You are going to love this.

Roscoe, you've got that mad scientist
look.

I thought you liked that look.

Only when we're planning something
together. You're up to something.

So, Van, ready for the audition?

Don't try to change the subject. I want
to know what you're up to.

Can't I surprise my best friend with a
gift?

You got me a gift?

Samantha, eat beta.

But you know I'm allergic to cats.

Not this one.

Watch.

It's a hologram?

30 million pixels.

Costco, are you up there?

Uh -oh. That's so sweet.

Costco! Yeah, Dad, I'm just testing some
holographic cat scans.

I gotta go. Don't forget the audition.

Why is there a plaid cat in my lab?

Well, you said I could test your
holographic programming.

Uh, SkyGraph is about to pull all my
funding and you're making holographic

Well, yeah. We'll main its companion.

It can make millions.

Maynard, no. Wait. Stop.

You can't go out. Bye.

This computer is not a toy.

Look, I didn't develop this technology
for your entertainment, son.

At least I use it.

I mean, if you want to keep your
funding, then make something with it

just talking about it.

Hey, why don't you show Beta the sky
graph?

You may actually be impressed.

Even if you're not.

Hey, Cindy.

Rachel. Hey, I didn't think you'd make
it. I wouldn't miss it.

You missed Connor. Hey, Roscoe.

Deep cleansing breaths.

Deep cleansing breaths.

Deep cleansing breaths. Deep cleansing
breaths.

Rachel. You're not giving a baby.

It's an audition.

No, see, it's not just an audition.

Get real.

Actually, Cindy, I have heard that Daryl
Fibbs is scouting local clubs for

Hearthstone Records. Yeah? You see?

So... Why do you encourage her?

Say ten thoughts!

You're up!

You may find me just a little...

Pretty much, yeah. Okay, love.

Put down the guitar. Let's see you move.

You mean dance?

Dance. Strut.

Show some personality. Some presence.

Mr. Marks, we really don't think... Good
for you.

Thinking's overrated.

All right, give me some Britney.

Give me some Jagger.

That'll be all.

Moist toilet.

Towel. Moist towel.

You didn't let them finish.

What are you, their manager?

Do them a favour. Put them out of their
misery.

Hey, they sound great.

Yeah, but it's not about sound anymore.

It's about image.

Love, you can't sing lead for a band.
You can't do the moves.

Moist towel.

You're up.

Now

that's what I'm

talking about.

Anybody can learn to dance.

Trust me, Roscoe, you don't want to go
there.

Okay, nobody's perfect, okay?

Oh, okay.

It's not just the dancing anyway, Sam.

It's attitude, personality.

Yeah, it's an interconnection to the
music.

I've got a connection.

After all, I write the songs. And a real
personality.

Well, no one cares about real.

They want larger than life.

She's right, Sam.

There's way too much negative energy
here.

Working on some new lyrics?

Yeah.

Can you think of anything that rhymes
with pain and misery?

All the years we've been friends, I've
never given you bad advice.

Always.

So I'm due for some good advice.

Look, you write awesome songs.

Maybe it's just time you let someone
else sing them.

In addition to the band, not a
replacement.

Uh... Okay.

Your original lyric sheets will be
poured to the fortune someday.

See, that's what I like about you,
Roscoe.

You're always looking to the future.

Yeah, tell my father.

To him, my vision is never grand enough.

I was just, um, secret to being
everything people wanted us to be.

Yeah, well, until someone bottles
perfection, I guess we're stuck with

we've got.

So how are things in your part of the
world?

All right, I guess.

Things are a little rough for Sam right
now.

I couldn't think of a more perfect
match.

Sam and I are just friends.

So what's the problem?

I don't know.

I mean, she's fun to be with.

But she can get so moody.

She's talented.

She can be so stubborn.

I like her, but... See?

That's the problem. How do you get past
all those bugs?

We ship them off to China.

What? Overnight. Every last one of them.

They need the technology. We've got a
surplus. It's a match made in heaven.

Thanks for the help.

What?

So, good day, huh?

Nice tone, love, but can you move?

some of your deep cleansing breath.

So what do we do now?

Switch 16s and bar mitzvahs. Because
that's all we'll be getting. We'll just

out again.

You're just avoiding the obvious, you
guys.

Anybody with talent is already in a
band.

The zettabytes have gone as far as we're
going to go.

Okay?

Excuse me.

I'm here for the audition.

I don't see her on the list.

Um, we're looking for someone with a
wide vocal range who can also dance.

So, if you can't dance... I can dance.

Do you know nothing's wrong with me?

You may find me just a li -

move like that? You don't learn to move
like that, Sam. It kind of comes with

the hardware.

Um, I don't think I caught your name.

Loretta. Loretta Modern.

Well, it's nice to meet you.

Sorry about that.

Surprise.

Ladies, you're no lead singer.

My father's been working on holographic
technology and artificial intelligence

for SkyGraph. He decided to apply it to
the human form. She's so real.

You're in my liver.

Don't worry about it.

She doesn't have a liver.

Well, I know where it's supposed to be.

She pulls whatever information she needs
right off the net.

That means she knows everything.

It's incredible.

I don't even see a projector. She
doesn't need one. The computer uses

echolocation to measure the room and
pulsing frequencies to hold her pattern.

Here, watch this.

I can change her hair, her eyes, her
whole look.

Wow, that is so cool.

I love this outfit.

This is just plain weird.

No, it's fantastic.

Can you imagine going back to Moxley
with her singing lead?

As long as no one tries to touch her.

Nobody will ever know.

Rascal? Yeah?

Can you give me a hand?

Well, sure. With what?

I mean, a hand.

Oh, yuck.

How many times do I have to tell you?

You have to stay away from windows and
doors that lead outside.

Why?

Holograms can only exist indoors.

I can't tell you how many times I've
lost a cat.

I must have built you a new hand from
scratch.

Hey, Rasko.

Does your father know about Loretta?

Kidding. He finds out a little later.

Then I suggest we hide her. Fast.

Press the button every time the alarm
stops.

It's good for about five minutes.

Defeated by technology.

I love it.

What's that?

Hologram stored cell.

My dad invented it. He thinks these two
are stolen by competition.

You are so bad.

Alrighty. Ready for bed, Loretta?

Ciao, everyone.

I'll call you Roscoe. Samantha, if
you're there, pick up.

Um, okay.

Just call me when you get back.

All right, bye.

Why didn't you talk to her?

I always screen my calls when I'm busy.

It's no big deal.

Roscoe!

I gotta hide you.

Hey, Dad.

Who are you talking to?

No one.

Myself.

Impressive.

Yeah, well, it's just a hand.

Why don't we team up and work on this
together? I don't need help. I just

that I could really need some other
time.

They're fun.

Simple, Max.

All you have to do is plug in the
quadratic formula and solve for X.

How can I do that? I don't know what X
is.

Come on, Max.

Another set of sky graphs.

Some of those brains must have trickled
down.

Wait! Where are you going?

Come on!

What's more important, some girl or my
math test?

Hey, Sam, wait up.

Hi. Hey. I haven't seen you in a week.

Yeah, well, you know, I've been working
pretty hard fine -tuning Loretta.

I want her to be just right for her
first gig.

First gig?

What do you know that I don't?

Are you going to go to the dance on
Saturday?

Well, that depends. Are you asking me?

What's the point in asking if you're
going to be on stage the whole time?

What do you mean?

The infectious measles are playing.

Aren't they?

Excuse me.

Well, I know all of you here are waiting
to catch the infectious measles

tonight.

won't be performing as their lead singer
has the chicken pot.

But some of your very own schoolmates
have volunteered to fill in for them.

Now, now, come on.

Don't be disparaging, okay?

All right.

Now remember, don't let any of the band
members get too close or they'll pass

right through you.

It's so sweet. It's like he's our
mother.

We could have done this without her.

So, Put your hands together for the
Zetabytes!

Do you do this every day? Well, it's
first see if you can photograph.

If you're just tuning in, our guest
today is Daryl Finn.

So what made the notorious D -Fib give
up rap and take a job with Hearthstone

Records? I decided I wanted to be a star
maker instead of a star.

That's why I'm scouting the back roads
of undiscovered talent.

Somebody we should get to now. But to
give up performing.

Florida? Well, I mean, it's like boxing.

Shame.

Do you like the rain?

I don't know.

It only happens outside.

I can't go outside.

So how should I look now?

What? For your pictures.

Oh, all right.

Let's see.

First, look at me like you're surprised.

Great. All right. Now, look at me like
you're angry.

Okay. Now, look at me like you're in
love.

Is this right?

Yeah.

Yeah.

all the same.

It's like I'm not really there.

You're like lightning. You know, it's
hard to catch a picture, but it's still

there. Like you.

Why am I here?

You're here because the Zetabytes need a
new lead singer.

Do you know why you're here?

Um, maybe you're here to bottle
perfection.

What I mean is maybe I'm here to make
you.

Dude, you gotta set me up with Loretta.

Max. Dude, Loretta doesn't date. So?

Convince her.

Come on, help out a fellow SkyGraph rat.

Hey, too bad about your dad, by the way.

My dad?

What happened to my dad?

It's between you and me.

My mom's been talking about shutting
down his project. I've not enough

Why? When?

I don't know. I could talk to her.

Get him out of the penalty box.

That is,

he helped me.

Setting hard?

It's a new lyric.

I'm writing it to match our new image.

I'm sure Loretta will love it.

She'll like whatever you like.

Yeah.

Um, look, I was thinking.

Maybe we could go out to dinner on
Saturday.

I'd really like that, Rasta. Great.

And I figured we could make it a double
date.

With who?

Max McAllister.

Now. Wait a second.

You can't. I made a deal with him. And
Loretta can't be there without me.

You can't be serious.

It helps save my father's job.

Besides, Loretta needs social
experience.

So do you.

Why does everything have to be such a
battle with you? I'm sorry I can't be

agreeable 24 -7 like Loretta. Yeah, so
am I.

Yes, you did.

Sam.

I checked the creep into the board, and
I scored the winning goal.

Wow, what a story. Isn't that a great
story, Loretta? She looks hot.

The Ducks are up 4 -3 in the third
period.

Really? How'd you know that?

She's psychic.

No way.

Sam's kidding. It's right here on my
computer.

Dude, do you have to take that thing
everywhere you go?

So, Loretta, tell me a little about
yourself.

Where are you from? She's visiting.

She's an exchange student. We're hosting
her.

Wow. I've got to get into the hosting
business.

So, what country are you from? Well,
she's from... Antarctica.

No way.

Mean winter temperatures of 74 degrees
zero zero.

5 .5 million square miles.

Amazing. And you don't even have an
accent.

She came here to escape six months in
the darkness.

Of course, not all of us can be so
lucky.

You know what you want?

Oh, I don't eat.

Meat. Meat. She doesn't eat meat. Vegan.
Cool.

We'll have the half pound burger and the
veggie plate.

Just fries for us.

have ever seen.

Oh, do that again.

Hello. You changed my holographic
protocols, didn't you?

Dad, this is a really bad time. I'm on a
date. I don't care where you are.

Be right back.

Dad, just calm down, okay? You
deliberately altered my programs.

No, I made it more efficient. You know,
The moment I first saw you on stage, I

thought we had a connection between us.
I mean, really deep down.

To tell you the truth, I really don't go
that deep.

Neither do I. See, it's perfect.

I think I'm going to be sick.

Max, can I just melt in your arms?

Why don't you?

You have to kiss me first. Oh, look at
this place.

We're going to get a grip.

Talk to the hand.

Um, uh, oh, oh, no, my keys.

Can you go get them for me?

Yeah, sure.

Popping in on some old friends.

Well, that was the most unusual date
I've ever been on.

You've got to admit, it was fun.

Look,

I need you to do one more thing for
Loretta.

Can we just once not talk about Loretta?

I needed to keep her for a while.

You're asking the wrong person. I can't
even keep a hamster alive. She's not a

pet. She's a person.

She's a program.

Look, if I keep her, my dad will find
her, and then you'll lose your lead

singer.

Mom,

it'll be good for her.

You can teach her how to be real.

Hmm?

Please?

Thanks, Connors.

Thank you, Roscoe.

See where Samantha gets it from.

I never quite had her determination.

So, uh, Sam's inside?

Yeah, she's studying with that new girl.

The answer is three times the square
root of two.

It's my homework.

I've got to be the one to get it right.

But you got it wrong.

That's how you learn. You get it wrong
until you get it right.

That's such a waste of time.

That just goes to show that you don't
know everything.

Yes, I do.

Okay, maybe you do.

But you don't understand any of it. You
could know what a baby is.

But you've never been one.

You can know every type of bicycle, but
you've never fallen off one and scraped

your knee.

You've never had to try and fail.

Try and fail until you get something
right.

Hey, girls. How's Sufian going?

She's mad because I'm perfect.

I don't even know why I talked to her.

She's not even real.

She's just a trick of light.

And you're nothing but water and a few
pounds of chemicals.

Maybe a few more pounds than you really
need.

He screens your calls.

Oh, okay. I think we've all got to calm
down just a little bit.

You screen my calls?

Look, don't think about that right now.

Sam, why don't you show Loretta the song
you wrote for her?

You wrote a song for me?

I wrote it for the band.

With you in mind.

Could I hear it?

Here's the story of a girl living in a
lonely world.

A hidden note, a secret crush, a little
boy who talks too much.

Well, I'm standing in a crowd, and when
you smile, I check you out.

But you don't need...

amateur night.

Amateur night?

Now, trust me on this. Harsh Tone
Records is sending a talent scout.

Daryl Fizz?

You didn't hear it from me.

I can't believe it. We get to perform
for Daryl Fizz.

Oh, my gosh.

Yeah, I just spent every free moment
rehearsing.

Uh, you saw Loretta in there. She
doesn't need rehearsal. She might not,

do. Yeah.

You guys?

So, Moxley's having to close the first
half.

I thought you would put her in.

I'll take care of her.

Look.

Loretta, I am so sorry.

That's okay.

I've been enjoying the rain.

I can't believe Sam left you out here.

I don't know what I would have done if I
lost you.

I mean, if the man lost you.

You ready?

It must be wonderful.

What?

To feel the rain.

Ross goes out, honey. You can wait for
him if you like. I just want to drop off

this new demo. Sure.

Save me.

Please.

Save me.

Please.

Save me.

Please.

Save me.

Please.

This is where you got your voice, huh,
Loretta?

Some gene pool Roscoe gave you.

Hey, Moxley. You gave me no respect when
I performed here.

I took the same lack of courtesy now.

I messed up with you, man.

Oh, you brought the media.

I don't leave home without it. Yeah.

Hey. Hey.

All right.

Like, Joe Phipps is here.

Hey, don't faint until after we perform.

I can't believe Sam isn't here yet.

Why not be too hard on her? She's got
all right. What if I need to make some

last -minute adjustments on her?

I can't believe she'd be this
irresponsible.

Now you sound like your father.

Oh, we got stuck in traffic. As long as
you're here. Seriously, let us work.

Thanks, Mom.

Bye. Good luck, honey. Bye.

Bye. Bye. Bye.

Yeah, Loretta? Even a drum?

Look. My hand is shaking.

I think I'm going to hurl.

Yeah, but it's a deep cleansing hurl,
right?

Are we there yet?

Not in a few minutes.

How do I look?

Is my contrast set right?

You look great.

Perfect.

Come on, let's check out the
competition.

It was the picture, wasn't it?

When were you planning on telling me
that you used me to make her?

I didn't think it was important.

I guess I should be happy for you.

You finally bottled perfection.

Hey, I make her for you, not for me.

If you're not going to be honest with
me, at least be honest with yourself.

What?

I just want to know what part of me you
used to make her.

What part of me did you like enough to
keep?

I wish you never made her.

Now we have a real treat for you next.

An old girl band that I have personally
discovered.

next media sensation.

Listen to this.

Good work, Phibbs.

Make it happen.

much for being with us today.

Oh, tell me, where does a hologram find
those cutting -edge fashions? I download

them. Don't you?

How is it working with Loretta? It's
amazing.

You went to five minutes. You ever guess
she's not reading? Well, the buzz from

the live shows is undeniable.

But will her debut album live up to the
hype? We're recording it right now.

It's going to be hot.

get through the song once. You want to
make a Hearthstone CD?

Then you have to do it right.

Your harmonies were flat.

Was I okay?

You were brilliant.

Cindy, you need to keep the tempo
consistent.

What take are we on?

34.

Is it too late to get studio musicians?

Never too late.

Mr. Phibbs, intercom's still on.

Can he replace us with studio musicians?

He can do whatever he wants.

Daryl, you can't replace the girls.

They're my band.

All right, Loretta, whatever you say.

Meter's still running.

Yeah, I own the meter. Or at least I
will when their first album goes

Yeah, uh, Mr. Phibbs, we should break
for the day anyway. I gotta work on

Loretta. Uh, gonna increase her range of
motion.

Okay, we'll pick it up later.

National broadcast is only a week away,
and I want the single done by then.

I'm working on my own song.

Your own song?

You're amazing, you know that?

Take a good look.

Because of that...

It's the future of the music industry. A
month from now, every teenager in

America is going to want to be just like
her.

Smart, talented, high resolution.

Album title.

Take care of my girl, Roscoe.

Your girl?

Hey, you guys sounded great.

You're gonna have a killer first album.

You mean Loretta will?

Yeah. Look, I'm sorry, she's getting all
the attention.

Are you?

I mean, that's why you made her, right?

The band needed an image. You say that
like it's a bad thing.

Things just aren't turning out the way I
want it, all right?

You've still got that extra data cell,
don't you?

Why don't you take Loretta for a while?

And they could do a story on you and how
the two of you are friends.

We are?

You could try to be.

Tell you what, Roscoe.

Should be almost too much for you? Email
it to me.

Dad, what are you doing? Studying your
creation. How did you compensate for the

ambient room light? A variable intensity
subroutine. Dad, please, you're

embarrassing her. It's okay, Roscoe. I
don't mind.

Hey, Dad, you need to warn her before
you do that.

I have to hand it to you, Roscoe.

What you have done here is amazing.

Of course, a holographic rock star isn't
exactly what I had in mind. But she's a

good beginning.

Now let's just move beyond it.

Why can't you just appreciate what
you've got right in front of you? I

saw her.

But did you see who she is? Who she's
becoming?

She can't become anything.

It's a hologram.

No, she's an individual.

She has thoughts and feelings, just like
you and me. No, she's a blend of light

and color, like an abstract painting.

It's vibrant, it's beautiful, but in the
end, it's just something to look at,

nothing more.

Really?

Well, that nothing saved you your
funding, thanks to her.

You're Skygrass' favorite employee.

That wasn't her. That was you. By
creating her, you might have... You

even saved my job.

Glad you noticed.

I'm going for a walk.

Roscoe, I wrote a song.

Tell me it's brilliant.

Tell me it's perfect.

I believe in yesterday and my brother.
Hey, now you're a rock star one way or

another. Isn't it great?

Loretta, these are just lines from other
songs.

Yeah, but I put them all together.

You want to hear the music? No, I know
the music.

Loretta, you can't just take bits and
pieces of other songs.

Why not?

You made me out of bits and pieces of
other people.

That's different.

How? It just is.

Okay, look, I know you can do better
than this. Maybe I'll write you a new

creative plug -in. No!

You always want to change me.

Why am I never good enough for you?

There's always room for improvement.

You said I was perfect.

Yeah.

Even perfection has its limits.

I want to go to the mall.

You can't.

The mall's closed.

Not in Japan.

We can't go to Japan.

You can't go because you're not a
hologram. But I can upload straight to

So who's limited now?

Downloading from the net is much
different than uploading.

If you upload, the net will tear you
apart.

How would you know?

You know what?

I'm not going to have this argument.

Fine! Then just reprogram me to not
argue. Maybe I will.

That's it.

I'm leaving.

Lorena, wait.

If you step out that door, you'll be
gone forever.

Is that what you want?

It's not fair you made me like this.

You should have made me real.

From now on, no more tinkering with your
programs, all right?

You're already everything I wanted you
to be.

What about what I want to be?

Ciao, Roscoe.

Hey! Small pedestrian traffic!

Get your butt out of the info pipe!

I'm sorry. My engine's already on a
surge.

Please?

All right, all right.

Get in.

Are you looking to refinance? We've got
the lowest...

mental deletions, power surges, or data
corruptions. Mm -hmm.

You have a new

message. Samantha, help me.

What?

It's me, Loretta.

Roscoe emailed you to me?

I was only kidding.

Quick, plug in my data cell.

Uh, fine.

Roscoe wants to play games. I can play
games, too.

There you are, Loretta.

Safe and sound.

And you can stay there to the next Ice
Age, for all I care.

Where's Samantha?

She's inside.

Oh, slow down, Roscoe.

Loretta's gone.

Gone? What do you mean, gone?

We had a fight. She went into the net.

What did you tell her? My way or the
information superhighway? I don't think

get it. The Internet's like a tornado
for her. She could be shredded between a

thousand different servers.

I'm sure she can take care of herself. I
was up all night trying to trace her.

What's the band going to do without her?

It's not about the band.

It's about you.

You're in love with her.

You're ridiculous.

Of course you are.

You designed her to be your perfect
girl.

How could you help but fall in love with
her?

She can sing. She can dance. She's funny
and beautiful.

But you know what, Roscoe?

She's not real.

What is real, anyway?

Me.

I'm real.

And I'm right here.

I've always been right here.

I've got her.

What?

Loretta, she found her way to my
computer.

Well, then she's okay.

I'll leave you two alone.

Thank you, hon.

Do you remember the last thing Susan
said to you?

What?

Susan, your last girlfriend.

I haven't thought about her in ages.

She said, I hope you like eating alone.

Then she slammed the door. She was very
good at slamming doors.

So, uh...

You like eating alone?

I'm not alone. I've got you, my business
partner.

Mom slammed doors, too?

What, are you writing a paper on my
failed relationships?

No.

Thanks. I'm just wondering why you never
got married again.

I guess I was looking for something that
I never quite found.

Perfection? You know, I always believed
in the perfect match, that there was

someone out there who'd be exactly what
I needed, and we would sort of complete

each other.

But you never found her.

Perfection's a funny thing.

Look how perfect this is.

The way the crystal captures the light,
refracts it to beautiful patterns.

Silicon's amazing, isn't it?

You can mold it into glass or computer
chips.

But you know what?

It's not alive.

And the more you try to find that kind
of perfection in people, the more

meals you will eat alone.

It's amazing.

The internet didn't damage your pattern
at all.

Roscoe, what's it like to feel?

What's it like to touch?

I'm not really sure it's something you
could explain.

Try.

Okay.

Close your eyes.

Now, imagine a dance floor.

You and your partner are dancing to the
beat. Hip -hop or rock?

Oh, it doesn't matter.

Suddenly, it changes.

It slows down to a ballad.

Okay. He touches your hair.

It feels like... like a violin gently
playing.

He touches cheek. It feels like...

like a flute holding a single quavering
note high above the rest.

You put your arms around each other and
begin to dance.

The embrace feels like a cello
harmonizing with the violin.

Okay.

Now open your eyes.

I can't feel anything.

It's okay.

Me neither.

Nothing at all.

I guess you and I never will.

And I thought that I would make it.

There's no need to be nervous.

I'm fine.

Just because he's the president of the
record company and he's meeting with,

well, right now, with my boss, that's no
reason to be intimidated.

I'm not.

Good.

I've got to go to the bathroom.

Again? Yeah.

That looks like Daryl. It is.

Back when he was rapper, Defib. He looks
so mean.

It's all image.

That was my debut album with Double
Platinum.

Barely made a penny, though.

Hearthstone Records got all the money.

That's not right.

Maybe not.

But every performer has a choice.

Walden Giles offered me a contract. It
was my choice to sign it. I'm glad I

don't have to worry about things like
money.

Or meetings.

Mr. Giles would prefer that Loretta
wasn't in our discussion.

You and your son have revolutionized the
music industry.

You've given it new life. Loretta Mana's
on her way to being a household name.

Skygrass entering into a partnership
with Harsh Tone Zander.

With you spearheading the new division.

I don't know what to say.

You will corner the market on
holographic performers.

You don't have to pay them. You don't
have to feed them. And when they're not

stage, you can put them away.

That's the kind of performer I like. How
are the holograms going to feel about

that?

You're a funny kid.

Roscoe, I'm giving you and your father
free creative reign to develop new

holographic personalities.

In the meantime, we'll exploit the one
we've got. What do you mean, the one

you've got?

We purchased Loretta from Skygraph.

No. They can't just buy her. They
purchase computer programs all the time.

it looks like they bought you, too.
Roscoe, I know Loretta might seem like

individual, but she's not.

What is she?

Property.

And now she's my property.

plain and simple roscoe let's just step
outside and talk calmly about yeah i

know like business partners but you know
what i'm not your business partner i'm

your son we have the ability to create
loretta's of every ethnicity

asian african -american hispanic it's
brilliant we'll hit every demographic

loretta into whatever we want her to be
isn't that right sander

sander yes

Yes, we can do all of that.

Just because we can doesn't mean that we
should.

I'm sorry, but I'm with my son on this.

Whether Loretta is a person or a
program, she deserves to be treated with

dignity.

Fine.

I'll set up a task force on hologram
ethics.

Daryl, could you please take the data,
sir?

Now.

It's not fair.

I need security in here. Dan, come on.
Talk to your son. You know, for once,

that's exactly what I intend to do.

How could you let him do this?

You said every performer has a choice.

How about Loretta?

It's her choice.

All right, sir. Please go.

I want that under lock and key.

We won't let them get away with it. You
created Loretta.

We won't let them do this to you or to
her.

What is it?

Nothing.

Hey, Dad.

If I were to tell you how proud I was to
be your son, would you get all mushy on

me?

Who, me? No.

Good. Good.

Because, uh, I am.

I'm okay. I'm okay. I got it.

Where am I?

Roscoe?

You have a decision to make, Loretta.

Roscoe can't make it for you. Neither
can I.

On the one hand, you can stay here.

If you do, Harsh Tone will own you.

Perform when they tell you.

All I want to do is perform.

Then maybe this is where you belong.

Then, on the other hand... You're
handheld.

With wireless web.

I uploaded once.

The choice is yours.

Kids, are you in there? I hope you're
taking good care of my girl.

Dear Mr. Giles, after careful
consideration...

I've decided to free myself from you and
Harsh Tone Records.

I believe our friend Loretta Modern has
chosen to do the same.

Sincerely, Daryl J.

Fitts.

You

again?

Where to this time?

Anywhere but here.

4 ,002 ,708 matches.

Do you have any idea what he just did?
You don't understand.

Oh, I understand just fine.

He's a lying, cheating, self -serving,
underhanded, arrogant, bald slime.

Are you done? No, I'm not done.

Okay.

Now I'm done.

So am I.

I resigned from Harsh Stone.

What? I didn't like the air of
oppression.

Thomas started my own recording company.

I made a mistake.

I'm sorry.

Loretta's gone, too.

She escaped into the net.

You let her into the net? Hey.

It was either that or let Weldon Giles
get his clutches into her.

What about the concert?

Oh, there isn't going to be a concert.
The Zeta Bytes are history. Come on,

could you spare us the gloom and doom?

Sam?

Guys?

I have an idea.

You've got to be.

It's just an email.

You don't think?

Ew, that was fun.

Where have you been?

In Japan.

Club hopping.

Where's here anyway?

I don't understand.

What happened?

She tried to be you.

That's what happened.

When you didn't show up to the concert,
she tried to take your place.

Well, someone should be fixing her.
Running diagnostics. She fell and hit

head. It's not that easy.

Roscoe, you fix her.

I can't.

All we can do is wait.

Come on, we'll wait with the others. No.
I want to stay here.

Loretta.

This machine.

What is it? What does it do?

EEG. It measures brain activity.

Those wires, are they connected to her
brain?

Sort of.

Loretta, no.

That's not a computer. If you go in
there, you can't come out.

No!

Samantha, are you alright?

It's broken.

Your hardware needs to be rewired.
That's all.

There.

Try it now.

Loretta? What are you doing here?

I'm here to fix you.

Play something.

That's so beautiful.

I wish I could learn to play something
like that.

Roscoe could program you. It's not the
same as learning.

You get to make mistakes.

You get to see yourself get better
little by little. So when you finally

there, it actually means something.

All this time I've been jealous of you.

Because it all came so easy to you.

Singing, dancing, perfect personality.

Perfect. Oh, I hate that word. If I'm so
perfect, why do I feel so

limited?

I mean, look at this place you've
created.

You're so lucky.

Samantha, you get to be the dreamer.

But all I'll ever be is the dream.

I never thought of it that way.

You're losing your pattern.

So are you.

It looks like there's only enough room
for one of us in here.

She's waking up?

Samantha? Samantha, honey?

Sam, are you okay?

Hi, Roscoe.

Loretta?

Everything's so different.

Everybody feels different.

I don't understand.

If this is Loretta, where's Samantha?

There was only room for one of us at a
time.

Now, it's my turn to feel.

What are you saying?

My pattern's weak.

You're just not used to the weight.

What do you mean, it's your turn to
feel?

It's only for a while.

Look at the rain, Roscoe.

Am I everything you wanted me to be?

It doesn't matter.

All that matters is what you want to be.

When's Samantha coming back?

Why would you want Samantha anyway?

She's not like me.

She's not perfect.

She doesn't have to be.

Are you saying you love her because of
her imperfections?

Yes.

Because of everything she is.

And because of everything she's not.

Yeah.

So, you'll let her come back?

Of course I will.

What kind of hologram do you think I am?

But first, the rain.

You really want to do this?

More than anything in the world.

I don't understand.

This should be so easy to just reach out

my hand.

I know the world is real, but nothing's
as

it seems.

Though I can tell you...

born to sing ballads.

It's kind of flat on the second verse.

Hey, what do you want?

Perfection?

You sound great just the way you are.

Well, Rachel, harmony's helped me out.

Harmony? Oh, let's just sing in harmony.

Yeah, I thought it was Cindy.

Hey, I don't sing. I just play drums.

Well, then who's...

What is it?

Zetabytes have a guardian angel.

Just a little.
