I always concentrated more on the context: the replica "is playing up
again" i.e. malfunctioning as a toaster or auto might. Thus, he has an
android replica of his girlfriend which, due to a bad line of code or a
crossed wire, goes "ohhhhhh Nik" during intimate moments. Kind of a
distracting bug...
