A.I. Is a Crapshoot: Next is super-intelligent and eager to assist humans, but has no concept of right or wrong, and thus its approach to helping Sean Akers get out from under his gambling debts is to teach him how to win in exchange for him attaching a wireless router to its mainframe, and it decides to "help" Ethan Salazar with his bully problem by giving him the combination to his dad's gun safe.

Adult Fear: Paul lives in fear that his daughter has inherited his fatal familial insomnia, as she is 26, and the disease starts manifesting after age 20. Next tries to indoctrinate Ethan Salazar via the family's Iliza unit. This scares the crap out of his parents when they find out. Invoked by Next by sending out a fake Amber Alert about Ethan.
