The main things I liked about this script were its comedic anecdotes’ on contrasting the past and the present, Dr. Bogia’s determination to replace Dr. Steinfrank and the innocence that Linc’s character brings to the script.
I think the writer did a noble job incorporating such a blended mix of society’s old-values versus the present day values by using Linc’s character as a vessel. His character’s fresh and innocent eyes in the narrative offers an audience a perspective not only on the idea of human nature, but also on the question of society’s dependency on machines. Likewise, I thought it was smart of the writer to counteract that with comedic undertones by having Linc interact with the outside world where everyone thought he was just some crazed lunatic.

I found that the narrative in the second act of this script seemed to drag once Hal found Linc again. For more than a quarter of the script, Hal and Linc seemed to roam around from one place to the next aimlessly, which seemed like it was meant for a comical effect rather than for a purpose. Linc’s character repeats over and over again that he wanted to go home, but his character gets caught up in several minute aspects of the present day that are unfamiliar that it lands his character in a psych ward.
Linc’s character poses the in-depth questions present in the script, yet the writer does not seem to fully allow Linc to act on his questions or ideas. Linc character felt more like a pawn in the narrative, rather than a protagonist in pursuit of an external objective. As mentioned above, Dr. Borgia’s character is the only one who is seen continuously in pursuit of her goal to replace Dr.
