doing all the work for them.

Operating completely unsupervised.

A totally mobile,

independent robotics system!

Saunders, are they moving out or not?

Are you kidding?

What we smashed is worth

nothing compared to that.

These guys must be loaded.

Why are they in that building?

They probably bought it.

Okay, so we get rid of the robot.

Benjamin? Wake up call.

Up and at 'em, Benjamin.

Time for recharging.

Good morning.

You have an alternative power supply?

Lithium-argon liquid battery.

Good for 500 hours.

Improvement on your design.

Got the bugs out.

Yes, and I'm proud of you.

You removed your laser weapon.

Weapon is to kill, disassemble, make dead.

Unacceptable.

You have made many modifications

upon your person.

You have come a long way

from a Defense Department prototype.

You betcha! It's the all-new Johnny Five.

Just look at these items!

Increased memory, 500 megabytes on-line.

I come with a utility pack

and gadgets for outdoor living.

Lots of Greenpeace stickers

and even a Nike swoosh!

If you act now, I'll throw in for free...

...my all-new multi-frequency

remote control!

You're a crazy man, huh?

There's a guy trying to sleep up here.

"I can't help it. I'm in a panic.

"I'm frantic and I'm manic!"

Fred, it is time to wake up.

The early bird gets worms.

What is the time being?

-8:
37 a.m. And 17 seconds.

-Oh, my God.

I'm supposed to go to Simpson's

to sign the papers.

Benjamin! I'll go with you.

I'd love more input.

Oh no, Johnny Five, you...

...must wait here. You stay here.

There is nothing outside.

It's very boring out there.

Everything you need is here.

I'll be back soon.

It is very boring out there. No input.

Boring.

Dubious. Hard to believe.

-Excuse me.

-Hi. Mr. Jarvee, right?

Jahrvi, but you can call me B-E-N.

I spell it Ben.

Ben, hi. So, how's it going?

Great.

This is for you.

-Ben, it looks great.

-Thank you.

This looks even better than your prototype.

You can mass produce

at this quality and still meet...

...our deadline?

Yes.

Great. Why don't you go down

and see my secretary...

...about signing the papers?

I don't know why.

-No, I mean, you should go--

-I mean, yes.

Okay. Good, well, so good luck

with the rest of them and...

...we'll be in touch.

" Please won't you be my neighbor?"

Hi, neighbor.

I've been thinking about you,

and I thought you...

...might like to see Hisher Boot-trunk.

Hisher is a ventriloquist's dummy.

He isn't alive. I'm alive.

I'm a human being like you.

Hisher is made

of papier-mache and wood...

...and except for pretend,

Hisher doesn't have feelings.

I have feelings.

I have skin and bones....

Hey, gently with the shirt.
