Murderbot – Season 1 Episode 10 Recap, Review & Ending Explained

The Perimeter Episode 10 of Murderbot begins this finale with Murderbot's system rebooting. It awakens to find itself back at the lab, with Mensah and the other Preservation Society comrades gone. The engineers enact a memory wipe on Murderbot and it seems to have lost everything. What do the engineers do? The engineers then reinstall another module and when it boots up, the Murderbot follows all instructions and appears to be back under company control. Its taken out on Security detail and it doesn't recognize any of the Perseveration Society members. Mensah and the others are actually aboard the same ship and the officials are confused by them asking where Murderbot is. The Company are waving away any form of responsibility for what's happened on the planet, claiming that the Preservation Society have all signed NDAs, so there's not much they can do. However, Gurathin offers to outright buy the SecUnit. When they find out that the unit has had its memory erased though, the group are shocked. Mensah and the others refuse to believe this is the case (except Gurathin, who knows what the Company are like). Where are Murderbot's memories? While the memory isn't lost per-se, it is in a state of limbo. Gurathin explains to the others that the Company are going to sift through the memory files first and see if there's anything there worth salvaging. Corporation Rim obviously don't play fair, and Preservation Society are prepared to fight fire with fire. Trouble is brewing in the area though, as the workers fight for better conditions against the Company. They send out the big guns (see: SecUnits) to hold them off. The officials encourage the SecUnits to 'do some damage' and they certainly get their hands dirty. However, Murderbot's core memories surrounding the mining incident in the past cause it to think twice about firing. How does Gurathin help Murderbot? The rebels take advantage and beat it down to the ground, all whilst Gurathin calls in some favours and gains access to the memories. Despite being encrypted, Gurathin manages to trace the memories back via Sanctuary Moon, which in turn allows him to find Murderbot's core memory files. Gruathin downloads all of the SecUnit's memories, storing them inside his head. Meanwhile, Mensah speaks to the press, informing them of everything that's taken place, and decides she's going to use their SecUnit to help explain everything that's happened. It's thankfully saved from the acid pit, as Gurathin shows and shifts the memories over to our SecUnit, who gets everything back. Preservation Society decide to take Murderbot on and as it's no longer working as a SecUnit, it's free to do whatever it wants. Our Murderbot is a bit directionless though, unsure what to do with its life. How does Murderbot end? Gurathin tells it that the Preservation Society are lovely people and they will help it find the ropes. He also offers to help, but Murderbot decides it needs to check the perimeter. Murderbot leaves the group, instead heading out on a mining convoy. It doesn't know what it wants but right now, it doesn't want anybody to make its decisions for it, heading out to try and find its own purpose. The Episode Review With 6 novellas, a full length novel and some short stories, there's plenty of gas left in the tank for Murderbot, and if this show is anything to go by we could be in for a long-standing pivotal show in Apple's future. This series has been a blast from start to finish, with the only grumble really stemming from the fact we've had to wait every week for a 25 minute slice of comedic drama. Beyond that, this show has been well produced, chock full of memorable moments and somehow managed to make the Preservation Society guys from the books much more interesting and fleshed out in this show. The humour has worked really well throughout, while the constant nods to Sanctuary Moon are a great inclusion. The finale is actually quite bittersweet, especially seeing the way Gurathin and Murderbot patch up their differences after all these episodes. It's a great way of rounding everything out and as Murderbot itself would say, this is one 'premium quality show'. Take a bow Apple, that was an absolute blast! Roll on season 2.
