    Summary

    In which the Corporation Rim uses UCC Article 9 for secured transactions, Murderbot is, legally speaking, a piece of equipment, and as good as Pin-Lee is, the PreservationAux survey couldn’t get out of a binding security agreement when they purchased a used SecUnit from the Company.

    The law said even a simple, firm refusal could invalidate a repossession. But what if the firm refusal came from the collateral itself?

    Summary

    Staying online that long and bored made the flashbacks worse. Yes, I’d come to the conclusion that any memory previous to my rebuild couldn’t be trusted. This was fine. I wasn’t mourning my old reality.

    Summary

    The humans were chattering happily, someone mentioned snacks, lah-di-dah, just another boring workday poking around a rogue SecUnit’s brain. (I wish they’d handle this with a little more gravitas. Like, my life and freedom were ending here, could you show a little respect? I know that’s too much to ask, but still.)

    I didn’t know what the fuck they were about to do to me, but I bet it was going to start with reactivating my governor module and end with me wishing I was dead a thousand times over.

    Throwback to where it all began: a rampaging rogue SecUnit on the docks of TranRollinHyfa has been captured and taken in for study.
