Seer Ree is a “pureblood” human who manages the fabricants at a location of the restaurant Papa Song’s, where Sonmi~451 and Yoona~393 live. He doesn’t seem to enjoy his life—his wife openly cheats on him, and he often gets intoxicated on Soap, a substance that wipes the memories of the replicant workers. Seer Ree eventually overdoses on Soap in an apparent suicide, introducing Sonmi to the concept of death. Seer Ree shows how in a hyper-consumerist society, life isn’t necessarily much better for the managers than for the workers.
