Episode 50 - You Already Know, Don’t You? (Trailer)
Reality : “Listen to those who know me.”
Faithful Human: “Reality? Is that you? I am listening to these voices. All of the experts. The Scientists. The Philosophers. The Historians. The Psychiatrists. All of Them.”
Reality: “What are you talking about? I told you to listen to those who know me.”
Alien: “Human. Wake up. You’ve been asleep. You’ve been dreaming. It’s time to face the truth.”
Faithful Human: “I’m sorry. I’ve been listening to the Voices of Reason.”
Alien: “You mean the voices of human reason. Haven’t you learned anything from our conversations? What does your puny human intellect have to do with the truths of the greater world around you?

Episode 49 - How to Build a Human (Trailer)
P: “So, you’re building a humanoid that can give and receive love?”
S: “Sure. Why not?”
P: “But why do humans love each other?”
S: “Not sure. But a lovable humanoid robot that can both give and receive love might be quite popular. I can see the patents already!”
P: “But that begs the question. What is love? And what makes humans lovable?”
S: “Well, I could start by creating an agreeable human that’s always pleasant.”
P: “But humans that are in love can also fight and disagree. I would hate a human companion that always agreed with me. My spouse has saved my butt countless times, by doling out unwanted, but desperately needed advice.”
S: “This is getting confusing. So I should build a humanoid that is sometimes disagreeable in order to make it lovable?”
P: “Exactly.”
S: “But when should it agree or disagree? Sounds like an impossible task!”

Episode 48 - What are YOU Doing Here?
Human: “Death? What are you doing here?”
Death: “Sorry. I didn’t know I needed an invitation.”
Human: “Maybe not, but we didn’t call you, so why are you here?”
Death: “But you did call. Is there something I can do for you?”
Human: “Don’t be ridiculous! We most certainly did not call you.”
Death: “You know, it never ceases to amaze me how many times I get called, and the caller doesn’t even know it. Yet, your actions keep inviting me close.”
Human: “Well, we don’t want you ‘close’, so find something else to do.”
Death: “Oh, okay. So, that means you'll stop calling me?”
Human: “Look. Nobody’s calling you. Better get your ears checked.”
Death: “Well, no one calls me by name. It’s their actions that call me.”
