As they investigate escalating crimes, the duo navigates a society grappling with profound questions about identity, consciousness, and the very definition of what it means to be human in an increasingly technological world. The series offers a thoughtful examination of societal anxieties surrounding advanced technology, presented within a grounded and suspenseful crime procedural framework.
