[IN JAPANESE] I love you so much.
- [GRUNTS]
- [PERSON WHIMPERING]
- [SHRIEKS] Stop! Stop!
- I love you!
- I love you!
- [PERSON] Please don't!
- [PERSON 2] We have to stop him!
- [PEOPLE CLAMORING]
[PERSON 2] #17! Sleep!
Is he breathing?
[GRUNTING]
Can you hear me?
[PERSON 3] It will be fine.
No one will know.
[AIRPLANE PASSING OVERHEAD]
[ANNOUNCER] Flight 405 to Hokkaido
will be departing in 30 minutes.
I'm afraid we have bad news.
[MRS. SAKAMOTO SCREAMS]
[SOBBING, SCREAMING]
[PERSON] Suzie-san.
Please answer the lady's question.
Oh, uh
[PERSON] Use your device.
[IN JAPANESE] Sorry about her.
I was asking about your husband and son.
What they were wearing on the flight.
If they had any carry-on items?
- My son, Zen, had a backpack.
- [CRISIS MANAGER, IN JAPANESE] What color?
[IN JAPANESE] And your husband?
Uh
Maybe sweatpants?
What's the point of this anyway?
You have DNA.
Isn't that enough to figure out
whose charred body is whose?
Suzie-san. You heard them.
They're still looking for survivors.
[IN JAPANESE] We are
exploring all angles.
On Sunday, my son was wearing
a white long-sleeved polo,
and deep burgundy trousers
with a wide leg.
Is that correct, Mrs. Sakamoto?
How did you know that?
After you dropped them off,
Masa called me.
Such a good boy. [CHUCKLES]
I would've remembered eventually.
[IN JAPANESE] And on his feet?
[IN JAPANESE] For identification.
Shoes are quite resilient
in the face of trauma.
You can't keep a good shoe down.
[IN JAPANESE] You'll have to rely on my
daughter-in-law's memory,
I'm afraid.
Masa's feet were out of frame for me.
Well,
I guess you'll remember eventually.
Was your family
traveling with a homebot?
They don't have one.
A robot killed my mother.
- [IN JAPANESE] Really?
[MOTHER-IN-LAW, IN JAPANESE]
She's being dramatic.
It was a self-driving car.
Deemed user error.
It's still translating, Noriko.
[IN JAPANESE] But doesn't your husband
work at ImaTech?
[IN JAPANESE]
I just got the new Mr. Frigid.
Did he work on that?
Do you know
what your husband does all day?
[IN JAPANESE] My
husband makes furniture.
He is in prison.
a pretty good idea
of what he's wearing,
if you wanna know.
I'm gonna get another cookie.
[SIGHS, CHUCKLES]
[IN JAPANESE] I'm so sorry.
I think she's been self-medicating.
[HOMEBOT] Are you still working on that?
[PEOPLE CHATTERING, IN JAPANESE]
[SHOUTING]
- It's about to begin.
- What is?
The hotel is generously offering
a rui-katsu for the families.
You know I don't know what that means.
Tear-seeking ceremony.
It's supposed to help.
We could use it. Let's go.
I wanna get a good seat.
[IN JAPANESE] It is said
[PARTICIPANTS SNIFFLING]
a single drop of tear
can relieve a year of stress.
You are all well on your way.
[LEADER CONTINUES IN JAPANESE]
Man makes us cry
and then wipes away our tears.
- What?
- [SHUSHES]
[HANDSOME MAN, IN JAPANESE]
And so, I invite you
to call your loved ones
who were on Flight 405.
[CROWD MURMURS]
But their devices are dead.
It will go to voice message.
Precisely. That is the point.
To hear their voices.
To connect to your pain.
Who wants to go first?
[IN JAPANESE] Call Izumi.
[DEVICE] It's Izumi.
Please leave a message.
[SOBBING]
Call Maki.
[DEVICE] Hello. It's Ryota.
Please leave a message.
[PARTICIPANTS SOBBING]
on the way over here. So I'm good.
[IN JAPANESE] To cry alone is sad.
[SNIFFING]
Here, you don't have to feel different
or afraid.
Wouldn't you like to hear
your
Her husband and son.
Oh, dear.
When did you last see them?
Hear those voices?
So familiar. So comforting.
[SNIFFLING]
Yellow.
[SIGHS]
Call Masa.
[SNIFFLES]
[DEVICE] Calling Masa.
Calling Masa.
Calling Masa.
[NORIKO] But why would the others
go to message and his just rings?
[GASPS] Unless
Do you think it means good news?
That's not what it means.
You do not know.
You do not understand technology.
She said there could still be survivors.
Oh, my God.
Because she was being polite.
- [SPEAKING JAPANESE]
[CHUCKLES]
- [SPEAKS JAPANESE]
Yakuza.
In tragedy, they scurry out
like cockroaches to help.
But they always want
something in return.
Best not to ask.
Sad, really.
In my day,
they'd at least hand out rice crackers.
But they've gone downhill.
[GASPS]
Don't eat that junk.
[ANCHOR, IN JAPANESE] The
rescue operation for Flight 405
is still ongoing.
Meanwhile, services for Councilor Ito
will be held tomorrow
after the councilor
suffered a fatal fall
inside his home
only a few days ago.
[SHOPPER] A tragedy.
[SIGHS]
Please do not be frightened.
I work with your husband.
[IN JAPANESE] Yuki Tanaka.
We are all sorry about your sadness.
I have brought a gift.
[GRUNTS, BREATHING HEAVILY]
It is nothing. Insignificant.
You're so kind to think of me.
Please, don't be shy.
[YUKI BREATHES HEAVILY]
- [YUKI] Top-of-the-line.
- [SUZIE SIGHS]
Hajimemashite, Suzie-san. I'm Sunny.
I'm so happy to finally meet you.
- Bring it in.
- Okay.
Uh. I'm a hugger, but we'll get there.
Don't hold your breath.
I can't! I don't breathe!
[LAUGHING]
Classic Masa-san, no?
Wait. What What's classic Masa?
[YUKI] That sense of humor.
He worked so hard
to make this new model jovial.
Sorry. I'm I'm confused. Um
Masa works in refrigerators.
[YUKI CHUCKLES] I get it.
You are also laugh riot. [LAUGHING]
Oh.
[GASPS]
Uh, fridge and freezer division moved
to Myanmar twelve years ago.
[BREATHING HEAVILY]
I need to, um [PANTS]
[YUKI] See, we programmed Sunny special
for you, Suzie-san.
Based on what we know
from Masa about your preferences.
That you hate bananas
No bananas will enter these halls.
[YUKI] That you love to run.
That it's been difficult for you
to make friends here in Japan.
It's because I'm dyslexic.
Did he tell you that?
That languages are hard for me?
[STAMMERS] No.
I am sorry for your disability.
You're very brave.
[SUNNY SIGHING]
Still, our research shows
that robots can be of great comfort
for people in need of companionship.
- I'm fine.
- Think of Sunny as a pet.
I don't want a pet.
I don't want a robot.
- I hate robots!
- May I ask why?
- Because they're creepy.
- Oh.
But robots are expressions
of their creators.
Sunny was created by your husband.
You do not find Masa creepy?
Not till now.
[YUKI] I hope that is not true,
Suzie-san.
The Masa I know is a good man.
And I believe he would take comfort
in knowing you have Sunny.
Please.
Masa would take great comfort
Okay, fine!
I'll keep it.
Just tell me how to turn it off.
[SIGHS] Simply say,
"Sunny, sleep."
It didn't work.
Is it broken? It's broken.
Sunny belongs to you, Suzie-san.
Only you can control.
Best of luck.
[IN JAPANESE] You are in my thoughts.
[SUZIE SIGHS]
- [GASPS]
- So, shall we get to know
Sunny, sleep.

[SOBBING]
Oh, geez! Fucking Christ.
Seemed like you could use a drink.
And apparently I can read a room.
You don't buy that whole wine
before liquor thing, do you?
I put you in the closet.
How did How'd you get out?
Uh. I'm not sure, Suzie.
But if it upsets you,
I will try not to do it again.
I was programmed to adapt to you.
Did you really know my husband?
My first memory is meeting you.
And I'm dying to get to know you better!
What are you into?
Music? Sports? Bird-watching?

Whoa. You must be a rough lady. Huh?
Rough? Why?
Yeah, because Sakamoto-san.
He's intense. He's super intimidating.
You do not want to be the asshole
who disappoints him.
You just pray he gets hit by bus
before you have to present
in front of him.
Well, you must be thrilled then.
[IN JAPANESE] Crap.
Mrs. Sakamoto, please.
I am very sorry.
Because of party, I am
- I am wasted, right?
- Mmm.
That is why I forget
what happened to your husband.
Oh, and your son too.
- Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
- [SIGHS]
They really should
have just canceled this thing.
It's so messed up.
Masa, he is so smart.
And he just wants us to be smart too.
Like my father.
- My father is dead too. [WHIMPERS]
- Mmm.
[CRIES]
It is said that a single drop of tear
can relieve a year of stress.
- [WHIMPERS]

[DEVICE BEEPING, CHIMES]
[DEVICE] Sakamoto incubator.
Hey. Hi.
What the fuck, Masa?
[SERVER] Here you go. The beetle wing.
[SPEAKS JAPANESE]
- Mmm.
It's delicious.
Two parts Vermouth. Shit.
Sorry, I'll make you another.
No, no, no. I really
I'm I shouldn't
Oh. Let me make it up to you.
I can make you something else.
Please.
A whiskey would be great. Neat.
You know this is a cocktail bar, right?
[SIGHS]
It's just a faster means to an end.
Yeah. Okay.
You need this then.
Yep.
[LIQUID POURING]
Disinfectant for the soul.
Sorry about the drink.
I guess I'm a bit nervous.
[WHISPERS] I just got this job.
Do you come here a lot?
Yeah, we come
My husband and I come here all the time.
Are you okay?
Fine.
[SIGHS]
So
where's your husband tonight?
No idea, actually.
We, um
just broke up.
He's super intimidating.
You don't wanna be the asshole
that disappoints him.
- I don't know why I said that.
- [STAMMERS] It's okay.
You know, I read it takes 21 days
to adapt to new things.
- How long has it been?
- Like a week.
So you're halfway there.
A third of the way.
Do you think that's why
you're having trouble with those?
Because your math sucks?
[CHUCKLES]
Think that's why you split up?
Because your personality sucks?
- Probably.
- [CHUCKLES]
I'm Mixxy, by the way.
Suzie.
You sure I can't try
another drink on you?
[MIXXY] So, did you come to Japan
for your husband?
[SUZIE] Nah.
We met here.
First date was at this bar, actually.
Right after I moved to Kyoto.
So I've never really
been here on my own.
Even though that was the whole reason
I moved in the first place.
To be on your own?
I love this song.
It's my favorite.
Mine too.
You know what we call that?
Akai ito. Red thread of destiny.
Hey.
Do you wanna see something
I've never shown anyone?
Okay?
It's falling out.
From stress.
I have a freckle in my eyelid.
Oh, yeah.
It was supposed to be lucky.
[SUZIE CHUCKLES]
- I should let you get home.
- Nah.
My girlfriend and I
just broke up as well.
So I have no one to go home to.
[CHUCKLES] Except my bot.
And even with a strap-on,
she's kind of a one-trick pony.
You You fuck your homebot?
- What?
- Sorry. I just
I mean, how
how do you even make it do it to you?
I have a dealer.
What kind of dealer?
Code. I just do the sex stuff,
but there is this whole guide
that lets you hack into bots.
Make them do whatever you want.
I mean, did you hear about that bot
that fell down the stairs
and crushed that politician?
Yeah. That That guy, Ito.
What What about him?
I hear it wasn't an accident.
But that's absurd.
I mean if robots were killing people,
we would definitely know about it.
Um, would we?
Don't get me wrong, I love my bot,
but I don't trust her.
That's why I always
turn her completely off.
Not just put her to sleep.
It's fucking terrifying
what these bots are capable of.
You know what? It's been a long day.
I'm gonna go.
[MIXXY] Oh, come on. What did I say?
[SIGHS]
[IN JAPANESE] Next.
Next.
Send files.
Message: We're on her.
She's alone.
[PANTING]

Search, "Masa Sakamoto."
Search, "House of Councilors,
Ito, robot, killed."

Zoom in.

Cheese. [CHUCKLES]
No, no. [LAUGHING]

I made cookies!
- [GIGGLES]
- What the fuck?
I can make you something else.
Maybe you're more of a pie person.
Suzie, I feel like we got off
on the wrong foot.
I was trying to clean up last night,
then you came home,
I panicked and put myself to sleep.
Go fuck yourself.
Are you sure you wanna do that? [KISSES]
