"My name is Roger Smith. I perform a much-needed job in the city of amnesia," Roger is a negotiator for Paradigm City, a city where anything can happen. Forty years ago, everyone in the city lost his or her memories. Obviously, they don�t remember how, but little be little, everyone is regaining memories. Memories are �Like nightmares, they come without warning,� and at anytime (ask Roger).
Now onto Roger himself. He is a billionaire, riding around in a James Bond-like car, living in a huge mansion (complete with butler), and is a slick dresser, wearing everything, and I mean everything, black. He has a lot of nifty gadgets, including a wristwatch communicator that also doubles as a graveling hock, and a giant Megadeus (robot) called Big O.
After handling a kidnapping, the kidnappy, R. Dorothy Waynewright, asks for Roger�s protection. We�re not exactly sure why (at least I�m not), though. The �R� in Dorothy�s name I�m pretty sure stands for �Robot�, seeing how she is an android. Timothy Waynewright (Dorothy�s creator) modeled her after the granddaughter that he lost forty years ago. Though Dorothy may only mimic humans, she does seem to be more human-like than any other android Roger has seen. She now works as a maid for Roger, to repay him for her protection. She also seems to be in love with Roger, though he says that androids can�t feel emotions.
As the show continues on, it gets creepier, and more twisted (I might do an episode guide, since there are only 13). The show ends in a cliffhanger, and it doesn�t look like there will be any other shows, though it�s still a possibility. |
