I have to say... I'm a bit disappointed with ol' Spookybot, here.
It's taking away all of the implied mysticism and intrigue by painting them as just another branch of organised crime.

Huh. I didn't get an organized crime vibe, more of a secret government dirty tricks squad type vibe.
Of course, there are those who believe that government(s) itself (themselves) is (are) an organized crime syndicate, but that's a whole 'nother discussion... :P
Perfectly Reasonable:
Spookybot wants a friend. And there may be people out there who would be happy to have them as a friend. I'm just trying to figure out who they might be...
Is it cold in here?:
People attracted to danger, people attracted to power, and people hoping the friendship would pay off in some illegitimate way.
EDIT:
How much would a zero-interest loan really help someone like May? She'd still have the stigma of a conviction and still face prejudice against robots. She'd then be faced with making payments on a not-cheap chassis out of minimum wage or not much better.
At least it would solve the credit rating problem and free her from the ball and chain of end-of-life repairs.

It does more often than you probably think. Your brain is just awfully good at adjusting for different colour temperatures and maintaining things at a constant colour appearance. Today's comic looked a bit odd because you wouldn't have noticed the colour change in person unless either you are an artist or creative who is particularly good at noticing that kind of thing, or you take a photo with the camera set for the wrong colour temperature (hence my quip earlier in the thread).
Colour perception is pretty weird.
cybersmurf:
The human perception is full of filters, both voluntary and involuntary (not even talking about which ones you are aware of).
