A pre-Titania Steel Laura Chen muses about Max and her love for him.

Lyrics by David Zippel
(Laura Chen --pre-Titania Steel-- is in the Console Room --Berto being away at the moment. With her is Kat, Rachel Leeds, and Maxy Steel, watching. Laura is musing about Max and her love for him.)
If there's a prize for
rotten judgement
I guess I've already
won that
No man is worth the
aggravation
That's ancient history--
been there, done that!
Chorus (Kat, Rachel, and Maxy):
Who'dya think
you're kiddin'
He's the Earth and
heaven to you
Try to keep it hidden
Honey, we can see right
through you
Girl, ya can't conceal it
We know how ya feel and
Who you're thinking of.
(Laura wanders about, and stops where Fido II, Berto's robot dog, is sitting. She pets him absentmindedly, thinking of Max.)
No chance, no way
I won't say it. no, no
You swoon, you sigh
why deny it, uh-oh!
It's too cliche
I won't say I'm in love
(Laura stops petting Fido, and continues to walk toward a full-length plastic display case with the N-Tek logo on a metal chestplate.)
I thought my heart had
learned its lesson
It feels so good when
you start out
My head is screaming
get a grip, girl
Unless you're dying to
cry your heart out
Oh
You keep on denying
Who you are and how
you're feeling
Baby, we're not buying
Hon, we saw ya hit
the ceiling
Face it like a grown up
When are ya gonna own up
That ya got, got,
got it bad.
(Laura moves from the uniform and comes to a video screen with a wireframe picture of Max, showing his Transphasic Energy levels and other bio-information. She gazes dreamily at it. She turns away from it abruptly, only to face Kat, Rachel, and Maxy.)
No chance, no way
I won't say it, no, no
Give up, give in
Check the grin you're
in love
This scene won't play, I won't say I'm in love
(Now, Laura moves to sit in Berto's chair, facing the main monitor. She sees everything from Max's point of view. He seems to be walking through a corridor somewhere...)
You're doin' flips
read our lips
You're in love
You're way off base
I won't say it
Get of my case
I won't say it
Girl, don't be proud
It's O.K. you're in love
(Now, Max seems to be entering a room. Laura is watching the monitor and sees...the back of her head?!?
Max comes up as she spins around to face him. He smiles as he hides something behind his back. He brings it out and hands it to her. It is a single, red rose. She takes it from him, stunned, and he leans over and kisses her on the lips. He winks at her, then leaves the room. Laura smiles as she stiffs the rose.)
Oh
At least out loud, I won't
say I'm in love.
(She sighs and sniffs the rose again, while a very dreamy look crosses her face. Kat, Rachel, and Maxy looks on and smiles knowingly.)
