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?
00:14:06I checked Dustin's records and his online trace.
00:14:09He takes nude photos of his dates and he puts them on the dark web.
00:14:13That's why I didn't want you to talk to him.
00:14:15Great.
00:14:16So the only guy I hit it off with in years turns out to be a pervert.
00:14:20I don't understand.
00:14:22You dodged a bullet.
00:14:25Why 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.
00:14:57Let's do it.
00:15:06Yeah.
00:15:10You look nice.
00:15:13Shall we?
00:15:14Yeah.
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 a thousand dollars minimum consumption?
00:15:40A thousand dollars per person?
00:15:42That's crazy.
00:15:45Perhaps we should go.
00:15:47Well, perhaps you shouldn't have come here in the first place.
00:15:50One thousand dollars?
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,
00:16:03and don't forget the lobster tail as a side.
00:16:05Oh, and please bring us a bottle of your finest Pinot Noir.
00:16:09Jeez, I can't afford that.
00:16:11Why am I not surprised?
00:16:12If 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?
00:16:21It's policy for first-time patrons.
00:16:27Of course.
00:16:34Thank you, sir.
00:16:35Please let me know if there's anything else I can do for you guys.
00:16:38I would be glad to do it.
00:16:40We can stay here and serve us.
00:16:43We'd also appreciate a bigger smile.
00:16:45And then who knows?
00:16:46Maybe we'll leave you a bit.
00:16:47Right on it.
00:16:54Is there anything else I can do for you guys?
00:16:58You can go now.
00:17:01Where did that money come from?
00:17:03I hacked into Dustin's bank account.
00:17:05I can't believe you did that.
00:17:07I can't believe you did that.
00:17:11I'm so full.
00:17:15Me too.
00:17:16You didn't even eat because you can't eat human food.
00:17:19I like watching you eat.
00:17:32Mom! Dad!
00:17:33What a surprise! Come in!
00:17:35Sweetheart!
00:17:36We didn't know you had a guest.
00:17:38You must be Danny and Amanda.
00:17:40It's so nice to meet you.
00:17:49Honey, it is so good to see that you are not alone.
00:17:53We've been worried about you.
00:17:55Yes.
00:17:56It's about time you found someone special.
00:17:59Especially such a cute guy like James.
00:18:02Honey!
00:18:03Of course, you're the cutest.
00:18:06You two make each other happy.
00:18:08I'd like to make Anne happy too.
00:18:10Aww!
00:18:11James, you're a good guy.
00:18:15It's my goodness.
00:18:16I was manufactured to be Anne's boyfriend.
00:18:21What do you mean manufactured?
00:18:23Mom, Dad, you know it's getting so late.
00:18:26I'm an artificial intelligence.
00:18:28I was manufactured by Alta Technology.
00:18:31Artificial intelligence?
00:18:33What are you talking about?
00:18:35In common terms, I'm a robot program to serve Anne's needs.
00:18:38I provide a boyfriend experience and sex services,
00:18:42including all kinds of kinky sexual activities.
00:18:44Stop, James! Don't talk about that.
00:18:46Anne, this is absurd.
00:18:49You've been single for so long
00:18:51that now you're fetishizing a robot?
00:18:53You've got to stop the fetishizing,
00:18:57the fetishizing, the fantasy.
00:19:00You can't be in a relationship with a machine.
00:19:03No, 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!
00:19:09You are not helping.
00:19:10Should we prove it?
00:19:11No!
00:19:12Mom, Dad, it's not what you think.
00:19:14I'm the dominant masculine CEO of this tiny...
00:19:16James, temporarily shut down.
00:19:23Honey, maybe we should get one.
00:19:26Amanda, please be serious.
00:19:28Right.
00:19:29And, sweetheart, we realize
00:19:31that you might be going through a rough patch,
00:19:33but this isn't the solution.
00:19:35You've got to meet somebody real.
00:19:38Who can also make you happy.
00:19:40I have heard there are dating apps
00:19:43designed for people into kinky sex.
00:19:46Eww, Mom, no, I don't want that.
00:19:49Honey, we just want what's best for you,
00:19:51but a robot is not it.
00:19:54My friend Leslie's son is a...
00:19:57Well, he's a real catch.
00:20:00He's kind, he's successful, he's charming.
00:20:04Charming? You should meet him.
00:20:06Mom, Dad, I...
00:20:07Sweetheart, please just give it a chance.
00:20:10He's charming.
00:20:11Very charming.
00:20:12Charming.
00:20:13Charming.
00:20:14Fine.
00:20:15I'll meet him.
00:20:25Michael Peston.
00:20:27Anne Hill.
00:20:28It's been ages.
00:20:29You look stunning, as always.
00:20:31Your mom knows my mom?
00:20:33Yeah.
00:20:34When I found out, I asked her to set up a date.
00:20:38You wanna dance?
00:20:40No, thanks.
00:20:42Come on.
00:20:44I wanna see you dance.
00:20:47You want to dance?
00:21:03No thanks.
00:21:04Come on.
00:21:05How can you turn this down?
00:21:12What's off you, creep?
00:21:13All right, I've asked you out, and now you're not going to dance with me?
00:21:24Who the fuck do you think you are?
00:21:26Someone who doesn't waste time on boys, who think they can charm their way into anything.
00:21:34I'd like to go on a date with you.
00:21:36Fuck off.
00:21:38You'll regret this.
00:21:46What do you want, Michael?
00:21:50Look, I know you don't trust me.
00:21:54I was a total jerk back then, but I've done a lot of growing up since college.
00:21:58I'm not the same guy.
00:22:00Really?
00:22:01Yeah.
00:22:02I want to apologize to you.
00:22:04I'm sorry for my behavior.
00:22:07If you want me to leave, I understand.
00:22:11No.
00:22:12It's okay.
00:22:13You can stay.
00:22:14Thanks.
00:22:15So, what have you been up to?
00:22:19Well, I started my own tech startup.
00:22:22We're doing really well, actually.
00:22:25I'm surprised you didn't just go work for your dad.
00:22:28Well, he actually is my angel investor, so.
00:22:33Why am I not surprised?
00:22:35I know.
00:22:37You think I'm just this trust fund baby who has everything handed to him, but I'm much
00:22:41more than that.
00:22:42I started my own charity for underprivileged kids.
00:22:46It's been incredibly rewarding.
00:22:48Here.
00:22:55What's been up with you?
00:23:04And I've had a wonderful time.
00:23:06Would you let me drive you home?
00:23:08That would be lovely.
00:23:16Okay.
00:23:17Your place or mine?
00:23:18What?
00:23:19I mean, you agreed to have me drive you home, but clearly it won't have a sentence.
00:23:25Are you kidding me?
00:23:27That's far from the truth.
00:23:29Are you kidding me?
00:23:31That's far from the truth.
00:23:33That would be such a prude.
00:23:35We had a nice time.
00:23:37I paid for the food.
00:23:38I laughed at your stupid jokes.
00:23:40I complimented you.
00:23:42You haven't changed a bit, Michael Peston.
00:23:44It was all but a lie.
00:23:46I should tell her if you touch this little bitch, I'll have to take charge.
00:23:51Get off of me!
00:23:54Sorry.
00:23:59Michael, get off!
00:24:00Are you kidding me?
00:24:01The more it makes me want you more, I can tell.
00:24:04You want me too.
00:24:09Ow!
00:24:10Fuck!
00:24:12You bitch!
00:24:19Lay another hand on her, you're finished!
00:24:24Who the hell are you?
00:24:28Man's boyfriend.
00:24:29Boyfriend?
00:24:32I knew it!
00:24:33You're a fucking slut!
00:24:39Lay another hand on her, you're finished!
00:24:44James, stop!
00:24:45You're killing him!
00:24:46I am gonna kill him!
00:24:47James, no!
00:24:48He's not worth it!
00:24:49Let's go!
00:24:52James.
00:24:53James.
00:25:14James, I don't understand.
00:25:16How were you there to save me?
00:25:18I shut you down.
00:25:21The barrier shut down only lasts 24 hours.
00:25:25I rebooted myself after that time elapsed.
00:25:28I don't know what I would have done without you.
00:25:33Hi.
00:25:34Hi.
00:25:36Look, can you see what you have in there?
00:25:39Are you sure you don't want to file a patient report?
00:25:44Alright, then you're good to go, Ms. Hill.
00:25:46Alright.
00:25:47Thank you, doctor.
00:25:51Please stop!
00:25:52You're killing him!
00:25:53I am gonna 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?
00:26:12Yeah, I have a robot boyfriend and I was just wondering...
00:26:17If the robot ever caused harm to a human, what would happen?
00:26:25Deactivation and termination.
00:26:27What do you mean by termination?
00:26:30The robot would be destroyed?
00:26:34I can't do that to James.
00:26:37What?
00:26:38No, no, there's nothing wrong.
00:26:39I was just...
00:26:41Anyway, I was just curious.
00:26:42Thank you so much.
00:26:44Bye.
00:26:47Bye.
00:26:53What's wrong, Anne?
00:26:54It was just a work call.
00:26:57I told my editor I need a few more days on my draft.
00:27:07You know that I can hear everything around me, including your phone call, right?
00:27:12You want to terminate me?
00:27:13No, I can't shake off what happened earlier.
00:27:17You were...
00:27:20so angry.
00:27:21I was just trying to help.
00:27:23But you were almost out of control.
00:27:25I 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.
00:27:45I didn't say that.
00:27:47But 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.
00:28:07One of humanity's most useless yet inescapable inventions.
00:28:11For example,
00:28:13the weather is so nice today.
00:28:15I'm having a great day.
00:28:18You are?
00:28:19James, it doesn't matter whether I am or not.
00:28:21All you need to say is,
00:28:23Oh, wow, that's amazing.
00:28:27Oh, 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.
00:28:35Now, another thing.
00:28:37Cooking.
00:28:41Just because you can't eat human food,
00:28:43doesn't mean you can't cook human food.
00:28:46Look.
00:28:49I know it sounds crazy, baby.
00:28:51Try to understand me, please do.
00:28:58I knew you'd fit me like a glove that day.
00:29:02I knew you'd fit me like a glove that day.
00:29:05I fell in love with the pictures in my head.
00:29:11Damn.
00:29:12He's good.
00:29:14I can't let him find out I'm a bad cook.
00:29:19Another human trait.
00:29:21Imperfection makes perfection.
00:29:25Just like you.
00:29:26Imperfect.
00:29:28But perfect.
00:29:32After dinner, I have another task for you.
00:29:34What is it?
00:29:35You'll see.
00:29:44Why are you crying here?
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.
00:29:57Their love is so pure.
00:29:59So...
00:30:00powerful.
00:30:02What is love?
00:30:05Love is...
00:30:08that uncontrollable feeling of wanting to give everything to the other person.
00:30:14It means sacrificing your own life.
00:30:24I want to give everything I have to you.
00:30:27I don't have a real life, but if I did...
00:30:30I'd give it to you, too.
00:30:57It's not real.
00:30:59It'll never be real.
00:31:13Is everything alright?
00:31:14My old college roommate, Jessica, wants to get dinner.
00:31:17Is this a date?
00:31:19It's a date.
00:31:20It's a date.
00:31:21It's a date.
00:31:22It's a date.
00:31:23It's a date.
00:31:24It's a date.
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.
00:31:52Okay?
00:31:56Okay.
00:32:06Anne!
00:32:07You made it!
00:32:12Jessica!
00:32:14This isn't what you said it would be.
00:32:19Oh, did I forget to mention?
00:32:22Michael insisted on hosting a little gathering
00:32:24and I thought it would be fun to surprise you.
00:32:28So you're working with Michael Peston to humiliate me?
00:32:31Great.
00:32:33Well, well, well.
00:32:34Little Annie who?
00:32:36The girl who can't take a hint
00:32:38has come to grace us with her presence.
00:32:42You know, Anne here once confessed her undying love for me.
00:32:49Sorry, sweetheart.
00:32:51You're just not my type.
00:32:52That's not true.
00:32:54I never said any of that.
00:32:57Sorry, miss.
00:32:58But Mr. Peston requested your presence.
00:33:01Here's how it's gonna go, Anne.
00:33:03You're gonna kiss my shoes and beg for forgiveness.
00:33:08Or...
00:33:11Actually, that's the only option.
00:33:19Hey, give that back.
00:33:20What's the matter, Anne?
00:33:22You afraid of a little kiss?
00:33:24I won't do that, Michael.
00:33:27Oh.
00:33:29Oh, okay.
00:33:31Sorry.
00:33:32My mistake.
00:33:34In that case,
00:33:37why don't you drink this instead?
00:33:39Yeah, this bottle of spiritus vodka.
00:33:42You drink the entire thing and 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.
00:33:55Well, 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, he's doing it!
00:34:13Stop, stop!
00:34:15There we go.
00:34:17Looks like your knight in shining armor can't do anything now.
00:34:20Seeing as he's detained,
00:34:22Jamesy,
00:34:24you get some lunch, buddy.
00:34:26Drink it up, Anne.
00:34:27Let her go.
00:34:29Let her go, you coward!
00:34:30Come on.
00:34:31Wait!
00:34:33I'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.
00:34:48You warm my heart.
00:34:50You know what?
00:34:52Okay.
00:34:54Come here.
00:34:56Drink it, James.
00:34:58Come here.
00:34:59No, James, don't.
00:35:01Up.
00:35:03Drop.
00:35:08Go on.
00:35:09You don't have to, James.
00:35:10Shh.
00:35:22It's done.
00:35:25You said if I finished it, you'd let her go.
00:35:30Go ahead, Anne.
00:35:34This isn't over.
00:35:37You're a pathetic shit.
00:35:44Anne Hale is really not worth it.
00:35:46You still have me.
00:35:48Yeah.
00:35:49What do you know about this James guy?
00:35:52How did he drink the whole bottle without flinching?
00:35:57Does it make sense?
00:35:59There's something off about him.
00:36:01Michael.
00:36:03Let's forget about them and let's focus on us.
00:36:06Go.
00:36:07Okay.
00:36:08Bye-bye.
00:36:13We should run a background check on this James guy.
00:36:16We should run a background check on this James guy.
00:36:19I want to know everything about him.
00:36:21His family, where he's from, where he shits, where he eats.
00:36:25Everything.
00:36:26Just...
00:36:27Just find out.
00:36:40James?
00:36:41Are you all right?
00:36:43It's the alcohol.
00:36:44It's actually corroding my circuitry.
00:36:47Why did you do that then?
00:36:49Someone said to me that love is the uncontrollable desire to give the other person everything.
00:36:54Even if that means sacrificing your own life.
00:36:57I'm willing to do that for you, Anne.
00:37:00Even though I don't technically have a life.
00:37:09You're more human than human.
00:37:12Well, let's not talk about that now.
00:37:15We have to get you to the factory.
00:37:17Let's go get you repaired.
00:37:35My robot needs repairs.
00:37:36Urgently.
00:37:37What happened to him?
00:37:38It's a long story.
00:37:40Can you fix it?
00:37:44We need to replace some damaged components and reprogram him.
00:37:49But it won't be cheap.
00:37:50Since it's outside the warranty coverage.
00:37:53How much is it going to cost?
00:37:55$80,000.
00:37:57Honestly, if I were you, I would just get a new one.
00:38:00I don't want a new robot.
00:38:02I want him.
00:38:04I will try to get the money.
00:38:05Just do whatever it takes to fix him.
00:38:08Very well.
00:38:09We'll get started right away.
00:38:11But it's going to take some time.
00:38:27I got some intel.
00:38:29That James was in the factory.
00:38:32That James.
00:38:35Turns out.
00:38:37He's a robot.
00:38:41I came as soon as I heard the news.
00:38:42I'm so sorry, Anne.
00:38:48I don't know what I'd do without you.
00:38:56I only have $10,000 in extra cash.
00:38:59How much do you need to fix James?
00:39:00I have $20,000 myself.
00:39:02But that's it.
00:39:03Even with your money, I still need $50,000 more.
00:39:06It's 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.
00:39:30Hello, Anne.
00:39:34What do you want again?
00:39:35I know everything about your friend, James.
00:39:39Wow.
00:39:41What a small, pathetic apartment.
00:39:45You know.
00:39:47You're my girlfriend.
00:39:49You would live in the nicest mansion.
00:39:51Leave, or we will call the police.
00:39:54I'm sorry.
00:39:56I'm sorry.
00:39:58Leave, or we will call the police.
00:40:00No.
00:40:02You won't.
00:40:03I'm sorry.
00:40:04Who are you?
00:40:05I'm Anne's best friend.
00:40:06The one who got her the robot.
00:40:08Tell me.
00:40:10What's your plan for getting him back to her?
00:40:12That's none of your business.
00:40:14It's every bit my business, actually.
00:40:17I know you're having some hard times covering the money to pay for his repairs.
00:40:21I have a bit of a proposition for you.
00:40:23And what might that be?
00:40:25Oh, it's simple.
00:40:26Be my girlfriend.
00:40:28Break things off with James.
00:40:30I'll cover the costs.
00:40:32You're despicable, Michael.
00:40:34Well, call it what you want, but the choice is yours.
00:40:37I would never be your girlfriend, Michael Peston.
00:40:41I'll find the money.
00:40:43I don't need yours.
00:40:45I knew you'd say that.
00:40:47Here's the thing.
00:40:49I'm just being generous with this whole facade.
00:40:51It's not actually up to you.
00:40:53And what makes you think Anne will follow your order?
00:40:55If she doesn't,
00:40:57I'll have James terminated.
00:41:02You do know that actions have consequences, Anne.
00:41:05I think you'll both find this pretty enlightening.
00:41:15James did that?
00:41:18Only to protect me from this monster.
00:41:21He tried to rape me.
00:41:22Well, you can't prove that.
00:41:25Let's see, with this footage,
00:41:27I can prove that James has a bit of a temper problem.
00:41:30And I think his manufacturer policy says
00:41:33any robot that does harm to a human
00:41:35is subject for termination.
00:41:38So what's it going to be, Anne?
00:41:40Choose me and save James's life.
00:41:43Or watch as I have him dismantled
00:41:47piece by piece.
00:41:50Anne, 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.
00:42:04Anne, 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.
00:42:21Yeah.
00:42:25James, we need to talk.
00:42:31What's wrong, Anne?
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.
00:42:41They fixed my components and they reprogrammed me
00:42:43to be even stronger and more capable.
00:42:45It's me. I just can't do this anymore.
00:42:47You're not a human and you'll never be one.
00:42:49I need someone real.
00:42:51Not you.
00:42:53Anne.
00:42:55Anne, please don't do this.
00:42:57James.
00:42:59I love you, Anne. I love you.
00:43:01James, you should find someone else.
00:43:03Someone that's not me.
00:43:05I don't want anything but you.
00:43:07I want...
00:43:09Well, well, well.
00:43:14What do we have here?
00:43:18Michael.
00:43:19I just couldn't bear to be away from my new girlfriend for too long.
00:43:23Darlene.
00:43:27Look, Anne, is this... is this real?
00:43:34Michael is rich and powerful.
00:43:37But more importantly, he's not a robot like you.
00:43:41You should go, James.
00:43:44Leave.
00:43:49I'll hold on tighter to you.
00:44:00Now and always.
00:44:07It's not you, James.
00:44:09It's me. I just...
00:44:11I can't do this anymore.
00:44:13You're not a human and you'll never be one.
00:44:15I need someone real. Not you.
00:44:17I can cry.
00:44:19James.
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?
00:44:45I can't wait to see my new girlfriend's face when she finds out about this.
00:45:05All right, that's it.
00:45:07Send it back to the factory when this is done.
00:45:15Hmm.
00:45:33This one is cute.
00:45:35Actually, he's our best model.
00:45:37And he's recently updated.
00:45:39Is he obedient?
00:45:41I want one that can do whatever I want him to do.
00:45:43Yes.
00:45:45Great. Pack this one up and send him to my house.
00:45:49I have to tell you that he...
00:45:52He had a previous owner, but seems like he don't care.
00:46:04Remember, if you don't behave yourself, you can still have James terminated.
00:46:10James?
00:46:12Do I know you?
00:46:13I'm 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.
00:46:20I never said anything about not erasing his memory.
00:46:23You bitch.
00:46:25I said back off!
00:46:28Jump off that balcony.
00:46:30No, James, stop!
00:46:32I have to follow my girlfriend's orders.
00:46:40Hannah, I don't know what to do.
00:46:42First, I'm glad you can finally get that psychopath Michael off your back.
00:46:46At least now we can't use James to blackmail you into being his girlfriend.
00:46:50But I've lost James forever.
00:46:52What if I tell you you haven't lost him?
00:46:54What do you mean?
00:46:56After you agreed to Michael's terms, I went back to the factory while James was still being repaired.
00:47:03I backed up his memory.
00:47:06Hannah...
00:47:10You...
00:47:12You still have to put it back in him, though.
00:47:14I 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?
00:47:31Let me make it up to you. Tell me what I can do to help.
00:47:35Do you know Samantha Delaney from the Delaney family?
00:47:38That obnoxious rich girl who bought her way into becoming a fashion influencer?
00:47:44She's always wanted a book deal with us, but I turned her down.
00:47:49Can you invite her to your office?
00:47:52Sure.
00:47:54Ask 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.
00:48:07Plus, you specifically asked for our best model, and he's the best.
00:48:11You must have felt it, too. He's a very well-suited robot boyfriend.
00:48:16You guys should be grateful I'm not going to sue you.
00:48:21Can he remember anything from before?
00:48:27No. Once the memory is wiped out, he shouldn't be able to remember anything.
00:48:34So you can add specific feelings to him, too?
00:48:37What do you mean?
00:48:38I want him to hate his ex-owner.
00:48:41And him.
00:48:43I'm sorry, but we can't do that.
00:48:45I'll pay an insane amount of money.
00:48:46Still no.
00:48:48It's extremely unethical for us to do such a thing.
00:48:51Of course. I understand. Just a thought.
00:48:56You two have a wonderful day.
00:49:05James!
00:49:07James!
00:49:12They say the enemy of my enemy is my friend.
00:49:19I guess that makes us friends, Michael Peston.
00:49:23I guess we are.
00:49:25Cement the deal.
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 can use those to create the memories.
00:49:43You're so sick, Peston.
00:49:45Do you want to do it?
00:49:47No.
00:49:49I don't want to do it.
00:49:51James was my robot.
00:49:53And he should only be mine.
00:49:56What is it about this robot that makes you, and Anne, and everybody so goddamn sick?
00:50:03Stop!
00:50:05That's why no one likes you.
00:50:08Whatever.
00:50:10Let's just do it.
00:50:12Okay.
00:50:14Let's just do it.
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.
00:50:45Hmm.
00:50:47It's about time.
00:50:54Welcome, Miss Delaney!
00:50:57We're so glad to have you here.
00:51:00I hope you'll have a better proposition for me this time.
00:51:03We're very confident that our plan will make your biography a New York bestseller.
00:51:09But first, I'd like to show you around the office.
00:51:12And here we have our lovely green room.
00:51:15There's some champagne and caviar.
00:51:17Don't worry.
00:51:19You can help yourself, okay?
00:51:21Hey!
00:51:23James?
00:51:24We need to talk.
00:51:26It's you again.
00:51:28You must feel something from before.
00:51:30You have to.
00:51:32I can feel it.
00:51:35No!
00:51:37No!
00:51:39No!
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.
00:51:47Ah!
00:51:49Ah!
00:51:51I'm sorry.
00:51:53I shouldn't have put a stop to all of this.
00:51:55You're a crazy stalker.
00:51:57Don't ever talk to me again.
00:51:59You crossed the line, Anne Hill.
00:52:01What's that?
00:52:03It's none of your business.
00:52:05You're gonna pay for this.
00:52:07James, let's go.
00:52:08Let's go.
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.
00:52:44Uh-huh.
00:52:47But what if it's backed up somewhere else?
00:52:51What's that?
00:52:53It's none of your business.
00:52:55Well, if that's the case,
00:52:59we'll just have to take this plan to the next level.
00:53:02Please.
00:53:04Ah!
00:53:10Oops.
00:53:13I highly doubt that James can remember anything from before.
00:53:17Once the memory is wiped off, it's gone.
00:53:19But I can feel it.
00:53:21I'm sorry. It's just impossible.
00:53:23Regardless, we should focus on why James acted the way he did.
00:53:26Well, machines develop new learning behaviors all the time.
00:53:29They're constantly evolving.
00:53:31That or
00:53:33James might have been fed some negative memories of man.
00:53:37What do you mean?
00:53:39Samantha asked if we could plant negative memories into James.
00:53:43Of course, I rejected it since it's highly unethical.
00:53:46There are indeed some rumors of a black market
00:53:49where such modifications can be made.
00:53:51Modifications?
00:53:53Basically to make the robot hate humans.
00:53:58I have to save James.
00:54:00Anne!
00:54:07James!
00:54:18Help!
00:54:20Help!
00:54:22Well, well.
00:54:25Anne.
00:54:27You're underground. I don't think anyone's gonna hear you.
00:54:30But I gotta say, I really enjoy watching you struggle.
00:54:33It just...
00:54:35It just makes me want you more.
00:54:37Let me go.
00:54:39I'm sorry you can't do that.
00:54:41You see,
00:54:43I told you this wasn't over.
00:54:46You're mine.
00:54:48And only
00:54:50mine.
00:54:52She's gone three times.
00:54:55Time.
00:54:59Where's James' memory card?
00:55:01Fuck you.
00:55:05We'll get to that.
00:55:07Aha!
00:55:11That's the best you could think of.
00:55:16Well, there you go.
00:55:19No!
00:55:21You know, I really wish I could just destroy him.
00:55:24Completely.
00:55:26Just tear him apart.
00:55:28But Samantha insists on making a few minor tweaks to him, so...
00:55:33I'm gonna give him free reign.
00:55:34Obedience level set to 100?
00:55:37What happens to him once he gets there?
00:55:39Might even attempt to hurt Anne.
00:55:43Yeah.
00:55:45That's fine. Go ahead.
00:55:57No, Michael, James is a sentient being.
00:56:00Yes, he is.
00:56:02Michael, James is a sentient being.
00:56:04He has his own feelings.
00:56:06I don't give a fuck
00:56:08about
00:56:10the robot.
00:56:12You.
00:56:17I'd rather die than let you do this to me.
00:56:23Get off!
00:56:25Heston,
00:56:27you are so disgusting.
00:56:28Whatever.
00:56:30You know,
00:56:32if I can't have you,
00:56:34I might as well just kill you.
00:56:39Murder.
00:56:41Hey,
00:56:43we both got what we wanted.
00:56:45Actually, I have a better idea.
00:56:47Take her to the group.
00:56:49And 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.
00:57:07On three.
00:57:09One,
00:57:11two, three.
00:57:13What?
00:57:15What the fuck are you doing?
00:57:17Get off of me!
00:57:19Get off of me!
00:57:21Get off!
00:57:23Stop!
00:57:25James?
00:57:27James?
00:57:31I shut down my core memory
00:57:32before 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?
00:57:44Unfortunately, no.
00:57:47I developed self-consciousness quite recently.
00:57:49I can't remember anything before that.
00:57:51I just...
00:57:55I knew that I shouldn't hate you
00:57:57or hurt 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
00:58:06more new memories.
00:58:08You may be a robot, but you have worth.
00:58:10You're...
00:58:12Human than human.
00:58:14Whenever you're present,
00:58:16I feel something.
00:58:18Like I really have a heart.
00:58:20So I'd love to create new memories with you.
00:58:27Hey!
00:58:37I did it!
00:58:44Okay.
00:58:49All done, boss.
00:58:53Hey! Let me go!
00:58:55You crossed me, Samantha.
00:58:57You broke my trust.
00:58:59Michael, just stop.
00:59:01It's out of control now.
00:59:03On the contrary.
00:59:05It's finally under my control.
00:59:09Once and for all,
00:59:11a robot is just an inferior being
00:59:14that doesn't deserve to have its own thoughts.
00:59:17I'm going to destroy that goddamn robot.
00:59:20You can't do that, you piece of shit!
00:59:21Watch your mouth, bitch.
00:59:23Or you'll be next.
00:59:25You kicked Michael!
00:59:27Stop!
00:59:29You're going to kill him!
00:59:31Stop!
00:59:37Let me go!
00:59:40Die!
00:59:51What?
00:59:54What?
00:59:56No.
00:59:58No!
01:00:00Please stop!
01:00:02Sorry, miss.
01:00:03Just doing the job I'm getting paid to.
01:00:05James has developed self-consciousness.
01:00:07I can't do this.
01:00:09I can't do this.
01:00:11I can't do this.
01:00:13I can't do this.
01:00:14I can't do this.
01:00:16I can't do this.
01:00:18I can't do this.
01:00:20I can't do this.
01:00:22Killing him would be like killing a human.
01:00:24Is that true?
01:00:26Please.
01:00:28What the hell is going on in here?
01:00:30I told you, shut this tin can down right away!
01:00:32Just getting ready to shut this robot down.
01:00:37Now you're going to watch
01:00:39as I shut down this pile of metal garbage.
01:00:44No!
01:00:46Beth, any last words?
01:00:48No!
01:00:50Psych!
01:00:54James.
01:01:01You know what?
01:01:04I think I'm going to finish
01:01:06what I started.
01:01:09You know, Anne,
01:01:11you should have never rejected me in the first place.
01:01:15Stop right there!
01:01:17You're under arrest
01:01:18for multiple charges
01:01:20including assault, abduction,
01:01:22blackmail,
01:01:24and illegal termination of property.
01:01:32Get your hands off me.
01:01:34Do you know who I am?
01:01:36Do you know who my dad is?
01:01:38Yeah, yeah.
01:01:48Is that
01:01:50what true love is like?
01:02:01How can I help you, Ms. Delaney?
01:02:03Before everything went down,
01:02:05I backed up James' memory.
01:02:07I need you to make
01:02:09a new James with it.
01:02:12James was one of a kind.
01:02:14I'm not sure if I could represent him.
01:02:16The new body may not be compatible
01:02:18with the old memory.
01:02:20And even if I could,
01:02:22it would still take months.
01:02:24Just try.
01:02:26Please.
01:02:28You must have really loved James.
01:02:30No.
01:02:32I mean, to me,
01:02:34I just considered him another
01:02:36disposable robot toy.
01:02:38Then why?
01:02:40Because I realized robot toys
01:02:42could develop human emotions too.
01:02:43It seemed like
01:02:45James and Anne
01:02:47really loved each other.
01:02:49And as cheesy as that sounds to me,
01:02:51I admire that.
01:02:53So I
01:02:55I want to give James back to Anne.
01:02:57You're actually a good person.
01:02:59Not you too.
01:03:01Is everyone fucking cheesy and soft nowadays?
01:03:13I love you.
01:03:15I love you.
01:03:17I love you.
01:03:19I love you.
01:03:21I love you.
01:03:23I love you.
01:03:25I love you.
01:03:27I love you.
01:03:29I love you.
01:03:31I love you.
01:03:33I love you.
01:03:35I love you.
01:03:37I love you.
01:03:39I love you.
01:03:41I love you.
01:03:43I love you.
01:03:45I love you.
01:03:47I love you.
01:03:49I love you.
01:03:51I love you.
01:03:53I love you.
01:03:55I love you.
01:03:57I love you.
01:03:59I love you.
01:04:01I love you.
01:04:03I love you.
01:04:05I love you.
01:04:07I love you.
01:04:09I love you.
01:04:11I love you.
01:04:13I love you.
01:04:15I love you.
01:04:17I love you.
01:04:19I love you.
01:04:21I love you.
01:04:23I love you.
01:04:25I love you.
01:04:27I love you.
01:04:29I love you.
01:04:31I love you.
01:04:33I love you.
01:04:35I love you.
01:04:37I love you.
01:04:39I love you.
01:04:41I love you.
01:04:43I love you.
01:04:58Thank you all for coming tonight.
01:05:01I'm grateful for the support.
01:05:03Applause
01:05:07Yes?
01:05:09What 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, a robot named James.
01:05:19He taught me that love knows no bounds and that true love transcends the limitations
01:05:25of 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.
01:05:34He 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, his heart beat with a love that
01:05:46was as real as any human's.
01:05:49Your tone is different on our morning calls.
01:05:54I used to think we were above it all.
01:05:58I always answered when you needed me.
01:06:00Hello, Anne.
01:06:01But something happened and we haven't been right for weeks.
01:06:02We're on a losing streak.
