PEODUCTION HALL<\/u><\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n\n<p style=\"direction:ltr\"><span style=\"font-size:24px\"><span style=\"font-family:Tahoma,&quot;sans-serif&quot;\">In the center of the room stands a sealed machine resembling a large cylinder, a kind of closed bath with a figure lying inside. Behind it, a large computer board with numerous twinkling lights (reminiscent of panels of old computers since the early days of computing). Hidden halfway behind the bathtub, there is another similar but hermetically sealed bathtub, without a transparent window. A monotonous and unpleasant cricket-like sound fills the air. Tom approaches the metal cylinder and peers inside. He sees a figure lying down, its eyes opening and closing alternately, visibly in pain. Suddenly, the figure&#39;s gaze locks onto Tom, and he is horrified by the monstrous experience of locking eyes with the penetrating androids, who captivate him with their suffering. He recoils in fear. The figure&#39;s flesh appears pinkish and purplish, undeniably alive. It breathes rapidly, as if unable to bear the pain. It&rsquo;s head&#39;s neck jerks back abruptly, restrained by the leather straps encircling her body. A silent scream emerges from its open throat, accompanied only by the monotonous cricket-like sound. Tears well up in its eyes. Horrified, Tom turns to the manager, who quickly begins to explain.&nbsp;<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n\n<p style=\"direction:ltr; text-align:center\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n<p style=\"direction:ltr; text-align:center\"><span style=\"font-size:24px\"><span style=\"font-family:Tahoma,&quot;sans-serif&quot;\"><strong><u>MANAGER (in a cold, monotone voice)<\/u><\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n\n<p style=\"direction:ltr; margin-left:48px; margin-right:48px\"><span style=\"font-size:24px\"><span style=\"font-family:Tahoma,&quot;sans-serif&quot;\">&nbsp;Both the natural birth of a human being and the artificial birth of an android involve great physical anguish. However, it lasts only a short while, and the android comes to life. As you can see with this machine, the young lady inside is already alive; her blood flows in her veins. Although her body temperature is still 25 degrees, she already exhibits movement in her body and hands. Currently, she is experiencing intense muscle contractions during their activation for the first time. However, you can only see it in her face. All this occurs within the sealed part of the container. (Pause) In about an hour and a half (she checks the clock on the wall), she will emerge anew, without pain but with memories.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n\n<p style=\"direction:ltr\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n<p style=\"direction:ltr\"><span style=\"font-size:24px\"><span style=\"font-family:Tahoma,&quot;sans-serif&quot;\">Tom&#39;s gaze turns to Lara, who silently stares at him.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n\n<p style=\"direction:ltr; text-align:center\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n<p style=\"direction:ltr; text-align:center\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp; MANAGER In our area, there&#39;s only one remaining.
