Transcript
00:00Hello, my name is Clara.
00:02I'm an artificial friend.
00:05Good morning, artificial friends.
00:06Good morning, store manager.
00:08I know artificial friends aren't as popular as they used to be,
00:12but I still firmly believe that all of you older AFs
00:15have a fighting chance at finding homes.
00:17Glorious sun, please let today be my day.
00:20Let me find a friend.
00:23If I do get chosen, how will I know if my person and I are a good match?
00:26Just remember everything you learned and hopefully they'll come to love you.
00:29Like a member of the family or...
00:31Family dog.
00:33I'm Josie.
00:35I'm Clara.
00:36Honey, if I'm gonna buy you a robot,
00:38I'm not going to be spending money on an old outdated one.
00:41You said that I can choose and I choose Clara.
00:43She's special.
00:44And she's odd special.
00:4520% off.
00:50AFs are like a blank canvas.
00:54It's an imbecile.
00:55It would appear.
00:56We come out of the lab with the intelligence of a toddler.
00:58Is that where the sun lives?
01:00And then we learn everything from our humans.
01:01There you go.
01:02And then slowly...
01:05Well, that's dumb.
01:07Humans, they ask so much of you.
01:09It's all perfect until it's not.
01:12You put that idea in her head.
01:13Just get out of there, Fred.
01:15There are things in this house.
01:19Josie?
01:22They have none of you considered.
01:27Consider this a trial period.
01:29You're still under warranty.
01:30And I won't hesitate for a second to send you back.
01:34And then it's back to the factory and your parts will be melted down for next-gen AFs.
01:40Whoa.
01:43Glorious sun.
01:44I'm coming to your house.
01:46Just be face to face.
01:49I know the answers are out there.
01:51Please show me the way to heal this family.
01:53I got you.
01:54I got you.
01:55I won't let go.
01:57And save us all from the darkness.
02:00And certain doom.
02:08Okay, thank you.
02:09I love you.
02:10I got you, babe.
02:15You're not the droid we're looking for, honey.
02:17Chrissy, I think that we could become really great friends and I just-
02:19Get your hand in the box?
02:21Get your hand in the box!
02:22Get your hand in the box!
