"Simon Says" is an episode from the sixth season of The Outer Limits. It originally aired on 10 March 2000.
A man who lost his wife and his son in a car accident several years ago has built a robot which has his son's memories.
Gideon Banks, an electronic engeneer, twenty years ago lost his wife Liz and son Simon in a horrific car accident. At that period of time he was working at so called the Neural Archiving Project — NAP for short. This technology was developed to create smart computers — transferring human engrams to computers.
The company eventually gave up on the technology, but Gideon didn't. After years of quietly perfecting it, he built a small robot, using parts he stole from Concorde Robotics, where he now works. Zoe, Gideon's niece, discovers Gideon's secret, that the robot contains actual neural engrams from the real Simon. She becomes worried not only about Gideon but also about the robot that sounds and acts a lot like her little cousin used to.
