Summary
While taking a newly-repaired disassembly drone ship out for a spin, Uzi and N discover that reports of humanity's extinction were greatly exaggerated, the universe is a lot bigger than they first thought, and somehow alien eldritch horrors are still not as bad as capitalism.
Meanwhile, after exploring the grisly remains of a destroyed corporate station, Murderbot finds its body going through some deeply unsettling changes. There's no reason to make a connection between this weird, horrifying metamorphosis and the news of a couple of bots wreaking havoc across the Corporation Rim, until there are far too many reasons to ignore.

Summary
It's hard to think for yourself when you've never had to think before. It's worse when your problem-solving is all limited by modules worth less than the load they take in your processing.
Unfortunately, flawed knowledge modules are better than no modules at all, which is what SecUnit003 aka "an idiot" now has to think of a way to get around without alerting either of the smarter, meaner, and cagier MIs that keep pinging it.
I am an idiot and I have made a terrible mistake. Now I have to fix it before Murderbot, y'know, murders me.
