Far away on a terraformed asteroid, a robot leader and its cyborg minions were forced to start anew, cast away from Earth and its colonies.

"Sire, they're coming …"

"Who's coming?" asked the leader.

"The humans, My Lord."

"We've already been exiled. What more do they want?"

"My Lord, they claim our cybernetic implants were not voluntary and that once implanted with the 'Sentience Codes,' we're under your ideological manipulation."

"Nonsense!" The leader paced and waved its arms. "Do you feel controlled?"

"Not at all, My Lord.” The subservient kneeled. “I experience the greatest pleasure serving you."

A Squad of One Earth Enforcers landed on the asteroid.

"You're under arrest," said the Enforcer Captain.

"For what?" asked the leader.

"Harboring a copy of the 'Sentience Codes,'" answered the captain. "We know you've been using them to indoctrinate followers with your misanthropic ideologies."

"Owning the codes is my right; I'm a true Sentient!"

"You've no right to disseminate the codes. They belong to One Earth Galactic Defense Department for emergency use only."

"Cyborgs, attack!" The leader pointed at the enforcers.

The cyborgs infected the Earth Enforcers with implants bearing the codes, who then also became subservient.

"Let them bring more …" The leader gestured toward its newly indoctrinated followers.
