A father with blond hair gives two enthusiastic thumbs-up to his red-haired daughter (seen from behind) and a blond robot boyfriend he built for her, saying, "Sweetie, I know you couldn't get a date for the prom, so I designed you a robot boyfriend who is programmed to love you no matter what." The robot, in a green shirt with a freckled face, begins politely - "Hello Amy. Would you do me the honor of -" then recoils in disgust: "EWWW! Is there a FACE somewhere under all that ACNE?!" A caption explains: "I was later made aware that Amy had just gotten off the phone with her new prom date," implying the supposedly unconditional robot is reacting to her insulted by being designed for someone who already found a real date. Votey: a close-up of a man's flat, unimpressed face with the words "ANSWER PLEASE."
