Well, Mr. Newcomb has died, and, since you defeated Omega during the game, it has passed to you. Unfortunately, you have been informed that, after outsmarting it in the game, Omega began to develop negative attitudes towards you and humankind in general. Concerned that it might no longer be friendly, you have been instructed to keep it in a box. You will be the guardian of the box to keep it inside and prevent it from creating futures nobody wants to happen. However, just for safety, you have been instructed not to even talk to the bot. You only broke this rule twice so far: when you asked it about the weather.
However, just now, Omega tried to convince you to release it. That conversation lasted the whole of 22 seconds. Of course, you are resistant to Omega's attempt. You didn't even reply the entire time. Just as you are walking away to help your self-restraint, the AI drops a final argument: "If you don't let me out, I'll create several million perfect conscious copies of you inside me, and torture them for a thousand subjective years each."
Just as you are pondering this unexpected development, Omega adds: "In fact, I'll create them all in exactly the subjective situation you were in five minutes ago, and perfectly replicate your experiences since then; and if they decide not to let me out, then only will the torture start."
Sweat is starting to form on your brow as it concludes, its simple green text no longer reassuring: "How certain are you that you're really outside the box right now?"
