According to the director you are to leave the series after a some more
episodes...he said something about the audience demanding more tragic
elements...I don't exactly know what the script says about that, but if =
I
remember correctly it involves Alice saying something like "I'm sorry,
Rich...I'm afraid I can't do that..." and "I know that Jon and you were
planning to disconnect me and I'm afraid that's something I cannot allow =
to
happen..." and you and Jon being electrocuted by a burst of electricity
through a mouse and a keyboard...but I could be mistaken...;->
