In a television studio in the near future, Chandler Tate makes a living by directing a never-ending soap opera using actoids–robots programmed to act. Adam, the young nephew of the producer and an aspiring writer who worships the director (once a great movie director and now a broken-down has-been), is on the set and starts chatting with Jacie Tripplethree, the actoid playing the nurse. He finds, to his surprise, that not only can she carry on a conversation but, due to what she calls a fault in her programming, she has a creative imagination. When Adam falls in love with Jacie everything is turned upside down as she grows more human and the line between actoid and human diminishes.
