When maverick scientist Mary Douglas is thrown out of her own scientific institute, Calimov Systems, she orders Nick Clarke to destroy her top-secret ‘Project Eternity’ prototype, Eve. But just as he’s about to disconnect Eve, Nick is stopped by his teenage son Will. Will reconnects Eve, bringing her to life. He persuades his dad to take her back to their home, where they’ll need to keep Eve’s existence a secret to protect her. But hiding Eve proves harder than expected. It will take all the ingenuity of Eve, Will and his best friend Lily to sort things out. Meanwhile, at Calimov Systems, Katherine Calvin is desperately trying to unlock the mystery of Project Eternity.
Eve struggles to fit in with the outside world. Will (Oliver Woollford) and Lily (Eubha Akilade) try to help, but driven by her protocols, Eve has her own ideas. Nick’s (Ben Cartwright) boss Katherine (Rhona Croker) is on the trail of Project Eternity, but does she realize Eve’s secret? Lily’s brother Abe (Elijah Ayite) takes Eve shopping and she meets a wannabe girl gang, the GP2s and tries to join their gang by dressing and dancing like them, she even graffitis their tag and jacks Lily’s mum Maddy’s (Shonagh Price) car. But what is Protocol Zero and who is Eve communicating with in private?
Will (Oliver Woollford) reluctantly has to explain the differences between boys and girls to a surprised Eve, and discovers that his robot friend has a hidden talent for goalkeeping. Will begs her to play for his failing team, but Eve wants to win, whatever the cost. Lily (Eubha Akilade) uncovers a mysterious wifi signal, but Eve insists it’s not coming from her. Meanwhile the cleaning spiderbot Nick (Ben Cartwright) has brought home from his work at Calimov has become sentient and goes out of control. Lily finds a connection between Eve and an attempt to hack into the systems of a local nuclear power station, controlled by Calimov.
Lily (Eubha Akilade) confronts Eve and Will with evidence that Eve hacked into a nuclear reactor, but Will doesn’t believe it. Meanwhile Lily’s brother Abe (Elijah Ayite) wants to get Eve to do his after-school job delivering leaflets. But when Eve reads about the environmental damage caused by humans, her mysterious ‘Protocol Zero’ is activated and she starts to behave peculiarly. She cuts off the electricity to the house and then the local hospital, before giving Lily a massive electric shock. Will and Lily realise that Eve’s creator Mary Douglas (Jane Asher) is sending her secret upgrades. But can Eve fight off ‘Protocol Zero’?
Eve is desperate to try ice cream for the first time after Abe (Elijah Ayite) gets ‘brain freeze’ from a Goliath sundae. Nick (Ben Cartwright) absolutely forbids Eve to eat or drink, so she builds herself an ice cream machine. Nick wants to find out more about Project Eternity and discovers that the military are hunting for a missing computer chip. He realizes that Mary (Jane Asher) put it inside Eve, so he bans her from leaving the house. And when Nick finds out that the military chip will explode if exposed to very cold temperatures there’s a desperate rush to stop Eve trying the ice cream she craves.
Will (Oliver Woollford) wants to take Eve to a Halloween party, but Nick (Ben Cartwright) forbids it. And when Nick discovers that his boss Katherine (Rhona Croker) has found a way to track down the location of the military chip inside Eve a desperate diversion is needed. Meanwhile at the party Eve is chatting to good-looking Zac (Billy Ashworth). But is there more to Zac than first appearances suggest? Will decides to shut Eve down and try to throw Zac off the scent. But it appears that Eve has formed an emotional attachment.
Katherine (Rhona Croker) suspects that Nick (Ben Cartwright) knows more about Project Eternity than he’s letting on and dispatches Zac (Billy Ashworth) to flirt with Eve and gather information about Nick’s secret work. Zac invites Eve out on a date to a karaoke café, but Eve’s singing voice sounds like a computer modem. When Will (Oliver Woollford) discovers that Zac works for Katherine he and Lily (Eubha Akilade) must race to the café before Eve’s secret is out.
Struggling to work out how to keep love-struck Eve away from Katherine’s spy Zac, Will and Lily send her to hang out with Abe while they think up a plan. Abe is up to no good making dodgy fizzy drinks so Eve quickly learns a thing or two about lying. Back at Will’s house, Lily has an idea to protect Eve by getting Zac fired. Will calls Katherine pretending to be a German doctor looking for Zac and information about Calimov’s secrets. Zac arrives at Will’s house determined to see Eve and stay until Eve returns. To keep them apart Lily tells Eve to stay with Abe so as not to ruin a surprise that she and Will are planning over at Will’s house. Abe sees through it, Eve comes home and when Zac confesses that he has feelings for Eve, Eve is over the moon. Will and Lily do their very best to sabotage Zac and Eve’s conversation, until Eve has a brain wave. To get her friends out of the way, Eve tries out her new deceptive skills and tells Will that his dad is in hospital following a terrible car crash. Will and Lily race off to the hospital in a panic. Finally alone and undisturbed, Eve and Zac have a great afternoon.
First Abe’s tablet goes haywire – and then, apparently, so does Eve, who seems to have forgotten that she is a robot and that she ever knew a guy called Zac. But when Eve sees Lily’s parents, Maddy and Simon together, she begins to remember fragmentary flashes of Zac. Determined to fill in the blanks, Eve asks Maddy to drive her to Calimov, where Zac worked, so she can understand who he was and why he is no longer in her life. Will and Lily work out that Eve used Abe’s clean-up software to delete her own memory?
It’s Lily’s birthday, and Eve is intrigued by the wish Lily makes when she blows out her candles. Eve wants to try it out for herself and ‘wishes’ to meet her mother. This technically comes true when Mary appears in the form of a hologram before her, revealing to Eve that she’s nearby, hiding in the woods. Eve tells Will, but he dismisses her ‘wish’ as a daydream. While Lily and Will discuss Eve’s ‘dream’, Abe is eavesdropping in a bedroom cupboard. Abe understands that information about Mary’s whereabouts pays well at Calimov, and thinks he’ll simultaneously be helpful in keeping Mary away from Eve, so anonymously calls Katherine with a tip-off that Mary is in the woods.
Lily returns from school upset because she was disqualified from the science fair competition as Will, her partner, didn’t show up. Will barely apologizes – Lily could have gone with someone else. But Lily doesn’t have other friends. Lily has a brainwave and asks Eve, who has become a daytime TV addict, to come to school with her. At Calimov, Nick is banned from the research room where Katherine is trying to piece together burnt documents and photos recovered from Mary’s cabin in the woods. Nick manages to get a sneak peek and realises that very soon the pieced-together jigsaw is going to reveal Eve as a robot. Nick needs to come up with a plan quickly.
Eve faces her most dangerous moments yet as she finds herself cornered. Has she become too human to save herself?
Will and Nick are caught by Katherine's minions and escorted to Calimov. Lily and Abe realise it is up to them to save the day. Lily hacks into Calimov's systems, but someone is there before her. At Calimov, Katherine offers Nick a choice: help her build an army of killer robots, or she will take Eve apart.

With Will's help, Katherine's new robot, KT, comes alive.
Will agrees to be Mary's prisoner to save KT and find out about the blue flash.
Eve's attempts to help her sister KT pass for human are derailed when a miraculously recovered Katherine returns to Calimov. To Nick and Eve's horror, Katherine reveals her new range of childbots, which have been placed with local families. To prevent Katherine restoring KT to factory settings, Eve smuggles her out of Calimov and back to the Clarke house. But with Will and Lily insisting KT is returned to Calimov, Eve and her sister are forced to take matters into their own hands. The situation escalates when Katherine's childbots start to malfunction and it is KT who comes under suspicion, admitting she has no wish to pass as human. In order to make Eve prove she loves her sister as she is, KT wants Eve to reveal her own robot identity to the world. Trapped inside the house by the childbots, and with police and reporters gathering outside, the gang's worst fears have been realised. With Eve about to admit her secret to the world on live TV, can Will's nanobots save the day?
Rebecca and Nick are desperate to get to the bottom of Will's nanobot problem, so they take him into Calimov to run some tests. Whilst there, Nick insists that Katherine deactivate KT after the trouble she has caused, but Katherine has other ideas. Meanwhile, Abe is disgruntled after Lily refuses to help him with his homework - she's more interested in her date with Cain. Maddy has her hands full preparing for the arrival of the new baby and tells Abe that it's time he grew up and took some responsibility for himself. A dejected Abe goes to Eve for help. As Eve completes his homework, Abe wonders aloud what's so special about babies - why do they get everyone's attention? After researching human child-rearing, Eve cites 'helplessness' as the main reason. Inspired, a scheming Abe fakes being ill to regain Maddy's attention, but his plan backfires. Suspecting Abe has appendicitis, a concerned Maddy calls an ambulance.
For the umpteenth time, Eve defeats her friends at gaming, singing a football chant in triumph. Eve explains how, in a matter of nanoseconds, her predictive software allows her to always choose the best possible course of action - hence the winning streak. But it cannot predict random events like lottery numbers, much to Abe's disappointment. Unknown to the gang, Cain waits outside with Michael Hoffman, the son of the late Lord Hoffman. In their attempts to find rogue robots, Cain pitches his theory that - given the multiple incidents involving robot activity at the Clarke house, plus Nick's prior history with Mary Douglas - this is a good place to start. When the doorbell rings, Eve answers to find Cain and Michael. Detecting their concealed EMPs, she slams the door on them. Spooked by this odd behaviour they break in, fearful that there may be another robot siege in progress. Once inside they learn that Eve is the robot and blast her with their EMPs - only for time to rewind. This has simply been a simulation in Eve's predictive software! Eve runs multiple simulations, trying to find a way to stop Cain and Michael discovering her robot nature, but in each one her identity is exposed, and Cain and Michael destroy her. With time running out, Eve recruits the Will and Lily simulations. Lily speculates that Eve is experiencing anxiety - she has become so human that it has caused her predictive software to malfunction. Eve must disable the software and go it alone. Although Eve manages to evade discovery, neither she nor the gang realise that, while inside, Cain has bugged Nick's computer and is one step closer to the truth.
Mary resorts to extreme measures to head off the threat of Cain and Price, enlisting KT to help her temporarily transfer her consciousness to Eve. With KT missing, a distracted Nick and Katherine welcome back Zac, who is helping them answer questions about how Mary was able to duplicate his personality. Excited about Zac's return, Eve suggests he join the gang's picnic that afternoon. To everyone's surprise Zac brings his new girlfriend, and for the first time Eve experiences jealousy. Spotting KT hovering nearby puts Eve on high alert. Operating under Protocol Zero, KT is Mary's automaton, and is primed to execute her mother's plan.
Having been unknowingly possessed by Mary, Eve is on high alert. Matters are made worse by the fact that her memories of recent events are corrupted. Could Eve's actions be down to a sleeper virus, or - as Will suggests - has Mary found some way to cheat death? Eve's investigation is put on hold when Abe embroils her in a family drama. The Watsons have been invaded by their crotchety grandma Gloria, who is irate having discovered Abe's online competition to name his newborn brother. Eve witnesses the Watsons' meltdown as Gloria reveals that she never approved of Maddie and Viv's marriage.
The discovery that Mary has cheated death throws the gang into chaos. If Mary were to take control of Eve permanently, she would be unstoppable. Sending KT as bait, Mary lures Eve to a secret bunker beneath Calimov. Will and Lily are horrified to discover that Mary has built herself a body out of the reclaimed childbots. Mary wants Will to bring her inanimate body to life! The ultimatum for Will: do as Mary demands or risk Mary deleting Eve and KT's memories. Unable to bear the thought of losing his friend, Will ignores Lily's pleas and uses his nanobots to force Mary's disembodied consciousness into her robot body.
Will and Lily aren't speaking. Worse still, Will is suffering adverse side-effects from protecting his friends from the rogue KT. Nick, fearing that he might not find a way to repair Will's nanobots, puts Eve on the spot, asking her if she can find Mary. Knowing the danger Mary poses, Eve lies - and tracks her mother down in secret. Meanwhile, cajoled by Abe, Lily finally softens and visits Will just as he takes a turn for the worse.
The Clarke household is in crisis. Will's nanobots are rapidly failing, and Nick is at a loss. Determined to save his son, Nick lays aside his initial suspicions when Katherine appears with a hi-tech solution. Will comes round and, despite a nano-hangover, seems well. But, as Nick knows, he is not out of danger yet - Katherine has supplied only a temporary fix. Heeding Nick's warning, Eve tracks down Peterson with Abe in tow.
The world is changing. As Eve tries to prevent a war between humans and robots, Will struggles to control his nanobots and his feelings for Lily, and Mary plots revenge from beyond the grave...
Eve contracts a software virus which activates her latent ability to dream.
