That answers a few of her questions (if machines are the enemy, that might be why he resents the term so much), but it raises several more. Rita can see why using androids with advanced intelligence and reasoning skills could be advantageous for the specific roles he described... but when designing something meant to fight in a war, why give it emotions?

But then, she doesn't know what sort of emotional range he really has. Or if there really is some purpose in making androids so human-like...

Those critical thoughts aside, his capabilities actually sound really interesting. "Scanner model, huh...? Sounds like someone like you would be pretty useful for research." She meets his grin with a slight one of her own. "What kind of data can you collect?"
