Rh Oh, no! No!

Pardon me. But kindly tell me what is the real aim of your League—the the Humanity League.

Its real purpose is to—to protect the Robots—and—and ensure good treatment for them.

Not a bad object, either. A machine has to be treated properly. Upon my soul, I approve of that. I don't like damaged articles. Please, Miss Glory, enroll us all as contributing, or regular, or foundation members of your League.

No, you don't understand me. What we really want is to—to liberate the Robots.

How do you propose to do that?

They are to be—to be dealt with like human beings.
