This is normal.<br \/>\nAlex knows the answers in AP math before his teacher does, which is also normal.<br \/>\nAlex knows that something bad is coming out of the big screen in his special needs class. It&#8217;s pushing images into his head, hurting him, making him forget. Alex pushes back, the screen explodes, and nothing is normal any more.<br \/>\nGiant screen televisions appear all over the city. The programming is addictive. People have to watch, but Alex cannot.<br \/>\nSophie, the sentient machine behind all this, sees the millions and millions of eyeballs glued to her and calls it love.
