Un vecchio invalido viene scelto come cavia per un inedito esperimento scientifico, e così viene affidato alle cure di una insolita infermiera, il letto robotico Z-001, direttamente collegato alle sue onde cerebrali. Ma l'automa evolverà in un modo del tutto imprevisto dai suoi creatori, trasformandosi nell'inarrestabile realizzatore dei desideri più reconditi del vecchio malato.
