Zion found Exiles pushing around Wright Research employees. Pendhurst-Amaranth's Brenda Utley told Zion that if Mauser is gone, the Wright lawsuit against her company would collapse, but rumors of internal troubles at Wright Research are increasing.

The Machines, finding that the Merovingian probably does have the very same "biological interface program" that the intruder, Halborn, was looking for, began a sweep for the program among the Merovingian's Exiles.

The Merovingian began analyzing the program, finding it to be a baffling mix of complex Machine functions and "intuitive" routines. Even exotic analysts such as Ethereal 2 and Madame T. were unable to make headway in their examination of code samples from the program.

Agent Griffin called upon Machine operatives to force a Pluribus Neo member to reconstruct, which would allow a Machine signal scan to obtain information possibly helping them track suspicious EPN ship movements. Operatives chmarr, Pascal, and SamaeI completed the Agent's assignment with great dispatch.

Cypherites led by Cryptos captured the biological interface program from a Merovingian server, but the program somehow transferred itself away from their possession just as the Cypherites were counter-attacked by a lupine force led by Ookami.

Merovingian operatives testing the interface program's responses by attracting it into a simulacrum inadvertently triggered a storm of hostile simulacra, which had to be speedily eliminated.

The Kid and E Pluribus Neo operatives pursued Machine programs seeking the interface program. The EPN operatives eliminated a Machine strike force, but were delayed by Malphas and his blood-drinkers when they made an attempt to hack into the Merovingian servers that the Machines had been attacking.

E Pluribus Neo crews departed for an expedition to the mysterious Machine "no-fly" zone, while EPN and Machine operatives fought over Machine hovercraft communication relays. Pluribus Neo succeeded in hacking one of the two relays, but some Machine hovercraft still managed to track the departing EPN ships, and engage them in battle. Most of the EPN fleet was able to escape from the battle, and continue on their way.
