Opening Scene:
[Nathaniel and Ashia are in the laboratory testing and checking Alex (P93).]

Ashia 2: If this all works to plan, P93 will be revolutionary. Think about it, an actual robot that can develop its own thought
processes and emotions! Think of the possibilities, all the money saved because P93 doesn’t have needs. We could get it to
do any job we needed done, without complaints, without having to give it a wage. It’ll be amazing.

Nathaniel: I don’t know. The more that I think about it, the more it’s worrying me. I mean, we’ve been keeping it in hiding
for so long in this little lab. [He paces around the room] We’ve been testing it, and testing it and it’s becoming more aware
of its surroundings. And as its understanding its environment, it’s asking questions. Questions about the outside world. I’ve
told it what things look, taste and smell like. I’m scared it’s going to become too curious and frustrated what if it becomes
out of our control? What if it’s tired of being stuck on the operating table, and wants to see the outside and experience it?
What if it escapes? We can’t take that risk! We need to terminate it.

Ashia 2: We can’t terminate it! We can’t just throw away all that time and effort we put into it and just forget about it!

Nathaniel: Then we have to tell somebody about it.

Ashia 2: NO. This is OUR project, our time and money spent on it. We can’t tell anyone about it. Besides, it doesn’t know
much right now. We haven’t told it much. It only really knows his name, and about us.

Nathaniel: [Sigh] I’m too tired right now to be arguing with you. We’ll discuss this later. I better get home; Kerry’s probably
wondering where I am this late at night. She’s a sweet daughter [smile]. Anyway, could you lock up for me?

Ashia 2: Yeah, sure. Whatever. Goodnight Professor Dry.

Nathaniel: Thanks, see you later.

[Nathaniel exits, leaving Alex on the operating table and Ashia grabbing the keys to lock up for the night, Ashia is whistling
a song]

Ashia 2: [to self] Stupid guy thinks we can just throw this project away...

[A woman screams from outside, Ashia is scared and looks out of the window, to see a woman laughing and screaming
because her boyfriend is pinching her butt. Ashia sighs and shakes her head, and turns around. Alex is there, right in front of
her, in her face. Alex throws her across the room, knocking her out. He then runs away – ending up at the beach. While he is
running, he looks back to see if anyone is chasing him, and falls off the edge of the cliff.] [BLACKOUT]

Scene one:
[NEXT DAY: Enter Kerry, noticing Alex laying there malfunctioning [shaking his head in a robotic way] from the fall. She
walks up to him and kneels beside him, touching his arm. The malfunctioning stops, and Alex looks at Kerry. He stands up,
looking forward into her eyes.]

Alex: Hello. I am P93.

Kerry: My...my name is Kerry. W-what ARE you?

Alex: I am a robot.

Kerry: Wow. Where are you from?

Alex: I won’t say. They might find me. Don’t make me say. I escaped, and I kept running and running. But when I looked
back, I tripped and fell of that cliff [looks up and points]

Kerry: Oh. Okay, fine. I won’t make you say. So, were you made then?

Alex: Yes, I was made. But I hate my creators. They want to terminate me; they think it’s wrong for me to live. I won’t let
them terminate me!

Kerry: Sorry.
Alex: Do not apologize. I am glad I have escaped; now I can be free.

[Small pause]

Kerry: This is all so strange. I come here for a walk along the beach and find a stranded robot.

Alex: Should I go?

Kerry: No, it’s just quite hard to take in. I didn’t even know robots existed. [pause] Can I touch your face?

Alex: Yes, you can.
