Everybody Hates Chris

Everybody Hates Chris is the fifth episode of HTML: The Animated Series. In this episode, an old friend of Bobby's has a personal vendetta against Riskware Corporations, and it's up to W3 Source to stop him before he succumb's to murder of the possibly innocent.
==Plot==
The episode opens with a cold open not related to the remainder of the episode. Malware City was founded and began when Claude Dawson stood proclaiming, "I shall build a mighty city here, a city that will not operate in a malicious, undesirable manner, but a prosperous, mighty empire!" Seconds after, he was stabbed to death by his own men (off-screen), who blamed the murder on Indians.
In present day, Bobby looks out his window at the rain, pondering the forecast. "Rain's good for the farmers only sometimes", says Bobby, citing the presence of sulphur dioxide and nitrous oxide in acid rain. W3 Source mentions that Malware City's prime pollution offender is Riskware Corporations, which he's also investigating for reported ties to terrorists. At the Riskware Corporations HQ, W3 Source finds a security guard knocked out and the workers gone, with a single light shining in the building. "A place to start" thinks Source.
In the office where the light glows, a mysterious man pummels the already-bruised face of a young businessman. As the young man spits blood, he says to the mysterious man that the beatings won't do any good. "Maybe not, but it's fun" says the man. Having sent all the workers away with a bomb threat, the mysterious man could kill the young businessman if he wanted. W3 Source leaps down through the skylight and takes on the mysterious man, who reveals his name to be Chris. Chris goes down easily, but comes back for a second round, spining Source around and kicking him in the face. Chris cracks Source with a wooden chair, shuts out the lights, and makes a getaway.
At the apartment, Bobby questions why Source couldn't take down and apprehend a single man, and Source states that Chris was extremely agile and his strength was above human. Suddenly, Bobby begins hearing people talk. From a drawer, Source pulls out a police radio he had obtained from their previous encounter with the law. An officer reports a burglary at the Spyware Industries HQ, and Source knows it has to be Chris. After telling him not to come, Bobby follows anyways.
Inside the HQ, Chris is beating numerous guards in an epic brawl. He eventually makes his way to the managing director of Spyware Industries, Trent, but he is surprised to find W3 Source guarding him. Source tries to convince Chris that violence is never the answer (again, viewers get a deeper look into Source's motives and philosophy), but to no use until Bobby shows up in his suit from The Terminator. They both immediately recognize each other. Seeing the police coming, Source grabs Chris and Bobby and flies away to escape.
The two men begin to reminisce back at Bobby's apartment. Chris defended Bobby from bullies back in high school, and the two ultimately became great friends. Chris then explains his motives for hunting down entrepreneurs of major businesses in Malware City. After high school, Chris joined the army were his superior officer Sgt. McDonald, an affiliate of either Riskware Corporations or Spyware Industries, convinced him of picking up a package of drugs. Coincidentally, Chris was busted by another superior officer and fired, left homeless on the streets. He had been seeking revenge ever since that day.
Bobby says Chris can sleep on his couch, since Source doesn't require sleep. Source offers to help Chris hunt down Sgt. McDonald, as long as Chris doesn't kill him. He agrees, with his fingers crossed behind his back...
