Johnny 5
During a combat demonstration for the SAINT robots, a freak thunderstorm kicked up and cut the display short.
As the robots were being prepared to go into storage, a bolt of lightning struck the charging station that Number Five was still connected to,and a power surge enveloped Number Five.
Still functional but disoriented, the robot was ordered to go to the Nova lab's workshop for repairs.
On its way down, it took in its surroundings with a newfound curiosity, behaving much like a young child.
The robot got lost on its way to the workshop and ended up wandering off the lab grounds, venturing out into town.
When Nova realized that Number Five was missing, Newton Crosby and his partner Ben Jahrvi (shortened from "Jabituya") were able to track it and monitor its data input.
However, Sgt. Skroeder - Nova's military liaison and security chief - was convinced that the robot was dangerous and was determined to destroy it, sending out armed troops to find the missing machine.
During its travels, Number Five's tracking device was damaged by a bird that landed on its head and it rolled into the back of a snack truck owned by Stephanie Speck.
Stephanie doesn't notice at first, but that evening after she returns home, she notices noise coming from her truck and discovers Number Five.
At first, Stephanie believes that Number Five is some sort of alien.
She takes him into her house and he requests new 'input', analyzing everything in the house with a childlike sense of wonder and making a mess while he does it.
Stephanie also shows Number Five her bookcase and witnesses his ability to read at inhumane speed.
After reading everything in the house and still wanting more input, Number Five starts watching television and begins memorizing and copying every quote, song and limerick he hears.
He watches until morning and Stephanie then shows him her garden and her three-legged pet dog Beasley.
Number Five is startled when Beasley barks at him and falls over backwards off of the porch.
When Stephanie checks to see if he is all right, she notices the Nova logo on the side of Number Five's tracks.
He admits he is a robot and then Stephanie phones Nova Robotics to tell them she has him.
After finishing the call, Stephanie tells Number Five that Nova wants to take him apart to find out why he is malfunctioning.
At first Five is unconcerned, but after spotting a grasshopper in the garden and accidentally squashing it, he asks Stephanie to reassemble it.
Stephanie then tells Number Five the hard truth about death and Five comes to the conclusion that if Nova disassemble him, they will kill him.
Fearing for his life, Number Five takes off in Stephanie's truck.
A hectic chase ensues with Nova pursuing Number Five and Stephanie all over the state, and Number Five tries to convince Stephanie and his programmer Newton that he is alive.
Crosby is eventually convinced but Nova refuses to listen to him when he tries to convince them that Number Five is sentient.
Using spare parts from a stolen Nova van, Number Five builds a copy of himself and sends it to distract Skroeder's men.
The soldiers destroy the decoy and then pull out, then Number Five reveals himself to Crosby and Stephanie once they are gone.
Wanting to explore and learn about the world, Number Five - adopting the name "Johnny" - and his friends drive to Montana where they can live in privacy.
