A nuclear family of four moves into what they learn was the first ever smart-home. Flynn, the eldest son, tinkers with the house, seemingly triggering the awakening of the AI, Cassandra. After an initial shock, she convinces the family to let her remain on. The parents discuss whether they should send their youngest daughter, Juno, to music club.
