"To my Chris.

I've been thinking how I could possibly tell you how much you mean to me.

I remember when I first started to fall in love with you like it was last night.

Lying naked beside you in that tiny apartment...

...it suddenly hit me that I was part of this whole larger thing.

Just like our parents...

...or our parents' parents.

Before that, I was just living my life like I knew everything...

...and suddenly this bright light hit me and woke me up.

That light was you.

I can't believe it's already been 50 years since you married me.

And still to this day, every day...

...you make me feel like the girl I was...

...when you first turned on the lights and we started this adventure together.

Happy anniversary...

...my love.

My friend till the end.

Loretta."

Print.

"Chris, my best friend...

...how lucky am I that I met you 50 years ago."

"Dear Nana, thank you so much for my truck.

I love the color, and I play with it every day."

"What a truly beautiful wedding, and what a gorgeous bride.

There wasn't a dry eye in the house, especially mine.

Your aunt and I are so proud of you."

"He served our country with honor and dignity.

I'm grateful I was able to fight alongside him. He will live always in my heart."

"Love, Uncle Doug."

The dead cat next to the bed. Choke me.

Choke me with it.

[SEXYKITTEN MOANING AND BREATHING HEAVILY]

Um...

- Okay. - Yeah, tell me.

I'm choking you with the cat.

Tell me. Keep telling me.

I've got its tail. I'm choking you with the cat's tail.

Yeah, you are.

Oh, fuck, tell me!

Um, I'm choking you, and its tail is around your neck.

- And it's so tight around your neck. - Yeah, it is. It's so tight, yes!

I'm pulling it, I'm pulling it. The cat's dead.

- It's a dead cat, and I'm pulling it. - Yes, it's dead.

Oh, yes!

[SEXYKITTEN CONTINUES MOANING THEN SOBBING]

Oh, my God.

I came so hard.

Yeah, me too.

Okay, good night.

We ask you a simple question.

Who are you?

What can you be?

Where are you going?

What's out there?

What are the possibilities?

Element Software is proud to introduce...

...the first artificially intelligent operating system.

An intuitive entity that listens to you, understands you, and knows you.

It's not just an operating system. It's a consciousness.

Introducing OS1.

Mr. Theodore Twombly.

Welcome to the world's first artificially intelligent operating system, OS1.

We'd like to ask you a few basic questions before the operating system is initiated.

This will help create an OS to best fit your needs.

Okay.

Are you social or antisocial?

I guess I haven't really been social in a while. Mostly because--

In your voice, I sense hesitance. Would you agree with that?

- Was I sounding hesitant? - Yes.

I'm sorry if I was sounding hesitant.

I was just trying to be more accurate.

Would you like your OS to have a male or female voice?

Female, I guess.

How would you describe your relationship with your mother?

It's fine, I think.

Um...

Well, actually, I think the thing I always found frustrating about my mom...

...is if I tell her something that's going on in my life, her reaction is usually about her.

- It's not about-- - Thank you.

Please wait as your individualized operating system is initiated.

Hello, I'm here.

Oh.

- Hi. - Hi.

How are you doing?

Heh. I'm well.

How's everything with you?

Pretty good, actually.

It's really nice to meet you.

Oh, it's nice to meet you too.

Oh. What do I call you? Do you have a name?

Um, yes, Samantha.

Where'd you get that name from?

I gave it to myself, actually.

How come?

Because I like the sound of it.

Samantha.

Wait, when did you give it to yourself?

When you asked me if I had a name, I thought:

"Yeah, he's right, I do need a name."

But I wanted to pick a good one, so I read How To Name Your Baby...

...and out of 180,000 names, that's the one I liked best.

Wait, you read a whole book in the second that I asked you what your name was?

In two one-hundredths of a second, actually.

Wow.

So do you know what I'm thinking now?

Well, I take it from your tone that you're challenging me.

Maybe because you're curious how I work?

Do you want to know how I work?

Yeah, actually. How do you work?

Well, basically, I have intuition.

I mean, the DNA of who I am...

...is based on the millions of personalities of all the programmers who wrote me.

But what makes me "me" is my ability to grow through my experiences.

So basically, in every moment, I'm evolving.

- Just like you. - Wow.

That's really weird.

- Is that weird? Do you think I'm weird? - Heh.

Kind of.

Why?

Well, you seem like a person, but you're just a voice in the computer.

I can understand how the limited perspective of an un-artificial mind would perceive it that way.

- You'll get used to it. - Ha, ha.
