
Initiate the download, which Kinzie states should take 16 minutes.
;
When Playa asks if anything can be done to speed it up further, Kinzie looks for access points to increase the bandwidth for the download whilst Playa defends CID against the Zin.
;
Kinzie locates two access points near the nuclear plant. Once the access points are brought online the download picks up speed, too much speed.
;
Returns to CID and freezes it with an ice blast to prevent an overload.
;
Once CID has cooled down, Kinzie slows down the connection to prevent another overload, it should now take three minutes. Whilst this final download is occuring, Playa is forced to defend CID from a new type of enemy, Murderbots. When Playa suggests providing the A.I. with a Murderbot body, Kinzie advises it could be a bad idea, plus there is a real CID shell onboard the ship.
;
Finally the download is complete and CID announces it's time to kill some aliens. Then a Warden arrives and engages Playa. After defeating the Warden Playa is granted the power of Telekinesis. The mission finally ends after Playa completes a training simulation.

==Trivia==
* If the game is saved and reloaded after gaining Telekinesis, it is available in the open world, but the Bounce Rifle cannot be kept this way.
* After this mission, the ZPD Kenshin will no longer spawn.
* Although Kinzie warns against damaging the C.I.D.s it's impossible to destroy them.
* The images displayed around CID as he's downloading are a mixture of screenshots from Saints Row, Saints Row 2 and Saints Row: The Third, including photos of Johnny Gat, Kinzie and Playa.
* How the Saints Save Christmas DLC is unlocked after completing this mission.
