"If force energy isn't at work here, I don't know what is. There's no way a human, modified or not, could do what he just did." Pulling the human card is just stupid, at least in Zero. Now if it was pulled on a Lightbot, then there'd be issues.

"Guess he had to eventually. And there's your timer," Forte notes the numbers counting down in the corner.
