[He looks troubled when the recording turns on.]
The trial of Rinzler is over. His sentence has been passed and is now being carried out, yet additional punishments are being imposed on the prisoner. He is... damaged. In pain. And no medical aid has been given.
[His lips press together as he grows quiet for a moment. His eyes fall casting a shadow across his face as he struggles to put into words what his mind is still analyzing in millions of threads. There's a disturbing imbalance in the way the synthetic was being treated. But how could he explain what he only knew through thought alone? He struggles with this until he latches onto a single thread of thought.]
... Everyone has limits.
They can travel so far... handle so much before reaching theirs. [His eyes slowly shift up to look back at the recording.] If stairs were 10ft tall no one would climb them. If doors were a thousand pounds heavy no one would open them. If rooms were kept at boiling temperatures no one would use them. Society adjusts all these to meet limits but they are made with the limits of the average person in mind. But on this ship... there is no average. At least, none that makes sense - but we still must adjust. The Cybertronians mobility is limited at times due to their size, and now another incident has arisen. The holding cells have become a torture chamber for the prisoner it's meant to detain.
Rinzler is a sentient being. He is suffering. He is serving his sentence but that sentence doesn't include torture or death. We are obligated to provide his basic needs: medical aid, appropriate nutrients in the form of power to help with recovery, and reasonable temperatures that match his standards not ours.
If there is anyone who can help. Please do so.
Captains.... please take this request into consideration.

I can't help much, but...you're right. I agree. Even if they've done something wrong, no one should be tortured. It's not fair.

[It is a rare thing to look past another's wrong-doings and find empathy for someone who had caused so much harm. His features slowly lose that edge of sadness as he bows his head in acknowledgement of him.]
Thank you. For caring.
no subject
You don't have to thank me. I care about everyone, no matter what they do. It's not right to hurt people just because they did something bad. That'd just make them angrier.
[He speaks from experience. And also happens to be a massive hypocrite at the same time]
no subject
[Even if there was hypocrisy involved.]
Hurting them will not help them reform.
