[Herb has just been running through the town, yelling "I'm going to be a dad!" and runs into his house, where Mrs. Copperbottom is standing next to a window]
Mrs. Copperbottom : Oh, honey, I'm so sorry. You missed the delivery.
Herb Copperbottom : Oh!
Mrs. Copperbottom : [holds up a box with a picture of a robot on it] But it's okay. Making the baby's the fun part.
-
Mr. Copperbottom : He's got your moms eyes and my dads nose. I knew we were smart to save those parts.
-
Mrs. Copperbottom : I told you I'd find him! It's a mother's instinct.
Herb Copperbottom : What instinct? He left us a note, "I'm leaving, I'll be at the train station."

[after they have assembled Rodney]
Mrs. Copperbottom : Honey?
Mr. Copperbottom : What?
Mrs. Copperbottom : What's that extra piece?
Mr. Copperbottom : Oh. Oh, no, they always put in an extra...
[Takes a good look at the piece]
Mr. Copperbottom : [chuckles] We did want a boy, right?
[He takes the piece and a hammer]
Mr. Copperbottom : This won't hurt a bit, son.
[He hammers the piece in, Rodney cries]

Mr. Gunk : COPPERBOTTOM!
[Wonderbot, Rodney and Herb reacts to him]
Herb Copperbottom : Mr. Gunk!
Mr. Gunk : What is that?
Herb Copperbottom : Oh, that... My son made it.
Mr. Gunk : What's it doing?
Rodney Copperbottom : Mr. Gunk, please! You're making it nervous!
[Wonderbot goes crazy, wrecking the plate and crashes it, wrecking the pots]
Mr. Gunk : It's wrecking my kitchen!
[crashes and grabs the Axe]
Mr. Gunk : I'll stop it!
Rodney Copperbottom : NO!
[grabs his ankle and he fells into the oil]
Mr. Gunk : Your son, huh!
Rodney Copperbottom : It wasn't his fault! He had nothing to do with!
Herb Copperbottom : Yes, sir. He's a brilliant boy, an inventor.
Mr. Gunk : [points to him] You, clean up this mess!
[to Rodney, points to him]
Mr. Gunk : And YOU! GET OUT! Inventor. You're the hand-me-down son of a dishwasher, and that's all you'll ever be! Somebody scrape this crud off of me. And serve it to the customers.
