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. Season 1 of Conduit *** For years, mechanical genius Elijah Garret has kept a low profile. As the world struggles to survive with minimal resources, he illegally repairs essential androids for those who can't afford certified technicians from megacorporation Lyons. The very same corporation that caused his father and grandfather's deaths, leaving him alone in the world save his beloved personal android, Victoria. When Elijah is betrayed by a client, he's thrust directly into Lyons' crosshairs. And the company he's spent most of his life hiding from wants his help. The androids are malfunctioning, rebelling against their creators, and without their assistance, humanity is doomed. Lyons wants Elijah to program the next batch of androids-obedient and incapable of being otherwise-and ensure the survival of everyone in the world. 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...

Brilliant mechanic and now a cyborg himself, Elijah tried to build a bridge of communication between humans and androids, but a war brews nevertheless and the entire world hangs in the balance. Season 2 of Conduit *** After Elijah's desperate broadcast pleading for peace, many androids still decided they would rather fight to attain freedom. And humanity is primed to defend themselves. But Elijah hasn't given up. His job is to bridge the gap, create peace, and restore a balance, for the world's sake. While he continues to build and code the newest batch of androids to protect humanity, he scouts the crumbling streets of Chicago to recruit other androids to his campaign for peace. But Elijah doesn't only face rejection from the androids. Many humans think of Elijah-now half-man, half-machine after a fear-fatal injury-as an abomination. To make things worse, the leader of the android rebellion is getting into Elijah's head, making him doubt himself, everything he's worked for, and his family's legacy...
