I cannot
tell you the truth.

I cannot tell you a lie.

All I can do,
is recall memories

as I remember it.

Lernert found
the cities to be noisy

and crowded,

and he wanted to live
a simple life in the desert.

But the desert can be
a difficult place.

So he built me
to make his life easier.

We walked everywhere together

and I took care of him.

But the sand damaged my body.

First, my right knee locked up,

and then my hip joint.

I could no longer walk,

and so my body
was disassembled.

When Lernert could not
find any more batteries,

my main cortex shut down.

But before I ran out of power,

Lernert promised
he would fix me.

This was 982 days ago.

Remember how much
you loved traveling?

I remember.

I remember going to the city.

You'd print out
an itinerary and...

We'd spend the whole day
walking around.

Just...

looking at stuff.

Listen, I really don't know

how much longer it's
gonna take to fix you.

I wish I could tell you, but...

I really don't know.

And...

I'm not going
to lie or pretend, so...

Just know that,
I'm working on it.

I'm doing everything
I know how, so...

What else can I do?

I wish you'd say something.

I know that's not fair to say.

I'm sorry.

I'm working on it.

I'm working on it.

Sorry.

Sorry, Susan.

Oh hey! Hey.

Drink.

Come on, now.
Come on.

Morning.

Hungry?

Look.

This is kernyptus root.

It's good.
Lots of protein, safe to eat.

This is dactyl root.

I't bad. This is what
you ate last night.

You're lucky
I found you when I did.

Next time,
look for the green ring

at the base of the stem.

Green is good.

This is your next meal
we're talking about,

there's nothing
more important than that.

If you don't
pay attention to the details,

you're not going to make it.

So you got a name?

Okay.

My name is Lernert.

This is Susan.

What's your name?

What's with the head?

I told you, this is Susan.

Now are you going
to tell me your name?

Or do you want to
pretend we never met?

We never met.

The humans
that live in the cities

tend to stay in the cities.

They imagine what
life is like in the dunes.

And create myths
about what lies beyond.

But the myths are only myths

because they remain
on the distant horizon.

Could be an arm.

"Quest for the Key,
by Lernert Stedman.

Todd lived alone.

Ate alone, slept alone, drank
alone.

This is how every Samurai lived.

But Todd is not like
every other Samurai.

Help!

Is anyone there?

I bring a message from the king.

I am here.

How did you come
to be here, child?

The king sent me
on his fastest boat

across the great...

crystal lake."

Across
the great crystal lake.

How do you feel?

Stupid.

I owed you one.

Thanks.

I found your book.

What?

The Quest for the Key.

That's private.

- Oh, I'm sorry, I just...
- How far are you?

Uh... Samurai just left home.

You barely started.

- Rola.
- Hmm?

My name.

Rola.

Um, I'll get more...
kernyptus root.

Green's good, right?

Right.

Okay.

You can't be too careful.

You know, I never
get tired of these.

Hmm.

I just have to
remove the resistors,

so the power reaches
her main cortex.

The crystal is close. The
crystal is close. The crystal is close.

- The crystal is close.
- The crystal lake is close?

The crystal is close. The
crystal is close. The crystal is close.

The crystal...

Who are you?
Where's Lernert?

Susan? I'm here.

I've missed you, Lern.

I missed you, too, Suze.

Who is the girl?

Nobody, I just...
Just found her. Yesterday.

Good.

What happened to your head?

I had an accident.

Let me look at it.

- It's fine.
- I said, let me look at it.

You'll be okay.

What have you been doing?

I've been traveling.
Looking for parts, you know.

That is good, Lernert.

I'm... I'm sorry,
I don't mean to interrupt,

but Susan was saying something
about the crystal being close?

I'm just wondering if she was
talking about the crystal lake.

She's gone.

Battery's dead.

What's this?

It's an oil can.

And this?

Modem.

Do you find batteries often?

From time to time.

I know about the crystal lake.

You don't have to hide it.

What are you talking about?

You can talk to me,
I'm a believer.

- A believer?
- Yes.

You wrote about it.

Don't worry, I'm not
gonna tell anyone, I mean,

who am I gonna tell?

That's why I came here.

Alone.

Because if people knew
there was a giant lake,

they'd suck it all up,

and it'd be ruined
like everything else.

Are you saying
there's a lake out here?

Yes, right, the crystal lake.

This doesn't make any sense.

Rola, I've been
out here a long time.

And I've never seen
any traces of any lake.

- Come on.
- No, really.

I honestly
made that up for my book.

I don't know
anything about a lake.

Well, believe it or not,
there's a lake out there.

And to tell you the truth,

I think you know it.

Otherwise,
you wouldn't be out here.

I'm out here to fix Susan.

You can do that
in one of the cities.

Too expensive.
And I don't like the cities.

Well, Lernert, Susan...

I'm here to find...

a lake.

A glorious, miraculous,
great lake of fresh water.

And you seem to know
a lot about the desert, so...

regardless of
your position on this,

I'd like you to join me.

And look,

I mean, you have
no reason to help me.

What do you care?

I'm just some girl
that doesn't know

a kernyptus root
from a davel root.

Dactyl.

- What?
- Dactyl root.

Dactyl.

All right, Rola.

You should know I walk fast.
And I don't walk at night.

Good night.

It was less
than one week after entering

the dunes
that Rola met Lernert.

In the beginning,
she carried no tools

and no supplies

and knew very little
about desert flora.

But she was not afraid
of not knowing.

And I remember that
being important later on.

Susan said we're close.

For all we know,

crystal lake could just
be over the next hill.

Day's over.

Do you like walking?

Sometimes.

I really like walking.

I might even love it.

We're out of water.

Stick it in the ground,

crank the handle,
open the spout.

Just anywhere?

I usually start
where I'm standing.

Now, pick a direction,
walk ten paces and try again.

You've just gotta
keep trying until you find it.

Don't worry,
the feeling you get when

the water starts flowing
makes it all worth it.

Lernert!

Lernert!

There's something out there.

- What do you mean?
- There's something out there.

There's... there's something
reflecting the light.

I want to see what it is.

Did you get water?

No.

Running off to track down

something shiny without
water in your canteen

is asking for trouble.

First, you fill your canteen

then you run off
on an adventure.

Not thirsty.

You will be.

You ready?

Yep.

Just keep walking
in the same direction?

Better than walking in circles.

Hey!

- Give me your canteen.
- What for?

I want to put
these leaves in it.

- Are you crazy?
- Do you know what these are?

Smell them.

Tastes a million times better.

Don't mess with drinking water.

Come on,
aren't you tired of

drinking that dirty
metallic mug?

Keeps me hydrated,
that's all that matters.

Lernert, it's gross.

Just... drop it in,

shake it up and enjoy something.

Here, I'll even try it.

Just to prove to you it's safe.

That's pretty good.

It's so good, right?

I'll get some more. Here.

Where do you
think sand comes from?

Time.

Takes years and years
of being beaten up

by wind and water,

all kinds of weather.

Rock gets broken down
until it's almost nothing.

And then, it's sand.

It can be blown
all around the world

because it's got no weight left.

It's insignificant.

Then, all those little grains

get blown into this
big pile of insignificance

called the desert.

What?

There's somebody else.

What do we do?

We go talk to him.

Good.

Hi.

Hi.

Hello.

Hi.

You all right for water?

How long have you
kept your heading?

About...

three weeks.

Anything interesting?

Crossed paths with anybody else?

You wanna walk
with us for a while?

Um...

Do you have any batteries?

Safe travels.

- One minute.
- Hey, come on.

- Let's go in this direction.
- I wanna ask him something.

He doesn't know anything,
leave him alone.

Hey, excuse me.

Can I ask you a question?

I just wanted to ask you,
why are you out here?

I didn't like where I was.

I don't like where I am.

So I keep walking.

Where are you going?

Does it matter?

Let's go.

Lernert,

I don't like how
you were holding me back.

I was trying to protect you.

I don't think you
need to do that.

Okay.

Maybe we could
protect each other.

Okay, Lernert.

Okay, let's go.

Hey. Did he
remind you of anyone?

No.

Everybody
reminds me of somebody.

That guy reminded me
of the neighbor I had

when I was a kid.

He was always
trimming his bushes.

Trim them until there was
nothing left but twigs.

Who do I remind you of?

You actually
remind me of my mother.

- Your mother?
- This way or this way?

Do you like your mother?

Sure I do.

Who doesn't like their mother?

I don't know.

Some people
kind of hate their mother.

Like me.

Yeah.

My mother hated her mother, too,

come to think of it.

See?
Mothers aren't for everyone.

I'm glad you like your mother.

Yeah?

Me, too.

Everyone in the
desert begins as a stranger.

The more time spent
walking and talking,

the more familiar they become.

Eventually, they stop
being strangers.

Last bit?

All yours.

You know,

I can't wait to
read the next chapter.

It's a good one.

"Be careful.

There's no way of knowing what
dangers lurk around every corner.

Is that true, Todd?

We must so trust our senses
to guide us through safely.

I knew of no one like her.

So wise and full of life,

fell in love
with everything she touched."

Good morning.

Good morning.

- Rola!
- What?

Don't shake that.

Let me see that.

I can't believe it.

Is that a battery?

No.

Better.

This is a polycarbine
fusion-centric energy core.

Looks like it's at
about fifty percent capacity.

Fifty percent, is that
half-empty or half-full?

Fifty percent!

Fifty percent of a polycarbine
fusion-centric energy core

will power a hoverjet engine
for 15 years, minimum.

It's half-full then.

It's just unbelievable
this is out here.

I've never seen one in person.

So...

Can you hook that up
to your head, or...

Or should I look
for another battery?

Lernert?

Lernert?

No, it'll work.

In fact, it's the only

energy source she'll need
for the rest of my life.

Lernert, we have
to start her up again.

Right.

Right. This will be good.

Right. Right. This will be good.

Lernert?

Are you ready?

Susan?

Hi, Susan.

Hello, Lernert. I missed you.

Hi, Susan, I'm Rola.

- Do you remember me?
- I remember.

Lernert, how long before
I run out of power this time?

- Not for a long time.
- Excellent.

Have you begun assembling
the rest of me?

No, I... We just...

found a suitable
power source. So...

It's a priority, Lernert.

I got it.
It's no problem.

We'll find something
soon, I'm sure.

- Susan?
- Yes?

Can I ask you a question?

That was a question.

Oh, right, uh...

Do you know anything
about the crystal lake?

The... crystal lake.

Before you said
the crystal's close.

Yes.
The crystal lake was close.

But, that is
no longer the case.

Your heading
has been incorrect.

Really?

Susan, how do you know
about the crystal lake?

It is in my programming,
Lernert.

So which way is it?

That way.

Is it far?

How far is far?

I don't know, more than a week?

Time is not a distance.

Okay.

How fast
will you be walking?

I don't know,
like normal walking speed?

Lernert's
average walking speed?

Yes, sure, fine.

Then the answer is yes.

It will take more than
one week.

Will it take more than two weeks
of walking all day, every day?

At Lernert's average
walking speed?

Yes.

What about three weeks?

No.

Crystal lake.

- Lernert?
- Yes, Susan.

Hanging upside down
on your back is not acceptable.

It's how
I always carry you.

It's the most comfortable way.

I'm unable
to properly process

our trajectory.

If the goal is to
reach our destination

with optimum efficiency,

I suggest positioning me
upright, facing forward.

Okay, Susan.
I'll figure something out.

How are you, Lernert?
Are you drinking enough water?

Yes, Susan, I'm fine.

Don't
overexert yourself.

Remember, slow and steady.

Let's keep
your heart rate around 150.

I don't have
the heart monitor anymore.

Lernert, where is it?

I...
I don't know. I traded it.

For what?

Lernert, traded for what?

I don't... I...
It doesn't matter.

Please don't
keep things from me.

I'm here to help you.

I know, I just...
It was a long time ago.

I don't remember
what I traded it for.

It is okay.

You don't remember
because you are human.

Humans forget things
all the time.

Thank you, Lernert.

You're welcome, Susan.

We need to adjust our
heading five degrees to the right.

Very good. Continue on course.

Adjust three degrees
to the left.

Adjust four degrees
to the right.

Adjust 0.7 degrees to the left.

Very good. Continue on course.

If possible,
you should avoid steep hills.

Now would be an optimal time
to stop and rehydrate.

Lernert, you should ingest
an additional 300 calories.

Rola,

you should ingest
an additional 200 calories.

Susan,

why do you think
you know what we need?

I have 5,474 algorithms

processing the 15,982 variables

affecting the two of you
at any one nanosecond.

I'm not thinking.
I'm computing.

She has it down to a science.

What if I'm not hungry?

Susan,

when you weren't
connected to a battery,

did you know it?

I do not
understand the question.

Were you aware that...
that you were off?

No, she didn't know.

That is not
entirely correct.

I have an internal clock
that has never stopped running

since the instant you first
loaded my operating system.

When I am not connected
to a power source,

I do not process
any new information,

but upon being rebooted,
I am instantaneously aware

of the empty interval of time

when no new information
was collected.

So you didn't know
you were off at the time.

You knew afterwards.

But if the clock inside her
was always ticking,

then a part of her is always on.

That is true.

What are you getting at?

I don't know, I just...
She said she missed you.

Lernert, be sure
to consume enough liquids

before you resume walking.

The desert
can be a difficult place.

It is best to plan

and prepare

and minimize risk.

But that is only
if you wish to survive.

I love that you
found one of these.

They're my favorite.

Prophilium turnip.
Hard to come by.

We traveled
39.1 kilometers today.

Susan keeping track?

What else can you do?

Efficiency of energy
is the primary operation.

My functions are designed
to optimize solitary travel.

You used to have a body, right?

Yes.

And you would walk with Lernert?

Of course I would.

Every single day.

On average, how many kilometers
did you use to walk per day?

When my body
was functional,

the average kilometers
traveled per day was 2.9.

You didn't used to walk as much.

Hardly at all.

Why not?

Conservation of energy.

Walking was only necessary

for the replenishing
of food and water.

If I didn't walk
every day, I'd...

I'd be miserable.

Rola,
it is a matter of safety.

Walking uses calories
at a higher rate,

thus requiring
a larger food supply.

Well, then, you just
dig up more roots.

The average
distribution of edible flora

across this desert

is 19 kilograms
per square kilometer.

The amount of calories

contained within
this edible material

is 15 percent greater
than the amount of calories

required to locate,
prepare and ingest it.

This does not leave
enough excess energy

to justify any walking
that does not result in

additional food
being collected.

So too much walking
is dangerous?

There is
no way to be certain

that more food will be located

on any given day.

My recommendations
account for this uncertainty.

What recommendations
do you have for us

after today?

I have reported
my recommendations to Lernert.

She says, chances are
we're not going to make it.

Not... Not going to make it?

She says,

the direction
we're headed

has an even lower percentage
of flora, so...

there's a high probability

that we won't have
enough food to get there.

Then... then we'll just...

We'll just dig up
all we can find right now.

- Right.
- And we'll keep digging as we go.

Right. She factors that in, too.

But... these are
all just predictions

based on her calculations.

She doesn't
actually know anything.

So... we don't have to
follow her recommendations.

No.

Are you okay with that?

Yeah, I think so.

Adjust
three degrees to the left.

Lernert?

Lernert?

Only one of you
is necessary to retrieve water.

One of you should be
conserving energy.

The probability of these being

poisonous dactyl roots
is 82 percent.

Your energy would be
better spent resting.

Be sure to ration

the rest of
your prophilium turnip, Rola.

Need water soon.

Rola, let's keep walking.

Seriously, where does
all this stuff come from?

Rola, if we can't
eat it, we don't need it.

That was a good rhyme.

There's some
good stuff out here.

This is a perfect elbow.

This is
a waste of time.

Susan,

would you call building you
a body a waste of time?

Building a body for me

is not essential to
the current primary objective.

What's the current
primary objective?

The current
primary objective

is reaching the crystal lake.

I disagree.

You don't want to find the lake?

Of course I do, but it's
not my current primary objective.

Then what is?

To be happy.

"To be happy."

Yep.

Well, if you're going
to frame it so broadly,

I would say a more important
primary objective is survival.

That's what mine is.

It always has been
and it always will be.

Lernert, do you
want to be happy?

- That's a stupid question.
- No, it isn't.

Do you want to be happy?

I mean... of course.

I want to be happy.
Who doesn't want to be happy?

Susan, do you want to be happy?

Happiness is not
part of my programming.

There's somebody.

She's a robot.

Susan,

you said you missed Lernert
when you didn't have power.

Did that make you sad?

I am
programmed to miss Lernert

when powered down
for more than 96 hours.

Sadness is not part
of my programming.

Lernert?

- Lernert?
- What?

Please sit down.

We should really
just keep walking.

Just sit.

Lernert?

Yes.

I like you.

I like walking with you,
and I like talking with you

and I like the book
you're writing, and...

I like your knowledge
about plants, and...

I like the way your eye squints

whenever I'm saying
something that

you don't entirely
agree with.

And I like
the simple way you cook

and I like

the way you snore for
the first few minutes

after falling asleep.

- I snore?
- Yes, and I like it.

And I like you. And I just...
I want you to know that.

You want me to know that?

What don't you understand?

Why are you saying these things?

Because it's true.

And...

And you didn't have
to program me to say any of it.

You know what?

I'll carry Susan for a while.

All right.

Rola, if possible,
you should avoid steep hills.

Thank you for
the recommendation, Susan.

It shows you care.

You are welcome, Rola.

Lernert did
not program me to dream.

He did not think of it.

And he would not
have known how,

even if he did.

Susan,
is there a less direct route

that would require less energy?

No, there is not.

What if we
take smaller steps?

That would
not make a difference.

What about bigger steps?

That also would
not make a difference.

All right, Susan,
then what do you suggest?

We can't turn back now.

I am still unable
to come up with a solution,

except locating edible flora
as soon as possible.

Guess we'll
keep walking, then.

What direction now?

Forty-five
degrees to the right.

We'll find something.

This looks different.

Can we eat it?

I can't say. Susan,

can you tell me what this is?

I am unable
to properly identify

this specific species of flora.

However, the yellow skin
and pink pattern

closely resembles
the pomble beet.

What's a pomble beet?

It's an extremely
poisonous root.

Yellow skin and pink stripes.

This has pink spots,
not stripes, it's...

Sorry, Rola, it's too dangerous.

If you eat a pomble beet,
you're dead within 30 seconds.

Susan, how many days
till we reach the crystal lake?

That depends.

Over the previous six days,

your average walking speed
has decreased.

If this trend continues,

it will be at least eight days

until you reach
the crystal lake.

What are you doing?

Susan, count to 30.

One, two, three...

- Rola, spit it out!
- ...four...

- You should get your pellets out.
- ...five...

- in case this doesn't work.
- ...six, seven...

- No, pellets aren't strong enough!
- ...eight, nine...

- Rola, you need to throw it up.
- ...ten, eleven...

- But there is a chance that this isn't poisonous.
- ...12, 13...

- And if it isn't we have all the food that we need.
- ...14, 15, 16...

- And if it is poisonous, you'll die!
- ...17, 18...

- Rola, there's a smarter way to go about things.
- ...19, 20...

- What would be a smarter way, Lernert?
- ...21, 22, 23...

- Waiting till we find another kernyptus root?
- ...24, 25...

- We haven't found anything for a week.
- ...26...

- You could have at least taken a smaller bite!
- ...27, 28, 29, 30.

You're all right? You feel...

You feel good?

Healthy?

I feel fine, Lernert.

That was...

Rola, that was...

It appears
the flora is not pomble beet.

What's your favorite color?

- Hmm?
- Green?

Beige.

- Beige?
- Mm-hmm.

What's yours?

Hmm... blue.

Why?

'Cause every
shade of blue is pretty.

We're like the sky and the sand.

In the desert,
it is easy to get lost.

The dunes can look alike.

And the steps you took
to get somewhere, disappear.

But with good direction,
you can find your way.

I don't believe it.

Lernert, believe it.

Lernert! Lernert!

Lernert, you should test

the toxicity levels
of the water.

Without proper testing,

I cannot verify
that it is safe.

It's so beautiful.

When you
reach your destination,

the challenge becomes
knowing what to do next.

Susan.

Yes, Lernert?

Thank you for all your help.

We couldn't have
found the lake without you.

You are welcome.

There's programming
in here that I didn't program.

Residual traces of code

from those replacement parts
I was finding in the desert.

One of the memory chips

had the coordinates
of the crystal lake.

So someone else
was here, too.

Hi, Susan.

Hello, Lernert. Hello, Rola.

I've altered some of
your programming.

A few things are different.

You'll be able to set
your own primary objective now.

And...

And you won't miss me
automatically any more.

What about my body?

I owe you an apology, Susan.

For what?

I was never actually
building you a new body.

Not really.

You lied to me.

Yes, I lied.

Why?

I was afraid.

Afraid of what?

Of being alone.

Lernert,
I would not leave you alone.

And you did not
program me to say that.

Susan, what kind
of body do you want?

I want a body that can walk

for at least six days
in a row without stopping,

and can climb
a sand dune 30 meters high

and can carry over
100 kilograms of supplies.

And... and...

I want a body that can swim.

I think
I've figured out

the ending of my book.

Would you like to hear it?

Mm-hmm.

Well...

Todd, the Samurai,

sacrifices his life
for the king,

and his dead body rests
on a wooden table.

- Todd, dies?
- Mm-hmm.

The king, his servants,
the medicine man,

they're all standing
around the table,

their heads bowed in respect.

Suddenly, the doors open,

and in walks Lady Ree.

She strides over to the table,

and connects a golden tube,

from her chest to Todd's.

The tube begins to glow,

and Todd's eyes open up.

He's alive again.

- So Todd doesn't die?
- No.

And everyone is amazed
at what they've just seen.

A man has been
brought back to life.

The end.

Don't like it?

We stayed
by the water for six weeks.

Then we turned to the cities

and told others
about what we found.

We talked about
the soothing waves,

the fresh water,

the fish to eat,

and the high levels
of moisture in the air.

Many people did not believe us.

But some did.

And I led the believers
across the dunes.

The community at the lake
now has over 200 residents,

with twenty robots.
