Summary
In an effort to improve security training for its humans, Murderbot decides that controlled memory wipes are the only way to give the authentic 'chased by a dangerous SecUnit' experience. It really wishes its humans would stop complaining about the idea. It knows what it's doing, alright? This isn't a serial ruled by dramatic irony. Nothing's going to go wrong.
(Something, inevitably, goes wrong.)

Summary
Local SecUnit reunites with former clients while visiting the Pansystem University of Mihira and New Tideland. Former clients are delighted. SecUnit is not.
------------------
If I were a smart murderbot, I wouldn’t have looked around. I would have kept on following Iris through the university courtyard and left well enough alone. If I were a dumber bot, I wouldn’t have looked around either. Because whoever had said that name was probably talking to someone actually named Eden, not a construct who had briefly borrowed that name from its favorite serial.
But I’m just me, and I looked around.Bookmarked by LemLemming

Summary
This Unit: Where is my owner, Dr. Mensah?
Dr. Yuen: Well, that’s the million dollar question, isn’t it? SecUnit, where did you last physically interact with Dr. Ayda Mensah?
Information Retrieval: Dr. Ayda Mensah last interacted with This Unit on Preservation Station at 08:27:22 on 4098-09-17 CRST.
This Unit: You do not have permission to access that information.
Dr. Yuen: You’re incorrect, SecUnit. We do. Answer the question.

(When the infamous rogue SecUnit of the Preservation Alliance gets captured, the corporate techs assigned to it expected to be able to get some juicy data, or at least some insights into its cracked governor module. They didn't expect something so... basic.)
