Unbeknownst to humans, a technologically sophisticated society of Martians lives below the surface of Mars. Their Supervisor, while observing Earth, sees a mother persuading her son, Milo, to do his chores. The Martians decide to bring her to Mars, where her "mom-ness" will be extracted and implanted into the next generation of nanny-bots.
