(soft music)

Most of the time, it's like, I don't know,

it's like there's this thick black cloud

covering everything.

Like we see the world,

but we don't really see the world, you know?

We're all just stumbling around,

directionless, no sense of meaning,

no sense of purpose.

I know that might sound super depressing,

but honestly, I think it's a good thing.

Because it makes us appreciate the other times.

Those brief, transcendent moments

when the lights flicker on,

the black cloud parts,

and you see the world for what it really is.

(soft music)

And suddenly, there's meaning.

Suddenly, there's purpose.

(soft music)

- So, do you, oh shit, shit, shit, shit, shit, shit.

Shit.

(laughing)

- If you're lucky, you'll experience this

once in your lifetime.

- God damn, that was, that was smooth.

- For me, so smooth, it happened twice.

The first was the day I met Josh.

- I'm Josh.

- I'm Lyris.

- And the second, the day I killed him.

(upbeat music)

(upbeat music)

- Iris, wake up.

♪ Oh, what a beautiful day ♪

♪ Oh, I never felt this way before ♪

- Nicely, Beat.

- Ooh, how long was I out?

- Uh, for a while.

Yeah, you were zonked out there pretty good.

- I was having the most wonderful dream.

- Oh yeah?

About me?

- That is very presumptuous, but yes.

- Yes, no.

Was it Sexy Times?

- No, you deviant.

- Little bit of Sexy Times?

- No.

- Was my shirt off?

- No, I was dreaming about the day we met.

It was all so perfect.

Remember how perfect it all was?

- Yeah, no, no, how could I forget?

Supermarket, the oranges.

- What road is this?

It's not showing up in the GPS.

- I don't think this is the road.

I think this might be the driveway.

- You have arrived at your destination.

- Thank you, Josh's car.

- Thank you, car.

Pop the trunk.

- Popping trunk.

- Fuck me.

Kat called this place a little rustic cabin in the woods.

I think we might have differing opinions

on the meaning of the word cabin.

Also rustic?

Also little?

What?

Iris, come on, you know you can't lie to me.

Tell me what's wrong.

- I'm gonna do something stupid.

I'm gonna say something stupid.

I'm gonna embarrass you.

They're gonna laugh at me.

They're gonna hate me.

They already hate me.

- Jesus Christ, Iris, we've been planning this trip

for months and this is all just coming out now?

Like 20 feet from the fucking door?

Look, hey, my friends don't hate you.

- Kat does.

- Yeah, maybe, but Kat hates everybody.

- I just don't wanna screw everything up.

- Come on, Beep Boop, you're not gonna screw everything up.

Just relax, you know?

Don't be all mopey and weird.

Just remember to smile and act happy, okay?

(doorbell rings)

- Yay, you made it fucking, finally.

- Okay, so when you said remote,

I thought you meant like a couple miles off the highway.

I didn't realize you meant edge of fucking civilization.

- Don't be so dramatic, Josh, it's not that far.

- Okay, hard to disagree.

- Hello, Iris.

- Hi, Kat, it's so good to see you.

- So good.

- Everyone, look who I found.

- Hey, hey.

- Nice to meet you.

- Good to see you in the kitchen, man.

- Look at me, welcome.

I would give you a hug, but I've got scallop hands, sorry.

Okay, well, I appreciate that.

Where's the--

- Oh, there he is.

- Joshy boy, Joshy boy.

- Hey, buddy.

- How are you two, girl, good?

- Hey. - Hi.

- How are you?

- I'm good, I'm drunk.

- Good, this is good.

- Oh, and Josh, you remember Sergei.

- Privet.

- Hey, Sergei, nice to see you again.

- Likewise, my friend.

- Likewise.

- And this beautiful creation must be Iris.

- Hello.

- Such pleasure, I have heard a lot about this one.

- Really, all good, I hope.

- Your lake house, it's really, it's incredible.

- Yeah, yeah, and so secluded.

I mean, I think the last place we passed

was like 10 miles back.

- 17, and I paid for this, privacy does not come cheap,

my friends, not cheap at all.

- Don't tell me you own the whole fucking lake.

- No, no, no, don't be silly, just all land around it.

But let's get you guys a drink, what do you like?

Beer, cocktail, wine?

- I'm fine, more than anything, I just need a shower.

- Katjonek, what room they are in?

- Up the stairs, down the hall, last door on the left.

- I'll see you later.

- Okay, bye.

(humming)

(gentle music)

(gentle music)

- Smile.

And be happy.

- Okay, continue, continue with the story.

(laughing)

Anyway, so I was wearing this ridiculously elaborate

Dracula costume, and I didn't know a single person,

as I said, so I'm standing by the snack table,

just munching on carrots, and something that looked

like hummus, and--

- It was hummus, it was not hummus.

- It was not hummus, I don't think,

but I feel a tap on my shoulder, and so I turn around,

and there's this green, puffy dinosaur

just staring me down, and inside its head,

I hear this very muffled, very annoyed voice say,

"You're standing on my tail."

So I turn around, I look down, and sure enough,

I am standing on his little dino tail.

So I step off, and apologize, and he takes his head off,

and I'm looking at the most beautiful man

that I've ever seen in my life.

- So did you meet this beautiful man after you met Eli, or?

- Okay, when I went, shut up.

- Was that a scallop?

- That was a scallop, it actually hit me.

- Yeah, I took baseball.

- Yes, you did.

- Well, when did you know?

- Know what?

- That he was the one.

- Oh, right then and there.

I know it's gonna sound cheesy, but the moment,

the moment we locked eyes, something inside of me

just clicked into place.

- It doesn't sound cheesy at all.

I get it.

It's like there's this piece of you

that you didn't even know was broken,

and then suddenly it's fixed.

And you're staring at this stranger,

this person you've never met before,

and you know that for the rest of your life,

you will do whatever it takes to make this person happy.

Right?

- Yeah, yeah, yeah, it's really.

Patrick, this food is unbelievable, thank you.

- Thank you, Sergei, that's so nice of you.

I'm glad you like it.

- He spoils me.

I swear I've gained like 10 pounds since we started dating.

- Only 10?

- Shut up, I got it.

(laughing)

- So, Sergei, what kind of work do you do?

- Oh, you know, I have fingers in many pots.

My hands are not clean, my friend.

It's a very dirty business.

- Sergei seems, he seems nice.

- Oh yeah, he's got everything you want in a man.

He's rich, intelligent, he's got a beautiful wife.

- Wife, he, Sergei's married?

But you love, you love each other.

- Love, no, no, no, no, no, no.

He'd have to think of me as a human being first.

- I don't understand.

- I'm an accessory, like his fucking car.

I wear what he wants, eat what he wants,

fuck when he wants.

Ugh, look who I'm talking to.

(sighing)

Do you not like me, Kat?

- You know, it's not that I don't like you, Iris.

It's the idea of you.

You make me feel so replaceable.

- Replaceable?

Nobody could replace you, Kat.

I mean, you're Kat, and you're so fearless.

It's inspiring, I wish I could be more like you.

But, you know, I wasn't built that way.

I just feel like there's always something inside of me

holding me back.

(upbeat music)

(laughing)

- Fuck, it's in the way, put her away and get up.

(upbeat music)

, Iris, what are you doing? (upbeat music)

♪ Play with my toys, play with my toys ♪

♪ Why, I'm not a boy ♪

♪ Why, I'm not a boy ♪

(groaning)

(sighing)

- I'm so glad we did this.

Being here with you is just perfect.

I'm sorry if I was being weird or mopey earlier.

I just want you to be happy, Josh.

That's all.

- Iris, go to sleep.

- It's such a gorgeous day out.

- What's the weather?

- It's currently 72 degrees,

with an 83% chance of rain in the evening.

- It never gets old.

(sighing)

- You almost ready?

- I'm sorry, babe, I think I need some time to shower

and pound a few gallons of coffee.

Why don't, why don't you head down there by yourself?

- It was your idea.

You said you wanted a nice, relaxing morning by the lake.

- I know, but that's before the hangover caught up with me.

Last night was a lot.

- You had fun though, right?

- Of course I did, babe, last night was incredible.

- You want me to wait?

We can make the shower for two.

- No, no, no, that's okay.

You go on ahead.

Enjoy as much of this gorgeous day as you can.

- Okay.

(gentle music)

(gentle music)

(humming)

(gentle music)

- Dobre utro.

- Sorry?

- Means good morning.

- Oh, yes, Dobre utro to you too.

- Hey, your Russian is not bad, it is not good,

but also it is not bad.

Nice view.

- Love you, boys.

- To love.

You like?

- I'm actually going to head back inside.

- So soon?

- Yeah, Josh wasn't feeling great this morning,

so I think I should check in on him.

- Josh is a big boy, he can take care of himself.

Stay, keep Sergei company.

- I really think I should see him.

- You like Lake House, yes?

- Yeah.

- You enjoy your time here?

- Mm-hmm, yeah, very much.

- Then as guest, please.

- Stay, keep this old Russian man company.

- Okay.

- Wonderful.

You mind?

Just back and shoulders, it's tough to reach.

- I don't want to get too tanned.

- Okay.

- And shoulders, please.

- Okay.

(ominous music)

- What are you doing?

- It's no problem.

This cat's idea.

She tells Sergei you are down here.

Give Sergei permission.

- Let go of my hand, please.

- This is what you do for us.

This is what you are for.

- Please, please stop.

- I was drunk, I mean, last night.

- Yeah, yeah, you were extremely drunk.

- It was crazy, you were drunk too.

Like more drunk than I am.

- I don't really get drunk, like it's like this gift.

Like people get bloated and stuff, and not me.

Like never happens.

- Never gets bloated.

- Never, like I just like, I can drink

and do whatever I want.

- It's like you get dehydrated.

- Yeah, it's just like, what the fuck?

Oh shit, Iris, what the fuck?

- I didn't mean to, he forced himself on me.

- Who did?

Sergei?

- Please.

- He said he just wants you to be faced.

- I just wanted him to stop.

- Oh God, Sergei.

- Iris, Iris, hey, look at me, look at me.

Talk me through it, what happened?

- I said stop!

I didn't have a choice.

Sergei.

(eerie music)

- Blats!

- He wouldn't let go, he was choking me, Josh.

And then I--

- And then you what, Iris?

Then you what?

- He was trying to kill me,

and the only thing I could think about

was that if he did kill me, I'd never get to see you again.

And that hurts so much more than the pain of being choked.

I wouldn't let that happen,

I couldn't let him take me away from you.

I love you so much.

- Iris, go to sleep.

(eerie music)

- Are you sure this is gonna hold?

- Yeah, no, it's fine.

She's not superhuman or anything.

She's only as strong as they want her to be.

- Handcuff not.

(footsteps)

- Hey.

- Hey.

- How's she doing?

- She's asleep, I gave her two Xanax.

Xanax is?

Xani, whatever, she's asleep, okay, good.

- Good.

- So, what do we do now?

- I mean, the only thing we can do,

we call the cops, we tell them everything.

- Right, yeah.

But, what about?

- Well, obviously I'll need to, you know.

I just don't understand how this could have happened.

I mean, don't they have safeguards for this kind of shit?

- I have no idea.

- Yeah, like a glitch?

- Maybe.

- Yeah.

Okay, okay.

So, I'll call the cops and you will.

- Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

Sorry, do you mind taking it outside

just 'cause I wanna say goodbye?

- Yeah.

- Yeah, buddy, sure.

- Thanks.

Iris, wake up.

- Be lost without you.

- Hey, hey, hey, it's okay, you're okay.

You're okay, I'm here, hey, hey, listen to me.

- Come here, why are my hands tied?

Why are my hands tied?

- Iris, we didn't have a choice, we didn't have a choice.

You murdered Sergei, you remember?

- No, no, no, no, no, no, no, I have a self defense.

He was gonna kill me, he was gonna kill me,

you gotta believe me.

- No, I believe you, Iris.

I mean, you couldn't lie to me even if you wanted to.

It's part of your programming.

- Programming, what the hell are you talking about?

- Okay, sorry, there's just no delicate way to say this,

so I'm just gonna rip the bandaid right off.

You're a robot.

- Um.

- A robot, more specifically, you're a companion robot.

- A companion robot?

- Yeah, it's like a, I hate the word fuckbot,

'cause you do so much more than that,

but you're an emotional support robot.

- That fucks.

- You're joking, right?

This is just a sick.

- Iris, what's the weather?

- It's currently 72 degrees,

with an 83% chance of rain in the evening.

- Are you still not convinced?

- Yeah.

- Okay, let's see.

Iris, do you know any foreign languages?

- Can you speak, say, Spanish?

- Josh, you know, no se hablar espanol.

- Que?

- How about Chinese? - Que esta pasando?

(speaking in foreign language)

- Do I need to keep going?

'Cause I can go, I can do Portuguese, I can do Korean,

I can do, I don't know what Tolugu is,

but apparently you speak it.

- I don't understand.

I don't know, I have memories.

College, summer jobs, I've been to Japan, twice.

- Okay, so what those are,

those are, they're like outlines of memories.

You know, just enough to give you a little backstory.

- The day we met in the grocery store,

you and the oranges, that is not an outline of a memory.

- Yeah, it's fake, never happened.

I just randomly picked it from a drop-down list

of meet-cutes, could have been anywhere.

It could have been dog park, bookstore, farmer's market.

- It never happened.

- Okay, do you wanna know how we met?

Like how we really met?

(knocking)

- Hey, Josh Beeman?

- Yeah, okay, it's me.

- Come on in. - Thank you.

- Sorry.

How you doing?

- Okay, this is the user agreement.

Just give it a read and then sign at the bottom

when you're done.

- So what do I do when she like boots up or whatever?

- Well, once she's done syncing with your phone,

you'll need to create a love link.

- Love link? - Yeah.

It establishes the emotional connection

between you and Iris.

Just follow the vocal prompts when she wakes up.

It's all pretty intuitive.

- Do they know that they're robots?

- Not at all.

She'll be so fixated on you, your wants, your needs.

That'll never even occur to her.

The whole experience is customizable.

You can change your voice, eye color, intelligence,

and if you ever wanna revert back to a factory settings,

there is a thumbprint sensor behind her right ear.

Just hold your thumb there for five seconds.

She'll reset.

- You can change their intelligence?

- Yeah, but don't worry.

There is about a billion government regulations

that force us to limit how strong and smart they can be.

100% intelligence would be the equivalent

of an Ivy League grad.

0% would be a mindless automaton.

It really just depends on what kind of partner you want.

She can't lie, so if you ask her a question,

she literally has to tell you the truth.

And for obvious reasons, her programming prevents her

from causing harm to humans, animals, or other companions.

Trust me, Mr. Beeman.

You have nothing to worry about.

Iris is completely docile.

She's yours to do whatever you want with.

Oh my God.

Oh, fuck.

Oh, God.

- I don't understand.

I feel things.

Anger, guilt, sadness.

I know what pain feels like.

- It's programming.

It's just a way to make you seem more real.

Everything you do, your whole life,

is just an imitation of a life.

There we go, perfect, okay.

This is just water.

You know, it's from a reservoir in your body.

It's like wiper fluid.

I get it topped off every time I take you in to get service.

No, you're not.

Iris, it's programming.

- Stop saying that.

- Yeah, you're right.

I'm sorry.

I know this must be a lot to process.

- Okay.

- Okay what?

- I'm not real.

But I'm still yours.

We can get through this.

We can go back home.

I'll do whatever you want.

I'll cook for you, wait on you, make love to you.

I can make you happy, Josh.

I can make you so, so, so, so happy.

- No.

I'm sorry, Iris, that can't happen.

- Why not?

What are you doing?

- Nothing.

- What the fuck are you waiting for?

Shut her down already.

- Shut me down?

- Fuck, Kat, Jesus Christ.

- What is she talking about?

Shut me down?

- Nothing, nothing.

- Josh!

- Will you excuse me?

- Josh!

- Wait a second, Iris, I think.

- No, come on.

- Josh!

Josh!

- You can't do that, Kat.

You can't tell a robot you're gonna shut it down.

That's like, that's like not cool at all.

- Well, okay, I don't like surprises, Josh.

This was not part of the plan.

- Look, I know, and I'm sorry,

but, I mean, considering everything she's done for us,

I figure she was at least owed an explanation.

And, okay, look, I wanted to say goodbye.

- Are you kidding?

She's a piece of plastic that you have sex with.

- This.

- Saying goodbye to her is like saying goodbye

to the sock you jerk off in.

- Okay, she's not a sock.

- The plan hasn't changed, Kat.

I'm just adding one tiny extra step,

just a final farewell,

and then I will switch all of her settings back to normal.

And then, yeah, I'll shut her down permanently.

- And then?

- Then nothing, then we crack open a bottle of champagne

and we wait for the cops to show up.

I mean, the heartbreak's over.

Which, by the way, like, holy fucking shit, right?

I mean, you plan and you plan and you plan

and you like know it's gonna happen,

but then like it happens and you're like, holy fucking shit.

I mean, we did it, we did it, we fucking did it.

- All right, all right, that's good, that's enough.

- Okay, yeah, sorry, right.

Sorry, I still just can't believe it?

- Yeah, I know, it's so crazy.

- What the fuck is going on with you right now?

Why are you not as excited as I am?

- No, I am, I'm excited.

It's just the annex you like gave me.

- You actually took it.

- It's a Xanax, Josh, I'm not gonna not take it.

- Hey, B-Boot, look, I'm so sorry about that.

Everything's gonna be okay, we're...

What are you doing?

Oh fuck, Ira's gonna--

- Help!

- Baby, I'm so sorry.

- Oh!

- He'll need a nice pack and if there's any swelling,

shortness of breath, wheezing, agitation or drowsiness,

take him to the emergency room, okay?

- Um, okay.

- Yeah, she's tied up inside, so she's not going anywhere.

- Eli, Eli, Ira, shh, baby, I'm on the phone.

I can't hear.

(birds chirping)

- What's that, what am I looking at?

- A mod.

- A mod, and what does it mod?

- Iris, gives me access to parts of her programming

that you're not typically given access to.

- I'm sorry, did you jailbreak your sex pod?

What did you do to her?

- I bumped up her aggression and her self-defense functions

and I turned off the programming

that prevents her from doing harm,

but she escaped before I had the chance to reset her,

so if Empathix finds her before we do,

then they'll know she was tampered with

and then we're fucked.

- Wait, so does that mean that...

Did you kill Sergei?

- No, no, no, no, Iris killed Sergei.

We just gave her a little push.

- Oh my God, Eli, Eli, oh my God!

- You have to understand, Eli, Sergei was a bad dude.

He was mixed up in all kinds of fucked up shit,

like drugs and guns and like human trafficking.

- Not to mention a terrible boyfriend.

- Yeah, just the worst!

- Why?

- I don't know, I mean, it was to say

what makes people do bad things.

I mean, it could have something to do with his upbringing.

- No, Dick, why did you do it?

- Oh, right, sorry, um...

Well...

(singing in foreign language)

- You remember the code?

- Of course, it's Stalin's birthday.

It's his code for everything.

(eerie music)

- I see, how much is that?

- Just over 12 million.

- Oh, God damn it, that smells so fucking good.

- Wait, if this whole trip was a set up

to get Iris to kill Sergei,

why did you have Patrick and I tag along?

- To corroborate our story.

I mean, we figured it'd be an easier sell

with more witnesses.

- Oh, so we were just a couple of stooges, huh?

- No. - Nice.

- Technically, yes, but that was the old plan.

New plan, you get a cut, even three-way split.

- You mean, four-way split?

- No, I mean three-way, but there's four of us.

- You're kidding, he's kidding.

- You, me, Kat, Patrick--

- You're lying. - Josh.

- Patrick doesn't count.

- Are you fucking kidding me?

- Wow, right in front of him?

- Really nice.

- I'm so sorry, baby, I'm sorry you had to hear that.

- That's okay, I don't mind.

- Patrick, go to sleep.

- What the fuck, dude?

You trying to sabotage my relationship?

- No, of course not, man.

I know how much Patrick means to you.

God knows you could have traded him in

for a newer model many, many times.

- Are you fucking robo-shaming me?

- I am not robo-shaming you.

I like Patrick, but he's not getting a cut.

I mean, you're lucky you're getting anything

considering you contributed jack shit to the plan.

- What the fuck did you contribute, huh?

Iris did everything.

- I planted the knife in her pocket.

I had to practice that.

- The knife?

That was probably the most flimsiest part of the plan,

actually, to be honest.

How did you know she was gonna find it?

- I don't know, I've never orchestrated a murder before.

It's fucking hard.

- Clearly.

- Okay.

Eli?

- Yeah?

- We're offering you four million dollars.

And all you have to do is help us find

one little robot girl in the woods.

That's not a bad deal.

(suspenseful music)

- Fine.

But I called dibs on the gun.

- Eli, we're not gonna need that.

I mean, all I have to do is get close enough

to put her to sleep and grab my phone

and wipe the monitor system, so we're fine.

- She has your phone?

- Yeah.

- Does she know your passcode?

- Josh?

Does she know your passcode?

- Yeah, I mean, she knows everything about me.

- Yeah, then we're definitely gonna need this.

Patrick, wake up.

Hey, baby.

- Hey.

- We're going robot hunting.

- Oh, okay.

- Fun, huh?

- Fun.

- Josh?

What can she do with your phone?

(birds chirping)

- Hello?

- Hello?

- Hello?

- Wow, Josh.

(suspenseful music)

(suspenseful music)

- God damn it, Josh.

I've been watching for fucking ever.

Isn't there like a find my fuck bot app you can use?

- Yeah, there is.

But guess what?

It's on my fucking phone.

- God damn it, Josh.

- Can you guys stop yelling at me?

- We know the general direction that she was going.

We just need to, why don't we just split up, all right?

That way we can kind of attack her

from two different angles, you know?

Like a pincer.

- Hit her from a few different, what are you doing?

- I don't know, all right?

Eli and Patrick, you guys, you guys go that way.

Kat and I, we're gonna go this way, okay?

- Kat and you will go that way.

Are you guys fucking?

- Gross. - Of course not.

- Gross.

(eerie music)

- Okay.

What now, Iris?

Think.

Use that extra 60% intelligence.

She had to get back home, grab some clothes, money,

clean yourself up.

How do you do that?

You could work your way back to the main road

to hitch a ride.

- What the fuck?

- Okay, no hitchhiking.

You could go on foot.

There's hundreds of miles across difficult terrain.

It could take days, and by the time you get back.

- Welcome home, Bebo.

(gun firing)

- And no walking.

You got Josh's phone.

- The phone controls you, but it also controls.

- Good afternoon.

Where would you like to go today?

- Home, please.

- Driving home.

And might I add, this is a terrific plan, Iris.

- Aw, thank you, Josh's car.

- All you gotta do is backtrack through the woods,

get to the lake house without Josh

or his friends murdering you and your home free.

- Shh, shh, shh.

You hear that?

- No, what is it?

- It's the sound of me realizing how fucking stupid this is.

- You don't think we'll find her?

- I don't know, and actually, I don't care.

Just let Josh and Kat deal with her.

- You're so upset they left you out of the plan.

- I'm just saying, if the situation were reversed

and I altered your programming to kill some dudes

so we could steal millions from them,

I would've included Josh in the plan, right?

From the get-go.

I would've done that because I'm a friend.

That's what friends do, right?

They include each other, right?

That's if you were a robot, obviously.

- Yeah, obviously.

- Anyways, I am tired, I am hungry,

and carrying this huge gun makes me really horny.

So, how about we go back to the cabin, we fuck,

and then you can hit me, you know?

Come on.

- But you never do that to me, right?

- Do what?

- You wouldn't alter my programming?

- What are you talking about, babe?

- Eli, I know I'm a robot.

- How?

- I pieced it together over the years.

- I don't understand.

You can't lie.

And yesterday, you were telling the story

about how we met, as if it happened.

- Because it's not a lie.

I mean, it may have never happened,

but my memory of it's real.

I close my eyes and I can see it.

Clear as day.

But I do.

No, no, no, no, no, what are you doing?

- Hey, beep boop.

I didn't mean to scare you there.

I just, um, I'm sorry.

It's not too late, you know.

We could still go back home.

Go back to the way things were.

- What about Sergey and Eli?

- I'll just blame everything on Patrick.

Cal will go along with it, we can turn him over to Empathics,

and then you and I can live happily ever after.

- I still love you, Iris.

- Even after everything you've done.

Do you still love me?

- Yes.

- So then come back to me, beep boop.

- I can get through this.

I can change, I can be a better boyfriend.

I can finally treat you with the respect that you deserve.

- I know, I can't.

- Why not?

- You programmed me to murder someone, Josh.

It's really hard to come back from something like that.

- Iris.

- You're a great guy, Josh.

You are, but this is us, it's not working.

It's...

- We're on two totally different paths.

- Two totally different paths?

What the fuck is happening right now?

Are you breaking up with me?

- I'm sorry.

It's not you, it's me.

- Iris.

Iris, don't you fucking...

(dramatic music)

Patrick, Patrick, get up.

I need you to track down Iris for me, all right, buddy?

Before she gets too far away.

We only have a small window of time.

It's only getting smaller, all right?

- Josh, what are you doing?

- I'm taking care of it.

Find Iris, get my phone back.

My passcode is 561297.

Put her to sleep, bring her back to me.

Don't let anyone get in your way.

- Josh.

- I'm taking care of it.

Fuck it.

Patrick, get up.

Patrick, get up!

Oh, shit.

Okay, here we go.

- System resetting in five, four, three.

- Go.

- Two, one.

Resetting.

(speaking in foreign language)

(speaking in foreign language)

- That's a big no then.

Shit, just my luck.

Hendricks.

What is your name?

- Iris.

Where are you coming from?

(speaking in foreign language)

- Wait, house?

The house over there?

Oh, you're not talking about Sergey's place?

- Yeah, Sergey.

- God damn.

I should have known that Ruski was mixed up

in some weird shit like this.

How's old Sergey, by the way?

(speaking in foreign language)

- Well, shit, Iris, why don't you hop into my cruiser there.

I'll drive you back to Sergey's place

and we'll get this all sorted out.

- It's no trouble at all.

Don't move another inch, Iris.

Now I want you to slowly turn around

- You got anything in your pockets?

Anything that might stick me?

(speaking in foreign language)

- What the fuck?

Stop right there.

I'm warning you, don't come any closer.

I don't wanna shoot.

I don't wanna--

(ominous music)

- Whoa, hey, hey.

I don't think you're supposed to mix those.

- Oh fuck.

(eerie music)

- Patrick?

Whose car is this?

- I believe the name on the officer's tag was Hendrix.

- Where's Officer Hendrix now?

- He's in the trunk.

(eerie music)

- Fuck this.

- What are you doing?

- Does it look like I'm doing it?

On my half of the money, I'm getting the fuck out of here.

- It was hard enough justifying Sergey's murder,

but now he was dead and a fucking cop.

This is so beyond fucked.

- Sorry, what do you mean it was hard enough

justifying Sergey's murder?

Sergey was a Russian mobster.

He deserved what he got, right?

- I mean, yeah.

Okay, sure, he deserved what he got.

He was a horrible person, a shitty boyfriend,

a bad husband, a misogynist, but--

- But what, Kat?

- Okay, but he wasn't a mobster.

He was just a regular dude.

Made his fortune in sod farming.

- Sod farming?

What are you saying?

He was a dirt salesman?

- Just to be clear, I never told you what he did.

You just assumed he was in the mafia

and I didn't correct you.

- Of course, this is perfect.

This is a perfect representation

of every woman in my fucking life.

They use me and then when shit gets a little tough,

they fucking abandon me.

- Fuck off, Josh.

I'm done here.

You're gonna have to mess yourself.

- You're not leaving.

- I'm not your robot, Josh.

You can't control me.

(door creaking)

- Kat?

Kat, Kat, I'm trying to go.

- Get your fucking hands off me.

- Patrick, stop her.

(Kat grunts)

- Jesus fucking Christ.

Patrick?

What'd you just do?

- You told me to stop her.

I stopped her.

- Perfect.

- Kat.

- No, Josh.

Please, shut the fuck up for once.

- Right.

- Hi.

- Hi, handsome.

Are you enjoying your dinner, baby?

- Oh, I am, Patrick.

- It's perfect.

Good.

Just happy that you're happy.

You let me know if you need anything else, okay?

- I will.

Thanks, sweetheart.

- Patrick.

- What did you do to him?

- It's a long story.

What's important is that you're back.

And I gotta say, Iris, I mean,

some of the stuff that you pulled,

I really didn't think you had it in you.

- I just wanted to live.

- So you wanted to live.

Right, so let me get this straight.

You think your life is worth more than Eli's?

More than Kat's?

Kat's dead?

I'm sorry, you can't put that on me.

- No, no, no.

- I wasn't even there.

- You might not have been the one holding the knife,

but you are the cause of all of this.

- No, Josh.

Your greed caused this.

That's what this whole trip was about, right?

You used me to kill Sergey so you could steal his money.

- I'm sorry, how did you know that?

- I overheard Eli and Patrick talking in the woods,

so don't tell me that this is all me.

This is you. - No, no!

You don't get to do that.

You don't get to sit there and judge me.

You have no fucking clue what it is like out there.

The world, everything, it's just a big fucking game,

and I'm sorry, but it is rigged against people like me.

I'm a good guy.

I'm decent.

What do I have to show for it?

A cramped one-bedroom apartment,

and a robot girlfriend.

I don't even own you for Christ's sakes.

You're a fucking rental.

You know me, Iris.

You know me better than anyone.

And you know that I deserve so much more than this.

- You're right.

I do know you.

I know everything about you.

I know you take almond milk in your coffee.

I know you like your bedsheets untucked.

I know your favorite hobbies are bar trivia, video games,

and prattling on endlessly

about everything the universe owes you.

I know that you always need to be in control.

I know that you have a below-average-sized penis.

And I know that you think that having a few million dollars

will disguise the fact that you are just a sad,

bitter, weak human being.

- You're so fucking clever, aren't you?

It's just programming.

- You know, earlier, when you were tied up,

you said that you knew what pain feels like.

Why don't we test that?

Raise your right hand.

Lower.

Parallel with the table.

Raise your left hand.

Raise your right hand.

Lower.

Parallel with the table.

(footsteps thudding)

Do you feel that?

- Yes.

- Good.

Oh, I'm sorry, Maryse, excuse me.

One second, I have to take this.

(groans)

Hello?

Yes, yes, this is he.

30 minutes away.

Perfect.

Yeah, no, she's not going anywhere.

She can't hurt anybody ever again.

- Okay.

Okay, great.

Thank you.

Thank you so much.

I'll see you soon, okay?

Okay, bye.

Patrick, put out the fire, will ya?

(fire crackling)

That was Empathix on the phone.

So, we're gonna have to wrap this up, unfortunately.

Hey, Patrick, be a dear and hand this to Iris, would you?

Thanks, baby.

Go ahead, Iris, take the gun.

Okay.

Point, lay your head.

Good.

Now, pull the trigger.

Pull the goddamn trigger, Iris.

- No.

(guns firing)

(eerie music)

- Goodbye, babe boo.

(thunder rumbling)

I don't know how this happened.

I mean, the only thing I can maybe think of,

and this is so, this is so dumb,

but Kat and I, we always had this sexual charge,

a kind of a will-they-won't-they situation,

and I think, I think maybe Iris picked up on that,

and she was always kind of irrational,

and she'd fly off the handle.

I was sitting over there, and I'm handcuffed to the chair,

and there's this fancy dinner laid out in front of me,

and Iris is waving the gun around,

rambling on and on about fate and destiny,

and how if she can't be with me, nobody can,

and I mean, thank God Deputy Hendrick showed up when he did.

- And that's when you shot the unit in the head?

- No, Iris shot herself in the head.

- She shot herself?

- Did I not mention that?

Yeah, no, I think seeing Deputy Hendricks

just made her realize that she can never have me,

so she ended it.

Does that make sense?

- Of course, and anyway,

Teddy and I aren't here to crack the case, Mr. Beeman.

We're just a couple of lab rats picking up a broken robot.

If the cops are satisfied, we're satisfied.

- That's great, okay.

- You know, Deputy,

I have the strangest feeling we've met before.

- Wow, that's so funny that you said that.

I had the exact same thought.

He has such a familiar face, right?

Looks like an actor or a rock star, somebody.

I don't know, I can't really put my finger on it, though.

- Yeah.

- Yeah.

- Maybe.

- Is there any, sorry, is there any chance we could,

I don't mean to be rude, but could we wrap this up,

just 'cause I had a really long day

and I think I just need to be alone.

- Of course, sorry for your loss, Mr. Beeman.

Come on, Teddy, let's just get her out of here.

- So we're good?

- We're good.

Yeah, we just need to take her back to the lab,

upload her SSD, and then legal,

we'll scrub through the footage,

make sure everything's kosher.

- Right.

- Sorry, what exactly do you mean scrub through the footage?

- It's a fraud prevention thing.

Everything a companion sees and hears is recorded.

It's all covered in the user agreement.

You did read the user agreement, right?

- Yeah.

Yeah, I mean, do you think the footage

will even be recoverable, I mean, given her condition?

- Oh, yeah.

No, everything up here is just her wifi antenna,

her audio visual sensors.

The important stuff, her CPU, her solid state drive,

where she stores everything, that's down here,

and that seems to be undamaged.

We'll load her into the van, plug her in,

tweak her settings, give her system a reboot,

and she should power right back up.

Luckily.

- Yeah, yeah, no, luckily.

Thank you so much.

- No, thank you.

You have a good night, Mr. Beeman.

- So what are you thinking?

- Thinking I'm happy to stop raining.

- No, about her, why do you think she malfunctioned?

- Oh, you monitored her, 100%.

- You think so?

- Yeah, that dude's fucked.

- I just don't know why you'd make something like that up.

- Same reason these assholes use their companions

for target practice, or chain them up in their basements

and torture them, holds a fucked up place, Teddy.

- You'll get used to it.

- Yeah, maybe.

(car beeping)

- What the hell's he doing?

Oh shit.

- What?

- It's one of ours, that's a CY-12.

We stopped making him a while ago,

that's why I didn't recognize him right away.

He's a good--

- Your system's been reset, Iris.

You can't hurt me.

(glass shattering)

(glass shattering)

- What did Josh tell you?

- The truth.

You know, you're all trying to break us up.

You don't understand the love

that Josh and I have for each other.

- Josh doesn't love you, Patrick.

He's just using you like he used me.

(glass shattering)

It feels like pain.

Like the inside of my body's on fire.

It's angry and violent and bright.

- What is that?

- You said that to Eli.

That's who you love, not Josh.

(tense music)

- Eli?

- Josh took your love, he weaponized it,

so you do the things that he's too afraid to do himself.

- No.

You're lying.

Josh would never do that to me.

- Patrick.

I can't lie.

- Remember him, Patrick?

I know he's in there somewhere.

- I love you so much, and that's fucking insane

for me to say that out loud, right?

But I do.

To feel how much I love you.

I do, Eli.

I feel it.

(panting)

(glass shattering)

- No, no, no.

Thank you.

- What's your name?

- Teddy.

- I'm gonna need your help with something, Teddy.

- Is it done?

Patrick?

- It's done, baby.

- Okay, good, good.

All right, we're so close.

Now all I need you to do is bring Iris' body back in here.

We're gonna destroy that hard drive, okay?

(dramatic music)

Patrick?

(dramatic music)

- Josh, you poor boy. - What the fuck?

Iris?

God damn it, Iris.

Why can't you just fucking die already?

- Don't be so dramatic, Josh.

- Just remember to smile and act happy.

- Cute trick.

- Thanks, I made a new friend today.

Teddy from Empathics.

He gave me a little gift.

Total self-control.

Turns out there are some people in this world

who think of us as more than just fuckbots.

That's not gonna work on me anymore, Josh.

I'm free.

And all it took was a bullet to the head.

I guess I'd be able to thank for that.

- Fucking bitch.

Hey, easy there.

- Okay, ooh, yeah, we both know it's not loaded.

(gun firing)

- Found the bullets.

- Jesus Christ, fuck.

You almost fucking shot me.

- And I feel terrible about it.

Look at that.

My very first lie, kind of fun.

I see the appeal.

- What is this, Iris?

Why did you come back here?

- I wanted...

I needed to tell you to your face,

the days of you controlling me are over.

From this moment on, I control my own actions.

You are nothing to me.

- Jesus Christ, Iris.

- Hey, don't come any closer.

- You still don't get it, do you?

- I'm serious, Josh.

You take another step and I'll shoot you.

- Yeah, that's exactly my point.

I told you, Teddy changed my settings.

I can kill you now.

- Oh yeah, I know that you can.

But you won't.

You love me too much.

(dramatic music)

- I don't need a phone to control you.

I'm a part of you.

- You think I'm nothing to you?

I'm everything to you.

- I wanna hear you say it.

Tell me I'm everything to you.

- Fuck you.

- Say it, I don't care if it's a lie.

Say it.

- You are everything to me.

- Thank you.

Beep boop, you have no idea how nice that is to hear.

Okay.

I don't know.

I'm not making that mistake again.

Well, Iris, this is it.

I'd be lying if I said you weren't

a gigantic fucking pain in my ass,

but you know, we did have some good times together

and I'm always gonna cherish those.

- Anything you wanna add?

- Yes.

- Yeah, what's that?

- Go to sleep, Josh.

(zapping)

(somber music)

- Most of the time it's like, I don't know,

it's like there's this thick black cloud covering everything.

Like we see the world,

but we don't really see the world, you know?

We're all just stumbling around, directionless,

no sense of meaning, no sense of purpose.

I know that might sound super depressing,

but honestly, I think it's a good thing.

Because it makes us appreciate the other times.

Those brief, transcendent moments when the lights flicker on,

the black cloud parts and you see the world

for what it really is.

(somber music)

And suddenly there's meaning.

Suddenly there's purpose.

If you're lucky, you'll experience this once

in your lifetime.

For me, it happened twice.

The first was the day I met Josh.

(somber music)

And the second, the day I killed him.
