The Hand
That Feeds

The Kafka Robotics Operating Team has dedicated decades to tinkering alone. Beyond connectivity. Beyond humanity. Tinkering and working to create the company’s magnum opus – The Android. A friend money can buy.

After awkward loner Kendall responds to a curious ad promising the opportunity to be and to make a friend, he is introduced to the Android – who has a distance to go before he is actually ready to be shipped to shelves. The Android’s task is to be Kendall’s friend. Kendall’s task is to aid the Android in comprehending the ways humans think and, more seriously, the ways they feel.

Unfortunately, Kendall is woefully underequipped. And the Android, for better or for worse, is closer to human than his Creators – closer to human than even Kendall – ever suspected.
