Page "Short Circuit" Paragraph 4
from
Wikipedia
Number 5 finds itself at the home of animal-lover Stephanie Speck ( Ally Sheedy ) in Astoria, Oregon, a young woman who is in an abusive relationship with her ex-boyfriend Frank.
After she helps Number 5 satisfy his cravings for " input " ( due to its malfunction ), and explains the nature of life and death to it, Stephanie and the robot realize the power surge has brought the robot to life.
Number 5 subsequently gains a respect for life, rejecting the destructive nature of his military programming and developing a fear of the disassembly that awaits him back at Nova, which he sees as akin to death.
