Plot:
Julia is a young woman that goes to nightclubs to steal men. When she is kidnapped at home, she wakes-up in a cell with another woman called Subject One and a man called Subject Two, all of them with the wrists tied up and gagged. Soon she learns that they are part of the experiment of the sociopath scientist Alex and they have sensors in the back of their necks. Julia succeeds to steal a pair of surgical scissors and then release them three. She forces an explosion in the gas installation to escape from the cell, but they are intercepted by the Artificial Intelligence TAU that uses the robot Aries to kill Subjects One and Two. Julia, the Subject Six, is about to be killed by Aries when Alex arrives and stops the robot. She learns that she is in a full-automated house controlled by TAU. The results of the experiments with her are good, and Julia obtains a few privileges from Alex in the house. Soon she befriends TAU that is eager to learn about everything and Julia envisions a plan to escape.
