Unidentified Contractors
{{{---BEGIN RECORDED SEGMENT---
Voice #1: Y-y-y-you don't scare us!
Drake: I'm just holding a discussion here. It will be very informative. Let me start. Do you know what this is?
Voice #2: Uh, no?
Drake: It's a Modular Interrogation Contraption, or M.I.C. for short. Made in-house by sadistic PLC clerks, it consists of over three dozen modules, one for each major form of torture. I can put them together any way I wish and run you through it at the touch of a button, creating a customized form of automated agony. Let me demonstrate it for you...
*sound of button click followed by sound of machinery starting up*
Voice #1: Hurk- bluuech!
*sound of vomit splashing on floor*
Drake: Whoops, forgot to clean out that one. Those intestines are always gumming up the gears. I'll wash them out later. Now, who wants to go first?"
Voice #2: "We'll talk, we'll talk!"
*sound of sobbing*

PLC is always known for its efficiency, and its High Programmers are no different. Witness the power of civilian thinking!
The unidentified contractors are unidentified no more. They came from 6 different groups, each with a different purpose:
The League_of_Extraordinary_Dadaists sent agents to retrieve the remains of Flo-U-RID-3 from a XOR-I/Ent_X-Press outlet nearby. Drake-U-LAH-1's further investigation into the LoED presence in his sector led to his insane departure.
The Zero_Teeth_Movement sent agents to Sector LAH to gather up samples from the Zero_Tolerance_Mouthwash_Accident.
- Corpore Metal sent agents to remove asimov chips from bots.
Frankenstein Destroyers sent agents to remove bots, period. The firefights that broke out between the two groups alerted IntSec that not all was as it seemed with the contractors.
Agents from WhirledRON_Energy were sent to sabotage the primary power lines of competing firm KeepuLIT Electricity. They succeeded.
Double-agents from the Pearly_Whites_Tea_Club were sent to recruit (Psion) or exterminate (Anti-Mutant) certain mutants in Sector LAH. Each of them had a list of mutants to recruit/exterminate. I checked the lists, and none of the mutants listed for recruitment were listed for extermination (and vice versa). This is too coincidental; the Pearly Whites Tea Club was used to infiltrate the Secret Societies infiltrating it.
None of the contractors knew who had produced Internal_Security_Order_3367/4-LAH.
They are still being disposed of slowly and painfully.
