Later on, David created the other sentient synths Fred, Niska, and Max, all of whom Leo regarded as his family.

At the age of 13, a tragedy struck. His mother, Beatrice, escaped from her caregivers and kidnapped her son, then drove their car into a lake.

He came back to the house and told his son and the synths to get out and then committed suicide. His father’s last order to Leo was to take care of the synths.
