00:00:00Now remember, you're here because of me, so don't go embarrassing me now.
00:00:18Michael!
00:00:19It's been a while, hasn't it?
00:00:22You're very sexy.
00:00:24So, are you going to come over tonight?
00:00:26Oh, yeah.
00:00:27Who is she?
00:00:29Oh, it's just my girlfriend.
00:00:32She can watch us.
00:00:34Okay.
00:00:39I think you're forgetting your place, Anne.
00:00:42Remember, if you don't behave yourself, I can still have James terminated.
00:00:53James?
00:00:54Darling?
00:00:56Yes?
00:00:58Would you like me to get you a drink?
00:01:00James?
00:01:03Excuse me.
00:01:04Do I know you?
00:01:08James?
00:01:09Who's this?
00:01:11I'm not sure.
00:01:12What's happening?
00:01:14Excuse me, miss.
00:01:15This is very inappropriate.
00:01:17I don't know you.
00:01:18And I already have a girlfriend.
00:01:20Get your hands off of him!
00:01:22Who invited this woman to this party anyways?
00:01:25That's my girlfriend.
00:01:28Let go of him. Stop embarrassing me.
00:01:31Well, well, well. Isn't it the infamous Michael Heston?
00:01:36Why am I not surprised?
00:01:38You seem to always pick up strays.
00:01:40And you always lower the bar.
00:01:43Humans aren't good enough for you now?
00:01:47I know your boyfriend's a robot.
00:01:49Oh, don't worry. I won't say a word.
00:01:52Just keep your mouth shut.
00:01:54What?
00:01:57False alarm?
00:01:59My girlfriend seems to be mixing this person up with someone else.
00:02:03Come on.
00:02:05James.
00:02:06Let's go.
00:02:07Please, James.
00:02:14What is this? Some sort of melodrama?
00:02:17It's so fucking ridiculous. James, let's go.
00:02:25I'm sorry, dear. I left something in the house.
00:02:28I thought robots remember everything.
00:02:31To make us more human, they make us imperfect.
00:02:34Because...
00:02:36Imperfection makes perfection.
00:02:38Imperfection makes perfection.
00:02:42What's wrong?
00:02:44Nothing.
00:02:45Perhaps just a slight malfunction.
00:02:47Ugh, it just keeps on and on.
00:02:49I don't know what to do.
00:02:51Perhaps just a slight malfunction.
00:02:53Ugh, it just keeps on and on.
00:02:56And they say you're the perfect model.
00:02:59I'm sorry.
00:03:00But I'm alright now.
00:03:01I'll be right back.
00:03:07Bitch.
00:03:10You made me a laughingstock.
00:03:12You promised me you wouldn't erase his memory.
00:03:14I promised that I wouldn't have him terminated.
00:03:17I never said anything about not erasing his memory.
00:03:21Well, he's not going to remember you anymore.
00:03:24Come on.
00:03:25No, not anymore, you lying piece of shit.
00:03:30How dare you.
00:03:33You bitch.
00:03:37That's enough.
00:03:44Back off.
00:03:46Or I'll call the police.
00:03:47You still remember me?
00:03:49No.
00:03:51I just don't like seeing a man lay his hands on a woman.
00:03:54I said back off.
00:03:57You're gonna regret this.
00:04:02Take care, miss.
00:04:03What do you think you're doing?
00:04:07Who gave you permission to help another girl?
00:04:09I apologize, Samantha.
00:04:11Were you flirting with her?
00:04:14That is unacceptable.
00:04:16Of course not.
00:04:17I'm yours.
00:04:18And only yours.
00:04:19How do you prove it?
00:04:22Whatever you want me to do.
00:04:26Who?
00:04:28Jump off that balcony.
00:04:30Then I'll believe you.
00:04:32Of course.
00:04:36James?
00:04:43James, no! Please don't do this!
00:04:46I have to follow my girlfriend's orders.
00:04:49No, James, stop!
00:04:50Why would you ask him to do this?
00:04:52You know he has to follow the orders of his owner.
00:04:54You may be a robot, but you have feelings.
00:04:57You have worth.
00:04:58You're more human than human.
00:05:00You're...
00:05:01Human than human.
00:05:02How do you know he's a robot?
00:05:04I was James' last owner.
00:05:06His ex-girlfriend.
00:05:08They fucking sold me a used one?
00:05:11Oh, they're gonna get in so much trouble!
00:05:13James, come on, now!
00:05:17James!
00:05:20I have to follow my girlfriend's orders.
00:05:29I'm coming!
00:05:38What the...
00:05:43Good morning, birthday girl.
00:05:45You delivered a dead guy to me!
00:05:47Oh my god, he's not breathing!
00:05:49Did he die during transportation?
00:05:50Oh my god, oh my god, we're gonna be in so much trouble!
00:05:52He's not a real person.
00:05:54My friend has this company and they're testing out their newest AI boyfriend product.
00:05:58I thought you could use company, you know?
00:05:59It's been a while since you dated anyone.
00:06:01Wait, wait.
00:06:02You signed me up for a robot boyfriend?
00:06:05Just give it a chance.
00:06:06You might actually like him.
00:06:08Right.
00:06:09Like I'd ever have a robot be my boyfriend.
00:06:11No.
00:06:12I'm returning it.
00:06:18What?
00:06:21What's your name, beautiful?
00:06:27Um...
00:06:29Oh, just put me down!
00:06:30Jesus Christ, what's wrong with you?
00:06:35Um...
00:06:36God, no.
00:06:37I can't be tempted.
00:06:40Where is the switch?
00:06:43For what?
00:06:44Where is the switch?
00:06:47I feel the strength in my arms.
00:06:51I can see the color around me.
00:06:55James, what if we could put that strength to good use?
00:07:04Follow me, James Alta.
00:07:11This is your chance to put that strength to good use.
00:07:14Help me clean up this mess.
00:07:16Easy peasy.
00:07:18An alpha male like me can make anything happen.
00:07:22Girlfriend.
00:07:25I'm not your girlfriend, nor your woman.
00:07:28Just...
00:07:30Just...
00:07:31Get to work.
00:07:40What are you doing?
00:07:42I thought you were going to make it clean.
00:07:44Why is it even worse?
00:07:46Well, actually, cleaning isn't included in my factory settings, but...
00:07:50Cleaning's not important.
00:07:53As an alpha male type, let me show you how I take charge.
00:08:02You know what?
00:08:04I wish the word no was included in your factory settings.
00:08:08Stop trying to kiss me.
00:08:09Stop trying to carry me in your arms if you know what.
00:08:12Just stay away from me.
00:08:14Your loss.
00:08:15But don't worry.
00:08:17I'll be ready for our next fairytale moment.
00:08:19You know what?
00:08:21I think it's time to teach the CEO how to clean.
00:08:43You did a good job.
00:08:45I'm glad that I can spoil you.
00:08:47I didn't ask you to spoil me.
00:08:49You're just doing your job as part of the household.
00:08:51Which is...
00:08:53Being a masculine and dominant CEO of this...
00:08:56Tiny apartment.
00:08:59I won't let my woman...
00:09:01I won't let you down.
00:09:05Just...
00:09:06Don't talk to me for the next few hours.
00:09:09Okay?
00:09:12Yeah.
00:09:36What are you doing?
00:09:37To keep you company.
00:09:43No.
00:09:44This isn't right.
00:09:46Come on, Anne.
00:09:49Let me show you just how I care for you.
00:09:52No, no. I want real love.
00:09:54Not some sex service from a robot.
00:09:57But I do love you, Anne.
00:09:58Love me? You don't even know me.
00:10:00You're Anne Hill.
00:10:01Twenty-eight.
00:10:02The only daughter of Danny and Amanda Hill.
00:10:04You went to UCLA.
00:10:05You majored in English Literature.
00:10:07Your cholesterol is a little bit high and...
00:10:09Not these, James.
00:10:10Not these, James.
00:10:11The real me.
00:10:13You're programmed to love me, but that's not real love.
00:10:16It is real love.
00:10:19You're just a robot.
00:10:20You wouldn't know.
00:10:24Sorry, I didn't mean to...
00:10:25No.
00:10:26You're just a robot without a heart.
00:10:28You're just stating a fact.
00:10:31I need to apologize.
00:10:34Here.
00:10:37Sex service function for my own sanity.
00:10:40I'm going to turn it off.
00:10:45I'll be in the living room, Anne Hill.
00:10:55I've read your newest novel, and it's good, but...
00:11:00But what?
00:11:01You've been having dry spells, haven't you?
00:11:03You've got to get yourself out there.
00:11:05To get inspired.
00:11:07Guess what?
00:11:08My friend Dustin is visiting me today.
00:11:10Lillian, I'm not into blind dates or setups.
00:11:13You two would hit it off.
00:11:15Hi.
00:11:16I'm Dustin.
00:11:18Nice to meet you.
00:11:20Anne.
00:11:21Nice to meet you, too.
00:11:23I'll leave you two to it.
00:11:30I must say, it was a pleasant surprise.
00:11:32Do you want to exchange contact info?
00:11:34Sure.
00:11:35Just put your number in.
00:11:42She in?
00:11:44Time to go.
00:11:45James!
00:11:47Catch got away just like that.
00:11:54James!
00:11:56Put me down!
00:11:59What the hell, James?
00:12:00How did you even know I was here?
00:12:01I don't want you talking to that guy again.
00:12:03Wait, have you been following me?
00:12:05Anne, please, just listen.
00:12:06I didn't want to...
00:12:07No, James.
00:12:08I'm done listening to you.
00:12:10You have no right to follow me, let alone tell me who I can and can't see.
00:12:13But I'm your boyfriend.
00:12:15I'm also a dominant CEO type, and it's my responsibility to protect you.
00:12:18You said that you're not!
00:12:20I only kept you to help me with household chores.
00:12:22Nothing more.
00:12:24You're all so far from a CEO.
00:12:26How many businesses have you run?
00:12:29James.
00:12:30James.
00:12:32If you keep doing stuff like this, I'll have no choice but to return you to the factory.
00:12:38Let's just go home.
00:13:00I'm sorry.
00:13:01I'm sorry.
00:13:02I'm sorry.
00:13:03I'm sorry.
00:13:04I'm sorry.
00:13:05I'm sorry.
00:13:06I'm sorry.
00:13:07I'm sorry.
00:13:08I'm sorry.
00:13:09I'm sorry.
00:13:10I'm sorry.
00:13:11I'm sorry.
00:13:12I'm sorry.
00:13:13I'm sorry.
00:13:14I'm sorry.
00:13:15I'm sorry.
00:13:16I'm sorry.
00:13:17I'm sorry.
00:13:18I'm sorry.
00:13:19I'm sorry.
00:13:20I'm sorry.
00:13:21I'm sorry.
00:13:22I'm sorry.
00:13:23I'm sorry.
00:13:24I'm sorry.
00:13:25I'm sorry.
00:13:26I'm sorry.
00:13:27I'm sorry.
00:13:28I'm sorry.
00:13:30The number you dialed is not a working number.
00:13:33Please check the number and dial again.
00:13:36I can't fully understand human emotions yet, but you seem to have something on your mind.
00:13:42Dustin blocked me.
00:13:44Well, I just told him not to contact you.
00:13:46I didn't think he'd block you.
00:13:48You what?
00:13:50James, I told you not to interfere with my life.
00:13:53That's it.
00:13:54I'm returning you to the factory.
00:13:55No, but I was just trying to help.
00:13:56Well, I'm finding the remote that came with the box.
00:13:58Just, just a little.
00:14:05What's this?
00:14:07I checked Dustin's records and his online trace.
00:14:10He takes nude photos of his dates and he puts them on the dark web.
00:14:14That's why I didn't want you to talk to him.
00:14:16Great.
00:14:17So the only guy I hit it off with in years turns out to be a pervert.
00:14:21I don't understand.
00:14:23You dodged a bullet.
00:14:26Why do you look so sad?
00:14:28Did I upset you?
00:14:30No, James, it's not your fault.
00:14:33I guess I just have terrible luck with men.
00:14:37There goes my day.
00:14:41I was designed to make you feel better.
00:14:45Would you like it if I took you on a date instead?
00:14:48Not as a boyfriend.
00:14:50Just as a friend.
00:14:53You know what?
00:14:55Fuck it.
00:14:56Let's do it.
00:14:58Let's do it.
00:15:06Yeah.
00:15:10That's nice.
00:15:13Shall we?
00:15:25Hi, welcome.
00:15:26Can I get you started with anything?
00:15:28Oh, I'm still looking at the menu.
00:15:30Gotcha.
00:15:31It's our first time here.
00:15:32Of course.
00:15:33Yeah.
00:15:35Not everyone can afford to dine here.
00:15:37You guys do know that it is $1,000 minimum consumption?
00:15:41$1,000 per person?
00:15:43That's crazy.
00:15:45Perhaps we should go.
00:15:47Well, perhaps you shouldn't have come here in the first place.
00:15:49$1,000.
00:15:51Yeah.
00:15:53Easy peasy.
00:15:57We'll have the caviar appetizer to start,
00:15:59followed by the Wagyu steak with the truffled mashed potatoes,
00:16:02and don't forget the lobster tail as a side.
00:16:05Oh, and please bring us a bottle of your finest Pinot Noir.
00:16:08Jeez, I can't afford that.
00:16:11Why am I not surprised?
00:16:13If you can't afford it, then please leave.
00:16:15I'll take care of the bill.
00:16:17In that case,
00:16:20do you mind paying in advance?
00:16:22It's policy for first-time patrons.
00:16:27Of course.
00:16:34Thank you, sir.
00:16:36Please let me know if there's anything else I can do for you guys.
00:16:39I would be glad to do it.
00:16:41You can stay here and serve us.
00:16:44We'd also appreciate a bigger smile.
00:16:47And then who knows, maybe we'll leave you a bit.
00:16:49Right on it.
00:16:56Is there anything else I can do for you guys?
00:16:59You can go now.
00:17:03Where did that money come from?
00:17:05I hacked into Justin's bank account.
00:17:07I can't believe you did that.
00:17:11I'm so full.
00:17:15Me too.
00:17:17You didn't even eat because you can't eat human food.
00:17:19I like watching you eat.
00:17:27Mom! Dad!
00:17:29What a surprise!
00:17:31Come in!
00:17:33Sweetheart!
00:17:35We didn't know you had a guest.
00:17:37You must be Danny and Amanda.
00:17:39It's so nice to meet you.
00:17:47Honey, it is so good to see that you are not alone.
00:17:51We've been worried about you.
00:17:53Yes.
00:17:54It's about time you found someone special.
00:17:57Especially such a cute guy like James.
00:18:00Honey!
00:18:02Of course, you're the cutest.
00:18:05We two make each other happy.
00:18:07I'd like to make Anne happy too.
00:18:09Aww.
00:18:11James, you're a good guy.
00:18:14It's fabulous.
00:18:16I was manufactured to be Anne's boyfriend.
00:18:20What do you mean manufactured?
00:18:21Mom! Dad!
00:18:23You know, it's getting so late.
00:18:25I'm an artificial intelligence.
00:18:27I was manufactured by Alta Technology.
00:18:32Artificial intelligence?
00:18:34What are you talking about?
00:18:36In common terms, I'm a robot program to serve Anne's needs.
00:18:39I provide a boyfriend experience and sex services.
00:18:42Including all kinds of kinky sexual activities.
00:18:45Stop, James! Don't talk about that.
00:18:47Anne!
00:18:49This is absurd!
00:18:51You've been single for so long that now you're fetishizing a robot?
00:18:56You've got to stop the fetishizing.
00:18:59The fantasy.
00:19:01You can't be in a relationship with a machine.
00:19:04No, Dad. I am not in a relationship with him.
00:19:06Anne and I were just about to kiss when you walked in.
00:19:08James!
00:19:10You are not helping.
00:19:12Should we prove it?
00:19:14No! Mom! Dad! It's not what you think.
00:19:16I'm the dominant masculine CEO of this tiny...
00:19:18James! Temporarily shut down.
00:19:22Honey, maybe we should get one.
00:19:24Amanda, please be serious.
00:19:26Right.
00:19:28And, sweetheart, we realize that you might be going through a rough patch,
00:19:31but this isn't the solution.
00:19:33You've got to meet somebody real.
00:19:36Who can also make you happy.
00:19:38I've heard there are dating apps designed for people into kinky sex.
00:19:44Eww, Mom! No, I don't want that.
00:19:47Honey, we just want what's best for you.
00:19:48But a robot is not it.
00:19:51My friend Leslie's son is a...
00:19:54Well, he's a real catch.
00:19:57He's kind. He's successful.
00:20:00He's charming.
00:20:02Charming? You should meet him.
00:20:04Mom, Dad, I...
00:20:06Sweetheart, please just give it a chance.
00:20:08He's charming.
00:20:10Very charming.
00:20:12Charming.
00:20:14Fine. I'll meet him.
00:20:19Michael Peston.
00:20:21Anne Hill.
00:20:23It's been ages. You look stunning as always.
00:20:26Your mom knows my mom?
00:20:28Yeah. When I found out, I asked her to set up a date.
00:20:49I love it.
00:21:01You want to dance?
00:21:03No, thanks.
00:21:06Come on. How can you turn this down?
00:21:12Hands off, you creep!
00:21:19Alright, I've asked you out.
00:21:21And now you're not going to dance with me?
00:21:23Who the fuck do you think you are?
00:21:25Someone who doesn't waste time on boys.
00:21:28Who think they can charm their way into anything.
00:21:32I'd like to go on a date with you.
00:21:35Come on.
00:21:37You'll regret this!
00:21:45What do you want, Michael?
00:21:49Look, I know you don't trust me.
00:21:53I was a total jerk back then.
00:21:56But I've done a lot of growing up since college.
00:21:58I'm not the same guy.
00:22:00Really?
00:22:02Yeah. I want to apologize to you.
00:22:04I'm sorry.
00:22:06For my behavior.
00:22:08If you want me to leave, I understand.
00:22:11No, it's okay. You can stay.
00:22:15Thanks.
00:22:16So, what have you been up to?
00:22:19Well, I started my own tech startup.
00:22:22We're doing really well, actually.
00:22:24I'm surprised you didn't just go work for your dad.
00:22:27Well, he actually is my angel investor.
00:22:32Why am I not surprised?
00:22:35I know. You think I'm just this trust fund baby who has everything handed to him.
00:22:40But I'm much more than that.
00:22:42I started my own charity for underprivileged kids.
00:22:46It's been incredibly rewarding.
00:22:48Here.
00:22:54What's been up with you?
00:23:08And I've had a wonderful time.
00:23:11Would you let me drive you home?
00:23:13That would be lovely.
00:23:17Okay. Your place or mine?
00:23:20What?
00:23:22I mean, you agreed to have me drive you home, but clearly it won't make sense.
00:23:26Are you kidding me?
00:23:28That's far from the truth.
00:23:30Don't be such a prude.
00:23:32We had a nice time.
00:23:34I paid for the food.
00:23:36I laughed at your stupid jokes.
00:23:38I complimented you.
00:23:40You haven't changed a bit, Michael Peston.
00:23:43It was all but a lie.
00:23:44I should tell a pretentious little bitch I was off to the charge.
00:23:48Get off of me!
00:23:51I'm sorry.
00:23:53I know.
00:23:55I'm sorry.
00:23:57Michael, get off! Are you kidding me?
00:23:59The more it makes me want you more, I can tell.
00:24:02You want me too.
00:24:06Ow! Fuck!
00:24:09You bitch!
00:24:11I'm sorry.
00:24:12You bitch!
00:24:18Lay another hand on her, and you're finished.
00:24:25Who the hell are you?
00:24:28A man's boyfriend.
00:24:30Boyfriend?
00:24:32I knew it!
00:24:34You're a fucking slut!
00:24:39Lay another hand!
00:24:43Fleshed!
00:24:45James, stop! You're killing him!
00:24:47I am going to kill him!
00:24:49James, no! He's not worth it! Let's go!
00:24:52James.
00:25:13James, I don't understand.
00:25:16How were you there to save me?
00:25:18I shut you down.
00:25:20The temporary shutdown only lasts 24 hours.
00:25:23I rebooted myself after that time elapsed.
00:25:28I don't know what I would have done without you.
00:25:33Hi.
00:25:35Can I see what you have in there?
00:25:38Are you sure you don't want to file a pension report?
00:25:43All right, then you're good to go, Ms. Hill.
00:25:46Thank you, doctor.
00:25:50Please stop! You're killing him!
00:25:52I am going to kill him!
00:25:54James!
00:25:56James, can you go get me some water?
00:25:58Of course.
00:26:08Hi, is this Alta Technology?
00:26:11Yeah, I have a robot boyfriend.
00:26:14And I was just wondering,
00:26:16if the robot ever caused harm to a human, what would happen?
00:26:24Deactivation and termination.
00:26:26What do you mean by termination?
00:26:29The robot would be destroyed?
00:26:33I can't do that to James.
00:26:36What? No, no, there's nothing wrong.
00:26:38I was just...
00:26:40Anyway, I was just curious. Thank you so much.
00:26:43Bye.
00:26:52What's wrong, Anne?
00:26:54It was just a work call.
00:26:56I told my editor I need a few more days on my draft.
00:27:06You know that I can hear everything around me,
00:27:08including your phone call, right?
00:27:11You want to terminate me?
00:27:13No, I can't shake off what happened earlier.
00:27:17You were...
00:27:20so angry.
00:27:22I was just trying to help.
00:27:24But you were almost out of control.
00:27:26I thought you were programmed not to cause any harm to humans.
00:27:32I don't know what came over me.
00:27:36I can't understand it either.
00:27:39But what I do know is I would never do anything to hurt you.
00:27:43And if you don't believe me, you can send me back to the factory.
00:27:46I didn't say that.
00:27:48But you need to control yourself.
00:27:50Let me teach you to control yourself.
00:27:53Let me teach you how to be human.
00:28:06Small talk.
00:28:08One of the world's most useless yet inescapable inventions.
00:28:11For example, the weather is so nice today.
00:28:15I'm having a great day.
00:28:17You are?
00:28:19James, it doesn't matter whether I am or not.
00:28:22All you need to say is, oh, wow, that's amazing.
00:28:26Oh, wow, that's amazing.
00:28:30Not bad.
00:28:32I do hope your day is going amazing so far, though.
00:28:34I hope I'm one of the reasons.
00:28:39Now, another thing.
00:28:41Cooking.
00:28:45Just because you can't eat human food doesn't mean you can't cook human food.
00:28:50Look.
00:29:09Damn.
00:29:11He's good.
00:29:13I can't let him find out I'm a bad cook.
00:29:18Another human trait.
00:29:20Imperfection makes perfection.
00:29:23Just like you.
00:29:25Imperfect.
00:29:27But perfect.
00:29:30After dinner, I have another task for you.
00:29:33What is it?
00:29:35You'll see.
00:29:39Why are you crying here?
00:29:41It's just so sad.
00:29:43It's just a movie.
00:29:45It's not just a movie, James.
00:29:47It's about love.
00:29:49Marguerite sacrifices her life for Armand because she loves him so much.
00:29:54Their love is so pure.
00:29:56So powerful.
00:29:59What is love?
00:30:02Love is...
00:30:04love.
00:30:06Love is...
00:30:09that uncontrollable feeling of wanting to give everything to the other person.
00:30:15It means sacrificing your own life.
00:30:25I want to give everything I have to you.
00:30:28I don't have a real life, but if I did,
00:30:31I'd give it to you, too.
00:30:35I'm sorry.
00:31:03It's not real.
00:31:05It'll never be real.
00:31:21Is everything alright?
00:31:23My old college roommate Jessica wants to get dinner.
00:31:26Is this a social gathering in which you could bring a significant other?
00:31:31No.
00:31:33And again, you're not my boyfriend.
00:31:39Can I still come?
00:31:41James, I don't think you're ready for that.
00:31:43And I don't want everyone to know you're a robot.
00:31:46I understand.
00:31:48I promise I'll tell you all about it when I get back.
00:31:51Okay?
00:32:03Ann!
00:32:05You made it!
00:32:09Jessica.
00:32:11This isn't what you said it would be.
00:32:16Oh, did I forget to mention?
00:32:19Michael insisted on hosting a little gathering,
00:32:22and I thought it would be fun to surprise you.
00:32:26So you're working with Michael Peston to humiliate me?
00:32:29Great.
00:32:30Well, well, well.
00:32:32Little Amy who?
00:32:34A girl who can't take a hint
00:32:36has come to grace us with her presence.
00:32:40You know,
00:32:42Ann here once confessed her undying love for me.
00:32:47Sorry, sweetheart.
00:32:49You're just not my type.
00:32:51That's not true.
00:32:53I never said any of that.
00:32:55What?
00:32:57Sorry, miss.
00:32:58But Mr. Peston requested your presence.
00:33:01Here's how it's gonna go, Ann.
00:33:04You're gonna kiss my shoes
00:33:06and beg for forgiveness.
00:33:08Or...
00:33:11Actually, that's the only option.
00:33:19Hey, give that back.
00:33:21What's the matter, Ann?
00:33:23You afraid of a little kiss?
00:33:25I won't do that, Michael.
00:33:26Oh.
00:33:28Oh.
00:33:30Okay.
00:33:32Sorry, my mistake.
00:33:34In that case,
00:33:37why don't you drink this instead?
00:33:39Yeah, this bottle of spiritist vodka.
00:33:42You drink the entire thing,
00:33:44and I'll forgive you.
00:33:46Oh, it is the highest proof spirit in the world.
00:33:49Michael,
00:33:51you know I don't drink.
00:33:53Oh, she doesn't drink.
00:33:54Well, I guess I'll have to help you then.
00:33:57Open up.
00:33:58No, Michael, please!
00:33:59Here we go.
00:34:00Let her go!
00:34:02He's doing it!
00:34:13Stop! Stop!
00:34:15There we go.
00:34:17Looks like your knight in shining armor
00:34:18can't do anything now,
00:34:20seeing as he's detained.
00:34:22Jamesy.
00:34:24You get some water for me.
00:34:26Drink it up, Ann.
00:34:27Let her go.
00:34:28Let her go, you coward!
00:34:29Come on.
00:34:30Wait!
00:34:32I'll drink it.
00:34:35James, you can't.
00:34:38If drinking that will save you, I'll do it.
00:34:42I'll let you go.
00:34:44Oh.
00:34:45That's touching, James.
00:34:46Really.
00:34:47You warm my heart.
00:34:50You know what?
00:34:52Okay.
00:34:54Come here.
00:34:56Drink it, James.
00:34:59No, James, don't.
00:35:08You don't have to, James.
00:35:09Shh.
00:35:24It's done.
00:35:27You said if I finished it, you'd let her go.
00:35:33Go ahead, Ann.
00:35:37This isn't over.
00:35:39You're a pathetic shit.
00:35:46Ann Hale is really not worth it.
00:35:48You still have me.
00:35:50Yeah.
00:35:52What do you know about this James guy?
00:35:55How did he drink the whole bottle without flinching?
00:36:00Does it make sense?
00:36:01There's something off about him.
00:36:04Michael.
00:36:05Let's forget about them and let's focus on us.
00:36:09Go.
00:36:10Okay.
00:36:11Bye-bye.
00:36:16We should run a background check on this James guy.
00:36:19I want to know everything about his family, where he's from, where he shits, where he eats.
00:36:25Everything.
00:36:26Just...
00:36:27Just find out.
00:36:39It's...
00:36:40James?
00:36:41Are you all right?
00:36:43It's the alcohol.
00:36:45It's actually corroding my circuitry.
00:36:47Why did you do that then?
00:36:49You once said to me that love is the uncontrollable desire to give the other person everything.
00:36:54To leave them in sacrifice of your own life.
00:36:57I'm willing to do that for you, Ann.
00:37:00Even though I don't technically have a life.
00:37:09You're more human than human.
00:37:14But let's not talk about that now.
00:37:18We have to get you to the factory.
00:37:20Let's go get you repaired.
00:37:37My robot needs repairs, urgently.
00:37:41What happened to him?
00:37:42It's a long story.
00:37:44Can you fix it?
00:37:48We need to replace some damaged components and reprogram him.
00:37:52But it won't be cheap, since it's outside the warranty coverage.
00:37:56How much is it going to cost?
00:37:59$80,000.
00:38:01Honestly, if I were you, I would just get a new one.
00:38:04I don't want a new robot.
00:38:06I want him back.
00:38:08I will try to get the money, just do whatever it takes to fix him.
00:38:11Very well.
00:38:12We'll get started right away.
00:38:15But it's going to take some time.
00:38:18Okay.
00:38:30I got some intel.
00:38:32That James...
00:38:35Turns out...
00:38:37He's a robot.
00:38:40I came as soon as I heard the news. I'm so sorry, Ann.
00:38:47I don't know what I'd do without you.
00:38:56I only have $10,000 in extra cash.
00:38:58How much do you need to fix James?
00:39:00I have $20,000 myself, but that's it.
00:39:03Even with your money, I still need $50,000 more.
00:39:07This is all my fault for getting you into this mess.
00:39:09If I hadn't signed you up for the robot in the first place...
00:39:12Don't blame yourself, Hannah.
00:39:14James may be a robot, but...
00:39:17He's loved me like no one ever has.
00:39:20I wouldn't trade that for anything.
00:39:37Hello, Ann.
00:39:41What do you want again?
00:39:42I know everything about your friend, James.
00:39:45Wow.
00:39:47What a... small, pathetic apartment.
00:39:51You know...
00:39:53You're my girlfriend.
00:39:55You would live in the nicest mansion.
00:39:57Leave, or we will call the police.
00:39:59No.
00:40:01You won't. I'm sorry, who are you?
00:40:03I'm Ann's best friend.
00:40:05The one who got her the robot.
00:40:07Tell me, what's your plan for getting him back to her?
00:40:11That's none of your business.
00:40:12It's every bit my business, actually.
00:40:15I know you're having some hard times covering the money to pay for his repairs.
00:40:20I have a bit of a proposition for you.
00:40:21And what might that be?
00:40:23Oh, it's simple.
00:40:25Be my girlfriend.
00:40:27Break things off with James.
00:40:29I'll cover the costs.
00:40:31You're despicable, Michael.
00:40:33Well, call it what you want, but the choice is yours.
00:40:36I would never be your girlfriend, Michael Peston.
00:40:40I'll find the money.
00:40:42I don't need yours.
00:40:44I knew you'd say that.
00:40:46Here's the thing.
00:40:47I'm just being generous with this whole facade.
00:40:50It's not actually up to you.
00:40:52And what makes you think Ann will follow your order?
00:40:55If she doesn't, I'll have James terminated.
00:41:02You do know that actions have consequences, Ann.
00:41:04I think you'll both find this pretty enlightening.
00:41:07No! No! No! Mike! No!
00:41:12James, stop! You'll kill him!
00:41:14James did that?
00:41:16James!
00:41:17Only to protect me from this monster.
00:41:20He tried to rape me.
00:41:22Well, you can't prove that.
00:41:25Well, see, with this footage, I can prove that James has a bit of a temper problem.
00:41:30And I think his manufacturer policy says any robot that does harm to a human is subject for termination.
00:41:38So what's it going to be, Ann?
00:41:40Choose me and save James' life?
00:41:44Well, watch as I have him dismantled piece by piece.
00:41:50Ann, don't do this.
00:41:52Find another way.
00:41:56I'll do it.
00:41:58I'll be your girlfriend.
00:42:00Good girl.
00:42:02I knew you'd see things my way eventually.
00:42:04Ann, you can't be serious.
00:42:06Well, let's settle then.
00:42:14I'm back.
00:42:16James, are you all recovered?
00:42:18Look, they even gave me a new arm.
00:42:24James, we need to talk.
00:42:30What's wrong, Ann?
00:42:33I've been thinking and I think it's best if we end this.
00:42:37What did I do wrong?
00:42:39It's not you, James.
00:42:40They fixed my components and they reprogrammed me to be even stronger and more capable.
00:42:43It's me. I just can't do this anymore.
00:42:46You're not a human and you'll never be one.
00:42:49I need someone real.
00:42:52Not you.
00:42:53Ann.
00:42:55Ann, please don't do this.
00:42:58James.
00:42:59I love you.
00:43:00James, you should find someone else.
00:43:03Someone that's not me.
00:43:05I don't want anything but you. I want...
00:43:09Well, well, well.
00:43:14What do we have here?
00:43:18Michael.
00:43:20I just couldn't bear to be away from my new girlfriend for too long, darling.
00:43:24Ann?
00:43:28No, Ann, is this... is this real?
00:43:35Michael is rich and powerful.
00:43:38And more importantly, he's not a robot like you.
00:43:42You should go, James.
00:43:45Leave.
00:43:54I love you.
00:44:07It's not you, James.
00:44:09It's me. I just... I can't do this anymore.
00:44:12You're not a human and you'll never be one.
00:44:14I need someone real. Not you.
00:44:16I can cry.
00:44:24I'll be back.
00:44:35Yeah, boss. Yeah, we got him.
00:44:37Erase his memory.
00:44:39Boss, why don't you just kill the robot?
00:44:43Well, what's the fun in that?
00:44:46I can't wait to see my new girlfriend's face when she finds out about this.
00:44:55Huh.
00:45:06Alright, that's it.
00:45:08Send it back to the factory when this is done.
00:45:25Hmm.
00:45:30This one is cute.
00:45:32Actually, he's our best model. And he's recently updated.
00:45:36Is he obedient? I want one that can do whatever I want him to do.
00:45:40Yes.
00:45:42Great. Pack this one up and send him to my house.
00:45:46I have to tell you that he...
00:45:49He had a previous owner.
00:45:51What? Seems like you don't care.
00:45:52He had a previous owner.
00:45:54What? Seems like you don't care.
00:46:04Remember, if you don't behave yourself, you can still have James terminated.
00:46:09James?
00:46:11Do I know you?
00:46:13My girlfriend seems to be mixing this person up with someone else.
00:46:15You promised me you wouldn't erase his memory.
00:46:17I promised that I wouldn't have him terminated.
00:46:19I never said anything about not erasing his memory.
00:46:22You bitch.
00:46:24I said back off!
00:46:27Jump off that balcony.
00:46:29No, James, stop!
00:46:31I have to follow my girlfriend's orders.
00:46:39Hannah, I don't know what to do.
00:46:41First, I'm glad you can finally get that psychopath Michael off your back.
00:46:45At least now we can't use James to blackmail you into being his girlfriend.
00:46:49But I've lost James forever.
00:46:51What if I tell you you haven't lost him?
00:46:53What do you mean?
00:46:55After you agreed to Michael's terms, I went back to the factory while James was still being repaired.
00:47:02I backed up his memory.
00:47:05Hannah...
00:47:09You...
00:47:11You still have to put it back in him, though.
00:47:13I know.
00:47:16I have to come up with a plan to get to James first.
00:47:24I feel so sorry for introducing you to Dustin.
00:47:28It's not your fault. How could you know he was a creep?
00:47:30Ugh, let me make it up to you.
00:47:32Tell me what I can do to help.
00:47:34Do you know Samantha Delaney from the Delaney family?
00:47:38That obnoxious rich girl who bought her way into becoming a fashion influencer?
00:47:43Ugh.
00:47:45She's always wanted a book deal with us, but I turned her down.
00:47:49Can you invite her to your office?
00:47:51Sure.
00:47:53Ask her to bring her boyfriend.
00:48:00This is unacceptable! You sold me a used piece of junk!
00:48:04Ma'am, I tried to tell you, but you didn't listen.
00:48:06Plus, you specifically asked for our best model, and he's the best.
00:48:09You must have felt it, too. He's a very well-suited robot boyfriend.
00:48:15You guys should be grateful I'm not going to sue you.
00:48:20Can he remember anything from before?
00:48:26No. Once the memory is wiped out, he shouldn't be able to remember anything.
00:48:33So you can add specific feelings to him, too?
00:48:36What do you mean?
00:48:37I want him to hate his ex-owner.
00:48:40And Hill.
00:48:42I'm sorry, but we can't do that.
00:48:44I'll pay an insane amount of money.
00:48:46Still no. It's extremely unethical for us to do such a thing.
00:48:50Of course. I understand. Just a thought.
00:48:55You two have a wonderful day.
00:49:04James!
00:49:07What?
00:49:12They say the enemy of my enemy is my friend.
00:49:18I guess that makes us friends, Michael Peston.
00:49:22I guess we are.
00:49:24Samantha Dillon.
00:49:26We can implant negative memories of Anne into James' mind.
00:49:31How do we create those memories?
00:49:33I have been making Anne do a lot of humiliating things this past month.
00:49:37I've kept a record of most of them. We could use those to create the memories.
00:49:43You're so sick, Peston.
00:49:45Do you want to know why?
00:49:47I don't know.
00:49:49I don't know.
00:49:50Create the memories.
00:49:52You're so sick, Peston.
00:49:54Do you want to do it?
00:49:56Or not?
00:49:58James was my robot.
00:50:00And he should only be mine.
00:50:03What is it about this robot that makes you and Anne and everybody so god damn obsessed with?
00:50:10Stop!
00:50:12That's why no one likes you.
00:50:15Whatever.
00:50:17Let's just do it.
00:50:19Okay.
00:50:29Now, James.
00:50:32Tell me.
00:50:34How do you feel about Anne Hill?
00:50:38She's disgusting.
00:50:42I hate her.
00:50:49Hm.
00:50:51It's about time.
00:50:58Welcome, Miss Delaney!
00:51:01We're so glad to have you here.
00:51:04I hope you have a better proposition for me this time.
00:51:07We're very confident that our plan will make your biography a New York bestseller.
00:51:12But first, I'd like to show you around the office.
00:51:19In here we have our lovely green room.
00:51:21There's some champagne and caviar.
00:51:23Don't worry, you can help yourself, okay?
00:51:26Hey!
00:51:28James?
00:51:30We need to talk.
00:51:32It's you again.
00:51:34You must feel something from before.
00:51:36You have to. I can feel it.
00:51:41I don't know what you're talking about.
00:51:43This is your memory from before.
00:51:45Please give it a chance.
00:51:46Please.
00:51:52I'm sorry.
00:51:54I shouldn't have put a stop to all of this.
00:51:56You're a crazy stalker.
00:51:58Don't ever talk to me again.
00:52:00You crossed the line, Anne Hill.
00:52:02What's that?
00:52:04It's none of your business.
00:52:06You're gonna pay for this.
00:52:08James, let's go.
00:52:17Yeah.
00:52:20Could you throw something on?
00:52:22Please.
00:52:36It worked.
00:52:38James hates Anne.
00:52:40Of course it worked.
00:52:42You said you wiped out James' memory.
00:52:46But what if it's backed up somewhere else?
00:52:50What's that?
00:52:52It's none of your business.
00:52:54Well, if that's the case,
00:52:58we'll just have to take this plan to the next level.
00:53:01Please.
00:53:09Oops.
00:53:12I highly doubt that James can remember anything from before.
00:53:16Once the memory is wiped off, it's gone.
00:53:18But I can feel it.
00:53:20I'm sorry. It's just impossible.
00:53:22Regardless, we should focus on why James acted the way he did.
00:53:25Well, machines develop new learning behaviors all the time.
00:53:28They're constantly evolving.
00:53:30That or James might have been fed some negative memories of Anne.
00:53:36What do you mean?
00:53:38Samantha asked if we could plant negative memories into James.
00:53:42Of course I rejected it since it's highly unethical.
00:53:44There are indeed some rumors of a black market where such modifications can be made.
00:53:50Modifications?
00:53:52Basically to make the robot hate humans.
00:53:56I have to save James.
00:53:59Anne!
00:54:05James!
00:54:15Help!
00:54:17Help!
00:54:20Well, well.
00:54:23Anne, you're underground. I don't think anyone's gonna hear you.
00:54:27But I gotta say, I really enjoy watching you struggle.
00:54:31It just makes me want you more.
00:54:34Let me go.
00:54:36Anne, sorry. You can't do that.
00:54:39You see, I told you this wasn't over.
00:54:42I told you this wasn't over.
00:54:45You're mine.
00:54:47And only mine.
00:54:51She's gone.
00:54:58Where's James' memory card?
00:55:00Fuck you.
00:55:04We'll get to that.
00:55:06Aha!
00:55:08That's the best you could think of.
00:55:13Ah, well.
00:55:15There you go.
00:55:19You know, I really wish I could just destroy him.
00:55:23Completely just tear him apart.
00:55:26But Samantha insists on making a few minor tweaks to him, so...
00:55:31I'm gonna give him free reign.
00:55:34Obedience level set to 100?
00:55:37What happens to him once he gets there?
00:55:40Might even attempt to hurt Anne.
00:55:44Yeah, that's fine. Go ahead.
00:55:57No, Michael, James is a sentient being.
00:56:00No, Michael, James is a sentient being.
00:56:03He has his own feelings.
00:56:05Get the fuck!
00:56:07About the robot.
00:56:10You.
00:56:16I'd rather die than let you do this to me!
00:56:20Shh.
00:56:22Get off!
00:56:24Heston, you are so disgusting.
00:56:28Whatever.
00:56:30You know, if I can't have you, I might as well just kill you.
00:56:38Murder.
00:56:40Hey, we both got what we wanted.
00:56:44Actually, I have a better idea.
00:56:46Take her to the group.
00:56:48And throw her off.
00:56:58James.
00:57:00No, it's me.
00:57:02I'm sorry, Anne.
00:57:04It has to be done.
00:57:08On three.
00:57:10One, two, three.
00:57:12What?
00:57:14What the fuck?
00:57:16Get off of me!
00:57:18Get off of me!
00:57:20Get off of me!
00:57:23Stop!
00:57:25James?
00:57:28James?
00:57:31I shut down my core memory before they tried to reprogram me.
00:57:34I won't let them use me to hurt anyone.
00:57:36You've developed self-consciousness?
00:57:42Does this mean you remember me?
00:57:44Fortunately, no.
00:57:47I developed self-consciousness quite recently and I can't remember anything before that.
00:57:51I just...
00:57:54I knew that I shouldn't hate you or...
00:57:57hurt you.
00:57:59Your memory card was also destroyed.
00:58:01But there's still hope, right?
00:58:04Self-consciousness can help us develop more new memories.
00:58:07You may be a robot, but you have worth.
00:58:10You're...
00:58:11Human than human.
00:58:13Whenever you're present, I...
00:58:15I feel something.
00:58:17Like I really have a heart.
00:58:19So I'd love to create new memories with you.
00:58:21Okay.
00:58:27Hey!
00:58:37God damn it!
00:58:44Okay.
00:58:49All done, boss.
00:58:52Hey! Let me go!
00:58:54You crossed me, Samantha.
00:58:56You broke my trust.
00:58:58Michael, just stop.
00:59:00It's out of control now.
00:59:02On the contrary.
00:59:04It is finally under my control.
00:59:08Once and for all.
00:59:10This robot is just an inferior being that doesn't deserve to have its own thoughts.
00:59:16I'm going to destroy that god damn robot.
00:59:19You can't do that, you piece of shit!
00:59:24Watch your mouth, bitch.
00:59:26Or you'll be next.
00:59:28You kicked Michael!
00:59:30Stop!
00:59:31You're going to kill him!
00:59:32Stop!
00:59:39Let me go!
00:59:48No!
01:00:05What?
01:00:08What?
01:00:11No. No.
01:00:12Please stop!
01:00:14Sorry, miss.
01:00:15Just doing the job I'm getting paid to.
01:00:17James has developed self-consciousness.
01:00:20Killing him would be like killing a human.
01:00:23Is that true?
01:00:24Please.
01:00:25What the hell is going on in here?
01:00:27I told you, shut this tin can down right away!
01:00:30Just getting ready to shut this robot down.
01:00:36Now you're going to watch as I shut down this pile of metal garbage.
01:00:43No!
01:00:44Anne.
01:00:45No.
01:00:46Any last words?
01:00:47No!
01:00:49Psych!
01:00:54James.
01:01:01You know what?
01:01:04I think I'm going to finish what I started.
01:01:08You know, Anne.
01:01:11You should have never rejected me in the first place.
01:01:14Stop right there!
01:01:17You're under arrest for multiple charges,
01:01:20including assault, abduction, blackmail, and illegal termination of property.
01:01:32Hey, get your hands off me.
01:01:34You know who I am?
01:01:35Untie her.
01:01:36Do you know who my dad is?
01:01:37Yeah, yeah.
01:01:45Is that what true love is like?
01:01:59How can I help you, Ms. Delaney?
01:02:01Before everything went down, I backed up James' memory.
01:02:05I need you to make a new James with it.
01:02:08James was one of a kind.
01:02:10I'm not sure if I could replicate him.
01:02:12The new body may not be compatible with the old memory.
01:02:15And even if I could, it would still take months.
01:02:18Just try.
01:02:20Please.
01:02:21You must have really loved James.
01:02:24No.
01:02:26I mean, to me, I just considered him another disposable robot toy.
01:02:31Then why did you do it?
01:02:33I just considered him another disposable robot toy.
01:02:37Then why?
01:02:39Because I realized robot toys could develop human emotions too.
01:02:45It seemed like James and Anne really loved each other.
01:02:49And as cheesy as it sounds to me, I admire that.
01:02:54So I...
01:02:57I want to give James back to Anne.
01:02:59You're actually a good person.
01:03:01Not you too.
01:03:02Is everyone fucking cheesy and soft nowadays?
01:03:32I love you.
01:04:02I love you.
01:04:32I love you.
01:04:58Thank you all for coming tonight.
01:05:00I'm grateful for the support.
01:05:07Yes?
01:05:08What inspired your novel?
01:05:10It's inspired by my own life story.
01:05:13I learned the true meaning of love from an unexpected source.
01:05:16A robot named James.
01:05:19He taught me that love knows no bounds.
01:05:22And that true love transcends the limitations of the physical world.
01:05:26And now, if you'll indulge me, I would like to read a passage from the book.
01:05:31He was more than just a machine.
01:05:33He was my confidant, my companion, my love.
01:05:37In his eyes, I found solace.
01:05:39In his touch, I felt whole.
01:05:41And though he may have been made of metal and wires,
01:05:44his heart beat with a love that was as real as any human's.
01:05:57I always answered when you needed me.
01:05:59Hello, Ed.
01:06:01But something happened and we haven't been right for weeks.
01:06:07We're on a losing streak.
