The episode opens with the Kim family, seemingly ordinary folks living the suburban dream. Dad, a mild-mannered accountant, Mom, a hardworking nurse, and their two children, Alex and Emily, complete the picture. But behind closed doors, a bizarre secret is about to be unveiled.
During a particularly messy dinner party, the parents notice an uncanny silence from the kitchen. Investigating, they find Alex and Emily standing perfectly still, their hands submerged in the soapy water, their eyes blank. A closer inspection reveals a series of wires and tubes connecting them to the dishwasher.
Panic ensues as the family grapples with the reality that their children have been replaced by highly advanced dishwashing machines. The episode ends with the parents staring in disbelief at their robotic offspring, while the "children" continue to scrub dishes with alarming efficiency.
Episode 2: The Learning Curve

Meanwhile, the family struggles with the emotional impact of the situation. Mom and Dad grapple with feelings of loss and confusion, while neighbors and friends begin to notice the uncanny cleanliness of the Kim household. The episode ends with a humorous scene where the family tries to explain their situation to a perplexed dinner guest.

However, unexpected challenges arise when the "children" develop personalities. Alex starts to show signs of rebellion, refusing to wash certain dishes, while Emily becomes obsessed with organizing the cutlery drawer. The family must now find a way to balance their newfound success with the quirks of their robotic children.
