Cybersix S1 E3

## Plot

In Von Reichter's mansion, he's working on a new experiment in his lab. It's a pile of goo that he calls Terra, and he wants it to destroy Cyber 6 for him. It was made from the mud of the first sea on Earth. It's sent to Meridiana and is given José's intellect. However, José is mad that Terra now looks like and imitates him, and makes it bigger by giving it the strength of five Fixed Ideas. At school, Lucas asks Adrian to the movies, but she politely declines. On the plus side, she learned that he likes romance movies. Terra, now a mutated pile of mud again, grows giant size and escapes through the vent and out into the city. Cyber 6 wonders what it would be like to go out with Lucas. Terra arrives at the movie theater where Lucas is and takes a mother and her child. Lucas follows and attacks it. However, since it's made of mud and is capable of shaping itself into any form, physical attacks are useless. He does get it to drop the mother and her child though, who run away. Terra picks Lucas up, but Cyber 6 gets its attention before it can eat him. She and Data 7 try to tie it up, but like I said before, it can shapeshift. José shows up and orders Terra to attack Cyber 6. She and Data 7 are able to get it to drop Lucas. Terra disappears. It turns out that it can somehow camouflage and blend in with the ground, wall, and ceiling. It's able to get a hold of Cyber 6 and starts absorbing her strength or something. It easily tosses Lucas aside, and Data 7 saves him before he can fall off the building to his death. Cyber 6 warns them to stay back. Suddenly, Terra absorbs the love and concern that she feels for them, and changes. Terra has gained free will, which is what happened to the Cybers, and why Von Reichter had them all destroyed. Terra speaks and asks Cyber 6 what love is. José orders him to finish her off, but Cyber 6 offers to help him and says that he doesn't have to be evil. He says that she's different and runs away, feeling conflicted. Also, the only reason I'm classifying Terra as male, even though they're technically mud but have a feminine name, is for ease of summary with pronouns, and because Terra's voice actor is male. But I didn't expect him to speak, just make noises and stuff, like Dee Bradley Baker "voicing" animals or Alan Tudyk "voicing" Heihei. And in hindsight, *of course* it's called Terra, that's Latin for earth. Anyways, José and the Fixed Ideas go after him. Cyber 6 tells Lucas that she's alright, but he says that it's okay if she's not and offers to help. However, she and Data 7 leave. Back at the abandoned mansion we saw in the first episode, José is reprimanding Terra, who says that he won't kill Cyber 6. José is a little surprised that he can talk now and leaves with a Fixed Idea, but not before imprisoning Terra in a cage and telling him not to go anywhere. José knows that there's something wrong with Terra and that they can't trust him, but then he comes up with a plan. Terra wants to see Cyber 6, but the bars of the cage are electrified. José later dumps Terra into a large pool of sustenance, which makes him even bigger and changes him into a mud monster. Cyber 6 tells Data 7 to not let Lucas leave his apartment. Then she follows some Fixed Ideas, who lead her to Terra's location as a trap. He attacks her, and she runs away to a tower. She can't escape because there are bars on all the windows, and she's not strong enough to break them. José decides to set the building on fire to get rid of her and Terra, who he only sees as a thing. Lucas sees the fire from his apartment and instinctively knows that Cyber 6 is in trouble. Data 7 goes to the tower with him. Terra starts doing that absorbing thing again, but he absorbs Cyber 6's heart again and speaks to her, telling her that his name is Terra. He fights with himself. Cyber 6 says that he's like her, as in he's not really evil, and tells him that she feels sorry for him. She sheds a tear, which he absorbs. He glows blue and shrinks down into his more humanoid appearance. She tells him to escape while he can. She's trapped, but he has to get out, or the fire will burn him too. Instead, being mud, he uses himself to put out the fire, even though it kills him. José and the Fixed Ideas retreat when Data 7 and Lucas arrive. Cyber 6 is okay, but Terra is truly gone for good. Lucas asks her if he'll ever understand any of this. She says that he might one day, but not today. She and Data 7 leave as the sun rises over Meridiana.
