From Episode 4 Season 1
An abbreviated riff of the theme song plays as the Danger Zone logo fades. Justin is in his lab with a large computer called . behind him.
"Boy, we sure had fun at Hightower looking at all that gear. That Marcus sure surprised me by showing up like that.
"I'm sure you guys have lots of questions about how places like Hightower manage to make such incredible tech with no powers. Well, there are three basic types of super tech.
Q-tech is powered by a Nova's quantum. It replicates some of the powers Novas have. For example, this Gauntlet has a Hyperion Beam. It duplicates the Titan Hyperion's signature attack. Now it's not as strong but that's good for me as I can use it."
Danger puts on the glove and points it off-screen the camera pans to a bullseye-themed target disc. The beam charges with a whine of capacitors and fires a white-hot ray that melts the utility hole cover-size disk.
"It's cool but wears me out quick! This sort of tech requires a Nova to power; it just guides the user into shaping their Quantum field in the same manner as the power that it is built to mimic."
Danger waves behind him "PAL. can tell you about the next type."
"Hey! Good to see ya JD! How are you doing today?" The chipper and over-excited computer replied.
"Ugg only Pop-pop calls me JD PAL."
"Yup, that is who told me it would be plenty of fun to do it!"
"Okay, we'll talk about that later. So you need to tell the folks watching about the next form of super tech."
"Right! That is easy JD because I'm a part of it! The Personality ALgorithm-1000 has loads of expensive and complex systems made by mundane electronic engineers. However, without the Heuristic-Systematic core made of a special crystal that allows the formation of quantum pathways that act like synapses? Well, I wouldn't be a Super Computer! Just a normal one!"
Justinius nods "That's right. So while the crystals boost the processing power and aren't used up, each computer like PAL or robots like the K-10 or Officer Guy models wouldn't work. If that Key component fails it is next to impossible for anyone else to fix"
"Good thing I work here in the lab huh JD?"
"Sure shortens the turnaround time for repairs!" Justinius replied.
"You have also worked with the third type haven't you JD." The computer said as a statement more than a question.
"That's right! The last type is really just regular old technology. It is classified as super tech because it took the enhanced mind of a Nova to leap forward. Once created, however, anyone can build and use it."
"That sounds like the easiest for companies to build and use." The computer ventured
"True, and many do. But what Hightower Industries does is push all those categories to their limit. For example, they link PAL 1000 units to a very advanced but regular computer that uses the PAL as a training unit. It teaches more traditional AI computer software and adaptive hardware how to think. This makes the most advanced computing devices on the planet.
They also look for ways to replicate Nova-created materials. Like how to weave eufiber into an alloy to give it greater strength. Also, they work with biological-based Nova to create plants or specialized animals that can produce some of these super materials."
"That sure is handy for Novas who might get bored making the same thing over and over."
"It's more than that, PAL, if an accident or even natural causes took one of these critical Novas from us they'd still be able to make many of the things they pioneered.
Another thing to think about is that it frees those invention-based Nova's to make new things. The more we tread the same ground the less exciting new advancements we uncover."
"Looks like we're low on time JD!" the Computer responded
"Till next time friends and remember safety first! Pull your goggles down when it's time for Danger!"
The screen cuts to a display of names such as the Dadaules League mapping Center and Bhurano Neuropathic Research
"Hightower doesn't work alone. They partner with these companies and nonprofits to bring exciting new technology to you." The computer announces.
The Credits roll.
