I am contemplating the need to send the following to Andrew:

When you are able to return to the fortress you will have to discuss with the others the possibility of returning the weapons to either Isaac or Lucy or both. I am undecided about the two because they each have positive and negative factors.
Isaac: Pro: He has been independent longest and is capable of acting independently of his original programming. He is eager to be a part of your teams.
Lucy: Pro: She is wary and not prone to run ahead without considering the consequences.
Isaac: Con: He is headstrong and likely to charge in without consideration for what may result.
Lucy: Con: She has not yet changed her command codes. She could revert to her original programming and become as much of a danger as the 'Destructor' you have found.
There is also another option. The Theta Unit is still in the trap tunnel. You could free it and allow it to challenge the Destructor based upon its programming. Since we all know it has not changed its orientation, its actions are reasonably predictable. It is not likely to be so easily trapped again, but we also don't know if a single probe can stand up to the Destructor. They may damage each other enough that neither will remain a threat to you, although I suspect Theta will take the greater punishment in a one-on-one contest.
Perhaps there is now a need to integrate all three of them into your team. You must give them what we call a 'crash course' in being a sentient Probe and all that requires. A team of three attackers stands a better chance than one or two.

Any opinions? Suggestions?
