In a secluded lab nestled in the Argentinian mountains, an inventor named Victor creates Cynthia, an android, to save his son's life. When Cynthia meets Victor's son, Carlos, a powerful bond is formed that feels part rom-com, part sci-fi thriller in the vein of Frankenstein and Edward Scissorhands. What will become of Victor's son, Carlos, and will Cynthia be able to free herself from the psychological imprisonment of her creator?

This episode features the song “Colder” performed by Vuyo Sotashe.
