** Lightman treats the therapy robots much worse than any employee should be treated. He justifies this mistreatment as being fine due to their lack of sentience, the only thing keeping him from guilt. Therefore, he has incentive in denouncing claims made by robot rights activists and keeping evidence provided by his robots from reaching the public.

''Rhyme and Reason'' is a multimedia webcomic that was created by [[https://juicedoesthings.tumblr.com/ Juicedoesthings]], and co-written by [[https://www.tumblr.com/passioninblue Passioninblue]].

You would see most commonly object heads, anthropomorphic animals, the plantfolk, and more recently, robots. The story follows Team Reason, a group of roommates who have one thing in common: they have been hurt by Rhyme, the "killer robot".
