Tronzler + Clu, moment of freedom

A thousand cycles is a long time. And if Betrayal's anything to go by, Tron was at least as invested in fighting for the (free) system as for the users. Was seeing Flynn really the first event to make Clu's reprogramming slip?
I'd like to see an instance between Tron's initial repurposing and Sam's entry to the grid where Clu's control is broken. Not just Rinzler having a glitchy moment that he then shakes off, but a full on breakthrough. It doesn't have to be complete reversion; if he were completely and utterly himself, Clu ever mindfucking him again would seem pretty damn unlikely. But a significant switch, for more than a moment, and during which he knows who he is and is at least partly in control of himself.
...and then, of course, Clu succeeds in crushing our hopes and dreams reverting him. :P 'Cause canon.
Bonus points: -Somehow avoids being completely depressing. I don't know, maybe Tronzler manages to accomplish something in his brief defiance? Up to filler. -Not split-personality Tronzler; Rinzler as Tron-under-mindwipe

:D *shakes head* Read it, loved it, (and failed to comment :P)... before prompting this. If anything, it probably inspired the desire for more, if along slightly different lines.
