*Outside shot of the Absolution mk1, en route to Flowus-3*

TOM 1: So....SARA....Tell me...Why bring back me and TOM 2 when you could've just had an army of TOM 3s?

SARA: Well...if you would like to know...I suppose I should tell you then...


Episode 2: Ignition


SARA: I had thought of doing that, but to be honest...it would've complicated things...If I would've shouted out "TOM 3!" or just "TOM!", they'd all respond, there'd be no way I'd be able to call them out individually, and I've always preferred to number every new model instead of every single copy. Either way, I didn't have the resources to build an entire army of TOM 3s.

TOM 3: I guess that makes sense...Though still a shame we couldn't get more muscle for this kinda job...But then again, TOM 4 is a shrimp, he should'nt be a problem.

SARA: I...wouldn't say that...

TOM 1: Lemme guess...he's stronger than we're led on?

SARA: Precisely

TOM 2: So any other reason TOM 1 and I were brought back?

SARA: Well, aside from keeping you two as bits of nostalgia, you were all outfitted with tasks that were outfitted for each of your body structures...TOM 1, no offense, but with the size of your head and the speeches you used to give, you seemed best as the intelligence portion of the team. However, you were'nt exactly built for combat... Which is why your memories go up until the Intruder incident when you were eaten alive...

TOM 1: You're telling me I've got a big head?? Aw man, and here I was complaining about this belly...

SARA: TOM 2, you were built in response to TOM 1's lack of manueverability, after doing away with the Intruder, you helped serve Toonami for a good while and your agility proved useful...Even got us through the Lockdown event that had us being pulled toward that mysterious ship and even the Hyperspace incident when I was infected by that virus...Though eventually your luck ran out when we encountered a space pirate named Orcelot Rex as he kidnapped me, severely damaged the Absolution and destroyed your body...Your memories stopped there though.

TOM 2: So I'm the speed and flight part of the team...can't complain with that.

SARA: ...And finally TOM 3...You were a unique case as I didn't personally remodel you, TOM 2's shattered remains and memories were picked up by Orcelot Rex's locals and rebuilt you to be more muscular...Though ironically, you defeated Rex by jamming a fork into his forehead...But we didn't leave empty-handed, the locals had given us a new Absolution as their thanks for doing away with their tyrannical leader...It was then I was also able to bring myself out as a holographic image to assist TOM 3 whenever he needed an extra hand...

TOM 3: Heh, so I'm the muscle of the group...sounds like a balanced team than just having pure muscle.

TOM 1: .....SARA...You're thinking about TOM 4, are'nt you?

SARA: I'm sorry...TOM 3 was doing an excellent job, he really did...Just...I feel foolish letting my desire for having a TOM with facial expressions consume me...It was my own folly I had allowed all this to happen...I shut down TOM 3 and put him into storage after transferring the memories from all three of you into TOM 4...I'm assuming the accumulated cockiness affected his personality and...

TOM 2: SARA, it's not your fault...You had no clue, I know we can be cocky, but what TOM 4 did was unforgivable...All we can do is to follow Moltar's orders and take him down...and hopefully get Toonami back on the air!

SARA: Yes...You're right...We can just only hope for the best...
The second episode... I pretty much wanted to establish a Sonic Heroes kind of teamwork the original three TOMs would be.

Do you not remember the virus infecting TOM at the end of the Hyperspace event or did you not have internet access
