Roscoe: WHY NOT?
LOW MAINTENANCE
COMPANION. IT COULD

BETA, NO!
WAIT! STOP!

THIS TECHNOLOGY
FOR YOUR ENTERTAINMENT,
SON.
AT LEAST I USE IT.
I MEAN, IF YOU WANNA
KEEP YOUR FUNDING,

SOMETHING WITH I INSTEAD OF JUS TALKING ABOUT IT.
HEY, WHY--WHY DON'T YOU

WHAT ARE YOU,
THEIR MANAGER?
DO 'EM A FAVOR.
PUT 'EM OU OF THEIR MISERY.
HEY, THEY SOUNDED GREAT.
YEAH, BUT...

IT'S ABOUT IMAGE.
LUV,

DON'T EVEN TRY
Roscoe: ANYBODY
CAN LEARN TO DANCE.
TRUST ME, ROSCOE.
YOU DON'T WANNA
GO THERE.
OK, NOBODY'S PERFECT, OK?
OH, OK.
IT'S NOT JUS THE DANCING ANYWAY, SAM.
IT'S ATTITUDE,
PERSONALITY.
YEAH, IT'S
AN INNER CONNECTION
TO THE MUSIC.
I'VE GOT A CONNECTION.
AFTER ALL,
I WRITE THE SONGS--
AND A REAL PERSONALITY.
WELL, NO ONE CARES
ABOUT REAL.
THEY WAN LARGER THAN LIFE.
SHE'S RIGHT, SAM.
THERE'S WAY TOO MUCH
NEGATIVE ENERGY HERE.
HEY.
WORKIN' ON
SOME NEW LYRICS?
YEAH. CAN YOU THINK
OF ANYTHING
THAT RHYMES WITH
PAIN AND MISERY?
HEY. ALL THE YEARS
WE'VE BEEN FRIENDS,
HAVE I EVER
GIVEN YOU BAD ADVICE?
ALWAYS.
SO I'M DUE FOR
SOME GOOD ADVICE.
LOOK...
YOU WRITE AWESOME SONGS.
MAYBE IT'S JUST TIME
TO LET SOMEONE ELSE
SING THEM...
AN ADDITION TO THE BAND,
NOT A REPLACEMENT.
OH.
OK.
HERE.
SAVE THIS.
YOUR ORIGINAL
LYRIC SHEETS
WILL BE WORTH
A FORTUNE SOMEDAY.
SEE, THAT'S WHAT I LIKE
ABOUT YOU, ROSCOE.
YOU'RE ALWAYS...
LOOKING TO THE FUTURE.
YEAH, TELL MY FATHER.
TO HIM, MY VISION
IS NEVER GRAND ENOUGH.
I WISH THERE WAS
SOME SECRE TO BEING EVERYTHING
PEOPLE WANTED US TO BE.
YEAH, WELL...
UNTIL SOMEONE
BOTTLES PERFECTION,
I GUESS WE'RE STUCK
WITH WHAT WE'VE GOT.
SO HOW ARE THINGS
IN YOUR PART OF THE WORLD?
ALL RIGHT, I GUESS.
THINGS ARE
A LITTLE ROUGH
FOR SAM RIGHT NOW.
MMM. I COULDN'T THINK
OF A MORE PERFECT MATCH.
[CHUCKLES]
DAD, SAM AND I
ARE JUST FRIENDS.
SO WHAT'S THE PROBLEM?
I DON'T KNOW.
I MEAN, SHE'S FUN
TO BE WITH.
BUT SHE GETS
SO MOODY.
SHE'S TALENTED.
BUT SHE CAN BE
SO STUBBORN.
I LIKE HER. BUT...
SEE?
THAT'S THE PROBLEM.
HOW DO YOU GET PAS ALL THOSE BUTS?
SHIP THEM OFF TO CHINA.
WHAT?
OVERNIGHT. EVERY
LAST ONE OF 'EM. WE--
THEY NEED
THE TECHNOLOGY.
WE'VE GOT A SURPLUS.
IT'S A MATCH MADE IN HEAVEN.
THANKS FOR THE HELP.
WHAT?
SO, YOU HAVE
A GOOD DAY, HUH?

I DROPPED IT IN THE SAND,
AND I OWE 100 GRAND!
MY LIFE IS A LIBRARY BOOK!
MY LIFE IS
A DUMB SCHOOL SONG
THAT I KEEP SINGING WRONG!
OH, HAIL TO OUR SCHOOL,

MY LIFE IS
A DUMB SCHOOL SONG!
MY LIFE IS A MATH EXAM,
AND I FORGOT TO CRAM!
THE TEACHER'S

'CAUSE THAT'S ALL

[COMPUTER
EMITS TONE]
EXCUSE ME.
I'M HERE FOR

A WIDE VOCAL RANGE
WHO CAN ALSO DANCE.
SO IF YOU CAN'T DANCE...

DO YOU KNOW
NOTHING'S WRONG WITH ME?
[BAND PLAYS
NOTHING'S WRONG WITH ME]
YOU MAY FIND ME

I LIKE DANCIN' BAREFOO IN THE POURIN' RAIN
MY MIND IS RACIN'

I FEEL THE NEED
TO STAND OUT IN A CROWD
NOTHIN'S WRONG WITH ME
NOTHIN'S WRONG WITH ME
FREAK OUT,
AND STAND MY GROUND
NOTHIN' IN THE WORLD

NOTHIN'S WRONG WITH ME
[MUSIC STOPS]
Rachel: WOW.
WHERE DID YOU LEARN
TO MOVE LIKE THAT?
UH, YOU DON'T LEARN
TO MOVE LIKE THAT, SAM.
IT KINDA COMES
WITH THE HARDWARE.
UM, I DON'T THINK
I CAUGHT YOUR NAME.
LORETTA.
LORETTA MODERN.
WELL, HA,
IT'S NICE TO MEET YOU.
[VOICE ECHOING]
SORRY ABOUT THAT.
SURPRISE.
LADIES...
MEET YOUR NEW
LEAD SINGER.
Roscoe: MY FATHER'S
BEEN WORKING ON
HOLOGRAPHIC TECHNOLOGY
AND ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE
FOR SKYGRAPH.
HE JUST HASN'T APPLIED I TO HUMAN FORM.
SHE'S SO REAL.
YOU'RE IN MY LIVER.
EWW.
Roscoe:
DON'T WORRY ABOUT IT.
SHE DOESN'T HAVE A LIVER.
WELL, I KNOW WHERE
IT'S SUPPOSED TO BE.
SHE PULLS WHATEVER
INFORMATION SHE NEEDS
RIGHT OFF THE NET.
THAT MEANS
SHE KNOWS EVERYTHING.
IT'S INCREDIBLE.
I DON'T EVEN SEE
A PROJECTOR.
SHE DOESN'T NEED ONE.
THE COMPUTER
USES ECHO LOCATION
TO MEASURE THE ROOM
AND PULSING FREQUENCIES
TO HOLD HER PATTERN.
HERE, WATCH THIS.
I CAN CHANGE HER HAIR,
HER EYES, HER WHOLE LOOK.
[RACHEL LAUGHS]
Cindy: WOW,
THAT IS SO COOL.
I LOVE THIS OUTFIT.
THIS IS
JUST PLAIN WEIRD.
[BIRDS CHIRPING]
Rachel: NO, IT'S FANTASTIC.
Cindy: CAN YOU IMAGINE
GOING BACK TO MOXLEY
WITH HER SINGING LEAD?
Roscoe: AS LONG AS NO ONE
TRIES TO TOUCH HER,
NOBODY WILL EVER KNOW.
[CHIRPING]
Loretta: ROSCOE?
YEAH?
CAN YOU GIVE ME A HAND?
WELL, SURE. WITH WHAT?
I MEAN, A HAND.
OH, YUCK. EW.
HOW MANY TIMES
DO I HAVE TO TELL YOU?
YOU HAVE TO STAY AWAY
FROM WINDOWS AND DOORS
THAT LEAD OUTSIDE.
WHY?
HOLOGRAMS
CAN ONLY EXIST INDOORS.
I CAN'T TELL YOU HOW MANY TIMES
I'VE LOST THE CAT.
WE'LL HAVE TO BUILD YOU
A NEW HAND FROM SCRATCH.
HEY, ROSCOE,
DOES YOUR FATHER
KNOW ABOUT LORETTA?
ARE YOU KIDDING?
IF HE FINDS OUT,
HE'LL DELETE HER.
THEN I SUGGES WE HIDE HER. FAST.
[CAR ALARM BEEPS]
Roscoe: PRESS THE BUTTON
EVERY TIME THE ALARM STOPS.
IT'S GOOD FOR ABOU 5 MINUTES.
[BEEP BEEP]
[CAR ALARM BLARING]
[CAR ALARM STOPS]
[BEEP BEEP]
[CAR ALARM BLARING]
SAVOR IT NOW.
DEFEATED BY TECHNOLOGY.
[CAR ALARM BLARING]
Cindy: I LOVE IT.
Rachel: WHAT'S THAT?
HOLOGRAM STORAGE CELL.
MY DAD INVENTED IT.
THINKS THESE TWO
WERE STOLEN BY COMPETITION.
YOU ARE SO BAD.
Roscoe:
ALL RIGHTY. READY
FOR BED, LORETTA?
CIAO, EVERYONE.
[BEEP]
[BEEPING]
[TELEPHONE RINGS]

ALL RIGHT. BYE.
[BEEP]
[ANSWERING MACHINE
BEEPS]
WHY DIDN'T YOU
TALK TO HER?
I--I ALWAYS
SCREEN MY CALLS
WHEN I'M BUSY.
IT'S NO BIG DEAL.
Dad: ROSCOE?
I GOTTA HIDE YOU.
UH, HEY, DAD.
WHO YOU TALKING TO?
UH, NO ONE, NO ONE.
MY-MY-MYSELF.
HUH.
WOW.
IMPRESSIVE.
YEAH. YEAH, WELL,
IT'S--IT'S JUST A HAND.
WELL, WHY DON'T WE
TEAM UP AND WORK
ON THIS TOGETHER?
I--I DON'T--
I DON'T NEED HELP.
I JUST THINK
THAT I COULD--
MAYBE SOME--
SOME OTHER TIME.
ALL RIGHT, FINE.
Roscoe: IT'S SIMPLE, MAX.
ALL YOU HAVE TO DO IS PLUG IN
THE QUADRATIC FORMULA,
AND SOLVE FOR "X."
HOW CAN I DO THAT?
I DON'T KNOW WHAT "X" IS.
COME ON, MAX.
YOUR MOTHER'S
THE HEAD OF SKYGRAPH.
SOME OF THOSE BRAINS
MUST HAVE TRICKLED DOWN.
WELL, YOU KEEP
WORKIN' ON THIS.
I'LL BE RIGHT BACK.
WAIT!
WHERE ARE YOU GOIN'?
COME ON!
WHAT'S MORE IMPORTANT,
SOME GIRL
OR MY MATH TEST?
Roscoe: SAM, WAIT UP.
HI.
HEY.
I HAVEN'T SEEN YOU
ALL WEEK.
YEAH, WELL, YOU KNOW,
I'VE BEEN WORKIN'
PRETTY HARD
FINE-TUNING LORETTA.
I WANT HER TO BE JUST RIGH FOR HER FIRST GIG.
FIRST GIG?
WHAT DO YOU KNOW
THAT I DON'T?
ARE YOU GONNA GO
TO THE DANCE ON SATURDAY?
WELL, THAT DEPENDS.
ARE YOU ASKING ME?
WHAT'S THE POIN IN ASKING
IF YOU'RE GONNA BE
ON STAGE THE WHOLE TIME?
WHAT DO YOU MEAN?
THE INFECTIOUS MEASLES
ARE PLAYING.
AREN'T THEY?
[FEEDBACK]
THIS OVER HERE.
IS THIS ON?
[FEEDBACK]
HELLO? EXCUSE ME.
WOW.
I KNOW ALL OF YOU HERE
ARE WAITING
TO CATCH THE INFECTIOUS
MEASLES TONIGHT.
[ALL CHEERING]
UM, I'M SORRY TO SAY
THAT THE INFECTIOUS MEASLES
WON'T BE PERFORMING
AS THEIR LEAD SINGER
HAS THE CHICKEN POX.
[ALL BOOING]
BUT, UH, SOME OF YOUR
VERY OWN SCHOOLMATES
HAVE VOLUNTEERED
TO FILL IN FOR THEM.
[ALL BOOING]
NOW, NOW, COME ON.
DON'T BE DISPARAGING, OK?
ALL RIGHT.
NOW REMEMBER,
DON'T LET ANY
OF THE BAND MEMBERS
GET TOO CLOSE,
OR THEY'LL PASS
RIGHT THROUGH YOU.
IT'S SO SWEET. IT'S LIKE
HE'S HER MOTHER.
WE COULD HAVE DONE THIS
WITHOUT HER.
SO PUT YOUR HANDS TOGETHER
FOR THE ZETTABYTES!
[CROWD BOOING]
Sam: UH...
1, 2, 3, 4!
[BAND PLAYS
NOTHING'S WRONG WITH ME]

[CHEERING]
MY NAME IS LORETTA MODERN,
AND WE ARE THE ZETTABYTES.
[CHEERING]
Loretta: THIS IS
SO FUN, ROSCOE.
CAN WE DO THIS
EVERY DAY?
WELL, LET'S FIRST SEE
IF YOU CAN PHOTOGRAPH.
IF YOU'RE JUST TUNING IN,
OUR GUEST TODAY IS DARYL FIBBS.
SO WHAT MADE THE NOTORIOUS
DE FIBB GIVE UP RAP
AND TAKE A JOB WITH
HARSHTONE RECORDS?
I--I DECIDED I WANTED
TO BE A STAR MAKER
INSTEAD OF A STAR.
THAT'S WHY
I'M SCOUTING NEW ACTS
IN BACK ROOMS WHERE
I'LL DISCOVER TALENT.
THAT'S SOMEBODY
WE SHOULD GET TO KNOW.
BUT TO GIVE UP
PERFORMING...
LORETTA?
WELL, I MEAN,
IT'S LIKE BOXING.
THE CHAMP...
Roscoe: HOW DO YOU
LIKE THE RAIN?
Loretta: I DON'T KNOW.
IT ONLY HAPPENS OUTSIDE.
I CAN'T GO OUTSIDE.
SO HOW
SHOULD I LOOK NOW?
WHAT?
FOR YOUR PICTURES.
OH, UH, RIGHT. UM...
LET'S SEE.
UH, FIRST,
UH, LOOK AT ME
LIKE
YOU'RE SURPRISED.
GREAT. ALL RIGHT.
NOW, UH, LOOK AT ME
LIKE YOU'RE ANGRY.
OK, NOW, UH,
LOOK AT ME LIKE
YOU'RE IN LOVE.
IS THIS RIGHT?
YEAH.
YEAH, IT'S--
IT'S PERFECT.
HMM.
Loretta:
THEY'RE ALL THE SAME.
IT'S LIKE
I'M NOT REALLY THERE.
YOU'RE LIKE LIGHTNING.
YOU KNOW, IT'S HARD
TO CATCH IN A PICTURE.
BUT IT'S STILL THERE,
LIKE YOU.
WHY AM I HERE?
YOU'RE HERE
'CAUSE THE ZETTABYTES
NEED A NEW LEAD SINGER.
DO YOU KNOW
WHY YOU'RE HERE?
UM...
MAYBE I'M HERE
TO BOTTLE PERFECTION.
WHAT I MEAN IS,
MAYBE I'M HERE
TO MAKE YOU.
ROSCOE, DUDE,
YOU GOTTA SET ME UP
WITH LORETTA.
MAX, DUDE,
LORETTA DOESN'T DATE.
SO? CONVINCE HER.
COME ON. HELP OU A FELLOW SKYGRAPH BRAT.
HEY...
TOO BAD ABOUT YOUR DAD,
BY THE WAY.
MY--MY DAD?
WHAT HAPPENED TO MY DAD?
BETWEEN YOU AND ME,
MY MOM'S BEEN TALKIN' ABOU SHUTTIN' DOWN HIS PROJECT.
NOT ENOUGH RESULTS.
WHAT? WHEN?
I DON'T KNOW. I--
I COULD TALK TO HER,
GET HIM OU OF THE PENALTY BOX.
THAT IS, IF YOU HELP ME.
HEY.
STUDYING HARD?
IT'S A NEW LYRIC.
I'M WRITING IT TO MATCH
OUR NEW IMAGE.
I'M SURE LORETTA
WILL LOVE IT.
SHE'LL LIKE
WHATEVER YOU LIKE.
YEAH.
UM...LOOK,
I WAS THINKING...
MAYBE WE COULD
GO OUT FOR DINNER
ON--ON SATURDAY.
I'D REALLY LIKE THAT,
ROSCOE.
GREAT! YEAH.
I FIGURE
WE CAN MAKE I A DOUBLE DATE.
WITH WHO?
[COUGHS]
MAX McALLISTER.
MAX?
WAIT A SECOND.
YOU CAN'T BE--
I MADE A DEAL
WITH HIM.
AND LORETTA CAN' BE THERE WITHOUT ME.
YOU CAN'T BE SERIOUS.
IT COULD HELP SAVE
MY FATHER'S JOB.
BESIDES, LORETTA NEEDS
SOCIAL EXPERIENCE.
SO DO YOU.
WHY DOES EVERYTHING
HAVE TO BE SUCH
A BATTLE WITH YOU?
I'M SORRY I CAN' BE AGREEABLE 24/7
LIKE LORETTA.
YEAH, SO AM I.
OH, I'M SOR--
I DIDN'T MEAN THAT.
YES, YOU DID.
SAM...
Max: SO I
CHECKED THE CREEP
INTO THE BOARDS,
AND I SCORED
THE WINNING GOAL.
WOW, WHAT A STORY.
ISN'T THAT A GREAT STORY,
LORETTA? SHE LOVES HOCKEY.
THE DUCKS ARE UP 4 TO 3
IN THE THIRD PERIOD.
Max: REALLY?
HOW'D YOU KNOW THAT?
SHE'S PSYCHIC.
NO WAY!
HA HA. SAM'S KIDDING.
IT'S--IT'S RIGHT HERE
ON MY--MY COMPUTER.
DUDE...DO YOU HAVE TO
TAKE THAT THING EVERYWHERE
YOU GO?
SO...LORETTA...
TELL ME A LITTLE
ABOUT YOURSELF.
WHERE YOU FROM?
SHE'S VISITING.
SHE'S AN EXCHANGE STUDENT.
WE'RE HOSTING HER.
WOW.
I GOTTA GET INTO
THE HOSTING BUSINESS.
SO, WHAT COUNTRY
ARE YOU FROM?
OH, WELL, SHE'S FROM...
ANTARCTICA.
Max: NO WAY!
MEAN WINTER TEMPERATURES
OF 74 DEGREES BELOW ZERO,
5.5 MILLION SQUARE MILES.
Max: AMAZING.
AND YOU DON'T EVEN HAVE
AN ACCENT.
Sam: SHE CAME HERE
TO ESCAPE 6 MONTHS
OF DARKNESS.
OF COURSE, NOT ALL OF US
CAN BE SO LUCKY.
YOU KNOW
WHAT YOU WANT?
OH, I DON'T EAT.
MEAT. MEAT.
SHE DOESN'T EAT MEAT.
VEGAN. COOL.
WE'LL HAVE
THE 1/2 POUND BURGER...
AND THE VEGGIE PLATE?
JUST FRIES FOR US.
YOU HAVE THE SMOOTHEST HANDS
I HAVE EVER SEEN.
OOH! DO THAT AGAIN!
[CELL PHONE RINGS]
HELLO?
YOU CHANGED MY
HOLOGRAPHIC PROTOCOLS,
DIDN'T YOU?!
DAD, THIS IS
A REALLY BAD TIME.
I'M ON A DATE.
I DON'T CARE
WHERE YOU ARE.
HERE.
DAD, JUST CALM DOWN, OK?
YOU DELIBERATELY
ALTERED MY PROGRAMS.
NO. I MADE I MORE EFFICIENT.
YOU KNOW, THE MOMENT I FIRS SAW YOU ON STAGE,
I THOUGHT WE HAD
A CONNECTION BETWEEN US.
I MEAN, REALLY DEEP DOWN.
TO TELL YOU THE TRUTH,
I REALLY DON'T GO THAT DEEP.
NEITHER DO I.
SEE, IT'S PERFECT.
I THINK I'M GONNA
BE SICK.
[LAUGHS]
MAX, CAN I JUST MEL IN YOUR ARMS?
WHY DON'T YOU?
YOU HAVE TO KISS ME FIRST.
WHOA! LOOK A THE DESSERTS
AT THIS PLACE!
LORETTA,
GET A GRIP.
TALK TO THE HAND.
UM...UH...
OH--OH, NO, MY KEYS.
MAX, WOULD YOU
GO GET THEM FOR ME?
YEAH. SURE.
HEY, WHAT ABOUT MY KISS?
I ASKED HIM FIRST.
[SEXY WHISTLE]
I GOTTA GO.
HURRY, ROSCOE!
Sam: HERE HE COMES.
[NERVOUS CHUCKLE]
WHERE DID LORETTA GO?
UH...GETTING SOME AIR.
SHE--SHE WAS FEELING
LIGHT-HEADED.
SOME OF US CALL THAT LOVE.
OOH.
WHAT'S SHE DOING
OVER THERE?
OH...JUST POPPING IN
ON SOME OLD FRIENDS.
WELL, THAT WAS
THE MOST UNUSUAL DATE
I'VE EVER BEEN ON.
[BOTH LAUGH]
YOU GOTTA ADMI IT WAS FUN.
UM, LOOK...
I, UH--I NEED YOU TO DO
ONE MORE THING FOR LORETTA.
CAN WE JUST ONCE
NOT TALK ABOUT LORETTA?
I NEED YOU TO KEEP HER
FOR A WHILE.
YOU'RE ASKING
THE WRONG PERSON.
I CAN'T EVEN
KEEP A HAMSTER ALIVE.
SHE'S NOT A PET.
SHE'S A PERSON.
SHE'S A PROGRAM.
LOOK, IF I KEEP HER,
MY DAD WILL FIND HER,
AND THEN YOU'LL LOSE
YOUR LEAD SINGER.
COME ON.
IT'LL BE GOOD FOR HER.
YOU CAN TEACH HER
HOW TO BE REAL.
HMM?
PLEASE?
AFTER YOU.
[GUITAR PLAYING]
THAT'S GREAT,
MS. CONNORS.
THANK YOU, ROSCOE.
I SEE WHERE SAMANTHA
GETS IT FROM.
WELL...I NEVER QUITE HAD
HER DETERMINATION. HA.
SO, UH,
IS SAM INSIDE?
YEAH. SHE'S STUDYING
WITH THAT NEW GIRL?
THE ANSWER IS 3 TIMES
THE SQUARE ROOT OF 2.
IT'S MY HOMEWORK.
I'VE GOT TO BE
THE ONE TO
GET IT RIGHT.
BUT YOU GOT IT WRONG.
THAT'S HOW YOU LEARN.
YOU GET IT WRONG
UNTIL YOU GET IT RIGHT.
THAT'S SUCH A WASTE
OF TIME.
THAT JUST GOES TO SHOW
THAT YOU DON'T KNOW
EVERYTHING.
YES, I DO.
OK, MAYBE YOU DO.
BUT YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND
ANY OF IT.
YOU COULD KNOW
WHAT A BABY IS...
BUT YOU'VE NEVER
BEEN ONE.
YOU CAN KNOW EVERY TYPE
OF BICYCLE,
BUT YOU'VE NEVER
FALLEN OFF ONE
AND SCRAPED YOUR KNEE.
YOU'VE NEVER HAD
TO TRY AND FAIL.
TRY AND FAIL UNTIL...
YOU GET SOMETHING RIGHT.
HEY, GIRLS.
HOW'S STUDYING GOING?
SHE'S MAD
BECAUSE I'M PERFECT.
[SCOFFS]
I DON'T EVEN KNOW
WHY I TALK TO HER.
SHE'S NOT EVEN REAL.
SHE'S JUS A TRICK OF LIGHT.
AND YOU'RE NOTHING BUT WATER
AND A FEW POUNDS OF CHEMICALS.
OOH.
MAYBE A FEW MORE POUNDS
THAN YOU REALLY NEED.
IT'S NOT FAIR!
I CAN'T EVEN SMACK HER!
HE SCREENS YOUR CALLS.
OK, I THINK WE'VE ALL
GOTTA CALM DOWN
JUST A LITTLE BIT.
YOU SCREEN MY CALLS?
WELL...DON'T THINK
ABOUT THAT RIGHT NOW.
SAM, WHY DON'T YOU
SHOW LORETTA
THE SONG YOU WROTE
FOR HER.
YOU WROTE A SONG FOR ME?
I WROTE I FOR THE BAND!
WITH YOU IN MIND.
COULD I HEAR IT?
FINE.
[PLAYING MEDIUM-TEMPO
ROCK MELODY]
HERE'S THE STORY
OF A GIRL
LIVIN' IN A LONELY WORLD
A HIDDEN NOTE,
A SECRET CRUSH
A LITTLE BOY
WHO TALKS TOO MUCH
WELL, I'M STANDING
IN A CROWD
AND WHEN YOU SMILE
I CHECK YOU OUT
BUT YOU DON'T EVEN

YOU'RE TOO BUSY
PLAYIN' GAMES
AND I WANT YOU TO KNOW
IF YOU LOSE YOUR WAY
I WON'T LET YOU GO
IF I CUT MY HAIR,
IF I CHANGE MY CLOTHES
WILL YOU NOTICE ME?
IF I BITE MY LIP,
IF I SAY HELLO
WILL YOU NOTICE ME?
WHAT'S IT GONNA TAKE
FOR YOU TO SEE
TO GET YOU TO NOTICE ME?
OH, DON'T GET ME WRONG
GET ME WRONG
YOU BETTER MAKE YOUR MOVE
BEFORE THE MOMENT'S GONE
TELL ME
IF I CUT MY HAIR
IF I CHANGE MY CLOTHES
WILL YOU NOTICE ME?
IF I BITE MY LIP,
IF I SAY HELLO
WILL YOU NOTICE ME?
I'LL GET YOU
TO NOTICE ME
[CHEERS, APPLAUSE]
[STAMMERING]
I'M VERY IMPRESSED.
OK, YOU GIRLS GOT A SLO ON AMATEUR NIGHT.
AMATEUR NIGHT?
TRUST ME ON THIS.
HARSHTONE RECORDS
IS SENDING A TALENT SCOUT.
DARYL FIBBS?
YOU DIDN'T HEAR IT FROM ME.
Cindy: WHOO! HA!
I CAN'T BELIEVE IT.
WE GET TO PERFORM
FOR DARYL FIBBS.
OH, MY GOD!
WE HAVE TO SPEND
EVERY FREE MOMEN REHEARSING.
UH, YOU SAW LORETTA
IN THERE.
SHE DOESN'T NEED REHEARSAL.
SHE MIGHT NOT,
BUT WE DO.
YEAH.
GUYS. SO...
MOXLEY'S HAVING YOU
CLOSE THE FIRST HALF.
[GIRLS LAUGH]
GOOD ONE, LORETTA.
WAIT A SECOND.
SHE'S NOT IN THERE.
YOU TOOK
THE DATA CELL
AND LEFT LORETTA?
I THOUGHT YOU HAD
PUT HER IN.
THAT'S HOW YOU
TAKE CARE OF HER?
LORETTA,
I AM SO SORRY.
THAT'S OK.
I'VE BEEN ENJOYING
THE RAIN.
I CAN'T BELIEVE
SAM LEFT YOU
OUT HERE.
I DON'T KNOW WHA I WOULD HAVE DONE
IF I LOST YOU.
I MEAN, IF THE BAND
LOST YOU.
[HONKS HORN]
YOU READY?
IT MUST BE WONDERFUL.
WHAT?
TO FEEL THE RAIN.
[DOORBELL RINGS]
ROSCOE'S OUT, HONEY.
YOU CAN WAIT FOR HIM
IF YOU LIKE.
UH, I JUST WANTED TO
DROP OFF THIS NEW DEMO.
SURE.
Voice: SAVE ME...PLEASE.
SAVE ME...PLEASE.
SAVE ME...PLEASE.
SAVE ME...PLEASE.
SAVE ME...PLEASE.
SAVE--AAH!
SO, THIS IS WHERE
YOU GOT YOUR VOICE,
HUH, LORETTA?
SOME GENE POOL
ROSCOE GAVE YOU.
HEY.
SAM.
SAM,
WHAT'S WRONG?
Moxley: MR. FIBBS.
I--I CAN'T TELL YOU
WHAT AN HONOR IT--
SPARE ME, MOXLEY.
YOU GAVE ME NO RESPEC WHEN I PERFORMED HERE.
I EXPECT THE SAME
LACK OF COURTESY NOW.
I'M MESSIN'
WITH YOU, MAN,
OH, YOU BROUGH THE MEDIA.
I DON'T LEAVE HOME
WITHOUT IT.
YEAH.
HEH HEH. HEY.
Girls:
HEY, IT'S FIBBS! FIBBS!
I GOT A GOOD EXCUSE
I'M ONLY 17 THINKIN'
THAT YOU BETTER LEAVE
I'M NOT NAIVE
I KNOW YOU DON'T BELIEVE
WHEN YOU SAY
YOU'RE JUST A--
MAN, DON'T EVEN TRY IT
NO, NO, NO, NO,
DON'T YOU UNDERSTAND?
DON'T EVEN TRY IT
SAY GOOD NIGHT,
SAY GOOD-BYE
DON'T EVEN TRY IT, NO
YOU BETTER KEEP AWAY
WITH YOUR HANDS
DON'T EVEN TRY IT...
HE'S HERE.
YOU GUYS,
DARYL FIBBS IS HERE.
HEY, DON'T FAIN UNTIL AFTER WE PERFORM.
I CAN'T BELIEVE
SAM ISN'T HERE YET.
LIGHTEN UP.
YOU'RE TOO HARD ON HER.
SHE'S GOT LORETTA.
WHAT IF I NEED
TO MAKE
SOME LAST-MINUTE
ADJUSTMENTS ON HER?
I CAN'T BELIEVE SHE'D BE
THIS IRRESPONSIBLE.
NOW YOU SOUND
LIKE YOUR FATHER.
Sam: OH, WE GOT STUCK
IN TRAFFIC.
AS LONG AS
YOU'RE HERE.
SERIOUSLY,
YOU HAD US
WORRIED.
THANKS, MOM.
BYE. GOOD LUCK,
HONEY.
HI.
HI.
HI.
BYE, SWEETIE.
Roscoe:
DO YOU HAVE LORETTA?
DIVA IN A DRUM.
LOOK, MY HANDS
ARE SHAKING.
I THINK I'M
GONNA HURL.
YEAH, BUT IT'S
A DEEP CLEANSING
HURL, RIGHT?
[LAUGHTER]
ARE WE THERE YET?
YOU'RE ON
IN A FEW MINUTES.
HOW DO I LOOK?
IS MY CONTRAS SET RIGHT?
YOU LOOK GREAT.
PERFECT.
COME ON, LET'S CHECK OU OUR COMPETITION.
DON'T EVEN TRY IT
I KNOW YOU
ALL TOO WELL
SAY GOOD NIGHT...
IT WAS THE PICTURE,
WASN'T IT?
WHEN WERE YOU
PLANNING ON
TELLING ME
THAT YOU USED ME
TO MAKE HER?!
I DIDN'T THINK
IT WAS IMPORTANT.
I GUESS I SHOULD
BE HAPPY FOR YOU.
YOU FINALLY
BOTTLED PERFECTION.
I MADE HER FOR YOU,
NOT FOR ME.
[SARCASTIC CHUCKLE]
IF YOU'RE NOT GONNA
BE HONEST WITH ME,
AT LEAST BE HONES WITH YOURSELF.
WHAT?!
I JUST WANT TO KNOW
WHAT PART OF ME
YOU USED
TO MAKE HER.
WHAT PART OF ME
DID YOU LIKE ENOUGH
TO KEEP?
[SIGHS]
I GAVE HER YOUR EARS.
[SIGHS] I WISH
YOU'D NEVER MADE HER.
WHAT PART OF NO
DON'T YOU UNDERSTAND?
DON'T EVEN TRY IT
[CHEERS, APPLAUSE]
OK, OK, OK!
NOW WE HAVE A REAL TREA FOR YOU NEXT,
AN ALL-GIRL BAND THAT I
PERSONALLY DISCOVERED.
AND NOW THE EARSPLITTER
PRESENTS...
LORETTA MODERN
AND THE ZETTABYTES!
[CHEERS, APPLAUSE]
[BAND STARTS PLAYING]
HERE'S THE STORY
OF A GIRL
LIVIN'
IN A LONELY WORLD
A HIDDEN NOTE,
A SECRET CRUSH
A LITTLE BOY
WHO TALKS TOO MUCH
WELL, I'M STANDING
IN THE CROWD
AND WHEN YOU SMILE
I CHECK YOU OUT
BUT YOU DON'T EVEN
KNOW MY NAME
YOU'RE TOO BUSY
PLAYING GAMES
AND I WANT YOU TO KNOW
IF YOU LOSE YOUR WAY
I WON'T LET YOU GO
IF I CUT MY HAIR
IF I CHANGE MY CLOTHES
WILL YOU NOTICE ME?
IF I BITE MY LIP,
IF I SAY HELLO
WILL YOU NOTICE ME?
WHAT'S IT GONNA TAKE
FOR YOU TO SEE
TO GET YOU
TO NOTICE ME?
I'M NOT LIKE THE REST
I JUST DON'T CARE
IF YOU'RE THE BEST
YOU SEE, IT'S
ALL THE SAME TO ME
YOU JUST BE
WHO YOU WANT TO BE
IT'S ALL THE SAME TO ME
OH, DON'T GET ME WRONG
YOU BETTER
MAKE YOUR MOVE
BEFORE THE MOMENT'S GONE
TELL ME
IF I CUT MY HAIR
IF I CHANGE MY CLOTHES
WILL YOU NOTICE ME?
IF I BITE MY LIP,
IF I SAY HELLO
WILL YOU NOTICE ME?
Roscoe: COME ON. COME ON!
Girl: WHAT'S GOING ON?
[CONFUSED MURMURS]
[BAND STOPS PLAYING]
[INDISTINCT COMPUTER VOICE]
WHAT WAS THAT?!
Girl: SHE'S NOT REAL.
Girl: SHE'S A HOLOGRAM.
A HOLOGRAPHIC ROCK STAR?
COM--COME ON!
COME ON!
HOLOGRAPHIC ROCK STAR.
HOW COOL IS THAT!
HAVE YOU EVER SEEN
ANYTHING LIKE IT?
THAT'S UNREAL.
[CHEERS, APPLAUSE]
All, chanting: LO-RE-TTA!
LO-RE-TTA! LO-RE-TTA.
LO-RE-TTA!
YEAH, PATCH ME THROUGH
TO WELDON GILES.
[CROWD CHEERING, CHANTING]
Man on phone: HELLO?
MR. GILES,
IT'S ME, DARYL.
YOU MUST HAVE FOUND SOMETHING
IF YOU'RE CALLING SO LATE.
ONLY HARSHTONE'S
NEXT MEDIA SENSATION.
LISTEN TO THIS.
All: LO-RE-TTA!
LO-RE-TTA...
GOOD WORK, FIBBS.
MAKE IT HAPPEN.
[CROWD CHEERING]
LORETTA,
THANK YOU SO MUCH
FOR BEING WITH US TODAY.
SO, TELL ME, WHERE DOES
A HOLOGRAM FIND
THOSE CUTTING-EDGE
FASHIONS?
I DOWNLOAD THEM.
DON'T YOU?
'CAUSE I KNOW
YOU KNOW I KNOW
THAT IF WE PLAN
ON WINNING
COME ON, COME ON
COME ON
COME ON, COME ON
GET REAL
WE WANT TO
MAKE IT APPEALING
I'LL BE WHATEVER
YOU'RE FEELING
ALLOW ME TO GET YOU
TO THE DEALING
GET UP, GET ON,
GET OVER IT
GET OVER ME
IT'S TIME TO GET REAL
EVERYBODY SAYS
IF WE DREAM BIGGER
THAN WE ARE...
IT'S UNNATURAL,
IT'S UNWHOLESOME--
SHE IS COMPLETELY
HARMLESS.
WHAT'S NEXT,
HOLOGRAPHIC
PETS?
I'VE GO A HOLOGRAPHIC PET.
I KNOW YOU KNOW
I KNOW
THIS TIME
THERE'S NO PRETENDING
COME ON, COME ON, COME ON,
COME ON, COME ON
WHAT ELSE CAN WE DO...
SO TELL US, MR. FIBBS,
HOW IS IT WORKING
WITH LORETTA?
IT'S AMAZING.
YOU'RE WITH HER
5 MINUTES,
YOU FORGE SHE'S NOT REAL.
WELL, THE BUZZ
FROM THE LIVE SHOWS
IS UNDENIABLE,
BUT WILL HER DEBUT ALBUM
LIVE UP TO THE HYPE?
WE'RE RECORDING IT RIGHT NOW.
IT'S GONNA BE HOT.
GET REAL
WE WAN TO MAKE IT APPEALING
GET REAL
I'LL BE WHATEVER
YOU'RE FEELING
OK, GIRLS, GIRLS, GIRLS.
WHAT NOW?!
CAN WE AT LEAST GE THROUGH THE SONG ONCE?
YOU WANT TO MAKE
A HARSHTONE CD?
THEN YOU HAVE TO
DO IT RIGHT.
YOUR HARMONIES
WERE FLAT.
WAS I OK?
Daryl:
YOU WERE BRILLIANT.
CINDY, YOU NEED
TO KEEP THE TEMPO
CONSISTENT.
WHAT TAKE ARE WE ON?
Engineer: 34.
IS IT TOO LATE
TO GET STUDIO MUSICIANS?
Engineer:
NEVER TOO LATE.
MR. FIBBS,
THE INTERCOM'S STILL ON.
CAN HE REPLACE US
WITH STUDIO MUSICIANS?
HE CAN DO
WHATEVER HE WANTS.
DARYL, YOU CAN' REPLACE THE GIRLS.
THEY'RE MY BAND.
ALL RIGHT, LORETTA,
WHATEVER YOU SAY.
Engineer:
METER'S STILL RUNNING.
Daryl: YEAH,
I OWN THE METER.
AT LEAST I WILL
WHEN THEIR FIRST ALBUM
GOES PLATINUM.
YEAH, UH, MR. FIBBS,
WE SHOULD BREAK
FOR THE DAY, ANYWAY.
I GOTTA WORK
ON LORETTA.
TRY AND INCREASE
HER RANGE OF MOTION.
Daryl: OK, WE'LL
PICK IT UP LATER.
THE NATIONAL BROADCAS IS ONLY A WEEK AWAY,
AND I WANT THE SINGLE
DONE BY THEN.
I'M WORKING
ON MY OWN SONG.
YOUR OWN SONG?
YOU'RE AMAZING,
YOU KNOW THAT?
TAKE A GOOD LOOK,
BECAUSE THAT...
IS THE FUTURE
OF THE MUSIC INDUSTRY.
A MONTH FROM NOW,
EVERY TEENAGER
IN AMERICA
IS GONNA WANT TO BE
JUST LIKE HER--
SMART, TALENTED...
HIGH RESOLUTION.
ALBUM TITLE.
[TYPING ON COMPUTER]
TAKE CARE OF MY GIRL, ROSCOE.
YOUR GIRL?
HEY, YOU GUYS
SOUNDED GREAT.
YOU'RE GONNA HAVE
A KILLER FIRST ALBUM.
HMM. YOU MEAN
LORETTA WILL.
YEAH.
LOOK, I'M SORRY
SHE'S GETTING
ALL THE ATTENTION.
ARE YOU?
I MEAN, THAT'S WHY
YOU MADE HER, RIGHT?
THE BAND NEEDED
AN IMAGE.
YOU SAY THAT LIKE
IT'S A BAD THING.
THINGS JUST AREN' TURNING OU THE WAY I WANTED,
ALL RIGHT?
YOU'VE STILL GO THAT EXTRA DATA CELL,
DON'T YOU?
WHY DON'T YOU TAKE LORETTA
FOR A WHILE? HUH?
THEN THEY COULD
DO A STORY ON YOU
AND HOW THE TWO OF YOU
ARE FRIENDS.
WE ARE?
YOU COULD TRY TO BE.
TELL YOU WHAT, ROSCOE,
IF SHE BECOMES
TOO MUCH FOR YOU,
E-MAIL HER TO ME.
DAD, WHAT ARE YOU DOING?
STUDYING
YOUR CREATION.
HOW DID YOU COMPENSATE
FOR THE AMBIENT ROOM LIGHT?
UH, VARIABLE
INTENSITY
SUB-ROUTINE.
DAD, PLEASE, YOU'RE
EMBARRASSING HER.
IT'S OK, ROSCOE.
I DON'T MIND.
HEY, DAD,
YOU NEED TO WARN HER
BEFORE YOU DO THAT.
I HAVE TO HAND I TO YOU, ROSCOE.
WHAT YOU HAVE DONE HERE
IS AMAZING.
OF COURSE,
A HOLOGRAPHIC ROCK STAR
ISN'T EXACTLY
WHAT I HAD IN MIND.
DAD, DON'T START.
BUT SHE'S
A GOOD BEGINNING.
NOW LET'S JUST MOVE
BEYOND IT.
WHY CAN'T YOU
JUST APPRECIATE
WHAT YOU'VE GO RIGHT IN FRONT OF YOU?
I MEAN, YOU SAW HER.
BUT DID YOU SEE WHO SHE IS?
WHO SHE'S BECOMING?
SHE CAN'T BECOME
ANYTHING. SH--
IT--IT'S A HOLOGRAM.
NO, SHE'S AN INDIVIDUAL.
SHE HAS THOUGHTS
AND FEELINGS,
JUST LIKE
YOU AND ME.
NO.
SHE'S A BLEND
OF LIGHT AND COLOR.
LIKE--
WELL, LIKE
AN ABSTRACT PAINTING.
IT'S VIBRANT,
IT'S BEAUTIFUL,
BUT IN THE END,
IT'S JUST SOMETHING
TO LOOK AT,
NOTHING MORE.
REALLY?
WELL, THAT NOTHING
SAVED YOU
YOUR FUNDING.
THANKS TO HER,
YOU'RE SKYGRAPH'S
FAVORITE EMPLOYEE.
THAT WASN'T HER.
THAT WAS YOU.
BY CREATING HER,
YOU MIGHT HAVE--
YOU MIGHT HAVE EVEN
SAVED MY JOB.
GLAD YOU NOTICED.
I'M GOING
FOR A WALK.
ROSCOE, I WROTE A SONG.
TELL ME IT'S BRILLIANT.
TELL ME IT'S PERFECT.
"I BELIEVE IN YESTERDAY,
DANIEL MY BROTHER,
HEY, NOW YOU'RE A ROCK STAR,
ONE WAY OR ANOTHER?"
ISN'T IT GREAT?
LORETTA, THESE ARE JUS LINES FROM OTHER SONGS.
YEAH, BUT I PUT THEM
ALL TOGETHER.
YOU WANT TO HEAR
THE MUSIC?
NO, I KNOW THE MUSIC.
LORETTA, YOU CAN'T JUS TAKE BITS AND PIECES
OF OTHER SONGS.
WHY NOT?
YOU MADE ME OUT OF
BITS AND PIECES OF
OTHER PEOPLE.
TH-THAT'S DIFFERENT.
HOW?
IT JUST IS. OK, LOOK,
I KNOW YOU CAN DO
BETTER THAN THIS.
MAYBE I'LL WRITE YOU
A NEW CREATIVE PLUG-IN.
NO! YOU ALWAYS
WANT TO CHANGE ME.
WHY AM I NEVER
GOOD ENOUGH FOR YOU?
THERE'S ALWAYS ROOM
FOR IMPROVEMENT.
YOU SAID I WAS PERFECT.
YEAH. HMPH.
WELL, EVEN PERFECTION
HAS ITS LIMITS.
I WANT TO GO
TO THE MALL.
HUH. YOU CAN'T.
THE MALL'S CLOSED.
NOT IN JAPAN.
WE CAN'T GO
TO JAPAN.
YOU CAN'T GO
BECAUSE YOU'RE
NOT A HOLOGRAM,
BUT I CAN UPLOAD
STRAIGHT TO TOKYO.
SO WHO'S LIMITED NOW?
DOWNLOADING FROM THE NE IS MUCH DIFFEREN THAN UPLOADING.
IF YOU UPLOAD,
THE NET WILL
TEAR YOU APART.
HOW WOULD YOU KNOW?
YOU KNOW WHAT?
I'M NOT GONNA HAVE
THIS ARGUMENT.
FINE. THEN JUS REPROGRAM ME
TO NOT ARGUE.
MAYBE I WILL.
THAT'S IT. I'M LEAVING.
Roscoe:
LORETTA, WAIT!
IF YOU STEP OU THAT DOOR, YOU'LL
BE GONE FOREVER.
IS THAT YOU WANT?
[BARKING]
IT'S NOT FAIR
YOU MADE ME LIKE THIS.
YOU SHOULD'VE
MADE ME REAL.
LOOK, FROM NOW ON
NO MORE TINKERING
WITH YOUR PROGRAMS.
ALL RIGHT?
YOU'RE ALREADY
EVERYTHING I WANTED
YOU TO BE.
WHAT ABOUT WHA I WANT TO BE?
HUH. UHH.
CIAO, ROSCOE.
[HORN HONKS]
[BRAKES SQUEAL]
Driver: HEY!
NO PEDESTRIAN TRAFFIC!
GET YOUR BUT OUT OF THE INFO PIPE!
CAN YOU HELP ME?
I'M SORRY. MY ENGINE'S
ALREADY ON A SEARCH.
PLEASE.
ALL RIGHT, ALL RIGHT,
GET IN.
ALL RIGHT.
SO WHAT ARE
YOU LOOKING FOR?
I DON'T KNOW. A WAY OUT?
A WAY OUT.
THAT'S 4,335
MATCHES.
NO WAY OUT,
WAY OUT WEST,
WAY OUT ON A LIMB.
HA HA HA!
OH!
[CIRCUS MUSIC PLAYING]
HEY, ARE YOU LOOKING
TO REFINANCE?
WE'VE GOT THE LOWES MORTGAGE RATES!
HUH, HUH?
WHAT DO YOU SAY?
GET LOST!
[CIRCUS MUSIC WARPS OUT]
I HATE POP-UP ADS.
POP! POP! POP!
I HATE 'EM,
I HATE 'EM.
OK, HOLD ON.
WHAT'S THAT OVER THERE?
THAT? A SERVER.
PRETTY BIG ONE
BY THE LOOK OF IT.
HEY, WHAT ARE
YOU DOING?
HEY, YOU DON' WANT TO GO THERE!
E-MAIL.
I CAN ATTACH MYSELF
TO AN E-MAIL.
I JUST NEED TO FIND
THE RIGHT ONE.
EXCUSE ME. IS THIS
SORTED ALPHABETICALLY
OR BY DOMAIN?
VIRUS ALERT,
VIRUS ALERT!
WHAT?
[ALARM]
[BARKING]
OH!
OH.
HELLO?
CAN ANYONE HELP ME?
I'M LOST.
NAME?
LORETTA MODERN.
I NEED TO FIND--
DO YOU HAVE
AN E-MAIL ADDRESS?
YES.
WE CANNOT BE HELD
RESPONSIBLE
FOR ANY ACCIDENTAL
DELETIONS,
POWER SURGES,
OR DATA CORRUPTIONS.
MM-HMM.
[BUZZER]
YEOW! AAH!
Computer: YOU HAVE
A NEW MESSAGE.
Loretta:
SAMANTHA, HELP ME!
WHAT?
IT'S ME--LORETTA!
UHH! ROSCOE E-MAILED
YOU TO ME?
I WAS ONLY KIDDING.
QUICK, PLUG IN
MY DATA CELL.
UHH. OH, FINE.
IF ROSCOE WANTS TO
PLAY GAMES,
I CAN PLAY GAMES, TOO.
[CELL CLICKS]
THERE YOU ARE, LORETTA.
SAFE AND SOUND.
AND YOU CAN STAY THERE
TILL THE NEXT ICE AGE
FOR ALL I CARE.
[TIRES SQUEAL]
WHERE'S SAMANTHA?
SHE'S INSIDE. WHOA,
SLOW DOWN, ROSCOE.
LORETTA'S GONE.
GONE? WHAT DO
YOU MEAN GONE?
WE HAD A FIGHT.
SHE WENT INTO THE NET.
WHAT DID YOU TELL HER?
"MY WAY OR THE INFORMATION
SUPERHIGHWAY?"
I DON'T THINK
YOU GET IT.
THE INTERNET'S LIKE
A TORNADO FOR HER.
SHE COULD BE SHREDDED
BETWEEN A THOUSAND
DIFFERENT SERVERS.
I'M SURE SHE CAN
TAKE CARE OF HERSELF.
I WAS UP ALL NIGH TRYING TO TRACE HER.
WHAT'S THE BAND
GONNA DO
WITHOUT HER?
IT'S NOT ABOUT THE BAND.
IT'S ABOUT YOU.
WHAT?
YOU'RE IN LOVE WITH HER.
[SCOFFS]
DON'T BE RIDICULOUS.
OF COURSE YOU ARE.
YOU DESIGNED HER TO BE
YOUR PERFECT GIRL.
HOW COULD YOU HELP
BUT FALL IN LOVE WITH HER?
SHE CAN SING,
SHE CAN DANCE,
SHE'S FUNNY
AND BEAUTIFUL.
BUT YOU KNOW WHAT,
ROSCOE?
SHE'S NOT REAL.
WHAT IS REAL, ANYWAY?
ME. I'M REAL.
AND I'M RIGHT HERE.
I'VE ALWAYS BEEN
RIGHT HERE.
SAM, I--
[FRUSTRATED SIGH]
I'VE GOT HER.
WHAT?
LORETTA. SHE FOUND
HER WAY TO MY COMPUTER.
WELL, THEN SHE'S OK?
SHE'S FINE.
OH!
I'LL LEAVE
YOU TWO ALONE.
THANK YOU.
YOU, UH, REMEMBER
THE LAST THING
SUSAN SAID TO YOU?
WHAT?
SUSAN.
YOUR LAST GIRLFRIEND.
I HAVEN'T THOUGH ABOUT HER IN AGES.
SHE SAID, "I HOPE
YOU LIKE EATING ALONE."
THEN SHE SLAMMED
THE DOOR.
SHE WAS VERY GOOD
AT SLAMMING DOORS.
HEH! SO, UH...
YOU LIKE EATING ALONE?
I'M NOT ALONE.
I'VE GOT YOU.
MY BUSINESS PARTNER.
HEH!
MOM SLAMMED DOORS, TOO?
WHAT, ARE YOU
WRITING A PAPER
ON MY FAILED
RELATIONSHIPS?
NO, UH--THANKS.
I'M JUST WONDERING
WHY YOU NEVER GO MARRIED AGAIN.
I GUESS I WAS--
LOOKING
FOR SOMETHING THAT I
NEVER QUITE FOUND.
PERFECTION?
YOU KNOW, I ALWAYS
BELIEVED IN
THE PERFECT MATCH,
THAT THERE WAS
SOMEONE OUT THERE
WHO'D BE EXACTLY
WHAT I NEEDED
AND WE WOULD SORT OF
COMPLETE EACH OTHER.
BUT YOU NEVER FOUND HER.
WELL, PERFECTION'S
A FUNNY THING.
I MEAN, LOOK
HOW PERFECT THIS IS.
THE WAY THE CRYSTAL
CAPTURES THE LIGHT,
REFRACTS I INTO BEAUTIFUL PATTERNS.
SILICON'S AMAZING,
ISN'T IT?
YOU CAN MOLD IT INTO
GLASS OR COMPUTER CHIPS,
BUT YOU KNOW WHAT?
IT'S NOT ALIVE.
AND THE MORE
YOU TRY TO FIND
THAT KIND OF PERFECTION
IN PEOPLE,
THE MORE MEALS...
YOU WILL EAT ALONE.
[SWEEPING ROMANTIC
MUSIC PLAYING]
Roscoe:
IT'S AMAZING.
THE INTERNE DIDN'T DAMAGE
YOUR PATTERN AT ALL.
ROSCOE...
WHAT'S IT LIKE TO FEEL?
WHAT'S IT LIKE TO TOUCH?
I'M NOT REALLY SURE
IT'S SOMETHING
YOU CAN EXPLAIN.
TRY?
OK.
UH, ALL RIGHT.
CLOSE YOUR EYES.
NOW...IMAGINE
A DANCE FLOOR.
YOU AND YOUR
PARTNER ARE DANCING
TO THE BEAT.
HIP-HOP OR ROCK?
OH, IT DOESN'T MATTER,
BECAUSE SUDDENLY
IT CHANGES.
IT SLOWS DOWN
TO A BALLAD.
OK.
HE TOUCHES
YOUR HAIR.
IT FEELS LIKE...
LIKE A VIOLIN
GENTLY PLAYING.
YOU TOUCH HIS CHEEK.
IT FEELS LIKE...
LIKE A FLUTE
HOLDING A SINGLE
QUAVERING NOTE
HIGH ABOVE THE REST.
YOU PUT YOUR ARMS
AROUND EACH OTHER
AND BEGIN TO DANCE.
THE EMBRACE FEELS
LIKE A CELLO
HARMONIZING
WITH THE VIOLIN.
OK.
NOW OPEN YOUR EYES.
THERE. THERE.
YOU FEEL THAT?
NO.
I CAN'T FEEL ANYTHING.
THAT'S OK.
ME, NEITHER.
NOTHING AT ALL.
GUESS YOU AND I
NEVER WILL.
YOU'RE SO RESPONSIBLE
I TAKE CONTROL
AND THEN I
MAKE MY MIND UP
THAT I WON'T LET GO NOW
KEEP MY DISTANCE
I GOT STRONG RESISTANCE
I CAN DEFEND MYSELF
AGAINST ALL THE UNKNOWNS
REALLY THOUGH THAT I WOULD MAKE IT
MAN, I THOUGH THAT I WOULD MAKE IT
AND THEN ONE DAY
AND THEN ONE DAY
MY WORLD FELL APART
ALL MY PROMISES
WERE BROKEN
AND THEN ONE DAY
AND THEN ONE DAY
YOU INVADED MY HEART...
OK. THERE'S NO NEED
TO BE NERVOUS.
I'M FINE.
I MEAN, JUST BECAUSE
HE'S PRESIDEN OF THE RECORD COMPANY
AND HE'S MEETING, WELL,
RIGHT NOW WITH MY BOSS,
THAT'S NO REASON
TO BE INTIMIDATED.
I'M NOT.
GOOD.
I'VE GOTTA GO
TO THE BATHROOM.
AGAIN?
YEAH.
HEH!
THAT LOOKS LIKE DARYL.
Roscoe: IT IS. BACK WHEN
HE WAS RAPPER DE FIBB.
HE LOOKS SO MEAN.
EH, IT'S ALL IMAGE.
AH, THAT WAS MY DEBUT ALBUM.
WENT DOUBLE PLATINUM.
BARELY MADE A PENNY,
THOUGH.
HARSHTONE RECORDS
GOT ALL THE MONEY.
THAT'S NOT RIGHT.
MAYBE NOT. BUT EVERY
PERFORMER HAS A CHOICE.
WELDON GILES
OFFERED ME A CONTRACT.
IT WAS MY CHOICE
TO SIGN IT.
I'M GLAD I DON' HAVE TO WORRY ABOU THINGS LIKE MONEY.
OR MEETINGS.
MR. GILES WOULD PREFER
THAT LORETTA WASN' IN OUR DISCUSSION.
Giles:
YOU AND YOUR SON
HAVE REVOLUTIONIZED
THE MUSIC INDUSTRY.
YOU'VE GIVEN I NEW LIFE.
LORETTA MODERN'S
ON HER WAY TO BEING
A HOUSEHOLD NAME.
SKYGRAPH'S ENTERING
INTO A PARTNERSHIP
WITH HARSHTONE, XANDER.
WITH YOU SPEARHEADING
THE NEW DIVISION.
HEH! I--I DON'T KNOW
WHAT TO SAY.
WE WILL CORNER THE MARKE ON HOLOGRAPHIC PERFORMERS.
YOU DON'T HAVE TO
PAY 'EM, YOU DON' HAVE TO FEED 'EM,
AND WHEN
THEY'RE NOT ON STAGE,
YOU CAN PUT 'EM AWAY.
THAT'S THE KIND OF
PERFORMER I LIKE.
HOW ARE
THE HOLOGRAMS GONNA
FEEL ABOUT THAT?
UH...
[ALL CHUCKLING]
FUNNY KID.
ROSCOE, I'M GIVING
YOU AND YOUR FATHER
FREE CREATIVE REIN
TO DEVELOP NEW HOLOGRAPHIC
PERSONALITIES.
IN THE MEANTIME,
WE'LL EXPLOI THE ONE WE'VE GOT.
WHAT DO YOU MEAN
THE ONE YOU'VE GOT?
WE PURCHASED LORETTA
FROM SKYGRAPH.
NO. THEY CAN' JUST BUY HER.
WELL, THEY PURCHASE
COMPUTER PROGRAMS
ALL THE TIME.
YEAH, IT LOOKS LIKE
THEY BOUGHT YOU, TOO.
ROSCOE, I KNOW
LORETTA MIGHT SEEM
LIKE AN INDIVIDUAL,
BUT SHE'S NOT.
THEN WHAT IS SHE?
PROPERTY. AND NOW
SHE'S MY PROPERTY,
PLAIN AND SIMPLE.
ROSCOE, LET'S
JUST STEP OUTSIDE
AND TALK CALMLY
ABOUT THIS.
YEAH, I KNOW. LIKE
BUSINESS PARTNERS.
BUT YOU KNOW WHAT?
I'M NOT YOUR
BUSINESS PARTNER.
I'M YOUR SON.
AHEM. WE HAVE
THE ABILITY
TO CREATE LORETTAS
OF EVERY ETHNICITY--
ASIAN, AFRICAN-AMERICAN,
HISPANIC.
Giles:
IT'S BRILLIANT...
NO.
WE'LL MOLD LORETTA
INTO WHATEVER
WE WANT HER TO BE.
ISN'T THAT RIGHT,
XANDER?
XANDER?
Y-YES.
YES, WE CAN DO
ALL OF THAT.
BUT JUST BECAUSE
WE CAN DOESN'T MEAN
THAT WE SHOULD.
I'M SORRY, BUT I'M
WITH MY SON ON THIS.
WHETHER LORETTA
IS A PERSON
OR A PROGRAM,
SHE DESERVES
TO BE TREATED
WITH DIGNITY.
FINE.
I'LL SET UP A TASK FORCE
ON HOLOGRAM ETHICS.
DARYL, COULD YOU PLEASE
TAKE THE DATA CELL?
NOW.
I'M SORRY, ROSCOE.
IT'S NOT FAIR.
I NEED SECURITY IN HERE.
XANDER, TALK
TO YOUR SON.
COME ON!
YOU KNOW, FOR ONCE
THAT'S EXACTLY WHA I INTEND TO DO.
HOW COULD YOU
LET HIM DO THIS?
YOU SAID EVERY PERFORMER
HAS A CHOICE.
HOW ABOUT LORETTA?
WHERE'S HER CHOICE?
ALL RIGHT, SIR,
LET'S GO.
I WANT THA UNDER LOCK AND KEY.
WE WON'T LET THEM
GET AWAY WITH IT.
YOU CREATED LORETTA.
WE WON'T LET THEM
DO THIS TO YOU
OR TO HER.
WHAT IS IT?
NOTHING.
HEY, DAD,
IF I WERE TO TELL YOU
HOW PROUD I WAS
TO BE YOUR SON,
WOULD YOU GE ALL MUSHY ON ME?
WHO ME? NO.
GOOD, GOOD.
'CAUSE, UH,
I AM PROUD.
DAD!
Xander: WHOA! I'M OK,
I'M OK! I'M DONE.
[DATA CELL POWERS UP]
WHERE AM I? ROSCOE?
YOU HAVE A DECISION
TO MAKE, LORETTA.
ROSCOE CAN' MAKE IT FOR YOU,
NEITHER CAN I.
ON THE ONE HAND,
YOU CAN STAY HERE.
IF YOU DO, HARSHTONE
WILL OWN YOU.
YOU'LL PERFORM
WHEN THEY TELL YOU.
ALL I WANT TO DO
IS PERFORM.
THEN MAYBE THIS IS
WHERE YOU BELONG.
BUT THEN ON
THE OTHER HAND.
YOUR HANDHELD.
WITH WIRELESS WEB.
I UPLOADED ONCE.
THE CHOICE IS YOURS.
Giles: FIBBS,
ARE YOU IN THERE?
I HOPE YOU'RE TAKING
GOOD CARE OF MY GIRL.
Daryl, voice-over:
"DEAR MR. GILES,
"AFTER CAREFUL
CONSIDERATION,
"I'VE DECIDED
TO FREE MYSELF
"FROM YOU
AND HARSHTONE RECORDS.
"I BELIEVE OUR FRIEND
LORETTA MODERN
HAS CHOSEN TO DO THE SAME."
SINCERELY, DARYL J. FIBBS."
HEH! HA HA!
[BRAKES SQUEAL]
YOU AGAIN?
MM-HMM.
WHERE TO THIS TIME?
ANYWHERE BUT HERE.
4,200,708 MATCHES.
HA HA HA!
ROSCOE--OW!
ROSCOE!
DO YOU HAVE ANY IDEA
WHAT HE JUST DID?
YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND.
OH, I UNDERSTAND
JUST FINE.
HE'S A LYING,
CHEATING,
SELF-SERVING,
UNDERHANDED ARROGAN BALL OF SLIME!
ARE YOU DONE?
NO, I'M NOT DONE.
OK. NOW I'M DONE.
SO AM I. I RESIGNED
FROM HARSHTONE.
WHAT?
I DIDN'T LIKE THE AIR
OF OPPRESSION.
TIME I STARTED MY OWN
RECORDING COMPANY.
I MADE A MISTAKE.
I'M SORRY.
LORETTA'S GONE, TOO.
SHE ESCAPED INTO THE NET.
YOU LET HER
INTO THE NET?
HEY, IT WAS EITHER THA OR LET WELDON GILES GE HIS CLUTCHES INTO HER.
WHAT ABOU THE CONCERT?
OH, THERE ISN' GOING TO BE A CONCERT.
THE ZETTABYTES
ARE HISTORY.
Rachel: COME ON.
COULD YOU SPARE US
THE GLOOM AND DOOM?
Roscoe: SAM?
GUYS,
I HAVE AN IDEA.
[ROCK MUSIC PLAYING]
PEOPLE SAY YOU GOTTA BE
FAKE TO MAKE IT TO THE TOP
TO GET ON THE TOP
YOU'RE NEVER GONNA HAVE
WHAT IT TAKES
SO YOU MIGH AS WELL STOP
BUT WE'RE NOT
BECAUSE
I KNOW YOU KNOW I KNOW
THIS TIME
THERE'S NO PRETENDING
SO COME ON, COME ON,
COME ON, COME ON, COME ON
GET REAL
OOH AHH, I REALLY
FEEL THE FEELING
GET REAL
HOPEFULLY WE'LL NEVER
HIT THE CEILING
GET REAL
HELP ME GET ANSWERS
TO THE MEANING
GET UP, GET ON,
GET OVER IT
GET OUT OF OUR WAY
IT'S TIME TO GET REAL
GET REAL
OOH AHH, I REALLY

GET REAL
HOPEFULLY WE'LL NEVER
HIT THE CEILING

[MUSIC DISTORTS]
EXCUSE ME.
LET ME THROUGH!
IS SHE OK?
SAMANTHA!
[THUNDER]
[MONITOR BEEPING]
[COMPUTER BEEPS]
OH, IT'S JUS AN E-MAIL.
YOU DON'T THINK...
OOH! THAT WAS FUN!
WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN?
IN JAPAN.
CLUB HOPPING!
NO, DON'T DANCE.
NOT HERE.
WHERE IS HERE,
ANYWAY?
I DON'T UNDERSTAND.
WHAT HAPPENED?
SHE TRIED TO BE YOU.
THAT'S WHAT HAPPENED.
WHEN YOU DIDN' SHOW UP TO THE CONCER SHE TRIED TO TAKE
YOUR PLACE.
WELL, SOMEONE
SHOULD BE FIXING HER,
RUNNING DIAGNOSTICS.
SHE FELL
AND HIT HER HEAD.
IT'S NOT THAT EASY.
ROSCOE, YOU FIX HER.
I CAN'T.
ALL WE CAN DO
IS WAIT.
COME ON. WE'LL WAI WITH THE OTHERS.
NO. I WANT TO
STAY HERE.
LORETTA.
THIS MACHINE.
WHAT IS IT?
WHAT DOES IT DO?
E.E.G. IT MEASURES
BRAIN ACTIVITY.
THOSE WIRES,
ARE THEY CONNECTED
TO HER BRAIN?
SORT OF.
LORETTA, NO.
IT'S NOT A COMPUTER.
IF YOU GO IN THERE,
YOU CAN'T COME OUT.
LORETTA, NO!
SAMANTHA? WHERE ARE YOU?
SAMANTHA?
SAMANTHA?
SAMANTHA,
ARE YOU ALL RIGHT?
IT'S BROKEN.
YOUR HARDWARE NEEDS
TO BE REWIRED.
THAT'S ALL.
THERE. TRY IT NOW.
LORETTA?
WHAT ARE YOU
DOING HERE?
I'M HERE TO FIX YOU.
PLAY SOMETHING.
[PLAYS GUITAR]
HMM!
THAT'S SO BEAUTIFUL.
I WISH I COULD LEARN
TO PLAY SOMETHING
LIKE THAT.
ROSCOE COULD
PROGRAM YOU.
IT'S NOT THE SAME
AS LEARNING.
YOU GET TO MAKE
MISTAKES.
YOU GET TO SEE YOURSELF
GET BETTER LITTLE
BY LITTLE,
SO WHEN YOU FINALLY
GET THERE IT ACTUALLY
MEANS SOMETHING.
ALL THIS TIME I'VE BEEN
JEALOUS OF YOU
BECAUSE IT ALL CAME
SO EASY TO YOU.
HEH! SINGING, DANCING,
PERFECT PERSONALITY--
PERFECT! UGH!
I HATE THAT WORD.
IF I'M SO PERFECT,
WHY DO I FEEL SO LIMITED?
I MEAN, LOOK AT THIS PLACE
YOU'VE CREATED.
YOU'RE SO LUCKY.
SAMANTHA, YOU GE TO BE THE DREAMER,
BUT ALL I'LL EVER BE
IS THE DREAM.
I NEVER THOUGH OF IT THAT WAY.
YOU'RE LOSING
YOUR PATTERN.
SO ARE YOU.
IT LOOKS LIKE THERE'S
ONLY ENOUGH ROOM
FOR ONE OF US IN HERE.
SHE'S WAKING UP.
SAMANTHA?
SAMANTHA HONEY?
Roscoe:
SAM, ARE YOU OK?
HI, ROSCOE.
LORETTA?
HEH! EVERYTHING'S
SO DIFFERENT.
EVERYBODY FEELS
DIFFERENT.
I DON'T UNDERSTAND.
IF THIS IS LORETTA,
WHERE'S SAMANTHA?
THERE WAS ONLY ROOM
FOR ONE OF US AT A TIME.
NOW IT'S MY TURN TO FEEL.
WHAT ARE YOU SAYING?
OH!
WHOA!
HONEY?
MY PATTERN'S WEAK.
YOU'RE JUST NO USED TO THE WEIGHT.
WHAT DO YOU MEAN
IT'S YOUR TURN
TO FEEL?
IT'S ONLY FOR A WHILE.
LOOK AT THE RAIN, ROSCOE.
AM I EVERYTHING
YOU WANTED ME TO BE?
IT DOESN'T MATTER.
ALL THAT MATTERS IS
WHAT YOU WANT TO BE.
WHEN'S SAMANTHA
COMING BACK?
WHY WOULD YOU WAN SAMANTHA, ANYWAY?
SHE'S NOT LIKE ME.
SHE'S NOT PERFECT.
SHE DOESN' HAVE TO BE.
ARE YOU SAYING
YOU LOVE HER BECAUSE
OF HER IMPERFECTIONS?
YES.
BECAUSE OF
EVERYTHING SHE IS.
AND BECAUSE OF
EVERYTHING SHE'S NOT.
YEAH.
SO...YOU'LL LET HER
COME BACK?
HEH! OF COURSE I WILL.
WHAT KIND OF HOLOGRAM
DO YOU THINK I AM? HEH!
BUT FIRST...THE RAIN.
YOU REALLY WANT TO
DO THIS?
MORE THAN ANYTHING
IN THE WORLD.
UNH!
SAMANTHA! SAM!
SAMANTHA.
SAMANTHA.
LORETTA!
WHERE'S LORETTA?
SHE'S GONE.
WHERE?
I DON'T KNOW.
OH, HOO-OO
I DON'T UNDERSTAND
THIS SHOULD BE SO EASY
TO JUST REACH OU MY HAND
AND KNOW THE WORLD
IS REAL
BUT NOTHING'S
AS IT SEEMS
NO, I CAN
TELL YOU FREELY
TOUCHING'S NOT THE ONLY
WAY TO FEEL
WHEN THE RAIN FALLS
IT'S LIKE HEAVEN'S
CRYING
AND THE NAME'S ALL
THE DIFFERENCE
THAT THERE IS
'CAUSE TEARS ARE
THE SAME
WHEN THEY ARE TRYING
TO GROW SOMETHING GOOD ES
OUT OF ALL THE PAIN, HEY
THERE'S NO DIFFERENCE
BETWEEN THE TEARDROPS
AND THE RAIN
HAA, HOO-OO
WHOO-OO-OO-OO!
BRAVO!
NOW THAT'S WHA I'M TALKING ABOUT.
Roscoe:
HEY, IT WAS AWESOME.
YOU WERE BORN
TO SING BALLADS.
I WAS KIND OF FLA ON THE SECOND VERSE.
HEY, WHAT DO YOU WANT--
PERFECTION?
YOU SOUND GREA JUST THE WAY YOU ARE.
HEH.
WELL,
RACHEL'S HARMONIES
HELPED ME OUT.
HARMONY? I WASN' SINGING HARMONY.
I THOUGH IT WAS CINDY.
HEY, I DON'T SING.
I JUST PLAY DRUMS.
WELL, THEN WHO'S--
WHAT IS IT?
I THINK THE ZETTABYTES
HAVE A GUARDIAN ANGEL.
COME ON.
YOU MAY FIND ME
JUST A LITTLE STRANGE
I LIKE DANCING BAREFOO IN THE POURING RAIN
MY MIND IS RACING
AT THE SPEED OF LIGHT
I'LL DANCE AROUND YOU
LIKE A SATELLITE
I'M RECKLESS
YOU'RE SPEECHLESS
SCREAM, SHOUT,
I LOVE IT LOUD
I FEEL THE NEED TO STAND
OUT IN THE CROWD
NOTHING'S WRONG WITH ME
NOTHING'S WRONG
WITH ME
