The first three-fourths of the story is a monologue: a Terminator-like killer robot with human emotions tells us the story of his life. He formerly worked for Aku, but stopped because of his emotions and because he felt in love with a little dog.
But Aku kidnapped his dog and forces him to fight against Jack if he wants to see it again. He is tracking Jack and he is finally destroyed by the samurai His last words are for his puppy and Jack looks sadly at him. Then there is a close-up of his car and the last image of the episode is a photo of the dog.

Samurai Jack has no dialogue at all in this episode. Kind of fitting, since this episode had reletively nothing to do with him.

X9
Referencing XJ9 (Jenny Wakeman) from the Nickelodeon hit series My Life as a Teenage Robot. (edit) Scientists:
Among Aku's evil scientists are passable copies of Dr. Robotnik from Sonic the Hedgehog (one in the lineup; he has hair on his head and is a little short, but otherwise looks like Ivo), Dr. Wily from the Megaman series (he was wearing a welding mask, but the trademark Wily moustache and hair were visible), and Dr. Forrester from Mystery Science Theater (the one who gave X9 the emotion chip) (edit)
