My Life as a Teenage Robot: The Movie/Quotes

Jenny "XJ-9" Wakeman

 * Note to self, ask mom to make my metal stomach digest lactose.
 * The mall? But, my mom said to never make any contact with the human population.

Brad Carbunkle

 * Trust me, Jennifer, the Tremorton mall is huge! It's even got it's own theme park.

Dialogue

 * Nora Wakeman: XJ-9? (Jenny hears and runs into her closet off-screen)
 * Nora: (Nora opens the door angry). It seems that some young robot has forgotten the rules of this household. You were built and designed for only one purpose only, to be the secret protector of the planet, Earth, and mobile unit for the home's Emergency Worldwide Crisis Control Center. When the center detects trouble in the world, you are permitted to leave the house only in secret. Unless you're out saving the world, you should stay in your room. You also must stay hidden away from the existence of the human population, especially teenagers!
 * (Nora opens the closet where Jenny was hiding in).
 * Nora: Do I make myself clear, XJ-9?
 * XJ-9/Jenny: It's Jenny, mom.
 * Nora: What?
 * Jenny: Jenny! I prefer to be called Jenny, because I changed my name to that! Okay?
 * Nora: Ugh!
 * Jenny: Well, where's the trouble anyway? All I get to do is stay in this room my whole life, and only get to go out to prevent minor chaos to the planet? So I left my room just to try and give a ball back to a kid, do you hear any alarms going off? No! What about those C-class asteroids you keep telling me to destroy? Why should I go out stopping them? They just burn up in the atmosphere leaving nothing but a tiny rock.
 * Nora: But XJ-Ni-
 * Jenny: Jenny!
 * Nora: Right, right right right.
 * Jenny: Why can't I just go live in the world like normal teenagers do? Would anybody knowing my existence lead to the government taking me hostage and experimenting with me? Everyday, it's always the same message to me every morning! (Plays recording while taking and wearing her mom's glasses). XJ-9, good morning! Be sure to check the Control Center for any crisis, but be back before 12:45 P.M., and don't let any human see you! (normal voice). And all I get to do to know people is online, with a blog only? That is so low-class! I wanna have real friends, and hang out like every other teenager in Tremorton. But not that anyone would wanna hang out with an ugly super-powered hunk of metal like me. (uses laser to destroy mirror).
 * Nora: Oh, honey, I understand how you feel. Your powers are still developing, and it's still bound to be a confusing time. But, when you get a little bit older, you'll finally see things my way. Now be a good robot and check those monitors.
 * Jenny: Yes, mom.
 * Nora: That's my XJ-9.
 * Jenny: My name is Jenny.
 * (Jenny sighs while she walks to her record player).
 * Jenny: I just wish someone would understand how I feel.
 * Brad: I wish so too.
 * Jenny: Huh? (Jenny turns around to see Brad gone, she walks and closes the window, and plays an Enigma record, which is Out From The Deep).

   
 * (Brad is outside of the Wakeman residence looking through Jenny's window).
 * Brad: Okay, that's the robot, she must be charging. Hmm... If I can just... (Brad silently opens the window). Bingo!
 * (Brad jumps in her room, and bangs his head).
 * Brad: Augh! (loudly).
 * Jenny: (Wakes up). Wha-? (Activates built-in flashlight on head) Who's there? Show yourself!
 * (Jenny is shocked to see Brad in her room).
 * Jenny: Oh-
 * Brad: My-
 * Jenny & Brad: God!
 * (Jenny and Brad walk close to each other).
 * Jenny & Brad: I-I don't believe it!
 * Jenny: A real-life teenager! (with Brad).
 * Brad: A real-life robot! (with Jenny).
 * Jenny & Brad: Whoa! Look at that! And those! And that hair! (laughs).
 * Nora: XJ-9?
 * Jenny: Uh-oh! Hide!
 * (Nora opens the door and turns on the light switch, where she finds Jenny on her bed up, and Brad is gone).
 * Nora: XJ-9, what was that noise?
 * Jenny: It was... Uh..., My text-to-speech program. I use it whenever I feel lonely.
 * Nora: (suspicious). Hmm... (Jenny looks nervous). (now neutral). All right dear, but you should be in bed right now.
 * Jenny: Okay, mom.
 * Brad: Who was that?
 * Jenny: That was my mom, Noreen Wakeman. She doesn't like me making contact with humans, but, she doesn't understand. My name's Jenny, by the way, but my mom prefers to call me XJ-9.
 * Brad: Well, I'm Brad Carbunkle, my little brother Tuck said that you scared him. Is that true?
 * Jenny: I heard a shattering downstairs and discovered that it was a ball that belonged to him, but, I didn't mean to scare him.
 * Brad: Oh, alright. Cool room by the way. (looks at DJ Mala poster). You into Mala's music?
 * Jenny: Yeah, he's pretty cool. I mean, he's long gone now, but his music is still hot!
 * Brad: (looks at Enigma records). Enigma? Those guys were wicked!
 * Jenny: I know! It's almost like we were long lost adoptive cousins with so much in common. Do you also have a blog while posing as an anonymous user like me?
 * Brad: Yeah!
 * Jenny: What about having real friends to hang out with?
 * Brad: That too!
 * Jenny: I know! I mean, I'd like you to stay, but, it's kinda late and my mom might come back up here.
 * Brad: Alright. I hope I get to see you again tomorrow.
 * Jenny: Wait, uh... (gives Tuck's baseball back to Brad). I believe this belongs to Tuck.
 * Brad: Thanks, Jen.
 * Jenny: Hold it. You might also wanna give him this. (hands him a photo of her and Nora, under it is a label that says, "XJ-9's First Boot Up 01/05/2066") It's a photo copy of my Mom and me, when I first booted up. I figured you might wanna show this to Tuck.
 * Brad: Thanks.
 * Brad: So, I overheard you saying something about a, "metal stomach". Is that true?
 * Jenny: Yeah! My mom gave it to me so I could experience what eating's like, the only problem is that it's lactose-intolerable.
 * Brad: Well, since you have a metal stomach, here is...
 * [Brad puts down a huge burger on a tray in front of Jenny].
 * Brad: …The Mega Sized Joey Burger! They say nobody's ever eaten it fully before, but since you have a metal stomach, I'll bet you can finish it, Jenny!
 * Jenny: You bet I will!
 * Nora: XJ-9!!! (furious)
 * (Nora comes out of her car angry at Jenny).
 * Nora: Young lady, I cannot believe you! What is the meaning of this?!
 * Jenny: Mom, it's-
 * Nora: No buts, young lady! Or should I say, soon-to-be dismantled robot!
 * Jenny: What?
 * Nora: Did you really think I wouldn't know about any of your current activity. I had accessed your memory after I discovered your holographic fake you put in your room. Encountering the human population, using a disguise to fit in, opening a bank account without my permission, even leaving your own room?! I tried to warn you but you didn't listen! You have left me no choice! I am going to dismantle you permanently!
 * Jenny: But Mom, you can't just-
 * Nora: (grabs Jenny and drags her to her car). I said no buts! I will wipe everyone's memory of your existence, and you will never see the light of day or the dark of night ever again!
 * Dean Richardson: Now just wait a minute here! (Nora stops for a moment) Are you the, Noreen Wakeman, former scientist for the Skyway Patrol?
 * Nora: Wait. How do you know that?
 * Dean: Don't be ridiculous, I have read almost every magazine featuring you on the front cover. Are you saying Jenny, or, XJ-9 as you call her, is one of your creations?
 * Nora: Indeed, it is, but you will forget all abo-
 * Mall Performer: Hey! I recognize that girl, she's the girl that gave me a cheque of 7-k that I used to open my own record label, and the girl I saw busting out sick moves at the arcade!
 * Brit: And I recognize that deviant girl from the mall that I never knew was a robot.
 * Tiffany: Yeah! I even overheard that girl talking about some, "Metal Stomach", which could possibly explain why she was the first person to ever finish a Mega Sized Joey Burger. Though, to be honest, we'll make an exception just this once.
