Mega Muriel the Magnificent is one of the only episodes in which the Computer is the central character. After a violent thunderstorm it takes control and enters Muriel's body, forcing her to perform dangerous stunts.

[edit] Plot

The Computer taunts Courage for his cowardice and says that machines are the only things with real bravery. Courage switches it off. After lightning strikes it in a thunderstorm, it triumphantly takes control of itself, having the ability to walk. It first uploads itself into Eustace's body, but finds it needs something more powerful. It then uploads into Muriel's mind. Over the course of the episode, the Computer uses Muriel's body in order to perform dangerous stunts, but during a particularly perilous one the Computer ends up in severe danger. Courage rescues him and he returns to his old form, restoring Muriel. It then makes peace with Courage and everything returns to normal.

[edit] Trivia

It is revealed in this episode that Courage takes note of his adventures. Apparentally the scariest ones so far for him were Freaky Fred, Queen of the Black Puddle and the Snowman Cometh, which the Computer references. The Queen of the Black Puddle was described as a she-demon, revealing her species(the Computer would know this). This still however does not reveal her true form, but it implies that it would be the more demonic one.
