In 2013 ETS replaced its PRAXIS exams for future teachers with a new, simpler one- the Voight-Kampff test. In the first 5 minutes of testing, over 75 future teachers were revealed -
to be knock-off replicants. The question "A student gives you an apple. It has worms in it. How do you feel?" caused several to go ballistic. Bladerunners were hired by the ETS. -
But it was the Replicants who hired the ETS. The Bladerunners were actually being controlled indirectly by replicants. But the replicants needed the Bladerunners to track down the -
renegade Bluedogs who were refusing to wear collars. They were notoriously fast runners. They transformed themselves into mice and vanished without trace as soon as they were finis -
hed. "I don't believe in mice that vanish without a trace", chortled a rotund Detective Dodo of the Department of Dangers, Big & Small. "Especially if they didn't start out as mice -
but as an arcane pattern of CheezeWiz on a basket of flies. Mice my eye! Show me their hidey holes!" Detective Dodo's boss Captain Grackle set aside the mice-n-rice takeout -
menu and nodded. "You won't find any hidey holes. These aren't mice. They are extraterrestrials. We need a way to destroy their little UFOs." Detective Dodo held up a finger. -
(It was not a very polite finger.) "Screw you and the tiny UFO's you rode in on!" he shouted, startling a waiter into spilling soup onto a customer. Suddenly they heard a terrible -
scream, which made all of them scream, which made everyone in the restaurant scream! The lights flickered &power went down. Breaking glass. A WHOOSH. Two gunshots. More screams. -
The building was set ablaze. Everyone ran for the exit. Outside, rain began to fall.
