Greater than him? Jamie's brows disappear into his bangs briefly. Out of everyone he knows, Billy would certainly argue against that statement. And quite vehemently, too. He supposes he could continue to let Sobek think that some greater being was responsible for the gift of the morpher. And that might even be true, indirectly, given Zordon had given Billy his morpher in the first place. But something about that doesn't feel right, and he shakes his head. "No. My friend gave those to me because he thought I would be the best choice to have them. He'd not ever say he was greater than I was, just because he was familiar with them and I wasn't."

That in itself is actually an answer to Sobek's demand as well. Jamie's struggled enough with simple technology - to the point that if he hadn't gotten the encouragement he had from Billy and Kaylee to continue to try, he'd have quit Engineering long ago. And while he can do simple things, and follow directions well enough that he can assist somewhat on some of the more complicated projects, Sobek might as well be asking him to travel to the Moon without the help of the TARDIS.

His heart sinks, just a little, as the implications of what he's about to say sink in. There's no way that what he's about to admit will satisfy the System Lord, and he's afraid that that brief respite from death he's bought the bug crew is only going to be that - brief. Slowly, he shakes his head again, a reluctant admission of his failings. "No. There's nothing like it in my day, not even close. All I'd do if I tried is break the thing."
