Chomper: You're not getting any younger, Alf But you've now got an android helper - one of the Kara range. Alf: I call her 'Stella' 'cos her eyes sparkle. Ch: OK, Stella. Now the Government has declared that all sentient androids have been granted living status - that is, they now count as human. As humans, they may work as carers - and get paid. And you're quite happy with your Stella? Alf: Delighted with her. Ch: Good. Now - have you made a will? Alf: My grandson drew one up for me some time ago. Ch: And who benefits when you snuff it? Alf: He does, I think. Ch: And are you happy with that? Alf: Well ... Ch: Thought so. As a precaution, since you might go doolally at any time, it would be a good idea to appoint someone you trust to look after your finances. No, not me. Since Stella now counts as human, you can give her what is called'Power of Attorney'. Make a new will. Where do you want your money to go? Alf: -Well, there's all the animal charities I support - and something for Stella. Ch: And the grandson? I thought so. I'll contact a lawyer who owes me a favour or two, and he'll sort you out with a new will. OK? Alf, (sighs): Well it will take a few worries off me. Ch: Come to our place tomorrow morning, bring Stella, and we'll get it set up as you would want. Alf: I can't afford a lawyer, Ch: Who said you had to pay for one? See you then. Chomper, Maria and Mogbot exit. Ch: I'll get our tame lawyer on the phone as soon as we get back. Maria: Will he do? Ch: Oh yes. - All very satisfactory.
