I am a little sad that they didn't include the "babe if they arent answering they might be hurt" like, but I loved that she packed a gift for DeltFall and was so disappointed when Murderbot sent them back to the hopper and she couldn't give it to them 😭😂 I wonder if she planned on giving it to LeeBeeBee or gave her something else as a "we are your friends, you will be fine :)"

One thing episode 7 confirmed for me is that the show's characterization of Arada seems very consistent with her character in the books. She can be decisive and surprisingly calm and even-keeled. She genuinely cares about everyone, and she's somewhat empathetic and notices things about people. But she's also an independent thinker and not overly concerned about others' opinion of her (unlike Ratthi who, bless him, definitely seems to deal with his own "mask of insecurity"). She has good insights some of the time, but she can also be unrealistically optimistic, especially when it comes to imagining other people being cruel or simply not caring about others. She'll jump to defend those she loves but if it involves hurting anyone she might also be sad about it later. Truly the Arada we know and love 💜

maybe, if murderbot had to be really honest, it hurt that the humans celebrated the other Security Unit's death.

it was just doing its job, after all. it didn't have a choice. Did they have to cheer so loud when it was beheaded?

would they cheer if murderbot were beheaded, too?

(I was thinking about this after SE01 EP07)

I did not have "Murderbot blurts random Swedish words while malfunctioning, thus confirming that The Company *is* actually Space IKEA" on my TV show bingo card, but I'm living for it.
