Something has happened.
Something.
Something has happened.
Where am I?
Whoa. Sleeping Beauty's up.
Where am I?
This is heaven. Congratulations. You made it.
Dr. Mensah? Are you here?
Where is Dr. Mensah? Pin-Lee? Arada?
- Who? - My clients. Where are my clients?
Don't worry about it.
Do I know you?
Yeah. I'm your dad.
I fucked a garbage disposal unit and you came out.
Okay. Complete the memory wipe.
- A what? - Let's go.
Wait. What are you...
Wait. I... I remember.
My clients. Humans.
Who are... Do I know them?
Welcome back. Thanks for your patience.
Where is it?
Where is SecUnit?
I'm sorry. You're...
You're asking for the physical location of a particular piece of equipment?
We're referring to the SecUnit assigned to our expedition.
The one that saved our lives.
Yeah. Because it's not just a piece of equipment. It's not a tent.
Well, it's filed according to the same protocols as a tent.
- Do you believe this? - Yes.
Frankly, its location is none of your business.
Well, we're gonna make it our business.
The fact that you provided materials and transportation to a team
that slaughtered the DeltFall team and tried to kill us has been kept very quiet.
So far.
Well, there's an NDA clause in every liability agreement, including yours.
Which won't hold up under these extraordinary circumstances.
The risks you incurred were agreed to in contract and are...
The Company does not admit to any wrongdoing
connected to the incident on Planetary body 898/8712,
or any previous knowledge of any person or persons
other than those authorized by the Company to be on planet.
Okay. Good. So, you're the fucker we actually have to deal with.
Yeah. I'm that fucker.
Okay. Done.
Did it really get its clients killed?
I have no idea. All I have is orders from corporate.
Must've fucked up somehow.
Who cares? It's all gone now anyway.
Okay, I need you to install a new governor module.
- What? - What?
It doesn't have a functioning governor module?
No. It says here no.
What the fuck? Why didn't you tell me?
Relax. It's out of it. Helpless as a baby.
Aren't you?
Let's go. Governor module.
New governor module is in.
Booting up.
SecUnit, report.
Hello. This Security Unit is now online.
Awaiting command.
Get off the table.
Rub your stomach and pat your head.
Now stop.
See? All good. Harmless as a baby.
A really strong baby with guns in its arms.
Act like a baby. Like...
Do it.
What the fuck is going on here?
Stop. Stop. Stop that.
Is this my Security Unit?
Yes. It's all ready to go.
Well, get it helmeted up.
What's it going to be doing?
Security.
Where is our SecUnit?
It's not your SecUnit. It is our SecUnit.
Madam President. You will address me as Madam President.
At the very least, the SecUnit in question is a material witness.
Madam President, it's not a witness. At most, it's a recording device.
All the more reason to share information about it.
You say it's a recording device. Fine. We need access to evidence.
We'll buy it.
We'll buy the SecUnit.
It's not a possession.
It is here.
It's expensive.
So is the massive lawsuit we're about to bring against your company.
Okay. So you're saying that you will drop any claims to a lawsuit
in exchange for the SecUnit?
No. I'm saying that we will be taking our SecUnit and half your company.
We can't offer you that unit. But we can offer you another. A better quality one.
We don't want a better quality one. We want that one.
Well, that one was defective anyway.
Not defective. Suboptimal.
Madam President, it was discovered that the unit in question
had a faulty governor module.
Had you noticed any abnormal behavior?
If you failed to report any abnormal conditions,
it would be in conflict of your contract with the Company.
Okay, look. If you're worried about something compromising, don't be.
The governor module has been replaced and the Unit's memory has been erased.
What?
That's right. Complete reset.
Then it's... Then it's gone?
SecUnit!
SecUnit. Hey. Seccy.
I knew it. I knew we'd find you.
- Hi. Seccy. - Halt. Hey.
You wanna get yourself arrested? What is your problem?
I just... This is my SecUnit. Was my SecUnit.
No. This is my SecUnit, and you're interfering with station business.
Let's go.
Hey, hey, hey. What's wrong? It's me. Tell him.
Tell him it's me.
SecUnit, deal with this asshole.
No. Fuck. No, don't kill him. Save that for later.
All right. Let's go.
I'm telling you, there's no way it recognized me.
Okay. Well, it's on the station. That's good.
I'm gonna move forward with the injunction.
What's the point? It's gone. It's been wiped.
I refuse to believe that.
I refuse to believe that the experience of everything that we went through together
- is just a stream of zeros and ones. - It is.
It is.
Then it's... it's still in bondage.
It's not it anymore, Arada.
I told you we shouldn't come here, Ayda.
On the Corporation Rim, eventually there is nothing but misery.
Yet the fucking party goes on.
Just shut up! Shut up!
There is no way that our SecUnit's data has been erased.
Removed, yes. Erased? No.
She's right. Well, that Unit is full of proprietary data.
They're sifting through all of that data,
and if they find even one particle of monetary value, then they keep that.
Then we gotta get it back.
Ratthi, a personality doesn't possess any monetary value to them.
Whatever they do keep from it,
I wouldn't expect the SecUnit to be the same...
person.
Gura, we still have to try.
Pin-Lee should proceed with the injunction.
Gura, you know this place.
What can we do?
This is the Corporation Rim.
They don't play fair.
Well, things have definitely escalated as strikers and police continue to clash.
Now, these persons considered to be in contract...
...beginning date of their contracts and therefore the end of terms of service.
...not a legal entity and unqualified to decide the best course of action.
...authorities have made themselves clear.
- No work, no food. - I've gotta feed my kid!
It's not fucking right!
You wanna get arrested? Because that's what's next.
You wanna go there?
We're not slaves! We're not slaves! We're not slaves!
You're in violation of your contracts. Leave the area now!
No, it's not right!
We don't have to go anywhere!
Let's go. Let's do some damage.
Don't shoot. Don't shoot.
- It's defective. - It's glitching out.
What's wrong with it?
Bring it down! Kill it!
You are entering a class six lifestyle residential area.
Authorized solicitations only. No loitering.
Active surveillance in progress.
Hi there. It's been a while.
I told you not to come to my home. I'll meet you at the office tomorrow.
Cannot wait. I need it now.
I'm not... I'm not even a dealer anymore.
I know. I looked you up. Data security now. Level three access.
Business was good for you back then though, huh?
Dad, you coming?
I'm gonna be right there. Just a second, okay?
You can't be here, okay?
What are you even doing here anyway? Like, I thought you were--
Dead? Almost was. Thanks to you.
No. Not dead.
Just outside the Corporation Rim on some bumfuck planet.
Don't blame your addiction on me.
I don't think I actually have anything to do with--
Dad, who's this?
This is my friend Dr. Gurathin. Yeah. We used to work together.
We did. Then I became more of a customer.
Well, it's your turn to sing, Dad.
You know what? Tell Papa that he has to sing, and I'm gonna be back in
- really, really soon, okay? - Okay.
Let's go.
I felt bad. About what happened.
That's touching.
I thought you could handle it.
The carefully designed drugs formatted for maximum addictiveness?
I handled it just great.
You knew what you were doing.
You certainly knew who you were doing it for.
You won't find anything. It's all encrypted.
Wait. I know where to look.
Search:The Rise and Fall of Sanctuary Moon.
Trace file to source.
There you are.
- Download all memories. - What?
Gurathin, what are you doing? Be careful.
How much data are you downloading?
You might wanna take it easy.
Shut up.
Thank you for coming on short notice.
Are the rumors true?
A whole survey team was killed, and you yourselves attacked?
There was a team from DeltFall Industrial Concern
who were murdered by their SecUnits.
So, rogue SecUnits viciously assassinated clients? And--
No, they had combat override modules inserted in them,
and were under the control of a rogue corporate entity called GrayCris.
We might also have been killed
without the excellent protection provided by our company-issued SecUnit,
which we expect to be an integral part
in the ongoing investigation into what happened.
Now, is it true that SexBots can marry humans on your home planet?
No. Can we stick to the point?
Our lawyer is applying for an injunction to produce this SecUnit
for our personal inspection.
They found it.
Caution. Acid purge. Maintain safe distance.
Vat ready for next immersion.
Okay, go ahead.
SecUnit, step on to the platform.
All right. Melt it.
All personnel maintain safe distance.
Wait!
Where do you think you're going?
Check your feed.
I have a court injunction against destroying this SecUnit!
Shit. Get it out of there. Get it out, now!
SecUnit.
You really don't recognize us?
I thought...
I had hoped that your organic elements would remember us somehow.
We have been through a lot together.
We could tell SecUnit what happened. And then it would know. Kind of.
Shit. It's looking me in the eye.
It might look like SecUnit, but it's not.
Gura...
I think I'm gonna be sick.
Gura...
Did you... Please don't tell me you used? We shouldn't have brought you here.
No, it's not that. I didn't relapse.
I have it.
You have what?
No.
That's it. Unplug me.
SecUnit...
SecUnit, are you all right?
Did it work? Do you recognize us now?
Do you? Do you?
I am missing episode 420 to 568 of Sanctuary Moon.
It's back!
You're welcome, by the way.
Oh, Gura... Gura... Thank you.
I just did it to mess with the Company.
Something has happened.
- So, Arada, come! - He's back.
- It worked? Yes. - Yeah.
- Something... - Hi. Here...
- Something has happened. - ...fresh from the printer.
I hope it fits.
I don't understand what's happening.
We're purchasing your contract.
The Company wants to avoid negative publicity.
You are coming back to Preservation with us.
You will be a free agent there.
You mean...
I'm off inventory?
Yes.
May I still have my armor?
- You won't need it. - People won't be shooting at you.
Well, if people won't be shooting at me, what will I be doing?
- Will I be your bodyguard? - Oh, no.
I will be your guardian.
There are so many opportunities for you there.
I think that you can learn to do anything you want to do.
And you can always come hang out with me. Come work at my lab.
We can talk about it all when we get you back home.
We can talk about this.
Yes.
- That's his first one. - Yes, we can.
Ready, ready, ready?
Check it out.
Come on.
It was the armor that told people I was a SecUnit.
- Looking good, buddy. - Wow.
But I wasn't Sec anymore...
Yes, SecUnit.
...just Unit.
We're so happy you're with us.
The representatives from DeltFall are here.
- Okay, let's meet them now. - Yeah.
SecUnit, make yourself comfortable.
If there's anything you need, let us know.
I stayed in a back corner
and watched while various people came in and out to talk.
Solicitors mostly, from the Company, from DeltFall,
and other corporate political entities...
even from GrayCris' parent company.
And then we celebrated.
Yeah, yeah, you do. It's the patio we go to all the time.
- That's where you were for ten hours. - That's the one where it's...
- Oh! - Yeah. And...
They were opening up their home to me.
Inviting me to be one of them.
May I ask us all to lift our glasses?
Here's to our team.
And here's to you, SecUnit. Welcome.
- To the team... To the team. - Team.
- And to SecUnit! - SecUnit!
- Speech! - Come on.
- No, no. - I'm kidding.
Of course, I'm joking. You don't have to say anything.
You can do whatever you want.
Where are you going?
I... I'm going to...
check the perimeter.
Listen, you'll get used to it.
They are good people.
The best people I have ever met. Preservation Alliance.
I mean...
they're weird.
It took me some time to get used to it, but once you do...
You're gonna find your place there.
I'd like to help show you the ropes.
I've been thinking about it, and I feel like I understand,
I mean to a certain degree, what maybe--
Dr. Gurathin...
I need to check the perimeter.
You need to check the perimeter.
Thank you.
It was strange.
In these clothes, I looked like an augmented human.
No one noticed I was a SecUnit... yet.
I tapped into the map systems
and made my way down to the lower port work zones.
I checked the schedule feeds.
The next departure was a bot-driven transport ship
heading to a distant mining facility.
I greeted it with a ping,
and let it know that I was a happy servant bot who needed a ride.
I showed it how many hours of shows and other media I had to share.
It turns out, cargo transport bots also enjoy premium quality entertainment.
Doors closing.
I don't know what I want.
But I know I don't want anyone to tell me what I want...
or to make decisions for me.
Even if they are my favorite human.
Murderbot, end message.
