Ruby: Penny, I-I don't understand...
Penny: Most girls are born, but I was made. I'm the world's first synthetic person capable of generating an Aura. (Turns her head to the side sadly.) I'm not real...
Rex: (Taking Penny's hands in her own.) Penny. You are real. You're just a normal girl with cool robot parts.
Ruby: Rex's right. You think just because you've got nuts and bolts instead of squishy guts makes you any less real than us?
Penny: I don't... um... (Leans in close to their faces.) You two are... taking this extraordinarily well.
Ruby: You're not like those things we saw back there. (Taps her chest.) You've got a heart, and a soul; I can feel it!
Penny: Ooohh... oh Ruby! Rex! (Grabs Rex and Ruby into a hug and shakes them back and forth.) You're the best friends anyone could have!
Rex: (Straining) Don't mention it, Ginger!
Ruby: (Muffled groaning.) I can see why your father would want to protect such a delicate flower!
Penny: (Releases them, fully back to her happy self.) Oh, he's very sweet! My father's the one that built me! I'm sure you would love him!
Rex: Wait, you're father wouldn't happen to be Dr. Pietro Polendina?
Penny: (Gasps excitedly) That is correct. How did you know my father, Rex?
