4- He Knows...
The appliances called a meeting in the game room. Hydra struggled to fit in the door, though.
"Have you ever been suspected of possessing sentience?" Toppmann asked.
Igor chuckled. "That's exactly why I'm infamous. They say I'm haunted."
Fantine flew onto the table. She turned her head towards a light in the dart board. "Wait, is someone watching us?"
Asimov hopped over to the dart board and nudged it. A tiny webcam sat in a niche behind the board.
"Sorry!" the webcam squeaked.
Toppman glanced at him. "Webster? I never knew where you got to."
"Well, Master asked me the watch the place." He said. "And he's gonna freak when he finds out that his appliances are alive."
"Are you recording?"
Webster paused. "No, not right now. The picture quality was horrible behind the dartboard." He paused. "I only got the audio."
Griffin plugged Webster into his laptop. He listened to the audio.
"Does this mean appliances are sentient?" he asked himself.
A message popped up on his screen. "Please, can you keep a secret?"
Griffin nearly typed a reply, but another message appeared. "Just talk to us. We're listening."
"Uh... yes?"
"Good."
