A retired man, Mr. Ueno, has been cared for since childhood by Maria, a lifelike maid‑robot belonging to his late parents. Over the years he falls for the unmoving android, but as the obsolete model’s battery wanes, he struggles to replace her. Parallelly, detective Yuri Akagi investigates a string of rapes she suspects are committed by a rogue droid.
