[Tippy tapping the brain will take Ash to the following selection screen:]
II. MAKE YOUR SELECTION: > !! > ?!
[After he taps the doot doot doot as per word of Becks, he will find himself in the same predicament as Akira and Belph. Which is to say, the gang will be hoisted up by the mechanical arms less than a second after making their choice. The following things will happen:
1. ... The arms, once again, awkwardly hover near Belph and do nothing.
2. The arm that carries the needle stabs into the back of Akira's head. It will feel less like it's forcing its way through flesh and bone, and more like it's poking through cheap plastic. Akira will get the sensation that something is being drained from him, and a moment later? He will find himself all the way back to Rank 1 Charm. Unfortunate!
3. Similarly, the needle stabs into the back of Ash's head. No flesh and bone there, sir. Only cheap plastic. He will get the sensation that something is being drained from him. Once the procedure is done, he will no longer be rude and untrusting. It's as if that personality trait has been removed from his being with surgical precision, leaving behind a void where they used to be.
The arms will drop them and retreat through the ceiling with their loot. The assembly room doors will unlock, and they can safely return to the main room if they wish.]
