• Diverse cast of characters? No
• Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes

3.5

This short story was part of the Amazon Prime shorts and while I generally enjoyed the previous stories, this one kinda left a meh bland taste. Giving a sad man's woe is me tale of why the woman in his life left him and took the dog. But the premise of the story also lingers in the mind because it is so close to being our reality, being able to genetically engineer (if you have the money) your progeny to give them the best life that you can pay for.  Creepy.

3.5 for the story, but 4 for memorability.
