You can have it all.

TOLAN:

Thanks for your permission.

HENDERSON:
Getting around,

you're gonna need this,

they're all throughout

the house.

I mean, everything that's

installed just allows you

to live a more normal life.

Oh, these robotic arms

are fully capable

of preparing meals for you.

Let's say you wanted

a protein shake,

you would just say,

"Protein shake."

Your mother also has voice

control authority

over the arms.

Would you like to do

the honors, ma'am?

PAMELA:

Heh. Sure.

Protein shake.

- [ARM WHIRRING]

- PAMELA:
Oh, my Lord. Ha, ha.

PAMELA:

Oh, heh...

HENDERSON:

There you go.

I think we'll be fine

from here.

- Okay.

- I'll walk you out.

Oh, thank you.

[DOOR CLOSES]

KARA:
Charging now complete.

KARA:

Are you there, Grey?

Would you like something?

May I ask if Asha

will be joining us

for dinner?

GREY:
You know,

you don't have to stay here

day and night, Mom.

You know, these machines

they installed

pretty much do

everything for me.

I know.

[GREY COUGHING]

Now, it's okay.

It's okay.

That's it. That's it. That's it.

Hi, Pam.

Hi, Grey.

[PEOPLE CHATTERING]

All right. This is me.

Here. You can have a seat here.

Thanks.

You know, I'm from New Crown,

Grey, like you.

Went to Hellier High.

So what do you have?

Okay.

I know you were anxious

to come down here

and see how

we're getting things done,

and I think that's great.

I'm a face-to-face

person myself.
