Plot

Three years after the events of Blade Runner,^[3] the Tyrell Corporation has developed the new Nexus-8 line of replicants. The models possess open-ended lifespans, like those of humans. Unrest ensues. A replicant named Trixie, is assaulted by human thugs. She is rescued by Iggy, a replicant ex-soldier from the planet Calanthe, who deserted after he learned that the enemy were also replicants. He recruits Trixie into an underground freedom replicant movement which sets out to sabotage Tyrell's database and internet tracking, so that replicants cannot be so easily hunted.

Trixie then befriends Ren, a sympathetic human technician in charge of launching nuclear missiles. He agrees to redirect a test missile to detonate over Los Angeles. This will black out the city and, with an electromagnetic pulse, wipe out all electronic data. Trixie and Iggy set out to physically destroy the Tyrell Corporation's servers. Trixie dies in the attempt but the mission succeeds. Servers powering the internet are destroyed and power to Los Angeles is disabled, permanently. Iggy escapes. He removes his right eye, which can identify him as a replicant.

A global collapse follows. All replicant production scientific activity ends. Tyrell goes bankrupt. The Wallace Corporation acquires Tyrell and restarts production of a new model a decade later.
