One day many years ago, the Nick family had a robotic butler, Andrew.
He seems to be a little special, unlike other robots who follow the rules and only listen to the master's orders. He seems to have some ideas of his own. Once, when Nick's young daughter showed Andrew her favorite toy, a crystal horse, the toy was accidentally broken by Andrew, which made Andrew feel guilty. He flipped through various tools. The book actually made a lifelike little wooden horse out of wood. This allows the male host Nick to discover that Andrew is different: he can learn, think, and have emotions that are different from robots. So, the master decided to let Andrew do some work other than serving their family, and teach him the knowledge of the human world personally.
Time passed slowly, the youngest daughter of Nick's family has grown up, and Andrew has been by the family's side. With Nick's help, he had a facial upgrade that made him look more human. One day, the younger daughter told Andrew that she was going to marry her boyfriend, but she had a close friend, and whenever she was with this friend, she would forget her boyfriend. Andrew didn't hear the voiceover of the younger daughter. He said, then you should be with this friend. The younger daughter was stunned. She fell in love with Andrew, but she couldn't speak, because she didn't have the courage to be with the robot. The younger daughter was still married to her boyfriend. When her boyfriend led her out of the church, Andrew was wearing a tuxedo.
A few years later, Nick's youngest daughter became a mother and gave birth to a naughty boy, and the boy seemed to dislike Andrew a little. He called Andrew "it" instead of "he", which made Andrew a little angry. Learn all kinds of human knowledge, experience human emotions, start wearing clothes, and have expressions... just want to be like a human being. He finally made a decision: he wants to be free! He has read countless books and learned from them that countless struggles in human history are for freedom, and only when he is free can he be more like a human being. He came up with his ideas with his old master, Nick, who went from shock to sadness - he'd treated Andrew as his student, friend and child over the years. Andrew left anyway. He built a house by the sea and started a free life as a robot.
Until one day, the old master Nick passed away. The death of the old man who brought Andrew into the human world made Andrew make a decision to go all over the world to find robots with the same autonomous ideas as him. He went on the road alone and traveled many, many places until he was about to be disappointed when he met a man who successfully helped him to take off the appearance of a machine and simulate human skin, he looked like a human being Exactly the same, no longer a mechanical appearance, and a simulated nervous system that allows him to sense. He was very excited and ran to Nick's youngest daughter's house, only to find out that a long time had passed, the young daughter who was once young had grown old, and her granddaughter, Bo Xia, was also the age of an adult girl.
Time is infinite in Andrew. He will not grow old and die. No matter how many years, he can maintain his current appearance, but the people he cares about are getting old and leaving one by one.
The granddaughter of Nick's youngest daughter, Bo Xia, has the same beauty as her grandmother when she was young. She also fell in love with Andrew. The difference is that she chose bravery and increased the nervous system to have Andrew's emotions. The same, also. In love with Posha. They are together. Andrew felt the feeling of love from Bo Xia, and experienced a deeper desire. It seems that everything is perfect, but he still wants a human identity, an identity that can enter the marriage hall with Bo Xia.
Andrew began to constantly fight for this identity, and when he stood in court, he said that he was like a human being, with human appearance, human senses, and even human heart, the judge pointed to his head , ask him, where is it? Andrew was speechless. Yes, his brain is still artificial intelligence.
Not having a human identity does not affect the love between Andrew and Portia. They have been together for a long time, so long that Portia is old, and Andrew is still the same. Andrew invented a medicine that could prolong life for Bo Xia, but Bo Xia didn't want to live forever.
"Everything in the world has its own laws of endless life. Human beings follow the laws of nature and grow old, sick and die. This is right."
For Andrew, time is endless, but what is the meaning of life without someone in love? He decided that he would completely become a human, he would change the blood of a human, and he would age and die together with his lover.
he made it.
When Andrew and Bo Xia were dying, the government finally announced that it would recognize the marriage of Andrew and Bo Xia, as well as Andrew's human identity! And he didn't seem to hear it, and fell into eternal sleep, but these are not important, because he is already a human being.
