A throttle control button is strapped on its right wrist.

Dr. Killro is assisted by TWO SCIENTIST ROBOTS...

ROBOT #1 is a female mannequin with a fixed smile and modified body joints to allow movement.

ROBOT #2 is a hybrid between a ventriloquist dummy and a unicycle with a mechanical brain encased in transparent glass.

Both of them are holding oversized flight tracking computer tablets.

DR. KILLRO:     Commence test flight.

After a second of metallic whizzing, Robot #1 begins the countdown.

ROBOT #1:     Eight...seven...six...five...four ...three...two...one!

The pilot robot presses the throttle control button.
