00:00My name is Megan. My boyfriend Mark disappeared on our wedding day. He didn't run away, I know he's not
00:06that kind of man.
00:07But the cops couldn't find him. The cameras couldn't find him. The whole world couldn't find him.
00:12Four years. I'd almost given up. Then my best friend brought me to an underground store. She said they had
00:17shared boyfriends.
00:19Hyperrealistic robot dolls. But among the seven or eight robots in that room, I saw his face.
00:23He wasn't a doll. He was moles my boyfriend who'd been missing for four years strapped to a bed, being
00:27sold as merchandise.
00:28The sales associate said, the robots need to be charged to activate.
00:31But I knew. What they really needed was electric shocks to force these broken, tortured dolls to get hard.
00:35To get a membership. To save him, I did the most shameful thing. I used that room and unplugged him
00:39in.
00:39I used him and us other rotobies. He was crying, and I'd only keep going.
00:49Jennifer, do you think he'll cry today? He always looks so composed. He'll definitely cry.
00:54He looks at you like you hung the moon. Today, he'll be a mess.
00:58Stop it!
01:02Megan, the ceremony's about to start. But is the groom ready?
01:10He's not out yet?
01:24Mark? Mark, where are you?
01:32Megan, don't panic. Maybe he just stepped out to take a call.
01:37His phone is with me. He didn't bring it today. How could he be taking a call?
01:42Megan, should we wait a little longer?
01:47Don't wait. Cancel it.
01:54He vanished from the world that day.
02:09Mom.
02:10Megan, did you eat today?
02:14Yes.
02:15Oh, honey, I know you can't let go, but it's been four years.
02:19Don't you think it's time to think about yourself?
02:23Mom, I can't.
02:26Megan, your friend Jennifer came to see me today.
02:29She said you've been in a bad state lately, and she wants to take you somewhere to relax.
02:34I think you should go.
02:37Where?
02:38She said it's an underground store.
02:40For women, apparently.
02:42I don't know about those things, but if you want to go, I'll go with you.
02:48Okay.
02:50I'll go.
02:53I knew you'd come.
02:55Come on, I promise.
02:57Once you're inside, you'll forget everything.
03:01I didn't know that after that day, my life would be upended again.
03:05But not to relax, because I saw his face again.
03:21Good evening, ladies.
03:22How can I help you?
03:24Just browsing.
03:25It's her first time.
03:26I'm showing her around.
03:28You look tired, miss.
03:29We have special services here that might help you relax.
03:38What's behind that door?
03:40The VIP section.
03:41Members only.
03:42We offer hyper-realistic companion robots in there.
03:45We call them shared boyfriends.
03:47Robots?
03:48Very realist.
03:49From appearance to texture, we've perfected it.
03:52First time, ten minutes free.
03:54Would you like to try?
03:59Oh, fine.
04:01I'll try.
04:04Ten minutes.
04:05I'll knock when it's over.
04:07If you need to activate the robot, the power port is on the side of the bed.
04:16I told myself, it's just a resemblance.
04:19There are plenty of people who look alike, but...
04:26Two minds.
04:28Same spots.
04:30Height.
04:30Bone structure.
04:31The curve of his brow.
04:33All the same.
04:34Not a coincidence.
04:35It was him.
04:36A charging cable.
04:38They said it was how you turn on the robot.
04:40But I knew it wasn't charging.
04:42It was electric shock.
04:44Forcing his body to respond.
04:54To save him, I did the most shameful thing.
04:57I plugged that cable in.
04:59I used that room.
05:00I...
05:01Made those sounds in front of him.
05:02I didn't know if he was still conscious.
05:04But if he was, he saw...
05:06What I did for him.
05:18How was the experience?
05:22Good.
05:23How do I get a membership?
05:27So?
05:28How was it?
05:28I told you I wasn't lying.
05:30Yeah.
05:30It was good.
05:32I got a membership.
05:35Really?
05:35That's great.
05:36We can come together from now on.
05:39From that day on, I went every week.
05:42I became his customer in front of Mark.
05:46And Jennifer.
05:47She always smiled and said,
05:49You're getting happier every day.
05:53And I was waiting for a chance
05:55to take him away from here.
06:01I've been here four times now.
06:03Every time I pretend to be just another customer.
06:06Every time I plug that cable in
06:08and watch his body controls from the shocks.
06:14But this time,
06:16something was different.
06:23Robots don't cry.
06:25Robots don't have tear ducts.
06:27Robots don't look at me like that!
06:32Mark, is that you?
06:34If it's you, blink once.
06:38So?
06:42I'm not leaving.
06:44I'm taking you.
06:50How was today?
06:52Does 07 deliver?
06:54Jennifer,
06:55have you ever used your 07?
06:57A few times, why?
07:01Do you know he looks exactly like Mark?
07:04I had the store custom make it
07:06to look like Mark.
07:07You've been obsessed with him.
07:08I was trying to help you relax.
07:10Come on!
07:11Let me treat you to some late night food.
07:12Oh, and by the way,
07:1307 is amazing.
07:15Every time I use him,
07:15my legs are jelly.
07:16Don't you think?
07:17Jennifer had used him more than once.
07:19She kept calling him 07.
07:20But I knew.
07:21She was telling me,
07:22Your man, I've had him.
07:23More than once.
07:31911 emergency.
07:33What is your emergency?
07:39This looks remarkably human, but...
07:45This is silicone.
07:47High-grade synthetic silicone.
07:50Not human tissue.
07:53Impossible!
07:54I saw him cry last night.
07:56He moved!
07:57He...
07:58Megan,
07:59I told you.
08:01I had the store custom make it
08:03to look like Mark.
08:04It was to help you relax.
08:05It was never a real person.
08:06She had planned everything.
08:08From the cops arriving
08:09to the silicone sample
08:10to that line,
08:11I had it custom made for you.
08:12Every step,
08:13she was ahead of me.
08:14Officer,
08:15this might be a misunderstanding.
08:16This young lady is a member of ours.
08:18She's been under a lot of emotional strain lately.
08:19O7 is our latest custom model.
08:21We can achieve 99% similarity
08:23with just a photo.
08:23That's part of our business.
08:25Megan,
08:25I understand your feelings.
08:26But the evidence site shows
08:28this is indeed a hyper-realistic robot.
08:30We can't take action without evidence.
08:32If you find new evidence,
08:33contact us.
08:36Megan,
08:37let's go.
08:38You're exhausted.
08:39The cops believed the silicone sample.
08:42Jennifer believed her own lie.
08:44But that tear was real.
08:46That go was real.
08:48He's in there.
08:49Alive.
08:50Being sold as a robot.
08:52Silicone can be faked.
08:53But the eyes can't.
09:00Megan?
09:00It's so late.
09:01Are you okay?
09:02Jennifer?
09:02I want to go back.
09:03I want to be sure.
09:04Megan,
09:05they've blacklisted you.
09:06You called the cops last night.
09:07They won't let you in.
09:08Then you talk to them.
09:09You know them.
09:16I talked to the boss.
09:17He said you can keep coming.
09:20Really?
09:22But
09:23there are conditions.
09:25What conditions?
09:26Thomas said,
09:27first,
09:28your rate will be double everyone else's.
09:30Fine.
09:30Secondly,
09:31he said,
09:32you keep imagining O7 as your husband.
09:34To break that illusion,
09:35you need to,
09:36in front of him,
09:37use other robots.
09:39What?
09:40He said,
09:41if you can do it with other robots in front of him,
09:43you'll prove,
09:44you know it's just a robot.
09:45That way,
09:46you can keep using O7.
09:50No.
09:51Megan,
09:52if you don't agree,
09:53he'll never let you set foot in that place again.
09:55You'll never see O7 again.
09:57It took me ten minutes to answer her.
09:58I remembered Mark's face.
10:00Remembered that tear.
10:01Remembered that silent go,
10:02he whispered.
10:03Then I turned back and said,
10:08fine.
10:12Jennifer told me,
10:13you agreed to the terms.
10:15I understand your feelings.
10:16Losing a fiance,
10:18four years of pain,
10:19seeing someone who looks exactly like him,
10:20of course you get get attached,
10:21but Megan,
10:22that's just a robot.
10:23I need to help you distinguish reality from fantasy.
10:26I understand.
10:27I accept the terms.
10:28Good.
10:29From now on,
10:30every time you come,
10:31you'll use other robots first.
10:33Then,
10:34use O7.
10:35Our associates will document the entire session,
10:38to make sure you're not cheating.
10:40He said he was helping me.
10:41He said it was for my mental health.
10:43But I saw his eyes.
10:45He was enjoying it.
10:47He was enjoying,
10:48watching me fall apart.
11:02Megan,
11:03welcome to our special experience room.
11:05Today's arrangement is a combination package.
11:09Zero three,
11:09Titan,
11:10our most popular model when it comes to size.
11:12User feedback.
11:13Once you try,
11:14you never go back.
11:15Before Echo,
11:16his specialty is voice simulation.
11:18He can produce corresponding whispers,
11:20and breathing sounds based on your movements.
11:22Even,
11:22I love you,
11:23if you need it.
11:24This,
11:25is the boss?
11:27Zo5 Thomas.
11:28Custom made to look like our boss.
11:30Detail accuracy 99.7%,
11:31including skin texture and temperature.
11:34Robots don't smile on their own.
11:35They don't change expression,
11:37just because I look at them.
11:39The rule is this.
11:40You must use zero three,
11:41zero four,
11:42and zero five first.
11:43At least 10 minutes each.
11:45Only then,
11:46will zero seven be activated for you.
11:48Why?
11:49The boss's arrangement.
11:50He said,
11:51you need to prove yourself.
11:53Since you're using multiple robots at once,
11:56we'll let them operate autonomously.
11:57You just need to lie back and relax.
11:59I looked at my boyfriend.
12:00He was strapped to a metal stand
12:01three feet away from me,
12:02watching about to be used.
12:03And I had to let others use me first,
12:05right in front of him.
12:06I'm sorry.
12:07To save you,
12:08I need to betray you.
12:11Relax.
12:12You'll enjoy this.
12:15Wait,
12:16doesn't he need to be plugged in?
12:18Oh,
12:18my apologies.
12:22Why is an O5 plugged in?
12:24Zo5 is the newest model.
12:26No plug required.
12:27Fully autonomous.
12:28Fully responsive.
12:29Fully temperature.
12:29I was in front of my boyfriend,
12:31pinned down by three...
12:33You're...
12:33real?
12:35Pinned down by three robots.
12:36No.
12:37Two robots.
12:38He's watching.
12:39And the real boss.
12:40I promised to save him,
12:42but now,
12:42I was becoming their toy.
12:44You can't refuse.
12:46Do you want to experience O7 again?
12:48I looked at him.
12:49He looked at me.
12:50I told him,
12:51I'm sorry,
12:51and then...
12:54After every session,
12:55they let me into room O7,
12:57like a handout.
12:59Like a reminder
13:00of why I'm enduring all of this.
13:07I'm...
13:08sorry.
13:13Don't apologize.
13:15I'm getting you out of here.
13:39The hot water ran for a long time.
13:41I didn't cry.
13:43Not that night.
13:44I looked at the woman in the mirror.
13:46She didn't look like me anymore.
13:49But what she was about to do
13:51was what I should have done
13:52four years ago.
13:56From that night on,
13:57I was no longer the woman
13:59who lost her fiancé.
14:00I became
14:01the one who would find proof
14:03every single word.
14:27Detective Miller,
14:27this is Megan.
14:28I filed the missing person report
14:30on Mark four years ago.
14:31I have new evidence,
14:31but I need you to investigate quietly.
14:33Don't let anyone,
14:35especially the people
14:36at the underground store,
14:37know you're looking into this.
14:38What are you talking about?
14:39What did you find?
14:41Mark is alive.
14:42They're holding him
14:43in the underground store.
14:44They turned him into a robot.
14:46I'm collecting evidence.
14:48When I'm ready,
14:49I'll contact you.
14:53You came to see me voluntarily.
14:55That's unexpected.
14:56I thought you'd never want
14:57to set foot in here again.
15:00I want to keep coming.
15:02I...
15:02Maybe I was too obsessed before.
15:05You came to your senses?
15:07I want to keep coming,
15:08but I don't want to use
15:09the other robots anymore.
15:10I promise,
15:11I won't pretend
15:12O7 is real anymore.
15:14He's just...
15:15a robot.
15:16I accept that.
15:18Good.
15:19But the rules don't change.
15:22Every time,
15:22you have to use the others first
15:23before you can use O7.
15:25This is for your own good.
15:27You need to prove
15:29you can tell reality from fantasy.
15:31I understand.
15:40This time,
15:41I'll teach you personally.
15:43You don't need to be plugged in.
15:52Thomas,
15:53can I ask you something?
15:55Ask.
15:56You don't want to know
15:57the details,
15:58but since you asked,
16:00some people
16:01come willingly.
16:02Some people
16:03are brought here.
16:04Your mark,
16:05he was donated.
16:07Who donated him?
16:09Guess.
16:10Come here.
16:11Let's not waste time.
16:23You can't keep doing this.
16:24He'll destroy you.
16:26He's already destroying me.
16:27And your hands
16:29are dirtier than his.
16:34She didn't deny it.
16:36She didn't say,
16:37what are you talking about?
16:38She didn't say,
16:39you're wrong.
16:40She just
16:40walked away.
16:43In that moment,
16:45I knew for sure.
16:54I'm close to getting the evidence.
16:57Hold on just a little longer.
17:00Soon,
17:00we're leaving.
17:02Be careful,
17:05Jennifer.
17:08Jennifer.
17:10Only in that moment
17:11did I fully confirm it.
17:13Jennifer was the one
17:14who donated him.
17:16Mark had known
17:16from the very beginning
17:18it was her.
17:21I know.
17:49Detective Miller,
17:50I'm ready.
17:51I have all the evidence,
17:52I have all the evidence,
17:52photos,
17:53detailed logs,
17:54enough to prove
17:54that Underground Store
17:55is involved in illegal detention
17:56and human trafficking.
17:58Megan,
17:59are you sure?
18:02Last time you went in,
18:03they produced
18:05silicone samples.
18:06This time is different.
18:07I have it on tape.
18:09Thomas said it himself.
18:10Mark was donated to them.
18:12That's not a custom robot.
18:13That's
18:15a human being
18:17altered.
18:19We need time to mobilize.
18:21We have to assemble a team,
18:22get a warrant.
18:23I can go in.
18:23I can go in right now.
18:24I'll get Mark out.
18:25You wait at the entrance.
18:27That's too dangerous.
18:28If they find out
18:29you're trying to take someone-
18:31If they see cops storming in,
18:33they'll destroy him.
18:35I've seen what they do
18:36to their robots.
18:38If Mark gets disposed of
18:39before you arrive,
18:40all my evidence is useless.
18:42I'm the only one
18:43who can get him out.
18:46We'll be waiting outside.
18:49Once you're in,
18:50keep your phone on.
18:52If you're not out
18:53in 15 minutes,
18:54we're coming in.
18:55Deal.
18:55Deal.
19:06Four years.
19:081,460 days.
19:10The number of times
19:12I've walked down those stairs,
19:13I've lost count.
19:14But this time
19:15is the last time.
19:35We're leaving.
19:39Can't leave.
19:42What?
19:44Bill,
19:45no.
19:46No.
19:53I thought you'd learned
19:54your lesson.
19:55I've already called the cops.
19:57The evidence
19:57is already in their hands.
19:59You think I'd let you
20:00walk out with evidence?
20:02Signal Jammer,
20:03$30,000.
20:04Covers the entire VIP section.
20:06Your recordings
20:07are now just useless audio.
20:09Your phone
20:09can't call out.
20:10Had patience with you.
20:11I gave you chances.
20:13Let you use the other robots.
20:14Let you prove yourself.
20:15But you still
20:16want to take him.
20:18Since you've chosen
20:19this path,
20:20then you can stay too.
20:21Room 05 happens
20:22to be short
20:23one new sample.
20:23Megan,
20:24listen to me.
20:25You can't get out.
20:26But if you calm down,
20:27I can make sure you leave.
20:28You sold him.
20:30You sold him
20:31to this place.
20:32You were his first love.
20:34You're the one
20:35who donated him.
20:36You don't understand.
20:37I don't need
20:38to understand anything.
20:40All I know is
20:42you destroyed him.
20:45And you destroyed
20:46me too.
20:51Take her.
21:02Take her.
21:06Freeze, police!
21:07Everyone,
21:07hands where I can see them!
21:17Are you okay?
21:18I'm fine.
21:18He needs a doctor.
21:19Ambulance is already
21:20on its way.
21:23You won this round.
21:24But you know,
21:25there's more than
21:26one donor.
21:36I'm sorry.
21:48I'm sorry.
21:52Don't thank me.
21:53You owe me four years.
21:55Take your time paying back.
21:58You'll need to come
21:59to the station
22:00for a statement.
22:01But you can ride
22:02with me.
22:04Okay.
22:05I finally walked
22:06up those stairs.
22:07Not down,
22:09up.
22:21Severe systemic damage,
22:23long-term malnutrition,
22:25muscle electrophie,
22:26nerve damage
22:26from repeated
22:27electrical shocks.
22:28His thermoregulation
22:30has nearly failed.
22:32That's why his skin
22:33temperature has been
22:33consistently low.
22:34but he's alive
22:36and the nerve damage
22:38isn't permanent.
22:39He'll need
22:40long-term treatment.
22:42Months,
22:42maybe a year.
22:44But there's a chance
22:45he'll recover
22:46most of his function.
22:48Will he be able
22:49to talk,
22:50walk?
22:51Yes.
22:52But it will take time.
22:53His muscles need
22:54to regrow.
22:55His nerves need
22:56to connect.
22:57His body needs
22:58to relearn
23:00how to live.
23:01He'll recover.
23:02But you need
23:03to be prepared.
23:04He's not the same
23:05person he was
23:05four years ago.
23:06What he went through
23:08will leave
23:09marks forever.
23:13She said he
23:14wouldn't be the same.
23:17I don't need him
23:18to be the same.
23:19I just need him
23:21alive.
23:22And then
23:24we take it slow.
23:35Do you remember
23:37the first time
23:38we met?
23:39Yeah.
23:39You were wearing
23:40a gray jacket.
23:41Asked me if I could
23:42take a picture for you.
23:45Back then,
23:47I knew
23:48it was you.
23:53You'll get better.
23:55When you're better,
23:56I'll make you
23:57chase me all over again.
24:05Thank you for coming.
24:10Do you know why I did it?
24:13I had five abortions
24:14for him.
24:14Five.
24:15The first time,
24:16he held me and said,
24:17I'm sorry,
24:18we'll be more careful
24:18next time.
24:19The fourth time,
24:20he stopped saying it.
24:22The fifth time,
24:23he said to me
24:23outside the hospital,
24:24you're too much.
24:25You're not the kind
24:25of person I want.
24:28Then he met you
24:30and he was happy with you.
24:33The kind of happy
24:35he never gave me.
24:37So,
24:38I chose to destroy him,
24:40but not kill him.
24:41Just make him live,
24:42destroyed.
24:43I thought that would make me feel better,
24:45but I just hated myself more.
24:48Jennifer,
24:49I won't forgive you,
24:50but I won't hate you either.
24:51Hating you is too exhausting.
24:55Your hatred destroyed you.
24:58I won't let it destroy me.
25:02I won't let it destroy me.
25:42I won't let it destroy you.
25:46You did it.
25:48I did it.
26:02Four years,
26:04over 2,000 days,
26:07I thought I'd never see the sun again.
26:10And now?
26:11Now,
26:13I'm here.
26:15With you,
26:16watching the sea.
26:26Sometimes,
26:26I dream about the basement.
26:29Do you want to talk about it?
26:32I dream about the shocks,
26:34about the sales associate's face,
26:36about you in those rooms.
26:39Then I wake up.
26:41And I find myself here.
26:44Fire.
26:45Fire.
26:46Light.
26:47You.
26:49And then,
26:50it's okay.
26:54We didn't get married.
26:55We didn't even discuss marriage.
26:58We just woke up every day,
27:02looked at each other,
27:03and kept going.
27:18morning.
27:21Morning.
27:22He walked out of that room,
27:23and I,
27:25finally,
27:26walked out of that room, too.
27:28Neither of us has forgotten those things,
27:31but those things
27:33are no longer standing in front of us.
27:37What do you want?
27:37Says,
27:37I'm sorry.
27:37Never go for it.
27:38How do you like that.
27:38May I.
