Rogue Protocol The Murderbot Diaries 3 A Novel by Martha Wells Quotes
-
I needed help. I was rattled, I was still leaking a little, and I hadn’t been able to watch any media in what felt like forever.
-
If you bother her again I will break every individual bone in your hand and arm. It will take about an hour
-
I didn’t want to see helpless humans. I’d rather see smart ones rescuing each other.
-
I tuned down my pain sensors and the impact sites faded from explosions down to embers. (I know that’s actually not a permanent solution and pretending bad things aren’t happening is not a great survival strategy in the long run, but there was nothing I could do about it now.)
-
I looked down. I was dripping onto the floor, a mix of blood and fluid. I hate it when I leak.
-
I was tired of pretending to be human. I needed a break.
-
Right, so the only smart way out of this was to kill all of them. I was going to have to take the dumb way out of this.
-
They were all annoying and deeply inadequate humans, but I didn’t want to kill them. Okay, maybe a little.
-
If you had to take care of humans, it was better to take care of small soft ones who were nice to you and thought you were great because you kept preventing them from being murdered.
-
I hate caring about stuff. But apparently once you start, you can’t just stop.

Rogue Protocol The Murderbot Diaries 3 A Novel by Martha Wells Book Summary
Chapter 1: Murderbot embarks on a journey aboard a bot-driven transport. It reminisces about its past interactions with ART and its role as a security consultant. On this transport, Murderbot deals with conflicts between the passengers, intervening to maintain peace. During the trip, Murderbot begins planning its next mission: investigating the GrayCris Corporation’s suspicious activities at a deserted terraforming facility on a planet called Milu.
Chapter 2: Upon reaching the transit station, Murderbot discreetly secures passage on a supply ship bound for Milu. It sneaks aboard, using its skills to remain undetected by the ship’s systems. While onboard, Murderbot gathers information about the planet and the station, which appears to be semi-abandoned. It also discovers that Wilken and Gerth are security consultants heading to the same facility for GoodNightLander Independent.
Chapter 3: Murderbot continues to monitor Wilken and Gerth while they prepare to head to the facility. It discovers that they are heavily armed and likely expecting trouble. Murderbot decides to tag along on their expedition without their knowledge, hacking into the bot Miki’s feed to stay hidden. It reflects on its complicated feelings about its independence and its past as a SecUnit.
Chapter 4: The team, along with Miki, departs for the terraforming facility. Murderbot uses Miki to observe the team’s preparations and scans for any signs of danger at the facility. As the team lands and begins their assessment, they encounter no immediate threats, but the facility is eerily inactive. Murderbot reflects on how it would handle security, criticizing the humans’ typical lack of caution.
Chapter 5: As the team explores the facility, they find minimal signs of damage but realize that the systems are largely inactive. Murderbot uses Miki to communicate with the humans, trying to guide them without revealing its presence. The team faces issues with signal interference, possibly due to the planet’s atmosphere or hidden shielding in the facility.
Chapter 6: The research team continues to investigate the facility, but the absence of active systems raises concerns. While the environment appears stable, there is a sense of unease about the lack of activity and potential hidden dangers. Murderbot stays vigilant, monitoring the situation through Miki as it plans its next move.
