A teenage girl named Mai (Charlyne Yi) lives with her mother Molly in Grainland. Her father left them when she was young, after which her mother started to depend on robots causing Mai to feel left out. One day, the two attend a product launch at IQ Robotics headquarters. Annoyed at her mother, Mai wanders off, stumbling into the secret lab of Dr. Tanner Rice (David Cross), who has been working on an attack robot called 7723 (John Krasinski). Mai accidentally activates 7723, before getting apprehended by security and returned to her mother.
