Emojis Corp. is a place where emojis are to be scanned and sent into Alex's textbox.
Story[]
Gene is an emoji, the son of two "Meh" emojis, Mel and Mary. Despite his parents attempts at raising him to be a "Meh", Gene is able to make multiple expressions. At first, his parents, especially his father, are hesitant of him going to work, but Gene insists, claiming that he will finally be normal and useful to society. In the human world, upon receiving a text from his crush Addie, Alex decides to send her an emoji. When Gene is selected, he panics, which makes his odd facial problems spring to life. After making a confusing expression before wrecking the text center, Gene is called in by Smiler, a smiley emoji, the self-claimed first emoji, and leader of the text center, who concludes that Gene is a "malfunction" and therefore must be deleted. Gene sinks into depression, going up to the top of the company building, where his parents, concerned for his safety, tell him that he should lock himself in their apartment until everybody almost forgets about what happened. Gene then accuses them of being embarrassed of him and, in a fit of anger, tells them that he isn't going to run away from what he did, instead going down to try to reason with the Board. He gets there as the board meeting ends, and nobody will tell him what was decided. Smiler calls him in, telling him that he doesn't have to worry about making that mistake again because he will be deleted. After calling the bots to delete him, Gene distracts them and manages to escape, but he is chased by Anti-virus bots.
Later, in the movie, Gene admits his feelings for Jailbreak, but she wishes to stick to her plan of venturing into the cloud, unintentionally causing Gene to revert to his apathetic programming out of heartbreak. The upgraded bot takes Gene, and Hi-5 and Jailbreak race after them on a Twitter bird summoned by Jailbreak. As Smiler prepares to delete Gene, Mel and Mary arrive and are also threatened. Jailbreak and Hi-5 arrive and disable the bot, which falls on top of Smiler. Alex has since taken his phone to the store and asks to have his phone erased to fix the problem. Out of desperation, Gene prepares to have himself texted to Addie, making numerous faces to express himself. Realizing that Addie received a text from him, Alex stops his phone from getting erased, saving the emoji and finally getting to speak with Addie. Gene accepts himself for who he is and is celebrated by all of the emojis while Poop returns to his job as CEO of the Cube after arresting Smiler.
