The central artwork of the piece clearly takes inspiration from Munch's *The Scream* (1893). The contrast between human and robot is very clever, colour vs greyscale on canvas. Kay's expression and intonation barely changes, only a cock of the head and a swirling light at the temple shows non-human activity. It's really creepy when the artist forces a kiss upon 'her', true property on which to play out his darkest fantasies - with a delete option, however incomplete. Both police investigating the disappearance are no-nonsense and direct, being almost as emotionless as the android in instant characterisation. I like the interesting premise and useful tech but wish the ending was a little clearer. I've watched it 3 times and still unsure of who survives or who is responsible for what. I think ambiguity is the point. The holowatch is amazing. I want one.
