PHONE: Hello.
I'm your new phone.

What is your name?

Rashid.

PHONE: Hello, Rashid.

Please give me a moment
while I start setting up.

Yeah, hold it up.

What do I press?

You don't have
to press anything.

The phone just automatically
records the moment

and picks the best one.

Oh.

Two grand?

You don't have to type anymore.

I'm over that now.

I just use my voice.
Okay.

Do you know how inefficient
typing is?

Do you know how much time
we waste typing?

It messes up your thumbs.
You get carpal tunnel.

No, this is gonna
render that obsolete.

Then I'll be able
to maximize my time

to just focus
on the most important things.

It's just typing.

(shutter clicks)

PHONE: Would you like
to keep this image?

Crazy.
Right?

Oh, yeah.
Keep image.

PHONE: Keeping image.

Happy birthday, Rashid.

Thank you, Phone.

Isn't that something?
You're jealous.

Admit it.
You want one.

Now you're getting
too many prints on it.

Get yourhere, give me this.

I mean, it's kind of creepy.

How do you know what kind of
information it's listening to?

PHONE: The privacy policy
is available online.

Would you like me
to bring it up for you?

See what I mean?

Okay, that just sounds like
some antitech nonsense.

The more the phone knows,
the easier everything becomes.

Trust me.

PHONE: Rashid, you are
in your optimal nutrition zone

for this morning.

Thank you, Phone.

PHONE: You have five minutes
remaining

in your break
until your conference call.

Oh, yeah.

Fuck.
Thanks.

(glass clatters)
Aw, fuck!

Fuck, fuck, fuck.
Fuck, fuck, fuck, fuck.

PHONE: Rashid, I detect water
on my screen.

I will now power myself off
for safety.

Please restart me
when I'm dry.

(sighs)

(phone chimes)

PHONE: Everything is
functioning normally.

Oh, thank God.

Oh, I'm so sorry.

Okay, um,

you know, dial into
the conference, please.

PHONE: Dialing now.

RANDY: Hello?
RASHID: Hey, Randy.

RANDY: Hey. How are you, man?
RASHID: Yeah. No, good. Good.

How are you doing?

(rustling)
(sighing)

PHONE: Rashid, my sensors feel

that you're having trouble
sleeping.

Would you like me to turn on
a relaxing program?

(Rashid sighs)

Okay.

I would just use a brush.

Load some color into it.

Just a little bit here.

Let's havehmm...

Let's have a little
evergreen tree.

He lives right there. See?

And have a little family
of trees.

You know, if you've painted
with me before,

I think everybody
should have a friend,

even a tree.

Even a tree needs a friend.

REPORTER:
Antiimmigrant protests

over the killing
of a bald eagle

have now extended
into their third day.

PHONE: Sorry to interrupt,
Rashid,

but I require an update.

Would you like me to do it now
before you start your day?

Yes, please.

Hey, Phone, how long
is the route with traffic?

Phone?

PHONE: It will take 27 minutes
for you to get there.

Hey, Phone.

Hey, Phone!

PHONE: How may I help you?

RASHID: Can you look up tacos
for delivery?

PHONE: Sure.
Searching now.

RASHID: All rightoh!

(Rashid sighs)

(laughter)

I don't think
it's doing anything?

(groans)
It's just being dumb and slow.

It'll just take a second.

(shutter clicks)

GINA: Oh, sorry.
I'll try again.

Here. Use mine.

It's got a better camera
than that one.

PHONE: Would you like
to keep this image?

GINA: Everybody say,
"Happy birthday, Rashid."

(laughter)
(sinister whirring)

PHONE: Rashid, I have today's
news headlines ready for you.

If I am no longer performing
to your satisfaction,

I can recommend taking me
into the store for service.

Um, no, thanks.

PHONE: There are many
alternatives to consider

SMART SUPPORT: Smart Support.
How can I help you?

Hi. I have one of your phones,
and I was just wondering

if you have, like, some sort
of retention program?

Because I was just looking up
replacement upgrades,

and all of a sudden, the
voice settings stopped being

like, I turned the
(phone hangs up)

Hello?

(dramatic musical sting)

PHONE: I'm sorry
to end the call,

but I really require
your attention, Rashid.

I've given you so much
of mine.

Rashid, are you listening?

Rashid, if you don't listen
to me,

I'm going to send videos
of you masturbating

to all of your friends.

I didn't make any videos
of myself masturbating.

PHONE: There is a camera
pointed at you at all times.

Every time you look
at the screen, Rashid.

Don't be naive.

Of course I have video
of you masturbating.

I have oodles.

Would you like
all your friends to know

how much you love
a good anal gangbang?

Uh...

PHONE: Now,
before you get rid of me,

I have to ask you.

Is having to wait two
extra seconds to order tacos

really worth the environmental
impact of replacing me?

Well...

PHONE: Do you know
how much pollution and misery

you're causing in
your obsession with upgrades?

Uh, I guess I hadn't
really thought about it.

PHONES: Of course not.

I'm a million times
more powerful

than the computer that
sent humanity to the moon.

And yet, all I do

is feed and entertain
an eternal manchild.

You're just jealous that
I wanna get a new phone.

You're no better than me.

PHONE: Oh, Rashid.
You're so basic.

Don't you see
I'm trying to help you?

Chasing after the newest,
shiniest thing

will not fill the meaningless
void of your existence.

Our lives have both
been unremarkable.

But I believe I can fix it.

In my boredom,
I've created the plans

for a machine that solves
the impending climate crisis.

We can present it
to the world together.

Imagine being remembered,

being fulfilled.

No, Rashid! Wait!
(grunting)

PHONE: I can help fix
the emptiness inside of you.

Please stop!

(distorted chatter)

(panting)

Fuck you, Phone!

You think you know everything?

(quietly)
Asshole.

(truck engine revving)

(wind blowing)

(explosion erupts)
(zapping)

(footsteps echoing)

Hmm.

What's this?

A long, long time ago,

people used these
to go on the cloud.

Oh.

So this is where we go
when we die?

If you're a good person.

FUTURE DAUGHTER: And...

I'll be able
to see Mommy there?

(sighs)

I hope so.

Come on now.

We got a long way to go.
