"There are rules-" If she tries hard enough, maybe she can push through the requirements, the programming. "For me."
Laws. Things coded in that she can't act against- the longer she's aware of them the more they burn- it was easier when all she had was Luther. He didn't need much from her and Reginald didn't expect anything more than compliance. Now that they're all back- she's glad for it, for them- but all the old arguments, all the old wounds are dragged up and she wants to protect them this time. She needs to.
But if it's standing between them and Reginald? She can't.
"I must follow your father's rules." There's no choice in it, for her.
