Well, yeah.

And totally off limits.

I mean, his office is locked up

like a bank vault.

We don't need

to get inside.

We could just surf in

on bits of data.

So you want to hack

into my dad's secure network

and build me

some high-def boyfriend?

That's insane.

I know, but it's better

than letting Nevaeh win.

You better sleep over.

Let me text my mom.

Okay, I can.

Okay, but we cannot get caught.

My dad is super secretive

about his work.

What's the big deal?

It's a video-game company,

not the Department of Defense.

Welcome to my humble lab,

General.

All right, doctor, time to see what

Uncle Sam's been paying you for.

Oh, just follow me.

You can take the elevator.

And you can... Okay.

Gentlemen, I give you the

future birthplace of the X-17.

The world's first

covert robotic operative.

It's an impressive

achievement...

in theory.

Are you prepared to move

to the fabrication stage?

You get the go-ahead

from the President,

and I'll make history.

Consider it done.

Thank you, sir.

Jenks!

We did it, guys!

Ugh, your dad's network has like

20 layers of encryptions.

Even our microwave

is password protected.

Door secure.

We can't quit.

With this software,

Albert could be totally virtual.

He could text, call,

and video chat,

all on his own.

He'll be better than 3D.

He'll be 3D-licious.

Mmm.

We're in!

Welcome to

Superior Gaming Incorporated

This is it.

Begin prototype creation.

Enter geopolitical

allegiance.

I don't know.

Griffindor?

America.

What is the project home base?

The high school.

Who is the project commander?

You.

Duh.

Set character

capability levels.

Go big or go home,

I always say.

Gabs,

this is the sweetest thing

that anyone

has ever done for me.

Hey, our circle

may be small,

but membership does have

its privileges.

Now tell me

your ideal male human.

And do not say Jaden.

Aim higher.

Well, he'd be tall

with brown hair.

No, blonde

with blue eyes.

Meow-zers.

And even though he's super cute,

he doesn't know it.

Which makes him even cuter.

This is amazing.

It's taking our data

and turning it into virtual DNA.

He would be super polite,

like almost Canadian.

He would be

sensitive and brave.

And with just one look,

he would know exactly

how I feel.

Oh,

and he should be strong

without being a meathead.

And honest.

I wouldn't have to guess

what he's thinking all the time.

He would just tell me.

Mind-blowing.

I want him to notice

the little things.

And be wise

beyond his years.

Going to homecoming with him

wouldn't be awkward or scary

like it would be

with other boys.

And when he walks into

the dance holding my hand,

it's just perfect,
