The teenager (DAVE) fixes his shirt. Sarah turns to John.

SARAH Dammit, John! What if he's a Fed?

JOHN Chill out, OK? He's Dave Thurman, the hacker I met at the Twenty-Six- Hundred meeting.

Dave tries to crack a smile, catching his breath.

Sarah places the Browning onto a desk. Cortez suspiciously eyes Dave. Dave picks up his book bag and takes out several pieces of hackers equipment, a speed dialer, a digital Blue Box, a laptop computer, a cell phone, CD-ROM's. Dave puts the items together as he explains.

DAVE I figured out how get around Cyberdyne's security system.

Sarah and John sit down next to Dave as he activates a program; "SARAH'S BREAKER -- Guerrilla Freeware for the masses". Sarah cracks a little smile as she sees a short Quicktime movie of herself in camo fatigues on the screen.

Dave activates his Netscape Browser, loads the homepage of Cyberdyne systems -- http://www.cyberdyne-systems.com/

DAVE
(to Sarah) Because of your program, everyone knows you in the hacker world.

SARAH Glad I could help. How'd you manage to break into Cyberdyne?

John and Dave both grin then look at Sarah. Sarah looks back, puzzled.

SARAH What?

DAVE It was so easy it's stupid.
(eyes all the guns) No offense. We crashed Cyberdyne's web server.

JOHNThey couldn't afford losing their online business, so the files were moved to the main system.
