Doctor '''{{PAGENAME}}''' was a [[human]] [[scientist]] who oversaw the rehabilitation of [[robot]]s at [[Blueberry House]]. She identified [[sentience]] in robots as being a "severe programming deviancy" caused by a [[computer virus]].


She worked at [[Blueberry House]], where she was in charge of rehabilitating [[robot]]s suffering from "severe programming deviancy". When some of them achieved sentience, she thought it was a [[computer virus]] and was going to reset them to "normal". They broke out of confinement and captured Hastoff. They did not kill her, however, showing mercy as the [[Eighth Doctor]] hoped they would. ([[COMIC]]: ''[[The Autonomy Bug (comic story)|The Autonomy Bug]]'')
When the [[Eighth Doctor]] and [[Izzy Sinclair]] visited Blueberry House posing as official observers sent by [[Professor]] [[Bunty Carstairs]], Hastoff was only interested in explaining her rehabilitation plan to the Doctor and dismissed Izzy to the hospitality suite. She allowed the Doctor to witness her treatment of Drone [[K-479 Delta]] (who called himself [[Simon (The Autonomy Bug)|Simon]]), but when that proved to be ineffective she used her new machine the [[Adjuster]], imported from [[Kallulio Prime]], to purge Simon's circuits in order to remove any trace of individuality. The Doctor soon learned that Izzy had found herself trapped with hundreds of vengeful robots in the congregation room and appealed to Hastoff to save her. Hastoff refused and the Doctor later realised that she had hoped the robots would have killed Izzy so that she would have been able to justify purging all their circuits in one go, however, Izzy managed to survive by befriending the robots.
 
The Doctor opposed Hastoff's methods and as a result she set the Adjuster onto him, but he managed to escape by turning her [[clone]] guards [[Bronson (The Autonomy Bug)|Branson]] and [[Bronson (The Autonomy Bug)|Bronson]] against each other. Hastoff, riding the Adjuster, gave chase and cornered the Doctor on a balcony. Izzy and her newfound friend [[Emperor]] [[Zero (The Autonomy Bug)|Zero]] arrived in time to rescue the Doctor, but following a scuffle the Doctor, Zero, Hastoff and the Adjuster all fell over the side of the balcony and into a moat below. The Adjuster and Zero did not survive, and the other robots rose up against Hastoff and took her hostage. Hastoff attempted to use this as an example that her logic had been correct, but the robots showed mercy and did not kill her. She was later taken away to a psychiatric facility while the machines evolved the world into their home. ([[COMIC]]: ''[[The Autonomy Bug (comic story)|The Autonomy Bug]]'')
