00:27:04you know that I can hear everything around me including your phone call right you want
00:27:09to terminate me no I I can't shake off what happened earlier you were
00:27:17so angry I was just trying to help but you're almost out of control I thought you were programmed
00:27:23not to cause any harm to humans
00:27:25I don't know what came over me
00:27:27I can't understand it either
00:27:29but what I do know is I would never do anything to hurt you
00:27:31and if you don't believe me you can send me back to the fact
00:27:33I didn't say that
00:27:35but you need to control yourself
00:27:37let me teach you
00:27:39to control yourself
00:27:41I can't
00:27:43I can't
00:27:45I can't
00:27:47I can't
00:27:49I can't
00:27:51I can't
00:27:53lets me teach you
00:27:55to control yourself
00:27:57I can't
00:27:59I can't
00:28:01I can't
00:28:03I can't
00:28:07let me teach you
00:28:09how to be human
00:28:11yet inescapable inventions.
00:28:13For example, the weather is so nice today.
00:28:17I'm having a great day.
00:28:20You are?
00:28:21James, it doesn't matter whether I am or not.
00:28:23All you need to say is, oh wow, that's amazing.
00:28:29Oh wow, that's amazing.
00:28:32Not bad.
00:28:34I do hope your day's going amazing so far, though.
00:28:36I hope I'm one of the reasons.
00:28:37Now another thing, cooking.
00:28:44Just because you can't eat human food
00:28:46doesn't mean you can't cook human food.
00:28:48Look.
00:28:52♪ I know it sounds crazy baby try to understand me please do ♪
00:28:59♪ I knew you would fit me like a glove the day I fell in love with you ♪
00:29:04♪ I knew you would fit me like a glove the day I fell in love with you ♪
00:29:09♪ With the pictures in my head ♪
00:29:13Damn, he's good.
00:29:15I can't let him find out I'm a bad cook.
00:29:20Another human trait.
00:29:22Imperfection makes perfection.
00:29:26Just like you, imperfect, but perfect.
00:29:31After dinner I have another task for you.
00:29:34What is it?
00:29:35You'll see.
00:29:44Why are you crying again?
00:29:45It's just so sad.
00:29:47It's just a movie.
00:29:49It's not just a movie, James.
00:29:51It's about love.
00:29:53Marguerite sacrifices her life for Armand because she loves him so much.
00:29:59Their love is so pure, so powerful.
00:30:04What is love?
00:30:07Love is...
00:30:10that uncontrollable feeling of wanting to give everything to the other person.
00:30:16It means sacrificing your own life.
00:30:18Sacrificing your own life.
00:30:27I want to give everything I have to you.
00:30:30I don't have a real life, but if I did, I'd give it to you too.
00:30:48I love you.
00:31:05It's not real.
00:31:07It'll never be real.
00:31:19I love you.
00:31:27Is everything alright?
00:31:28My old college roommate Jessica wants to get dinner.
00:31:31Is this a social gathering in which you could bring a significant other?
00:31:36No.
00:31:38And again, you're not my boyfriend.
00:31:44Can I still come?
00:31:45Hello?
00:31:46James, I don't think you're ready for that.
00:31:48And I don't want to go in and know you're a robot.
00:31:51I understand.
00:31:53I promise I'll tell you all about it when I get back.
00:31:57Okay?
00:32:11Anne! You made it!
00:32:16Jessica, this isn't what you said it would be.
00:32:24Oh, did I forget to mention?
00:32:27Michael insisted on hosting a little gathering and I thought it would be fun to surprise you.
00:32:33So you're working with Michael Peston to humiliate me?
00:32:36Great.
00:32:38Well, well, well.
00:32:39Little Annie who?
00:32:41Girl who can't take a hint.
00:32:43Has come to grace us with her presence.
00:32:47You know, Anne here once confessed her undying love for me.
00:32:54Sorry, sweetheart.
00:32:56You're just not my type.
00:32:57That's not true.
00:32:59I never said any of that.
00:33:02Sorry, miss.
00:33:04But Mr. Peston requested your presence.
00:33:06Here's how it's going to go, Anne.
00:33:09You're going to kiss my shoes and beg for forgiveness.
00:33:13Or...
00:33:16Actually, that's the only option.
00:33:25Hey, give that back.
00:33:26What's the matter, Anne?
00:33:28You afraid of a little kiss?
00:33:30I won't do that, Michael.
00:33:33Oh.
00:33:35Oh, okay.
00:33:36Okay.
00:33:38Sorry, my mistake.
00:33:40In that case...
00:33:43Why don't you drink this instead?
00:33:45Yeah, this bottle of spiritist vodka.
00:33:48You drink the entire thing and I'll forgive you.
00:33:52Oh, it is the highest proof spirit in the world.
00:33:55Michael?
00:33:57You know I don't drink.
00:33:59Oh, she doesn't drink.
00:34:00Well, I guess I'll have to help you then.
00:34:02Open up.
00:34:03No, Michael, please.
00:34:04Here we go.
00:34:06Let her go!
00:34:08Steiner, damn it!
00:34:19Stop! Stop!
00:34:21There we go.
00:34:23Looks like your knight in shining armor can't do anything now.
00:34:26Seeing as he's detained...
00:34:28Jamesy...
00:34:30You get some lunch, buddy.
00:34:32Drink up, Anne.
00:34:33Let her go.
00:34:34Let her go, you coward!
00:34:35Come on!
00:34:36Please!
00:34:38I'll drink.
00:34:41James, you can't.
00:34:44Drink it and I'll save you.
00:34:45I'll do it.
00:34:48I'll let you go.
00:34:50Wow.
00:34:51That's touching, James.
00:34:52Really.
00:34:53You warm my heart.
00:34:56You know what?
00:34:58Okay.
00:35:00Come here.
00:35:02Drink it, James.
00:35:04No.
00:35:05No, James, don't.
00:35:14You don't have to, James.
00:35:15Shh.
00:35:30It's done.
00:35:32You said if I finished it, you'd let her go.
00:35:39Go ahead, Anne.
00:35:42This isn't over.
00:35:45You're a piece of shit.
00:35:51Angel is really not worth it.
00:35:53You still have me.
00:35:57What do you know about this James guy?
00:36:01How did he drink the whole bottle without flinching?
00:36:06Does it make sense?
00:36:07There's something off about him.
00:36:10Michael, let's forget about them and let's focus on us.
00:36:15Go.
00:36:16Okay.
00:36:17Bye-bye.
00:36:22We should run a background check on this James guy.
00:36:25I want to know everything about his family, where he's from, where he shits, where he eats.
00:36:30Everything.
00:36:32Just find out.
00:36:45It's...
00:36:46James?
00:36:47Yes?
00:36:48Are you all right?
00:36:49No, it's...
00:36:51It's actually corroding my circuitry.
00:36:53Why did you do that then?
00:36:56Someone said to me that love is the uncontrollable desire to give the other person everything.
00:37:01To give them the sacrifice of your own life.
00:37:04I'm willing to do that for you, Anne.
00:37:07Because we don't technically have a life.
00:37:16You're more human than human.
00:37:20You're more human than human.
00:37:25But let's not talk about that now.
00:37:28We have to get you to the factory.
00:37:30Let's go get you repaired.
00:37:47My robot needs repairs, urgently!
00:37:50My robot needs repairs, urgently!
00:37:53What happened to him?
00:37:54It's a long story.
00:37:56Can you fix it?
00:38:00We need to replace some damaged components and reprogram him.
00:38:05But it won't be cheap, since it's outside the warranty coverage.
00:38:09How much is it going to cost?
00:38:11$80,000.
00:38:13Honestly, if I were you, I would just get a new one.
00:38:16I don't want a new robot.
00:38:18I want him back.
00:38:19I want him back.
00:38:20I will try to get the money, just do whatever it takes to fix him.
00:38:23Very well.
00:38:25We'll get started right away.
00:38:27But it's going to take some time.
00:38:42I got some intel.
00:38:45That James...
00:38:47Turns out...
00:38:49He's a robot.
00:38:53I don't know what I'd do without you.
00:39:02I only have $10,000 in extra cash.
00:39:04How much do you need to fix James?
00:39:06I have $20,000 myself, but that's it.
00:39:09Even with your money, I still need $50,000 more.
00:39:13It's all my fault for getting you into this mess.
00:39:16If I hadn't signed you up for the robot in the first place...
00:39:18Don't blame yourself, Hannah.
00:39:20James may be a robot, but...
00:39:24He's loved me like no one ever has.
00:39:26I wouldn't trade that for anything.
00:39:43Hello, Anne.
00:39:47What do you want again?
00:39:48I know everything about your friend, James.
00:39:52Wow.
00:39:54What a small, pathetic apartment.
00:39:58You know...
00:39:59You're my girlfriend.
00:40:01You would live in the nicest mansion.
00:40:03Leave, or we will call the police.
00:40:06No.
00:40:07You won't.
00:40:08I'm sorry, who are you?
00:40:09I'm Anne's best friend.
00:40:11The one who got her the robot.
00:40:13Tell me, what's your plan for getting him back to her?
00:40:17That's none of your business.
00:40:19It's every bit my business, actually.
00:40:22I know you're having some hard times covering the money to pay for his repairs.
00:40:26I have a bit of a proposition for you.
00:40:28And what might that be?
00:40:29Oh, it's simple.
00:40:31Be my girlfriend.
00:40:33Break things off with James.
00:40:36I'll cover the costs.
00:40:37You're despicable, Michael.
00:40:39Well, call it what you want, but the choice is yours.
00:40:42I would never be your girlfriend, Michael Peston.
00:40:47I'll find the money.
00:40:48I don't need yours.
00:40:50I knew you'd say that.
00:40:52Here's the thing.
00:40:53I'm just being generous with this whole facade.
00:40:56It's not actually up to you.
00:40:58And what makes you think Anne will follow your order?
00:41:01If she doesn't, I'll have James terminated.
00:41:04You do know that actions have consequences, Anne.
00:41:07I think you'll both find this pretty enlightening.
00:41:16James, stop! You'll kill him!
00:41:18James did that?
00:41:20James!
00:41:21Only to protect me from this monster.
00:41:23He tried to rape me.
00:41:26Well, you can't prove that.
00:41:29Well, see, with this footage,
00:41:31I can prove that James has a bit of a temper problem.
00:41:34And I think his manufacturer policy says
00:41:37any robot that does harm to a human is subject for termination.
00:41:42So what's it going to be, Anne?
00:41:44Choose me and save James' life.
00:41:47Or watch as I have him dismantled piece by piece.
00:41:54Anne, don't do this.
00:41:55Find another way.
00:41:56I'll do it.
00:41:58I'll be your girlfriend.
00:42:01Good girl.
00:42:02I knew you'd see things my way eventually.
00:42:04Anne, you can't be serious.
00:42:07Well, let's settle then.
00:42:15I'm back.
00:42:16James, are you all recovered?
00:42:18Look, they even gave me a new arm.
00:42:21James, we need to talk.
00:42:27What's wrong, Anne?
00:42:29I've been thinking, and I think it's best if we end this.
00:42:33What did I do wrong?
00:42:35It's not you, James.
00:42:36No, no, they fixed my components and they reprogrammed me to be even stronger and more capable.
00:42:39It's me. I just can't do this anymore.
00:42:42I'm sorry.
00:42:43I'm sorry.
00:42:44I'm sorry.
00:42:45I'm sorry.
00:42:46I'm sorry.
00:42:47I'm sorry.
00:42:48I'm sorry.
00:42:49I'm sorry.
00:42:50You're not a human and you'll never be one.
00:42:53I need someone real.
00:42:57Not you.
00:42:58Anne.
00:42:59Anne, please don't do this.
00:43:02I love you, Anne. I love you.
00:43:04James, you should find someone else.
00:43:07Someone that's not me.
00:43:09I don't want anything with you. I want...
00:43:13Well, well, well.
00:43:15What do we have here?
00:43:22Michael.
00:43:24I just couldn't bear to be away from my new girlfriend for too long.
00:43:28Darling.
00:43:33Oh, man, is this real?
00:43:40Michael is rich and powerful.
00:43:43And more importantly, he's not a robot like you.
00:43:47You should go, James.
00:43:50Leave.
00:44:11It's not you, James. It's me.
00:44:15I just... I can't do this anymore.
00:44:17You're not a human and you'll never be one.
00:44:19I need someone real. Not you.
00:44:21I can cry.
00:44:41Yeah, boss. Yeah, we got him.
00:44:43Erase his memory.
00:44:45Boss, why don't you just kill the robot?
00:44:49What's the fun in that?
00:44:52I can't wait to see my new girlfriend's face when she finds out about this.
00:45:11All right, that's it.
00:45:13Send it back to the factory when this is done.
00:45:16Hmm.
00:45:39This one is cute.
00:45:41Actually, he's our best model.
00:45:43And he's recently updated.
00:45:44Is he obedient?
00:45:46I want one that can do whatever I want him to do.
00:45:49Yes.
00:45:50Great.
00:45:51Pack this one up and send him to my house.
00:45:54I have to tell you that he...
00:45:57He had a previous owner, but seems like he don't care.
00:46:10Remember, if you don't behave yourself, you can still have James terminated.
00:46:16James?
00:46:17Do I know you?
00:46:18My girlfriend seems to be mixing this person up with someone else.
00:46:21You promised me you wouldn't erase his memory.
00:46:23I promised that I wouldn't have him terminated.
00:46:26I never said anything about not erasing his memory.
00:46:29You bitch.
00:46:31I said back off!
00:46:34Jump off that balcony.
00:46:36No, James, stop!
00:46:37I have to follow my girlfriend's orders.
00:46:45Hannah, I don't know what to do.
00:46:48First, I'm glad you can finally get that psychopath Michael off your back.
00:46:52At least now we can't use James to blackmail you into being his girlfriend.
00:46:56But I've lost James forever.
00:46:58What if I tell you you haven't lost him?
00:47:00What do you mean?
00:47:02After you agreed to Michael's terms, I went back to the factory while James was still being repaired.
00:47:09I backed up his memory.
00:47:12Hannah...
00:47:16You...
00:47:18You still have to put it back in him, though.
00:47:20I know.
00:47:22I have to come up with a plan to get to James first.
00:47:31I feel so sorry for introducing you to Dustin.
00:47:34It's not your fault. How could you know he was a creep?
00:47:37Let me make it up to you.
00:47:39Tell me what I can do to help.
00:47:41Do you know Samantha Delaney from the Delaney family?
00:47:45That obnoxious rich girl who bought her way into becoming a fashion influencer?
00:47:51She's always wanted a book deal with us, but I turned her down.
00:47:55Can you invite her to your office?
00:47:58Sure.
00:48:00Ask her to bring her boyfriend.
00:48:07This is unacceptable! You sold me a used piece of junk!
00:48:10Ma'am, I tried to tell you, but you didn't listen.
00:48:13Plus, you specifically asked for our best model, and he's the best.
00:48:17You must have felt it, too. He's a very well-suited robot boyfriend.
00:48:22You guys should be grateful I'm not going to sue you.
00:48:27Can he remember anything from before?
00:48:33No. Once the memory is wiped out, he shouldn't be able to remember anything.
00:48:39So you can add specific feelings to him, too?
00:48:43What do you mean?
00:48:44I want him to hate his ex-owner.
00:48:47And him.
00:48:49I'm sorry, but we can't do that.
00:48:51Or pay an insane amount of money.
00:48:52Still no.
00:48:54It's extremely unethical for us to do such a thing.
00:48:57Of course, I understand. Just a thought.
00:49:02You two have a wonderful day.
00:49:11James!
00:49:18They say the enemy of my enemy is my friend.
00:49:25I guess that makes us friends, Michael Peston.
00:49:29I guess we are.
00:49:31Samantha Doe.
00:49:42We can implant negative memories of Anne into James's mind.
00:49:47How do we create those memories?
00:49:49I have been making Anne do a lot of humiliating things this past month.
00:49:53Kept a record of most of them.
00:49:55We can use those to create the memories.
00:49:58You're so sick, Peston.
00:50:01Do you want to do it, or not?
00:50:05James was my robot, and he should only be mine.
00:50:10What is it about this robot that makes you and Anne and everybody so goddamn...
00:50:16Stop! That's why no one likes you.
00:50:21Whatever. Let's just do it.
00:50:25Okay.
00:50:35Now, James.
00:50:38Tell me.
00:50:41How do you feel about Anne Hill?
00:50:45She's disgusting.
00:50:49I hate her.
00:50:58It's about time.
00:51:06Welcome, Miss Delaney. We're so glad to have you here.
00:51:11I hope you have a better proposition for me this time.
00:51:14We're very confident that our plan will make your biography a New York bestseller.
00:51:19But first, I'd like to show you around the office.
00:51:25In here we have our lovely green room. There's some champagne and caviar.
00:51:29Don't worry, you can help yourself, okay?
00:51:33Hi.
00:51:35James, we need to talk.
00:51:38It's you again.
00:51:40You must feel something from before.
00:51:42You have to. I can feel it.
00:51:47I don't know what you're talking about.
00:51:49This is your memory from before. Please give it a chance.
00:51:58I'm sorry. I should have put a stop to all of this.
00:52:01You're a crazy stalker.
00:52:03Don't ever talk to me again.
00:52:05You crossed the line, Anne Hill.
00:52:08What is that?
00:52:09It's none of your business.
00:52:11You're going to pay for this.
00:52:13James, let's go.
00:52:26Could you throw something on?
00:52:29Please.
00:52:43It worked.
00:52:45James hates Anne.
00:52:46Of course it worked.
00:52:48You said you wiped out James' memory.
00:52:54But what if it's backed up somewhere else?
00:52:58What is that?
00:52:59It's none of your business.
00:53:01Well, if that's the case,
00:53:05we'll just have to take this plan to the next level.
00:53:09Please.
00:53:16Oops.
00:53:20I really doubt that James can remember anything from before.
00:53:23Once the memory is wiped off, it's gone.
00:53:25But I can feel it.
00:53:26I'm sorry. It's just impossible.
00:53:28Regardless, we should focus on why James acted the way he did.
00:53:32Well, machines develop new learning behaviors all the time.
00:53:34They're constantly evolving.
00:53:36That or James might have been fed some negative memories of Anne.
00:53:43What do you mean?
00:53:44Samantha asked if we could plant negative memories into James.
00:53:49Of course, I rejected it since it's highly unethical.
00:53:52There are indeed some rumors of a black market where such modifications can be made.
00:53:57Modifications?
00:53:59Basically to make the robot hate humans.
00:54:04I have to save James.
00:54:06Anne!
00:54:13James!
00:54:24Help!
00:54:26Help!
00:54:28Well, well.
00:54:32Anne, you're underground. I don't think anyone's going to hear you.
00:54:36But I've got to say, I really enjoy watching you struggle.
00:54:39It just, it just makes me want you more.
00:54:43Let me go.
00:54:46Sorry, I can't do that.
00:54:47You see, I told you this wasn't over.
00:54:52You're mine.
00:54:54And only mine.
00:54:58She's all I'm dreaming of.
00:55:02Tell her.
00:55:05Where's James' memory card?
00:55:11We'll get to that.
00:55:14Ah!
00:55:18That's the best you could think of.
00:55:23Well, there you go.
00:55:28You know, I really wish I could just destroy him.
00:55:31Completely.
00:55:32Just tear him apart.
00:55:35But Samantha insists on making a few minor tweaks to him, so...
00:55:40I'm going to give her free reign.
00:55:46Obedience level set to 100?
00:55:49What happens to him once he gets there?
00:55:51Might even attempt to hurt Anne.
00:55:56Yeah.
00:55:57That's fine, go ahead.
00:56:08No, Michael, James is a sentient being.
00:56:10He has his own feelings and...
00:56:12Get the fuck!
00:56:15About the robot.
00:56:18You.
00:56:20Shit.
00:56:22Yes.
00:56:24I'm dying to let you do this to me.
00:56:27Shh.
00:56:31Heston, you are so disgusting.
00:56:37Whatever.
00:56:38You know, if I can't have you, I might as well just kill you.
00:56:47Okay.
00:56:49Hey, we both got what we wanted.
00:56:52Actually, I have a better idea.
00:56:54Take her to the roof.
00:56:56Throw her off.
00:57:07James.
00:57:08No, it's me.
00:57:10I'm sorry.
00:57:11It has to be done.
00:57:15On three.
00:57:17One, two, three.
00:57:20What?
00:57:21What the fuck are you doing?
00:57:23Get off of me!
00:57:24Get off of me!
00:57:25What the fuck are you doing?
00:57:27Get off of me!
00:57:29Get off!
00:57:30Stop!
00:57:31James?
00:57:38I shut down my core memory before they tried to reprogram me.
00:57:41I won't let them use me to hurt anyone.
00:57:43You've developed self-consciousness?
00:57:49Does this mean you remember me?
00:57:51What should we know?
00:57:54I developed self-consciousness quite recently, and I can't remember anything before that.
00:57:59I just knew that I shouldn't hate you or hurt you.
00:58:03Your memory card was also destroyed.
00:58:06But there's still hope, right?
00:58:09Self-consciousness can help us develop more new memories.
00:58:13You may be a robot, but you have worth.
00:58:15You're...
00:58:16Human than human.
00:58:18Whenever you're present, I...
00:58:21I feel something, like I really have a heart.
00:58:25So I'd love to create new memories with you.
00:58:32Hey!
00:58:42I did it!
00:58:49Okay.
00:58:55All done, boss.
00:58:58Hey! Let me go!
00:59:00You crossed me, Samantha.
00:59:02You broke my trust.
00:59:04Michael, just stop.
00:59:06It's out of control now.
00:59:07On the contrary.
00:59:11It's finally under my control.
00:59:15Once and for all.
00:59:17A robot is just an inferior being that doesn't deserve to have its own thoughts.
00:59:23I'm going to destroy that goddamn robot.
00:59:26You can't do that, you piece of shit!
00:59:31Watch your mouth, bitch.
00:59:33Or you'll be next.
00:59:35You killed Michael! Stop!
00:59:38You're gonna kill him! Stop!
00:59:46Let me go!
00:59:50Stop!
01:00:11What?
01:00:17No.
01:00:18No.
01:00:19Please stop!
01:00:21Sorry, miss.
01:00:22Just doing the job I'm getting paid to.
01:00:24James has developed self-consciousness.
01:00:27Killing him would be like killing a human.
01:00:30Is that true?
01:00:31Please.
01:00:32What the hell's going on in here?
01:00:34I told you, shut this tin can down right away!
01:00:37Just getting ready to shut this robot down.
01:00:42Now you're gonna watch as I shut down this pile of metal garbage.
01:00:49No!
01:00:52Any last words?
01:00:53No!
01:00:56Psych!
01:01:05You know what?
01:01:09I think I'm gonna finish what I started.
01:01:13You know, Anne, you just shouldn't have rejected me in the first place.
01:01:19Stop right there!
01:01:22You're under arrest for multiple charges, including assault, abduction, blackmail, and illegal termination of property.
01:01:33Come on.
01:01:37Get your hands off me.
01:01:39You know who I am?
01:01:40I'm tired.
01:01:41You know who my dad is?
01:01:42Yeah, yeah.
01:01:56Is that what true love is like?
01:02:08How can I help you, Miss Delaney?
01:02:10Before everything went down, I backed up James' memory.
01:02:14I need you to make a new James with it.
01:02:19James was one of a kind.
01:02:21I'm not sure if I could replicate him.
01:02:24The new body may not be compatible with the old memory.
01:02:26And even if I could, it would still take months.
01:02:30Just try.
01:02:31Please.
01:02:33You must have really loved James.
01:02:35No.
01:02:37I mean, to me, I just considered him another disposable robot toy.
01:02:42Then why?
01:02:44Because I realized robot toys could develop human emotions, too.
01:02:50It seemed like James and Anne really loved each other.
01:02:54And as cheesy as it sounds to me, I admire that.
01:02:59So I want to give James back to Anne.
01:03:04You're actually a good person.
01:03:06Not you, too.
01:03:07Is everyone fucking cheesy and soft nowadays?
01:03:20I'm sorry.
01:03:50I'm sorry.
01:04:20I'm sorry.
01:04:50Yes?
01:05:02What inspired your novel?
01:05:04It's inspired by my own life story.
01:05:07I learned the true meaning of love from an unexpected source.
01:05:10A robot named James.
01:05:13He taught me that love knows no bounds.
01:05:16And that true love transcends the limitations of the physical world.
01:05:20And now, if you'll indulge me, I would like to read a passage from the book.
01:05:25He was more than just a machine.
01:05:27He was my confidant, my companion, my love.
01:05:31In his eyes, I found solace.
01:05:33In his touch, I felt whole.
01:05:35And though he may have been made of metal and wires,
01:05:38his heart beat with a love that was as real as any human's.
01:05:47I used to think we were above it all.
01:05:51I always answered when you needed me.
01:05:53Hello.
01:05:55But something happened and we haven't been right for weeks.
