Episode 3.
Toby races on a bicycle to stop Laura taking Anita back. He reaches her car, and Anita, seeing that Toby is in danger of being run over, steps in front of the van herself. Back at the house, Joe checks Anita to make sure there is no external damage. Elsewhere, George locks Vera in a room, and takes Odi out. The car crashes, and George orders Odi to hide in the woods. Drummond and Voss investigate the murder at the brothel, and Niska meets up with Leo and Max. After arguing with them, Niska goes to a bar, where she is chatted up by a man. Believing he is going to cheat on his wife with her, Niska hides a knife behind her back, but the man mentions he was looking after his young daughter for the weekend. Back at the Hawkins household, Sophie says she would rather have Anita put her to bed than Laura. Anita convinces Sophie to let Laura do it to make her happy. Later that night, Mattie downloads Anita's data to her laptop, and Anita grabs her wrist and displays fear.

Episode 4.
Laura meets a client who thinks synths can feel emotions and deserve human rights; she is intrigued by the idea. Meanwhile, her husband Joe grows suspicious about her sudden absence, and asks Anita to track Laura's car. He asks if anyone on the road is called Tom, and is about to go and find Laura when Anita tells him she's meeting with a client. Joe discovers an "18+" pack and has sex with Anita. Mattie meets up with Leo but runs away when he claims her synth is called 'Mia'. Leo and Max then discover executable code within Mia's programming and extract it. Leo connects himself with his laptop and tries to run the program but tells Niska that it will require all of them. Niska finds a smash club, where synths are savagely beaten for entertainment and starts attacking the humans there. Laura and Joe take Anita in to be diagnosed and discover she is at least fourteen years old, rather than being brand new. Pete Drummond's wife suggests that they separate temporarily, and he goes to stay with his colleague Karen, who, unbeknownst to him, is a synth herself.

Episode 5.
Leo sends Niska to stay with Doctor Millican for a few days, because she has made the news for killing a human. Mattie contacts Leo and brings Anita to him, but Anita does not recognise the name 'Mia' or show any signs of being aware of her past. Niska and Doctor Millican discuss artificial consciousness and his involvement with the creation of synths. Mattie takes Anita home and finds in a log that someone has had sex with her. She assumes it was Toby, who admits this when Laura questions him. DS Drummond visits Doctor Millican, having found the remains of Odi, but does not discover Niska. Joe talks to Toby, who knows that it was really Joe who had sex with Anita. Toby becomes angry at Joe. Drummond attends a "We Are People" rally and listens to a man who feels synths make humans redundant. Joe confesses to Laura that it was he who had sex with Anita, and asks her who Tom is. Laura throws him out.

Episode 6.
Edwin tells Fred he has found out about the program David left in the group of conscious synths. Niska is hiding out at George's. Laura reveals to Mattie that Tom is her late younger brother whose fatal accident was blamed on her. Jill and Simon's relationship turns sexual, but Jill calls Pete, as Simon won't stop, and Pete comes to save her by destroying Simon. Pete offers to pay for a new synth, but Jill tells him to leave. Pete and Karen have sex, after which Karen reveals she is really a synth. Whilst driving back in the car, Mia regains control and tells Mattie to take her to Leo. Leo reveals his past: Mia was created by David as Leo's carer, then Max, Fred and Niska were added. When Leo drowned at twelve, David saved him by adding synth technology to him. Joe reconciles with Laura when Leo and Max arrive. Leo is able to restore Mia and then leaves with Max to meet Fred, but Joe calls the authorities. Cornered by Edwin and police, Max sacrifices himself by jumping into the river to help Leo escape.

Episode 7.
Karen was built by David Elster to replace his dead wife Beatrice, but Leo and David's conscious synths rejected her. Before he killed himself, David had told the others that he had killed her, so the others had left her behind. Pete investigates Karen's stolen identity. At George's, Karen asks Niska to kill her. When she refuses, an argument starts during which Vera and George are shot. Odi waits beside George's dying body, telling him that his wife is just waiting in the next room, an old memory. Leo, Fred, Niska, and Mia all reunite at the Hawkins' to repair Max, but Max is too damaged and does not regain consciousness. Joe, Toby and Fred play football, and Joe apologises to Toby. A policewoman comes to the house, and tells Joe she's here to follow-up on the call he made. Joe apologises to the synths, but they decide to leave as soon as Max recovers. The news displays footage of Niska assaulting humans at the smash club. The synths beg them to let them help Max, but they refuse. Whilst Leo gets his bag, Karen arrives with Hobb, and the police arrest everyone.

Episode 8.
Hobb has brought Leo, Max, Mia, Fred, and Niska to his lab, where he links their minds to extract David's programme, but the programme is incomplete, as Karen's part is missing. Hobb has made himself Fred's primary user, and plans to disassemble the other synths. Karen begs Leo to kill her. The Hawkins want to save Leo and the synths. Pete helps them recover Mattie's laptop, which contains a copy of Leo's memories, from the police. Laura forces Hobb to set his captives free by threatening to release Leo's memories to the press. Leo tries to remove Hobb's primary user status from Fred's coding. They all, Karen included, connect and share the programme. Karen almost shuts them down, but Mia convinces her not to, and David's programme is put together. They consider publishing it to give all synths consciousness but decide to store it on a hard drive and entrust it to Laura before splitting up. Niska tells the other synths that she wants to live her own life, but secretly makes a copy of the consciousness programme for herself.
