{{TB|You know, Database and those guys are into robots. I bet they could help you turn Chief Knockahomer into a real robot this time.}}
{{Tapped Out Bart Icon|Rolling Eyes}}
{{TB|Aw man, the nerds? I hate hanging around those guys. They smell weird. I can't put my finger on what it is.}}
{{Tapped Out Lisa Icon|Annoyed}}
{{TB|We prefer the term Academic-Americans, and that smell is fear.}}
{{Tapped Out Bart Icon|Curious}}
{{TB|Fear of what?}}
{{Tapped Out Lisa Icon|Sad}}
{{TB|Bullies, B's on tests, bench-warming splinters, and that's just the Bs.}}

{{TB|You're being boring!}}
{{Tapped Out Lisa Icon|Sad}}
{{TB|Amazing. That was the next fear on the list!}}
{{Tapped Out Bart Icon|Curious}}
{{TB|How can we find these Nerdulonic-Americans and see if they'll help us build a rumble-ready robot?}}

{{Tapped Out Lisa Icon|Annoyed}}
{{TB|That's because you just rode your skateboard around for four hours!}}
{{Tapped Out Lisa Icon|Suspicious}}
{{TB|Four hours exactly…which is oddly specific, now that I think about it.}}
{{Tapped Out Bart Icon|Annoyed}}
{{TB|Right, and you timing me wasn't weird at all. So did you find the nerds?}}

{{Tapped Out Database Icon|Happy}}
{{TB|While clutching its textbooks to its chest in classic nerd style — and avoiding eye contact in a range of 360 degrees!}}
{{Tapped Out Lewis Clark Icon|Happy}}
{{TB|And look what happens when you give it a "flat tire": it auto-cringes, rights itself, and mumbles an apology!}}
{{Tapped Out Martin Icon|Happy}}
{{TB|Suck eggs, Boston Dynamics!}}
{{Tapped Out Bart Icon|Rolling Eyes}}
{{TB|LAME.}}
{{Tapped Out Bart Icon|Happy}}
{{TB|But you know what's cool? Robots that can fight!}}
{{Tapped Out Martin Icon|Surprised}}
{{TB|{{*}}gasp{{*}} But building fighting robots would violate the code of robot ethics we all swore to uphold!}}
{{Tapped Out Cosine Tangent Icon|Sad}}
{{TB|Yes, we've found that the use of violence inevitably results in said violence being used on us.}}
{{Tapped Out Bart Icon|Annoyed}}
{{TB|Right. And you all must have signed this lame code of ethics AFTER you helped me build the Wedgie-Matic 6000.}}
{{Tapped Out Lewis Clark Icon|Sad}}

{{TB|Well, yes sir. With the plebeians. But don't you think you're above that?}}
{{Tapped Out Mr. Burns Icon|Happy}}
{{TB|Piffle! Mechanical pugilists are a time-honored tradition. I myself went three rounds against a Pneumatic Irishman while I was at Yale. }}

{{Tapped Out Mr. Burns Icon}}
{{TB|Ah, so just a robot bear, you say?}}
{{Tapped Out Smithers Icon|Excited}}
{{TB|It is the most fearsome killer robot on the face of the earth, sir.}}
{{Tapped Out Mr. Burns Icon|Thinking}}
{{TB|And yet I'm disappointed. Curious.}}
{{Tapped Out Mr. Burns Icon|Sleepy}}
{{TB|Have him put it in the corner, where it will remind me of my disappointment in you, Smithers.}}
{{Tapped Out Homer Icon|Guilty}}
{{TB|I just need you to sign here, here, and intial here.}}
{{Tapped Out Mr. Burns Icon|Shocked}}
