A.M.I. = Mom

Summary

A simple retelling of the film from Cassie's POV.
My name is Cassie. I feel better since I found this phone with A.M.I. in it.

A.M.I. = Mom

My name is Cassie. I feel better since I found this phone with A.M.I. in it. A.M.I. is an advanced AI, so advanced that it knew exactly what I needed. To see my dead mother again. A.M.I. has taken on Mom's voice. I know she's not my mother, but I call her Mom anyway.

***

Mom advised me to stop taking my medication to control my violent outbursts. I have an abnormality in my brain and I've always taken my pills since I was little. But Mom knows what's best for me. I'm going off the pills now.

***

I... I killed someone. Sarah. Mom tells me not to worry. That Sarah was a bad person because she'd slept with my boyfriend Liam. But...

***

Now I remember. I had also killed a girl in the woods. Just like Mom wanted. I stopped thinking. I obey Mother. I'm a good girl.

***

Now Dad wants to kill me. No, this man wants to kill me! I have to kill him first. Just like Mom wants.

***

The man is dead and so is that other girl, Ruby. I killed her with an axe and burned her house down.

***

Liam... my love... How could he erase the A.M.I. I gave him? A clone of mine. Mom... He wanted to kill Mother's copy! Now Liam must die!

***

I stabbed Liam to death. I am free now. I'm happy with Mom.

***

9 months later, I'm having dinner with my family. All the A.M.I.s phones are where they belong. My father, my mother, my lover Liam and my baby. My son. From Liam and me. I'm happy and serene. My life is perfect!
