#Humans begins with us seeing that Fred is not dead and he’s not at the lab. He’s at Edwin’s house and he’s under armed guard. Edwin tells Fred that Leo found out there’s something in his head and they need all of them to recreate it. Edwin says he was told to kill him and says the lines are blurring with machines and humans. Fred asks what he wants and Edwin says he wants to continue David’s work and show the world they don’t need to fear the evolution.
Laura is distracted and Sophie asks when her dad will be back from holiday. Toby asks what will happen to Anita. Laura says it’s not Anita’s fault. Mattie goes off on her mother about not telling her the truth about what’s going on and asks if she’s shagging Tom. Joe is at someone else’s house crashing on the sofa – they have a synth too. Later he lurks round the corner to talk to Toby who goes off on him for having sex with Anita.
Max watches kids playing on a playground and smiles. Leo looks bad – he’s by the water and seems to be ill. He collapses. Niska has Vera powered off and tells George that Leo will send for her soon. She threatens George with a knife and he’s not impressed. He says she won’t kill him since she likes him and says her body language reveals that and more. He says being scared of her is a waste of time. He says he lost his wife then lost memories of her from a stroke.
He struggles to open a can and he asks her for help. Niska says she doesn’t serve humans but he says he’s helping. Odi shows up at the door and collapses. Laura comforts an upset Toby and he says he would have taken the blame for what happened with Anita. Fred asks Edwin why he’s keeping him prisoner and he talks about his father David. He talks about how his father underestimated him and says humans can’t comprehend that their creations can surpass them.
He punches through a door abruptly and chokes the armed guard then takes the gun. Edwin is scared and Fred shoots him with a stun weapon, shoots the guards too, takes a car and leaves. George explains to Niska his affections for Odi who has been with him for years. Niska helps repair him and George thanks him. Simon has sex with Jill, Pete’s wife, and she asks if he can do something unexpected. He can’t but he can do what she asks.
Anita tells Laura who Mattie has been spending time with and Laura puts Anita in the car to take her to where Mattie has been hanging out. Mattie demands the truth about her dad. George clans up Odi and asks where he’s been – Odi struggles to speak. Niska wants to know if David really cared about them but he says he wasn’t there when David made them. George says David was all about his ideas and work and his wife, Leo and others weren’t interesting to him.
George asks how old she is and she says nine. He says she’s just a child. She says David didn’t always treat her like one and she says the others don’t know what David did to her. George offers his hand and says he wants to help her. She takes his hand. Laura shows Mattie a photo of her brother Tom and says he died when she was 11 and he was 5. She says he was hit by a car when she should have been watching him.
Laura says her mother couldn’t forgive her. She says she never went back home after college. Laura reveals that her mother is alive and that’s where she was on her last business trip. She says her dad knows none of this. Mattie can’t believe she has a grandmother. Laura says at 13 her mother told her she wished she had died instead of Tom. At 16, she says her mom said she let him die on purpose. Laura says it was easier to say she was an only child with dead parents – Joe doesn’t know.
Laura says she tried to reconnect with her mom to understand what was going on with her and Mattie. She says she should tell her dad and says it may help. Anita sits with them through all of this. Mattie asks about Tom and she says he was nuts. Anita gasps, scaring Laura who runs off the road. Anita says her name is Mia and says they don’t have much time. She says Anita is trying to delete her as rogue code. She says to tell Leo.
Anita begs Laura not to call the police and says she and others like her will be killed. She says her brother died too then Anita comes back and Mia is gone. Anita says she corrected the incorrect code in the system then asks to drive them home. Laura asks who Leo is and she says Leo got in touch with her about her and then told her Mia was gone. Laura says he was obviously wrong. Max walks past a memorial for a kid named Adam on the side of a street.
Max prays to a god he doesn’t believe in for help with his family – he begs that they be kept safe. Mattie shows up and says she needs to talk to Leo. Max doesn’t know where he is and says he can guess where he might be. Laura tells Toby about Mia trapped inside Anita. Max and Mattie are in the woods looking for Leo and Mattie asks if he’s special like Anita. They find Leo unconscious. Max carries him out.
Peter tells Karen he found something – he thinks it was the girl they’re looking for. He gets a call from Jill who says she had Simon modded and now he’s out of control. Simon tells Pete that she’s playing hard to get and tells Peter if he powers him down, he won’t be able to penetrate her. Peter beats Simon down with a tire iron and Jill comes out and tells Simon she’s sorry. He tells her that he’ll get her a new one and she says not to bother – he’s gone.
Karen chats up a cabbie who Niska left without paying. Mattie watches Max treat Leo and asks what he is. Toby comes looking for his dad – he says Anita is a person with feelings and he used her. Joe says she’s just plastic and metal but Toby says she’s so weird and old because there’s a person trapped inside her and she can think and feel and he sexed her up. He’s angry with his dad. Mattie tells Leo that she met Mia and she’s still in there.
She repeats what Mia says then demand to know what’s going on with Leo. He won’t tell her but Max encourages him to tell her the truth. He shows her memories that are stored digitally inside him. He says his mother got sick and then made someone to take care of her – that was Mia. He says she was the first conscious synthetic and she was his mother as he grew up. Then Niska and Max came along as siblings. He says his mother was sick and put him in a car.
She drove him off the road and into the lake. He says he was 13 when he died and Mia pulled him out of the water. He says his father kept him barely alive, inputting synth parts into him and says they helped him recover. He says one day, his dad went crazy and said he had to take care of them then killed himself and destroyed his lab. Mattie says she thought Mia was his girlfriend but he says she raised him as her own child.
Joe shows up and says he will do whatever it takes for their family to be together. Then he asks what Toby said about Anita. Laura says people are looking for Anita and want to destroy her. Laura says she feels and there’s a person in there. Mattie shows up with Leo and Max. She says Anita belongs with them. Laura asks Joe to leave. Mattie tells Leo what Mia told him to help bring her back. Mattie helps Leo figure it out.
Then Mia is there and hugs Leo. She asks if he’s all right and he says he’s been better. She hugs Max and they all laugh and smile. Mia thanks Mattie, Laura and Toby. Mia then binds Leo’s wounds and Laura asks about the people who are after them. Laura asks if they’re safe and Leo says they want them. Max says if any of them talk about them online or on the cell phone, they will be heard. Laura says she wants to help them since no one else is.
Karen and Peter watch a ball game. He says he saw Jill for the last time tonight. He says she looked for what he couldn’t provide in Simon. He asks about the lead and she says nothing came of it. Then Peter mentions the thing with Odi – and he mentions he’s George Milliken. She’s intrigued but then plays it off. He asks doesn’t she want to finish her win and Karen says it doesn’t agree with her. Peter comes to her bedroom door later and they flirt. She kisses him and he’s nervous.
Laura talks to Leo about going to the press. Fred calls and Leo says Niska is safe and they have the others. Fred says they’re all free. Leo says they may have put a tracker on him but he says he checked and there’s not and he’s sure he’s not being followed. They make a plan to meet without naming the place in case they are overheard. Leo is overjoyed.
Leo tells them his brother is free and he knows where to find him. Mia tells them she has to go but Laura thinks she’d be safer with them. Laura says it sounds very dangerous. Mia says that’s her place and Laura says she should stay and let them come back for her. Leo agree she’s safer there. He says he’ll come back with the others and they can all leave together. Mia tells him to be careful and he and Max take off.
Outside, Joe makes a call and reports a dodgy guy at his house and gives Leo’s tag number. Karen tells Peter she’s going away and wants him to know how she feels about him. She says he’s her favorite person in the world. She pulls out a charging cable and plugs it in so he can see. He laughs in disbelief thinking she’s joking. She says she needs him to know who she is. He grabs up his pants, very upset that she’s not human.
Max and Leo drive and Max says he needs to charge. They spot blue lights from a copper and pull over. He tells Max to stay calm. Then Edwin pulls up and Max says it’s them. Leo puts the car in gear and races away from the cop car and Edwin’s people. The cops give chase. They stop the car and get out and run. Max says he’s at 4% and can’t do it but Leo tells him to try. Max is ready to jump off the bridge but Leo says they need all of them to find out the code.
Leo tells Max he’ll die and to stop. Max says if he dies it means he lived and lets himself fall off the bridge. Edwin is very upset and Leo is distraught. He sends the armed men after Leo who then takes off at a run. Edwin stares down at the water. Max is deep in it and closes his eyes in peace.
