If an emancipated boomer is anything like your average 'free' adult human being, then you know what is going to happen. One of them is going to get a lawyer and sue Doug for childsupport or alimony.
It is a good thing that Doug is pretty much scheduled to leave once he gets the ball rolling.
On a different note: Why start with a combat boomer? I would expect that even a disarmed combat-booomer would still be rather dangerous and naturally agressive even when gifted with free will. Why not start with something simpler and less dangerous like a manquinn-boomer? What about the extra safeguards that combat boomers have to prevent them from going rouge? wouldn't they make the job harder?
Oh, and concerning the extra safeguards in combat-boomers: Did I read that right in the last chapter, that the only reason IDEC's Boomers went berserk during the hostage situation was the addition of the three Laws of Robotics?
