Quinn is off to the biotech hospital…is he not?

Inadvertently the machine turns rogue and opens up all the bad shit the American government has been doing and goes whistle blower.

"The machine knows how to play chess, but do you know how to play chicken?" So that little bit was interesting in terms of taking a risk or a step into the unknown. The unknown seems to be the dilemma and the flip side could be The Machine didn't just know where it's opponent was, it did a zillion calculations (chess)…

Elias and Dominic represent The Machine and Samaritan. Both are smart but one outwits the other when they think they've won. Root and Martine follow a similar pattern.
