Creepy AI: Number 5, an unexpectedly sentient robot
Stephanie (Ally Sheedy) has been Number 5's only friend since he came to life, hiding the robot from the government, who want to dismantle him to see how he works.
She's in the tub when Number 5 makes it to her house after going missing, and Stephanie's overjoyed to see him. But after a string of innocuous observations about the tree branch he's carrying (“disguise, camouflage”) and the fact that she's not wearing clothes (“Stephanie, change color”) he looks her up and down leerily and says “nice software.” If that's not the worst of it, the lurid “mmmmmmmmmmmmm” that comes after certainly is.
