Title: Mary 25 Plot: Charlie Bouton (Tom Butler) faces skepticism at Innobotics Corporation after his previous creation, Valerie 23, malfunctioned spectacularly. To regain trust, he and scientist Melburn Ross (Michael Shanks) unveil Mary 25 (Sophia Shinas), a nanny robot derived from the flawed model.
