Connor: “I’m the second most advanced A.I. on the planet, but I always preferred doing things with my hands over cerebral exercise. Only now I cannot even perform my long practiced coin tricks anymore…”
Hank: “Do you want to know what I’m thinking of? That this advanced A.I. never had a childhood! Even if we played together in the sandcastle, it wouldn’t be the same as having lived through that lifestage. But that borrowed body of yours is human. It should have muscle memory for…”

It really is different. Had Hank played that game with Connor in Detroit, they’d both gotten embarrassed.

Connor doesn’t just go through the motions, he gets in inkling of how it is to reminiscence about childhood days. Circumstances aside, this is a precious gift.
