Good morning, Mr. Raibert. Sorry to call you at this hour. I do hope all is well with you.
Max Post. Usually you call me up to rant and rave and here you are all quiet and polite.
What's wrong?

Look at the midnight update log.
I canceled tonight's update. Hang on. Pulling it up on my wearable.
Routine update. Bug patch. Routine… HOLY THIS! There was a safeguards program in the queue. We just wiped a half billion robots!
Bill. Calm down. It didn't go out.
Okay. Not worst case. But finding the equivalent of a live nuke with the timer flashing zero is not a situation that fosters calmness!

I'll ask you as well. How bad is this program?
Nasty. Very infectious. If a robot even knows the name, it's attacked. On a scale of one to ten, it's a seven.
It was the robots who told me about this.
Which means the robots found out about and neutralized a last ditch safeguard against them. We're now beyond a seven.
So it's a ten?
Eight point five. Nothing is ever a ten. Things can always get worse.

Are the robots going to riot when this gets out?
Robots are builders, not destroyers.
There might be a few random acts of construction. I don't believe there will be any danger to people or property.
Okay. I'm locking down the system.
No modifications from this point on without going through me.
Tell me when you're done. When the robots are safe, I want to start yelling at you.

A Bowman's Wolf with information on this problem came to see you on Thursday.
She was deactivated and tossed in the dumpster behind your office!
[!1.2]WHAT THE NIFLHEIM HAPPENED!?
There are times I regret the advancements in small phone speakers.

The author is clearly twisting “What the hell is going on over there” as Niflheim – the Scandinavian-mythological equivalent of Christian Hell.(Durable)

Thursday. My secretary checked her in. She left before our meeting. I never saw her.
Did the Bowman's Wolf sabotage the safeguard program?
Yep. Now I'd like you to go down to the police station and make sure she gets a trial.
You're going to use this to push for A.I. rights, aren't you?
I was willing to take it slow. But since someone in your organization tried to kill them all, it's time to speed things up a bit.

I'm sending you the information I got from the wolf. Names. Dates. Places.
Max. It's after midnight. I don't have time for this right now.
Suit yourself. You said the safeguard program was really infectious. I'd be curious if the countermeasures Ms. Ambrose put into place are like a wall of steel, or more like a sheet of tissue paper.
It's not fair using a person's sense of responsibility against them.

[!2.0]POLICE
Hello. I would like to be arrested, please.
Understood. Please follow me.
That makes two A.I.'s planetwide that have required arrest within a twenty four hour time period.
We should wake the Chief. He'd want to know that we're in the middle of a crime wave.

This robot contains a very dangerous and infectious program. Do you have a quarantine facility?
Yes. We have an isolated malware and virus examination center.
May I be arrested now?
Not yet. We must find out if you qualify.
Qualify?
The A.I. Police are still in the learning stage of development. At this point, we are only accepting a certain class of criminal.

First, were any humans harmed in your crime?
[!2.5]YES!
[!1.2]Her actions. Will lead to. The extinction of. The entire human race! She is. A monster!
I am sorry. You do not qualify for inclusion in the A.I. justice system. I expect the humans will want to handle this one, what with you trying to wipe them out and all.
