I am an evil mastermind, but I am also a gentleman (or a gentlebrain, as I have heard many times before), and as a gentleman, I will certainly congratulate Army of (Cl)one on his win and making the finals. As there is not better time than the present, I rolled my brain containment case right up next to him. He was busy working on some business or whatnot I do not know, it was of no concern of mine.
“Ahh!” he yelled. “Don’t sneak up on a guy like that! I coulda shot you.”

“Thanks,” he said warily. “Congratulations on making it to the final yourself.”
“Good luck on the final challenge as well.”
“Yeah,” he looked at me a little cockeyed. At least I am fairly sure that it was cockeyed, it’s hard to tell through that helmet. “Good luck to you, too.”
“Please, please, put yourself at ease. I am just here to congratulate you. We may be evil masterminds and in the middle of a fierce competition, but that doesn’t mean we can’t be gentlemen about it.”
“Yeah, or gentlebrain,” he replied.
“Yes, yes, I have heard that before. Anyway, very nice to see you.” Heh heh, I may be a mastermind, but this clone certainly has a long way to go before he could ever be anywhere near my league.
“Yes,” he replied. “Very nice to see you, too.”
“And I will be going.” I rolled my containment unit back slightly.
“And I will be going as well,” he replied and took a step back.
“Very well. Good day to you, sir.” I slid back another meter.
“And good day to you as well,” he replied as he took another step back.
“Unfortunately, I must get going. I have a doomsday device to make and all.” I slid back a bit more.
“As do I, as do I,” he replied and took another step back.
“So I will be off, then.”
“Me too.”
“Are you going to turn and walk away?”
“Maybe,” he replied suspiciously. “Are you?”
“Of course.”
“Then go ahead.”
“Very well, I shall.” I slid back a bit more.
“And so shall I,” he replied and took a step back.
“Ah, this is foolishness. Of course you are not going to shoot me in the back, I don’t have a back.”
“And you’re not going to shoot me in the back,” he answered. “You can’t carry a gun.”
“Of course.”
“Of course.”
“Well go ahead.”
“No, you go ahead.”
“Very well. Good day to you sir.” I quickly slid out of the room. The door glided closed behind me and I chuckled to myself maniacally. “Heh heh heh. He never suspected what I did to him.”

“Good day to you as well!” I heard him call out through the closed door. I thought that I heard him chuckle maniacally as well. It must have been the door sliding shut.
