There is some cute interplay between these very earthy--both literally and figuratively--criminals and their hos', Max, a wimpy video-addict computer jock who is not even a real man in the literal sense. The professor becomes furious when he learns that visitors have been allowed into his station, but his heart melts--just like Max's--when he sees Maggie: he needs a real woman as a model for designing his female android...
