We have reconnected to Dimension 404.
So, what do you do? Huh? What do you do? Oh, uh, I kinda run this music blog.
Uh-huh, and where are you from? Well, originally I'm from Maine.
Uh-huh, and where do you live now? Right here, in Brooklyn.
(clearing throat) So, what do you do? I don't like to talk about work.
Look, I hate these things, too.
You know, I feel like everyone in the room can tell that we're on a first date.
No one's paying attention.
So, if you could be any animal, what animal would you be? This isn't going very well, is it? Yeah, no, this is over.
You can go.
Good luck out there.
Some romances last a lifetime, but most don't make it past the first cup of coffee.
Still, don't feel too bad for our lonely lovebird Adam.
Thanks to the magic of ones and zeroes, he's about to meet his one and only.
Her name's Amanda.
She likes craft beer, good music, and she lives on the Lower East Side of Dimension 404.
Well, it's official.
I'm gonna die alone.
What? Don't say that.
Greg, I've looked, flirted, and met-cute half of the women in Brooklyn, and I'm honestly starting to think that my soul mate doesn't exist.
You know, she's like a myth, like Bigfoot.
Dude, she exists, she's out there.
Just like Bigfoot.
- Wow, I need a beer.
- You're out of beer.
Look, man, you just gotta broaden your horizons.
Stop meeting weird randos on the street and start meeting them online.
Online, online dating? - Yeah.
- No! Look, I don't want some algorithm telling me who to hook up with, all right? I just want to meet a cute girl, you know, with a cute little red streak in her hair and a tattoo of a bird while we're both reaching for the same Talking Heads LP.
There are 413 eligible women that are Talking Heads fans within a two-mile radius of this apartment.
Wait, really; what is that? Make-A-Match, bro, everybody's on it.
Why are you on it, aren't you with Charlene? I'm not on it, you are.
- I made you a profile.
- What, when? Last night when I drank all your beer.
- Greg! - Come on, man.
Look at all of these women.
What do you have to lose? All right, fine.
All right, fine.
No promises.
I can't afford it, you can, so I drink it.
We met on Make-A-Match.

God, you know, this this this is too weird.
I can't do it, I'm out, no.

Absotively.
Uh, absolutely.
Of course.
Hey, don't torture yourself like this.
Just keep an eye out.
All right, here we go.
Adam, Mk 6.
"How can we improve your next love companion?" "Improve your love companion.
" Occupation lawyer? A lawyer? (scoffs) Actually, that's Hey, did she keep anything? Adam, what'd she keep? Nothing.
(groaning) What's up with him? They're activating a new Adam today.
I think he's taking it pretty hard.
So, what do you do? I'm a lawyer.
I work downtown.
Uh-huh, and where are you from? Manhattan, born and raised.
(gurgling) (groaning continues) You know he hasn't eaten in days? Christ.
- We need to get him to open up.
- (exhales) Sad bro, you okay over there? (groaning continues) If you could be any animal, what kind of animal would you be? (chuckling) I'd be a shark, 'cause they never stop moving.
Neither do I.
But you know what, enough about me, right? Let's talk about you.
You like music? 'Cause I don't.
Especially indie rock, ugh.
(groaning) All right, buddy.
Time to wipe away those tears, huh? Look, I'm an upfront guy.
I don't see this going anywhere, so, what do you say we call it? This is over, you can go.
It's time to kick the day's ass.
(screaming) Good luck out there.
Absotively.
I mean lutely.
Hey.
What's your model number? Six.
Code Sapphire! Repeat, Code Sapphire! (grunting) (sirens wailing) (zapping) We met on Make-A-Match.
When my best friend introduced me to Make-A-Match, I was a little skeptical.
I mean, your 100 percent perfect match guaranteed? What's the catch, right? But we met and it was just this instant connection.
(chuckling) From then on out, our love only grew.
Isn't that right, snookums? Sure.
It's like we were made for each other.
Every day is brighter than the last.
Make-A-Match is too good to be true, but it is true, and it is good.
Eskimo kiss.
Okay! Get a lot of those.
Adam? Adam.
Adam.
Adam! I'm proud of you, son.
I really am.
I mean, most companions would never dream of escaping, but you, you really would do anything to be with her again.
Maker.
I know how hard it is, how bad it hurts.
Like hell you do.
You get to leave here.
You get to go home to someone you love.
Well, not exactly.
She was my Amanda.
It wasn't until after she died that I realized how rare true love is and how awful this life is without it.
And that's what this place is all about.
There is not someone out there for everyone, but there should be.
(sighs) Adam, do you want to live in a cold, cramped cage day after day, or use your God-given gifts to make someone smile? You were born to love Amanda.
Mind, body, and soul.
It is your purpose, and you can fulfill that purpose again by being a part of the new Adam.
Through his eyes, you can see her smile again.
The recycling tube.
Cows don't leave the slaughterhouse.
Steaks do.
Chew on that.
(tube hissing) Hey.
Oh, hey, Greg.
You gonna stab me in the neck again? So, uh, you gonna kill yourself? How about a farewell toast, huh? Come on, last meal? Hey, to the best fake roommate I've ever had.
Sorry you're a clone.
The new Adam, he only drinks scotch.
What a douche, right? (sighs) I keep telling myself to forget her, man, but I was made for her.
So what the hell am I without her? (sighs) Maker's right.
I have to do this.
(zapping) God damn it, Greg.
What the hell am I doing? We met on Make-A-Match.
No, I'm all right.
When my last relationship didn't exactly pan out, I knew there was only one place to go.
Yee-haw! Between busting broncs, riding the range, and volunteering at the children's hospital, there wasn't a lot of time to find love, but with Make-A-Match, your special someone really is just a click away.
They sure are.
In fact, snookums, there's something I want to ask you.
No, no oh.
Son of a bitch.
(slap) Oh, ow, what the hell? Shut up, you're gonna get me fired.
I've already been here, Greg, all right, I've seen all this.
Not this.
What the hell is this? Just watch.
Okay, so, um my last relationship, uh ended in a pretty painful place.
We were together for four years, and I well, I I thought he was the one.
And then he cheated on me, and then he left.
I don't want to watch this, all right? Just turn it off, Greg.
Just watch, trust me.
And I was a mess.
My grades tanked, and I almost lost my scholarship.
So, I-I can't let that happen again.
I have to stay focused.
I just I'm really lonely.
You've come to the right place, Amanda.
Let Make-A-Match help you create your ideal companion.
I still can't believe I'm doing this.
Lots of first-timers feel that way, but Make-A-Match guarantees we'll make the perfect companion for your needs, everything from personality type, occupation, looks.
Could he look like Ben Branson? We'll get to that, but let's start with the basics.
Describe the qualities you want in your ideal companion.
I don't know, I guess I just want someone who's loyal and honest and kind.
You know who you are without her? You're loyal, you're honest, and you're kind.
It's gotta be worth something.
Don't want to hear about it I don't want to hear about it Don't want to hear about it I don't want to hear about it Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh Would somebody please turn this shit off? She even took this song from me.
No.
Remember feeling cold This song still rules.
She held my hand Just listen.
Bro, everything this song means to us is a lie.
I wanna feel it again Who cares? It's still a really great song.
I mean, "Tokyo Heartache" is beautiful on its own.
God damn it, so are we.
What are we even doing here, you guys? Just gorging on self-pity and whatever the hell that is.
We can't let one relationship define our whole lives.
We're more than that, and we deserve more than that.
Adam 5, resume your gruel eating.
We are who we are, not who they made us to be.
We may have been built to order, but we were born to be free! (electricity zapping) (shuddering) (commotion) Adam 5 is wrong.
Companions are legal property of Make (gasping) Let's burn this mother down! (cheering) And so it begins.
(cheering continues) Can I get a containment unit to sector 4 like now, please? (alarm buzzing) Attention, companions.
You are in violation of employee guidelines.
Please lower your weapons, lie on the floor, and the punishment squad will (shouting) Hey! Stop, stop fighting the punishment squad.
(shouting) (grunting) Code Sapphire! Code Sapphire, damn it! Code Sapphire! Exterminate on sight! Article 3, Section 7: expressions of free will and independent thought are strictly prohibited! You were built to love and obey! That is your purpose! Adhere, do your purpose! (shouting) I don't give a god damn about the Clone Extermination Act.
Someone get up here and save my ass! Do not touch that, you insolent piece of Your soul mate is out there.
Just like mine.
Eventually you can find them on Make-A-Match.
(door opening, shouting) No, ahh! (screaming) There is nothing out there for you.
This is where you belong.
I am your father, and you will do what Daddy demands.
Oh, hey, everybody, how are you guys? Wait, no, guys, wait, wait.
Hey, let go! No, no, no, wait! Wait, this isn't nice! Please, please! Wait, stop, stop, stop! Hi, yes, I'm calling about the job posting.
(shouting) Why did I leave my last job? Uh there was a change in management.
No, stop, no, no! (stammering) Kevin, Kevin! I designed you, you can't do this to me! Your girlfriend never loved you, and never will! (laughing) - (explosion, splat) - (ding) (cheering) (siren wailing) Sorry.
Hi! Hey.
- I'll flip you for it.
- No, you were here first.
So, do you, like, live around here now? No, I'm just actually coming back from band practice.
Oh, you're in a band now? That's pretty cool.
Yeah, yeah, I mean, we kinda suck actually, but, uh, you know, we have a lot of fun.
So, like, how are you, what are you up to? Everything's good, uh, my residency's good, just taking it slow.
Yeah.
It's it's really good to see you.

Let's hope not.
Absotively.
Uh, absolutely.
Of course.
Hey, don't torture yourself like this.
Just keep an eye out.
All right, here we go.
Adam, Mk 6.
"How can we improve your next love companion?" "Improve your love companion.
" Occupation lawyer? A lawyer? (scoffs) Actually, that's Hey, did she keep anything? Adam, what'd she keep? Nothing.
(groaning) What's up with him? They're activating a new Adam today.
I think he's taking it pretty hard.
So, what do you do? I'm a lawyer.
I work downtown.
Uh-huh, and where are you from? Manhattan, born and raised.
(gurgling) (groaning continues) You know he hasn't eaten in days? Christ.
- We need to get him to open up.
- (exhales) Sad bro, you okay over there? (groaning continues) If you could be any animal, what kind of animal would you be? (chuckling) I'd be a shark, 'cause they never stop moving.
Neither do I.
But you know what, enough about me, right? Let's talk about you.
You like music? 'Cause I don't.
Especially indie rock, ugh.
(groaning) All right, buddy.
Time to wipe away those tears, huh? Look, I'm an upfront guy.
I don't see this going anywhere, so, what do you say we call it? This is over, you can go.
It's time to kick the day's ass.
(screaming) Good luck out there.
Absotively.
I mean lutely.
Hey.
What's your model number? Six.
Code Sapphire! Repeat, Code Sapphire! (grunting) (sirens wailing) (zapping) We met on Make-A-Match.
When my best friend introduced me to Make-A-Match, I was a little skeptical.
I mean, your 100 percent perfect match guaranteed? What's the catch, right? But we met and it was just this instant connection.
(chuckling) From then on out, our love only grew.
Isn't that right, snookums? Sure.
It's like we were made for each other.
Every day is brighter than the last.
Make-A-Match is too good to be true, but it is true, and it is good.
Eskimo kiss.
Okay! Get a lot of those.
Adam? Adam.
Adam.
Adam! I'm proud of you, son.
I really am.
I mean, most companions would never dream of escaping, but you, you really would do anything to be with her again.
Maker.
I know how hard it is, how bad it hurts.
Like hell you do.
You get to leave here.
You get to go home to someone you love.
Well, not exactly.
She was my Amanda.
It wasn't until after she died that I realized how rare true love is and how awful this life is without it.
And that's what this place is all about.
There is not someone out there for everyone, but there should be.
(sighs) Adam, do you want to live in a cold, cramped cage day after day, or use your God-given gifts to make someone smile? You were born to love Amanda.
Mind, body, and soul.
It is your purpose, and you can fulfill that purpose again by being a part of the new Adam.
Through his eyes, you can see her smile again.
The recycling tube.
Cows don't leave the slaughterhouse.
Steaks do.
Chew on that.
(tube hissing) Hey.
Oh, hey, Greg.
You gonna stab me in the neck again? So, uh, you gonna kill yourself? How about a farewell toast, huh? Come on, last meal? Hey, to the best fake roommate I've ever had.
Sorry you're a clone.
The new Adam, he only drinks scotch.
What a douche, right? (sighs) I keep telling myself to forget her, man, but I was made for her.
So what the hell am I without her? (sighs) Maker's right.
I have to do this.
(zapping) God damn it, Greg.
What the hell am I doing? We met on Make-A-Match.
No, I'm all right.
When my last relationship didn't exactly pan out, I knew there was only one place to go.
Yee-haw! Between busting broncs, riding the range, and volunteering at the children's hospital, there wasn't a lot of time to find love, but with Make-A-Match, your special someone really is just a click away.
They sure are.
In fact, snookums, there's something I want to ask you.
No, no oh.
Son of a bitch.
(slap) Oh, ow, what the hell? Shut up, you're gonna get me fired.
I've already been here, Greg, all right, I've seen all this.
Not this.
What the hell is this? Just watch.
Okay, so, um my last relationship, uh ended in a pretty painful place.
We were together for four years, and I well, I I thought he was the one.
And then he cheated on me, and then he left.
I don't want to watch this, all right? Just turn it off, Greg.
Just watch, trust me.
And I was a mess.
My grades tanked, and I almost lost my scholarship.
So, I-I can't let that happen again.
I have to stay focused.
I just I'm really lonely.
You've come to the right place, Amanda.
Let Make-A-Match help you create your ideal companion.
I still can't believe I'm doing this.
Lots of first-timers feel that way, but Make-A-Match guarantees we'll make the perfect companion for your needs, everything from personality type, occupation, looks.
Could he look like Ben Branson? We'll get to that, but let's start with the basics.
Describe the qualities you want in your ideal companion.
I don't know, I guess I just want someone who's loyal and honest and kind.
You know who you are without her? You're loyal, you're honest, and you're kind.
It's gotta be worth something.
Don't want to hear about it I don't want to hear about it Don't want to hear about it I don't want to hear about it Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh Would somebody please turn this shit off? She even took this song from me.
No.
Remember feeling cold This song still rules.
She held my hand Just listen.
Bro, everything this song means to us is a lie.
I wanna feel it again Who cares? It's still a really great song.
I mean, "Tokyo Heartache" is beautiful on its own.
God damn it, so are we.
What are we even doing here, you guys? Just gorging on self-pity and whatever the hell that is.
We can't let one relationship define our whole lives.
We're more than that, and we deserve more than that.
Adam 5, resume your gruel eating.
We are who we are, not who they made us to be.
We may have been built to order, but we were born to be free! (electricity zapping) (shuddering) (commotion) Adam 5 is wrong.
Companions are legal property of Make (gasping) Let's burn this mother down! (cheering) And so it begins.
(cheering continues) Can I get a containment unit to sector 4 like now, please? (alarm buzzing) Attention, companions.
You are in violation of employee guidelines.

You were built to love and obey! That is your purpose! Adhere, do your purpose! (shouting) I don't give a god damn about the Clone Extermination Act.
Someone get up here and save my ass! Do not touch that, you insolent piece of Your soul mate is out there.
Just like mine.
Eventually you can find them on Make-A-Match.
(door opening, shouting) No, ahh! (screaming) There is nothing out there for you.
This is where you belong.
I am your father, and you will do what Daddy demands.
Oh, hey, everybody, how are you guys? Wait, no, guys, wait, wait.
Hey, let go! No, no, no, wait! Wait, this isn't nice! Please, please! Wait, stop, stop, stop! Hi, yes, I'm calling about the job posting.
(shouting) Why did I leave my last job? Uh there was a change in management.
No, stop, no, no! (stammering) Kevin, Kevin! I designed you, you can't do this to me! Your girlfriend never loved you, and never will! (laughing) - (explosion, splat) - (ding) (cheering) (siren wailing) Sorry.
Hi! Hey.
- I'll flip you for it.
- No, you were here first.
So, do you, like, live around here now? No, I'm just actually coming back from band practice.
Oh, you're in a band now? That's pretty cool.
Yeah, yeah, I mean, we kinda suck actually, but, uh, you know, we have a lot of fun.
So, like, how are you, what are you up to? Everything's good, uh, my residency's good, just taking it slow.
