that's because you failed to say the magic words to them.
"Repeat after me - You have the right to remain silent."
(Droid either gets it or doesn't, repeat as needed)
"Anything you say can and may be used against you in a court of law"
Droid: dittos...
Droid: "You have the right to remain silent"
"You have a right to a lawyer. If you cannot afford a lawyer,
one will be provided for you"
Droid: dittos...
"OK, so I'm planning to remain silent, and you can
bring me a lawyer if you want to talk more."
Thanks!
