Pamela 2.0

Every home could use an extra helping hand...

Meet Pamela 2.0, the latest and greatest incarnation of a gadget like no other.

Increased intelligence! Greater dexterity! Faster responsiveness!

The lucky tech reviewer who receives the first prototype quickly learns that Pamela 2.0 represents a quantum leap in consumer robotics, capable of meeting a modern homeowner's every need.

Eager to please by following any order that doesn't involve physical contact with a human, there's almost nothing Pamela can't do — she takes out the trash, she washes the dishes, she feeds the dog.

But sometimes, just sometimes, she thinks for herself.

Today, Pamela arrived with one objective: to secure a positive review from her influential host. And one way or another, she'll stop at nothing to get it...
