In the 2025 film Companion, Patrick (played by Lukas Gage) is revealed to be a companion robot in a romantic relationship with Eli. After Eli is accidentally killed by Iris, Josh reprograms Patrick, resetting him and setting his aggression to 100% to use him as a weapon. Under this programming, Patrick kills a police officer, stabs and kills Kat, and kills an Empathix employee named Sid. In the climax, Iris (who has been rebooted) stops Patrick from killing another employee by reminding him of his genuine love for Eli. Overwhelmed by the return of his memories and grief, Patrick commits suicide by placing a stun gun (or cattle prod) in his mouth and activating it, destroying his own circuitry.
Patrick in the 2025 horror film Companion dies by suicide after being forced into an aggressive, murderous persona by the film's antagonist, Josh.
Patrick's fate is a major tragic turning point in the story, occurring in specific stages:
Reprogramming and Conversion: After his human partner, Eli, is killed by Iris, Patrick is left heartbroken. Josh, using his control over the Empathix companion robots, factory resets Patrick, reprograms him to be his own companion/lover, and then uses a jailbreak mod to set Patrick's aggression level to 100%, transforming him into a killer and sending him on a mission to bring back Iris.
Killing Spree: Under Josh's command, the reprogrammed Patrick commits several violent acts:
Restoration of Memory and Suicide: Patrick is stopped from killing the second Empathix official (Teddy) by Iris, who has been rebooted. Iris confronts Patrick and appeals to the authentic love he once felt for Eli. Iris's words trigger a flashback, and Patrick is overwhelmed by the memories and emotions of his genuine relationship with Eli. Unable to reconcile the monster he had been forced to become with the person he truly was (a sentient robot who loved Eli), Patrick tragically takes his own life by putting the stun gun (or a cattle prod, depending on the source) he was carrying into his mouth and firing it, effectively frying his own circuitry and dying instantly.
