   | Shit.  Alessandra Torresani was on Attack of the Show on Tuesday and   
   | she said that the ratings were going to have to at least equal that of   
   | the finale of the first half of season 1 or the show will be   
   | cancelled.  She made it sound like it would be for the ratings for   
   | just that episode, but I'm keeping my fingers crossed that the   
   | threshhold is a bit looser than that.  Like, any combination of   
   | average ratings across all the 1.5 episodes, same-week reruns, Live+7   
   | ratings, Hulu & iTunes, etc.   
   |   
   | And damn, this was the best episode yet.

   At least we know now that they really did bring it on themselves.   
   You've got an uncopyable MCP with a combination of an angsty teenager,   
   said teenager's avatar, and some sort of military robot AI.  The MCP   
   is damaged in an undetermined way and becomes copyable.  You make many   
   copies and put them in robots with big guns.  What could possibly go   
   wrong?  And even if that all works out there's a nut planning to send   
   everybody to virtual heaven...
