【选段台词】

[Neo-Seoul, the year 2144]

Archivist：Ordinarily, I begin by asking prisoners to recall their earliest memories to provide a context for the corpocratic historians of the future.

Sonmi：Fabricants have no such memories, Archivist. One twenty-four hour cycle in Papa Song's is identical to every other.

Archivist：May I say you speak consumer surprisingly well.

Sonmi：Unanimity's a... 

（Sonmi~451 begins speaking Korean) 

Machine：(It is unfortunate that the officials of the Unanimity can only speak one language.)

Archivist：As an officer of Unanimity, I am of course restricted from using sub-speak.

Sonmi：Of course.

Archivist：Please describe a typical twenty-four hour Papa Song cycle.

Sonmi：At hour four, each server is awoken by auto-stimulin. From revival, we proceed to the hygiener. After dressing we file into the dinery. At hour five, we man our stations to greet the new day's consumers.

All servers：Welcome to Papa Song's.

Sonmi：For the next nineteen hours we input orders, tray food, vend drinks, upstock condiment, wipe tables, and bin garbage. all done in strict adherence to First Catechism.

Archivist：What is the First Catechism?

Sonmi："Honor thy consumer." After the final cleaning, we imbibe one Soapsac, then return to our sleep box. That is the blueprint of every single day.

Archivist：Did you ever think about the future?

Sonmi：Papa Song servers have just one possible future.

Archivist：You mean, Xultation? Could you describe this annual Rite of Passage?

Sonmi：On first day, Seer Rhee would stamp a star on each of our collars. Twelve stars meant an end to our contract. 

Archivist：How did you feel when you watched one of your sisters ascend?

Sonmi：Excitement. I was happy for them, but envious as well.

Archivist：Did your sister servers feel as you did?

Sonmi：Most of them.
