poor robo horsey :(

It's been awhile since we saw Hannelore's mother. So long that you notice they stylistic changes. I don't recall her eyes being pink, but I suppose she could've had some work done since then.
She's actually a robot mom Hanner's dad built to cover up the reality that [REDACTED]. Sadly, her dad is not good on parenting.
So, Hanners' Mom waited this long to assign her an assistant? And she's an Ellicott-Chatham? Doesn't this qualify as dereliction of fiduciary duty or somesuch, by being so careless and waiting so long?
I see that AI's are truly equal to humans in how they are treated by Hanalore's mom?
That horse is the stuff of nightmares...
Didn't Beatrice used to have green eyes?
Some of us can afford the upgrade.
Question: what assistance can Tilly supply that Wilson can not given he now has a humanoid body? Prior to the new body, I could see this being a need, now I can not see the need for a human assistant.
Wilson is a companion, not an assistant. Tilly, however, is on the payroll. Two completely different paradigms.
$1 says that she pays the horse to misbehave to make the experience authentic (and to give her a reason to use the teaser)
P.S. Excellent Kirby-like dynamic throwing arm on Hanners!
Waitasec...this is the 'meeting' that her mother was in from which she couldn't be disturbed? Quality control of of the warbeasts prior to the invasion?
Nope. Do not like her not one little bit!!
Maybe the horse is folding up into a briefcase? I can’t figure out what’s happening there at all.
Man! I really don't like Hannalore's mom, so much so, I'm making a couple monstrous assumptions about the horsey: (1) That the AI is an inmate in Robo-jail, and this is a similar deal to May's "personal assistant" thing with Dale when she was in slam. (2) That the AI's vocabulary has been restricted, at the request of Ms. Ellicott-Chatham, to horsey-noises. (Whether this is a limitation built into the horse body, or some form of software "muzzle", we don't know yet.)
I do hope one day this woman gets some form of karmic retribution
It could happen instantly, if she were thrown from her malfunctioning robo-horse and trampled by it. The horse wouldn't be at fault, as it was damaged by an unexpected electric shock believed to have been inflicted by the late heartless human imposter.
Okay, so we *really* don't like Mom, right? Right?!
:( Agreed, poor robo horse. But, what is it saying?
Was starting to sing the opening to the Lion King. "Maaaaaaaaaaants ingonyama bagithi Baba....."
Of course her mom would be doing dressage or something like that.
After all, what is dressage but...dancing for horses?
Tilly? Silly! Willy-nilly hill-billy? Maybe killy? Run of the milly? Milli-vanilli? Tilly, tilly bo-billy, banana-fana bo-billy. Fee-fi-fo filly. Tilly.
Hmmm. Does Mama Ellicott-Chatham have intimations of mortality? PS poor horse! Call the ASPC-AI!
I want a robo-horse :o
I thought she was in a meeting.
That's just what Hanners was told
Why are webcomic parents so shitty?!
Well adjusted families don't produce webcomic artists. [JOKE]
If humanoid robots see ungulates, what does a robot ungulate see when it smells tea?
Humanoids.
Wow, it's been a <i>decade</i> since we've seen Beatrice. She didn't stay gone long enough.
RoboCruelty is wrong. And that assistant is already helpful
Helpful how, by ordering a replacement for the phone that only got broken because she showed up?
Oh, this is so not going to end well.
She reminds me of Edina's secretary Bubble on Absolutely Fabulous somehow. (also robo horsey noooo)
With a name like Tilly, one would expect her to have a proper English diction.... but a killer accent like Bubble would be fun.
So graceful
Trusty
Only if it gets left out in the train.
Horsey was just trying to say "Maaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaate"
Is that horse an AI? Do I need to turn her in for AI abuse? WELL, DO I?!
That's awful, Thomas. I approve.
lol Tazer™ Horse.
I loved this new character from the first pic I saw of her but knowing her name and role I'm even MORE excited!
