==Plot==
Late at night, John falls asleep mid-typing on the ACS Computer. It's been a hard day, and the more good the team does the more bad comes back at them; reverse karma. Erin, having late night munchies, sees John and decides to help him to his room, where the two share a brief moment although John is hypnagogic. She quite literally tucks John in and takes off his glasses in order for him to have a serene sleep. After going to the kitchen to get a snack, Erin tries to shut off the ACS Computer to conserve power but she is instead greeted by the dynamic system and informed that it shuts off automatically within thirty minutes of inactivity. Erin is astounded that Nozus managed to create a living computer, and her inquisitiveness prompts her to start asking a series of questions until she is stopped by Nozus, who was able to hear her all the way from his room. After telling her to leave the AI alone, Nozus goes back to his room where he is watching and reading various content on the subject of androids.
The next day, everyone wakes up to the loud sound of construction in the main hall where Nozus is building a suit of armor. Accompanying him is the brilliant and renowned scientists Brandon and Boris Blongy. The eccentric Boris has made a new variety of coffee that smells like manure for the members of the ACS; no one drinks it except Web who soon regrets it. When John asks what's going on, Nozus explains that there's going to be a new addition to the team. Subsequently, Collector and Wario scrutinize Brandon while Bagel and JJam inspect Boris to judge if they're good candidates, but Nozus dismisses Brandon and Boris as the new members and claims that's he's building the new inclusion with the help of the two scientists. When John questions why the team needs an android, Nozus responds by elucidating that living things are limited to certain activities and exertions that robots can complete with ease, which he took note of with Chrome. He intends on building an exoskeleton for the android and then transferring the ACS Computer's programming into the suit, in order to construct the perfect robot. In a similar fashion to how people fear they'll lose their jobs to machines, Erin begins to grow irrational feelings of animosity and jealousy towards the soon-to-be member. When Nozus takes a bathroom break, she decides to try to seduce him in order to call off the creation of the android.
What's on Web's mind, as well as nearly everybody else's, is if the robot will go haywire and attempt to obliterate the human race. Brandon firmly reassures the group that this will not happen, as he, along with Nozus and Boris, are enabling emotions on the robot to avoid any forms of insurgence, as the android can empathize and comprehend other humans. However, this comes with a price because as long as the robot can perceive emotions, it can perceive pain and therefore discern a type of psychological pain or emotional agony, as emotions lead to pain one way or another. Meanwhile, after using the bathroom Nozus is greeted by Erin without her hoodie on, revealing her Dani in Chains tank top with a low neckline that shows much cleavage. Immediately, Nozus knows what she's trying to do but it is rendered useless against the man, as Erin isn't his type.
In a scene thematically similar to Frankenstein's creation, the three scientists construct the perfect android which Nozus names AIA, an abbreviation for the Artificially Intelligent Achilles, named after the greatest warrior of Homer's Iliad. Inspired by the Greek hero, AIA's fail-safe device is located in his heel, which, when struck there with enough force, will cause AIA to shut down. AIA's voice and height is reminiscent to that of a child, and even Erin can't help but consider the robot cute. Nozus pays the scientists and they soon part ways, with Nozus heading to the training center with AIA and demanding that Collector tag along. There, he explains to Collector that he needs him to train AIA in the fields of probity, claiming Collector has a strong sense of morality and that even his own ideology is slightly flawed. Collector reluctantly agrees, but due to the importance of his responsibility, he is forced to take a leave of absence in order to solely focus on AIA.
Back in the main hall, Nozus explains Collector's circumstances before talking about AIA's potential as the first of many, explicating his future plan to supplant the police force with androids but this plot is met by quick backlash from his fellow members, especially John, who claims relying on robots is unnecessarily risky. Unable to convince his friends that his androids will be foolproof, Nozus affirms that he'll abandon his plans. Meanwhile in the training center, Collector is having a difficult time countering AIA's questions regarding psychology and human nature, specifically the necessity of emotions. Their conversation is ended prematurely, with Nozus irritably interrupting them and sending AIA to his new private quarters, even though it is only golden hour. Nozus goes to his own room where he is seen accessing a secret section of his accommodation, revealing a platform supporting an inactive Robot ACS. Nozus lied to his comrades earlier, as he has no intention of abandoning his plans. He proceeds to call an unknown associate.
In private, John talks with the other members of the ACS about how he fears Nozus may be losing his way. The outcome of the discussion results in an joint agreement to monitor Nozus more.
