When back-alley mechanic Elijah Garret is approached by the company who destroyed his family, he has to decide whether to repair and upgrade their androids or let the machines rebel and start a war.

But Elijah must determine whether what's being asked of him is the correct path, or even possible; and he must do it quickly. Because the androids have their own plans and Elijah is key to those as well...
