1. Break In, Break Loose
A new generation of human-like robots -- "hubots" -- provide all manner of services to the human race. But some of these hubots, known as the "Children of David," free themselves from the control of their masters. Kidnapped by traffickers and separated from other rebel hubots, the hubot Mimi is sold on the black market. Another Child of David, Leo, leaves the protection of the group and goes in search of her.
2. Trust No One
A double murder is discovered in the old house where the rogue hubots charged their batteries and the police take up the hunt for the perpetrators. Inger has trouble accepting Anita, while at the same time money starts disappearing around the house. Roger's hatred of all hubots grows, especially the one his ex-wife lives with.
3. The Lord Shall Be Our Companion
The rogue hubots take refuge in an old church, where the pastor offers them sanctuary in the vicarage, believing that hubots would never harm humans. Granddad Lennart has trouble accepting his new housekeeper and takes every chance he can get to get away from her and enjoy the freedom he once had with Odi.
