    Summary

    Last night, Connor said, “There’s a garden in my mind.”

    It takes about an hour to remember come morning. Hank’s in his car, the world tilted because he’s still a little drunk, and the whispered words come floating up through the slush of his hangover. Hank feels such a strong sense of foreboding that he has to pull over into a parking lot. But the memory is amber-hued, whisky-soaked, and Hank can’t remember when, where, or why Connor might have said this, or what he said before or after, or what it possibly could have meant.

    A post-midnight confession to a drunk is the kind of secret that eats a man, that begs to be said aloud yet never acknowledged. And Connor— naive, forthright, young, and painfully transparent when emotions are involved— Connor has this kind of secret.

    Summary

    If RK800 #313 248 317 -51 Designation: “Connor” cannot eliminate the threat that deviant terrorism poses to American homeland security—and, more importantly, the cardiac health of CyberLife's shareholders—it will meet the same fate as its previous fifty iterations. In light of the fact that its only hope is a perpetually-plastered police lieutenant with a disciplinary file longer than Venmurasu, Connor supposes it's fortunate to be a machine incapable of fearing death.

    Unlike the machines that preceded it.

    Summary

    Unemployment was not the best thing to ever happen to Connor, but it was high on the list. The best thing to ever happen to Connor was the sight of a Corgi wearing a small cowboy hat leashed to a post in front of the liquor shop. The second best thing to ever happen to him was the emancipation of his people from slavery and the opening of negotiations for equal rights. But unemployment may come in at a solid third.
