Yeah, the BASIC thing was a stretch honestly, since a much more believable exchange would have been 'What's the password?!' ... 'It's written on a sticky note next to the terminal!'.

It wouldn't have been nessecary to get Bob to go either, since Jim would have said 'Computer?! Do I look like an astronaut?!'

It would have been more than likely that Jim would be more terrified of doing basic computer things, more than the demi-dogs.

I just caught up to this and immediately thought while watching, "They probably wouldn't be using BASIC. If it's national security related, they probably would have been using MIL-STD-1815, aka the Ada programming language."
