Adam, the young nephew of the producer and an aspiring writer who worships the director... is on the set. Adam starts chatting with Jacie Tripplethree, the actoid (serial number JC333) playing the nurse and finds, to his surprise, that not only can she carry on a conversation but, due to what she calls a fault in her programming, she has a creative imagination.

Will love prevail?"--Publisher's description.
