Edna immediately went to the foyer, where she met a middle aged man wearing a trenchcoat.
"Goot afternoon Mr. Dickers."
"Hello Edna. I'm here to check up on my client's 'item'. I trust all the modifications have been made?"
"Of course dahlink!" she led him to the testing area.
After pressing a few buttons, a robotic clothing dummy rose in the center of the room, wearing a beautiful evening gown.
"Mr. Dickers, I geev you, the Luxo 5000!"
After pressing a few more buttons, a holographic screen came up, showing a detailed schematic of the gown. "Fully bulletproof, computerized, able to determine proper size and comfort level of the wearer within five seconds of contact, yet extremely lightweight."
three robots entered the testing area. Immediately, they attacked the mannequin. On impulse it started to defend itself, successfully repelling the robots.
"As promised the lexar is able to control the actions of the wearer to defend herself against hostile threats."
After adjusting a few dials, a light fixture dropped from the ceiling, and mini barricades came up from the floor. More robots came from the side and started to attack the mannequin. As before, it was able to defend itself against the attackers, but this time, it seemed mindful of its surroundings, even using the light fixture to avoid an attack.
"As you can see, the Luxo can detect and make full use of its immediate environment in both defense, and battle mode."
Immediately, the suit reacted again, this time, attacking its attackers, destroying all robots in the process.
"It is also able to discern itself into a non hostile environment, once again, seamlessly adapting itself to its surroundings." At this, light music played. More robots came into the testing field, but this time they seemed to sway to the beat of the music. The mannequin, likewise, seemed to copy the effect. Immediately, the music changed from a light waltz to Jazz fare. As the music changed, so did the dance robots, and the Luxo followed suit, from ballroom to disco, to hip-hop. After the demonstration was complete, the mannequin moved back to the center of the room.
"Most impressive Edna." Said Dickers in a neutral tone. "Were you able to incorporate that other feature we had discussed?
At this, Edna looked sorrowful. "I have… but I have… reservations about that last feature."
"I'm afraid it is necessary, especially since there is a chance our agents might be forced into a difficult situation."
"I understand zat dahlink, which is why I insist on incorporating a fail safe, in case they change their mind." She said as she presented him with a small credit card sized item. "Ze feature can be activated by pulling a thread near the waistline. She will have feefteen minutes, and only by pressing the button on that device can deactivate it dahlink."
"I understand perfectly. I'm sure my people will be pretty impressed. I will let them know of of the details when I get back. We should send someone to pick it up tomorrow afternoon.
