Yeah... I tried to talk to it once and it tried to dominate me. Every play-through since I just blast it as soon as I get within range.
Trying to help it and expecting it to be helpful is like coming across a gaunt, growling, foaming-at-the-mouth dog and saying "I'm sure if I try to pet it nothing bad will happen". (Spoiler, it's going to try to eat your hand!)
