The idea of a beneficent Genie that can bring you whatever you ask is an age-old story. Can A.I. or technology be pushed that far? Stevereeno Adamson, a childish and demanding trillionaire, is about to find out having bought for himself The M.A.K.E.R., a robot to do just that. However, rather than finding his looked-for Happiness, Stevereeno is placed in one comical and/or ridiculous situation after another until he must find his own way to happiness.
