The
only
thing
that
could
save
them
was
selenium
.
The
only
thing
that
could
get
the
selenium
was
Speedy
.
If
Speedy
did
n't
come
back
,
no
selenium
.
No
selenium
,
no
photo-cell
banks
.
No
photo-banks
--
well
,
death
by
slow
broiling
is
one
of
the
more
unpleasant
ways
of
being
done
in
.
Donovan
rubbed
his
red
mop
of
hair
savagely
and
expressed
himself
with
bitterness
.
"
We
'll
be
the
laughingstock
of
the
System
,
Greg
.
How
can
everything
have
gone
so
wrong
so
soon
?
The
great
team
of
Powell
and
Donovan
is
sent
out
to
Mercury
to
report
on
the
advisability
of
reopening
the
Sunside
Mining
Station
with
modern
techniques
and
robots
and
we
ruin
everything
the
first
day
.
A
purely
routine
job
,
too
.
We
'll
never
live
it
down
.
"
"
We
wo
n't
have
to
,
perhaps
,
"
replied
Powell
,
quietly
.
"
If
we
do
n't
do
something
quickly
,
living
anything
down
--
or
even
just
plain
living
--
will
be
out
of
the
question
.
"
"
Do
n't
be
stupid
!
If
you
feel
funny
about
it
,
Greg
,
I
do
n't
.
It
was
criminal
,
sending
us
out
here
with
only
one
robot
.
And
it
was
your
bright
idea
that
we
could
handle
the
photo-cell
banks
ourselves
.
"
"
Now
you
're
being
unfair
.
It
was
a
mutual
decision
and
you
know
it
.
All
we
needed
was
a
kilogram
of
selenium
,
a
Stillhead
Dielectrode
Plate
and
about
three
hours
'
time
and
there
are
pools
of
pure
selenium
all
over
Sunside
.
MacDougal
's
spectroreflector
spotted
three
for
us
in
five
minutes
,
did
n't
it
?
What
the
devil
!
We
could
n't
have
waited
for
next
conjunction
.
"
"
Well
,
what
are
we
going
to
do
?
Powell
,
you
've
got
an
idea
.
I
know
you
have
,
or
you
would
n't
be
so
calm
.
You
're
no
more
a
hero
than
I
am
.
Go
on
,
spill
it
!
"
"
We
ca
n't
go
after
Speedy
ourselves
,
Mike
-
not
on
the
Sunside
.
Even
the
new
insosuits
are
n't
good
for
more
than
twenty
minutes
in
direct
sunlight
.
But
you
know
the
old
saying
,
'S
et
a
robot
to
catch
a
robot
'
Look
,
Mike
,
maybe
things
are
n't
so
bad
.
We
've
got
six
robots
down
in
the
sublevels
,
that
we
may
be
able
to
use
,
if
they
work
.
If
they
work
.
"
There
was
a
glint
of
sudden
hope
in
Donovan
's
eyes
.
"
You
mean
six
robots
from
the
First
Expedition
.
Are
you
sure
?
They
may
be
subrobotic
machines
.
Ten
years
is
a
long
time
as
far
as
robot-types
are
concerned
,
you
know
.
"
"
No
,
they
're
robots
.
I
've
spent
all
day
with
them
and
I
know
.
They
've
got
positronic
brains
:
primitive
,
of
course
.
"
He
placed
the
map
in
his
pocket
.
"
Let
's
go
down
.
"
The
robots
were
on
the
lowest
sublevel
--
all
six
of
them
surrounded
by
musty
packing
cases
of
uncertain
content
.
They
were
large
,
extremely
so
,
and
even
though
they
were
in
a
sitting
position
on
the
floor
,
legs
straddled
out
before
them
,
their
heads
were
a
good
seven
feet
in
the
air
.
