Yeah, like I said: loyalty chips. Always use them.
You really don't understand the subtler side of things, do you?
[He straightens.] Ok, that's all I can do with my current supplies. It looks like the screws at the shoulder-joint popped out somehow--stripped themselves or unscrewed themselves through use, I don't know--when I get some new ones to replace them, the arm should be usable again. But.
[Jack wags a finger at Ed.] This thing is going to need some major work soon. One of the struts is broken, and several others are getting weak. A number of the still-present screws need to be replaced. One of the plates is cracked. The elbow joint itself might need replacing. Whatever you've been doing with it, stop. At least until someone's done a thorough overhaul of it.
