Simon Polk (Creator/CedricHardwicke) is an inventor. His niece Barbara (Constance Ford) can't stand him, particularly since he constantly nags her for hot chocolate. However, as he notes, she keeps waiting on him in hopes of gaining his wealth after he dies. While she does indeed become heir to his estate, the will has some very strict conditions, one of which is caring for an undisclosed robot Simon created before his death. Thinking nothing of it, Barbara decides to go along with it; however, as she interacts with the robot, she finds it increasingly taking on the traits of her dead uncle, right down to his habits, personality, and eventually his movements and voice. Since Mr. Schwimmer shows up regularly, as per the will's stipulations, Barbara realizes that the only way to inherit Simon's fortune is to continue looking after his property. ''Especially'' the robot.

* SpitefulWill: Simon Polk's will to his niece Barbara is one of these when examined in detail: him leaving his fortune to Barbara is dependent OnOneCondition that is designed to make her life an everlasting Hell and it will either drive her insane, turn her into a despondent zombie, kill herself in depression, or leave -- [[FinancialAbuse without a single penny to her name]]. If Barbara had not killed Simon and thus made it LaserGuidedKarma, it would be even more awful to behold.
