Line 19:
* [[Everything Is Online]]: How Sid seems to know so much about Parker, Madison, etc.
* [[Forgotten Fallen Friend]]: {{spoiler|Billy is pretty much forgotten about by Parker after Lindenmeyer clubs him to death rather brutally.}}
* [[Fusion Dance]]: SID's mind is made of several criminals. It is deconstructed though: the several backgrounds and objectives they have makes him a very unstable individual as he changes objectives on the fly.
* [[A God Am I]]: When Sid 6.7 realizes he is back in VR, he screams "YOU'RE IN MY WORLD NOW!!!" and twists the building around in an attempt to kill Barnes.
* [[Gone Horribly Right]]: Sid 6.7 was developed as the perfect training program because the minds of several criminals were amalgamated inside his source code, what would allow cops to better learn how to deal with real criminals. That worked, badly; he is smart as all of them combined and therefore very good at getting away from the police and killing people, and shares the nasty habits of all of them.
* [[Inside a Computer System]]: Where the movie starts.
* [[Kiss Me I Am Virtual]]: Sheila 3.2, Virtual reality sex doll, Sole function is to deduce your psychosexual needs, and fulfill them. Lindenmyer explains to Clyde: "Sheila 3.2 is collecting information from 136 aspects of your physiology. Your heart rate, pupil dilation, vocal intonation, syntax..." Lindenmeyer says she's also very skilled at chess.
Line 44 ⟶ 46:
* [[Too Dumb to Live]]: Lindenmeyer, the creator of Sid 6.7, fools someone into introducing him into the real world. Guess who kills the sucker?
* [[Trademark Favorite Food]]: Glass for Sid 6.7, which he uses to regenerate lost body parts. Goes to ridiculous extremes when he starts eating shards of broken windshield like Halloween candy.
* [[We ARE Struggling Together!]]: SID is one by design: his mind is a crowd of psychopaths fighting for control, making him constantly change objectives and reasoning according to the environment.
* [[Your Mind Makes It Real]]: Not a straight example - the system is designed to train cops in combat situations, similar to the US Army's [[Real Life]] Force XXI program. The problem is that different people worked on different parts of the system - and didn't understand how Lindenmeyer's maniacal AI could abuse it. [[The Dev Team Thinks of Everything|The Dev Team Thought of ALMOST Everything]] - they programmed in non-lethal simulations of being shot, bludgeoned and even ''bitten'' - but when Sid decided to try electrocuting someone, the poor chump's brain overloaded.
{{quote|'''Sid 6.7''': ''Killing for real... It was a real rush.''}}
