Yes, half expected D.A.D to decide it was in the girls interest for dad to ... go away. - There's one on Dust with Jewel Staite as a humanoid/android baby sitter that goes a bit like that.

How seriously, engagingly, welcoming fun. Art can give a serious and needed message when it is done well, and this one is done very well. I enjoyed the exchanges between Darien and Joey which added a truly human depth (I'm frustrated because I know its true and I have nothing to say) to James. We've all been there and that provided sympathy and identification with him. That was a very good touch. Very well done.

I was anticipating an alternate ending via a realization that the android could be programmed to take his place at the job with pay (as rent for his children’s programmed intellectual property and know how😄😄😄)…. just a bit of optimistic thinking on my part for the future and AI.

Perfect futuristic parody of a quite realistic possibility of so many work-alcoholic fathers, and, let's face it, far better than the actual youth addicted to their smartphones. WOW, dear James, It’s the second time you surprise me with the quality of your short movies (first time with “What if Wendy”). Everything is perfect: the scenario, the acting, the background (decor and sound), the special effects, and the message you're sharing with humour and humanitarianism way. I’m very impressed. You're one of the best directors I know out of the (almost) 650 I saw, distributed by DUST. Thank you so much :-)
