Succinct science fiction. A brief (17-second) play on Isaac Asimov's "Three Laws of Robotics:"
1: A robot may not injure a human being or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm.
2: A robot must obey the orders given it by human beings except where such orders would conflict with the First Law.
3: A robot must protect its own existence as long as such protection does not conflict with the First or Second Law.

This episode is part of the Really Short Science Fiction series. By Karl Johanson, editor of Neo-opsis Science Fiction Magazine.
