THE SHIP-YARD CREW
THE FOREMAN
Salutes every machine that enters the yard. Occasionally boxes them. Believes everything can be fixed with a bigger battery.
GRANDMA'S LAB
Chief verdict officer. Inspects every claim with a magnifier and stamps it REAL, CHEAT, or VERIFIED. Her word is final.
THE SUBJECT
A sparring robot with nobody home. Copies whatever the Foreman does, half a second late. The most beloved employee.
