the little girl and the robot

Little Girl: What are you doing here? Robots shouldn’t be in tales…


Robot: Why not?


Little Girl: Robots are evil and they destroy things.


Robot: Ah, right then. Which way is the exit?


Little Girl: I don’t know.


Robot: Hmm. Then can I come with you until we find it?


Little Girl: I guess. Maybe you can help me with my dream.


Robot: What’s that?


Little Girl: I want to be famous.


Robot: What’s that?


Little Girl: It’s when people know your name.


Robot: What’s your name?


Little Girl: Lil.


Robot: Ok Lil. That’s it? Are you famous now?


Little Girl: Well, umm, no. When you’re famous you get to go to fancy restaurants, and eat.


Robot: What’s that?


Little Girl: When you put stuff in your mouth.


Robot: Sounds disgusting.


Little Girl: It really isn’t. Well, except broccoli.


Robot: What’s that?


Little Girl: It’s very small green trees you have to eat so you can grow bigger.


Robot: Do you have any?


Little Girl: God, no. Sooo, what do you do?


Robot: I don’t know.


Little Girl: What’s your name? That might help you get started.


Robot: I don’t know.


Little Girl: Didn’t your mother tell you that?


Robot: Well, she said “B”.


Little Girl: Bee? You don’t look like a bee to me. Didn’t she say anything else?


Robot: She got unplugged.


Little Girl: What’s that? Oh, wait, I know. It’s when bands sing their usual songs, but worse. People seem to like it, but it’s probably just to be nice to them so they will sing them right the next time.


Robot: Ah.


Little Girl: Maybe she didn’t say “bee”. She must have said “be”, like “let there be light”.


Robot: Yes, she said “B”.


Little Girl: I knew it!


Robot: Does that make me famous too?


Little Girl: Perhaps. Or then again she might have said “beep”, but didn’t have time to finish it.


Robot: What’s “beep”?


Little Girl: Oh, I can’t say that in front of the kids.
