2093. Life on earth is characterized by groundbreaking new technologies, but also severe environmental destruction. Mundane tasks have been outsourced to androids and humans work only in highly intellectual or creative jobs. Natalie, a woman in her thirties, is struggling with her marriage to Dean and being a good mother to her son, Mark. Despite her family's wealth and resources, her medical condition is barely responding to treatment. Fortunately, she has L-35, a humanoid robot with advanced general artificial intelligence, to help her with her daily tasks. However, after a malfunction, L-35 begins to neglect his duties, resulting in Mark being hospitalized. In the aftermath, former friends and lovers become suspects and enemies. Natalie's sister, Beatrice, and her husband, Lysander, try to shed light onto the situation. However, Lysander has his own skeletons in the closet and he does not want to reveal his secrets so lightly. Working for Youngman, the leading company in general artificial intelligence, he finds himself confronted not only with his ambivalent feelings for Natalie but also doubts about the integrity of his company's business practices. Things escalate as a murder happens after a family gathering. No fingerprints are found and everyone involved in the party finds themselves confronted with their relationship to the dead person. Why does everyone seem to be hiding something? Who is the murderer? Investigations go slowly but the culprit must be found.
