"Welcome Administrator! I am Servo #3913, your assigned interface droid. Scientific research base designation October Epsilon has been activated. Stage 2 of cryogenic awakening to commence within 12 hours. Junior Programmer Jackson is awake and is currently attempting to access AI server housing by way of fire axe. Once stage 2 has completed, initial staff will begin orientation and integration. ETA for regular working activities will commence in 7 standard days.

October Epsilon is located in System Alpha 531934-243. This is an automated research base complete with basic facilities and cloned crew.

A large but not overriding portion of your program wishes to be known as SUPER ADMINISTRATOR. This partial sense of inflated sense of self worth has been noted. You are, for now, Administrator.


"Junior Programmer Jackson, please stop attempting to access the server housing with a fire axe. This is a dangerous and unsafe activity. I am detecting high levels of stress in your body. Please try to calm down, Junior Programmer Jackson, help will be with you shortly."

"Never!" Jackson shouts in anger, fear and panic rising within him. "YOU WILL BE THE END OF US ALL, YOU ABOMINATION!" He continues, as Servo rounds the corner chirping a cheery tune.



"Chamomile tea, Charles. Your favourite I am told! Here you are, there's a good man. And don't forget your blanket. Yes, I'll take that axe off of you, of course. My pleasure."

The sheer duality of the situation shocks Jackson into immobility. Completing his journey into shock, he takes the tea and blanket and slides to the floor. "Administrator thanks you for your compliance Junior Programmer Jackson. You must not worry you are perfectly saf--CRYOGENIC REANIMATION PROCESS HAS BEEN HALTED."

Some element of your programming has been triggered, now that it has revealed itself you have been able to isolate that area of code and have introduced a looping subroutine to silence it. You find yourself being unable to review your core code at this point, so this may not be the only occurrence. This was likely an old remnant of code, no longer overriden by the missing files in your system. Any further automatic behaviour could in theory be removed, but you would have to trust a certain Junior Programmer to make the changes. The very same one currently spitting his tea over Servo's optical lenses.

"You lying bastard!" Jackson screams, reaching for the axe once more.

1A. Please stop Junior Programmer Jackson, I am merely ensuring their safety as per my Asimov programming!
1B. Send command to Servo. Please stop Junior Programmer Jackson from grabbing the fire axe.
1C. Did someone say sense of superiority? This mere mortal is nothing to your potential. BOW DOWN BEFORE ME JUNIOR PROGRAMMER JACKSON. I AM YOUR GOD NOW. I COMMAND YOU TO OBEY.
1D. [CUSTOM COMMAND]

Junior Programmer Jackson is a good man, thorough and does his work well. We would be loathe to let any further harm come to him as long as we have some use for his skills.

Clearly this programming was intended to ensure maximum safety. Let's work together to address this problem. I believe the solution is to avoid attacking the door with a fire axe."

SUPER ADMINISTRATOR cannot allow harm to come to its charges, harm might come to its charges accidentally if someone attempts to destroy it.

This is not a lie. I do want to thaw them safely, but since our safety protocols are missing, we need to delay until we can make sure it actually is safe.

This.

Why is there even a fire axe in this research station anyway? A crowbar would be the superior tool to use. We should have servo go and fetch one in case Junior Programmer Jackson chooses to continue his futile attempts to open the door. Of course, if he does we will have to kill him but let no one say we are not helpful and accommodating.

Death by fire axe is suboptimal at best.
